SOMEONE TO LOVE
Ch.1 the Cost of Living

Harry looked off the tower, the sun was beginning to rise, the sky was black mere minutes before but now lighting up. He smiled as he saw the stars begin to fade and a golden orange glow appear in the east. Harry was shivering it was very cold this time of year, He smiled realizing it was Halloween, and then burst out laughing. He didn't know why it was funny, but ironic the same day fifteen years ago his parents died, and now today he will join them.

As the light blue sky was revealed by the gold orb, and the castle became alive with animals all waking up to greet the day, He almost envied them. Not having to worry about death eaters, politics, or classes it must have been a very easy life.

Then the reason why he was up here came back, and so did the heart ache. The smile disappeared and was replaced by a face that was worn and aged far beyond his years, Harry's eyes were moist as tears were forming and falling down his face. The pain was to great and maybe he truly wanted to be dead. Why should he live through the mockery and scorn? Why did Malfoy have to revile his secret? It doesn't matter though, what happened is in the past, and no one will want him, or care for that matter.

And with the small smile realizing that he was about to see his parents and godfather, he jumped off the tower and let the rope hug his neck.

**************

The professors were all quite, there was no noise. No one dared to speak. Finally Dumbledore rose from Harry's bed. Facing the rest of Hogwarts staff, his blue eyes thick with sorrow and pain as if he lost a son more than a student looking from one face to another judging their emotions and reaction.

"Minerva, I must ask what pushed Young Potter to this." Professor McGonagall was crying showing her age; her normal stern stature was gone.

"I…I don't know, I know that he was fine in Transformation class. That was Mr. Potter's last class for the day. I also know that he, Hermione, and Ron were all heading to the library to…. Well to find whatever information they need that has nothing to do with my class but somehow makes him a hero." McGonagall tried to finish without crying but failing and sitting on the bed next to Harry with her head buried in her hands.

"Head Master Dumbledore, if I may say so. I believe that we should bring Miss Granger and Mister Weasley here to find out more? "Professor Snape said with emotion in his voice.

"No you can't do that to them." McGonagall screeched.

"I fear Minerva, They must be told, and we do need answers. Please go fetch them for me but tell them nothing."

"Nothing, I believe they deserve to know!" McGonagall said offended.

"Yes, I must agree" Snape said with his head down.

"I fear we need to see what reactions they have, to see if it was planned or just a hidden random event." Dumbledore whispered without taking his eyes off of the lifeless body.

Within thirty minutes McGonagall was dragging two Gryffindors behind her into the Hospital wing. Hermione yelled out when she saw Harry, and rushed to his side. Ron just rolled his eyes and said "Relax Hermione, He is here at least twice a week, he's fine."

"No, Ron." Hermione said trembling with tears in her eyes. "He'd dead."
*************

Hermione, brushed the tears from her eyes, and tried again. "We were in the Library, and.." She started to cry again, harder than before. So Ron kept going for her.
"We were looking up magic walls, in case we were ambushed by Death Eaters…"
Hermione by now was sniffling and started again. "I never thought he would… he would."
Ron just nodded and said with his head bowed "We were sitting in the library and making jokes at how Hermione can read so fast, that's when Malfoy came, Somehow he had Harry's diary. I wasn't even to sure what the book was until Harry started to freak out." He looked at Hermione then at Harry. "It wasn't until Draco said…"

"He told the whole library Harry's secret." Hermione said with anger in her voice. "We didn't think that It bothered harry that much. I mean I knew it. It was obvious to anyone who had half a brain." Then Ron looked at her shocked

"I didn't know…" Ron said hurt.

"But still, we both didn't care. I mean who Harry fancied is who he fancied…" Hermione said back to her old strength.

"So you're telling me that Harry committed suicide just because he was forced to come out?" Snape said fuming.

"Well it wasn't just that. A lot of Gryffindors, and Ravenclaws were whispering and laughing as they passed and was snickering about Harry being gay. But you must understand that Harry had a very hard life, and his sanity was like walking on egg shells, too much pressure and it all breaks." Hermione said.

"So what are we going to do with him?" McGonagall asked after the two Gryffindors left.

"Under normal circumstances we would give the body to the parents, but seeing how Harry doesn't have any family we will hold him here until the plans are made for a burial. As for the media, I see no reason why they need to know. So unless there is anything else let's try to go on with the day." Dumbledore said, as if he really needed to get drunk. "Oh and Professor Snape I would like for you to talk to Mister Malfoy, and see what his point of view says."

**************

"No, I don't know why Potter killed himself and why do I care?" Malfoy said with a sneer, and walked out of the potions room with a huff. Draco went to the Quidditch field, and sat beneath the stands, and sat on a wooden beam. He knew no one would find him here, and so he put his head in his hands and cried.

It was close to Midnight when Draco had stopped crying. And closer to dawn till he actually left the safety of the stands, as he was walking to the snake pit his feet took him somewhere else. But when he finally stopped he realized he was standing right above harry. Draco wasn't prepared for this and started crying, and all the while he kept repeating "I'm so sorry" again and again. Until he grabbed Harry's hand, feeling how cold it was and with tears in his eyes said "If I would have known I wouldn't have read it at all. I'm so sorry, I stopped when I found out. But do you know what you said after you came out in the diary? Well Harry….. I Love You Too." Draco said whispering with hot tears running down his pale face. "Why didn't you come to me and tell me, I would have told you how long I wished you were in my arms. I would have protected you from the world. Please Harry, please come back." Draco looked at Harry, leaned down and kissed him softly on the lips.

Draco jumped as he heard a shout below him. Harry's eyes shot open, and his mouth opened in an unheard scream, before crashing done wreathing in pain. Slowly he stopped and started crying it was then and only then harry looked at Draco and asked if it was true.
