Warning: More Angst... Sorry!! Also story will be very AU as well
Disclaimer: JK owns the pretty boys, I just get to play rough with them as long as I put them safely back and make no money off the telling of their exploits.
Author's Notes: This will be a 25 part series written for both groups. I was going to write a sequel to one of my other stories but then I saw the first prompt and this bunny appeared and so far it seems to be getting fed well...  This story has totally ignored the events of the 7th bk and changes major events of the 6th book as well. Its not meant for canon accuracy but as a fun, entertaining means of getting the boys together for xmas. Enjoy!! :D


Christmas at War by HPFangirl71
Part 9: Confrontations…
Harry looked into Draco’s pale grey eyes, almost terrified at just what his reaction might be to Harry’s heartfelt confession.

“Draco, I’m sorry. I never meant for it to come out like this…” Harry began but Draco quickly cut him short.

“Its okay Harry, but we need to talk… In private.”

His last words were geared specifically toward Ron and the others. The tone made him nervous but he quickly followed Draco to his room.  Draco positioned himself near the window, his back turned from Harry as he closed the door shut tight behind him.

“Draco, I really am sorry. I never meant to tell them about us; it just sort of slipped out…”

Harry wrung his hands together. He was pretty sure that his conversation with Ron had upset the blonde in some way. He only wanted to make it better if he could. Approaching Draco, he placed a tentative hand on the man’s shoulder. Draco only turned his head slightly but Harry could see the heartfelt feelings written in the man’s grey eyes. The open love and desire was almost more than Harry could bear. The man was so incredibly beautiful and he found himself wondering at the sudden childlike wonder shining upon the grown man’s face.

“Did you really mean what you said out there?”

Draco’s voice came out husky with emotions as he turned to face Harry full on.

“You mean about being in love with you?” Harry questioned back.

Draco just nodded silently as he awaited Harry’s answer.

“Of course I did, I wouldn’t have said it if I didn’t. Its okay, Ron and the others will get used to the idea eventually. I didn’t mean to tell them the way I did but they were bound to find out sooner or later… better it be sooner, I guess.”

Draco reached out to let his fingers gently caress the curve of Harry’s cheek and he let out a long contented sigh.

“I have to go back”

The words came out in a rough whisper, yet they nearly took Harry’s breath away.

“No…” He said adamantly, “I won’t let you!”

Harry grasped his fingers to Draco’s hand, bringing them to his lips in a fervent kiss He then moved forward to press his lips against the crook of Draco‘s neck. The man‘s head tipped back, allowing Harry better access and he could feel Draco‘s fingers exploring the back of his head.

“Please Harry; don’t make this any harder than it has to be…”

Harry looked again into the shimmering grey eyes and he saw a flicker of fear cross them.

“You’re not going back Draco, you hear me… you’re not!”

Harry could hear his own voice cracking as he made the feeble demand.

“I have to Harry, they have Lovegood and as strange as she is, she doesn’t deserve to be my aunt’s prisoner”

“Neither do you!” Harry cried out.

“Really? Is that so Harry?” Draco said as he slid his shirtsleeve up, exposing the ebony tattoo that lay upon his flesh.

“I deserve this and so much more for the things I’ve done”

“Stop it Draco! This isn’t about who’s been naughty or nice! It’s about life or death and I won’t see either of you killed at the hands of those monsters!”

“There’s no other way Harry”

No Draco, there has to be another choice. Please, I can’t lose you”

Draco pulled him in for a brazen kiss that was filled with all the feelings that Harry knew Draco couldn’t allow himself to put to words. Draco again tried hard to convince Harry that he was right but he wouldn’t let himself be swayed. Instead, he wrapped his arms around Draco and pulled him close. He clung to him as if he’d disappear at any moment and finally Draco dropped the subject. Harry felt utter relief as Draco gave up and wrapped his arms around Harry’s body. Harry felt the warmth of soft kisses lingering upon his neck and he let out a contented sigh.

They’d find another way to deal with Bellatrix. One that didn’t include using Draco as bait. Harry knew it might be dangerous but he also knew it was worth the risk. Draco was worth any risk… He’d finally realized just how much he loved Draco and now that he’d figured that out, he’d be damned if he’d ever be forced to let him go….
