Draco Malfoy's Little Black Book
Chapter 4
Harry woke up feeling strangely comfortable but had no idea where he as. The first thing he noticed was that he was tucked up tightly in bed. But it wasn't his bed! Sitting up he noticed that the sheets were made of black silk and the bed was huge! He looked room and to his horror discovered than Draco was sleeping uncomfortably on a chair next to his bed. Harry panicked and attempted to get out bed but slipped on the silk sheets and went crashing to the floor. Quietly still lying on the floor he stuck his head up over the bed to see if he had woken Draco and was relieved when he saw that the other boy was still asleep.
Harry sighed as he remembered why he was here. How in a stupid fit of rage last night he had managed to completely break down, only to be rescued by the last person he wanted to see.(or was it). Harry watched the blond boy sleep. He had a fair complexion and long blond hair which he had stopped slicking back and now let it free to flow over his shoulders and frame his pretty face. Harry paused, did he just think that Draco had a pretty face?! It was true though, he thought, Draco really was beautiful and at the same time was confidence, experienced and mysterious. Harry sighed again, could Draco really like him or was it just because he had too. More to he point, he thought to himself, could he really like Draco!
Draco opened his eyes which instantly filled with fear when he saw that the bed was empty. Jumping up he relaxed a little when he saw Harry sitting on the floor next to the bed hugging his knees. He walked around until he was next to the boy on the floor and reached down to touch him on the shoulder but withdrew his hand quickly as he saw how Harry flinch at the contact.
Harry looked up to see a hurt expression on Draco's face as he took a tentative step backwards as if not wanting to frighten him. Harry tried a smile and was amazed to see how quick Draco's face changed from uncertainty and pain to happiness in seconds.
"Good morning!" Draco said, deciding it might be best not to mention how he found Harry last night until the boy was ready to talk to him. "Did you fall out of bed?" he smirked offering Harry a hand to pull him up from the floor.
Harry looked at Draco's extended hand and slowly accepted the offering quietly surprised at the smoothness of Draco's skin. "I'm not use to silk sheets." Harry mumbled a little embarrassed. Draco positively beamed at him suddenly realizing the innocence and purity of his chosen mate, he felt slightly uncomfortable as his mind wandered back to his Little Black Book and he wondered for a moment if Harry would have anyone to speak of. Draco mentally shook his head back into the present, that conversation was one he was looking forward to but not until Harry trusted him a bit more.
Draco noticed Harry just standing watching him as if like waiting a child to be told what to do. Draco smiled at Harry again wanting to keep the morning happy and light until Harry was more comfortable around him. "Well", Draco began, "this is my private room that Dumbledore gave me and over here" he said leading Harry around the room, "is a room, well a room where you can stay." Draco paused and upon no response continued the speech he had been planning half the night. "You don't have to of course, but, well, Dumbledore thought that as my chosen partner we should get to know each other a bit more, if you wanted that is, and your things are already here but your owl is outside and um, well I will be jealous of you at all times and want to be around you, I can't help it you know, not that I don't want to be and I will always protect you Harry, and."
Harry couldn't help but stare Draco was acing like Ron around Hermione, Harry held up his hand and covered Draco's mouth to make him stop talking. Draco's nearly died of surprise as Harry willingly touching him he felt so happy from his mates closeness him felt like he could explode. Lucky, he thought to himself, that I have been well trained in controlling myself or Harry wouldn't know what had hit him right about now!
"Draco!" Harry said with a laugh removing his hand. "I understand and its ok, you have to love me, Hermione has told me all about it." Draco noticed how Harry's face fell at the mention of his friends name but said nothing letting the boy continue, "and the way I see it we might as well get to know each other a bit, if that's what you want, because it will at least make things easier if you are going to be hanging around me for ever!"
Draco paused, he wasn't really sure what to say. Harry's comments weren't really positive or happy about the whole situation, but then again he didn't want to get angry at the boy, on the bright side at least he had accepted the fact and wanted them to get to know each other better. Draco gave Harry a strange smile, he couldn't believe that last night the boy cried himself to sleep in his arms and now he seemed to be back at step one, Draco had a feeling he was going to have to take things very, very slow. He held out his had to Harry indicating that he wanted to shake it, "Hello" Draco said, "my names Draco Malfoy!"
Harry rolled his eyes but shook his hand anyway laughing. He realized that he had been a bit harsh with what he had just said and secretly couldn't believe Draco was being so nice. Harry's thoughts were interrupted when the small table in the middle of the room was magically filled with food the same as the tables in the great hall. Draco laughed, "breakfast Harry?" Harry looked at the food, hungry for a moment but shook his head to Draco declining the offer. "Can I have a bath?" Harry asked quietly. Draco smiled again, Harry couldn't stand the fact that he looked positively adorable when he smiled like that mentally kicking himself for thinking such a thing!
Draco nodded and smiled "of course you can, you don't have to ask me you know this is your room as well, the bathroom is just through that door! But are you sure your not hungry?" Harry shook his head and walked off towards the door Draco had pointed out. Watching the boy leave Draco felt concerned, surely Harry must be hungry he hadn't eaten tea last night either. He heard the water running and started helping himself to some toast, he was going to have to find a way to show Harry that he did love him, and not because he had to either because he wanted to, and then he was going to have to start working out some of the boys problems! Draco shook his head, he had a feeling that there was a lot of work ahead of him, he was pleased that it was the weekend he need as much time as he could get. However he decided to start with maybe the biggest task of all, a letter to his parents.
Harry swam around in the bath, which was as big as the one in the prefect's bathroom. He felt warm and comfortable and decided to let his mind wander and sought things out by itself. He was angry at Ron and Hermione for not being supportive, he decided that he would just have to do this without them, it would be better that way anyhow he thought. He started to wonder about Draco, he was starting to realize that he had always liked him but had never really noticed. There was no harm in getting to know him he thought, and if he's nice, well what happens after that doesn't matter does it! Harry smiled at his decision and concluded that he would be nice to Draco as long as he was nice to him. In a way Harry knew he was making irrational choices but what option did he have, he closed his eyes and tried to forget all about it.
Draco re-read the letter:
Dear Mother and Father,
I hope this finds you well.
As you know I came into power. I have been lucky enough to have found my mate, and even more luck that he is taking things quite well. Yes father he. I am sure you will not be pleased but as you know nothing will change the situation. My mate is Harry Potter and all I can do is warn you to leave the boy alone. I will write again soon.
Your son, Draco
He nodded as he tied the letter to the leg of his eagle owl, it was just going to have to do.
Harry emerged from the bathroom some time later dressed in clean clothes and feeling terribly relaxed. There was a moment of uncomfortable silence between them where Harry watched his feet and Draco desperately tried to think of something to say. He was saved when an interesting thought came into his head.
"Harry, how would you like to play a game?" Harry just shrugged his shoulders but did walk over to sit on the couch opposite Draco. Draco smiled at him before continuing, "well this game is a getting to know each other better game where we ask each other questions taking turns, so we can find out more about each other." He waited for Harry's response. This game had been one of Dumbledore's suggestions to him to help him coax Harry out of himself.
Harry thought for a moment and then grinned, "Ok then, why were you always so mean?"
Draco nearly choked on the tea he was drinking it was something he had always known he was going to have to answer but he wasn't expecting questions this serious so soon, oh well, he thought if Harry wants to play serious that's fine with me. "Well." he started slowly, "to tell you the truth I was a different person then..." and he started to explain how he had only just turn into his true self on become a full powered lex-veela so that it really meant that he had liked Harry all along but had not been able to see it until now.
Harry nodded, he was both pleased and surprised by Draco's answer. Draco smiled at Harry's understanding and started asking Harry a few funny questions about his favorite food and color and things about classes. Draco had just finished telling Harry about his favorite Quidditch team when he couldn't help but ask a question that had been bothering him all morning, "Harry, what's going on between you and Hermione and Ron?"
As Draco watched Harry's face fall he wished he hadn't asked, the boys perfect green eyes dropped to his lap and he looked like he was about to cry. Draco rushed to his side in an instant hoping to comfort him. "Harry, I'm sorry it doesn't matter." When Harry looked up at him Draco felt his heart melt and it was all that he could do to stop himself jumping Harry there and then, he watched Harry bite his bottom lip in a way which teased Draco just too much, but the sadness in Harry's eyes helped Draco keep his mind as he slowly put a comforting arm around Harry's waist. He paused, waiting to see if Harry pulled away again but when he didn't Draco adjusted himself slightly so that he and Harry were both a bit more comfortable. He felt Harry sigh and then much to Draco's delight Harry snuggled towards him and buried his head in Draco's chest. Harry felt everything he had been holding inside him burst, things about growing up at his Aunt and Uncle's, Sirius's death, Ron and Hermione, thinking that liking boys best meant he would be alone forever, all his fears and worries started spilling out of him and Draco sat, silent, patting his back in a comforting way as Harry revealed his soul to him.
