Authors Note: This is my first attempt at a fan fic of any
sort. Please review it for me. If people like it I will write more. It's a Harry/Draco slash and takes
place after their 7th year at Hogwarts.
WARNING: this is a slash fic, which
means it has m/m interaction. And it's R for mild sexual content. In other words, it's gay. If that's not your cup of tea please turn around now. No need to tell me how discusting you think the
story or I happen to be! Flames will be
ignored. It's not really original, you know?
********
Draco opened the door and walked into the empty flat.
It had been four days
since he got the owl from Dumbledore telling him he had to come home right
away. The place once full of happiness was now dark and lonely.
Picking up
one of the overturned chairs Draco sat down and ran a hand threw his hair.
~~~ Four days ago~~~
He had been away on ministry business when it happened. Alone in his room
at the inn he had been thinking of Harry and how much he wished he was at
home in bed with him when the owl flew threw his window.
Draco you must come to Hogwarts at once. It is a
matter of great importance. ~~A. Dumbledore
Draco quickly packed and set off for Hogwarts.
As he rushed up to the school, Snape was waiting at the door for him.
"Dumbledore is waiting for you in his office young Malfoy. I was
asked to
take you there as soon as you arrived," He said. Draco set his bags
down on
the marble stairs and followed Snape.
When they entered Dumbledore's office Draco noticed that Sirius
Black was sitting in one of the chairs with his head in his hands.
"I just can't believe this has happened," He said.
Draco looked at him. "What happened," He asked.
"Please sit down Draco," Dumbledore said.
Draco shook his head. "I don't want to sit. I want to know
what's so
important I had to rush down here."
Dumbledore sighed. "Draco I'm very sorry to have to tell you this,
but
Harry was murdered last night by Lord Voldemort," He said.
Draco's eyes went wide and he shook his head. "No. No he can't be,"
Dumbledore moved to stand next to Draco.
"Hermione and Ron found him at 9 o'clock last night. They said the
place
looked like a tornado blew threw. Stuff everywhere. They found him
in the
living room. Voldemort used the Avada
Kedavara on him," Sirius said.
Draco fell to he knees shaking. Tears slipped down his cheeks as he
looked
up at Dumbledore. "Where is he? Where's Harry? I want to
see him," He
said. His voice was soft, almost child
like.
"I will take you to him," Dumbledore said.
*****
They walked down the quiet empty halls till they got to the
hospital wing. There, in a bed in the back of the ward, lay Harry Potter.
Draco pulled back the white sheet and stared down at his love. Tears
streamed down his face. "I should have been there with you," he
whispered.
He traced a finger down Harry's cheek and over his lips as he remembered how
wonderful their first kiss had been. He
placed a gentle kiss on Harry's lips.
"I love you," he whispered.
The worst part had been the funeral. Just as soon as they were
finished burying Harry, Draco was clawing at the dirt crying that he wanted
him back. After letting him go on for a few minutes Sirius finally picked
him up
and took him home.
Now here he sat in
the flat they had shared. He knew by looking around that Harry had gone
down fighting. He stood and walked to their bedroom. Harry's
clothes still lay in a heap in the corner waiting to be washed. He picked
up the green sweater that Mrs. Weasley had made for Harry and hugged it to
him. The smell of Harry's cologne still clung to it. Turning to leave the room Draco spotted a
letter on the desk. The
handwriting on it was Harry's. He picked it up.
*******
Draco,
I know you've only been gone a day, but I already miss you. I want to see
you. Meet me at midnight. You know where.
Love,
Harry
********
That night at midnight Draco went down to the Screaming Shack. That was
their special place. He and Harry would sneak off there when they were
still at Hogwarts. They'd spend hours making love on the floor surrounded
by dozens of candles. Even after they graduated they would go there every
now and again just to be alone away from people and all their problems.
~~~~~~Flashback: Christmas Eve, 6th year~~~~~
Draco sat the Slytherin table
eating his breakfast. He had decided to
stay at Hogworts this Christmas to be with Harry. They had been sneaking around for the past two months making out
in empty classrooms and closets. They
had even once been so daring as to give each other blow jobs in the Quiddich
locker room after a game. Yet they hadn't
yet made love. They both wanted it to
be something to remember not a quickie in a closet. It had been weeks since they had last been alone together and now
that the castle was almost completely empty Draco was sure he'd get a chance to
sneak away with Harry.
When the owls flew in to deliver the morning mail a brown
barn owl landed in front of him and dropped a note in his lap. Draco picked it up and read it.
Meet me at 11:45 by the Whomping Willow.
~~HP
Draco shoved the note in his pocket and looked up at Harry
for just a second before going back to eating his breakfast. As the day dragged on he found himself
wishing that time would speed up so he could be with Harry.
At 11:30 Draco slipped out of bed and snuck outside to the
Whomping Willow. He smiled when he saw
Harry and went to embrace him when Harry held up his hand. "Not here Malfoy," He said and turned to
face the tree. Draco looked up and
noticed much to his surprise that the tree wasn't trying to attack them for
once. "What's going on Potter," he
asked, but Harry didn't answer. He lead
Draco threw the secret passage and up into the Screaming Shack. "Where are we," Draco asked looking
around. "Inside the Screaming Shack,"
Harry said, "and I have a surprise for you Draco."
Without another word Harry turned around and waved his wand
and whispered something. The room was
suddenly lit by dozens of tiny candles.
In the middle of the room lay one of Harry's robes and a small
bottle. Draco smiled. "Merry Christmas Malfoy," Harry whispered as
he pulled Draco into his arms. Harry
crushed his lips against Draco's and the paler boy moaned softly. Their hands pulled at each other's
clothes. They had waited so long for
this night. Harry lay Draco on top of
his Robes that were on the floor. It
was then that Draco realized how much he truly loved Harry. He looked up at him and trailed his hand
down Harry's smooth flat stomach and as the dark haired boy slid deep inside
him he knew he would never love anyone else like this ever again.
Afterward they lay wrapped in each other's arms covered by
Draco's robes. "That was the best
Christmas present anyone has every given me Harry. I love you," Draco said softly.
"I love you too Draco…always," Harry whispered back.
~~~~~~End Flashback~~~~~~~~
Draco lay curled on the floor clinging to the letter and Harry's sweater as he
cried himself to sleep.
In the morning Draco awakened to someone tapping on his
head. He groaned and opened one eye to
find the house elf Dobby standing next to him.
"Excuse Mr. Draco Malfoy sir.
Dobby didn't want to wake Draco Malfoy, but Dobby was instructed to find
Draco Malfoy and deliver this to him personally upon the untimely death of
Harry Potter. Dobby has searched
everywhere Harry Potter said to look for Draco Malfoy." Dobby set the small box in front of Draco
and bowed. "Dobby is very sad for the
loss of Harry Potter. Harry Potter was
very good to Dobby." Draco picked up
the box and ran his hand over the top.
He looked at Dobby. "Harry
Potter was very good to everyone," He said softly. Draco opened the box. It
was filled with pictures of the two of them together, a pair of socks one blue
one red, and various other little things.
There was an envelope with his name on it sitting on top of
everything. Draco opened it.
*****
Dearest Draco,
If your reading this then I must no longer be with you
and I miss you so much. First please
give the pair of socks in the box to Dobby for me. He was kind enough to make sure this reached you and he loves
socks so much.
****
Draco stopped reading and looked into the box. He found the socks and handed them to
Dobby. "Harry wanted you to have these
Dobby. He said you love socks." Dobby took the sock and hugged them. "Oh yes sir Dobby does sir. Harry Potter was so generous."
*****
I have left something for everyone I left behind. The Weasley twins get the bag of tricks in
the box your holding, Hermione gets all of my books in the box under our bed,
for Ron I have left my collection of Muggle music….
*****
It went on like this for a few minutes as Harry left things
of his that his friends like or he thought they would like.
*****
Mr. Weasley
gets the Muggle telephone in the closet and the lamp. Mr. and Mrs. Weasley also get 10,000 Galleons from my vault at
Gringots. Everything else in the vault
is for you Draco. I know what I have
left for you is no substitute for having me there with you, but I want you to
know I loved you with all my heart. You
were my everything Draco. I'll always
be with you. Please don't be sad. You know how I hated for you to ever be
unhappy. You can see me anytime you
wish. Just close your eyes and I will
be there with you…holding you so close.
I love you Draco. Nothing not
even death will ever change that.
With all my love now and forever,
Harry
*****
Draco read the letter and tears slipped down his
cheeks. He knew then that he could go
on. He had to…for Harry.
~The End~
