Chapter 10:
Draco woke up to a feeling of Happiness tingling around his body. He hadn't felt this good in a very long time, and all he wanted to do was stay there so he could always feel this way. Shaking his head, to keep his eyes closed, he couldn't think why he felt this way.
"Draco?" He heard someone say his name and then felt a soft touch to his arm. It sent more of those tingles around his body and he shot up in the bed, snapping his eyes open, and looked around.
His eyes landed on Harry, sitting in a chair next to his bed, hand now resting on the sheets. Draco's eyes widened at seeing his mate sitting there as if he had been crying. Harry's eyes were puffed and red and his head hung down in shame. Draco hated seeing his mate looking like this and couldn't help but place his hand under the others chin and lift his face to look at him.
"Harry?" He questioned when those red eyes looked into his.
"I saw Severus' memories, all of them. All the way back from when he was a student. I even saw us as kids, we were so happy. I saw my self crying for you after I was taken, not my dad, you. Seeing the memories brought back the pain I felt from being away from you for so long. Then he showed me memories of Dumbledore and him talking about me. How Dumbledore set up me being friends with Ron and making sure I didn't know anything of my real past. He never figured out I wasn't James' kid.
Please forgive me for turning you away all these years. I want to start over and see what happens. I have felt the pull towards you all year but just didn't want to accept it, I'm sorry for putting you in so much pain." Harry was crying now, holding Draco's hand.
"None of this is really your fault Harry. Dumbledore wanted you blind to everything and I just wish I knew sooner. First we have to see Dumbledore sent away fro life for everything he has done then we can work on us." Draco couldn't fight the sudden urge to kiss Harry so he did.
He slowly leaned forward and placed his lips, cautiously upon Harry's. He felt extreme happiness when the other boy responded in kind. It quickly turned passionate as Draco placed a hand behind Harry's head, and pulled him closer to the bed. They broke away a couple moments later, Draco wishing they could have stayed like that all day.
"I'm sorry. My wolf side needed to know that you were not rejecting me." Draco stated as he ducked his head feeling the blush crawl up his face.
"I understand. I'm sorry that will never happen again. Now that I know everything I don't want to reject this." Harry smiled.
The sound of the door opening sprang the boys apart, Draco laying back on the pillows and Harry sitting back in his chair. Severus came around the curtain containing Draco's bed with a smile on his face. Draco was happy to see his Uncle like this, and hoped it would last.
"Hello boys. Just to let you know, I have just been informed, Dumbledore's trial is set for tomorrow. If everything goes according to plan, he will be sent away for life." Severus' smile broadened.
"I sure hope so. He has messed with all of our lives long enough." Harry stated.
"Harry, I know this is a lot to ask, but I was hoping you would revert to you given name now that you know everything." Severus asked, hope shining in his eyes.
"Sirius asked me if I wanted to change my last name to his." Harry stated. Draco saw the defeated look cross his Uncles face before Harry's started to talk again. "But, I told him no. I was hoping you would ask. So yes I'll take your last name like it was supposed to be." Harry smiled.
Severus embraced Harry in a hug and placed a kiss atop his head. Draco was so happy for the two of them and wondered what his last name would be changed to. He loved Lucius and Narcissa for raising him but he wasn't, and didn't want to be a Malfoy any longer.
"Well I'll leave you two alone." Severus smiled at Draco before he left the room.
"Congrats Harry Snape." Draco laughed a little at the name.
"Hey maybe one day it will be Malfoy." Harry joked but stopped laughing the moment he saw Draco's face. "What's wrong?" He asked.
"I don't want to be a Malfoy. I don't understand why my fathers haven't asked about a name change yet. I've known longer than you about them and still nothing." Draco felt lost. Harry wrapped Draco into his arms and looked into his eyes.
"They love you. There has been a lot going on and maybe they will do it soon."
"I hope so."
"Well Mr. Malfoy you may leave now. Rest you two have a long day tomorrow with the trial I hear." Madam Pomfrey stated as she came around the curtain. Draco smiled and jumped out of the bed, grabbing Harry's hand before running out the door.
The two of them encountered a group of students down in the Great Hall and Draco quickly let go of Harry's hand when he saw Ron in the middle. Harry looked at him before it dawned on him why he did it.
"Hey Harry, what are you doing with him?" Ron shouted as he walked out of the group, now standing in front of the two boys.
"We're friends now." Harry smiled. Draco was shocked that Harry said this.
"What. Are you insane?" Ron bellowed.
"NO. There is a lot of things you don't know, but will become public knowledge tomorrow. Unless you do know, from what I hear Dumbledore set it up for us to be friends. Made it so you could turn me away from Draco and my Father." Harry spat out.
"Father what are you talking about. No one even knew James was alive until he showed up here." Ron said looking as if he was just caught with his hand in the cookie jar.
"Right. Well we will find out tomorrow won't we. I'm sure Dumbledore will spill everything." Harry turned around and grabbed Draco's hand again, leading him away from the group.
"I hope the trial proves worthwhile tomorrow." Harry said as Draco looked over at him.
"Me too, me too." Draco was nervous about tomorrow. He wanted to be there but he was scared things wouldn't turn out for the best. He didn't want to loose his family or Harry now that he had him, somewhat to himself. His wolf side was happy, making him want to jump the boy walking beside him, but he held it down for fear of scaring him away.
He just hoped he could mate with him soon, knowing he needed to do it to solidify him as his mate. Then his wolf wouldn't be so determined to mate every second. Draco smiled at the thought, no that he would mind to mate all the time with Harry, oh no he would take every opportunity to have his way with him.
