When Harry awoke the first thing he noticed was Draco kneeling by his mattress with his head on his arms fast asleep. The second thing that penetrated the fog his brain seemed to have become were hushed voices coming from the kitchen area. As he turned his head very carefully so he could face the people the voices belonged to he saw the restaurant owner who was also his land lady and Hermione leaning on the counters and talking quietly while Hermione also stirred something in a simmering pot. As no one had noticed he was awake yet Harry decided that his lover was in a very uncomfortable position. He slowly moved his hand, as if through water, to rest on one of Draco's arms. When he got no response from the touch Harry shook gently and was pleased when the head lifted up and grey eyes blinked sleep away dazedly. When Draco finally looked at the hand on his arm and traced it back to it's owner he threw himself on the mattress, careful not to actually hit Harry himself, and hugged him fiercely yet gently, as if afraid he might break. A startled "Harry!" later found Hermione on the bed hugging what bits of Harry she could get to through Draco and crying tears of joy. Harry was surprised to note that Hermione wasn't the only one crying. He brought his hand to his lover's cheek and gently wiped away the crystalline tears.

"What happened?" Harry found his voice scratchy and his throat raw. Hermione immediately got up to the kitchen and began filling a cup with whatever she had been stirring and forcing him to swallow it.

"How much do you remember?" Draco still held Harry carefully but the tears had stopped.

"I remember being sick, and then you asking me to open the door. That's when things got a little fuzzy and then I remember hearing you and Loreen and then- I guess it was you-catching me before I hit the bathroom floor. What happened after? For you guys to be so worked up I'm guessing I did more then just pass out."

"Well, not really. That's the problem. When you wouldn't open the door I started calling you and I guess I got pretty loud because your boss Loreen, heard me and asked me what was the matter. When I told her that you were in there and something was wrong and that you wouldn't open the door she unlocked it for me. I just managed to get to you before you gave yourself one hell of a bump on the head. We tried to wake you up for a while but we couldn't get any response from you and when we finally got your pulse it was so weak I was tempted to take you to the muggle hospital just because it was closest! Ugggg, you are determined to afford me as much worry as is humanly possible aren't you?" Draco's shoulder's slumped slightly and he stopped talking. When he did not continue and only let Harry rub his back Hermione took up the tale.

"You see Harry. They - that is too say Loreen and Malfoy- didn't even know if it was safe to move you so Malfoy sent Zambini to Grimmauld to get Snape if he was there since he's a strong healer or if he wasn't to be found to go to Hogwarts and get Madame Pomphrey! Naturally, everyone was at headquarters and when Zambini came everyone immediately began questioning him. Of course, by then we knew he had found you, but he cut us all off and asked for Snape. When he was told Snape was at Malfoy manner he said that there wasn't enough time and that you needed help right then. Since Snape has been tutoring me all summer on healing "practices" I came until someone could actually get in touch with Snape. I only had time to determine it was safe to move you and get you to your room when Snape came in like a hurricane kicking us all out. By the time he let us back in the room he had "made" you go to sleep and would only talk to Malfoy." Harry was confused at the fact that Hermione was purposefully not saying anything about flooing or potions until Loreen bumped into a cabinet with a soft curse and he remembered that she was indeed in the room. Well, at least I know why Hermione's here but why would Snape only talk to Draco? It seemed Draco was convinced Harry wasn't going to fade away as he now let him go and took up the story once more.

"Basically, he told me that you would be fine and that everything had just caught up to you."

"Then why did he want to talk to you privately? And why were you guys so worried if he said I would be fine?"

"Well, we weren't at first. But after the stuff Professor Snape gave you to sleep had long worn off and you still didn't show any signs of waking we got worried again. Then you started breathing really shallowly and I was just off to get Professor Snape out of bed if need be when you were sleeping normally again so we decided to wait a little while to see of you would wake up. You woke about two hours after all this. And I said everything Harry. That includes all the things we've been talking about lately." Harry was so surprised that before his brain registered his actions his arms were wrapped around his stomach

"Snape knows?"

"Yes, Harry, And I would like to point out that he discussed it only with me and not in front of everyone else. Just because you don't like him doesn't mean he isn't decent." Harry stuck his tongue out at the Slytherin only to turn to Hermione a second later as she donned her I'm-gathering-information-for-a-reserach-paper-tone.

"What is it that caught up with you Harry? When Snape had to leave he only told me what, ummmm, medicines, to keep you on, not why and Malfoy won't say. He says it isn't just his choice to tell us and that it really isn't his at all." Harry's eyes locked on the young spy's and he felt gratitude radiate from himself.

"Actually Hermione, I think I'll wait a bit to tell you. You know, tell everyone at once. That way it isn't as hard."

"All right Harry, but when that time comes you better spill every little detail. As for now I want you to get down as much of this pepper up "tea" as you can.

After everyone had gone either to bed, or to eat, the night found Harry and Draco lying down side by side, blissfully alone.

"Draco?"

"Yes, Harry?"

"Now that everyone's gone will you tell me what Snape said. I mean, the baby is okay right?"

"Yes, love, the baby is all right. Weak, but fine and as soon as you start eating properly and taking care of yourself you'll be fine too. Like I said, everything caught up to you. The lack of sustenance, the constant mental strain, the lack of sleep, the cutting." At Harry's shocked look Draco shrugged. "Just because you didn't loose a lot of blood doesn't mean you didn't loose anything. The blood loss each time, although not enough to affect you at one go, when accumulated was quite a bit. Because of the child and the weakness of your body your body itself was just slow to respond, being kept from exhaustion by your magic. If you were simply a muggle this would have happened to you a lot sooner and probably have been even more serious. It was your magic that saved you so for once, I'm glad you're stronger then me."

"I know this doesn't make it better or anything but I want you to know I truly am sorry for worrying you so much."

"It's all right. I mean yeah, I could strangle you but at the same time I'm just happy you're okay." After he spoke Draco couldn't surpress a wide yawn that escaped him.

"Draco, I want you to go get some food with the others and then get some rest. You need to get yourself healthy again too."

"All right, all right. But sleep okay? You still need to rest some more."

"Okay, I will. I'm surprisingly tired, even after so much sleeping. I love you Draco." Draco was almost at the door now but he turned around to look fondly down at the Gryffindor.

"I love you too Harry."
