Chapter 5

Harry stared up at the graying canopy of his four-post bed. Hw couldn't understand why his friends wouldn't tell him he had creature blood. He knew it must have been on the Potters' side, his mother was a muggle born. He sighed and looked to his left; Malfoy was there, his mouth open and the softest of snores escaping. Harry fought down a laugh. For some reason, he had thought Malfoy would be as stuck up in his sleep as when he was awake.

But, no, there he was, rolled on his side, cuddling his blanket.

Harry knew he was only distracting himself from thinking about the betrayal of his friends and family, but he couldn't care less. He felt he had a right to know. He knew so little about his parents that, to find out something like that in front of the whole school, was a blow to his pride. He didn't want to share his parents, he wanted to know everything and he wanted that knowledge to himself.

He sighed again and looked to his right. Ron, snoring almost as loud as Neville did. He felt hurt when he looked at his best friend. Ron had known something and hadn't told him.

"Potter?"

Harry sat up. Squinting in the dark without his glasses, he couldn't just make out Zabini.

"Don' let it get to you. I know you're thinking about your parents, but don't look down on your friends because they didn't tell you."

"Why are you helping me?"

"I may not like you, but I know you're fair. As a leader, you beat any of those cowards out there. And besides, I'm faithful to my house, wherever that may be."

Harry nodded. "Thanks." He leaned back against his pillows, almost feeling better.

"Good. Now stop tossing and turning so I can get some sleep." Malfoy mumbled as he turned over and went back to snoring.

Harry smiled and closed his eyes; after all, he had the rest of the year to find out what was going on...

"Come on, Harry, wake up!"

Harry groaned and rolled over, shutting his eyes again as the morning light shinned in his face. "Ron! It's Saturday!"

"I know mate but I have to meat Hermione and Remus is wanting to see you."

"Okay, okay, I'll go see Remus as soon as I get a shower."

"Right, mate. Just use the map to find them. The pass word is 'Night Grim'." Ron said as he headed for the door and left Harry alone.

Harry shrugged and sat up, rubbing his neck. The dorm was almost empty, only Malfoy still sleeping. Might as well set about the day! Harry frowned when he realized seeing Remus meant that he would have to ask questions he wasn't sure he was ready to have answered. The night before, he had been angry, hurt, and he wanted answers.

But what if he hadn't been told because they were so bad? Maybe it was a dark secret that would make him into the monster the Wizarding World was making him out to be. Harry wasn't sure he could handle anything bad about his parents. He may not have known them, but he was still protective over their memory.

Sighing, Harry picked up some clothes and went into the bathroom; turning the water to hot and watching the steam start to rise.

He pulled his shirt up over his head and let it fall to the floor, rolling his shoulders to get the kinks out. The he slid the waist of his shorts down his hips, marveling at the feel of the hot steam against his skin, almost like fingers ghosting over his body.

Harry opened his eyes, seeing nothing but mist, and stepped into the shower stall, the click of it locking echoing against the stone tile of the floor and walls.

The water ran over his body, gleaming against his golden skin, as his hand felt it's way down between his legs, grasping his cock. His head tossed back, Harry let his mind wander, imagining dark eyes and rough lips. He could almost feel the hot breath on his neck as he groaned, his hand moving faster. Could almost feel a firm body pressing into his back, callused hands gripping his hips.

Harry moaned, rubbing his thumb across the head. He braced his free arm on the door, his hand making a sweat print from the heat and steam. Gasping and moaning, he caressed his cock, circling the head and stocking down the shaft, squeezing the base and back up. He could feel the pressure churning in his gut, the tightening in his balls, but he bit his lip and thought harder about those hallowed eyes that seemed to suck out his very soul.

Moaning as his hand moved ever faster, Harry stood in a frenzy. He could feel each drop of water it traveled his body, every wave of steam as it rushed past him, hear every gasp that escaped his lip; rising higher and higher as his desire begged to be completed.

He shivered as he felt a touch across his shoulder, as light as a feather, and a whispered promise 'soon'.

Harry came with a shuddering groan, hand milking his cock as he held firm to the voice. He breathed deeply as he watched the remains of his cum swirl down the drain, praying that Myrtle wasn't anywhere near this side of the Castle.

Still sort on breath, Harry opened the stall door and wrapped a towel around his waist. He picked up his wand and did a quick drying charm and a cleaning spell on his teeth, too much in a hurry to do it properly, and got changed into a dark blue pull over shirt and a faded pair of blue jeans. Pulling on his socks and shoes, he was out the door and in the common room before he realized he had left the map.

Taking the stairs tow at a time, he ran into Malfoy. "Sorry, just needed to get something."

"Right, Potter." Malfoy mumbled. "Just watch where you're going. I'm late for my meeting with Severus."

" 'Severus'?"

"Yeah, Potter, he's a family friend and my godfather, I'm allowed to call him by his given name."

"Relax, Malfoy, I didn't mean anything by it." Harry said as he pushed past Malfoy and started out to find Remus.

A/N: I wasn't planning on a solo this early in the story, but since I was late getting the chapter out last week, I thought I'd give everyone a little treat. And also, since I was late with the last chapter, I'll be posting 2 chapters this week. So look out for it on Wednesday. I know this one is short but chapter 6 will make up for it. Plus, it'll have a big scene with Severus!
