The Devil's Book

A/N -- Look! Another chapter like Ii said…how much would you all hate me if I said that these two chapters have been written for well over a month…because that is soo not true…anywho…please leave me lots of nice reviews. It would boost my self esteem and I would write more.

Disclaimer -- I do not own Harry Potter!

"Draco?" Harry look up at the blonde as the two walked to the lake to sit down.

"Yes love?"

Harry blushed a little at the endearment before saying, "Ron and them know I'm dating someone. They don't know who though because I told them that she didn't want people to know. I'm sorry, I didn't want to tell them, but they asked me questions and I didn't know what to say and, and -" Harry said getting more and more flustered with each passing word.

"Shhh. Don't worry about it Harry," Draco said pulling the brunette into his lap as he sat on the bank of the lake.

They sat in silence for a bit before Harry spoke up.

"When are they going to do it?"

"Do what?" Draco asked already knowing the answer.

"Betray me. Sell their souls to you so that they can have more power."

"Soon."

"That's not a very good answer, and you know it!" Harry said getting angry.

"I'm sorry mon amour, but it is the best answer I can give you. I know it's soon because, well I just know these types of things. I won't know exactly until they call me. When they do I'll bring them to hell and get on with it," Draco said while hugging Harry closer to himself.

"Can I be there?"

"Why would you want to do that?"

"I want to see what happens to them. I want to look in their eyes and know that they really mean it, or don't if that's even a possibility," Harry said as he started to cry softly.

"Shh. I don't really think you want to go then. I only think one of them isn't sincere."

Harry sniffs a little. "Who?"

"Neville. From what I understand he's in the group by accident. I never force people to do this, they have the choice of backing out until the moment it's done. I have a feeling Mr. Longbottom will say no, that is if he's offered the proper cover and possibly protection."

"Why would you help Neville?"

"First off, it would be a favor to a friend. Secondly, he is far more powerful than he thinks. He could be a great wizard if people would let him. Living under constant pressure to be something you're not stunts a person."

"I thought you didn't like him?" Harry asked looking up a his boyfriend.

"I've never been allowed to."

"But you're not really a Malfoy."

"True, but I am living as one. It's practically the same thing. Sure, I can leave and come back any time I want, but to the majority of the world I am a Malfoy by birth and blood. I am expected to act as such."

"So are you saying that you're not really the snaky bastard that everyone knows and loathes?" Harry asked with a sly grin.

"Oh, I am quite a bastard, and I suppose that I'm snaky as well, but I am not that way because I'm a Malfoy. I am that way because, well I don't know why, but I definitely am. Furthermore, you Mr. Potter do not loathe me, in fact I would go so far as to say you like me," Draco said as he started to tickle the smaller brunette in his arms. As Harry started to squirm around Draco gripped him and turned Harry so that they were facing each other. "Isn't that so?" Draco said as he smirked and leaned in closer pressing his mouth to the smaller boy's.
