Hello, readers. Sorry this took so long. I would start writing then it would turn in a direction I didn't want, but I think this is good.
Anyway, enjoy the read.
"Leaving?" Draco asked
"Leaving, we're going somewhere new, finding a new cave" Fenrir responded
"Why?" Draco asked again
"This isn't a safe place anymore."
Draco frowned, not safe. His daddy had always put wards up wherever they were staying. The idea of a place not being safe had never really crossed his mind. Harry, on the other hand, knew exactly what not safe meant. Before Remus and Fenrir had taken him, his cupboard had been his only safe place, the only place where he wouldn't get hurt.
"We're going somewhere safe?" Harry asked
Fenrir nodded, "We're going to a new cave, it's safer and bigger."
During their little talk, Remus had finished packing the important stuff "Where are we going?" Remus asked, really asking 'Which way did they go?'.
"To the South Cave. It's bigger so we'll be more comfortable and the trees there are so big you can walk from branch to branch." Fenrir explained, the last part more to Harry and Draco to pike their interest.
It worked, Draco and Harry were excited now. "When are we leaving?" Draco asked
"As soon as Remus finishes packing everything"
Remus was now holding a handful of shrunken bags "We can go now" Remus said.
Draco and Harry raced out of the cave before coming back a few seconds later.
"Which way is is?" Draco asked
Harry and Draco were running around in the large open space in the new cave. This cave was a great deal bigger than the old one with 2 offshoots that could be bedrooms and a back entrance, that Fenrir covered with a rock, though with a little work Harry and Draco were able to move it enough so they could squeeze by it.
Draco and Harry were ecstatic, this cave was deeper in the forest. The trees were bigger and closer together, so light barely made it through the canopy and there was a river nearby.
Fenrir and Remus were having a hard time keeping an eye on them. The two were supposed to be staying inside until everything was set up.
"Have you seen the boys?" Remus asked Fenrir
Fenrir looked up "Their not with you"
"I turn my back for 1 minute, not even a full minute and they're gone"
"How long have they been missing" Fenrir asked standing up.
"Ten minutes or so"
Fenrir made his way outside and heard… Giggling? from the treetops.
Fenrir looked up and there were Draco and Harry sitting on a tree branch.
Since the two didn't have a snitch, they were up in the trees instead. It looked like the two were playing was excited. He and Draco were hide'n'seek, (actual tag not Harry Hunting (Harry was excited)) Draco had started counting and Harry had immediately climbed up a tree, trees were always his go to hiding place since Dudley couldn't climb trees.
Draco, when he finished counting, was confused, he had looked just about everywhere he could think of on the ground. Suddenly the leaves rustled and Draco looked up to see a flash of red, Harry's shirt. Draco quickly made his way over to a tree to start climbing it.
With Draco in the trees, their game of tag quickly turned into jumping from tree to tree. Without their notice they were slowing making their way to the top of the trees. Soon they broke the canopy now able to see the clouds and sun.
"We should probably make our way back down Draco" Harry suggested.
"Why?"
"I don't think we were supposed to go outside. Remus is probably looking for us"
Draco nodded in agreement. The two started making their way down. Seeing Fenrir and Remus looking for them Draco giggled, he put his fingers to his lips in the universal shushing motion. When Fenrir looked up, Draco jumped down, Fenrir catching him, Harry following soon after.
"Its really fun here" Draco said as Fenrir put him on the ground.
"We like it here" Harry said from in Remus's arms.
"Do ya?" Fenrir asked picking Draco up upside down
Draco giggled "Hey, put me down!" he exclaimed
Fenrir threw Draco into the nearby river.
"I'm glad you like it" Fenrir said as Harry wiggled out of Remus's arms not wanting to suffer the same fate as Draco.
Remus wasn't having any of that and was soon running after Harry, who soon followed Draco into the river followed by Remus and Fenrir.
So I'm still alive. This is probably where someone would say that they will update more often. But...I'm not even going to lie. My schedule barely gives me time to eat. I'll try but I'm not going to make any promises. Anyway sorry about the 9 month delay. I'll try to make it shorter next time.
