A/N: Yes, yes a VERY short chapter. Thanks for buggin' me, Klee, dearie. I'll be getting more of this done later... when I'm not having to go and get showers and do stuff. Hahaha. Ahem. Yeah.
Chapter Four: Narry a Sound (yes, doubletitling...)
Draco:
I regarded Harry for a minute. His face was worried and tight and beautifully anxious. Giving him my very best impression of a smile, I leaned over and kissed him softly on the cheek, murmuring, "Okay." It was only partially a lie. I would tell him, one day, what happened to me, but now- now was not a good time. I wanted to snuggle and be a cute couple, not talk about how messed up I was.
Harry drew me into his arms and I sighed a bit, stroking his fingers with mine and regarding the fire from my comfortable Harrypillow. "Draco," he said after a moment "can I tell you something?"
"You can do anything once," I said, quoting my dear Professor Snape.
He gave a sort of chuckle and leaned back, wrapping one leg around me so that I was almost totally surrounded by him. If he had been a cloak, I couldn't have been any happier. "My love- narry a sound comes from your lips that I don't hold to my heart..." he said softly, an embarrassed tone to his voice.
I almost cried. I had totally NOT expected this. Harry doesn't get this romance novel-ish. And ... I had no idea that he loved me so much.
"Draco?"
"Yeah?"
".... sorry."
"For what?"
Harry shrugged and I tilted my head back so that I could see his face. Without another word, he bent down and kissed me softly, nibbling on my lips. His hands were at my waist, speaking silently of his love.
And narry a sound passed between us as our lips met and parted only to meet again and part.... a cycle stopped only when I curled up under his chin and fell asleep.
