Disclaimer: I know it … you know it too right?
A/N: *sighs* Um … I keep getting questions like when are there more D/Hr moments .. here's the answer; the Draco/Hermione parts will come uh later. The beginning is more like Draco/Lily/James love triangle thing. But Draco doesn't really 'like' like her since he's only doing this to prevent Harry from being born. Does he succeed … well you got to read and find out? By the way thanks to my reviewers especially Mjade and Icy Stormz plus all the other people~!
Title: Time And AgainBy: GaiNax *coughs* annchan
Last Time: Draco-Harry quickly headed for the Slytherin common room. He reached his room and tried reading 'The History of Hogwarts' to keep his mind of Lily. He's actually beginning to like her… not just for 'getting revenge on the Potters' purposes. Unfortunately he had fallen asleep.
It was a beautiful day. It was also a very beautiful garden. Filled with white flowers, white chairs, white bows hung on fences … looks like a wedding. Two people stood in front of the altar. 'Who are they?' Draco-Harry stood there watching them. The 'man' turned around … 'It's me… and … don't tell me … Pansy? Disgusting pug-faced Pansy?' the woman turned around … it was…
Chapter 6: Truth to be told
Hermione. 'Granger? Oh no … I married a mudblood? This is SO NOT happening! Get out of my dream!' He franticly tried to wake himself up. The stupidest thing he did was jump in the pond located in the garden.
He woke up in cold sweat. "What the hell is going on? Why did I marry her?"
A crooked nosed boy also known as 'the nosy bookworm' looked at Draco-Harry with surprise. "Marry who?"
"A Mudblood-" He calmed down a bit. "-Why am I even talking to you? You wouldn't know anything."
"Try me." He sat on Draco-Harry's bed. Not that he's gay or anything … he was just sitting down … to talk.
"I promised someone … that I wouldn't say anything at all … to you people, but – never mind … I think bad indigestion caused that painful dream…I mean painful … not in a physical way but in a way that could destroy you mentally-I mean a mudblood! I married a friggin mudblood! It couldn't get any worse." He chuckled faintly. "I think I'll go back to bed … and next time … mind your own business. Or get a life of your own. You can't always live the Marauder's adventures."
"Who says I am?" He moved back to his own bed. "I'm just saying that … lighten up. I mean just because they almost killed you … don't mean you have to get up in their faces about it all the time. Not that I like them or anything …"
"So what were you going to tell me … about the dream?"
Draco-Harry didn't want to talk about it … but if he told him, he'd at least have someone to plan 'stuff' with. "It's not really about the dream. The thing is … I-I-I'm from the future. "
"WHAT? Future? We actually have a future … I mean with Voldemort running around killing people … I'm surprised people lived." He sat upright, looking at Draco-Harry intently.
"Well you'd be really surprised to find out who saved us all." He grinned. 'This is so going to piss him off so much when he finds out …' "It's Harry Potter … as in James' and Lily's son."
He nodded. It took a while for it to sink in. A boy his age from the future saying his enemy's son saved them all is a tiny bit hard to take in. "Harry … so let me get this straight. You … are … James' son?"
"ARE YOU MAD? Hell no! I just changed my name so that people wouldn't recognize me." He pondered a bit on how to phrase things. "My name is actually Draco – get this, Malfoy. Draco Malfoy is my name."
"Lucius' son? And who … pray tell … is your mother?" He looked at him quizzically and then nodded, signaling him to continue. "My mother is none other than Narcissa. Sorry to burst your bubble."
"Really?… I'm surprised … your mother liked your dad … once-" He shrugged. "-until he started hitting her , abusing her … in more ways than one– it's how they broke up." He knew it was true. He always heard his mother and father fighting. And he ended up hitting her … but still – he's dad, isn't he? He hit him a lot too but again … he's dad. "I know that … but he's my dad. I can't choose whom my mother marries. And I would never help set you up with my mom … I wouldn't want to be Draco Snape, now would I?" They both laughed. "Guess not …"
"So tell me … what are you going to do? Now that you've got complete control over destiny itself?"
"First things first … get Lily away from James." He gasped. "How could you do that? Have you ever thought of what might happen if Harry wasn't born?"
"Yeah no more Mr. Popularity …" Sev walked over to Draco and placed his hand on his shoulder. Again … he's not gay. (A/n: unless you want him to be … tell me) "No … I meant that without Harry, you probably wouldn't be born. I know your dad is a death eater. But Voldemort would kill anyone. What if he killed your mother? You wouldn't be born, neither would any of your friends."
"I have no friends …" He removed Severus' hand from his shoulder. "It doesn't matter anyway … my dad would've wanted me to do this. I mean … you know who …he didn't exactly like the Gryffindors so maybe he's out to get them. I might just be helping them."
"But why? You have a lot of potential, I guess. I mean why become a Death Eater? You don't need to follow your father's footsteps. Follow your own."
He smiled … "You definitely deserve to be a teacher … boring … yet I bet a lot of students learn from you."
"I'm a teacher?" Draco grabbed his robes and draped it over his shoulders. "Wouldn't you like to know?" He opened the door and left.
Draco hurried to the Great Hall. It was 8:00 am. A bunch of students were already there. Most were from Slytherins. 'We're known for not wanting to waste time …' he thought and sat down next to some kid. "Hi Harry!" A read headed girl approached him. "Lily … let me be frank …"
"Can I be Bob then?"
He chuckled a bit. "Not funny. I mean … let me be straight with you… as I said before, I like you, and I have to leave soon. So before I leave … would you like to go out with me?"
Lily gazed into his eyes. Dreaming about their err… future date? "I would love to go out with you!"
"Really?" He grabbed her hand and held it for a mere 5 minutes. "Well … due to the – you-know-who's reign … I guess we'd have to stick to Hogwarts grounds. Meet me down by the lake tonight." Oblivious to the fact that James over heard their entire conversation, Draco-Harry finally let go of her hand. "See you later."

While in the future…
"Harry? Is that you? What's wrong with your hair?" Hermione looked at the difference in her friend's hair. "It's … blond?" Harry raised his eyebrows. He rushed into the boys wash room nearby. How convenient.
A loud scream could be heard coming from the wash room.
He took his hand and started pulling out his hair but it was too painful for him to stand it so he stopped. There was also another change in him … his eyes … they're blue-ish. "What is going on?" He ran out the wash room, hysterical, he ran to Dumbledore's office. Past the portraits, up the stairs and through the gargoyle. "Headmaster! You've got to help me …" He stopped dead in his tracks. He realized he was taller than before. "Look at me … my hair – eyes – height! I look like … Malfoy!" Dumbledore just nodded. "I understand he went against my orders."
Harry looked at Dumbledore as if he was speaking in a different language. "No offense but it's not the time to talk in metaphors. And besides I didn't go against any orders." He shut his mouth when he realized who he was talking to. "I'm not referring to you, Mr. Potter. However … one of your – peers has gone against my orders."
Harry shook his head. "Ron and Hermione would never go against your orders, sir."
"I'm not talking about them. Anyways … just accept this for now … everything will be back to normal – I hope." Harry looked at him dumbfounded. "Please tell me what's going on? Is this another one of Vol- uh…you-know-who's plans?" Now it's the old man's turn to shake his head. "I'm afraid not. But this is way out of your hands. The whole 'now' isn't going to change totally until he comes back."
"Forgive me but … WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?" He pounded his fist on the headmaster's table really hard. (A/N: Kinda like Maney and his wall eh? P/J) So hard that his pencil holder fell on the floor. "Do you really want to know the truth Mr. Potter?"
"Of course I do! I'm old enough to handle these things." Harry looked down on the floor waiting for Dumbledore to answer. A few minutes passed yet it was still silent … until "You're right. I've thought about it … and you do deserve to know. First of all, if my memory serves me well, I remember Mr. Malfoy coming to the past. He pretended to be you and well all I know is that your mom and your dad will have no chance to get together."
"I don't get it. If you said that Draco right? If you said that he went back in time … and my mom and my dad aren't … together … then how come I am here and I have memories of the night Vol- uh… you-know-who killed my parents." Dumbledore stood up and looked out the window. Avoiding Harry. "I said … that the whole 'now' – or the present will not fully change until he comes back. People's memories haven't yet been altered, aside from mine. And physical change in anyone will not fully show until – tomorrow, I presume?"
"How do you know he's coming back tomorrow?"
"Well Mr. Potter all time traveling spells only lasts for three whole days or 72 hours to be precise. So just subtract the number of hours Mr. Malfoy's been missing from 72 and that's how much time til he'll get back." Draco haven't seen Malfoy since dinner so he assume he'd be gone after dinner. 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 1. "72 minus 42 uh…" He started counting in his head. He wasn't much of a math wiz. "30 hours left. A day and 6 hours. I've got to do something before it's too late."
Dumbledore stopped Harry. "You can't …
A/N: Tell me what you think … sorry if I made Harry sound stupid in the last paragraph. I mean 72 – 42 is 30 … duh. Anyways suggest what you want to happen … I am very flexible about changing the plot a bit if you want. Please review k?
