1 April 1996: Harry's fifth year at Hogwards
All was well in Harry's world, it was a lovely spring day, the sun was shining, they had no homework for a change and he was with all his best friends. It was a Hogsmeade weekend this weekend but he and his friends decided to have a pick-nick under the great tree by the lake while everyone was gone. And Harry's couldn't ask for more: the sun, good food, his friends Ron and Hermoine who became a couple over the summer, seems Ron got the point after the forth year Yule ball after all. And of course the most important person in Harry's life was there too: his boyfriend. Oh yes, Harry has a boyfriend now, didn't know?
And it's not just any boyfriend, it's the person most people would pick last to be his boyfriend: Draco Malfoy! It's hard to imagine isn't it? Seeing as they were mortal enemy's in the first four years at Hogwards, most people were shocked to see that in the beginning of their fifth year Harry and Draco became friends and not just friends but boyfriends, it came as a shock but most people accepted them very quickly saying that if Harry picked Draco to be his boyfriend, he couldn't be that bad could he, Harry would after all never date any death eaters or Voldemort followers and after they heard bits and pieces about what happened to Harry over the summer and Draco's role in it, most people accepted them as a couple and started to act friendly towards Draco, which came as a shock to both Harry and Draco but they were Happy none the less.
After all they feared Ron and Hermoine's reaction more then the whole school, Hermoine of course accepted them immediately saying she knew all along, that girl is too smart for her own good, and Ron was surprisingly calm, mostly 'cause Hermoine calmed him down and seeing how happy Harry was when he's with Draco, the happiest he's seen him in the four years he's known Harry he just accepted the situation but not before threatening Draco with bodily harm if he would ever hurt Harry in any way.
Draco surprised Ron when he said, he would let him if anything like that ever happened, Ron was satisfied and left it at the one threat! Harry had to smile at the memory, he just couldn't believe he was so lucky to have Draco as a boyfriend and still couldn't believe what happened to get them to this point.
~ Hogwards express - King's Cross - End of fourth year ~
Draco woke up after on the express after being put to god knows how many hexes, he felt kinda strange, and when he lifted a hand to his face he understood why, his face was covered in little tentacles.
He did a quick counter spell and they were gone but the feeling he was having wasn't gone at all, it was like he was feeling someone else's feelings too, but he shrugged it off thinking it will pass after awhile and met up with his driver, he stepped in the car leaning his forehead against the window while his driver put his school things away. Draco was still feeling very funny and it seemed to get worse every minute, he just kept thinking that it will over soon after he's gotten some rest, IF they ever got home that is, there seemed to be a traffic jam that could take awhile.
After some time, he lost track of the time, they started moving again. It seems a car broke down and Draco could make out 2 people standing near the car that's being towed now, when they got closer he could see that the first person was a very large man with no neck and a bushy moustache, the man didn't seem to happy that his car was being towed away, he dragged the boy who was standing next to him to a more private spot and saw them talk ... well ... it seemed more like yelling to him, the man was waving his hands all over the place and started to turn purple and looked very menacing to him, he couldn't see the boy's face but he could imagine the look on the boys face. The car stopped again and Draco could hear what's being said: "Well, boy, what have you done know? What did ya do to my new car?" yelled the big man and Draco shrunk at the tone the man used and felt a pang of sympathy run trough him but something else as well, it felt like fear but it wasn't coming from him but from someone else, but his attention was diverted at the next chain of events, "I didn't do anything to your car uncle Vernon, I didn't even see it before now" he heard the boy answer in a very quiet voice, he had to strain to hear it, "Don't you get fresh with me boy, I know you did something to me my car, you and your ... your ... ways" Draco couldn't understand why the man would blame the boy and what he meant by 'your ways', "But..." but the boy never had the change to complete his sentence 'cause he was slapped hard against his face and fell to the ground, "Don't talk back to me, you freak!" Draco was shocked not only by what he saw but what he felt, he had a stinging sensation in his face like someone slapped him some time ago 'cause it didn't feel as bad as just being slapped. He kept staring out of the window at the boy to see if he's alright 'cause he heard the man yell again "Get up boy ... Get up ... don't make me repeat myself", he looked at the boy and willed him to get up and when he did he was shocked at what he saw, it seemed it wasn't just any boy, it was Potter, Harry Potter, famous boy- who-lived, getting up from the ground and looking like a beaten dog. Draco knew he should laugh at him after being put trough all those hexes by Potter and his fan-club, but he simply couldn't anymore, he felt like Harry looked. Hurt, ashamed and frightened! When the car started moving again he saw Harry being pulled by the arm out off view.
And Draco was left wondering what just happened. Harry being yelled at and slapped around, surely the boy who lived was being waited on hand and foot, being treated like the Hero that he was, and why was he feeling the way he was, he felt just as Harry looked, could it be that he could feel a little of what Harry was going trough?
He had to find out! After two weeks of intence searching in the Malfoy library looking up hexes and curses, mind links, emotion links and so on and so forth, Draco found nothing. He found it innerving since now and then he would feel very light pains on his body and hoped that he still wasn't feeling what Harry was going trough 'cause if he was Harry was going to one hell of a summer and he meant that litterly! He was gonna find out if he was okay and made a mental note to fly to Harry's house tomorrow to make sure he was okay and see if he was in fact waited on hand and foot, like he thought he would be.
