Chapter Five

"Harry, you are avoiding me."

"I -"

"Don't even try to deny it, Harry James Potter! Now, you'll be a good boy and you'll tell me what exactly happened between you and Charlie."

"Hermione, please, I told you already that it simply didn't work!"

"Nothing is ever simple. You are hiding something."

"I'll tell you when I am ready. And now I've got work to -"

There was a sound of someone kicking the door, hard; then the sound of someone trying to blast it off its hinges. Hermione's eyes were rather wide but she didn't fail to notice the way Harry's eyes flashed for a moment.

"Are you expecting someone?"

"No, it's just Malfoy and he is very angry. You'd better go. I'll deal with him."

"I am staying right here!"

Harry didn't respond; instead he turned to the door, it opened and very agitated Draco Malfoy came in, wand drawn and issuing bright green sparks. Two seconds later appeared Jerkins. He looked overly enthusiastic.

Malfoy fixed stormy grey eyes on Harry Potter.

"You... fucking fucker! Why the fuck must you fuck up everything?!"

Hermione's mouth dropped open; Harry regarded Malfoy calmly, his eyes were narrowed and very green; Berth found the whole scene hilarious.

"Hermione, Berth, I'd like to speak to Malfoy, alone."

Both of them would have liked to stay but Harry didn't ask, he commanded. Neither of them were Gryffindors enough to cross him.

***

There was silence.

Harry didn't want to break it because he didn't know what to say. I see I am not the only one unprepared.

Draco was still very angry but now that he was reminded of his soul mate's power, he started feeling very uncomfortable. What the fuck I wanted to say? Fuck! Shit! Fucking fuck! Maybe I should leave? NO! I am not a bloody coward! At the very least I'll tell him everything I think about him!

"You are manipulating bastard! I hate you! What the fuck did you want to gain from my finding out that you are my fucking soul mate? Did you expect me to fall in love with you?"

"I thought you had the right to know."

"And why the fuck didn't you just come and told me? Why the fuck you had to devise such a -"

Harry saw red. Malfoy usually had that effect on him.

"And what the fuck would you have said if I'd told you that you were my fucking soul mate? That I am delusional? And, by the way, I only gave you the choice - that book contained about a thousand recipes of potions!"

"Choice! And what kind of choice was that? You knew what I'd choose! And where the fuck is the proof that you didn't put me under Imperius Curse?"

"Maybe it escaped your fucking notice but I am a good guy here! I defeated the last Dark Lord!"

"You only did it to become one yourself!"

"How dare you!"

"Now what? You'll punish me? Torture me? Make me believe the shitty things you believe in?"

"Why the fuck do I bother yourself with you? Get the fuck out of my rooms!"

"No, Potter! You apparently wanted me to find out the truth! You wanted me to confront you! Now you'll tell me what else you wanted from me!"

"How dare you come to my home and order me around!"

"You have been messing with my life for quite a while! In fact you've been screwing my life from the very first time I saw your ugly face! I have some rights!"

"What kind of fucking rights? You should be grateful that you are alive and free!"

"Maybe I should be thanking you for what you did to my parents?"

"As a matter of fact you should! They are alive!"

"Their lives are worse that death!"

"I could have killed them! It's not yet too late!"

"You fucking bastard!"

"So you want them alive? Why aren't you grateful? They deserved to die; I let them live."

"Who the fuck do you think you are to decide who deserves to live and who does not?"

"I am the Chief Warlock of Wizengamot. Society gave me the power to make this kind of decisions."

"Bullshit!"

"No, it's not. By the way, I saved your sorry arse when you tried to kill me!"

"Thank you, Potter! Thank you so fucking much! For everything you've done for me! Now, leave me the fuck alone!"

"No, no, no, Malfoy! We are not nearly done here!"

***

Silence.

"O.K., Potter. If you are so clever, enlighten me what the fuck the knowledge that you are my fucking soul mate changes."

"Surely you know what it means to find a soul mate."

"Well, I've heard lots of fairy tales. Life isn't a fairy tale, Potter."

"For your information, Malfoy, it should become one when a person finds their soul mate. I'll tell you even more! Once we are both dead our souls will become one!"

"And how the fuck do you know that?"

"I have my ways."

"Should I trust them?"

"Yeah."

"So full of yourself you are, Potter."

***

Malfoy somewhat calmed down and stopped to consider the situation. If what Potter says is true then I shouldn't probably be wasting the opportunity. And, well, he is rich, powerful and not that ugly. Oh... how I am tired of Potter-induced poverty! By the way Father told me to become friends with him. Fuck! I shouldn't think about parents when the fucker is around! Wait! Maybe he'll release them.

Harry saw the decision forming in his soul mate's mind. He also saw the reasoning behind; it was very far from ideal, but he decided to try.

Malfoy roughly grabbed the front of Harry's robes and pulled him into a bruising kiss. What came next was very angry, animalistic coupling. And if not for who Harry was it'd have been extremely painful experience, at least for him.

It lasted only a few minutes. Neither of the two soul mates would ever forget it.

Draco collapsed on top of Harry.

Harry lay very still.

Both of them had the same thoughts. There was no phoenix song! Nothing! I feel... dirty, ugh!

***

"Get out."

"What?"

"Get out of my rooms."

Harry's voice was calm but there was unmistakable power in it. Draco winced, hastily fastened his robe and literally ran out.
