The Silver Snakes

Chapter 8 - A Morning Talk and a Meeting with the Death Eaters.

Harry really did not want to wake up the next morning, even though he knew that he had to.

Today was the day that he was going to be introduced to the Death Eaters, all people that wanted to kill him. He knew that Voldemort would not let him come to any harm, but that did not mean that they would not draw their wands on him when they saw him.

Harry just snuggled up closer to the thing that was producing so much heat for him. It was only then did he realise that the warm pillow he was lying on was moving, when he moved his hand to inspect what it was he realised he was lying on a pale chest.

Everything from the previous day then came back to him. Shopping with his father and getting his new school supplies, getting his new wand, finding out that he is part Vampire and Veela, he has a mate, him and Draco admitting that they had feelings for one another and then going to bed with Draco.

"Hey Harry, what's wrong? You seem to be in deep thought." Draco said from below him. Everything about Draco made Harry go weak at the knees and his brain to go to mush, even the blonde's voice made his body act strange. Harry did not know this but the same thing was happening to Draco as well, even more so since Harry was part Veela, known to attract their mates even from their voice.

"Oh nothing Draco, I'm just shocked at how my life has changed." Harry said. He was, he didn't expect Voldemort to as nice as he was, or that Voldemort would become his father, or that Snape was really nice and would become his dad, or even the fact that he would have Draco Malfoy as a mate.

"Yeah if anyone told me this would be how my life would be I would have laughed. But I have to say I would not change a thing, I am quite happy that it was you who turned out to be my mate." Draco said honestly, his ears going a shade of pink.

"Oh really why?" Harry asked. He had fell in love with Draco in his second year, but he wondered if Draco liked him before they knew they were mates or if he just liked him now because they were mates.

"Oh yeah, you see I have had a crush on you since 1st year, that is why I offered you the hand of friendship, I thought that if you became my friend then we could progress into being more. When you turned down my hand I was so heartbroken, the only way that I could talk to you or be around you was being you enemy, you have no idea how much it hurt me having to say those things to the one I love." Draco said, he was crying and he knew it.

Harry was shocked at what he was hearing, Draco had liked him for this long and he never even noticed. Harry always knew that he had an interested in Draco but based on what others were telling him about the Malfoy's he was reluctant to be with him, so he denied the feelings. However they came to a head in third year and he knew that he could not deny the feelings that he had for the blond, this was the reason he never accepted dates from those that asked him, and found it disgusting when Ginny had kissed him.

Harry had never told his friends that he was gay, back then when he was being manipulated by them they were important to him and he did not want them to know that about him. "Oh Draco I have always had a crush on you, but with what the others were saying about you and your family I didn't think I wanted you anymore and denied the feelings. I realised I couldn't and fell in love with you in third year, I am sorry that I made you suffer." Harry said, wrapping his arms around the slightly smaller boy, and holding him close to his body.

"We were as bad as each other Harry, but we have to promise now, that we are never going to be separated ever again." Draco said. Both Draco and Harry had never dated, never kissed and never had sex with anyone as they knew they wanted to save all of that for one another, so both of them were new to whole thing.

"That is one promise that I want to keep." Harry said. He then grabbed Draco's chin and lifted the boys head so that his now blue eyes and Draco's now red eyes met one another. The mix of the ruby and the sapphire eyes was something to see. They both knew that when they bonded their eyes would change once again.
