News Flies Fast
The next morning Blaise was eating breakfast with Hermione. Something was missing though, correction, two things were missing.
"Hermione, where is Harry?"
"He won't come out of his room." Hermione replied. "Ginny and I found him unconscious in front of the boy's bathroom on the third floor. It took us an hour to wake him up this morning and he said he wasn't leaving."
"What do you think happened?" Blaise asked.
"Do you really have to ask?" Hermione glared down the table at Ron. "He's been annoyingly happy since we brought Harry back." Hermione pointed to Ron. "I'll bet you all the money in Gringotts Bank that he did something to Harry and Draco, 'cause if you haven't noticed Draco
isn't here either." she smiled when Blaise scanned the Slytherin table looking for his best friend, as if Hermione was wrong.
"What? But I saw him walk down this way!" Blaise said nervously, beginning to panic. "Where did he go?"
"Blaise what's wrong?" everyone was looking at them now. Hermione pulled her boyfriend out of the Great Hall and into the hallway.
"It's Draco. We have got to find him." Blaise started walking.
"Why? What's wrong with him?" Hermione was starting to get worried.
"Remember how he was in Sirius room the other day and I told you to ask him about his issues…?" Blaise asked. Hermione nodded, Blaise pulled open a door and swore. He was checking every place he'd ever found Draco. "Well… his father found him writing stuff about how he feels about Harry. He locked him in the dungeon, barely feeding him… Draco tried to kill himself twice while down there. And I've caught him a few times this year doing it."
"Oh my god!"
"Exactly. If Ron did do something, Draco probably already a brink from death," Blaise added. He reached for the boy's bathroom door and pulled open. There sitting on the floor, legs scrunched to him but not harmed was Draco. "Drake, are you okay?" Blaise asked rushing to his friend.
"I'm fine Blaise." Draco replied. Blaise checked him though and didn't find one scratch. He sat down in front of him and Hermione next to him.
"Draco, what happened?" Hermione asked.
"Nothing."
"DRAKE!" Blaise just about screamed.
"Fine, I broke up with Harry."
"WHY?" They both screamed.
"I don't want to talk about it right now.."
"But-" Blaise started but Hermione interrupted him.
"Come on let's go Blaise." Hermione pulled him up.
"Wait…" Blaise stopped "Draco… promise me you'll be here when I wake up." Blaise's voice cracked, Draco didn't say anything. Blaise kneeled back in front of Draco. "I said promise me. Promise me you'll be there."
"I'll be there." Draco replied. Blaise checked him one more time to make sure he hadn't found his razor and then left with Hermione.
=( =( =(
"Sirius, what's wrong?" It was Remus, back from getting his wolfsbane potion.
"It's nothing you'd care about…," Sirius sighed. He was lying on his bed staring up at the ceiling.
"What? Yes I would!" Remus retorted.
"It's about Harry." Sirius replied looking at Remus. The werewolf's face dropped but he remained determined to know what happened.
"So… what's wrong?" Remus asked.
"You actually want to know?" Sirius sat up. Remus walked over and sat next to him and kissed his cheek.
"If it's got you all worried then I want to know. So dish up dude." Remus said smiling. Sirius laughed at Remus choice of words.
"Well…" Sirius sighed. "Hermione and Blaise just told me that Harry and Draco aren't together anymore. Hermione thinks Ron has something to do with it."
"Wow. Now I can't even be mad at him. I would hate it if we broke up" Remus frowned. "No-one should be without their mate."
"No, they shouldn't… and I don't know what to do. He wouldn't even come see me, and I can't go see him because he's got a locking charm on his bedroom." Sirius pouted.
"You think I could talk to him?"
"You?"
"Yes. I know how he feels. I lost you once remember?"
"That was different…"
"I still want to talk to him."
"Fine but if he bites your head off or if you end up ten feet off the ground, you won't be getting down until, he and Draco make up."
"I can deal with that."
=( =( =(
Remus knocked on Harry's door but got no answer.
"Harry it's me, can I come in?" Remus asked.
"What do you want?" Harry asked. The door open and Harry was standing there looking like he hadn't sleep in days.
"I want to talk to you"
"Why?"
"Look I'm sorry about the Sirius thing. I was just jealous, okay?"
"Whatever." Harry snorted.
"Come on, I apologized!"
"And I'm so happy for you!" Harry said sarcastically crossing his arms.
"Okay, look. I know how you feel okay, so I want to talk to you." Remus explained.
"You don't have the slightest idea how I feel." Harry replied.
"I do. I lost Sirius if you don't remember?" Remus reminded. "For thirteen years if I might add."
"Oh yeah…" Harry muttered. "So how is this supposed to make me feel better?"
"Hmm, I don't know I didn't think that far…" Remus smiled. Harry actually laughed. "You smiled, I guess I did my job."
"I don't think that counts" Harry smiled. "…I still feel bad."
"But you're smiling!" Remus argued. Harry rolled his eyes. "Fine! If it helps, and you want to talk just call, okay?"
"Sure, Remus." Harry beamed. "So does that mean you really forgive me?"
"Yes, I did say that."
"No you apologized to me and I want to apologize to you. I'm sorry for
kissing Sirius."
"Apology accepted" Remus smiled.
It wasn't till later that day that a certain person got what they deserved. Ron was walking down the hall by himself, not a smart move. He was quite happy with himself for breaking up Potter and Malfoy. His plan just might work. He hadn't counted on someone retaliating.
"So far from home and by yourself…" Ron stopped and realized he was
right in front of Harry's room
"Harry… Hi-" Ron squeaked. Harry glared at him and before he knew it, Ron found himself pinned to the wall.
A/N: It's kind of short but that last one was way long and the next one I'll try to make really long so yeah. Remember to review or I'll just D-I-E...DIE.
