Suddenly, muscular arms were enveloping the blonde in a warm, secure embrace. He was pulled back and up until he was being held and hugged, face nudged in a sweet smelling neck that was soon turned salty with Draco's tears, snot, and sobs.
"Shh, shh, shh," Harry cooed in a whisper.
Draco couldn't stop the tears. He held tightly to Harry's uniform jacket as waves wracked his body. The blonde was now being softly petted by a calloused hand. It smoothed back his fair hair and down his back, repeating the motion when he reached Draco's tailbone.
When Harry noticed Draco wasn't anywhere close to calming down he changed their positions, placing himself on the sofa as well and holding his highly upset lover on his lap.
"Draco, Draco, it's okay, love. It's okay," to which Draco shook his head and sobbed harder. Years of emotion were pouring out of him in a hot fiery blaze, all the victim could do was hold onto his anchor and hang on for the ride.
It took a half hour of crying, cooing, petting, and sweet nothings for Draco to calm down to hiccups.
"H-How d-dare you leave me, H-Harry….Potter…" his words were shaking, and in a soft stutter. "H-H-How d-daaare you."
Harry smiled softly and sighed, arms holding the man closer so their cheeks brushed softly. "I'm sorry, love. I'm so sorry. It's all my fault."
"You're early too."
"I know," he said in a sigh, "Why were you crying, Draco?"
Draco opened his mouth, but faltered. I…. No. No. Well, ….maybe—No. He let out a shaky breath. "I don't know."
"Yes you do," Harry wasn't going to let him off easy, they'd been dancing around this for months and he wanted an answer.
Funny thing was that Draco wanted to give him one.
"I….I think I may…" he looked about, pulling back from the warm embrace. "Love you…a little."
A grin graced his lover's lips and theirs connected for the first time in a month.
I love you too.
Yes, I know, I've been away for long, and I've been avoiding finishing this, but guess what...IT'S NOT DONE :D
Smut scene's next, but you may have to wait a couple more weeks.
Anyway, tell me how you like it!
Time for the sick to hit the hay, second session of camp tomorrow!:D Oh joy!
