Harry Potter Big Brother

DAY 6 -- EVICTION!

The intercom crackles on.

BIG BROTHER: Housemates, it is time for the eviction. Please gather in the living room. Harry and Draco may join the others until the evictee has left the premises. Thank you.

Harry hears the announcement and jumps to his feet, knocking Draco back onto his behind on the floor.

DRACO: Just when we were getting somewhere!
HARRY: Come on, we have to go to the eviction.
DRACO: What for? Neither of us is getting kicked out.
HARRY: What if it's your father?
DRACO: I say good riddance.

Harry sighs then turns and leaves the room. Draco follow shortly after. Ron and Hermione come downstairs, Hermione's hair disheveled and Ron's cheeks aglow.

HARRY: What have you two been up to?
RON: Nothing, honestly.
HARRY: I hear guilt in your voice.
SNAPE: So Lucius, are you nervous?
LUCIUS: Not at all in fact.
GINNY: I think I'm going to throw up.
DRACO: Ew, get away from me, then.
BB: Housemates. Please say goodbye to Ginny Weasley. Miss Weasley, please gather your things and be on your way.

Havoc breaks loose as Ginny, upon hearing the news, barfs all over Percy, who in turn hurls onto Snape's robes. Snape glares at him murderously but Percy, humiliated beyond reason, bolts for the bathroom upstairs.

RON: UGH! The smell!
HERMIONE: I think we ought to go help Ginny pack. Let's go!

She grabs Ron's arm and they run off upstairs. Dobby runs to get something to clean Snape's robes, Sirius helps Ginny up, Lucius is laughing like a madman, Oliver has his head in his hands, and Draco looks like he's about to be sick as well. Harry pulls him back into the Diary room to escape the commotion.

DRACO: You pulled me out of here for THAT?
HARRY: I didn't know it was going to happen like that!
DRACO: Ugh! You sure know how to kill a mood, Potter.
HARRY: Watch it you're stepping on me--

Draco looks down and sees he is standing on Harry's figure, which now looks like Harry with a big footprint in his midsection.

HARRY: Bloody hell.
DRACO: Sorry.

Harry flops into the chair and sighs resignedly.

HARRY: I'll never make it out of here at this rate.
DRACO: That doesn't have to be a bad thing.
HARRY: Will you just stop it already, Draco?
DRACO: Whoa!
HARRY: WHAT?
DRACO: You called me "Draco". You've never done that before.
HARRY: It slipped. I'll be sure to call you arsehole from now on.

Draco stares at Harry for a moment, then kneels in front of him again. This time he leans close and wraps his arms around Harry in a warm embrace.

HARRY: Um, what are you doing?
DRACO: Shhh. Just let me enjoy it.
HARRY: What about me?
DRACO: Feel free to enjoy it, too.

They hug in silence for a full minute. Finally Draco pulls back, but not far away. The boys look into each other's eyes.

HARRY: (quietly) You're still a git.
DRACO: I know.

With that, Draco leans in close to Harry once more, this time lifting his mouth to Harry's. Harry closes his eyes and allows Draco's lips to softly touch his. They kiss for a brief moment, then Harry pulls away.

HARRY: What are we doing?
DRACO: (reaching up to touch Harry's face tenderly) Whatever we want.
HARRY: But...what's that?...I don't know what I want.
DRACO: Well, I know what I want.
HARRY: What?
DRACO: I want you.
HARRY: But I thought you weren't into guys.
DRACO: I'm not into guys...but there's something about you. Makes a guy change his mind, you know?
HARRY: Did you like it?
DRACO: What?
HARRY: Kissing me.
DRACO: Yes. Did you?
HARRY: Yes.
DRACO: Good.

Draco snakes his hand to the back of Harry's neck and threads his fingers in the boy's hair. He advances again and takes Harry's lips in a passionate kiss, much deeper than their first. Harry allows Draco's tongue to enter his mouth, tracing swirls around the tip of his own tongue. He leans into Draco until they're clutching each other tightly and panting for air. Draco's hands roam down Harry's back, pulling him forward, off the chair. Harry moves to the floor where he kneels with Draco for a second before being pulled down on top of the blond Slytherin. They kiss for a few minutes, oblivious to the happenings outside, Ginny's eviction, and Big Brother's announcement.

BB: Draco and Harry you have one hour to complete your figurines.

Harry feels Draco's hands move to his belt and grabs the Slytherin's fingers to stop him.

DRACO: What's wrong?
HARRY: Not here.
DRACO: Ah. I forgot. We're not alone. Dammit.

The boys get up off the floor and fix their hair. Both are aching to find a nice private area of the house like a closet or perhaps even a bedroom, but they are still locked in.

HARRY: We better finish the figures. Then we can get out of here and go somewhere else.
DRACO: But if everyone sees us going off together - if my father saw--
HARRY: (He turns away from the camera and whispers in Draco's ear.) I do have my invisibility cloak, you know.
DRACO: Here?
HARRY: No, but once we're done here I can get it and meet you tonight.
DRACO: I've got to hand it to you, Potter.
HARRY: Call me Harry. Just not in front of everyone else.
DRACO: I'll try...Harry. Feels funny saying it.
HARRY: Your name feels funny in my mouth as well.
DRACO: (running his hands down Harry's chest) How does my tongue feel in your mouth?
HARRY: Refresh my memory...

Outside the Diary Room, Ron and Hermione have packed Ginny's bags and said their tearful goodbyes. Percy has not emerged from his room, and Snape is upstairs in the shower trying to scrub Percy's vomit off of himself. Oliver has gone outside to practice on his broomstick. Ginny leaves the house in tears, wishes Ron and Hermione well and tells them to say goodbye to Harry for her. Mr. And Mrs. Weasley drive up in their Ford Anglia to pick Ginny up and they take off into the sky.

SIRIUS: That was an interesting eviction.
HERMIONE: I feel so sorry for Percy.
RON: What about poor Ginny? She's the one who got kicked out.
HERMIONE: Yes but Percy lost his cookies on Snape...I mean, that's pretty bad.
RON: I would never want to barf on Professor Snape, true, but he'll get over it.
HERMIONE: I'm not so sure. Percy hasn't come down yet and it's almost dinnertime. Usually he's here before anyone except Dobby.
RON: That's only because Dobby insists on setting the table every night. Anyway, what's with you caring so much about Percy anyway?
HERMIONE: Since he almost drowned - I feel kind of responsible in a way.
RON: It wasn't your fault he was stupid enough to stay underwater that long.
HERMIONE: I know. It's just...(thoughtfully)...ah I don't know. I just hope he's ok.
SIRIUS: Speaking of being ok, I wonder how Harry is. They're due to come out of there in a few minutes.
RON: Don't remind me.
HERMIONE: Ron, what's going on between you and Harry, anyway? Are you fighting again?
RON: What gives you that impression?
HERMIONE: You're acting strangely. Like when you had those fights and weren't speaking.
RON: Everything is fine between us.
HERMIONE: Are you sure? You were awful upset about them being in the diary room together all day.
RON: Yeah well that was then. No worries.

Hermione eyes Ron suspiciously, then heads off to the kitchen. Ron wanders over to the Diary Room door and puts his ear up to it.

RON: What are those bastards up to?

At that moment, the door unlocks and opens, and Ron falls into the room, ending up at Harry and Draco's feet.

HARRY: Ron! What were you doing?
RON: Nothing, I was just passing by and the door opened and this great force--I think it was a vacuum reaction or something; it just yanked me into the room. Better be careful with that thing.

Harry shakes his head and walks out. Draco follows with a flourish of his cloak. Ron jumps up and follows them to the hall. Just before the two boys turn the corner and out of sight, Ron spots Harry looking back at Draco and Draco giving him a tiny nod.

RON: Snape was right! They're......up to something!

Nominations

The housemates are summoned to the rec room after lunch to announce their nominations for next Sunday's eviction.

RON: I nominate Draco Malfoy for 2 points because he's stalking Harry and I think it's weird. I nominate Lucius Malfoy for 1 point putting Tom Riddle's Diary in my sister's cauldron that time. I'm still not over that.
OLIVER: I nominate Percy for 2 points because he nearly drowned and I don't think he should be here. It's too hazardous. I nominate Professor Snape for 1 point because he didn't do anything helpful when Percy was drowning.
DOBBY: Dobby nominates Draco Malfoy for 2 points. Dobby agrees with Ron Weasley and thinks Draco Malfoy is trying to hurt Harry Potter. Dobby nominates Lucius Malfoy for 1 point because Dobby finds it hard to relax in the same house as Lucius Malfoy.
SNAPE: Snape nomin--dammit, Dobby. I nominate Harry Potter for 2 points because I think he influenced Draco in failing the challenge. I nominate Oliver Wood for 1 point because I am sick and tired of hearing that broom whiz past my window.
HERMIONE: I nominate Lucius Malfoy for 2 points for being a total arse when Percy was in trouble. I don't really want to but it's my sense of duty that prompts me to nominate Percy for 1 point. I'm worried about him as well, and it would kill me if anything bad happened to him. (She avoids Percy's surprised gaze)
SIRIUS: I nominate Snape for 2 points because I think it was his negligence that caused Percy to almost drown. I nominate Oliver Wood for 1 point because he doesn't really belong here, and he's not happy. I hear him crying in his sleep sometimes.
OLIVER: I do not!
DRACO: I nominate Ron Weasley for 2 points for spending most of his time in a closet instead of helping out with the house. I nominate Lucius Malfoy for 1 point because--well just because. Do I need a reason?
LUCIUS: (glaring at his son) We'll talk about this later, Draco. I nominate Percy Weasley for 2 points because he's annoying and it was stupid of him to try and kill himself in the pool. I nominate Harry Potter for 1 point because he's corrupting my son!
HARRY: I nominate Lucius Malfoy for 2 points because he just accused me of corrupting Draco.

Ron, Sirius, Hermione, Percy and Oliver all gasp in horror.

RON: Y-y--you...did you just call him...
HERMIONE: Draco?
HARRY: Can I finish my nominations? Good. I nominate Oliver Wood for 1 point because I have heard him crying as well and it's depressing. He needs to be where there's a proper Quidditch pitch.
PERCY: First off, thanks for the huge vote of confidence, all of you. I just can't thank you enough for turning against me like that.
HERMIONE: Percy, it's not that I think you're unstable, it's just that well, this is difficult...
BB: You may discuss the nominations after they have been announced. Please continue with the nominations.
PERCY: Right. I nominate Lucius Malfoy for 2 points and Draco for 1. I have my reasons and I don't think I need to share them. I'm feeling particularly vulnerable right now anyway. I can't take any more rejection and picking.
SIRIUS: We weren't picking on you, Percy--
PERCY: Leave it. I'm going upstairs. (He stomps up the stairs and leaves the housemates in stunned silence.)
HARRY: I think we really hurt his feelings.
HERMIONE: I'm going to see if he's ok. Maybe he just needs to talk. Ron, Let me know what happens with the final tally. (She goes upstairs to find Percy)

BB: This week there are three candidates for eviction: Lucius Malfoy, Percy Weasley, and Draco Malfoy. Thank you.

DAY 7 EVENING--Nomination Aftermath

After the nominations have been announced, Harry runs into the Diary Room and locks himself in.

HARRY: I can't believe it! They nominated Draco! Just when we were getting to know each other - sort of. Just when things were getting good. Now he'll probably get voted out. Please don't vote him out! I'm begging you! Vote out his wretch of a father instead. I just couldn't take it if Draco left. I'd be stuck here with Snape and Dobby and Lucius and Wood and his crazy broomstick practice. I wonder if Draco's upset? I better go find out. I have to be there for him now. It's a delicate time.

He leaves the Diary room and goes off to find Draco. He finds him sitting on the floor next to Harry's bed.

HARRY: What are you doing in here? Are you ok?
DRACO: I just wanted to get away from everyone.
HARRY: Even me?
DRACO: Would I be in your room if I wanted to be away from you? I knew you'd come up here, eventually.
HARRY: Where's Ron?
DRACO: Downstairs somewhere. Or maybe in a closet snogging with Granger.
HARRY: (laughing) He's funny. I never even knew he liked girls till I saw him with Hermione. I always figured him a lad's lad. You know what I mean?
DRACO: Do I. But he doesn't have what you have, Harry.
HARRY: What's that?
DRACO: The ability to make me so hot I think I'm going to finish before I even start. No one's ever done that to me. And the funny thing is, you don't even need to touch me. It's just looking at you - being near you.
HARRY: I never knew you, well, had a heart. You were always so damn mad, so mean to everyone.
DRACO: Watch it, Potter, I'm still mean! (smiles)
HARRY: (sitting down next to Draco on the floor so that they are hidden from the doorway behind the bed) Are you worried?
DRACO: A little. I honestly don't think I'll get voted out but you never know.
HARRY: I about fell over when you nominated your father. That took some guts.
DRACO: I'll probably get beaten for it later, but it was worth it.
HARRY: But if he gets kicked out, you won't have to think about him being on your back. You'll be free of him, at least for a while.
DRACO: Yeah.

The boys are silent for a time, then Harry touches Draco's hand tentatively. Draco looks into Harry's eyes, then moves in close so Harry can feel Draco's breath on his lips. They stay there, only an inch apart, for a moment. Then Harry claims Draco's lips in a soft and deep kiss. Draco grabs Harry and pulls him against his body tightly, as if he doesn't ever want to let go. All of the tension from the past week has built into a fever pitch and neither boy are aware of what's going on around them. They see, hear and feel only each other.

HARRY: (breaking the kiss to take a panting breath) Draco, you can't go--I won't make it here without you.
DRACO: Shhh...no one says I'm going anywhere.

Draco runs his fingers through Harry's hair.

HARRY: Promise?

DRACO: I promise.

They kiss again.

HARRY: (speaking between kisses) We...should close...the door.
RON: WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING?

Harry and Draco break apart and jump up. Their hair is mussed, robes askew, faces bright red and both can't catch their breath. Ron stands in the doorway, surveying the situation.

HARRY: RON!
RON: Yes, it's me, Ron. What were you doing with that---Slytherin? Why were you fucking snogging him on our bedroom floor? (to Draco) You. Out. NOW.
DRACO: Make me, you little Weasel!
RON: That is IT. I'm reporting you two to Big Brother. Maybe he'll evict the both of you!
DRACO: For what?
RON: For...for...for making out on the floor of MY room!
HARRY: So it's ok for you to make out in a closet but I can't do it here?
RON: That's not the point.
DRACO: Then what IS the point? (He adopts his familiar smirk) You jealous?
RON: (blushing crimson) NO!
DRACO: Right. That's why you look so guilty. You want him, just admit it. You want to fuck Harry Potter.
HARRY: Draco, please...
RON: You're sick, you know that?
DRACO: Go back to your little mudblood if she'll have you. If your brother hasn't gotten to her first.
RON: What is that supposed to mean?
DRACO: Figure it out. (To Harry) I'm going outside.

He leaves the room.

HARRY: Ron, it's not what you think--
RON: I just can't--I don't understand, Harry.

HARRY: I don't either. I mean maybe I do. I don't know. You know how you feel about Hermione, right? Well I feel that way about Draco. I can't help it.
RON: I don't want to talk about it. I need to go ask Big Brother to move me to a different room. You've desecrated the floor in here. Not to mention ruined a perfectly good friendship. I hope it was good for you. (He storms out and loudly runs downstairs.)

Harry sinks onto the bed, his head in his hands.
