Soulmates

3. Chapter

The last two days were busy for both boys, neither of them had the chance to speak to the other. Both missed each other dearly, but were afraid if the other even wanted to see them.

Harry was worried, Draco was even paler than usual, extremely slimmed , had red rimmed eyes and his hands were trembling constantly. He looked awful, like an empty shell without a soul.

Like now normally Draco didn't touch his food, only sat there staring at his table and sneaking glances at a particular emerald eyed.

" What do do you think is wrong with him?" The other two of the golden Trio sat down besides Harry, but Ron only cared for food, he didn't even hear Hermione question.

"If I only knew that... I know Nott has something to do with it, but I'm afraid that's not all. And then there's this thing... Draco said Nott found out."

"What did I miss?" Her eyebrow was raised, an annoyed expression on her face, the smart Gryffindor didn't like the idea of not knowing something.

"Well eh, I followed him a couple days ago after he stormed out of the great hall, found him in the room of requirement crying, so I comforted him and yeah... we kind of cuddled afterwards, nothing big" A blush crept his way onto the raven haired cheeks, a smile forming on his lips, as he remembered the moment.

"Nothing big? Nothing big! Yeah right, you just cuddled with him, but nothing big?!" Hermione yelped, the whole hall looking at them.

"Cuddled? With who? Mate, you have to introduce me to her" Ron stopped eating for once, joining the conversation.

"Her! Harry is gay, there is no her! But he's too much of a coward, to even come out to you!" Hermione's face was almost as red as her boyfriends hair, screaming it out loud, for everyone to hear.

Harry loved his friends, really much, like his family, but in times like this he couldn't stand them. At most at Ron's answer.

"Harry's a faggot?" Whispers and murmurs erupted in the great hall, grew louder and louder with each second passing.

The chosen one couldn't deal with the attention, disgusted and accusing looks. He stormed out, not even noticing a white haired staring at him, following him seconds after.

The room of Requirement, transformed into the scene from earlier this week, only this time it was Harry sitting on the couch. Not even a minute after, the door opened, revealing a gray eyed, breathless boy, a worried expression on the pale face.

"Harry are you- are you okay?" Slowly, he walked to boy who lived, carefully like he didn't want to frighten Harry of.

"Yeah, yeah I think I'm alright?" Draco sat down next to Harry, close, but not that their legs touched. Slowly he began rubbing the taller ones back, in a reassuring pattern.

"You think?" The question was quiet almost as if the ice prince wasn't sure if he was allowed to ask.

"Yeah, I- I just wasn't ready to come out, you know? It was too early for me, I mean I only discovered shortly after the war. I don't know okay, I' just angry at Hermione for saying it out loud, she and you were the only persons I told, I didn't want the others to know, not now but maybe later"

A sigh escaped his lips, as he rubbed his eyes, clearly annoyed.

"I didn't came out to my parents willingly too, it just slipped out. The face they made were hilarious, especially my dad, he laughed and shouted 'Ha I knew' trough the whole dining room. I wish mom was as accepting, she tried to hook me up with some girls since then."

Both boys chuckled, Draco was glad he made Harry feel better. "Harry" He tried again "Harry?" but the boy didn't hear it, too far into his own world. Thats until the white haired poke him into his side, making harry flinch and release an unmanly shout.

"Oh your going to pay for that Dragon!" Draco smiled at the nickname. Suddenly Harry started to tickle the ex death eater, making the boy scream and laugh for surrender.

Surprisingly Draco could escape him, running around the Couch, Harry following him closely, both guys laughing and smiling widely. The white haired tried to jump on the couch but Harry was faster, grabbing Draco at his wrist, so the back was pressed against his chest.

Draco giggled, the sound making Harry's Heart flutter, almost melting in his chest. Draco slowly calmed down, grabbed the raven's Hands on his chest, holding them tight, like he's afraid Harry will disappear. Both boy's stood there, in the room of requirement, engulfed in each other's hug, enjoying the Moment.

Harry's chin placed in Draco's soft hair, his Arms tight around the white haired's chest, smelling the scent that he smelled before, in the armotentia potion. Not that he would ever tell anyone, but it smelled like vanilla, old books and a cologne, only Draco wears. It was strong but not too strong, just perfect.

The gray eyed felt safe, safer than ever. Harry's scent engulfed him, reminding him of quidditch, strawberry and grass, causing a sweet little smile to appear on his lips.

A tingeling feeling along with warmth rushed trough their body's, this time stronger than the last one. Both felt completely at ease and satisfied.

"I like your Shampoo, it smells like vanilla" Harry suddenly said, groaning inwardly for destroying their moment, waiting till Draco said what a creep he is. But the not so Ice Prince anymore, just chuckled, cuddling a little closer to Harry.

Both boys were far too occupied with each other to even notice the flash of a camera...

*****

The next morning was awkward. People keep whispering, looking at Harry, but when he came near them, they stopped, acting like they didn't talk about him. Ron practically ignored him and he didn't want to see Hermione, still pissed at her for outing him.

"Harry is it true?" Seamus asked and unbelievable expression on his face. "What are you talking about?" The raven haired asked. "Mate, did you not see it?" A silent o escaped Seamus lips, a pitiful look in his eyes.

Seamus boyfriend, Dean gave Harry a Newspaper, same look on his face. The cover made Harry curse:

Are Harry Potter, savior of the wizard world, And Draco Malfoy, an ex-death eater, together?

Yesterday Morning One of Harry's closest friends confirmed that Harry likes the same gender, later in that day, they two have been seen cuddling and fooling around. Are they dating or is it an affair?
