Once everything had calmed down a bit, the three of them sat in the kitchen in their living quarters. They didn't really have much to talk about.
"You said you would explain things to me later but I think I've already heard everything." Severus nodded his head.
"You probably have. Did you know she was a Gryffindor? She was actually best friends with Lily Evans. That's why I thought it was a good idea for you to go to them." Harry didn't know that but he looked happy with the information.
"How about after we finish we have a 3 player seekers game?"
"You play?" asked Harry not sure if he did.
"Why yes as a matter of fact I do. So what are you waiting for? Let's go." They all got up, put on their quidditch gear, grabbed their brooms and were off.
***Quidditch pitch***
"Alright I assume you all know how to play this right?" They looked as though they weren't sure. "Ok it's quite simple we all search for the snitch and the first to get it wins. There will be a bludger but it will be wild with no one hitting it." They looked as though they understood now.
"Alright, let's get started." they were off frantically looking for the snitch. They were searching for about ten minutes when Harry saw it floating about ten feet above his fathers head. He flew as quickly as he could to where hi father was but just before he got there he noticed it was gone. He looked to his father. "Where'd it go?"
His father started laughing. "What? You mean this?" He held out his hand showing that he had already caught it. They landed and were soon joined by Draco. "Why don't we go back in?"
"That sounds like a good idea," said Draco a bit out of breath.
They walked back into the living quarters. "Is there anything else you guys would like to do today?"
"I don't know why don't we play BS?" asked Harry Draco got a look of utter confusion on his face."
"BS, What's BS?"
"It's a muggle card game. It's my favorite. You do know what face cards are don't you?" Draco nodded his head. "Alright in BS you start at ace and keep going in order until someone gets rid of all their cards. You put down cards and people have to guess if your lying or not."
"Alright I get it. It sounds like fun. Let's play."
The game only lasted about 5 minutes (which evidently Draco won); they played a few more times. At this point it was about 2 o'clock. They had a whole day still ahead of them and nothing to do.
"I think I'm going to read." Once this was said Draco walked into his room.
"Harry I was wondering if I could talk to you about something."
"What is it?"
"I was just wondering why it was that you look so tired all the time." Harry said something under his breath so his father couldn't here. "What was that Harry?"
"I have nightmares, a lot of nightmares. They are mostly about the third task."
"Mostly? What else are they about?"
"Well sometimes it's Voldemort attacking people. Other times it's about the Dursley's."
"Harry you should have said something earlier. I could have gotten you a dreamless sleep potion. Would you like to help me make it for you?" Harry nodded and he and his father headed to the potions classroom.
***Potion's classroom***
"Ok Harry you stay here and start boiling water, I'll get the ingredients." Harry nodded and filled one of the cauldrons with water and put it on one of the burners. His father was back in about five minutes.
"Alright Harry let's get started. I'll measure out the ingredients and you add them. It's a pretty simple potion. Make sure you stir counter clockwise."
"OK" They started working on the potion which took them longed then Harry expected it was going to take. "I thought this was supposed to be easy?"
"It is, just a bit time consuming. It should only take about five more minutes then we'll leave it to cool." Harry nodded as he continued to mix the potion.
Once they completed the potion, they went back to their living quarters. On the way back they had a very boring conversation.
***Harry's POV***
I hate it when people try to get information out of me. I guess he was just trying to help me but I don't know. Nothing we talked about even seemed important to me. He was talking to me about my life at the Dursley's. I didn't tell him anything he didn't already know because there wasn't much to know in the first place.
Once we got back, I went to my bedroom and stayed in there until dinner. I was hoping my summer would get a little better. Seeing Snape like that was the weirdest thing I ever experienced. I guess I'll just have to get use to that.
I haven't really even talked to Draco yet so I'm not sure if he is going to be acting any differently. I already know were at least going to have to be tolerable around each other. I only ever knew Draco as being the ignorant slytherin punk. I wasn't sure if he was going to act like that anymore. I guess I'll find out this summer.
TBC
AN: Tell me what you think. Thanks for the reviews. Also I want people to vote if Harry and Draco should take on new identities or everyone should know that they're Harry and Draco. Please tell me what you'd like to see happen in this story. I'm pretty much just winging it!!!
