chapter 6 part 2

I accidentally posted the last chapter before it was done

Harry's point of view

I caught draco in my arms and scooted up in the bed pulling him with me and twisting so I was sitting up where he was and he was in my lap.

Looking down at his beautiful eyes, and plush lips, I really wanted to kiss him. But I knew that if I did we would never talk about things. So I sighed and thought.

Though Draco was from a wizard family it was obvious that for some reason he didn't know about mates. And because of all the time I spent with Hermione I knew a lot.

Everything I thought I forgot came back in a rush I remember studying nights and days bingeing in the library reading everything I could and then forgetting it the next day or even hours later.

I honestly thought that there was something wrong with me and maybe I had sum muggle learning disorder. But to know this was because Dumbledore was erasing my memory relieved me but it also made me mad.

I was  often in the restricted area under my cloak. Actually it seemed I would be in the library more often than Hermione. So now just thinking of a subject would bring up an entire index of information that I was surprised at the vastness of.

Knowing I could answer my mate succinctly on almost any subject, led me to give him a very vague question.
"What do you want to know?, I asked him as I cuddled him deeper into my chest.

Why are you so different now? Like your power is off the charts and you don't even look the same. And I don't know like your eyes are clearer... like you don't look as confused. He said while looking up at me. His voice a little lost.

Dumbledore has been putting power blocks on me and and all other types of spells and stuff. Thats what I found out at the bank yesterday. I had to take them off myself.

What! Why did Dumbledore do that? Draco said an adorable look of confusion crossed his face.

I don't know. I said frowning.
But I'm going to find out why. You know lily isn't even my mom.

Draco gasped in my lap the confused look growing deeper. Then who is? He asked his mouth gapped. The desire to sink my tongue into his mouth crossed my mind. But I tried to focus on the conversation.

Professor Snape is.

WHAT! He shouted jumping up in my lap. Not my uncle! His eyes where wide with curiosity.

Yeah it was on my birth certificate. The only way I think that's possible is if my dad and Severus where mates.

What! Two men could be mates. Draco asked happiness and confusion crossing his face. It was a weird expression that had me holding back chuckles.

Yeah, didn't your parents ever tell you about mates. I asked once again confused by his lack of knowledge. Especially since he is such a know it all.

Well they tried to tell me but they started talking about girls and stuff.  I wasn't interested so I put a wandless sound blocker spell on them so I couldn't hear anything they said. He said looking sheepish.

Why? I asked interested in his reasoning. I knew about Draco's love for knowledge because a lot of the time I was in the library Draco was too, giving me time to observe him without him knowing.

I know I sound like a creep but when he is around I couldn't help looking at him. Even before the mating bond took place I was already in love with him. But holding him in my arms I couldn't help but feel like something was missing. I know I shouldn't feel like this but I do.

I pushed the feeling of incompleteness aside and tried to focus on my mates response.

Well, he said looking off a glazed look coming to his eye. I was about nine when they tried to have the conversation, it was a couple of weeks after my birthday and I was playing with my new toys. When they told me they had something important to tell me.

So off top I was instantly uninterested. The only thing I could remember them saying is (" Son we want to tell you about mates. When you find the girl you are supposed to spend your life with...) and that's the last thing I heard. At the time I already knew I liked boys but I  didn't want to tell them yet so I just ignored them and everything they were saying.

Now I feel kind of foolish because if I had talked to them I'd probably know two men could be mates. He said chuckling a little.

But I do know that something isn't right. He said frowning a little.

What do you mean baby? I asked him.

Well when I see my parents or other mated couples they always seem so complete. Like if it was just them on the earth with no food or water they would still have everything they needed. But right now sitting in your lap I'm so happy but I feel like something or someone is missing. I... I just dont feel whole. You know? He asked. His eyes begging me to understand where he's coming from.

And sadly I do. Though right now is the happiest I've been in a long time I still feel like something is missing.

Maybe we have another mate. I said looking down at him.

Really you can have more than one mate? He asked his eyes once more wide with confusion.

Yes that usually happens when one mate is extremely strong and dominant and another is extremely submissive. They usually have another mate who evens them out by being both submissive and dominant.

Meaning they are too submissive to be a purely dominant mate and too dominate to be a purely submissive mate. I explained to him.

Suddenly a frown crossed his face. I gently rubbed the lines out of his forehead. What's wrong babe? I asked.

What if it's a woman. He said the frown becoming deeper.

I laughed, babe we wouldn't have a female mate unless you secretly like girls. His nose scrunched up in the classic ewe face.
One of us would have to be at least attracted to girls to have a female mate.

His eyes widened when he finally got what I was saying.
But what about Ginny and Cho Chang?
He asked about the few girls I had dated over the years. In fact me and Ginny were still together.
Well, I said looking off. Cho and I weren't really together she asked me out to make Cedric Diggory jealous figuring if he saw her with someone  else he would get his act together and I said sure because really I was bored and loved making fun of him. So we both knew going in we weren't really interested in each other.
And what about Ginny? He asked me looking down.

Well, I said huffing slightly. Ginny is bisexual and she really likes girls. She was afraid of what her parents would say so she asked me out to throw them off her trail when they started asking her those questions. You know the ones the super nosey parents ask during dinner. I said looking at him.

So you really don't like girls? He asked joy lighting his face.

No draco I've only been attracted to two people and their both men. I said a faint blush rising to my cheeks.

Who are they? He asked jealousy obvious on his face.
Well one of them is you and the other is-   I was cut off when a loud growl rumbled through the room.
