Family System

Detention turned out to be a boring event, with Draco in Snape's storage room rearranging potions and I was cleaning the cauldrons across the room and Snape seating at his desk grading papers but keeping an eye on me, it was impossible for me to even try to speak to Draco. But finally three hours later the both of us were let go, with a warning not to wander or we would be in detention for the remainder of sixth year, of course that comment was directed at me.

"Come back to my room please." Draco asked as soon as we were out of the dungeons.

"I don't have my invisibility cloak." I told him regretfully. I could probably sneak in but there was always the risk of someone being up and then how would I get back with both Flinch and his cat patrolling the corridors?

"So then just stay the night, we'll skip first period and then you can sneak out." He pleaded softly with me already leading me to the slytherin common room.

"Draco I can't."

The blonde was paying no attention to what I was saying and wrapped his arms around my waist, tipped my head back and kissed me thoroughly. As we kissed in the middle of the corridors I knew that I would end up going to his room. I wondered why I wasn't as reluctant on sleeping over as I would have been weeks ago but I guess finally admitting to myself that I loved Draco made the decision easier.

We parted and he grabbed my hand. "Come on before Snape decides to check if we're in the halls." We walked quickly towards the slytherin common room.

Before long we made it to the stretch of bare, damp stone wall that would lead us into the common room. Draco turned to me. "Wait here, I'll check if there's anyone still in there."

I nodded and watched as he said the password and disappeared through the wall. I waited a few moments in the shadows and hoped no one was still awake. Draco came back with a smile and held his hand out which I took without hesitation. Our robes were already off as he opened the door to his room and locked it once we were inside.

"You are so beautiful." Draco murmured as he took off my shirt and put his lips to my neck. I moaned and let his hands take off my pants and boxers in one swift movement. The blonde took off his own clothes and we landed on the bed.

It was many hours later before either of us went to sleep that night.


My dreams that had been pleasant for most of the early morning hours had taken a turn for the worst, I started to twist and turn and my scar was stinging painfully. Abruptly I was where Voldemort was, In dark room surrounded by four other deatheaters. Trying to ignore the pain I listened carefully and to my horror realized the voice was coming out of my mouth or Voldemort's, whichever way you wanted to look at it.

"We need to attack as soon as possible and when the fool Dumbledore least expects it." Voldemort/me spoke cruelly to those around me. "I want everyone dead! Expect for Potter's relatives bring them back to me alive."

The robed men bowed down to Voldemort/me, it was revolting how they could follow a crazy-homicidal lunatic who paraded around like he was a pureblood when he in fact he was half-muggle born. But my thoughts soon disappeared and were replaced by pain, Voldemort was not happy about something. The pain got worst as the vision faded away and I knew I was going to scream. I opened my eyes wide and the scream came out muffled. Someone had their hand over my mouth and I struggled to get away but I was too tangled in the bed-sheets.

Concerned gray eyes looked down at me. "It's me Harry." Draco spoke gently and instantly I remembered that I had stupidly accepted to spend the night. This was another reason I always made sure to be in my own bed, incase I had a vision I didn't want Draco to be there to witness it.

"You're not going to scream right?" He asked in the same soft voice and I nodded. Carefully he removed his hand and I sat up, looking for my clothes at once.

"What happen? I woke up to you twisting around and you were muttering something in your sleep." He said as he sat up as well, his eyes never leaving me.

"I had a dream." I had already put on my boxers and was already snaking my jeans on.

"A dream about what?" Draco asked curiously.

"What do you think?" I didn't mean to sound so annoyed with him because I wasn't but the pain in my scar was still there and I needed to get to the headmaster's office before Voldemort attacked.

"You-know-who?" He said quietly and I paused from tying my shoes and turned to him.

I didn't say anything but nodded, his eyes widen just a bit. "Do you dream of him often?"

"I have to go Draco." I made for the door.

"Wait where are you going." He stood up from the bed not caring that he was naked. Draco always seemed more comfortable in his skin, whether he had clothes on or not.

"To Dumbledore's office."

"But it's 4:29am in the morning. He's probably sleeping." Draco said coming to pull me back into bed.

"Trust me he's not and I need to go. I'll see you later ok?" But as I was about to leave I stopped and turned back to him. "Could I borrow one of your cloaks with a hood?"

He stared at me with an unreadable expression for a moment before nodding and heading to his closet. After getting one he crossed the room and gave me a black cloak. "Here." He said still I couldn't tell what he was thinking.

I offered him a smile and place a kiss on the side of his mouth. "Thanks." And then I was out the door and walking quickly to the headmaster's office.


Two family died, seven houses burned to the ground another five were destroyed beyond repaired and fifteen people were injured. Four deatheaters were captured, two died, and one of them was injured and probably would have a limp for the rest of his life. Two Order members were dead and another six were in the hospital with injuries ranging from major to minor.

As for the Dursley's... they were sitting right next to me in Dumbledore's office. The only one that got hurt was Vernon, hit with a Crucio, and other then their house getting burned down they were just fine. Fine meaning they were able to blame me for everything.

"You are never setting foot in my house again! Do you hear me boy, never again!" Vernon bellowed at me.

"As I recall you don't have a house any more." I muttered darkly.

Vernon looked like he would have given anything he could just to hit me and I wish he would so that way I had a bona fide reason to hex him into next week. Yes I felt bad that their town got attacked, most probably because they were related to me but I refuse to feel any remorse for their house being burned down. The Dursleys have never been kind to me and I wouldn't expect them to change, even after I saved their life. Karma's a bitch huh?

"What I should have done is put you out of your misery the moment I saw you on my doorstep and that way you could have been with your whore of mother and goo-" He ended with a hiss of pain.

I stood with my wand pointed at him but before I could hex him with anything, Vernon was on the floor nursing a sore jaw. Neither of us saw the blow coming from Sirius who had been standing in the doorway listening.

"If you ever say anything about Harry, Lily or James I will kill you with my own hands got that Vernon?" He growled sounding very much like an angry dog.

Dudley looked like he wanted to disappear (like that would ever happen!) and Petunia was on the floor helping her husband but I was through with them and turned to my godfather who engulfed me in a hug. It had been months since I had last seen them and while still angry at my family, I was too happy to see Sirius again.

"Come on Harry. Dumbledore will be up soon and he can deal with them." He said and led me out the room turning into a dog. I let my godfather lead the way and soon we were in Room of Requirement.

We both entered and there was a couch waiting for us. I closed the door and Sirius was back in his human form. As I sat down he ruffled my hair. "How you holding up kid?"

"As good as I can Sirius. How are you?"

"Busy, I can't stay long but I wanted to chat with you for awhile." He said and I noticed the lines under his eyes. But Sirius was looking better and much healthier. It had been three years since he had escaped jail and every year he looked healthier.

"How long?"

"About an hour and then I have to go back to Grimmauld Place." Sirius gazed at me sadly but I grinned in return trying to cheer him up.

"At least we had an hour. Tell me what's new with Remus?"


Just like Sirius had said he had to leave an hour later and I returned to the headmaster's office. In truth I was dead tired, being up since 5 in the morning with Dumbledore and not eating much because I was too worried about the attack. I knew my friends were probably worried for they hadn't seen me since yesterday's quidditch practice but they were in class and I was helping out the Order.

I knocked on the door and heard the 'come in', opening the door I was thankful to see that the Dursley's were no where to be seen. I was happy that they were ok because no one deserves to be tortured and killed by Voldemort but we never got along and most probably will never.

"Ah Harry you should be at dinner with the rest of your house. I'm sure your friends are worried about you." The old mage pointed out his eyes twinkling.

"I will soon sir; I just came to ask about the Dursley's."

"I placed them in a safe house. Soon they will be able to move where ever they please but right now they still are in danger." He spoke in that gentle voice that I was so use too but still put me at ease.

"Thank you sir."

"No thank you Harry, it if weren't for you many people would be dead."

I blushed and after one last nod I made it out the door and towards the Great Hall where I could hear loud talking before even stepping in. I opened the doors and the previous chatting ceased as soon as everyone saw that it was me. Blushing harder I quickly made it to Gryffindor table and sat down next to Hermione who hugged me at once. The chatting started again but at a quieter note I noticed.

"Where have you been!?" She asked as she let go of me. "We stayed up late waiting for you to return from detention and then you didn't show up in the morning or turn up to any of your classes and there have been rumor that you-know-who attacked a town-" Hermione said this all in one breath and I was afraid she was gonna go lightheaded if she didn't pause.

"'Mione I'm fine nothing happen to me."

"But Harry-" Ron said but I cut him off.

"I'll you everything later promise but right now I'm really hungry." They nodded and we ate in silence.


"Ok Harry time to spill." Ron said as he closed the door to our dorm. He sat down on his own bed facing me and Hermione was next to him, I was on my own bed facing them.

"All right well I went to detention and you wouldn't believe who was there..."


A/n- Ok so the chapter totally took on a different turn then what I expected, but it will come in the next chapter all that I mention in the last author's note. I guess I wanted to develop more of Draco and Harry's relationship, have a bit of Sirius and remind everyone that Voldemort will play a big part later on in the story!

In simplest terms this was a filler/breather chapter!
