Booboo was waddling through the corridors of Hogwarts, completely and utterly lost.
"Hey-yo?" it whispered, peeking around a corner before quickly turning it and running down the hall. There was a whisper of fabric, and Booboo found itself running straight into the open hands of Harry Potter, which were lowered to the ground to scoop it up.
"Booboo?" Harry whispered, one hand holding the bear while the other rubbed the fuzzy head. The fur was just…so…tempting.
"Hay-wee Pottie!" Booboo exclaimed in a loud whisper, looking up at its captor.
"Booboo, where are you going? What are you doing outside of Draco's room?"
"Booboo need to see Day-co!"
Harry was silent for a moment before nodding as he squished Booboo's middle. "Then I'll take you there."
It didn't take long for them to reach the hospital wing, especially with Harry's familiarity with Hogwarts, and when they reached the door, Booboo poked him with a soft paw. "Pottie let Booboo go in first."
Harry nodded. "Alright." He opened the door a crack and bent over to set Booboo back onto the ground, barely straightening up before he heard a scream and horrified "Moomoo!" come from inside.
Heart leaping to his throat, Harry flung the door open and ran in, almost skidding immediately to a stop.
Draco.
Draco, holding a large silver pair of scissors.
Draco, holding a large silver pair of scissors, locks of long, blonde hair splayed around him on the floor. He was staring down at his hair, opening and shutting the scissors as if in a trance, a rough, jagged fringe shading his expression from view.
Booboo was at the edge of the circle of hair, stomach on the floor, one paw stretching out gingerly to touch the silver strands in front of its chocolate nose.
"Draco," Harry whispered, as he slid into the room and closed the door silently behind him. Draco didn't appear to have heard him. "Draco," Harry said again, louder, and went up to Draco to touch him lightly on the shoulder.
Draco's head turned too peer at Harry over his shoulder, eyes wide, scissors held in front of him, open. "Potter," he said, mouth twisting into a bitter grin. "How nice of you to join me."
"What have you done?" he spoke in hushed tones, as if the sound of his voice would disturb the unnatural stillness in the room.
"What does it look like I've done?" The same manic smile, and the rest of Draco's body turned so that he faced Harry completely.
"Your hair…"
"My hair."
"Why?"
Draco tilted his head to the side, twisting his features to form a mockingly contemplative look. "Why indeed." His voice lightened and became wistful. "The Ancient Chinese had long hair, too. They didn't cut if off because it represented their life and those of their loved ones and family. The Empress, in particular, couldn't even trim her hair, for it represented the lives of all the subjects in the country. Old pureblood families still hold a similar custom, do you know, Potter?"
Harry shook his head. He was wondering at the relevance of Draco's little speech.
"My father had long hair. All the Malfoys in their portraits had long hair. Purebloods that matter still hold true to the custom." His wistful smile changed again into something that sent shivers up Harry's spine. "Hair is an important thing, you know, Potter. When one changes their hairstyle dramatically, then it signifies a dramatic change in their life as well – physically, emotionally, spiritually – doesn't matter."
"So you cut of your hair because. You." Harry gesticulated wildly with his arms. "Your. I. We. Because you." Sometimes he hated Draco's roundabout method of saying something – Harry could never voice out what Draco meant though he understood it.
"Yes." Draco's eyes hardened. "I need to rid my life of you and start over. And I'm starting with me."
Harry didn't realise there were tears in his eyes until he felt a lone drop slide down his cheek. "Why are you doing this?"
"I told you already."
"No." Harry shook his head, hair flying in all directions. "Why are you cutting me out of your life like this?"
Draco's look became tender and his posture relaxed; the hand holding the scissors was dropped so it hung from his side. "Because I feel too much for you. And you hurt me. So I have to do this."
"That doesn't explain anything!"
"Of course it does. It explains everything." Draco's gaze fell to his hair lying on the floor and to Booboo, who was sprawled on top of a small pile, bawling loudly. The scissors fell to the floor, metal striking loudly against stone, and Draco dropped to his knees, holding his arms out to his bear. "Booboo," he whispered. "Come to your Moomoo."
And Booboo, clutching a bunch of severed hair, fell into Draco's hands.
Harry knelt too, across from Draco, and he reached out to touch the face before him, but didn't. "Draco. Don't do this. I'm begging you, please, don't."
Draco was silent, dropping kisses to the top of his teddy bear's head.
"Draco, please, please, I don't want to see you doing this to yourself."
"Then stop seeing me. You never had a problem with it before this year."
"That was before I realised I loved you so much." Harry's voice cracked, teardrops making small trails as they rolled down his face. "And even before I realised it, Draco, you were always there, I always saw you. I saw you."
"Do you realise that your words don't mean anything anymore?" Draco stood up and walked to the window, gazing up at the moon outside as he stroked Booboo gently.
He was broken. Broken and oh, so beautiful that Harry could feel the pain inside of him.
"Words show nothing," Harry said. "But actions do."
"And what of actions that are not borne of the heart but from force of will instead?"
"And how will you differentiate between the two?" Harry retorted.
"You just know these things, Potter."
Harry stomped over, and whirled Draco around before pulling him close into a crushing embrace, burying his face into the remains of Draco's shredded locks. "Then just know this," he said, the fury clear in his voice.
Draco pushed at him weakly with one hand, the other still cradling the squashed Booboo trapped in between, but it was to no avail. "Potter." His voice was faint. "Don't." He didn't sound very convincing.
Harry's only response was to hold him even tighter, ignoring the wriggling teddy bear somewhere in the middle of his chest. "No."
"I – I don't…"
"No."
Silence, and even Booboo stopped moving around between them. And then Harry spoke. "I'm not going to give up, Draco. Never. And what happened with Justin wasn't entirely my fault – I was starved for attention that you wouldn't give me."
Draco tried harder to push him away, but Harry's grip on him was too tight. "Then it's my entire fault!" he growled angrily, fighting to break free. "And let me go and be at peace!"
"Never! Have you been listening to what I'm saying?!"
"Of course I have!" huffed Draco.
"You haven't! You heard me, but you haven't been listening to what I've been saying! I'm saying I love you and don't ever plan to let you go, not now not ever and certainly not over anyone else! I can't believe you're letting something like that come between us so!"
Draco stilled, and Harry loosened his grasp enough to look into Draco's eyes, but holding onto his own wrists tightly to keep Draco locked in. "Draco…Draco, have you any idea how much I feel for you? How much I ache inside – literally – because of you? It's all because of you. Haven't you noticed me watching you in class? Haven't you noticed the letters I asked Hedwig to send you? Haven't you noticed that even though you're being a stubborn prat I still love you more than ever?"
"Love…is a fickle thing."
"Even if it is – why can't you just live for now? I've spent the last seven years of my life being hunted by Voldemort –" Here, Draco winced. "- and I learnt that the most important thing is to live for now. Because I might not get a tomorrow. And now – now the danger is over, and I could finally be with you without any hindrance, and you're not letting us. Why?"
"To protect myself," Draco practically hissed. "True, you live for the moment. I did – do – too. Because since I could remember, I was always waiting for tomorrow to stop coming. And even though the danger is over, and I can't just stop myself from wanting to stay safe. And I also learnt that danger not only comes from the enemy – it comes from everyone and everything. Including love. Do you understand what I'm telling you, Potter? My feelings for you run too deep; they're dangerous to me – they could take away my tomorrow."
And Harry fell silent. "Is this why you never told me that you loved me?" he whispered.
Draco refused to look at him.
"Is this why?" He spoke louder now, and grit his teeth. "I remember that night, Draco, after dinner, when I sent you the note. You told me you didn't love me. But you never told me you did, so how could you not?"
"What are you trying to say?"
"You know what?" Harry gave a sudden laugh. "I don't know either. I just know that I'm saying I love you and I'll do anything to be with you. I don't care if you don't love me, Draco. I don't care if you do. I just want to be near you. I want to be able to hold you, touch you, kiss you, and love you. Can't you grant me even that?"
Draco lifted his head quickly in disbelief. "You're willing to…to…just like that? Because you love me?" He was silent for a moment, and then pushed madly against Harry's chest with shaking hands, trying to get loose again. "And how many have you loved," he shouted, "and offered yourself to in the same way?!"
At this, Harry saw red and raised his hand, about to strike Draco before he even knew what he was doing.
Draco stood, chin up, glaring at him through his tears, waiting for the blow to come any second.
Harry tensed and lowered his arm in his sudden clarity, hand going to his forehead instead as he let go of Draco and stumbled off to lean on the wall. "Oh my God…Draco…Draco…"
Draco just stood, watching him as tears rolled down his cheeks. "I don't want this pain anymore, Harry. I want the pain to stop. I want everything to be as it was in the beginning – because then you were mine and there hadn't been any shadows hanging over us. I just want…" He stopped, and was silent. And then, "Bon nuit, Booboo. Je t'aime," and a rustling of fabric that meant Booboo was tucked into Draco's robe. Harry wondered if Draco was going to speak again when he heard a small sound – the sound of metal clicking against stone, and his heart stopped.
Draco.
Scissors.
Fuck was all his mind could think of as he saw Draco pick up the large scissors from the floor, holding out his other wrist in front of him.
"No! Draco!" He lunged forward, and grabbed the scissors, but the short struggle that ensued only stopped when Draco cried out and –
The entire world stopped when Harry realised that the blade had slashed Draco's upper arm before its tip sunk into the soft flesh. "Draco!" he gasped, eyes wide and tearful. "Oh God, it's all my fault!"
"Harry," Draco said, falling into Harry as the other hand still had hold of the scissors. "It hurts."
"Draco, oh, Draco! You'll be alright, you will you will, it's not in that deep, see? It's only a scratch, only a scratch." Harry was babbling as the two of them slowly fell to the floor, his arms still supporting Draco's weight.
"Gotta…pull it out." Draco gave a hard yank and the scissors, red with his blood, clattered to the floor. Harry dimly registered that they were surrounded by bits of cut off hair, the ones around the scissors now red and clumped together.
"Hold on, love, I'll get Madam Pomfrey for you, she'll help you."
"Harry. Hurts," Draco whimpered, and leaned into Harry, head resting on his shoulder. "Hurts."
"I know baby, I have to get Madam Pomfrey, I can't heal this for you, love – I have to go get her."
"Harry." Draco burst into tears. "Harry, Harry, Harry…"
Harry hugged Draco tightly as he folded up Draco's wide robe sleeve to press against the wound. "Darling, I have to go get Madam Pomfrey. Can you sit here and wait for me? I'll just be a second – I just need to get over to the bed and press the call button, alright?"
"Harry…Harry, Harry, Harry," was all Draco could say, but he bent forward and Harry scrambled up and shot to the side of the bed closest to them.
"Fuck, fuck, fuck, where's the goddamn call button? They're supposed to be right here…" Harry found the small white button on the side of the bed and pressed it several times before Draco's whimper made him return to his side. "Draco? Draco, love, it'll be okay. Madam Pomfrey will be here any minute now."
"Harry…" The tears had subsided, but now Draco's face was ghastly pale and his eyes were half-closed. He slumped into Harry limply, and Harry panicked. Draco hadn't lost enough blood for him to be…but why was he…oh God..
"Draco…Draco, you can't do this to me! Oh God, please don't…no…"
Just then, Madam Pomfrey rushed in, wearing a robe and nightgown. "What? What happened?" she shouted, eyes wide at the scene before her: Draco with his jagged hair, the severed hair in strewn across the floor, and a red patch on the sleeve of his hospital robe; Harry, holding Draco, trying to keep pressure on the wound as he shook Draco, trying to wake him; and the scissors, on the floor, blades open and dripping slow, viscous drops of blood.
"Madam Pomfrey! He – he wanted to – I tried to stop him, and – oh God, it's all my fault!"
"Calm down, Mr. Potter!" She knelt by Draco and checked his pulse. "Get him into a bed, now," she snapped, and then pulled the curtains closed, pushing Harry out. "Out!" she said. "Wait outside."
---
"Madam Pomfrey, what's wrong with him? I mean…he shouldn't have…unless the scissors were…"
She shook her head. "It wasn't from loss of blood, Mr. Potter. Draco's already in an extremely weakened state, and tonight's excitement just proved a little too much for him." She eyed the mess on the floor. "Do you know the story behind this?" She gestured to the remains of Draco's long hair, scattered out before them.
Harry nodded. "Yes, ma'am. But I got here afterwards, so there was no way I could have stopped him."
Madam Pomfrey sighed. "You do realise that I'll have to punish you for being out of bed after hours?"
"Yes, ma'am."
"Ten points from Gryffindor," she said. "And I'll have to tell Professor McGonagall."
Harry paled.
"Don't worry about it. The most you'll get from her is a lecture and a detention. Now, run along now. Mr. Malfoy will be fine here with me."
"Can I…can I see him before I go?"
Madam Pomfrey sighed. "Fine. Two minutes." She held open the curtain, and Harry slipped inside.
Draco was still on the bed, like he had been earlier today after the Potions class incident, and Harry felt the familiar ache again. "Oh, Draco," he said, brushing the uneven fringe away from Draco's face. He leaned down to press a kiss to the pale lips. "I love you."
And then he left.
To Be Continued…and the end is in sight! :D
Notes: I am a horrible, horrible updater. *hangs head*…*starts bawling*…I didn't mean it! I wanted to write this fast, fast, fast, but I just couldn't get it right!!!!!!! And I'm still not sure if this is right because it's so…SHORT!!! *bawls some more*
Next chapter: The end is near. If not the next chapter, then the chapter after that. Or the chapter after that. But very, very soon. :D
Thank you SO much to everyone who reviewed Part 1, and also to: Akemi, mistykasumi – eeeeeeee…sooo sorry for making you cry, but it's a good thing because that means the angst is working! Er. Um. Yes. Happy ending is near! I can see it…almost! And definitely fluff next chapter, so we could break out the toothbrushes to prepare for the sap. Thank you for reading and reviewing!, Aurora, Callisto Firestarter – LOL! I'm loving your reviews! So funny! Hope you're feeling better by now…! And ya! You shouldn't be out of bed when you're sick! *hides away because it's middle of the night and is sick and is still writing this*…ahem. So. Yes. Heehee…Oh! You get to go to France!! Oh, oh, oh, you're SO lucky! I've only been several years ago, but it had the most beautiful towns I'd seen and Paris was just wonderful! You'll love it there…but I'll wish you fun anyway! :D Thank you for your review!, Tsuyuno – The locks aren't over yet. Er. Um. Yeah…you know what I mean, though? Er. Not very coherent right now. Sorry wasn't very romantic about the drinking thing. Cause Malfoys take arsenic, drinking poison would just flat out kill them, wizard or no…Ooh! Website! *goes off to look*…Thank you for your review, and hope you liked this chapter too (it has Boo!)!!!!!!, Playboy Bunny, chrisseee667 – Uh oh…Sorry! I really am! I just can't ever seem to get them out fast enough! Sorry sorry sorry! But hope you liked this chapter anyway, even though it's a bit short. And thank you for your review! :) You've been here since the beginning, and I really want to thank you for your support after so many chapters!, havelock, Mi Su, Anna, Jezebel, Shikala, crimson nightmare – I'm so so so glad you liked the chapter! I was already writing it in the early stages of Part 1, so I'm really really really happy that you like the result of it! Surprises are…good! I think! LOL! Well…pure alcohol…when you get trained for it? I don't know. Draco probably *did* go blind when he first drank it, but that was…I'm not telling! Will tell later! :p! LOL…the Snape and Hermione interaction was funny, haha. Some of my teachers actually do that! Thank you SOOOOOOO much for your review, and hope you found this (short) chapter enjoyable as well!, Milady69, Queen Vegeta, mystic-flower – Speechless is…good? ^-^ Thank you so much! But thank *you* for your review! Hope you like this chapter…and forecast for the next chapter is…fluff. Break out the cotton candy machines, hehehe…^-^…yes, I'm lame. But it's after 4am where I am right now, so I'm a bit irrational! :D, Jubilee – The thing with the hair is not over yet! I will be talking about it again! Er, soon! Like. Soon!!!!! ^-^ Hm. I hope this chapter clears why Draco cut off his hair. And the woman in the movie you mentioned…I think that's why she cut it off as well? It's more a symbolic thing than anything else, I think! LOL. I promised Hermione/Ron, so I put it in! But not a lot. Harry/Draco are still the main characters. In fact, the next few chapters will mostly feature them…and Booboo, because, well. Booboo. Hehe…OOO you're applying to BU too! Ooh, do, do! Of course you could pick my brain…er…not in the literal sense! Exams are soon, but I always have time for questions ^-^ …and I completely understand where you're coming from about Lucius. hehehe. I love how he looks in the movie…so deliciously EVIL! Hope you like this chapter, and thank you so much for your review!!!!, S. Wing – Glad to know you're enjoying it…hope you like this one, too! Thank you so much for your review!!!, Yoink Daydurfurits, Bunny-kuo – Wow. Thank you for your great review! And no, you're not creepy, not by far!!! Emotional is good! Because stories with emotional themes are supposed to feed on the emotions of the readers, so yes! Thank you!!! *snogs you back*…and yes. Harry could be quite dense sometimes. Hope you like this chapter!, Amy-la, Cheyseri@aol.com, TanisaFyre - *is hiding behind laptop*…*wince*…yup. Late again for chapter update. *hides some more*…hope you like, though! Thank you so much for your review! I never really know what to say when people tell me they cried. It's probably the best thing an angst writer could hear (so thank you!) but on the other hand, we've grown up learning that making other people cry is a bad thing…ah well! I'll take it as good! Thank you!!!!!, Liliku, real bluefalls dark.ness, queenofgondor21 – Draco will get better, promise! Absolutely promise! I can't wait to see how it ends either, to tell you the truth…haven't thought it properly yet! Thank you for your review, and hope you keep reading!!, The Insane Floo Pot – I'm *sososososo* sorry it always takes so long for me to update! I don't know why! Eeee…but hope this chapter was good enough ^-^ The fluff is coming next chapter! Absolutely promise!!!!!! *hands you boxes of tissues* - I know these are late, but hope you find them useful anyway! I've decided to let Harry off as well. Otherwise there won't be any H/D fluff…and we can't have that now, can we? ^-^ As for Draco's hair…it's not over yet *low, menacing voice that doesn't work*…muahahahahah…er. Um. Yeah. Thank you so so so so so much for your wonderful review!, GLow, Silmarien – Me, I thought vomiting blood was way disgusting…but way awesome, hehehe…poison is. Well, you know. And alcohol is actually kinda normal, so I had to make it a special Malfoy Liquor. Fun ^-^ Hope you enjoyed this chapter, and thank you for reading!!!!, throbbing-squirm – Yay! Thank you so much for your review! I outlined the last chapter when I was still in the early stages of Part 1…so I'm immensely glad to find out that you enjoyed it so much!!!! But…eee…this chapter is short, so sorry! Will do best to make next one longer! And yes! The end is nigh! I just need to work out how to end it. Hope you like this chapter anyway!, Anita Blake, Klea, Aurenne, Lia Santana – Soooooo glad to hear you enjoyed the last chapter, and hope you enjoy this one too! The hair cutting thing…hope I cleared it up here, because it's more of a symbolic thing than anything else…Um…*blush*…pills? Er. Um. *blush*…It was alcohol…Oh, and Hermione? Definitely book-smart. I don't think she has much street-sense at all, otherwise she wouldn't have been friendless in the first book where Ron was making fun of her behind her back. Ooh, happy you liked poetic!Crabbe as well…and thank you for your review!!!!!, I Am The Bunny Slayer, jeannie81, xing@fanfiction.net (Anonymous reviewers), TheUnknownJedi, Alura, Marie McBride, Ladyblondhair, coriander – I did too, but then killing yourself is immensely…predictable! I feel the same way about books and fiction. Maybe that's why I *have* to have happy endings…I can't stand it when fiction mirrors real life so well that there's a sad ending. *sobs* Thank you SOSOSOSO much for your review!!!, elfee, Lotta, Dracavia – Oh, thank you so much for your review! I love how you summarised Harry so well! ^-^ But sorry that I took so long until the next chapter…I don't mean to, really!! But hope you enjoy this chapter anyway! :D, antarianprincess, YG, Krystal, Kitori – *hangs head*…I know…took me long enough…but maybe you like this chapter enough not to throw tomatoes at me? I try not to end on cliff-hangers…but suspense is a good thing as well! Because if I was the reader of the last chapter, I would have smashed my computer if the last few lines had been omitted…hehehe…Thank you for your review!!!!!!, Sunday – Thank you! And of course you'll get into uni! Harry could be really dumb, I think…*such* a guy sometimes, but not to say that Draco's a girl…just that he's more…insightful? To be honest, I don't really want the story to end yet, either, but if I give them any more angst, it'll start turning into a soap opera…and I could see the end coming. *sigh*. My baby, and it's almost grown up. *sniff*. Heehee. So, yes, completely understand with you for feeling this way. Thank you for your review!!!, Anne Phoenix, frizzy, Tasha, demongirl, musegirl18, UltraHighDragonFly, KittenBabyGirl, obsidian - …so that's why Draco cut off his hair…if you don't get it, tell me! :D Thank you so much for your review…hope you enjoyed this chapter!!!, Lottalita – Not too short! Just…jagged. LOL. It's ok! Keep offering suggestions, and I'll do my best to make the ending perfect! Thank you very very much for your review, and hope you like this chapter (with Boo in it)!!!!!, Lunadeath, J-J, Gryffindor1, Nix – I'm so sorry that you had to wait so long – but I hope you found the wait worthwhile with my meagre offering that is this chapter…hope you enjoy this chapter, and the ones to come!, MOI – Thank you so much for your review! Perhaps this chapter helped explain why Draco cut off his hair? It's a very precious thing…long hair…because it takes time to grow, and it's almost like a body part…Um. Not exactly, but I hop you get what I mean. Hope you enjoyed this chapter!, PEACHDANCER82 – Hi! Thanks for your review. And now for the answers to your questions. Firstly, if you wear the ring on your right pinkie, it means you're attached to someone of the same sex. Draco wears it on his neck partly to show that he is bisexual (or gay) and partly to symbolise his attachment to Harry, which was kept a secret at first, but had to remain so even after they got together, mostly because they were almost the representatives of their enemy houses. Secondly, Narcissa wasn't captured because she was working as a spy, like Snape was; she was an informant to the Order, and so escaped capture. Hope that answered your queries, and thank you very much for your review! Hope you enjoy the rest of the story!, Phoenix Tears – Thank you so much for your wonderful review! Hope this chapter cleared the significance of Draco's hair-cutting. And yes! Booboo! Heehee. It was strange, because I had the first 20 lines or so typed up right after I posted the last chapter, and then I saw your review and was all "dude…she read my mind!" LOL! You rock! Great minds think alike, heh…Thank you again!, SparkySparkles – Thank you for your review! Romance is up next, so Harry and Draco can rest a bit there, and bask in each other's company ^-^. Hope you enjoyed this chapter!, Lilyria Ali – Hi!!!!!!!!!!!! Thanks for your reviews! Just…thank you so much! And yes…definitely happy ending. Definite! Hope you like this chapter too! :D, blackunicorn – Sorry this took so long to come out, but thank you very very much for your review, and hope you enjoy the story!, BurningSilence – Draco's okay! Er…I think! Heeheehee…more angsty stuff would be fun…Heeheehee!! And thank you so much for your review, I love new readers! :D Hope you like this (shorter) chapter too!, Jennifer01 – Thank you for your review! More coming, just maybe not as soon as I always anticipate it to be…! Hehehe…jealous!Ron is a funny thing, because it seems to be a rather…big part of his character, no? Hm…!, Epitome of Narcissism – Ooh, thank you so so so much for your review! Crying is a good thing when it's an angst fic! And definitely happy ending. Definite, I swear Booboo on it that it is! School has been closed because of the SARS thing in Hong Kong, but even more work to do now. Ick. Hope you like this chapter!, Celtic Flame – Thank you so so so much! I'm actually really honoured that I made you cry with the angst…sounds strange, but crying at angst is a good thing…I think! Oh, and I'll have a happy ending, so Harry and Draco will get together…eventually! And thank you, BU was my first choice! :D Ooh, and another thank you for putting me on your favourites list! Thank you so much!, Lady Malfoy – ^-^ I like how the cutting hair was so unpredictable! It's also kinda symbolic, and probably would do more damage than a suicide attempt. I think. Um. Because. Like. Er. Yeah. ^-^ And thank you for your wonderful compliments! There will definitely be a happy ending…meanwhile, hope you enjoyed this chapter!, Mrs. Souma Akito – Hehehe…hopefully, you've read up to this chapter…and hopefully, you've enjoyed it so far…and hopefully…you enjoyed this latest one, too! Thank you for your review!
