Chapter 15- Draco's haunted eyes, Severus and Remus grow closer

"Lucky the ground was so soft."

"I thought he was dead for sure."

"But he didn't even break his glasses."

Harry could hear the voices whispering, but they made no sense whatsoever. He didn't have a clue where he was, or how he'd got there, or what he'd been doing before he got there. All he knew was that every inch of him was aching as though it had been beaten, his head ached…

"That was the scariest thing I've ever seen in my life."

Harry's eyes snapped open. He was lying in his bed in papa Sev's rooms. The Gryffindor Quidditch team, spattered with mud from head to foot, were outside his open door in the living room. Blaisé and Hermione were also there, looking as though they'd just climbed out of a swimming pool.

"Harry!" Fred said, who looked extremely white underneath, the mud. "How're you feeling?"

It was as though Harry's memory was on fast forward. The lightning… Sirius… the Snitch… he was sure something hit him "What happened?" he asked moaning softly.

"You fell off," George whispered clutching Fred's hand. "Must've been what fifty feet? We thought we'd lost you."

"We thought you'd died," Alicia said , who was shaking.

Hermione made a small, squeaky noise. Her eyes were extremely bloodshot.

"But the match," Harry whispered. "What happened? Are we doing a replay?"

No one said anything.

The horrible truth sank into Harry like a stone, he'd failed. "We didn't lose?"

"Diggory got the Snitch," said George. "Just after you fell. He didn't realize what had happened. When he looked back and saw you on the ground, he tried to call it off. Wanted a rematch. But they won fair and square… even Oliver admitted it."

"Where is Oliver?" said Harry, suddenly realizing he wasn't there.

"Probably still in the showers," said Fred. "We think he's trying to drown himself, Percy went in after in him."

Harry turned his head slightly whimpering, "Where's Draco?" what he saw frightened him, Draco was pale…so pale…he could hardly hear him breathe. His eyes filled with tears, "What happened to Draco?" he couldn't really move, his entire body was sore…

Hermione had gone to get Severus and Remus.

Blaisé's eye filled with tears, "He…he saw you fall… I can't understand it. He saw you fall and just froze. He was in shock, he tried to warn you about the Bludger but I don't think you heard him over the storm. I don't understand why he didn't try to save you. He just fainted as you came hurling towards the ground. We couldn't wake him…"

Severus came in and took Harry's hand. 'Harry…you're awake…I didn't know when you would wake."

Remus rest his hand on his boyfriend's shoulder, "You gave us quite the scare, I managed to slow you down a little but you broke a lot of bones.

Fred sighed, "Sorry about the Bludger…we couldn't see them well enough.

"Oh well there had to be one time you didn't catch the snitch said George.

"It's not over yet," said Fred. "but we lost by a hundred points."

"Right? So if Hufflepuff loses to Ravenclaw and we beat Ravenclaw and Slytherin…"

"Hufflepuff'll have to lose by at least two hundred points," said George.

"But if they beat Ravenclaw…"

"No way, Ravenclaw is too good. But if Slytherin loses against Hufflepuff…"

"It all depends on the points — a margin of a hundred either way —"

Harry lay there, not saying a word. They had lost… for the first time ever, he had lost a Quidditch match.

After ten minutes or so, Severus sighed, "He needs rest and you need to clean up yourself. You tracked mud and water all over my rooms.

"We'll come and see you later," Fred told him. "Don't beat yourself up Harry, you're still the best Seeker we've ever had."

The team trooped out, trailing mud behind them.

Remus escorted them to the door watching it shut behind them, looking worried before returning to Severus' side..

Blaisé and Hermione moved nearer to Harry's bed.

"Remus practically saved you, managing to slow you down a little and then he magicked you onto a stretcher," Blaisé attempted to distract Harry from Draco's still form. "And walked up to school with you floating on it. Everyone thought you were…"

His voice faded, but Harry hardly noticed. He was thinking about Draco, why his best friend fainted and why seeing him like this squeezed the air out of his lungs. He wanted to move, to hold Draco, to feel him breathe and know he was okay.

Severus was sobbing softly while Remus held him; the fall had shaken his papa to the core.

"Papa can hold me if he wants."

"Shouldn't….you're still healing." Severus choked on a sob.

Harry asked softly, 'How soon can I move papa?"

"You've been unconscious for two hours Harry, I made you drink a healing potion. I didn't trust myself to cast healing charms on you, seeing you fall like that…I thought I lost you." Sever said quietly, "I shouldn't have let you fly today…it was too dangerous."

Harry smiled sadly, "I wanted to fly, I thought I could handle it. I didn't think it would be that scary." he turned towards Draco, 'Draco," he whispered, "It's Adder…I'm alright. Please wake up. You're scaring me…" not realizing he was nearly echoing his best friend's words from when he had fainted himself on the train.

Draco woke slowly, his breathing becoming more normal and less shallow, "Adder…" he woke because Harry needed him, his little snake was alive, he hadn't failed him. Remus was right, he loved Harry. Not as a friend or a brother, he loved Harry the way Remus loved Uncle Sev.

Harry could feel his bones mending and it hurt some, "Draco, please…hold me…" he couldn't move yet but he needed to feel Draco close.

Severus looked up, "Be gentle with him, most of his bones smashed."

Remus kissed his neck, 'Hush now, Draco will be."

Draco scooted closed, snuggled, "You're safe, I was so scared. I'm sorry I didn't try to save you. I was terrified I'd lose you Harry, I love you."

"I know you love me.' Harry said simply.

"No. Adder, you don't understand. I love you, the way Remus loves Uncle Sev, the way Oliver loves Percy." his eyes were filled with pain and fear, as he cupped Harry's face in her hands, "I saw you falling get hit by the Bludger and knocked off your Nimbus by the thunder and the wind. I was too afraid to move…I am sorry. I failed you. I wanted to save you, I didn't know what to do, how to save you. All I could see was the boy I love, falling and possibly dying. I can't lose you, Adder." Draco's heart was in his throat, "I'm becoming a better person because I have you."

Harry's eyes filled with tears, "You love me? You were scared of losing me? Don't you know you're the person I love most besides papa?" He wanted to move but he hurt so much that he was scared to try and Papa Sev hadn't said when he could move.

Draco blushed, lightly covering Harry's lips with his own, "I'll try harder to protect you. I love you and I can't lose you."

"I want to be stronger, because I don't want you worry so much. Hold me. Stay please." Harry's heartbeat was fast and excited, he needed to feel the comfort of Draco's embrace.

'Of course Adder." Draco's arm gently rest on Harry's chest, "I'll protect you. I'll stay with you."

Neither noticed the teachers leaving.

XoooooX

Remus led Severus from the room, "Remember your promise? That I could stay? I don't think you want to be alone right now." he lifted his boyfriend's chin and kissed him gently.

Severus's eyes still shimmered with tears, "We could have lost him. I could have lost my son….Lily's son. I love him so much."

"And I love you, so much. I'd do anything for you. I'll protect you and your son. I need you to be happy."

Severus clung to Remus, "Stay please. You're right, I don't want to be alone. I still want you to stay and hold me. I think I love you too…at least I think I do."

Remus held him close, nearly carrying the man he loved, "I'll stay with you, holding you close is what I want. Knowing you care about me enough to trust me in your bed means a lot."

Severus blushed, "Though I normally sleep without the glamour, it's less straining."

"Your clothes are still wet. It can't be healthy, I want you well, I need you to be well. I love you. Let me care for you."

Severus nodded, "A bath would be nice." his face was red with embarrassment.

Remus kissed his cheek, "Will you trust me?"

Severus blushed, "Yes."

"Then turn off the glamour and undress while I run a bath, tepid water right? Too hot or too cold would hurt you would it not?'

Severus nodded, "My body has always been sensitive."

Remus whispered in his ear, "Then when you're ready, it shouldn't be that hard to give you pleasure. I want you to be ready, to want it, I could never hurt you. Let me care for you, Sevy. I need to."

"I trust you. You know I do." Severus let the glamour shimmer away and undressed. He watched Remus turn to ready the bath, he did trust the werewolf. Remus had saved his son twice, once from Dementors and again today. No one had ever looked at him the way Remus did, the Head of Gryffindor was offering him his heart. He sensed no dishonesty or ill intent, Remus had stood up to his old friend Sirius Black, one of his old tormentors and told Black to leave him alone. Remus had called him his lover, they hadn't even kissed until after that. He had barely promised to give the man a chance, Severus remembered the tenderness of Remus' kisses and the gentleness of his touch. .

Remus returned, holding out his hand, as he tried not to look beyond his lover's face. He didn't want to make Severus uncomfortable.

Severus felt his broken and scared body flush, "Are you…going to…"

"I'm only going to help you into the tub to warm up, while I get some clothes for you to wear. I should have insisted you change…" telling Severus to change then would be like telling Sirius to stop flirting with girls.

Severus bit his lip, "Alright…"

"You aren't ready for me to sit in a bath with you and I can't promise if I was in the bathtub with you that I could keep my promise. I want to always keep my promises to you.' Remus said kissing his cheek.

Severus smiled, "I'm still nervous about being in a relationship, but you make me feel safe. Haven't felt that feeling very often." he added quietly.

"I like making you feel safe." Remus said brushing his lover's hair with his lips as he set him in the bath, he sat beside the tub taking Severus' hand and bringing it to his lips. "I don't want to think about anyone hurting you again."

Severus closed his eyes, "At least I don't think Black would try."

"I won't let Sirius hurt you again. You've been through enough suffering, I want you to feel safe and loved. I want to be a true part of your family with Harry one day. He can be our cub, our little one to love and protect. Draco is finally accepting his feelings and in time Harry will realize he returns those feelings. I wish to help you build a future and a home." He kissed Severus, "What do you wear to bed…"

Severus listened to Remus' words, his heart racing as he thought about what his boyfriend said. He said quietly, "I can only wear light weight fabrics…in the summer I can hardly stand any heat and try to wear as little as possible."

"So…" Remus tried not to comprehend that Severus admitted to sleeping naked, "I should find a night shirt?"

Severus blushed, "Yes…"

Remus put the wet clothes in the laundry basket for the house elves to clean and searched for a nightshirt as well as changing into dry clothes himself. Returning with the nightshirt, Remus retrieved a soft light towel and helped Severus up, letting the deputy headmaster up, kissing him lightly, " Will this do?"

Soon Severus was dressed and in bed, curled up with his head on Remus' chest. "Thank you, Remus."

Remus gently rest his hands on Severus' back, "Rest well Sevy and thank you for letting me stay. I love you."

They fell asleep together, the werewolf's body heat blending with Severus' and warming the cold broken man.
