Day: 1

Stage: comfortably


Alchemy Friday morning was, in Harry's opinion... just above History of magic in its ranks of sheer boredom. His usual retaliation to Draco's highly advanced Newt level classes was too complete ... or attempt ... homework, essays or reports. Once those was completed his next plan of action was to pull out the Autobiography of Godric Gryffindor that Hermione has given him for his birthday... but to Harry's surprise, Dumbledore himself taught Alchemy.

Every time Harry saw his headmaster's twinkly blue eyes, a shot of betrayal would enter into his heart. It took a long time and a strained betrothal bond before Harry would even acknowledge Draco point of view... but once he did, it was hard to unsee it. While Dumbledores end plan was overall pure, Harry couldn't help but feel manipulated and right now his retaliation was a Juvenal attempt at disruptiveness.

Harry had attempted to engage both Hermione and Draco in convosaion only to be given various shushing noises.

"Harry, perhaps you can use this time to start your essays? I am sure professor Slughorn gave you one that involved the ingredients and method of the X potion?" Dumbledore causally mentioned, after hearing Harry's third unenthusiastic comment to Hermione.

"I finished it Arithmancy on Wednesday" Harry snapped back.

"I am sure you can find something to do my boy. Perhaps I can assign you a reading text?"

"Draco... this is boring" Harry loudly replied for the umpteenth time "I can't believe you take this subject voluntarily".

"Will you stop whining!" Draco finally said, 20 minutes into class. His quill near close to snapping.

"But I am bored" Harry whined back

"Doesn't mean the rest of the class needs to hear about it"

"Rest of the class? Draco there is 5 people in here! Six if you include me!"

"Harry, please" Hermione begged "you are making it hard for Dumbledore to teach"

"Actually Harry... I could use you for this demonstration" Dumbledore said. "Come forward my boy"

Harry's heart begun to race... he doesn't know about Harry's knowledge of his manipulation... so... he wouldn't try anything too reckless... but then again, it's not like he's previous attempts have been rainbows and picnics.

"Just do it" whispered Draco

By the time Harry was at the front of the class, he was on the cusps of the tether- which resulted in Draco having to sit on his desk, leaning forward slightly.

"As I was saying by pairing moon, earth and life" Dumbledore, at this point had his wand pointed at Harry, tracing the elemental symbols onto Harry's face. "You would create a formulation- that once activated will physically enlight a wizard's magical energy" Dumbledore waved his hand. White light begun to swirl around Harry with A thin line of black energy circling around it. It was the dark green ribbons that swirled in and out of the white, the caught Dumbledore attention.

"Professor..." A seventh year Ravenclaw mentioned ... "magical energy is only one color. Harry is three?..."

"Ah. Yes" Dumbledore's attention now snapping back to his class "a personal magical energy is indeed a single colour! However, is seems that two other people are tangled in Harry's magic"

"Two?" Screeched Malfoy

"Hmm... well, because of the inseparably element currently on your bondminship, I would suspect that the black ring is indeed your own magical energy Draco"

"So whose is the green?" Hermione asked

"That is indeed mystery".

The bell finally chimed after what seemed like several hours to Harry.

"Now class, I would like a 2ft essay on a balanced equation that electrifies unstable magic energy. It must include for elements"

Morning tea consisted muffins and hot chocolate in Draco's dorm. "Draco, I ... I... swear I don't know who the green energy".

"I know you don't Harry... but Dumbledore does".

"What makes you think that?" Harry questioned, taking a bite of a chocolate muffin. Eyeing in questionably.

"Because he's shields went up as soon as he saw the green ribbons"

"His shields?... do these muffins taste odd to you?"

"His occlumency shields... I think the muffins are vegan"

Harry stared blankly are Draco, while the blonde broke apart his second pumpkin muffin.

"You know Legilimency?" Harry finally asked, as if the cogs had finally clocked into place

"Have you met my Dad?...I mastered the art before I even got my acceptance letter!"

"Your dad tried to teach me it last year... I... I... just couldn't get it"

Draco clicked his tongue as he put the fourth muffin back down.

"You know what... I don't think my dad's teaching method suits you at all"

"I do not think Pointing a wand and screaming Legitimise without wanting, works for anyone"

"He was attempting to put your mind in a state of shock, so you would raise your shield innately"

"Yes... well... it hurt"

"Why was he teaching you in the first place?... It not like you were his favorite student"

"The connection I have with Voldemort. I think Dumbledore feared that he could use it against me"

Draco retaliated by scrunching up his nose "Yes because one of the most powerful dark wizards of all time fucking lives to manipulate a 16-year-old "

"Well...there is a prophecy that says I have to kill him" Harry shrugged, hesitantly taking the final bite of his chocolate muffin.

"Potter, let me ask you... Do YOU believe in prophecies?"

"No..."

"So...what makes you think the dark lord does?"

Before Harry could answer the bell rang again. Next class of this ever stretching! far - too - long day!

By the time dinner rolled around Harry was tired & irritated. everything and everyone was annoying him. It was among the auroma of freshly baked lasagna, that was placed along side garlic bread and mix vegetables that Harry finally snapped.

"You didn't need to compare Gretchen to a prositute Malfoy!"

"Oh, It's back to Malfoy now is it?"

"She is my team mate!"

"She flirts with you!"

"No! She doesn't !"

"Oh Harry look how well I can throw! Oh Harry! good catch! Don't I just make a nibble Chaser Harry! You should be a professional Harry!" Draco mimicked

"The beaters purposely tried to knock you off my broom because of your comment!"

"I can't help it if The Gryffindor qudditch team is so stupid! Surely they would realise that by knocking me off, you would of been knocked off too!" Draco fired back

"Just stop Malfoy! Gretchen knows I am bonded to you! The entire bloody school knows!"

"Do you really think she cares potter? Do you think Blaise cares that I am bonded to you?"

"Wait. What?"

"You are not the only one with admirers!"

"I am not calling him a slut though!" Harry snapped back.

"No. Because I do!. I tell him everyday! Heck! I was telling him years before you and I... bonded"

"But, haven't you and Blaise... you know?" Harry asked

"Oh yeah. Blaze and I have totally shagged. It's not a secret. "

"How come you shag him so easily... but not your intended?"

" I believe we have already tried! I remember pain! Lost of pain!"

"That was a stage ago!" Mumbled Harry

"Do you want to risk it?"

Harry replied by shrugging his shoulders "it might break the teather"

"Are you sick of me already?" Smirked Draco

"Yes. Straight up yes!"

"Wow! You are so charming!"

"Look Malfoy, are we going to shag or not?"

"Um... No"

"Seriously?!" Harry snapped

"Harry, do you really want your first time to be because you want to break some theater?"

This statement of concern was what caused Harry to smile, a tad too quickly. A tad too red.

Adverting his eyes, Harry begun to peck at his Lasagna once more.

"Did you ever get a reply from Lupins widow?" Draco finally asked

"Her name is Tonks- and yes I did. It was great news actually!"

"How so?"

"She is pregnant!" Harry's eyes shone once more

"... errr... great?"

"It's exciting! I've always want kids"

"Yes, well we are going have four of them"

"And I get to carry all of them!"

For some reason, this excited Harry. He's eyes flared pride, as he clapped his hands together.

"You are a strange man Potter!"

Saturday morning arose wet and raining. Harry rolled groaning... despite the fact that it was Novemeber, Draco for some reason decided that it would be fucking awesome to leave the window open. Rain was spitting on Harry's up he groaned, slammed the window shut. The sun had already begun to rise, creating a blue glow over the Great Lake.

Harry made his way into the bathroom, climbing in the hot shower. The warm water chilling his bones. He grabbed his sandlewood body wash... the one Draco brought him... ahh Draco... he was only in the other room. Dear god!

Harry's souls begun to tingle

The man had been such a prat that last week... but... I suppose pratiness is just Malfoy. Harry begun to sigh... it had been over a week since the teather, so it has been over a week, since they have been in near constant associations... even the best of couple cannot be that close together, all the bloody time!

Harry breaths begun to get heavier, as a drop of sweat ran down his forehead.

It was certain that at the very least Draco was comfortable with his mate enough to express his beliefs... argh! Harry's head was beginning to hurt!

But hasn't Draco has always been like that? Just more petty?

Pain spreads crossed Harry's eyes. Draco has always been a jerk... but he is he now less of one? Harry hands shot straight for the piercing in his forehead.

Draco didn't say anything that wasn't true, Dumbeldore - to a degree was minpulating him! And Gretchen was flirting with him!

"Arrrrghh" screamed Harry. His head begun exploding.

This naturally alerted Draco, who ran in too see his mate completely naked, dripping with water; on his knees , gripping his scar. Tears rolling down his eyes. "No"

"Harry?" Draco asked.

"No. No. He loves me!" He begun to cry, before another scream escaped his lips. Causing Harry to arch his back.

"Harry?" Draco asked again, this time kneeling in front of the shower.

"No, no! He is good. He loves me. We are merged! We are one"

As if one cue, Draco was in the shower, this silk pyjamas now getting completely soaked. Dracos arms were around Harry quicker then the third scream escaped his lips.

Tears begun to steam from Harry's eyes once more, as his arms went around Draco.

"I love you Draco" Harry whispered before he's breathed slowed and his body went limp.
