oooooooooooooooo
Dumbledore glared down at the box sitting by his feet. You know your getting old when bending over is dangerous. Albus shifted the box gently with the tip of his shoe and listened as it rattled quietly. 'Well that can't be good!' He was so concerned with his box that he never heard the hastily said password before the door to his office was thrown open.
"Albus! Oh god. I knew it would happen. I knew it! I just never expected him! I why him of all people! It doesn't make sense!" Dumbledore guided Godric over to a chair before moving to sit behind his desk.
"Now Godric, I need you to calm down and tell me what's happening. Take a deep breath in through your nose and out your mouth. Good boy. Now, what's all this fuss about?" Glaring at his grandson angrily, Godric shifted and began talking.
"I was going to visit Blaise, as I usually do every Friday, and suddenly I hear a noise. It sounded oddly like someone Apparating. Which we both know is impossible to do within Hogwarts. So I walked toward the door I heard the noise coming from and knocked. Well I must have knocked a trillion times and no one answered so I kind of…..uh….well I went in." Dumbledore stared at him for a moment before muttering something and turning to look at his grandfather.
"Are you telling me you were breaking and entering?" Godric shuffled his feet and pouted guiltily.
"Well I entered, but I'm pretty sure I didn't break anything. Now listen, damnit! So I go in and its all dark and creepy and I'm looking for a light switch when I step on something soft. When I finally find the light I turned around and there, lying on the floor, was a dead snake. A dead snake Dumbledore! And after stopping I know what must have been 50 students one finally knew which teacher stayed in that particular room. A man by the name of Severus Snape, who if I remember correctly, was an avid follower of that Voldemort man. So explain to me why he'd have a dead snake lying around! And what about his sudden disappearance? He wasn't in his class room when I went to confront him!" Albus nodded a few times before coughing and standing up hurriedly.
"I'm sure he had a very important…uh…thing to do or else he never would have left a class without informing someone."
"And the snake, Albus?"
"I'm sure it was just used for potion ingredients. There's no problem here, Godric. Why don't you run on back to your rooms and take a rest. You look tired."
"Yes, yes….I think I'll do that. Thank you Albus." Godric left Albus standing in the middle of his office, a stricken look on his old face as he stared down at that same box as before. Which had started to quietly rattle.
Ooooooooooooooooo
Harry stared down at his pumpkin pie and felt his stomach jump. Could he feel any worse? Harry suddenly jumped up and raced out of the Great Hall heading towards the nearest loo. As he rested his pounding head against the stall, Harry gently pressed his fingers to his temple. God he felt terrible. Harry let out a sharp yelp as the door he was leaning against suddenly opened and fell backwards onto the cold tiled floor.
"Oh! Sorry, sweetie, I didn't see you. Are you alright? I thought maybe your sick or something…." Harry just smiled slightly and raised his hand, asking for Draco to help him up off of the floor.
"I'm okay, I guess, but my stomach is doing cartwheels and I feel really dizzy. I think I'm going to go lie down for awhile." Draco nodded and, entwining their fingers, lead Harry out of the restroom and headed towards their rooms.
Oooooooooooooooooo
Draco woke with a start. Looking down at the dark head lying on his chest, he smiled and slid quietly out from under the covers. Just as he was pulling on a pair of boxers there was a loud crashing noise from behind him, quickly followed by a scream. Draco stumbled in the dark over to the bed where he grabbed Harry and pulled him, completely naked, out into their little sitting room before reaching back inside and groping desperately for the light switch.
The room flooded with light and Draco looked around, his eyes wide and panicked. Harry had grabbed a blanket off the back of the couch and was standing behind Draco, pushing him forward gingerly. Walking into the room, Harry felt a breeze against his unclothed legs and followed the cool air towards the window. Draco quickly caught up to him and took his elbow. He jumped slightly when Harry gasped and cursed loudly. Looking down, Draco saw the glittering glass surrounding Harry's feet. Bending over slightly, Draco picked Harry up, ignoring his yelp of surprise and carried him over to the bed, before sitting down and pulling Harry's feet into his lap and inspecting them for cuts. Once he was satisfied that Harry wasn't going to bleed to death, Draco walked back towards the broken window.
"What the hell was that about?" Draco didn't turn around but still answered.
"I'm not sure, Harry. It happened to quick."
'Draco….someone broke our window." Quirking a brow, Draco nodded and started moving furniture away from the window incase it rained before he could do a quick spell to fix it.
For a moment he just stared down at the rock sitting on his floor. It had previously been hidden beneath the chair but now Draco could see the rough grey brick and the twine that was holding a little letter to the rock. Carefully picking it up, Draco walked back over to the bed and sat next to his boyfriend, holding the stone out for him to see, before pulling the note off and unfolding it.
Dear Harry,
It is my honor to announce the untimely demise of two of your very dear friends. Sadly they are needed for certain purposes, but the time of their usefulness is nearly over and then….well then their lives will truly be over. Unless, yes, unless you deliver yourself, completely unguarded to 517 Winston Lane, London England on the thirteenth, which it so happens, is a Friday. Interesting, isn't it, the way these things work out? Until we meet again, goodbye.

"There's no way in hell I'm letting you go Harry, so you might as well get that idea out of your head. Come on, we're going to talk to Dumbledore. He'll know what to do." Grabbing Harry's hand, Draco rushed towards the door, grabbed some shorts for Harry, and headed for the headmasters office. Harry walked quickly behind him, holding his stomach and thinking.
Ooooooooooooooooooooo
"Jelly Beans!"
"Gummy Bears!"
"Tooth Paste!"
"Tooth paste?"
"Shut up. Parfait!" The door to Dumbledore's office jerked open and Draco smirked at Harry triumphantly. Rushing up the stairs, Harry ignored him and pushed Albus' door open before running inside.
"Dumbledore!"
"Headmaster!" They both jerked to a stop as they stared at Albus Dumbledore's still form lying on the floor in a pool of blood, as box clutched desperately to his chest.

Harry stood at the side of his and Draco's bed and watched his boyfriend sleep peacefully. He felt sharp tears come into his eyes as he thought of what he was about to do. Harry took a quiet step forward and dropped a kiss on Draco's forehead, before pulling his coat tight around himself and grabbing his broom. He glanced down at the piece of paper clutched tightly in his fist, which simply read '517 Winston Lane London, England'……
Ooooooooooooooooooooooo
A/N- A short chapter that is crappy and weird and pointless, but I had to find some way to break the news to you guys and some time around 3 AM this just sorta happened. Try not to kill me, later.
