Song- Hate Me

Draco realized quite quickly that there were far too many angry people in front of him, his father included. So he grabbed Harry's hand, and tilted his head, indicating Pansy and Hermione should follow.

Hermione reached out and grabbed the redhead's- Ron's?- hand and tugged him up, and they quickly followed Draco back to his room.

Draco slammed the door, breathless, and turned to see a shocked Blaise standing there.

"And you are?" he asked, looking irritated, and staring at Hermione and Ron.

"Straight, apparently," Ron breathed, looking him up and down.

Blaise wrinkled his nose. "Pity, because I'm a boy. Now who the hell are you?"

Ron's face dropped in surprise. Hermione glanced at Draco.

"Is this Blaise?" she asked sweetly. Draco nodded. "Hi Blaise, I'm Hermione."

"Oh. You're the slut who broke my best friend's heart," Blaise said bitterly.

Hermione's face dropped. "Well-um-yeah-but-"

Pansy cut her off. "Blaise, for fuck's sake, stop being a dick for four seconds!"

Blaise glared at her. "You're not the future queen anymore, Pansy. I don't have to listen to you."

"But you do have to listen to me," Draco said, irritated. "Hermione broke up with Pansy because she was marrying me. We just came out in front of the whole fucking country and we're kinda scared now, so if you could stop being a dick, that would be great."

"I know," Blaise said, his face dark. "I was watching, up until the part where you fucking outed me without permission."

Draco felt the blood drain from his face. "Blaise-"

"Don't. That wasn't for you to say. People are more likely to be accepting of you liking boys than me wanting to be one."

"Blaise, I was just talking. I needed the people to understand-"

"Understand what? That I'm a fucking freak? Fuck you, Draco."

"Don't be such a dick!" Ron shouted, irritated.

Blaise turned to him. "You had potential, until you opened your fucking mouth. Fuck off, ginger." He stormed out of the room.

Draco sighed, sitting on his bed and placing his head in his hands. "I didn't mean to out him," he murmured.

Harry wrapped an arm around his shoulders. "I know."
