Moral Of the story

Chapter 2- A New Friend

"It was close to where I live."

"And... where is that?"

Harry felt like he had died and gone to heaven "Surrey."

"Same."

"Privet drive?"

"Same. What number?"

"4. You?"

"10. I didn't know that the Dursley's had another child."

"Oh.OH. No, I'm not their child." Harry reassured Matteo

"Oh, then what are you?"

"Nephew." Harry turned back around to finish putting his things into his locker

"That's news to me."

"How old are you?" asked Harry.

"17."

"Did you know Dudley?"

"Yeah, but I hated the snobby kid in school."

"Try living with him."

"Did you drive here?"

"No. I walked."

"I can give you a drive home if you want after your shift."

"Really?"

"Yeah, but on 1 condition."

"And what is that?"

"I take you out to dinner."Harry felt his eyes widened. Harry knew that he didn't like girls in a sexual way, but he'd never dated a boy before. Harry gulped. "Unless you don't like guys like that?!"

"No. I mean I like guys and I would like to go out with you."

Matteo smiled. "Great. I'll help you out. Are you going to work out after your shift?"

"Yeah, I just never really have before though."

"Then I will help you out."

"Thank you."

"Come on. Don't want you to get yelled at on your first day."

Harry and Matteo walked out of the locker room and started to putter around the gym and talked.

"Where do you go to school?" asked Matteo putting away weights that were left on the ground

"A school in Scotland."

"Boarding school?"

"Yup." Harry grabbed paper towels and a mirror cleaner.

"That sucks."

"Yeah. Where do you go to school?"

"Local. Used to go to private school, but I hated all of the snobby people who thought that they owned the world."

"Yeah." Harry cleaned around and Matteo stood next to him.

"When does your shift end?"

"2:30. I think."

"Same. So it is 12. Why don't we take our break?"

"Okay. I didn't know we had one."

"Well now you know."

Harry and Matteo walked into a separate room that had a table with chairs and a small kitchen.

"Did you bring anything to eat?" asked Matteo

"No. I was rushing out of the house so I could get here on time."

Harry watched as Matteo grabbed 2 sandwiches out of the fridge and handed him one."Thanks."

"Your Welcome. So when do you go back to school?"

"September 1st."

"Then I will make this summer your best."

Harry blushed and ate his sandwich "Why do you want to take me on a date?"

"Well." Matteo finished chewing his sandwich. "1- You're adorable and Clueless.2-You have the most sexist eye. 3- Because I can tell that I will already like you.4- Your hair looks like you just had a wonderful shag in your life. So you can't blame me for already liking you. 5- you should really get contacts because you shouldn't hide your beautiful green eyes behind horrible glasses."

"I'm not adorable." grumbled Harry

"Yeah you are."

"No."

"Yes."

"Am not."

"Are too."

"Shut up," said Harry. Going back to eating his sandwich

"You know I'm right though."

"No you're not."

"Hey!"

"Just saying."

Matteo smiled. "But you know that I'm right."

"Maybe you are. Dunno."

They finished eating and walked back out to the gym and started to continue to talk and help clean up. By 2:30 their shift had ended and they walked back into the locker room and changed into something loose to work out in. Harry waited for Matteo outside of the locker room. Matteo walked out and saw Harry sitting on a bench waiting for him.

"Ready?" asked Matteo
