Luna Negra and green eyed dragon: They're not real brothers, so it won't be incest. (At least not in my country. ^^)
**************************************************************************** ***
Lily and James looked at each other, then James stood up. "I'm going to tell Draco to wait just fifteen minutes longer."
Lily nodded and turned to Harry. "Harry, Draco is your brother."
Harry opened his mouth to say something, but Dumbledore raised his hand to cut him off. "Harry I want you to listen to me." Dumbledore began. "Four years ago, the war began after Voldemort had attacked Hogwarts. Nobody got hurt, but the school wasn't safe anymore and they send the students home. When our side was on the winning hand, Voldemort forced the children of deatheaters to fight in the war, too."
Harry remembered leaving Hogwarts. Hermoine had been very upset, because of all the lessons they would miss. Ron on the other hand had been happy, now they wouldn't have to go to school for a year.
"After Lucius Malfoy had died in the war, Narcissa Malfoy joined our side. She never wanted to follow Voldemort, but Lucius had forced her. Five months later a deatheater killed her and Draco was send to an orphanage." Dumbledore explained, sadness in his voice. "Finally, after a long, awful year, the war was over. The students were able to go to Hogwarts again, but all of the Slytherins, except Draco, had died. So they put Draco in Ravenclaw. Draco was very lonely. Everyone at Hogwarts ignored him and he had no one to talk to and to help him with his problems. Then one day you found him crying and you comforted him."
Harry suddenly remembered finding Draco, sitting on the floor in a classroom in the middle of the night.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Flasback:
Harry made his way back to the Gryffindor tower. He had just visited Dobby in the kitchen, to get something to eat.
When Harry walked past a classroom, he heard a soft noise coming out of it. Harry, as curious as he was, entered the room quietly. In the corner he saw a person sitting on the floor, hugging his knees and his head buried in his arms.
"Are you alright?" Harry asked softly.
Then the person turned his head in his direction and Harry found himself looking at none other than Draco Malfoy.
The blond Slytherin looked quickly away. "Get lost, Potter."
Then Harry did the first thing that came to his mind, he walked to the boy and wrapped his arms around him.
Draco tried to protest first, but then buried his head in Harry's chest and let himself be comforted by the Gryffindor.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
"From that day, you two were almost inseparable." Lily smiled. "A year later, James and I decided to adopt Draco."
"In my other past Mal... er Draco and I hated each other." Harry said a bit confused.
"I'm glad that it's not like that here." Dumbledore said. "Well, atleast not anymore."
"Professor?" Harry asked. "Erm the things that I don't remember..."
"Ah yes." Dumbledore cut him off. "It will take a while, but the memories will come back. Most of the memories from your other past on the other hand, will slowly vanish."
Harry nodded.
"Harry? Draco is not the same person as in your other past. Of course I don't now how that Draco was, but he must have acted terrible towards you. I know that you never hate someone without a very good reason. This Draco might still act like a little know-it-all, but inside he's very vulnerable and insecure. He needs you, Harry." Lily said, looking worried.
Harry nodded, but the thought of Draco Malfoy being his brother made him feel very awkward.
The door slammed open and Draco stormed in. "Harry, are you alright?"
"Er yes." Harry answered a bit unsure.
"Good." Draco smiled and made his way to Harry.
James and Madam Pomfrey, who was looking very angry at Draco, entered the room.
"Draco, I told you Harry was fine." James said with a smile. "You're way too concerned."
Draco frowned. "Am not." He murmerd. Then he turned to Harry. "Harry what happened?"
"I erm, I took a potion, but it didn't work out the way I had hoped for." Harry said, hoping Draco would believe it.
"Potion? What for?"
"For nightmares. I was having nightmares for weeks and couldn't get enough sleep because of them. The potion was supposed to make them go away, but I think I did something wrong."
"Harry, you could've asked me to help you. You know I'm very good at potions." Draco said, disappointed that Harry hadn't asked him for help. He always helped Harry with his potions.
"Mr. Malfoy, Harry did indeed do a stupid thing, but he has learned from it." Professor said, helping Harry out. "He has a headache and you're not helping him, with asking all these questions."
"I'm sorry Harry. I guess I was just worried." Draco said. Looking, to Harry's surprise, indeed sorry.
"A bit too worried." James grinned and pushed Draco playfully.
"Dad!" Draco tried to look angry, but failed and began to laugh.
'Draco Malfoy is laughing?' Harry thought. 'Now I've seen it all.'
"I'm sorry, but Harry needs his rest and..." Madam Pomfey began.
"Yes, we're leaving." James said, then he turned to Harry. "Lily and I will leave tomorrow, but we'll come to say goodbye first."
James and Lily gave Harry a quick hug, and left the room. What meant that Harry was alone in the room with Draco.
Harry looked at the blonde, who smiled at him. Harry looked quickly away and began to pluck at the sheets of his bed.
Draco didn't even notice Harry's nervousness and walked to the bed. "I'm glad you're better, Harry." Draco said. "Oh and Snape wanted me to give you you're homework. Just tell him it was my fault that you haven't got it, because I forgot." Draco gave Harry a hug.
Harry smiled at the blonde and returned the hug, feeling more awkward by the minute.
"Well, see you tomorrow then." Draco said, letting Harry go and he walked away.
Harry watched Draco leaving the room. Draco looked very nice, but Harry couldn't help thinking of all the times Draco had made Harry's life a living hell.
