Love, by Accident: Contacts and Reassurance


When Snape came in he was automatically briefed on the situation. "Has anyone contacted Dumbledore?" he asked.

Lupin opened his mouth to say something, but closed it. "No," he finally said.

"I'll owl him," Lucius said, taking out his wand and with a flick of it parchment and a quill appeared in front of him.

"You can send Hedwig with it," Harry told him as Draco took a seat in a chair and pulled Harry onto his lap.

Lucius nodded and began writing.

"And we're sure it was Sirius?" Severus asked.

"Harry and I talked to him, he feel through the veil, apparently no one knew it lead to another plane of existence, not death." Draco said.

Snape nodded, "We'd discussed the possibility," he said taking a seat, "Dumbledore and I, but after a few months and still no sign of him we'd presumed he had just died."

"Harry, your bird?" Lucius asked and the raven-haired boy went up stairs and retrieved Hedwig.

"Now what?" Harry asked.

"We wait," Lupin informed him.

So they did, they waited, Severus and Lucius conversing about the universe Sirius might have been taken to, Lupin tuning in and out of the discussion, mostly sulking. Draco was playing with Harry's hair as the Gryffindor closed his eyes and rested, the blonde making comments every once in a while. Like, "Do you ever brush this mop!?" and, "Wouldn't kill you to get a trim, I mean, honestly, a horse doesn't have this many split ends!" Harry just smiled and chuckled, eyes still closed.

Almost an hour passed before Hedwig returned. Lucius took the note from the snowy owl, which then went over to Harry for a treat, "Sorry girl, I don't have anything at the moment," she hooted and sniped his finger before flying off again.

Everyone directed their attention to Lucius. "He says he can't come in right away, he has to prepare a few things for the arrival of students tomorrow," The elder Malfoy read, "'Keep Sirius in Grimmauld Place', and he'll be around as soon as possible. Then he goes on to say he assumes Harry and Draco will be returning to school later." He looked up, "We're to hold an emergency Order meeting as soon as Black is up and going again."

Lupin nodded.

"We should go," Lucius said to Snape, "I'll be back in the morning, Good night Remus, Harry, Son." And they left.

Lupin put a hand over his eyes, "Is he in your room?" he asked Harry.

"Yes."

Remus nodded, "I'm going to bed, good night."

When it was just Harry and Draco, Draco looked at Harry, "Well," he said, "It's been one hell of a holiday."

Harry laughed and put his hands on Draco's cheeks then pulled him in for a kiss. "That it has."


"Harry, he's not going to care," Draco whispered. The pair were in their bedroom, discussing sleeping arrangements while trying not to disturb Sirius' sleep. "He's gay, he slept with his boyfriend, I don't see why we can't..."

"I just...it's weird, being in the same room with him, and then having him find us in the same bed," Harry said, glancing over at his slumbering godfather.

"It's not like we're going to have sex while he's in the room, we're just going to sleep."

"Draco, why are you pushing this? What's the difference if we just split beds for tonight?" Harry asked glaring at his boyfriend.

Draco averted his eyes and scratched the back of his head, and then he muttered something incoherent.

"What?"

"I can't sleep without you," the blonde repeated through gritted teeth.

Harry's face lit up in a big smile. "Draco!" He squealed.

"Shh, Sirius," he put a finger over his lips.

"That's the sweetest thing you've ever said," Harry whispered hugging the blonde who wriggled uncomfortably.

"Yeah, yeah," he muttered a little ashamed.

Harry just looked at him and smiled, that all knowing smile, then pulled him into bed.

Draco pouted and pulled the covers up.

"Oh don't be like that," Harry said, "I thought it was sweet," he kissed the blonde, who bit Harry's bottom lip before he had a chance to pull away. Harry took this as an invitation to deepen the kiss. He slid his tongue inside of Draco's mouth and explored.

Draco rolled on top of him, hands making their way under Harry's shirt and grazing his toned abs. He pulled off the Gryffindors shirt and began playing with his nipples, pinching them and lightly pulling, arousing Harry to a great extent.

The blonde could feel the bulge in Harry's pants against his thigh; he smiled and let his hands wander to near his boyfriend's waistline.

"Ahem."

Both boys froze at the sound of someone clearing their throat. They sat up.

"Well, I don't know about you two but I need my rest," Sirius said from across the room, trying to hide a smile.

Harry blushed crimson before laying down in bed, Draco a few feet away, and turning out the light.


The next morning Harry woke up to the sound of yelling from downstairs.

Lupin and Sirius.

He sighed and rolled over to face Draco. The Slytherin was sleeping soundly. Harry lightly brushed a blonde lock out of his face and admired his boyfriend.

There was a crash from downstairs and a voice Harry knew as Sirius' yelling, "I would have waited!"

Harry winced and turned onto his back, closing his eyes and trying to remember when life was at peace.

"You were dead! I didn't know anything else but that! Ask anyone they'll tell you, I was miserable for months!"

Harry opened his eyes to find Draco propped up on one elbow watching him. "It'll pass," he said as Harry collapsed into his arms.

"You don't know that!" Harry sobbed, Remus and Sirius were the closet things he had to an actual family, and they too, were falling apart.

Draco held Harry at arms length and looked him in the eye. "They love each other?" Harry gave a slight nod, "Then it'll pass."
