Train Journeys, Flirtatious Gryffindors and Fourth Year

Harry was nervous, but he had to do it. He had known for quite some time that it wasn’t just girls that he was interested in. He had first figured this out when he had returned to Hogwarts for his third year and had seen how Malfoy had grown. He couldn’t help but notice small things like his sharp bone structure ore his piercing silver eyes and soft fluffy looking white blond hair. He didn’t tell anyone this, for fear that his friends wouldn’t want to be his friends.

On the train ride back to Hogwarts, Harry thought to himself; it was fourth year, he should stop being such a coward and just attempt to flirt with Malfoy. If he didn't react well to it, he could turn it into an insult somehow. That's just what scared Harry, the idea that Draco might just actually prefer the flirting to insults. Hermione had noticed him looking a little blue and asked, "Harry, are you okay?" Harry bit his lip and fidgeted with his jeans but nodded, "I'm fine, Mione. Just a bit nervous.” Hermione raised an eyebrow, “What is it you’re nervous about? The upcoming school year?” Harry smirked ever so slightly, “Naturally, that’s what you’d think but no. Can I tell you something, Mione?” Hermione nodded, “Of course you can, Harry. Should we wait for Ron?” Harry shook his head furiously and replied, “No. He um… likely won’t take this well. I’ll tell him later. Listen, Mione… You’re basically my sister. I'm... I um... I'm b-bisexual.” Hermione shook her head at him and smiled, “That’s wonderful, Harry. No need to worry. I was going to tell you and Ron together, but I am too. Bisexual, I mean.” Harry grinned, “Brilliant.” She laughed happily, her eyes twinkling with mirth, “So, Harry… anyone in particular strike you? I have my eye on someone, but I’m unsure if she’ll like me back.” Harry smiled softly, “She? Who do you have your eye on?” Hermione smirked a bit, “I’ll tell you mine if you tell me yours, Harry. That’s how siblings work, right?” Harry chuckled slightly, running a hand through his hair, “Yeah, I guess so. Ladies first.” he nodded. Hermione giggled a bit and told him, “You’ll probably think I’m barking mad, but… Pansy Parkinson.” Harry went blank for a moment before hugging Hermione tightly to him and telling her, “I’m happy for you. You’ll be amazing together, I’m sure. You at least have a chance. Malfoy will never think of me like that…” Hermione looked shocked but then realisation kicked in and she hugged him tightly, “Harry! Why didn’t you say anything before? It makes so much sense now!” Harry let her go, chuckling as he rubbed the back of his neck, “Yeah, I guess.” Hermione looked panicked and put a hand over her mouth, “Ron is going to be so mad at us!” Harry smirked a bit, “Maybe not so much. I’ve seen him sneaking glances at someone that I don’t think he’d admit to having a crush on. And I don’t mean Lavender. He’s straight though, to my knowledge.” Hermione snorted, “Harry, I don’t think anyone could be straighter than Ron. Who was he looking at?” He grinned, “That’s no fun, Mione. You’ll find out.” Hermione scowled and huffed a bit, sitting down. Moments later Ron came into the compartment, looking absolutely embarrassed, ears red. Harry noticed this and carefully asked, “Hi mate. You okay?” Ron stormed over and plonked himself down in the middle of Hermione and Harry, “Just my tosser brothers.” he sighed. “Which ones?” Harry asked curiously. Ron gritted his teeth, “The bloody twins found out – err, something that I’d rather they hadn’t and are lording it over me.” Hermione looked curious, “What did they find out?” Ron blushed darkly, “They found out who my crush was and no, I’m not telling you guys because I’m a bit weird about it. They’re not a Slytherin, don’t worry.” Harry noticed two things; one, he hadn’t said she and that it wasn’t a Slytherin, which proved his guess wrong. He looked at Ron, “I have something to tell you, so maybe we could share secrets? You too, Mione if you’d comfortable.” Hermione shyly nodded, wanting nothing between them. Ron looked sheepish and confused but agreed, “Alright. Harry, your idea, you go first. I’ll go after you.” Harry nodded, “I’m bisexual and I have a crush on a guy.” Ron looked a bit shellshocked but nodded, “Nice. What’s that mean?” Harry smiled, remembering that Ron didn’t know that much about the Muggle world. “It means that I can like girls and boys. I mostly like boys though.” Harry replied. Ron grinned, “Oh. Me too then.” Hermione looked shocked at this statement and nodded, “I guess that’s all three of us then. Except I like them equally.” she blushed a bit, thinking about Pansy. Ron nodded, “Nice. I have a crush on someone… can I tell you guys who it is if you don’t let anyone else know?” Harry inhaled sharply, not wanting to tell his just yet but decided to be braver than he wanted to be, again, “Sure. You okay with that, Mione?” She nodded and said, “I’ll go first. Pansy Parkinson.” Harry gave her a grateful look and Ron raised his eyebrows, “Blimey, Mione. A Slytherin?” Hermione blushed, “I’ve seen her in the library more times than she’d like to admit she was there.” Harry smiled softly, “You need to talk to her. Even be friends or something…. For now.” he added, smirking a bit. Hermione blushed, “Now you.” Harry nodded, “The heart wants what it wants. Mine wants an ice blond git, apparently.” Ron’s jaw dropped, looking scandalised, “What?!” he exclaimed. Harry looked scared, “Draco Malfoy.” he clarified. Ron nodded, “Right. You two have questionable taste in love but that’s up to you guys, I guess. Sadly, I’ve got no chance. He’s too great to notice me.” Harry tilted his head, “You like sporty types, right?” Ron blushed, “Shut it. You know about me liking Krum. Merlin, I’d die if I ever met him.” Hermione snickered, “Bit of an exaggerated statement, don’t you think?” He blushed. Hermione chuckled, “Hopefully you won’t’ then, because we kind of need you living.” Harry chuckled but then froze, spotting a head of white blond hair outside of their compartment and waiting to come in. He swore under his breath and glared at his friends, “If you tell him, I will kill you both.” Hermione laughed, “Wouldn’t dream of it, Harry.” Ron smirked a bit, “He wouldn’t believe us anyway, mate.” Harry nodded sadly, “Guess you’re right.” Ron looked like a kicked puppy, “Shit mate, I’m sorry. I didn’t mean anything by it.” Harry nodded, “I know, Ron. Can you guys do me a favour?” Hermone nodded, “Sure.” Harry blushed, “Could you um… could you leave so I can talk to him? I’m going to tell him. So what if he tells me to sod off. I’ll come to you broken hearted later probably.” Hermione hugged him before looking at Ron, “Come on, we’re going to find the twins and I’ll make them apologise to you.” Ron laughed and went with her gladly, “We can try, Mione.” They left shortly after. Draco was surprised to see them leave without Harry but swept into the compartment.
