You say everything when you say nothing.
Chapter nine
The morning after the night before seemed so peaceful, the atmosphere was indescribably wonderful between them.
They knew both were awake yet they lay there in silence just simply existing together. They didn't move from that stance until just past noon.
The smelt strong of sex but there was really nothing they could do about that except open all the windows which they did before heading off to have a shower.
There was only one shower at Godric's Hollow so to safe time the two decided that it would be 'easier' and 'quicker' to shower together. However this theory didn't quite work as planed and it took them twice as long because they insisted on washing each other over and over before participating in small splash fights.
By the time they got out their skin had wrinkled and it was about quarter to one in the afternoon.
They were just considering going back to bed when an owl fluttered through the open window and dropped an envelope at Draco's feet.
He picked it up, he recognized the wax seal on the back, it was from his work. With shaking hands he opened it, took out the parchment within and read the contents.
Dear Mr Malfoy
I have been asked to withdraw you from Godric's Hollow and put you some where that your talent would be more greatly used, we expect you to be replaced by this afternoon. Your college Mrs Parkinson will be taking over with Mr Potter's treatment. If you have any queries please send a return owl immediately.
Yours sincerely
Mr K Dalglish.
Harry who had been reading over the blondes shoulder was horrified. He stepped back and looked at Draco's face that showed so many emotions that it was hard to depict one from the other.
"Harry, I..."
"You're...going."
"I don't want to, I'm going to fight to stay, believe me I'd rather be here without a job than any where else and with one."
"If...you...go."
"I won't, I promise you that, do you have any parchment or quills?"
Harry nodded pointing at the desk just out in the hallway. Draco went over to it and began to scribble a quick note. He even let Harry read it before attaching it the barn owls leg and letting it fly off.
Mr Dalglish
In response to your letter, I quit. I have broken the first rule when it comes to helping people, I've got involved and fallen in love with my client, Mr H Potter and I are extremely happy and do not wish for you to send any one else.
Sorry for any inconvenience caused.
Draco Malfoy.
"You'd...quit...for me?"
"I just did, hey your speaking is getting so much better, I'm so proud of your progress you know, you'll soon be back to normal."
Just as he said this he noticed that Harry was crying. He had no idea what had caused it but he wasted no time in comforting his lover.
"What's wrong honey, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to make you cry."
"You're...love, means...so....much to...me."
"Oh baby, I know, I can feel it, in my heart, you're that most special thing in my life, I'm not going to lose you any time soon."
They just seemed to hold each other in silence, each content just to be there. They weren't expecting what was coming next; they thought every thing would just be perfect.
