Come on people, I need more suggestions for Kevin's mate.

Heartsick Kindred: Chapter 7

It was a while from Hogwarts to get to the Kindred home. Kevin gave Draco, Harry's cloak until they picked up his and then they headed there.

Draco looked questioningly at Kevin when they stopped over the middle of an ocean, with no land in sight. Kevin grinned and put a bubble around them. "Hold on!" The dragons did a nosedive.

They went through the water and kept going until, they went through another bubble and Kevin's disappeared as the dragon set into a slow spiral down to the ground.

Draco had this shocked look on his face and looked like he was going to kill Kevin. Kevin saw this and laughed, "What you didn't expect me to make this boring did you?"

They landed and Draco got shakily off, looking grateful to on solid ground. "Well, atleast when I have I won't have to deal with your sabotaging."

"Oh, come on you play Quidditch don't you? What's so different from this?"

"I have no control in this, so it's quite different." He glared at Kevin.

Kevin just shrugged, "Well, let's go get your dragon. Then, I'll show you Harry's, your place, and mine." He walked over to some pins. "Well, Alex go find 'em."

The dragon walked over to the pen of mates of the dragonrider's dragons. He waited 'till a keeper opened the door. Then, he went in and headed straight for a dragon and nuzzled them happily. Alex and the new dragon walked out and came over to Draco.

Kevin looked at Draco, "Well here she is."

Draco eyes were wide, "She's beautiful!" The dragon in being talked about was white, a shimmering white that changed colors like the inside of a clamshell when it's cleaned out. She was as long as Alexander, but other than that they seemed complete opposites.

{Thank you Draco. My name is Jennifer.}

{That's a beautiful name as well.}

Kevin watched the silent exchange and then, tapped Draco on the shoulder, and pointed to just below his own eye. "You need to move your tattoo here until you and Harry are bonded. You can move it when we leave, but put it there for the moment."

"How do you do that?"

"Concentrate on wanting the tattoo there."

He did so and felt something slither up from the middle of his back to under his left eye. Kevin nodded, then handed him a book. "This book is just like the ones Harry and I have. All you have to do is say the name of whatever you want to know about."

Then, Kevin led him to their rooms. His was on one side of Harry's and Kevin's was on the other side of Harry's. "My mate goes on my other side." He looked at the clock in his rooms. "We should probably get back by now. Harry's probably awake, and if he's not, then you need to be with him anyway as the pain is still there."

They reached Hogwarts, with Alex flying next to them. When they got there, they had all the dragons shrink. Since Draco couldn't pry them apart, he just put Alex and Jennifer in his pocket. None of the students yet knew about the dragons and they intended to keep it that way, until they were ready to show them in a class.

Draco and Kevin rushed to Harry's rooms and when they got there, it was worse then they thought. "I thought you said there was a week and a half before mating season?!"

Kevin looked at Harry, then back to Draco. "Different people progress at different rates, but he'll still have two and a half weeks (A/N: The week and a half to mating season, and the week after that.) before going into a coma, he'll just be like this or worse for longer. Then, he'll go into a go into depression for longer than normal, then he'll go into a coma. Now, you can help this right now by touching him, or you can make him suffer. Which is it?"

Draco didn't hesitate, "How should I do this?"

"Get on the bed and curl your body around his, this'll give the most contact. Wrap your arms around him."

Draco followed the instructions, and Harry slowly got out of his fetal position and stopped shivering. Draco was safe as long as he was asleep, and Kevin had left the room. Draco nuzzled his nose into Harry's hair, taking in the boy's unique smell, a mixture of sunlight, or atleast what he would assume it smelled like, rain, apples, and freshly cut grass. He snuggled closer and fell asleep.
This is how they were, when Harry woke up. He felt unaccustomed warmth next to him, he gently rolled over and was startled to see blond hair. 'Draco?'

The blond murmured pulled Harry closer, Harry grinned and let himself be cuddled, atleast there wasn't any pain anymore.

Kevin came in then, and grinned at the two, moving to where he could whisper to Harry. "We went to get Draco's dragon today."

"What's she like?"

"Beautiful."

"Why's he in here anyway?"

Kevin looked away.

Harry growled, "You told him didn't you? Damn it, he wasn't supposed to find out!" Lowers his voice, feeling Draco stir beside him.

"He has the right to know, he can't make a decisions without all the facts."

Harry glared, then finding no argument, just snarled, but it was hard to stay angry with his mate curled up against him

Kevin grinned knowing he had made his point. He saw Draco's eyes open and wondered how long he had been awake. 'Probably since Harry got angry.'

Draco, settled more firmly against Harry and whispered. "He's right and I'm glad he told me."

Harry jumped slightly and glared at Kevin for not telling him.

Kevin just grinned, "Who do you think is to thank for the oh so much less pain?"

Harry snorted, "Not you. It's this guy's behind me's. Who is it again?"

Draco poked him, "Hey! If it wasn't for what would happen, I would get up right now."

Harry started laughing, "That's a good threat."

Kevin waited 'till Harry wasn't paying attention and motioned to a spot for Draco to poke where Harry's ticklish.

Draco grinned evilly and poked Harry there, smirking when Harry helplessly tried to stop him. He didn't stop until Harry was begging for mercy. Then, he gave him one last poke for good measure.

Harry glared at Kevin, who looked innocent. "What?"

"You're the only one who knows about that spot! Nevermind the only here who would tell him."

Kevin laughed, "Well, I had to have some way to get you to stop nagging me and him. Besides, I think you don't really care that I did that anyway. You're just happy that he's doing that."

Harry smirked, "That maybe true, but that doesn't excuse it." Harry raised his hand to his chin, threateningly, "What should my revenge be?"

Kevin shook his head, "Uh-oh." He ran out.

Harry's eye's widened, "I know!" He whispered a spell. "One . . .two . . ." Just as Harry motioned to the way Kevin had gone, there was a groan. Draco looked questioningly at Harry, who simply smirked and said, "Wait for it . . ."

Kevin stormed into the room, he was about three inches tall and looked like a fairy. Draco and Harry started cracking up, meanwhile the little fairy man, started cursing at them in a very high pitched voice, which made Draco and Harry laugh even harder.

Harry, while laughing had unknowingly put himself face to face with Draco, they were now close enough to kiss. They both stopped laughing, almost holding their breaths, Draco and Harry both leaned in and then . . .Draco snarled, "No, damn it!" Then, Draco got up and rushed out, leaving Harry bent over gasping with pain and crying from something not related at all to do with the physical pain.

Since Harry wasn't able to concentrate on keeping the spell up, Kevin was able to change himself back and rush over to his friend and for mercy, he spelled the boy to sleep; that done, he stormed out and went after Draco.
By the time he found the boy, some of his anger had worn down, but not enough to protect Draco from a verbal attack. "Do you realize, that every time you accept and then reject him, it speeds up his deterioration? He's only got a week and a half before the coma overtakes him. Damn it Draco, he doesn't deserve to be played with like this! If you're going to accept him, then accept him. If you're not, then don't. But don't play with him! Don't give him that hope and then take it away! He's lost enough as it is! He's gone through more than any person should have to go through in his life. He's watched the people he loves slowly suffer and die. He's been abused by his Uncle's family, treated like dirt and a slave by them. He's been starved and beaten, but through this he's never given up, but you . . .you just might cause him to do it. You! Would that make you feel better? You all think he's lived this blessed life, but you wouldn't survive one day in his world." And with that Kevin stormed off, leaving a stunned Draco to take in what he had just said.
By the time Draco came back to their dorm, he was feeling lighter and lower at the same time. Lighter, because of the decision he had made. Lower, because of what it had taken him to make this decision. He walked into Harry's room, Harry was awake now. The pain had broken through it.

He walked over and touched his shoulder, the boy stopped shaking for a minute, but then Harry yanked his shoulder away from Draco. "Leave me alone. I don't want you near me anymore. You're free now, so leave." Harry curled up into a ball, his teeth chattering with the pain, until he gritted them to make them stop.

"Harry, look I'm sorry . . ."

"Leave! Now!"

Draco almost did, he got to the door, but then he turned around and walked back. He sank on the bed and when Harry turned around to yell at him, Draco grabbed his chin and kissed him. He used the fact Harry's mouth was open to rant to his best advantage and plundered Harry's mouth. He felt the resistance go out of the boy and felt him sink against him, sighing.

He pulled away and looked Harry in the eyes, "I'm not saying I love or anything, because I don't know. But I do feel something for you."
