"Go on, Harry, I dare you!" said Ron.

"But --"

"No way, Harry. The deal was that if I did what you asked, you would accept a dare from me. Now you have it, and you have to do it. Brave Gryffindor and all that."

"What's he got to do?" Seamus asked Ron, having just caught the end of their conversation.

"He's got to go use a line on Malfoy over there."

"You don't mean he's going to try to pick him up, do you? I mean Harry … and Malfoy? You don't really want --"

"Hell no! I'm just doing it to embarrass Harry and get a rise out of Malfoy. It should be good for the entertainment value alone."

Harry groaned, and Seamus slapped him on the back. "Ah, it's all in good fun then, yeah? Go on, then … get on with it. Let's see the show." He positively beamed at Harry who simply let out another groan.

Making his way across the room, Harry was wondering what Malfoy's reaction was going to be. He couldn't have been more shocked when Ron came up with his dare. He knew that Ron didn't know … nobody knew about his crush. And now, because he was a Gryffindor and wouldn't back down from a dare, he was going to make a complete arse of himself in front of the object of his crush.

"Ahem," Harry ventured.

Malfoy looked up, raising an eyebrow. "Potter? Did you want something?"

"Might I … have a word?" He could feel the blood rushing to his face. He chanced a quick glance towards Ron and Seamus who were watching intently. Malfoy's eyes followed.

"What is it, Potter?"

"Could we talk … over there?" Harry asked, pointing to a more private corner.

"Very well." Once they had moved Malfoy asked, "Now what is it?"

"Er … how'dyaliketoridemybroom?" Harry spilled out incoherently.

"Excuse me?"

Harry cleared his throat, took a deep breath and tried again. "How would you like to ride my broom?" he asked, looking down at his feet.

"Potter? … Potter!" Harry looked up. "Is this some kind of joke? What are you playing at?"

"Er … "

"Did those fool friends of yours put you up to this?"

"Mhm," Harry said, nodding. "A dare."

"A dare?"

"Yeah. A dare to use that horrible line to try to pick you up. Ron figured it would embarrass me and piss you off."

"Oh really? So how would you like to get back at them?"

"Ron."

"Pardon?"

"Ron. I only need to get back at Ron. Seamus didn't have anything to do with it."

A smirk spread over Malfoy's face. "Excellent," he purred. "Play along now, Potter. Just follow my lead."

"Okay," Harry said hesitantly, not sure what he was agreeing to.

He soon found out, as Malfoy smiled up at him, licking his lips lasciviously. "Sure, Potter. I would LOVE to go for a ride on your broom. Any. Time. You. Want." Malfoy made sure his voice carried across the room, although he wasn't too obvious. He stepped closer to Harry with each word.

Harry gaped at him. A quick glare from Malfoy reminded him it was an act. Pushing aside a feeling of disappointment, he played along. "Well, then. How about right now?" Harry asked, moving into Malfoy's personal space, waggling his eyebrows for good measure.

Malfoy responded by running his hands through Harry's hair, and pulling him into a deep kiss. Acting or not, that was really Malfoy's tongue in his mouth, and Harry couldn't help but respond. He was just starting to get lost in the feel and the taste of the kiss when Malfoy pulled away. "Right now would be perfect," Malfoy whispered.

As they left the room, it wasn't only Ron's look of shock that followed them. Leaning over to Millicent, Blaise said, "Draco's been wanting to ride Potter's broom for years. Guess he finally got his wish."

*laughs out loud* Oh, Merlin on a broomstick, they both go their wish!

[sesheta-66.livejournal.com]

I'm all about making wishes come true. :o)

[elleian.livejournal.com]

*giggles* Brilliant! I think that Ron got slightly more than he bargained for there... ;)

[sesheta-66.livejournal.com]

Hehehe. He did indeed. ;)

[tweeney.livejournal.com]

Ahahaha! Oh man, that was so cute! I love it when those two have secret crushes on one another! :D

[sesheta-66.livejournal.com]

Glad you liked it. I suppose Harry will be thanking Ron later. Hehehe.

[piratesmile331.livejournal.com]

Great use of the prompt!!!

[sesheta-66.livejournal.com]

Thanks ♥ I really didn't know WHAT to do with it. At the last minute, a "dare" thought entered my mind, and voila!

[aletes-muse.livejournal.com]

"Draco's been wanting to ride Potter's broom for years. Guess he finally got his wish."

Ohmigod, this line was just so funny and basically made the story for me ... absolutely LOVED that line, made me laugh out loud, and the rest of the story. I just couldn't pass up the chance to read a story called 'Ride My Broom' either. Thanks you so much for posting this! :)

[sesheta-66.livejournal.com]

First, I am cracking up at your icon.

Second, thanks. I had fun with it, and I'm glad I could make you laugh. ♥

[ruinithil.livejournal.com]

Hahaha!!! Ron just killed himself, I know it. Look what he's done!!! *falls over laughing*

[sesheta-66.livejournal.com]

*picks you up* - glad I could make you laugh.

And yeah ... Harry will be thanking him, and Draco will be rubbing it in for YEARS! Heh.

[scrtkpr.livejournal.com]

Loved it! :D

[sesheta-66.livejournal.com]

Yay! Thanks.

[coffeejunkii.livejournal.com]

i bet ron doesn't find the whole thing so funny now :P. this clearly calls for a sequel!!

[sesheta-66.livejournal.com]

No, I don't imagine "funny" is what Ron finds this now.

A sequel is do-able, I think. I'll add to my list.

[coffeejunkii.livejournal.com]

yay for a sequel :D.

[sesheta-66.livejournal.com]

;)

[mordyn4]

LOVED IT! :D Especially, Any. Time. You. Want. XD

[sesheta-66.livejournal.com]

Mmmm ... and the beauty of it is that he MEANT it!

Thanks ♥

[ravenqueen55.livejournal.com]

Cute and sexy, all at once! Very fun.

[sesheta-66.livejournal.com]

Glad you enjoyed it.

[aquila-star.livejournal.com]

Brilliant. Poor Ron. I think Harry owes him a favor now. *winks*

[sesheta-66.livejournal.com]

You know, I really DO love to torment poor Ron. And Harry will be grateful, but since Ron didn't actually MEAN to get them together, I think they're even. ;)

[enchanted-jae.livejournal.com]

Wheeeeeeeeeeeee! Thanks for the ending, especially. I really didn't want them to go their separate ways afterward. *beams at you*

[sesheta-66.livejournal.com]

Yaaaaaaaaaaaaay! Thanks sweets!

You are welcome for the ending. I didn't want them going their separate ways either. ;)

[alaana-fair.livejournal.com]

Ah! This is just too clever, girl! It didn't happen to be inspired just a little by Mel's pic did it? Because that's immediately what I thought of when I read it. Great job as always! *hugs*

[sesheta-66.livejournal.com]

You know, it wasn't ... at least not consciously. But somehow I think that must have been in the back of my mind. *giggles*

Must credit her ...

[alaana-fair.livejournal.com]

I have a feeling that little broomstick will be inspiring many things subconsciously. *g*

[thrnbrooke.livejournal.com]

Oh tooo funny!

[sesheta-66.livejournal.com]

Glad you enjoyed it.

[lackofmendacity.livejournal.com]

Ahahaha, yes! *pumps fist* Yay for accidental setting up! :D

I love your last line, and it's cute that the Slytherin's know of Draco's crush, where as the Gryffs are totally oblivious. *g* I hope Harry realises now it's a bit more than an act. ;)

That was such a fun read, and I'm glad the boys got a shag out of the terrible pick up lines! *hugs*

[sesheta-66.livejournal.com]

Heh. Glad you enjoyed it. Accidental set-ups are fun ... well, maybe not for Ron. ;)

I picture Draco better able to tell Blaise (he doesn't detest Harry in the way Ron hates Malfoy), and also threatening him under penalty of death if he tells anyone. :D

Now that the opportunity presented itself, Draco will make sure Harry knows it wasn't an act. *nods*

[kcstories.livejournal.com]

Very nice. :)

[sesheta-66.livejournal.com]

Thanks ♥

[idontgiveafaux.livejournal.com]

hehe! i loved this! i thought draco would blow harry to smithereens(sp?) what he actually did was the last thing i would have ever expected (and how i hate harry and wish i was in his shoes at that point lol)

[sesheta-66.livejournal.com]

Heh. Glad you enjoyed. (I wouldn't mind being in Draco's place myself). ;)

[graylor.livejournal.com]

*giggle* Delightful--and only Harry would start such a conversation with "Ahem."

[sesheta-66.livejournal.com]

Aww ... *pets Harry* ... he's not the most articulate guy in the world, is he? Hehehe. Glad you enjoyed ♥

[witchdragon.livejournal.com]

yay LOL! poor Ron

[sesheta-66.livejournal.com]

Ah, well ... he tried to embarrass Harry & piss off Draco, so don't feel too sorry for him!

[alisanne.livejournal.com]

Hehehehehe.
Excellent!
This way they both get what they want. :)

[sesheta-66.livejournal.com]

*nods* - And Ron gets what he deserves. *g*

[melmoe1.livejournal.com]

How did I miss this? I loved it.

[sesheta-66.livejournal.com]

Well, you found it now! Glad you liked it, and thanks for the inspiration. *smooches*
