Chapter 17

"Come on then lets get that letter written" said Neville, he hoped that Draco was still within reach otherwise it will take ages to find him.

Draco,

We found Harry, where are you?

Moon & Bottom

"Well here goes nothing" said Luna giving the letter to her owl who had followed them there.

"I hope he's ok" said Neville, he had tried to talk Draco out of leaving but he had been unable to. He thought he had once until he found him gone, a letter left behind for them. Now they were lucky if Draco kept in touch with them four times a year.

"He's fine...he has to be" said Luna biting her lip.

"Yeah" sighed Neville.

Luna noticed Neville was beginning to sweat, she forced him to go to bed not taking no for an answer. She only managed as she promised to wake him up if anything came from Draco. The other vampire brought potions for Neville to drink when he woke up and stood outside the door. Still as a statue if you didn't know they were vampires you would actually think they were statues.

"Thank you" said Luna softly.

"You going to be ok?" asked Harry getting worried about them.

"We will be fine" said George.

"So stop worrying" demanded Fred hugging Harry who he thought of as a little brother. George hugged him next; the Portkey was safely around George's neck and they apparated out. They were finally getting some proper action and they felt the thrill of doing something wrong just like they had in school. The mischievous looks were back in their eyes the old twins were back and ready to get the show on the road.

"Bye" said Harry to an empty room.

"Don't worry about them, if anything happens we will get them back" soothed Severus when Harry came back into the room they had been using. Harry calmed down at that, he knew Severus would do anything for him and wouldn't let the twins get hurt.

"Sorry" grinned Harry trying to be more positive.

"That's better" smirked Severus swooping in and kissing his lover senseless only drawing back when Harry was weak in the knees. Even then Harry didn't let go of Severus just kissed him back just as passionately.

Severus couldn't be more proud of Harry he was becoming more confident as the days wore on. He loved his proud confident Harry; he would do anything to see him fully confident. Sighing softly as his lover snuggled into him his eyes closed no doubt thinking of everything.

"I never thought I'd be like this...have this" admitted Harry from his place snuggled up in the crook of Severus' neck.

"Well you have," said Severus tightening his hold on the teen "And I'm never letting you go...EVER."

Severus was nearly blown off his feet by the emotions he felt coming from his chide. So much happiness and excitement coming thought the bond, smiling softly he ran his hand down his lovers cheek feeling blessed at having such a beautiful and powerful young man at his side.

He was so glad that they had decided to go to Privet Drive, the most hilarious thing about it was it had been a last minute decision and they hadn't went where they had planned on going.

They say things happen for a reason, only now did Severus actually begin to believe it. It hadn't been a coincidence that they had gone there, he knew that now he was supposed to save this teen help him and make him his. That's what Harry was now, his everything.

"Love you" whispered Harry completely still as if he was judging how Severus was going to react to his statement.

Harry wasnt disappointed, all Severus did was lower his mouth to his lover's ear and say the exact same back. Months ago Severus would never have considered saying that to anyone, Harry wasnt the only one that had changed in those past few months. Severus had as well.

"There's Sera back!" gasped Luna, an unusual name for her owl just like everything else.

Neville stirred but did not wake up, Luna hoped to god that it wasnt coming back unopened. She prayed to Merlin that Draco wrote back.

Her fears were unfound but slowly turned to dread his location was written in blood. Not only in blood but it looked like he had used his finger, worry overtook her senses and she woke Neville up and handed him the letter nearly in tears. Neville alarmed took the letter and the colour that had just been brought back was gone he looked white and sick all over again.

"Is everything alright?" asked the vampire coming in he could feel their fear miles away.

"We know where Draco is" said Luna, handing the letter over that said the three of them apparated away. They found Draco lying in the snow unconscious, gasping in shock the blood was coming from his nose and mouth. Grabbing him they apparated away again and quickly called on Andrea.

As soon as she said his magic was disappearing the vampire was gone, no doubt down to Severus to see if he had any of that potion left.

"Sir the package you wanted has arrived do you have any of that potion you gave Neville Longbottom?" asked the vampire looking flushed.

"There is a batch of it on the cooling rack" said Severus looking worried.

"Package? What kind of package has a magic draining potion in it?" asked Harry looking curious.

"I...there is someone here...I don't want you to see him until he is better" said Severus.

Harry frowned what on earth was Severus up to? There was nothing he could do about it just now not until Severus gave in and told him.

"Don't think on it" soothed Severus. He was rather curious about the state of this Draco boy.

Later on that night once Harry was asleep Severus went to see Draco in the other side of the castle. When he saw him, he wondered if Draco and Harry had been lovers, he could see why they would be after all the boy was the opposite of him. He had to ask before he let Draco back into Harry's life because if it came to it he would have Draco leaving. He felt terrible about it but Harry was his now and he wasn't about to loose him to a teenager.

He went to see Luna and Neville; he could sense they were still awake.

"Come in" said a soft voice.

"I need to ask you a question" said Severus curtly as always.

"What?" asked Luna her head cocked to the side.

"Were Draco and Harry....going out?" asked Severus. He couldn't bring himself to say lovers out loud.

"No, Draco though of Harry as a brother, eventually Harry felt the same saving someone did that I suppose. Draco is 100% straight so there is not the slightest chance of that even happening" said Luna softly. She knew there and then that Severus really loved her friend; she smiled as Severus nodded his head curtly and left.

"I didn't expect that" admitted Neville his eyes still closed.

"He really loves him" said Luna her eyes were twinkling.

"Yes, you could tell by the way he was looking at him" grinned Neville "Now please try and get some sleep!"

"Alright, alright" said Luna laying her head next to Neville's who then wrapped his arm around her and brought her closer. Together they fell asleep feeling better than they remembered in a long time. They were almost back together again, their group and when it was they would get revenge on Dumbledore. There was a storm brewing and Dumbledore had better watch out because he was about to be in the centre of it.

"This is the file room" said George.

"Come on then" said Fred. They got in just in time as a ministry official just turned the corner as the room door closed. Thankfully they had shut it with a soft click and no one had heard it.

"Let's get those files" grim looks on the twins faces.
