disclaimers: not mine
I decided to change the pairings from Severus/Harry, Sirius/Oliver. ^-^ Since Oliver has graduated and Fred and George have too. I think I can make Sirius/Oliver work. We'll say that Oliver came back to teach or something. ^_^ Do forgive me, I spelled some of the spells wrong.
Chapter 4: Waking and Arguements
Draco wiggled in his sleep, body waking from the stress induced night. For once, he felt refreshed and tranquil. Eyes shuddered open lazily, blinking a couple times to relieve the haze of slumber. It was then he realised why he was suddenly so warm and serene. Remus' arms were tightly wound around his waist; strength that didn't become the rather frail-looking man. Draco futiley tried to shimmy from the hold but to no avail. What more, it only caused Remus to grip him closer. Draco hufffed, settling into a comfortable position again, head underneath Remus' chin.
The door opened, snapping Remus awake and Draco into a near heart attack. Severus, eyes narrowed and face even more pale in anger, stood with his arms crossed and a very dark glowwer fixated to his visage. Remus promplty released Draco who scurried from the older man as if he were the plague. "I think you'd better tell me what happened, now Lupin. Draco, go to breakfast!" he snapped, the blond fleeing at his professor's irate mood. "When did you start to fancy boys, Lupin? Or do I need to remind you that Draco is sixteen! Nearly twice as young as you!"
Remus glared, matching the other man's expression. "I did nothing with Draco that any person with some amount of feelings wouldn't have done. He was screaming and I heard him. I came down here to see him having a nightmare and he requested that I spend the night with him. Dont you dare presume what you know nothing about! Maybe if you weren't so busy fucking around with Harry, you would have known that your prized student was suffering!" Remus snarled, turning on his heel and leaving.
Severus's eyes darkened in intense anger as he grabbed Remus by his shoulder, forcing the brunette to cease his escape. "What the hell do you mean?! My fucking around with Harry?! You had better explain yourself and quick."
"You think I'm blind, dont you? You and Harry are lovers." Severus sputtered in rage. "I can smell it, you know. One of the curses I have to live with as a werewolf; I pick up on those sort of things. Severus, before you accuse me of wrongdoing, I suggest you take a look at yourself." Remus frowned and walked away from the penetrating stare. Harry and Severus. Remus hadn't believed it when he first caught the signs of the tryst. It was a week ago, after a detention. The sex pheromenes were so strong, emitting from them both. The stares during meal times, the coy smiles. It was present.
Then, the entire ordeal with Sirius and Oliver Wood. Remus sighed. The former Quidditch star had joined the Order of the Phoenix and was currently on a mission in Germany. Remus knew that Sirius was heavily attracted to Oliver; who wouldn't have been? He listlessly entered the Great Hall, not surprised that Severus nor Harry were there. Draco was once again by himself, picking at his food with a solemnity that shouldn't have becomed one so young. Why did he find Draco so fascinating? Why did he feel the need to sit next to him and try and offer comfort?
Just as soon as Remus sat at the teacher's table, Draco shoved his food aside and rose to his feet. Sirius slung his arm around Remus' shoulders. "Whats the matter Moony?" Draco's eyes flashed for a moment as he glanced at Remus before he left; robes billowing in the same fashion as Severus's. Remus shrugged Sirius off who promptly pouted. "Moooooonnnny!" he droned.
"I'm sorry Padfoot but I should check on Draco."
"Just let him be. He might now want to be around anyone."
"Thats what I'm afraid of," Remus whispered, stabbing a link of sausage. He missed the knowing look from Albus.

Draco kicked bad humordedly at a rock, sending it sprawling into the lake. Maybe with luck, the squid would eat him. He plopped onto the ground, glaring at the water. Wishful thinking would get him nowhere and he had made a promise not to kill himself. He touched his wrists. Why did that one simple promise mean so much to him; why was it the one thing that kept him from sinking into an abyss of self-loathing and manic-deppressiveness? Remus probably didn't even realise how his words affected Draco, that he had saved the young wizard from death.
"I thought you would be here," Draco raised his eyes to meet Harry's. The scarred teen took Draco's silence as answer that he could join him. Harry picked at several blades of grass, twisting and weaving them. "You spend too much time alone." Draco snorted. "You dont play Quidditch anymore."
"Unlike you Potter, my life doesnt revolved around the damn game. Your worse than Wood. There are more important matters than Quidditch."
"I've seen the way you look at him," Harry blurted. Draco tensed and if glares were Crucio spells, Harry would have been dead a hundred times over. "If you care for him, I dont mind. I just want the truth. Do you love Remus?"
"Of course not you fool!" Draco spat. "So now I'm not only a fucking Death Eater, I'm gay?!" Draco stood, eyes furiously glinting. "Your such a fucking little bastard, Potter! You sit on your high horse, stare down at those not on your level. Ever since I met you," His hand clenched around his wand, "You saw me as someone only good for licking your ass. I'm a Malfoy! The most oldest, richest, and most powerful wizarding family in the world! I bow to noone, let alone a fuck like you or that goddamn werewolf!" His wand rose to point directly at Harry's scar. "I should've killed you when I had the chance. I should've killed you when you saw Voldemort return to his body." Harry gaped. "Yes, I was there. I was standing beside my father. I was so proud, to be aknowledged as someone other than 'Lucius's son.' " The wand came closer, nearly touching Harry's marred flesh. "And now's my chance. Noone would hear you scream. Avad-"
"Expilliarmus!" Draco's wand flew from his hand to land on the grass at Severus's feet; a bewildered Sirius, and a shocked Remus stood a few meters from the duo. Draco laughed. Harry took the chance to join the trio, shaking with panic. Draco didnt bother with it, merely chortled harder until he was forced to hold his aching stomach.
"You think that taking my wand would stop me from killing that bastard?!" Draco suddenly sombered, a glint in his eyes that had the four wizards queasy. "No. Daddy and Voldie dearest taught me more things than you could possibly imagine."
"DRACO!" Severus hissed as Draco fell to the ground on his knees. Tears pricked the corner of his silver eyes. Draco held his arm, spasming. "Draco, damnit, what is it? Is it the Dark Mark?" The blonde nodded feebly. "FUCK! We have to get him to Albus. Voldemort is summoning him, and only him." He went to pick Draco up but he was shoved aside.
"Leave me the alone. I can do it myself." And then, he dissappeared.
"Where'd he go Severus?" Remus asked, peering at the grounds.
"....To Voldemort. That must've been of the things he was taught; to apparate. Potter, what did you do to make Draco pull his wand on you?"
Harry blushed, fingers twiddling nervously. Sirius and Remus were waiting as well. Could he tell them the truth? Draco would kill him. He sighed. "I asked him if he loved Remus." Three jaws dropped. "He then went berserk and started ranting about....stuff." Harry wasn't going to tell them what stuff. He wasn't positive that Severus even knew that Draco was present for Voldemort's return.
Severus glared at Remus, their conversation..yelling match, from the morning returning. Sirius was lost, his facial expression showed as much. "Potter, we need to talk about this. You endangered his life. Come on Potter." Severus turned to the direction of the dungeons.
"He's not going anywhere with you Snape!" Sirius growled.
"Sirius..just let him. Okay?" Sirius bit his lip, nodding in defeat. Remus cast a look at Severus, understanding clearly passing betwixt them. Harry also gave him a grateful smile before tromping down the corridor beside his boyfriend. "I have to talk to Albus about Draco apparating to Voldemort."
"Alright. I'll change into Snuffles and survey the grounds in case Draco returns hurt." Remus patted his oldest and best friend on the shoulder. "As much as the little git pisses me off, I feel sorry for him. He doesn't have a family. Like Harry." With a sad grin, Sirius morphed and trotted outside. Remus mustered his courage, heading towards the headmasters office.
