16 - Astronomy Tower // Harry's POV
@dhrmonth
The day started out ordinary for Harry Potter.
He woke up, cleaned his face, ate his breakfast and went to the library to get started on his Astronomy essay.
It was a normal routine. But today, he had this foreboding feeling that he had forgotten something, and no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't put his finger on it.
He sat blankly on an empty chair and started fiddling his wand.
Ron walked to his table, sat beside him and yawned. Harry mirrored him. They had Astronomy that midnight, where the stars are at their brightest and had Divination in the morning. But it wasn't the lack of sleep that had him anxious.
Ron rolled his parchment and opened his Astrology book, then started to write something but came up empty.
"Hey, have you seen Hermione? I'd like her help on the essay.", Ron asked him.
Harry stood abruptly. "Oh, crap! I left my book on the tower. I'll be right back."
Harry hurried up the tower. When he reached the spiral staircase, he heard ... 𝘯𝘰𝘪𝘴𝘦𝘴. Moans of pleasure and grunts of appreciation echoed throughout the floor above and Harry felt his cheeks flush.
"𝘋𝘳𝘢𝘤𝘰, 𝘺𝘦𝘴, 𝘺𝘦𝘴, 𝘳𝘪𝘨𝘩𝘵 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘦."
"𝘛𝘩𝘢𝘵'𝘴 𝘪𝘵, 𝘭𝘰𝘷𝘦. 𝘚𝘢𝘺 𝘮𝘺 𝘯𝘢𝘮𝘦 𝘫𝘶𝘴𝘵 𝘭𝘪𝘬𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵. 𝘠𝘰𝘶'𝘳𝘦 𝘴𝘲𝘶𝘦𝘦𝘻𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘮𝘦 𝘴𝘰 𝘵𝘪𝘨𝘩𝘵. 𝘎𝘰𝘥𝘴, 𝘺𝘰𝘶'𝘳𝘦 𝘱𝘦𝘳𝘧𝘦𝘤𝘵."
Harry was not one to eavesdrop but catching Draco Malfoy in a compromising position would certainly earn the git a lot of demerits - maybe even expulsion. The corner of his lips lifted.
So, Harry slowly started walking up, but stopped short when he noticed a Gryffindor scarf...
then a Gryffindor tie....
then a Gryffindor robe...
This must be a joke.
When his head was able to peek out the tower floor, the sound got louder and dirtier. He could make out the naked back of Draco Malfoy, head bowed to another figure - the Gryffindor girl's back was against the wall, a set of nicely shaped legs wound around his middle.
And there was no mistaking the mop of brown curls hidden from his view by the blonde git's relentless thrusting.
Harry's breakfast was in danger of being hurled out. Is this what it was like to accidentally catch your sister shagging his boyfriend?
He shook his head viciously. The mental image would haunt him forever.
Draco Malfoy let out a loud grunt and Harry covered his ears to drown out the sound that followed after.
Harry cast a Muffliato on his feet and ran down the tower, seriously considering to obliviate himself for good measure.
But then something flashed in his mind - 𝘩𝘪𝘮 𝘨𝘰𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘶𝘱 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘵𝘰𝘸𝘦𝘳 𝘵𝘰 𝘳𝘦𝘵𝘳𝘪𝘦𝘷𝘦 𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘣𝘰𝘰𝘬, 𝘩𝘪𝘮 𝘧𝘪𝘯𝘥𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘔𝘢𝘭𝘧𝘰𝘺 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘏𝘦𝘳𝘮𝘪𝘰𝘯𝘦 𝘴𝘯𝘰𝘨𝘨𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘰𝘯 𝘰𝘯𝘦 𝘰𝘧 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘤𝘶𝘴𝘩𝘪𝘰𝘯𝘴, 𝘏𝘦𝘳𝘮𝘪𝘰𝘯𝘦 𝘤𝘢𝘴𝘵𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘢 𝘴𝘱𝘦𝘭𝘭.
Harry took note to ask Hermione to obliviate him 𝘢𝘨𝘢𝘪𝘯 - or maybe a potent potion.
The day ended with a traumatized Harry Potter and his forgotten Astrology book.
