"She wants us to WHAT?!"

"We can't do that!"

John sighed. He had created this contest so that the fans would have a chance to direct something of their own, to be able to see some of their thoughts become reality, and of course for the publicity.

Tom and Dan had agreed along with all the other members of the cast. They had signed the contracts, made all the arrangements and opened the contest.

Millions had entered around the world for the chance to direct their choice of Harry Potter actors and their respective characters in a short film of their own direction.

Two months ago the winner had been picked. A girl from the west coast of the United States named Roxie had been chosen to direct her very own Harry Potter short film. The production had given her those two months to write her own screen play and choose what she wanted to do.

Tomorrow was the day it would be filmed. Since it was so short, it had been decided that only a few days would be dedicated to the project. She would be given a camera crew and the producer would supervise to make sure nothing went wrong.

The winner had been required to send in her script before her arrival in England so the actors she chose could read it over and start memorizing lines. The script had arrived the day before.

John was sitting in one of the private rooms on the Harry Potter set along with Tom Felton and Daniel Radcliffe, the winner's choice of characters. As of now they both looked shocked and a little disgusted.

"I can't do that!" Dan exclaimed. "I'm not even gay!"

"And you think I am?!" Tom spoke up. Dan looked over at him and paused. Tom's mouth dropped open in shock. "I'm not!"

"I dunno, man. I mean, you do look kind of feminine," Dan said, biting his lip.

"So?" Tom retorted angrily. "You're not any better, always obsessed with your hair. It's just hair!"

Dan ran a hand through his messy dark brown hair and glared at Tom who refused to give in.

"Boys, boys!" John interrupted. "This isn't going to solve anything."

"But what can we do about it?" Dan asked pleadingly, momentarily forgetting about Tom's hair remark.

"There really isn't anything we can do," John said and Tom let out a noise of indignation.

"What about the contract?!"

"Well, there's nothing in there about not doing sexual scenes. We didn't really take into account all those who enjoy that kind of entertainment."

"Kind of entertainment?!" Dan exclaimed. "Who enjoys that kind of thing?!"

Tom sighed and gave him a withering look while rolling his eyes. Dan gave him a blank look.

"Haven't you ever heard of fan fiction?" he asked.

"Uh... what?"

"Fan fiction," Tom repeated slowly as if Dan wouldn't understand otherwise. "The producers talk about it all the time. Apparently there are tons about Harry and Draco together."

"And you've read them?" Dan asked curiously.

"No!" he exclaimed. "I've just heard about them."

"Sure you have," Dan said with a knowing smile. Tom glared at him and his unsaid suggestion.

"We're getting off the subject," John interrupted once again. "The point is you agreed to do this and this script is what she wants. You can't back out now. Besides, think about it this way, it will make you more flexible actors."

The two boys still looked uneasy at the thought of what the script requested. In the end they agreed that they would follow through with fulfilling the contract.

As they left the room, John called after them, "Don't worry, it will expand your acting abilities. It will be a good experience, I promise."

Tom and Dan merely rolled their eyes as they walked away from the building in the gathering darkness. John sighed to himself and hoped that everything would go well the next morning.

***

Roxie stepped out of the long stretch limo that had been sent to pick her up at the hotel and into the early morning sun at the set. She was a pretty dark haired girl with hazel eyes. She smiled ecstatically as her eyes took in the camera equipment and the people running around doing technical things.

She was nearly shaking with excitement as a tall skinny man walked up to her.

"Roxie?" he asked and she nodded, still grinning. "I'm John and I'll be helping you with your film."

"Wow, this is so cool," she said in her American accent. John smiled indulgently at her enthusiasm as he led her away through the people and to a large white building. They entered and she looked around in awe.

Inside were several sets of different locations used in the Harry Potter movies. The Gryffindor common room was there along with the Boy's Dormitories and Harry's bedroom at the Dursley's.

John led her over to where several men were standing next to large cameras. They were each introduced to her in turn and she politely shook each hand. When that was over, she turned to John, her eyes sparkling excitedly.

"When do I get to meet them?" she asked eagerly. John laughed at her level of excitement.

"Soon, soon," he said. "First, I would like to discuss your script for a moment."

For a second, a look of worry crossed Roxie's face as he led her over to a secluded corner. He opened his mouth to speak but she interrupted him.

"It's because it's slash, isn't it?" she asked. "I know it's not conventional, but I just really want to do it." She looked pleadingly at him waiting for his answer.

"Actually, I have talked to the boys and you are allowed to go ahead with your script," John said and Roxie looked excited once more. "You may just have to limit what you make them do. They may not be comfortable with everything."

"Of course," she agreed readily. Anything to get what she wanted. "I wouldn't make them do anything too horrible," she added with a mischievous smile. John eyed her momentarily then decided he'd rather not know.

"In that case, it's time you met them."

Roxie nearly shrieked in joy but contained herself. Her eyes shone with repressed excitement as John led her back to the cameras. Her smile was so wide it it almost hurt. She took a deep breath, trying not to appear too crazy to the two British teens.

They came in the room and she nearly died. Tom was wearing a pair of jeans with a tight black tee-shirt. Along side him was Dan, laughing at something that had been said. He was sporting jeans and a light blue shirt, accenting his baby blue eyes.

They walked over to John and turned to the girl. Roxie suppressed the huge grin into a happy smile.

"Tom, Dan, this is Roxie. Roxie, this is Tom and Dan," John introduced them.

"Hey," Tom greeted the girl with a smile.

"Hi," Dan said. Roxie stood there unable to believe this was actually happening.

"I love you guys!" she burst out then clapped a hand over her mouth. She lowered it slowly and gave them a coy smile. "Sorry."

Tom laughed easily at the girl's outburst. Dan wasn't quite sure what to do. He'd never known how to handle girls, especially the obsessed fan type.

"I'm not crazy, I swear," she said, with a smile. John chuckled at the look on Dan's face. He looked a little like a deer in the headlights. Tom also laughed when he caught sight of his friend. Dan finally reacted and scowled at both of them.

"Shall we get going on this then?" John said, bringing the attention away from Dan. Roxie nodded in pure excitement. Tom and Dan exchanged an uneasy glance. This girl was sure eager to start this.

"So Roxie, in your script you weren't really specific as to where you wanted to start the scene," John said.

"Hmm..." she said, thinking. She looked around at all the available sets and her eyes sparkled mischievously as they came to rest of the Gryffindor common room. "There."

They all turned to look where she pointed and Tom scoffed.

"Draco wouldn't be caught dead in there," he said. Roxie gave him a small smile.

"No, but this is my film, isn't it?"

Dan started laughing as Tom just stared at her. He wasn't used to fan girls telling him what to do. Roxie raised an eyebrow and breezed past him onto the set.

"So, I'm thinking we have to start outside in the hallway," she said. "Then they'll come in here, and well, you know the rest."

Tom and Dan shot John a pleading look. It said 'Don't make us do this!' John just shrugged. Secretly he was enjoying watching this girl take over so quickly and having Tom and Dan not know what to do.

"You guys read the script, right?" Roxie interrupted their silent plea to John.

"Yeah," they muttered.

"Good, so you know the lines, and you know that we're going to start right now?"

John had to hide his smile as the boys were directed by this 18 year-old American. They moved sluggishly to the set which held the outside of the portrait hole. Roxie stood back as they stood in front of it.

"Dan, you stand over here," she said, directing him to lean against the wall. "And Tom... you stand right in front of him, well, a little to the left."

He moved over next to Dan. Roxie rolled her eyes and walked onto the set. She grabbed his shoulders and steered him closer.

"That's better," she said. Tom looked taken aback at being handled like that by someone with no authority.

"Are you ready?" she asked them. They nodded slowly, still looking kind of uneasy. "Can I start?" she asked John.

"Go ahead, say it," he said, grinning. He liked the way this girl worked.

"Lights, Camera, Action!" she said with zest. She had to hold back her giggle as the camera's clicked on.

"Potter," Tom drawled, becoming Draco. "What are you doing here?"

"I live here," Dan replied scathingly, now Harry.

"Now, check out his body!" Roxie called from the directors chair. Tom's eyes raked up and down Dan's torso and he placed a hand on either side of him.

"That's good," she said.

"Really?" Tom drawled. "So then you can get me in?"

"Why would I let you in?" Dan said scathingly, scowling at Tom.

"I can think of a few reasons," Tom said, smirking.

"Cut!" Roxie yelled. "That was awesome!"

Tom moved away from Dan and Dan sighed in relief. He hadn't really liked the closeness of his co-star. Something had seemed off.

"So," she said with a mischievous grin. "You all know what's next."

Dan bit his lip and looked once again to John who said nothing. He was too busy trying not to grin or laugh that he barely noticed. Roxie got off the chair and walked over to where Tom was standing.

"Okay, when you kiss him, I want... I want it to be like he's not expecting it. I mean, of course he's not expecting it. What I mean is I want it to be almost forceful but not really. Do you know what I mean?"

Tom stared at her blankly for a few seconds before nodding slowly. She eyed him carefully as though she knew he was lying to get her away from him.

"Alright," she said. "Let's go."

Dan moved back to his previous position and Tom to his. They were less than a foot apart and Dan was chewing his bottom lip nervously.

"Stop it," Tom warned him. Dan immediately stopped but glared at him momentarily.

"Action!" Roxie called from off stage.

Tom leaned in slowly and kissed Dan rather awkwardly. Dan had his eyes squeezed shut. Roxie rolled her eyes at the pair of them.

"Tom, relax! Dan, open your eyes for a second!"

Tom tried to relax but the thought that he was kissing a guy wouldn't leave his head.

"Tom, you're trying too hard. The kiss isn't supposed to be this boring! Tilt your head to the left, open your mouth a little, come on!"

Tom pulled away from Dan rather suddenly and turned to Roxie, an indignant look on his face.

"Are you a director or a slave driver?!" he exclaimed. Roxie merely raised an eyebrow and gave him an evil smirk and didn't respond to the question.

"You're doing it wrong. If it bothers you that it's a guy, pretend it's a girl," she said as though it was the obvious choice. Tom frowned. He'd been trying, though Dan hadn't made it any easier. He was stiffer than a board.

"Fine, fine," he muttered. John stood in the background, laughing to himself at the three teenagers interactions.

"Okay, now action," she said.

Tom leaned in again towards Dan. He pressed his lips against Dan's. Knowing that the kiss was supposed to be more demanding, he opened his mouth and licked Dan's lower lip.

Dan opened his mouth in surprise and a foreign tongue slithered into his open mouth. Tom nibbled Dan's lower lip, licking and tasting as he went. Little by little Dan began to respond. The kiss was growing in fervor and they had almost forgotten the cameras present.

Tom's hand left the wall where it had been previously stationed to slip around Dan's neck. He pulled his head closer, deepening the kiss. Dan let out a quiet moan as Tom's tongue continued to massage his own.

Finally, the need for air over powered them and they pulled away panting.

"Cut!" A voice cut through the air. Tom staggered back a pace and stared at Dan. Dan looked equally shocked and quickly wiped his mouth.

"Wow, that was amazing!" Roxie said as she bounced up to them. "Are you sure you haven't done that before?"

"No!" they both exclaimed at the same time. She grinned and winked at them.

"Sure," she said skeptically. They both glared after her as she went to get a bottle of water. John came up behind them and clapped them both on the shoulders.

"What do you think of our new director, boys?" he asked.

"I think she's off her rocker," Tom muttered. "Crazy Americans."

"She's different," Dan said and Tom scoffed.

"You're too nice. Just say it, she's crazy."

Dan rolled his eyes at his friend and walked away to get something to drink. Tom watched him go, thinking to himself. John saw this and pulled him over into a corner.

"Tom, what you're feeling is perfectly natural. A lot of teenagers go through periods like this."

"I'm not going through a period," Tom said indignantly. "It was just different when I kissed him, I don't know."

John didn't push the subject anymore as he had no more time. Roxie came back and was walking around the set of the common room.

"I think Harry should give the password then Draco follows him in and we continue from the couch," she said thoughtfully.

Tom and Dan moved back into their previous positions as Roxie called Action.

"Do you want to come in?" Dan asked breathlessly.

"That's what I was aiming for," Tom drawled in perfect imitation of Draco. Dan turned around to the now empty wall.

"Now, Dan, act flustered!" Roxie said. "The hottest guy in school just kissed you, that's gotta mean something!"

Off to the side John was bent double in silent laughter as the Dan tried to follow her directions. He said the password and Cut was called.

They continued the scene from the opposite side of where the portrait hole should be.

"Ugh," Tom sneered as they walked through the Gryffindor common room. "Why does it have to be so red?"

Dan laughed slightly as he led the way to the couch.

"Well, they are Gryffindor colors," he said, smiling. Tom rolled his eyes, still sneering. They sat down on the couch.

"Dan, act nervous, pick at a thread on the couch," Roxie directed. Dan followed her instructions, playing idly with a string on the red couch.

"Now Tom, look up at him, lock eyes."

Tom raised his eyes to Dan's and they clicked. Dan's glittery blue eyes looked nervous and determined at the same time. Tom licked his lip nervously, knowing what his character was supposed to be doing at this moment in time.

"What are you waiting for?" Roxie's voice broke through Tom's own thoughts.

He scooted forward on the couch until he was only inches from Dan. He could hear Dan's increased breathing as he stared at him. Tom swallowed and moved in.

He brushed his lips tentatively against Dan's. He pressed them harder to his lips and ran his tongue around Dan's bottom lip.

Dan opened his mouth tentatively and Tom deepened the kiss by slipping his tongue inside the smaller boy's hot mouth. Dan's eyes drifted closed as Tom pushed closer, shoving his tongue into his mouth.

He nipped Dan's lip in an effort to get him to respond. His tongue slowly came up to meet Tom's. Tom moved forward, pushing Dan down onto the couch.

The kiss grew more intense as Dan was lowered onto his back, lying on the couch. His hands came up to Tom's sides, brushing under the light t-shirt. Tom groaned quietly into Dan's mouth, the sound vibrating through the dark-haired boy.

He slowly lowered his body on top of the smaller boy. He settled himself comfortably between his legs, still kissing him. With a last kiss, Tom abandoned Dan's mouth and kissed down his jaw line and to his neck.

Dan was breathing heavily by now and moaned when Tom licked and sucked at the skin on his neck. The sound sent vibrating jolts all through his body.

Dan's hands were now fully underneath Tom's shirt, running over his chest and torso. His hand came out from under the shirt to grip his hip.

"Fuck," he cursed quietly as Tom continued to nip and lick at his neck. He could feel himself growing hard at his companion's ministrations.

Suddenly, Tom ground himself into Dan and he cried out. Tom was hard as well and the added friction of the jeans and his hard cock was a new sensation.

Dan's head was thrown back as Tom moved down from his neck to the collar of his shirt. His hands ran underneath it and over his erect nipples.

Tom then licked a path up to Dan's ear, causing him to shudder uncontrollably at the sensation. He kissed his neck softly then his jaw and finally his mouth.

Tom pulled away softly. Dan opened his eyes to gaze into Tom's face. He smiled softly at him and was about to kiss him again when the sound of clapping could be heard.

The boys jerked up and apart at the sound. They had completely forgotten about the set. Everyone had been completely silent while they had drifted off into their own little world.

Some of the crew members were clapping and blowing wolf whistles. Roxie was sitting in the director's chair, her mouth hanging open as she stared at them.

"Wow," she breathed. John looked surprised. He had a hand to his mouth as he watched the two boys scramble away from each other. He suppressed a small smile and didn't say anything

Roxie got up from the chair and walked over to where the boys were standing, looking slightly embarrassed.

"I had no idea, guys," she said. They both stared at her.

"What?" Tom asked.

"That you liked each other," she said.

"But we don't—"

"I've never—"

She held up a hand to silence them both. She grinned a mischievous grin as she looked at the two of them.

"You're welcome."
