Together or Apart

It was almost Christmas at Hogwarts school of Witchcraft and Wizardry. The hall had been decorated, and so had most of the school. Nearly all the students had remained at Hogwarts; this was because parents felt it was safer for them to remain there, instead of coming home with the threat of Voldemort hanging over them.

Harry had gotten special permission to go to Diagon alley, Professor Snape was with him. He wanted to get the perfect Christmas present for Draco, he already had one. There was one more thing he wanted to get, and a letter had arrived that morning to tell him that it was ready.

He walked into the jewelry store and walked up to the desk, a sour professor Snape following him. The clerk came out and asked politely. "Can I help you sir?"

Harry smiled warmly and replied, "Yes, I received a letter this morning stating my order had come in."

The young female clerk nodded her head and asked, "Can you give me your order receipt, please."

Harry handed over the small piece of paper; the young woman took the paper and walked into the back, she returned a few minutes later with a small velvet box in her hand. She opened the box and showed Harry the contents.

There laid a ring, platinum and gold twists. Stones of emerald and topaz lay within. In the ring inlay were inscribed the words 'Draco & Harry, entwined forever in time.' Harry nodded his agreement of the ring; the clerk wrapped up the ring and handed it to the young man. He had already paid for it, so Severus and Harry went back to Hogwarts.

Harry and Draco agreed that although they hadn't been together for long, things between them felt right. They loved each other more than anything else; they were going to have a baby in just over four months.

They were both excited and getting worse as the weeks went on. The small bump had grown and people could see it better now. The first time the baby had kicked was when they were in Transfigurations; Draco had jumped half a mile startled by it. Harry couldn't stay away from him; a hand was on Draco's stomach for the rest of the lesson.

He walked to his room in the Gryffindor tower, expecting to see Draco on the bed resting, as he had been tried a lot lately. He wasn't there, he walked out of his room and down into the Gryffindor common room, he saw Hermione and Ron snuggled together on the couch.

Walking over to the pair, he asked, "Have either of you two seen Draco?"

Hermione looked at Harry's slightly worried face and replied, "He went for a walk a while ago."

Harry walked out of the common room and carried on walking through the grounds of Hogwarts, until he came to his and Draco's favourite place to sit and relax by the lake. Draco's wand and some blood was all he could see, a piece of parchment flew into his face. He pulled it away and read the note:

Potter,

My master has use for Draco, I am glad he was able to get away, but a few others have been sent to get him. I left this note for you. Please Potter I may serve the Dark Lord, but I have no wish for my son to die. He is being held at Malfoy Manor, the Dark Lord is there as well; be careful Potter.

Malfoy

Harry reread the note, not believing the words printed on the page. His beloved Draco was taken by Voldemort and his followers. Lucius was trying to help him; he didn't know what to think. He ran as fast as he could to the gargoyle that guarded the headmaster's office. Shouting out the password, he burst into Dumbledore's office

"Professor Dumbledore, they have Draco, they have him," he nearly shouted his voice filled with panic and fear.

Dumbledore gestured to Harry to sit down, but Harry remained standing. "Calm down Harry, I have some bad news. We have no one that we can send after Draco, I am sorry Harry." the headmaster truly had a look of deep regret on his face.

"There has to be someone who can go, please headmaster I can't lose him. He is a part of me," Harry said, tears beginning to form in his eyes as he paced around the room.

"I am sorry, but no one will be available for a week at least Harry," Dumbledore said, as he stood up and took hold of Harry and held him, giving him some comfort in this time of need.

Harry struggled out of Dumbledore's arms and ran from the room; he didn't stop until he reached the Gryffindor common room, where Hermione and Ron stopped him from going to his room. Instead of answering Hermione and Ron's questions he showed them the note.

Hermione looked up from the parchment and straight at Harry. "You're going after him aren't you?"

Harry nodded his head, not looking up at them. Ron spoke this time and said, "We'll be going with you Harry; you will not be able to leave us here."

"No you'll stay here, I won't put anyone else in danger because of me," he told them, running to his room. Hermione and Ron looked at each other. They smiled and ran out of the common room. They continued to run; they had a plan to help Harry. First though they need help and they knew just who to go to.
