Chapter 4

'Tell Draco Goodbye'

DISCLAIMER: I do not own Harry Potter. There happy I said it! GRR! Stupid ungrateful…oh! Hi faithful followers::runs away:

"…so am I going to see you after Transfiguration?" Harry asked Draco while walking out of the Great Hall. The two had become close friends after Harry's celebration, although there would still be times when Harry would close down and build his wall back up.

"No, I have to go to see Snape after lunch to work on a new potion and I doubt I'll be done till eight tonight or so."

"Ok, I'll see you at our rooms tonight then." Draco nodded in agreement. "Alright well, I better go. Can't be late for Herbology." As the two newfound friends split directions no one noticed how two figures dressed in pure black robes followed one of the boys out of the castle.

Harry stepped out of the front doors of Hogwarts and slowly started to make his trek towards the Herbology Greenhouse's. Halfway there, Harry felt as if someone was following him. Gripping his wand, the raven-haired boy spun around revealing… no one. 'Merlin, I'm losing it!' Harry thought to himself, turning back and kept walking. He had been feeling like someone was following him all week yet there was never anyone there. Deciding that he had finally went around the bend Harry rushed off to Herbology.

Later that night, at around 7:45pm Harry was lounging in his couch with his Charms textbook, attempting to finish his essay. He had all the information down; it was just that he wasn't able to write it in a way that took up two or more feet. Harry drifted off to sleep just as the door was opening.

"Harry?" Draco, tenderly, pressed his lips to the raven-haired boy's, eliciting a soft moan.

"Mmm. Draco?" Harry asked sleepily, wrapping his hand in Draco's shoulder length blonde hair. Harry pulled the taller boy back down for another kiss.

Quickly the kiss turned more passionate. Hands started roaming. And the next thing either of them knew they were pulling apart panting.

"Wait. :pant: We can't. :pant: Not yet." Harry tried to protest although his body was going against him.

Draco, not yet wanting to end this, decided to pull Harry back down in a searing kiss. Moving his tongue over the smaller boy's swollen lips, the Gryffindor finally gave in and opened his mouth to make this kiss more. However as soon as he felt the blonde wizard's hand drift underneath his shirt finding it's way towards a nipple Harry pulled back.

"Stop. Please… I'm not…I'm not ready for this…not after what happened. I'm sorry, I really, really want this just, just not yet." Draco pulled back.

"I'll wait, Harry. But it's not going to get better if you don't talk about it." The smaller boy closed his eyes and one crystal tear slipped from the crease.

"Thank-you."

One week later.

Harry and Draco were in their common room lying on the couch. Well at least Draco was on the couch, while Harry was draped over him.

"Harry, love, what's wrong? You've been acting paranoid the last three days, always looking over your shoulder.

"Sorry, Draco. I don't know why but all last week every time I step out of our dorm, or when I'm passing class I feel like somebody is watching me. I guess it's finally taking its toll. The elder boy lifted his head and pressed his lips to Harry's temple.

"I'm sure it's nothing love."

"It probably is nothing." Harry agreed. "Can we go to the Great Hall? I'm starving!" Draco chuckled and waited for the smaller boy to get up.

Since Harry no longer felt welcome at the Gryffindor table due to Ron and Hermione, he now sat with Draco at the Slytherin table. Although he wasn't exactly welcome there since he was the bloody Boy-Who-Lived. Apparently, Draco and his father decided that the younger Malfoy wouldn't be becoming a Death Eater, so he wasn't all that welcome either. However, Draco still received the Slytherin Prince and Malfoy respect. So that's where they were as the evening post came in. A letter brought from an unfamiliar screech owl landed in front of Harry.

"Harry?" Draco questioned. The raven-haired boy shrugged his shoulders and proceeded to open the envelope. Taking out a letter, Harry read:

-Tell Draco goodbye, Harry

Harry immediately looked over to the blonde wizard before he felt a tug on his navel. Attempting to drop the letter/portkey before it took him Harry noticed his hand was stuck to it. He only had enough time to yell out portkey before Harry fell into complete darkness. Smacking his head on the cold stone floor of where ever he was before blacking out completely.
