Deathbystorm:This is certainly a shock. I am actually updating after only a short time. Not to mention that the fourth Harry Potter movie on DVD was a great inspiration. I just paused the movie and pretty much zoomed up on Tom Felton and drooled.Like I said great inspiration. Anyways, now that we are done gushing over how hot the guy who plays Draco Malfoy is, on to the reviews. There are actually seven this time.Wow…that's like a record. I thank you all so much.

Chapter 2
Harry's pov
Harry opened his eyes to find Draco gone. The angel groaned in pain as he slowly sat up. He stayed still for a moment so as to let his energy return to his body. Where is Draco? He wondered. The raven-haired teen slipped through the wall and up to what he suspected was the blonde's room.
Draco was asleep on the bed when he entered through the east wall. It really was a beautiful bedroom designed with green and silver as the primary colours. The bed that the other teen was sleeping on was king-sized and had silver and green silk sheets. He walked over to his sleeping charge. I have to get him out of here but he must do it on his own. I have seen enough, the angel thought decisively. I'll have to influence him somehow…wait a minute…how about through his dreams?
Delighted at himself about the idea that he had come up with, the angel leaned forward to see if Draco was displaying signs of being in a dream. Thankfully, Harry did not have to wait long. The teen on the bed moaned and his eyelids flickered.
The angel pressed his lips to his charge's forehead and was immediately pulled into the dream. Harry found himself on a dark landscape. Draco was right in front of him facing a monster. It looked like a hideously deformed demon. The blonde let out a shout of fright as it leaned forward.
"You are a disgrace to the Malfoy name!" it snarled.
"Jeez. Poor Draco. He doesn't even get a break in his dreams," Harry murmured quietly.
The blonde in front of him whipped around when he heard the angel speak. "Who are you?" he demanded his grey eyes flashing with both anger and fear. The rest of his face did not betray even the slightest bit of emotion.
"I'm your guardian angel as odd as it sounds," Harry said. The monster shrank and disappeared as soon as Draco stopped paying attention to it as was the way of dream demons.
"If you're my guardian angel, then why haven't you saved me from this hell?" the other demanded. "Why were you not to stop my father from doing…doing what he did?"
"I was just assigned to you a few hours ago and I can't interfere directly or else you'll lose me," the raven-haired teen patiently explained. "My only real influence is through dreams or I could take on a human form and even then no one must know who I am. The only thing I've done so far was to heal your internal wounds. Look Draco, you've got to listen to me. You've got get out of there."
"What's the point?" Draco said in the exhausted kind of voice that one acquires when they have been fighting for too long. "He'll just find me again. My father has a lot of connections."
"I can help you with that Draco," Harry replied quietly. "It would not be considered a direct influence if whoever came close to finding you were to suddenly forget what they are doing or for the information to mysteriously go missing off someone's desk. It is only considered a direct influence if I was to physically come between you and your adversary. Just please leave. Trust me, I am not part of your dream and I will be around when you need me."
"Will you come talk to me again?" the blonde asked hating how desperate he sounded.
"Of course," Harry responded quietly. "I've got to go now. Please consider what I said."
"I'll do better than that," the blonde replied. "I'm going to leave as soon as I can find an apartment. My mother set aside an account for me when I was very young so that I could escape Lucius's clutches."
"That's fortunate," Harry replied and smiled as he faded out of the dream. The angel found himself out in the material world once again with his lips still pressed to Draco's forehead. The sleeping teen's face had relaxed and he was now sleeping with a smirk on his features.
Harry walked through the walls. It was time go to the Benefactor for angels on Earth. As all guardians are taught, the Benefactor is the one that will give out money to angels so that they have some where to live honestly for however long they will be masquerading as humans.
Harry only wanted enough for one month's rent though. He absolutely hated not earning that sort of stuff for himself. The raven-haired teen would probably have to get an after school job to pay for the place. Harry was already planning on going to Hogwarts High the same school as his charge went to. He lives in Toronto, Canada if I recall right. Sighing to himself the raven-haired teen steeled himself for the journey across the ocean. It would take nearly all night to do so.
The sun was rising over the gleaming city as he finally arrived at his destination. Gradually, he aimed his flight towards one of the seedier parts of the city. There had always been a Benefactor. Every 50 years there would be a new one. Now it must be duly noted that unlike most of the other previous Benefactors, this Benefactor was an honest soul and one of the only humans who actually had direct dealings with angels. The one thing the man who helped the temporarily earthbound got out of this was the forgiveness for a sin that he had committed in his youth. When he was seventeen, the Benefactor had tried to kill himself. Harry mulled the information that came up into his head as he landed lightly and became substantial minus the wings in front of a worn down building.
The door opened before he could raise his fist to knock. "Well well, Mr. Potter, guardian of Draco Malfoy. I have been expecting you for quite some time," a voice said from the darkness.
