Harry woke up a couple of hours later and noticed that the sun was starting to set behind the mountains. He could feel something wrapped around his body, he looked down and saw the blond boy still there fast asleep. He began to lightly rub the blond's back making sure not to touch any of the injuries. He could feel the boy's smooth skin under his finger tips. He felt the boy start to move and moment later he felt the boy tracing on his stomach and chest.

"How are you feeling?" Harry asked

"Better." Draco replied.

"Good." Harry said giving the blond slight hug.

"Can I ask you something Draco?" Harry said.

"What." The blond replied.

"What happened to you, how in the world did you get all of these cuts and bruises on you your body, and who in the hell did this to you?" The raven haired boy asked.

Harry could feel boy move uneasily in his arms, he could swear he felt the boy shake a little but wouldn't say anything because he did not want to damage the boy's pride.

"Could, could we by chance talk about this later." Draco stammered.

"Of course," Replied Harry.

The two boys laid there holding one another being caught up in the moment. After a few minutes Draco leaned back and looked up into Harry's green eyes.

"Umm… I kinda need to use the bathroom." The blond whispered.

"Ok." Harry replied sitting up.

Harry rose from the bed and walked over to the other side to help the blond. He pulled the covers back and helped the blond sit up. Draco wrapped his arm around Harry's neck and managed to stand up without hurting his ribs to much. Harry helped him walk out of the room and down the hall. He let the blond go in alone and closed the door. After a few minutes the blond reappeared.

"Fell better." Harry asked.

"Tons." Replied the blond smirking.

"So what's for dinner?" Draco asked.

"Dunno." Harry replied. "But let's go down and see."

A horrified look spread across Draco's face.

"Go down there." Draco said.

"Yea." Harry replied.

"But they don't even like me." Draco stated.

"If they really didn't like you, do you think you would really even be here right now?" Harry asked.

"I guess not." Draco replied.

"Don't worry; I'll be there with you the whole time ok." Harry said reassuringly rubbing the blond on the back.

Draco looked up at him and gave him a faint smile. The two headed for the stairs. Draco tried to walk down but winced in pain when he moved his chest to much. The blond could feel Harry grabbing one of his arm and wrapping it around his neck.

"Just in case you decide to fall." Said Harry grinning.

"Excuse me, but Malfoys do not fall." The blond firmly stated.

"Of course they don't." Agreed Harry trying not to laugh.

When they reached the bottom landing they headed toward the kitchen. When they entered the room grew quickly silent as they stared at the two boys.

"Hello dears." Said Mrs. Weasley.

"We were just wondering if dinner was ready?" asked Harry.

"You two slept through, I had Hermione go and get you two but she said that the both of you look so comfortable she didn't want to wake you." Replied Mrs. Weasley

Both of the boys started furiously blushing. They tried not to make eye contact to anyone in the room; they just stood there close together and grew more uncomfortable by the minute.

"Well, you two head back up to your room and I'll bring something up in few minutes ok." Mrs. Weasley said.

"Ok." Both boys replied.

They both started to head out the door when Ron called Harry's name. Draco walked out and waited for Harry outside the kitchen.

"What are you doing mate?" Ron asked.

"What do you mean?" Harry said

"Going back up to the room with Malfoy! why don't we just throw him out on his ass. I don't understand what is going on between the two of you." Ron stated.

Draco was starting to get pissed as he heard the dirty little Weasel talking about him; he was about to storm through the door and put the little pest in his place but stopped when he heard Harry start talking.

"Listen. I've already told you this once Ron, I need Draco, he is what completes me. But you obliviously didn't believe me when I told you and Hermione. Now if you want him to leave fine, but know that if he leaves I'm going with him." Harry said.

Draco could feel his stomach start doing back flips. 'Did he just admit that he needs me' he said to himself.

Harry looked around the Kitchen and the only person who was not shocked by what he had said was Hermione who was smiling at him for confessing his feelings.

"But he's a Malfoy." Yelled Ron.

Mrs. Weasley shot him a 'you had better shut the hell up look', but Ron didn't notice it.

"What is it with you and Damn names?" Harry yelled. "You know, if you only took the time to actually get to know him, you would see that there is more of a person to him. Draco has feelings, dreams and desires. But you're too much of a damn prat to even notice. And why cant you be happy and understand that I really want to be with him. I don't go around and get all pissed about you and Hermione going out do I. No I don't. You know, even Hermione has gone out of her way and got to know him a little better, but you obviously are to stuck in your little perfect world to care what others want."

Harry stared at the Ron who's mouth was open in shock from him yelling at him. He then turned around and headed out the door and found a smirking blond waiting for him. Whey they started up the stairs they could hear Hermione and Mrs. Weasley going off on Ron. They went back into their room and laid back down on the bed. After a few minutes they heard a light knock on the door. The door opened and Mrs. Weasley came in carrying a plate of sandwiches and two glasses of milk.

"Here you are dears." She said as she put the plate on the table by the bed. "And how are you feeling Draco."

"A lot better." Draco replied.

Mrs. Weasley walked over to Draco. "If you don't mind I would like to check you wounds" She said.

Draco gave her a nod and she lightly grabbed the edge of the bandage and pulled it sideways. She looked at the now closed wound.

"The cuts are healing nicely, but the bruises will take some time until they are fully healed." She said. " I don't think there will be any scarring." She added.

Draco let out a sigh of relief at this last bit of news

"Harry, you wont forget to re bandage him will you? She asked.

"Don't worry I wont forget." Harry replied.

She gave both boys a soft smile and walked out of the room.

After the two boys had finished eating Harry stood up and walked to the other side of the bed where Draco was sitting.

"Lets do those bandages." Harry said.

"Ok." The blond replied.

Harry started to carefully take off the bandages revealing the blond's still slightly damaged body. Harry gently traced a few of the cuts making the blond shudder from the light touch.

"I can't believe someone could have done this." Harry mumbled.

After he was finished bandaging the blond back up he looked deep into his silvery eyes.

"Could you tell me what happened now?" Harry gently asked.

The blond shuddered and nodded. "But only in the darkness." The blond whispered.

"Why the darkness?" asked Harry

"Because, then it doesn't seem so real." Draco replied.

Harry stood up taking out his wand and waving it at the windows, the curtains closed leaving the room into total darkness.

"Lumos" Harry muttered and the end of his wand ignited into a light.

He then walked over to the other side of the bed and sat down. He wrapped his arms around the blond and pulled him into his chest. He put out his wand and sat there with the blond in his chest, he could feel the blond's breath blowing across his skin. He felt the blond sigh.

"I guess you could say it began at the end of last year." Draco said. "After the battle broke out at school, a few other students and I were trying to stop the death eaters from attacking the younger students. We were doing ok holding them off but they just kept coming. There were a few of your DA members helping us but we were not match up against those numbers, hell we couldn't fend them off and we had Professor Snape helping us along with Professor Flitwick with us. After we had managed to get the under class out harms way we started out retreat back. That's when we managed to bump into your group in the dungeons Remember."

"Yea, I was going to tell you how I felt that day. But when I was on my way to find you the battle broke out. I was relieved to see you then." Harry said.

"Well after that we managed our way to the Great Hall, that's when things really started to go to hell. We found another group of DA members trying to fend off more death eaters. They had already suffered loses in their group. Madame Pomfrey was throwing curses and hexes left and right. But that's when my father showed up. I saw him kill that Ernie kid with the Avada Kedavra curse. Oh you should have seen Pomfrey then; I didn't know she had it in her. She managed to round up a few of the students and retreat. Snape and Flitwick were both hit with multiple stunning spells and so were a few people in my group. That's when Voldemort decided to show up."

"That's why my scar hurt so badly." Harry mumbled

"That's when he captured Blaine, Pansy and I." Draco said. "Once he had got what he came for he started to call back the attack."

"So that's why they were retreating." Harry whispered. Draco to in a deep breath and Harry pulled him closer into his embrace.

"I had no idea where we were where they had taken us, but I knew it wasn't good. They wanted the three of us to take the Dark Mark. Pansy and Blaine said that they would but I refused to do it. My father told me that I was a disgrace to the Malfoy name since I didn't want the mark but Voldemort said he had way to making people change their mind. They tortured me hours on end each day, for hours on end they would put me under the Cruciatus Curse." Draco whispered.

"But so long under that could drive you insane." Harry said.

"Yea, unless you really have something that you can focus your mind to hold onto." Draco said looking up at Harry.

"Oh." Harry whispered.

"The only thing I thought about was you, somehow that kept me from going insane from the excoriating pain driving through my body." Draco said laying his head down on Harry's chest. "But one day after they were finished torturing me I felt someone unlocking the chains, it took me a few minutes to become coherent but I came around. When I did, I found my mom trying to help me escape. She had obliviously took out the two guard watching me with ease because I saw no injuries on her. Well we managed to make it out, which I have no idea how because how many injuries I had. When we made it outside a few of the Death Eaters were following us, my father was among them. Before we had dissaparated my father told her if she took me then her life would be forfeit. She didn't care because the next thing I knew is my head was spinning into oblivion. When I woke up again she was standing over me with a black cloak. She told me that I had to leave before they tracked us, she didn't want to take me all the way just incase they had so I had to finish walking here. She gave me a potion for pain but it didn't last to long considering the condition I was in. I took the cloak from here and she told me how to get here. She then hugged me and kissed me good bye and said she loved me before she left so that they would follow her." Draco muttered.

Harry could fell something drip onto his arm. "But how did she know where to come?" He asked

"Because she I told her about me liking you, and I guess she knew that you were here somehow so she brought me here to you." Draco stammered.

"I'm so sorry Draco." Harry said kissing his head. "But at least you're here with me now."

Tears started to run down Draco's face and Harry could hear the blond start to cry.

"I don't think I'll ever get to see her again." The blond whispered

Harry held onto the blond and felt his heart break for him. He could feel Draco crying in his chest and wrap his arms around his waist.

"I promise you Draco, I will never leave you again." Harry whispered

Harry sat there and held the blond rubbing circles in his back trying to comfort him. After awhile Draco began to fall into a fitful sleep. Harry sat there thinking to himself as he to felt sleep taking over. He kissed the blond on the head and whispered to him.

"I know it's not going to be easy, and I have a feeling that this is far from over. But as long as I'm breathing I'll be there by your side to help you fight through this."
