Ending of Chapter 15: The Animals in Us All
Draco! You nasty, nasty boy! Harry said.
You're just mad because I out smarted you. Draco said as he laid down on Harry and nuzzled into him. You still love me, don't you?
Of course. Harry said as he wrapped his paws around Draco. I will always love you.
"Well, well, well. What do we have here?" Came a voice from behind them.

Chapter 16: Meeting in the Woods
Harry and Draco turned to see Sirius and Remus on a small dirt path in the woods. They were smiling down at them.
"Looks to me like a big black panther hugging a silver, blonde collie." Remus said smartly. "Which is rather odd because I do believe that cat's and dog's are enemies."
By this time, Harry and Draco had changed back into their human forms.
Harry ran and hugged his Godfather. Then, to Remus' shock and Sirius' great joy, Harry hugged Remus as well. Remus returned the hug as a tear traveled down his cheek. He quickly wiped it away.
"Thank you so much." Harry said placing kisses on their cheeks. Draco almost looked livid. "I didn't get a chance to thank you last night for what you did."
"I must thank you as well." Draco said taking their hands and shacking them firmly. He wanted to brake their fingers and bloody their noses. Harry's kisses were for him and him alone. "I would be dead if it were not for the two of you. Thank you."
Harry gave a shutter as Draco's words sank in. 'I would have stopped living if Draco had died.'
"You're welcome." Remus said shacking his hand in the air to try and relieve the pain of Draco's grasp. "I would say it was my pleasure, but it really wasn't."
Everyone chuckled softly.
"What are you two doing out here anyway?" Sirius asked with a raised eyebrow.
"We were just going for a run." Harry said defensively.
"Oh, I see." Sirius said with a smirk. "And you changed into your Animagus forms and just happened to trip and fall into each others' arms?"
"Well, that was my fault." Harry said shyly. "I tricked Draco and he tricked me back."
"Oh." Sirius said softly.
"So, what are you two up to?" Draco asked.
"Well, we were just walking around trying to get things settled." Remus said.
"Like what?" Harry asked.
"We were just trying to decide when the wedding should be." Sirius said.
"Who's wedding?" Draco asked. He was really out of the loop. He wanted to get back into the swing of things.
"Ours." Remus said indicating Sirius and himself.
"You two are gay!" Draco yelled causing several birds to fly from the near by trees.
"Yes." Remus said with a smile. "Just like two other young men we know."
Draco and Harry blushed feverishly. Instantly, Draco took Harry's hand in his own, interlocking fingers. Harry smiled at him.
"Have you spoken with Dumbledore yet?" Harry asked turning back to Remus and Sirius.
"We just wrote him." Sirius said. "He should reply to us by tomorrow."
"Oh, Harry? You will be Sirius' Best Man, won't you?" Remus asked.
"Of course I will." Harry said looking from Remus to Sirius. "It would be an honor."
"Thank you, Harry." Sirius said clapping Harry on the shoulder. "That means a lot to me."
"What about you, Remus? Who's going to be your Best Man?" Draco asked.
"I'm not telling." Remus said with a smirk. "I want it to be a surprise."
"He won't even tell me!" Sirius said. "And I'm the one he's marrying!"
"And he's not going to tell you either." Remus said. "You'll just have to wait till the wedding like everyone else. Boys, why don't you come back to the house with us?
"Oh yes." Sirius agreed. "I would love for you both to see the house. Built it with my own two hands."
"And a wand and my own two hands." Remus said giving Sirius a glare.
"Well, yes and that too." Sirius said as he shrunk about an inch or two. "Come on Harry. Let's go."
Sirius grabbed Harry's other hand, wrenching him from Draco's grip and drug him off towards the house.
"You have him trained well." Draco said with a smirk.
"It's not about training, Draco." Remus said as he followed Sirius' path. "He knows that what he said was wrong and glaring at him told him that I knew he was lying too."
Draco nodded his head. He waited for his former professor to continue.
"Draco, you have to understand something about relationships." Remus said softly. "Relationships are built on trust. Without trust, the relationship won't last. You have to compromise with your lover. You two won't always agree on everything. You have to find the middle ground. If you try to force him to do something, he's just going to push away from you. Same goes for if he tries to force you into something you don't want. Find the middle ground."
"I understand, Professor." Draco said quietly.
"Remus, Draco. Call me Remus." Remus said placing an arm about Draco's shoulders. "Hell! We're almost family."
"Almost." Draco said with an uncharacteristic lopsided grin.
"Draco? Can I ask you something?" Remus asked.
"Sure, Pro…I mean, Remus." Draco said.
"Would you be my Best Man?" Remus said with a small smile.
"Me?" Draco asked in shock. He stopped dead in his tracks. "You want me to be your Best Man? But why?"
"Because." Remus said with a shrug. "I thought is would be funny to see the look on Harry's face when you walk down the aisle.
"Oh that would be priceless." Draco said with a devilish grin.
"So, you'll do it then?" Remus asked.
"Yes." Draco said with a nod. "I'll be your Best Man."
"Great!" Remus said as he pulled Draco back into a walk. "But remember, not a word."
"Oh, don't you worry." Draco said. "I wouldn't ruin this for all the money in the world."
The two chuckled softly as they made their way to Sirius' and Remus' house.
