Chapter 17

Harry's POV:

Harry rushed into the hospital wing.

"Draco!" He says, catching Draco's attention immediately.

"What, Potter?" Draco asks.

"You... Are... On..." He struggles to catch his breath, "Veritaserum."

Draco looks at him with wide eyes, "Oh... Uh... Harry, I meant all that I said. No!" He groans in frustration. "How many brain cells do I have?!"

Harry chuckles softly, "Uh... I guess being seen as attractive is a compliment? So... It's ok."

Draco blushes heavily. This is terribly awkward. "Uh... Yeah." Draco laughs awkwardly.

Does this mean Draco likes boys? Is that why he got so upset when Harry joked about it? "Uh... Draco?"

"Yes?"

"Does this mean... You're gay?" He mutters. Draco simply stares at the blanket. "Well... I-if you are that's ok..."

"I don't need your pity, Potter." Draco sneers.

Harry stares at him, suddenly feeling the urge to right hook the boy just as Hermione did in third year. "Say that one more time, I dare you."

Draco scoffs, "What will you do if I do say it, huh?"

Harry gulps. He didn't expect that question. "Uh..."

Draco smirks at him, making him feel a strange swirling feeling in his stomach and shivers down his spine. He noticed the great contrast of Draco's skin and his lip color. His lips were pale pink whereas his skin was pale white. It was quite attractive, really. They looked so soft, his lips. However, so did his hair. He never noticed how silky it looked even without the gel.

A part of him just wanted to reach over, stroke his hair, then lean in and-

"Hey, Draco!" Harry snapped his head over to see Blaise Zabini sporting a cheeky smile.

He sneered. "Are you serious?" He asked him.

"What do you mean?" Blaise asked. His 'innocence' was rather hysterical. He wasn't going to get away with this.

"You know what happened! Don't act like you don't know. You're Pansy's friend, after all, not to mention a Slytherin."

"What the bloody hell are you on about, Potter?!" Blaise shouts.

"Pansy spiked his drink with veritaserum! Not only him, though, Neville as well! But it's not like you would care. I bet you're in on it." Harry sneers once more.

Blaise stares at him and Harry smirks. He got him. "What?!"

"Yeah, I heard them talking! Pansy and some Xavier guy. They plan to humiliate them both! What a great friend you are!" Harry shouts.

"Oh, so two Slytherins do something wrong and all of the sudden it's all of us?!" Blaise shouts.

"Not all of you, just three of you. I mean, come on! You're playing with Neville! You're making him think you wanna be his friend when really you're just planning to humiliate him! How revolting!" Harry shouts.

Blaise raises his eyebrows and lowers them before shaking his head with a soft chuckle. "You know nothing, Potter."

"You think I know nothing?!" Harry shouts.

"You really don't," Draco mutters. Harry snaps his head towards him and looks at him with wide eyes. "Honestly, Potter, it's possible that Pansy could've done that. However, you can't say Blaise did it. At that point, you're just assuming. Assuming mostly that all Slytherins have bad motives. That there is revolting." Draco finishes.
