The Ball

Harry didn't like Draco, not one bit. Or so he thought...

"Oi potter, got a date to the ball?" He asked during potions, to make Harry turn scarlet.

"No, Malfoy, but I'm not gonna go with you." He snapped back, and messed up his potion.

"Pottterrrrr, why won't you go with me?" Draco asked during dinner, as he not so casually walked past the Gryffindor table.

"Because you're a git Malfoy, leave me alone." He replied for what felt like the hundredth time.

Here's the problem, though.

He needed a date, or else Mcgonnagal would make him Mcgonnagone.

Many girls had asked, but he declined due to the compelling factor that he was a raging homosexual.

He wasn't out yet, so no gay guys asked him.

Except for Malfoy.

He had two days, two days to find a date, he was starting to worry it would have to be Malfoy.

****

"Oops..." Malfoy stated the next day in potions class. Harry looked over at his parter, Draco, and sighed.

"I seem to have dropped my quill... I guess I better pick it up" he said out loud before bending over, like you would to touch your toes, grabbing the quill, and snapping up right with his arms bent.

Harry knew that move... It was the bend and snap.

Malfoy... How did you know about the bend and snap?

The bend and snap was from a muggle movie called "Legally Blonde" and is used to attract someone you like.

Harry only knew this because he watched it with the dursleys, even tho he hid behind a couch just to see it.

"Bloody hell, don't tell me you asked Hermione for help." I said, but couldn't ignore the fact the Draco looked good bent over.

"Help with what?" Draco asked innocently, and put the end of his quill in his mouth.

"Never mind.." Harry snapped and looked away, annoyed by his sudden attraction toward Draco.

He still thought he was a git, but a hot, sexy, and gay git.

"So, got a date to the ball yet?" He asked and continued with the potion, doing everything correct as usual.

"No, but I will..."He replied with an annoyed tone.

"Whatever you say, just know I don't have a date and don't plan on settling for anything less than your hot ass." Draco said casually, but it made Harry's cheeks red like a sunset.

****

The dance was today, and holy shit he had no dance partner. He had no choice, he had to ask Malfoy.

He needed a date, and there was no way he was taking a girl.

Due to procrastination, he waited until two hours before the dance. Harry was panicking, but was glad that he even had an option.

Even if his option was a blonde haired jerk.

He walked towards the  Slytherin common room, and wasn't surprised to see Malfoy out side.

"Potter!" Draco exclaimed, getting the message without Harry opening his mouth.

"Draco, will you dance with me.." Harry said awkwardly, and Draco's face lit up.

"Yes! Yes I will! Okay so what color are your dress robes" He asked excitingly, a huge smile across his face.

"Black and red, you?"

"Black and green, how funny" Draco responded and looked Harry in the eyes.

"Look Draco, this doesn't mean we are boyfriends, okay?" Harry said, just wanting to make it clear.

"Yeah, I know." Draco said, in a slightly flatter voice.

"See you at 7" Draco said before heading back to the common room.

***

Harry went to get Draco at 6:30, and if possible Draco looked even hotter than before.

They walked back to the gathering of students, and made small talk until it was time to go in.

"Triwizard participants, gather by me." Mcgonnagal said loudly, and Harry moved towards her.

When Harry and Draco gathered in the group, she looked confused.

"Draco, what are you doing? You're not in the tourn-" she said, but stopped when she saw how closely the boys were standing.

"I see." She said, and nodded at them with a blush on her cheeks.

Harry groaned at the thought of what everyone would say, and Draco linked their hands quickly and squeezed reassuringly.

Harry felt flutters in his stomach, probably nerves about the dance.

The gasps in the room when Harry walked in with Draco on his arm was deafening, and Harry wished it wasn't such a big deal.

Draco laid his hands softly on Harry's waist, and they danced to the music as they were taught.

Draco was actually a very good dancer, thankfully, because Harry was shit and Draco seemed to cover that up.

The flutters continued, and Harry realized something he has been scared of.

He had feeling for the git. Romantic feelings, and he did something just now that he would be forever grateful for doing.

He kissed him.

He kissed him in front of the school, of the teachers, and even in front of the ghosts. Everyone stopped dancing, the waltz music continuing awkwardly.

Draco reacted immediately and deepened the kiss, while Harry pulled them even closer.

They broke apart after a moment, and the room was silent apart from a few shuffles and coughs.

Harry felt miserable, and was about to run out of the room when he heard a clapping sound.

Hermione was clapping, clapping for them. People joined in, and soon the noise was booming.

Students everywhere where cheering, clapping, whistling for Harry and Draco.

They quickly learned that almost the entire school wanted them to date, Harry was just clueless.

"Will you be my boyfriend, Draco?" Harry asked.

"Gladly." He replied with a soft smile.
