Chapter Five
Two Years Later
Harry Malfoy-Potter woke up two years later in a hospital bed and gown. He sat up, feeling incredulously dizzy, and lay back on the bed. Did he have a concussion or something? What happened?
"Oh, goodness!"a voice exclaimed from the door. "You've finally awoken, Mr Potter!"
"What…do you mean when you say 'finally'?"Harry asked in confusion.
"That concussion must have done something to your head, dear,"the nurse replied. "You've been in a coma for two years. Two people who I believe to be Ron and Hermione Weasley, had run over you with a car at a Swiss Chalet restaurant, just after you and your husband and Uncle exited."
Husband…his eyes widened. Draco! Was he okay?
"Where is he? My husband? Is he all right?"Harry asked.
"Well, he's been…withdrawn from the world, Harry,"the nurse said. "The accident affected him so greatly that he withdrew from everyone, refusing to speak or be in the presence of anyone. He loves you that much, Harry."
Harry sighed. "Is he ok physically?"
The nurse nodded.
"Good,"Harry sighed, and lay back on his bed, looking up at the ceiling, then got up again. "What about my parents?"
"They have been nervous wrecks ever since your accient,"the nurse said. "Whenever someone brought you up by accident, things would explode in the house or they would break stuff purposely."
Harry was almost nervous to ask this. "And Sirius?"
"Oh, not in a good state at all, Harry,"the nurse said sadly. "You needed to return. I am so glad you did. I will inform them all right away."
Harry nodded and the nurse left Harry to cope with his feelings alone.

Draco Potter-Malfoy sat on the couch of his home, staring at the fireplace in a daze. Two years. Two years since the bastard and bitch ran over his husband, landing him in limbo, or a coma, somewhere between life and death. He was starting to lose hope. He only spent time with Lillian and baby Harry, and the court had brought up that since Draco was in such a bad mental state, he was not aloud to look after his daughter. Damn them! Curse them! If they knew who he was, they would be trembling in fear! The only good thing the court did was put Weasley and Granger in Azkaban for crimes against the Boy-Who-Lived-So-Many-Freaking-Times-and-the-Boy-Who-Has-So-Many-Damn-Hyphens-In-His-Name. They were being given the Dementors Kiss, something the whole Wizarding World thought they deserved.
His privacy was disturbed by someone in the fireplace. A nurse. Draco was almost too scared to ask. "H-How is he?"
The nurse sighed. "He just woke up."
Draco could have screamed in joy. "You're kidding!"
The nurse shook her head. "I went into his room this morning, and he was wide awake, staring at the ceiling."
Draco sighed, feeling of relief passing over him. Relief that Harry was alive.
"Can I see him? How is his mental and physical state?"Draco asked.
"Yes you can see him. He is ok mentally but he has a concussion in his head, and it left him a bit confused this morning when he woke up,"the nurse replied.
Draco nodded. "St Mungos?"
The nurse nodded and disappeared. "Good day."
Draco ran into the kitchen where the Marauders, Lily, Lillian, and now three-year-old Harry were sitting. They looked at him with almost pity, but when they saw the look on his face, told them something had happened.
"What happened?"Lily asked.
"Is daddy all right?"Lillian asked.
"Harry's awake,"Draco said, not even believing his own words. "A nurse just flooed here and told me. We can go see him. His mental state is fine and everything in his physical state is fine except for a concussion that left him a bit confused."
Everyone sighed and before one of them had a chance to talk, Draco ran into the room, grabbed floo powder, yelled "St Mungos!" and was gone.

Harry looked at the window, and saw something he would never expect. Hedwig! She was pecking at the window, wanting in. Harry chuckled and got up. He opened the window, letting her in, and he settled back down in bed. Hedwig landed on his shoulder, cooing at him.
"Hey, girl,"Harry greeted. "I haven't seen you in ages. Have you been to visit me?"
Hedwig hooted a yes. (Don't know if that's possible...but, oh well.)
Before Harry could talk again, he was enveloped in a tight hug. He looked to see who it was hugging him. Draco. He hugged him back, tighter than Draco was.
"Oh my god, I thought you would never wake up!"Draco yelled. "God, I missed you!"
"I missed you too, Dray, Limbo's lonely,"Harry said, grinning.
"Ha!"Draco said, but hugged Harry tighter. "How come you were there so long?"
"Tests, to prove if I was still allowed to live...whatnot...junk, mostly,"Harry replied.
"Allowed to live? What?"Draco asked, confused.
"I'll explain later, people might think I'm insane,"Harry said.
"You might be, you just don't know it yet,"Draco smirked and the next thing he knew, he had a pillow in his face.
"I wouldn't say that again,"Harry warned, but was laughing all the same.
Today was the best day, one which would last a lifetime.
