Chapter 5: I wish I could show you how much I love you...

Draco didn\'t touch any food on the table, he was feeling sick...or at least thats what he thought. He had his head in his arms on the table when he felt a tapping at his shoulder. Draco looked up and saw Blaise the only person he could actually call a friend, staring at him with a worried look on his face.

\"Whats wrong Draco? Are you sick or something?\" Blaise asked resting a hand on the blonds shoulder. \"I don\'t know...I feel tingly.\" Draco replied looking into the brunette\'s eyes. \"Tingly? Where?\" Blaise questioned.

\"My stomach.\" Draco grumbled putting his head back into his arms. \"When did you start feeling sick?\" Blaise asked his eyebrows knitted together in confusion. \"I\'m not to sure, I think it started when I saw Potter...It felt like butterflies attacked my insides.\" Blaise\'s eyes slowly widened at this new found information, his worried expression changed into a smirk of mirth. \"What the fuck are you smiling at you pansy?\" Draco eyed him with suspicion.

\"Why Draco dear, I think I know what your problem is! I\'m not to sure if I should tell you here though. Too many people, and besides the walls have ears.\" Draco looked at Blaise as though he grew a second head. \"What the hell does telling me somewhere else have anything to do with this sickness?\" The blond asked raising a slender golden brow.

\"Believe me, if I told you right here, right now, you could hate me forever. Just please come with me to a more private place to speak.\" Draco sighed giving in, for all he knows what Blaise just said about hating him might be true. \"Okay, alright, lead the way.\" Blaise grinned and jumped up from the table standing next to Draco. The blond slowly rose from his seat and followed Blaise out of the Great Hall.

Meanwhile at the Gryffindor table...

\"Have you guys noticed anything different about Malfoy?\" Ron asked while watching Draco leave the Hall with Blaise, then sending his friends questioning glances. \"Not really, but he isn\'t calling us names that much lately.\" Hermoine stated, with a thoughtful expression on her face. Ron faced Harry.

\"How about you Harry, have you noticed any changes?\" Harry snorted. \"Besides not calling us names, no.\" He replied staring at the roll of bread on his plate. \"Okay, if you say so guys, but I think theres\' something fishy going on, and its not my breath...If your not going to eat that roll I will!\" Ron grinned at Harry then snatched the roll off of Harry\'s plate, and stuffed it in his mouth.

\"Ugh, Ron, please do learn manners, its quite gross watching you eat like that.\" Hermoine stated, her face contorted into a look of disgust. Harry smirked at his red headed friends eating habits. \"Hey, I\'m gonna go, gotta do that essay for Snape.\" The brunette said while standing. Hermoine smiled at the fact that he was going to do his homework. \"Okay, see you later!\" Ron and Hermoine said in unison, watching the retreating form of their friend.

\"WHAT?!?\" Draco shrieked at Blaise, forgetting his headache. The duo was outside standing close to the lake, by some random tree with twigs and berries growing on it\'s branches. \"Its okay, we all get these feelings.\" Blaise calmly stated while taking a berry off the tree sticking it in his mouth, and sucking it of its juices, then fixing to spit it out.

\"But Why POTTER of all people?! Surely its just a passing feeling, and please do swallow instead of spitting that thing out. I don\'t need to see that.\" Draco said confusion shining in his silver eyes. \"Your asking me why? You said that you felt it when you looked at Potter, I\'m sure this has happened more than once. \" The brunette smirked at his friends current state.

\"Believe what you want Blaise, but I for one, think that this is all plain bloody stupid. Your just pulling my leg.\" Draco said turning around, his back facing his friend. \"Say what you want too, but you know its true, come on admit it! I won\'t tell anyone.\" Blaise pouted, walking in front of the blond. \"Ugh, I don\'t have time for this, so I\'ll just take my leave.\" Draco stepped aside from Blaise and marched up to the Castle with his head held high. \'That bloody git...oh well he\'ll see his feelings for Harry someday.\' With that thought Blaise made his way back to the Slytherin Dungeons.

\"I can\'t believe that moron would actually think that I Draco, a MALFOY, for Merlin\'s sake would harbor feelings for that green eyed fuckwit.\" Draco said loudly to himself while walking out to the quidditch field.

Draco shivered then wrapped his arms around himself tightening his school robes. \"I wish it weren\'t so damn cold.\" Draco said supressing a sudder, watching his breath come out in white puffs, reaching the edge of the quidditch pitch. The cresent moon shone down, bathing Draco in its moonlight producing a pale lunar glow to emit from the blond\'s pale skin. \"Now I\'m starting to wish that I didn\'t meet Potter in the halls the other night...\" Draco sighed walking out to the middle of the field looking at the moon letting his eyelids drift shut. He stood still and let his arms fall to his sides.

Harry wasn\'t actually going to do the essay for Snape, he already did it. He just dropped by the dorms to get his black school robes, they were warmer than the sweater he was wearing. He actually left the Great Hall to be alone, and he found that the Quidditch pitch was the perfect place for his solitude.

Harry was walking along the sides of the halls with his right arm out stretched letting the tips of his fingers lightly brush the stone walls. He let out a shuddering breath. Even if it was cold He didn\'t bother to keep himself warm with his arms like most people would. Harry kept on walking until he reached the end of the Halls that lead to his destination.

He walked onto the soft frost covered grass on the edge of the field, looking up, he noticed a figure standing in the middle of the Quidditch pitch. \"Who the hell?\" Harry muttered walking along the bleachers, not wanting to draw the person\'s attention. He continued to walk until he was at the end of the bleachers, and stood behind them watching the figure with interest waiting to see what they would do. Harry watched for about five minutes not taking his eyes off the person. Harry sighed, deciding that the person wasn\'t going to move, he came out of hiding and approached the figure.

Draco heard the sound of foot falls coming towards him. He opened his eyes sighing, hearing that the footsteps stopped. \"I already know that your there.\" Draco stated turning around to face the intruder. Harry Potter. \'Oh great, just what I need.\' Draco thought sending a glare in the Gryffindor\'s direction.

\"Why are you here Malfoy?\" Harry asked stepping closer to the blond. \"I might ask you the same thing, and where is the weasel, and mud blood? Shouldn\'t they be here with their friend?\" Draco sneered, staring into the other\'s eyes. \"I told them that I was leaving, I just wanted to be alone, and this happens to be my favorite place for solitude.\" Harry calmly stated not even showing any trace of hate for the Slytherin.

\"Oh really? Isn\'t that strange? This happens to be MY favorite place for solitude as well, Scar head.\" Draco finished, turning back around to look at the moon. \"You can stop calling me names, Malfoy, it is a bit childish...don\'t you agree? Especially since were now in seventh year?\" Draco snorted in response. \"I could care less. Go away, I was here first, and I wish to be alone, so shoo.\" Harry chuckled and walked to stand beside his rival.

\"I wish to be alone, but I don\'t mind sharing the field.\" Harry said winking at Draco then smirked at the look on his rivals face. Draco could feel heat rising to his cheeks at this small action. \"Fine, whatever.\" Draco took one step away from Harry, but only to have Harry take one more step closer to him. Draco repeated his action, and so did Harry.

\"Why in Merlin\'s name are you taking a step closer to me when I step away from you?\" Draco asked looking at the slightly shorter boy. \'This is fun, I think I\'ve found a new way to annoy Malfoy!\' Harry thought with glee, a smile appearing on his face. \"Now what are you smiling at?\" Draco asked looking down at Harry\'s pants, just to make sure that this wasn\'t going to be a repeat of the last time Harry smiled when they were alone together. (see chapter 3)

\"Oh nothing...nothing that you would care about anyway.\" The brunette turned his head and smiled a kind affectionate smile at the other. \"You acting really weird lately...I hope it has nothing to do with when we met in the hall the other night....\" Draco stated with caution, unsure of what to do. Suddenly Draco felt a slithering sensation around his feet. Looking down he found a small black snake coiled around his ankle.

\"What the hell?\" Draco said staring at the beady black eyes that stared back at him. \"Whats wrong?\" Harry asked his companion. Draco bent down and put his arm next to the snake, letting it sliter around his arm. \"This.\" Draco simply stated showing Harry the black snake wrapped around his arm. \"Oh, may I see it?\" Harry asked. Draco shrugged and let the snake slither over to Harry\'s arm.

\"Hello, whats your name?\" Harry asked in parstletongue smiling at the snake. \"Hello, human...my name is Ryu.\" The snake hissed, its beady eyes glimmering in the moonlight. \"You may call me Harry, and what a beautiful snake you are. I take it that your a girl.\" Harry replied watching the snake as it coiled itself around his arm.

\"Thank you...Harry, and yes I am a girl\" Ryu hissed, then turning her head towards Draco. The blond completely forgot that Harry could speak parstletongue, recalling the time in 2nd year during the duel they had. \"What are you guys talking about?\" Draco asked still suprised, looking at Harry.

\"Just saying hello, its girl, and her name is Ryu...ha, isn\'t that kind of ironic? Ryu is Japanese for dragon, and if I recall, doesn\'t Draco mean dragon?\" Harry asked the blond while watching the snake. \"Yes, yes it does. \" Draco replied turning towards Harry facing him completely. \"Who is that?\" Ryu asked, her black eyes gleaming in the moonlight.

\"This is Draco, his name also means dragon, just like yours.\" Harry hissed at Ryu. The snake nodded it head. \"Do you think hes sexy? I seem to have a crush on him, but we\'ve been rivals, and enemies for 7 years, so I don\'t know if he\'d ever accept me.\" Harry hissed looking up at Draco, who was currently staring at the moon, listening to the conversation of parstletongue with a new found interest. \"I wouldn\'t know if he was sexy, I don\'t see anything attractive about humans, but why would you like him? He is a male like you, and you said that you\'ve been enemies for 7 years.\" Ryu asked turning to look back at Harry.

\"Well, just to be blunt, I\'m gay, and I\'ve liked him for awhile now, but he doesn\'t know it...I don\'t know how to tell him about my feelings.\" Harry stared at Draco with a dreamy look on his face. \"Just tell him...\" The snake hissed towards Harry, before speaking again. \"I must go, but I live in this field, and I hope to talk to you again...You are the first human I know that speaks my language.\"

Harry put his arm on the ground watching as Ryu slithered away in the grass. \"That was a interesting conversation.\" Harry smirked, knowing that this would grab Draco\'s attention. \"What was it about?\" Draco asked looking at Harry. \"Oh, nothing much, just you.\" Now he had Draco\'s full attention.

\"Me? Pray tell.\" The blond asked raising a brow in suspicion. \"I\'m not telling you.\" Harry stuck his tongue out, and put his middle finger under his right eye, pulling downward. \"And you say that I\'m childish for calling you names? Take a look in the mirror!\" Draco said smiling at his companions childish antics. \"Just tell me Potter, its not like it\'ll kill you.\"

\"You have to kill me first.\" Harry said slyly. \"Okay, have it your way!\" Draco lunged at Harry and tackled him onto the ground, pinning his wrists above his head sitting on Harry\'s stomach. \"Now will you tell me, seeing as how I have you...oh I don\'t know...pinned?\" Draco drawled, his voice dripping with mirth.

\"You gotta do better than that!\" Harry flipped Draco over, and reversed their positions, smirking at the boy below him. \"This must look wrong.\" Draco stated watching as Harry blushed at the position they were in. \"Oh well, you still haven\'t killed me.\" Draco sighed, then he twisted his arms out of Harry\'s grasp, and shoved Harry over onto his back. Standing up quickly, Draco put a binding charm on Harry.

\"Now you WILL tell me, because if you don\'t, I guess I can just leave you here until someone comes looking for you.\" Draco smirked, then put his foot on Harry\'s chest. \"Fine! Okay! I\'ll tell you, but you better promise to undo the binds!\" Draco nodded, and watched Harry squirm like the worm he was beneath his foot.

\"We were talking about how sexy you are, even if your a bloody git.\" Harry said as if it was nothing, watching Draco\'s face turn a interesting shade of red. \"Okay, I did NOT need to hear that coming from you.\" Draco said, then took the binds off of Harry. Harry stood up, and pointed his index finger at Draco\'s nose. \"You sexy little thing you!\" The Gryffindor just smirked, watching as Draco\'s face turned a even deeper red than before.

\"I can\'t believe I\'m hearing all this coming from YOU of all people...\" Draco said turning around to hide his embarrassment. \"Aww, is Draco blushing? How cute!\" Harry knew how flamingly gay this must sound, so he jumped infront of Draco and kissed the blonde on the cheek. \"Holy Hell...I think I\'m dreaming...Potter would never say this...WHO ARE YOU AND WHAT DID YOU DO WITH POTTER?!\" Draco yelled in embarrassment, grabbing Harry by the collar with both hands bringing the Gryffindor\'s face to his, to make sure that it really was the Golden Boy. Harry pinched Draco on the hand to prove that he wasn\'t dreaming.

\"Oh my god... I\'m not dreaming, and you are Harry Potter...\" Draco set Harry down and tried to walk away, but then Harry\'s hand shot out and grabbed his. Draco twirled around, but Harry was gone. \"What the fuck?!\" Draco was officially freaked out. \'This must be a dream...I\'m going to go lay down, and I\'ll wake up and it will all be a dream...\" Draco ran to the Castle and disappeared inside...

Harry watched the retreating form of the Slytherin Prince. \"I love mind games.\" Harry said smiling, taking off his invisibility cloak...\"Heh, good thing I had this with me.\" He said, secretly hoping that Draco really wouldn\'t wake up tomorrow and really think it was all a dream. \'I wish that I could show you how much I love you\' With that thought Harry left.

AN:Yes I know, this chapter was fluffy, Draco is a \'Sexy Little Thing!\' don\'t you agree? And the snake in this chapter actually can stay in the cold, its \'special\' so it doesn\'t need to stay warm. Leave a review.
