"Borrowed Time"
Thick as thieves the last of leaves
In the winter sun
Holding fast this freezing branch
Is home to us
Jumping to his feet, Draco pulled his wand and pointed it towards the snake-man. From the description Harry had given him he knew this had to be You-Know-Who.
"H-how?" He stammered.
The snake-man let out a high pitched laughed that chilled Draco more than the cold night air.
"I have my ways, boy." You-Know-Who hissed. Before he knew it the snake-man was pointing a wand at him as well.
Step, step right over the line
And onto borrowed time
When it's life, not waiting to die
Waiting to divide to divide
Draco could feel it in his heart. This man had no mercy and was going to kill him. However, he could tell that his death would just be to play with Harry's emotion. He looked back at Harry just in time to see the boys' eyes flutter open.
Harry was on his feet, with his wand in his hand faster than Draco could blink. Silently, the blond reached his free hand out and held onto his boyfriends other hand. They wasn't going to let go unless he was died.
As he thought that, he realised that that was most likely going to happen.
Counting stars and passing cars
On the interstate
The end is near I feel it dear,
But I am not afraid
Harry looked up at the stars for what he knew was going to be the last time. He wasn't scared though. He just wanted to know that Draco was going to be safe.
Step, step right over the line
And onto borrowed time
When it's life, not waiting to die
Waiting to divide to divide
Harry gripped Draco's hand tighter as he stepped toward the one man he truly hated. He didn't want to be separated from this boy he'd just found, but if it saved Draco's life then he would happily give his own.
He threw himself at Voldemort shouting out a spell. He wasn't sure which, he just acted on pure instinct.
But you say you're getting tired
You're tired and so am I
When you follow from behind
Draco was surprised and glad that Voldemort had no Death Eaters with him. Harry would have a much better chance in a one on one battle. Every chance he got, Draco would throw an extra spell toward the ugly snake-man, but he was scared of hitting Harry.
As the fight drew on, he saw Harry tiring but luckily You-Know-Who was as well. Silently, he told Harry that he believed in him. Although the other boy couldn't hear him, Draco wanted him to know that he believe he could do it.
Step, step right over the line
And onto borrowed time
When it's life, not waiting to die
Waiting to divide to divide
Harry sent another killing curse at Voldemort as he was hit by an unknown spell. He crupled to the ground and expected the tall form of his enemy to tower over him. However, he suddenly felt arms wrap around him and lift him into a lap.
All he could hear was Draco's voice repeating "You did it. You did it. You did It."
He rolled over and pulled the boy down to look in to his eyes and kissed him hard on the lips, thinking that he would probably never get another chance to. He began to sing the same lullaby that he had put Draco to sleep with on the train.
"I'm tired..." He managed to say before he blacked out.
But you say you're getting tired
You're tired and so am I
When you follow from behind
