Bullies Unravel (boyxboy) (drarry)

Chapter Five

Third Person P.O.V

Dean, Neville, Hermione and Harry sat in Hermione's living room on Saturday night. It was Halloween and they planned on just watching movies and eating pizza. They decided on not doing costumes since they weren't going out. A week prior to that, when Harry came out to Hermione, he broke down because she was rendered speechless. When she got over her shock she told him that she loved him and that it was alright. Truth was, Hermione was shocked Harry had any preference at this point. She was shocked because his mental status was less mature than he was physically, so she figured that it would take time for Harry to even come into his sexual awakening so to speak. After she accepted him, he gained the courage to tell his friends who accepted him right away. Dean even went as far to tell him that he had the hots for Seamus Finnegan, an Irish exchange student. That earned a giggle from Harry. So there they were sitting on her floor or couch waiting for their pizza to arrive.

"So Harry, does any guy catch your eye?" Neville asked and Harry blushed. He sat up from the position on his stomach and sat his but on his feet leaning on his knees.

"No not really." Harry shook his head.

"Well when you do, let me know so we can double date." Dean said and Harry blushed.

"Dean, don't corrupt him." Hermione scolded. The doorbell rang. "That was be the pizza." Hermione got up and walked over to the door. Her face turned into an immediate scowl.

"Trick or treat." The people sounded.

"Aren't you a little old to be trick or treating?" She asked.

"It was Crabbe's idea." The familiar voice drawled. "Plus I'm surprised you didn't bother taking Baby Potty out."

"Excuse me?" She gasped.

"You act like his mother when in fact he doesn't have one, we know that. He doesn't even have parents, Parentless Baby Potty." The voice said and the others snickered. Harry's face fell and he dropped his head upon hearing this.

"Malfoy-"

"You probably pity the baby. Merlin knows all the teachers do, pity the baby." He said and that was the last straw.

"Get off my property!" Hermione screeched and slammed the door. She was fuming and she turned on heal. Her eyes fell on Harry who was trying not to cry.

"Harry?" She said gently. He promptly burst into tears and Neville, the closest to him, hugged him. "Harry, don't listen to him, he's an idiot."

"H-he's right." Harry bawled nuzzling his face into Neville's neck. "I-I am a b-baby."

"No Harry, you're not." Neville said and gently patted his back. "You're not, Malfoy is just an ass and he doesn't know anything." Harry just cried until they turned into slight whimpers.

"M-my parents died today, fourteen years ago." Harry mentioned.

"Harry-"

"P-people do just pity me, especially today." He said sadly and then Neville loosened his grip. Harry wiggled out of it and curled into himself. Hermione sighed and walked over to him; kneeling next to him she asked,

"Harry, do you wanna go home?" He shook his head and uncurled himself. He rose to his knees and gave Hermione a hug.

"Thank you 'mione, but papa gets upset today so I wanna stay with my friends."
