***************************************************************************


The next week, Harry tried repetitively to talk to Draco, but he was constantly around Blaise or Pansy. It seemed impossible to get him on his own.

Thursdays potion lesson did not turn out to be any more of an opportunity. Draco ignored Harry and concentrated on the potion at hand. Harry also noticed that he seemed to be watching Blaise closer than was normal.

Blaise and Michael were busy making their potion. Blaise was not so subtly touching Michael more than was necessary. He\'d taken Draco\'s words to heart and was being more of the Slytherin he\'d been raised to be. Michael was looking a Blaise in a confused way when he would turn away. Near the end of class, Blaise laid his hand on Michaels thigh, carefully. He didn\'t say anything and pretended he wasn\'t doing anything. Michael looked alarmed, but at that moment, Snape dismissed the class.

Harry hadn\'t gotten any type of opportunity to talk to Draco, so he figured he might as well take matters into his own hands. The following day, after dinner, Harry was walking back to the dormatories. He spotted Malfoy standing in the entrance hall with Blaise. They seemed deep in conversation. Harry walked past then started put his plan into action.

\"Malfoy! What did you say about my mother!?\" He yelled. Malfoy looked up with a questioning look. Harry gave him look and Draco seemed to comprehend.

\"Are you hard of hearing, Potty? I said she was a poor mudblood who deserved to die.\" Malfoy sneered at Harry, who took aim with his wand. His spell flew past Malfoy\'s ear and ricocheted off the wall behind him. It hit a first year and she squeaked and fell over. Draco threw a spell at Harry who dodged it. Harry looked over and saw McGonagal running over, looking furious. He raised his eyebrows at Malfoy as a signal.

Malfoy sent a spell straight at Harry and his legs gave way. He\'d hit him with his own crippling curse. Harry smirked and sent a spell at Malfoy. It hit him just as McGonagal burst through the door. She looked enraged.

\"What are you doing!? Potter! Malfoy! Another detention I think, tomorrow, same time.\" She left in a huff to help the first year to the hospital wing.

Ron and Hermione pushed through the crowd to Harry\'s side. Hermione preformed the counter curse and Harry was pulled to his feet by Ron.

\"Where is he!?\" Ron snarled. \"Bloody Slytherin! I\'m going to kill him. So much for being your friend, Harry.\" Draco had dissappeared with Blaise to the dungeons.

\"No, he just has problems. Really Ron, you\'ve got to trust me, he\'s okay.\" Ron gave him a distrustful look but remained quiet. Hermione gave Harry a calculating look but also remained silent to Harry\'s great relief.

***

Saturday night arrived and Harry tried to be on time for the detention, but he never could quite manage to be on time. He tore in 5 minutes late. McGonagal dave him a disapproving look from behind her spectacles. Malfoy smirked at him from behind her.

She took their wands and instructed them to have civilized conversation. Then she left the room and Draco continued to smirk at Harry.

\"So, Potter, is there a reason you found it necessary to spend another night in this torture, or are you simply a massochist?\"

Harry ignored the question.

\"You\'ve been avoiding me all week,\" He pointed out. Malfoy sneered.

\"Wrong, Potter. As always you\'ve come to the wrong conclusion.\"

\"Then why\'d you kiss me?\" Harry asked. Malfoy\'s expression didn\'t change from his sneer. He slid of the table and looked at Harry.

\"That\'s something you\'ll never know, Potter.\"

Suddenly two cups of steaming hot chocolate appeared on the desk with a note. Harry went over and picked up the note. McGonagal\'s handwriting was scrawled across the parchment. it read,

\"Here is some cocoa for your detention tonight, drink up.\"

\"Oh, good, she put in the big marshmellows, I hate the mini ones.\" Draco found this incredibly cute and almost grinned as Harry brought over him a cup. He caught himself though and took a sip, Harry did as well.

As they put down the cups the writing on the note changed and Harry bent over to read as it scrawled a sentence.

\"Congratulation Boys! The cocoa was spiked with veritaserum, have a pleasant evening,\" Harry read. Then looked up horrified at Draco, who looked just as horrified.

Harry\'s horror soon turned to mischievious thoughts. He could find out anything about Draco and nothing could stop him. Draco looked extremely worried as Harry grinned at him.

\"Don\'t you dare, Potter,\" He warned.

\"What?\" Asked Harry in a deceptively innocent voice and a suppressed grin. Draco narrowed his eyes dangerously.

\"You know damn well what. You are delerious if you think I\'m going to answer your questions.\" Harry smirked and licked his lips.

\"What\'s your favorite color?\" He asked quickly.

\"Blue.\" Malfoy blurted out.

\"Ha!\" Harry yelled, jubilantly. Malfoy glared at him with pure hatred. \"So, Malfoy, why\'d you kiss me?\"

Malfoy tried to clap a hand over his mouth, but it opened anyway and words streamed out.

\"Because you are probably the hottest guy I\'ve ever seen and you have the greenest eyes, and I--mphmlmphpmh.\" Malfoy stuffed his hand over his mouth to stop the words that kept coming out, and all Harry heard was a muffled noise.

\"You\'ll pay for that, Potter,\" Malfoy snarled. Harry looked at him in alarm as he realized that Malfoy also had the power.

\"What? No!\"

\"Oh yes, Potter.\" Malfoy had regained his smirk. \"Tell me, who do you think about when you wank off?\"

\"You,\" said Harry before he could stop himself. His eyes widened in shock as he realized what\'d he\'d said. Malfoy smirked even harder and his silver eyes glittered.

\"Really? I wouldn\'t have figured you would have that good of taste.\" Harry gave Malfoy a dirty look. He had a sudden inspiration. He strode towards Malfoy and crushed their lips together.

Malfoy was surprised but didn\'t show it. He put a hand around Harry\'s neck and ran his hands into the raven hair. He pulled Harry closer and slipped his tongue into Harry\'s mouth and massaged his tongue. Harry moaned in pleasure, Malfoy\'s tongue piercing made an incredible sensation in his mouth. Harry put his arms around Draco\'s slender waist and was rewarded with a nip on his lip and an appreciative groan.

Draco ran his tongue over Harry\'s lower lip then pulled slowly away. Harry made a noise of loss and regret as Draco pulled away. Draco leaned back and smirked in a very satisfied way.

\"Well, Potter, didn\'t know you had it in you.\" Harry, who had expected something better, stared at Malfoy.

\"That\'s it!? Fuck, Malfoy! Didn\'t you feel anything?\"

\"Of course I did, Potter. Why do you think I\'ve been watching you all fucking year!?\" Malfoy\'s mouth dropped open in shock as he heard himself. \"Shit!\" He exclaimed.

\"You\'ve what?\" Asked Harry, unsure of what that meant.

\"I\'ve been watching you all year.\" Draco was appalled that he couldn\'t stop his mouth.

\"Why?\" Harry ventured.

\"Are you that dense, Potter? You are incredibly hot and you seem like someone I could see myself with.\" He glared at Harry. \"But I hate you for making me say that.\"

\"I didn\'t make you say anything, that would be the veritaserum.\"

\"Stop being a smart ass, Potter. I hate you.\"

\"No, you don\'t. You just admitted it.\"

\"I didn\'t say I liked you, I just said you were hot.\"

\"And you could see yourself with me. Do you mean like in a relationship?\"

\"Yes.\" Draco didn\'t try to cover his mouth this time. \"You\'re right, I don\'t hate you. In fact for the past two years I\'ve noticed how gorgeous you are and have been investing in efforts to get you.\"

Harry was at a loss for words. He\'d never realized Malfoy felt that way. Granted he had to admit that he\'d always been attracted to Malfoy, even when they were on opposite sides, but the actual possibility of something happening was an exciting prospect.

\"Are you going to say anything, or are you going to continue looking like a fish out of water, which, may I add, does nothing for your appearance.\"

\"I...You...Are you saying you want to start something?\" Harry asked.

\"Yes. Damn this truth serum!\" He cursed.

Harry smiled at him and drew him into a soft kiss. It soon turned into a hungry kiss as they explored each others mouth. Draco\'s hands roamed over Harry\'s tanned and toned torso eliciting a groan from Harry. Draco pulled him closer and moved from Harry\'s mouth to the soft flesh of his neck. Harry moaned as Draco pulled on his earlobe and licked and sucked. His hands were in Draco\'s hair, messing up the perfectly styled locks.

Harry pulled away from him and Draco gave him a questioning look.

\"I have an idea,\" he said.

\"Ooh, an idea man, I like that,\" Draco purred, stroking Harry\'s chest under his shirt. Harry smiled at him.

\"I think it might be more fun to keep this secret,\" At Draco\'s look of doubt and unease, he added, \"just for awhile.\"

\"Wow, you really *should* have been in Slytherin.\" He remarked.

\"I\'ll take that as a compliment.\"

\"But it is a compliment, Potter. A very nice complement.\"

\"Wait, did Draco Malfoy just say something nice?\"

\"Don\'t be so shocked, Potter. I am capable of \'happy thoughts\' every once in awhile.\"

\"I know, you\'ve had many since the start of this detention.\"

\"Well, don\'t get to used to it. I\'m not under the influence of veritaserum all the time.\"

\"That\'s too bad. I rather enjoy this new Malfoy.\" Harry grinned at Draco. Draco smirked at Harry and leaned in to give him a soft kiss.

\"You\'ll have to get over it then, because I don\'t change that easily.\"

\"So, we\'re going to try this, then?\" Harry asked nervously. A relationship with Draco Malfoy was not exactly in the cards, but he was willing to try if it got Malfoy in his arms.

\"Yes, Potter. And I think we should be able to tell one person. Only one.\" Harry thought about it for a moment.

\"Okay, who\'re you gonna tell?\" He asked.

\"Blaise, you?\"

\"Hermione, she\'d figure it out anyway.\"

\"Yeah, Granger probably would with that brain of hers.\"

\"How are we going to do this?\" Harry was wondering how they would keep something like this a secret. Hermione might understand but Ron would explode when he found out.

\"We\'re going to sneak around and shag in unlikely places. I thought you knew what keeping a secret meant, Potter.\"

\"I do, I just meant...\" Harry trailed away, not knowing exactly how to articulate what he wanted to say. Draco gave him a rare true smile and leaned in close to Harry. His breath washed over Harry\'s lips.

\"I know what you meant.\" Harry\'s sparkling emerald green eyes found the dazzling silver orbs and knew Draco understood. Draco moved forward to kiss Harry, but just then the door was thrown open. Draco scrambled away from Harry.

McGonagal stood in the doorway with their wands.

\"I see you two enjoyed the cocoa.\" They both gave her reproachful looks. She smiled slightly and pulled a bottle out of her robes. \"Here\'s the antidote. I\'m sure you don\'t want to go around spouting the truth to anyone who asks.\"

Harry and Draco exchanged a look, \'does she know?\' They both took drinks of the antidote and were released.

When Harry arrived back in the common room, it was past midnight, but Hermione and Ron, predictably, were waiting for him to appear.

\"What happened? Did he attack you again? He is such a git, if Hermione hadn\'t stopped me, I would have--\" Ron made a punching gesture in the air and Harry rolled his eyes as he flopped into an arm chair.

\"Relax, Ron.\" Harry looked at his friend. \"Malfoy is fine, I\'ve already told you. I trust him, and you should too.\" Ron rolled his eyes at Harry as though he didn\'t understand.

\"But Harry, he attacked you today! What about that?\" Ron was determined to make Harry see reason.

\"He was just in a bad mood, it happens to everyone. I seem to recall a time when Ernie Macmillan ended up in the hospital wing with wings because you were in a bad mood.\" Ron blushed and turned away.

\"Yeah, well that was different.\"

\"How? You were just taking out your anger, so was Malfoy.\"

\"But Harry! It\'s *Malfoy* we\'re talking about here. He\'s hated us forever, and now he\'s suddenly nice? Come on!\"

\"Oh, Ron, just drop it, will you?\" Hermione finally spoke up from behind her copy of Ancient Runes. She set the book down and gave Ron a hard look. \"If Harry trusts him, I think we should too.\"

Ron huffed a little but didn\'t dare go against his girlfriend so he eventually shrugged and left the common room to go to bed.

\"Are you coming?\" He asked Harry.

\"In a bit,\" he replied. Ron went up the stairs, leaving Harry and Hermione alone in the deserted common room.

Hermione turned to Harry and fixed him with a pointed stare.

\"What really happened?\" She asked.

\"Malfoy and I are...kind of...a couple, sort of.\" Hermione didn\'t look surprised or even shocked at the news.

\"What are you two doing?\" She asked calmly.

\"We\'re going to keep it a secret for a while, so you can\'t tell anyone, not even Ron.\" Hermione scoffed.

\"Like I would tell Ron. He\'d go ballistic. So tell me, is Malfoy a good kisser?\"

Hermione!\" Harry had never heard her talk like this before.

\"What? Come on, I have to get some details if I have to keep this secret.\" Harry looked at his childhood friend and realized he wouldn\'t get out of it.

\"Alright, I\'ll give you the details, but this never leaves the room...\"
