Dedication: For C. Adrien Cummings, my first (and, so far, only) reviewer and requester. Your favorite pairing; how appropriate! I tried to make this one a little happier than my last "chapter", and it isn't explicit or it'd ruin the mood of your song choice. Enjoy, m'dear.

Disclaimer: I AM NOT J.K. ROWLING! Therefore, these aren't my characters. The songs aren't mine either; I'll tell you whose they are.

Draco and Harry: "Escape", Hoobastank

"Another day goes without any change/ The feeling we live with still remains…"

"Kreacher! Are you around?" The voice rang out in the silence of number twelve, Grimmauld Place. The green eyes of the young man it belonged to scanned the room for the house-elf he had called for.

"What can Kreacher do for you, Master Harry?" Turning his head, Harry saw a small figure scuttling out of the kitchen. Loads cleaner than he had previously been, and also much nicer for the wear, Kreacher had actually become one of Harry's favorite inheritances from his late godfather. Not that he actually referred to the house-elf that way; Hermione would murder him in his sleep if he did.

"Has any post arrived for me today that you know of?"

"Oh, yes, sir. Minutes ago, from Malfoy Manor. Kreacher read it, just as you told me to. It seems Master Draco has finally agreed to your begging, sir."

Harry laughed. "I never beg, Kreacher. But I am glad to know that Draco finally sees things the way I do. Has he said when he plans to arrive?"

"Upon the hour, sir. Shall Kreacher set an extra dinner place for him?"

"Please."

Forty-five minutes later, a young blonde Harry's age arrived, holding three bags full of belongings.

"So, how did old Lucius take it?" Harry asked after throwing the bags into the hallway and placing a loving kiss onto the lips of his visitor.

"Horribly. Told me to never plan on setting foot back home again. So you had better never plan on breaking my heart, Potter, or I'll have to hex you back to the Founders' Age."

"Don't worry. I won't. Welcome to the rest of our lives, love." With that, he grabbed Draco and carried him piggyback over the threshold of what was now their home.

"Escape to a place where we'll be together, together everyday…"
