I was in the
Ministry of Magic again.
Bellatrix, Lucius, and all the rest of the stupid
Death Eaters there, cornering me, my friends, and the rest of the Order.
somehow wasn’t at the same time.
“Sirius.”
looked at him, confused as to why he was still there.
Sirius smiled down
at me. “Of course I am, Harry, what did
you think, that I’d died or
something??”
I stared at him
some more. “Well… yes, actually I
did.” Leave it to me
were at least ten Death Eaters surrounding you.
Sirius strode over
to me to cup my cheek in his hand. “Come
on, Harry. We need to beat them.
I nodded eagerly,
just glad that he was still there.
Turning back, I saw
that Lucius Malfoy and Bellatrix
LeStrange were standing right there, both wearing
sinister smiles.
And just like that…
I watched Bellatrix kill Sirius once again.
I shouted, I
screamed, but Remus held me back.
I finally got free
of him and ran after her, but as I got out of there, she was already gone.
And then he was
there. Voldemort.
then heard a voice come out of the shadows.
“Harry?”
“Draco.
“I know,” he
responded, coming toward me as he did so and bending down to lift me up so that
I could stand with him. “But I couldn’t
let you be here alone. You should never
done just minutes before. I shivered under
his touch.
“W-what are you
doing?” I stared into his eyes, confused
but at the same time not wanting him to let go of me.
“Something I
should’ve done a long time ago. I… I
lo-”
“
“NOOOOO!!!!!!!!”
die right in front of my eyes, one more person I loved.
I sat straight up in bed, breathing hard and sweating,
but at the same time thanking that it was only a dream.
So then why couldn’t I shake the horrible feeling that
was in the pit of my stomach?? Taking a
slow, shaky breath to try to calm myself, I silently hopped out of the bed,
went to my trunk, and grabbed the Invisibility Cloak before draping it around
myself and taking out the Marauder’s Map as well.
“I solemnly swear that I am up to no good,” I whispered
before slipping out of the dorm, then the common room, and then walking through
the corridors.
Staring at the Map, I quickly found Malfoy, who was in
his common room, though I couldn’t imagine what he would be doing.
awake this late at night?!
I walked down to the dungeons, just hoping that I
wouldn’t get caught.
Finally getting to the entrance to the Slytherin common
room, I started to knock, hoping that I wouldn’t wake anyone up.
As he opened the door I took off the Cloak, and looked up
into the surprised eyes of Draco Malfoy.
“Umm… hey?”
“Hi,” I responded quietly.
“What’s wrong?” Oh
wow. He seemed genuinely concerned…
a change. And exactly what I’d been
hoping for.
“Can… can I come in maybe?”
inside. “I, uh…” I bit my lip trying to
say it out loud, “I had a dream about Voldemort.”
He walked over to the couch and gestured for me to
sit. “Are you okay?” he asked
softly.
I shut my eyes tightly, trying to blink back any tears
that might come and nodded a little.
“Good. Out of
curiosity though… why are you here,
of all places? I mean, why aren’t you
talking to Weasley or something about this?”
“I didn’t want to wake anyone else up from my house and
then saw that you were still awake. You
don’t mind, do you?”
“N-no, it’s fine.
Did you…” his voice trailed off and I could tell he was nervous.
I looked up at him.
“Hmm?”
His mouth opened and closed.
I stared at him, mouth agape.
but here he was, basically just asking me to spend the night with him.
voice somehow went to a slight squeak which I desperately hoped he hadn’t
heard.
“Well there’s always the common room couch but I know for
a fact that it’s not the most comfortable thing in the world, and then there’s
always the floor, but you’re sure to hurt your back, so… mybedthen?”
“Right.

because I’m really tired and everything,” I added for good measure.
“Yeah.
up and led the way to his room while I followed, swallowing nervously.
I’d never slept with someone else before.
nevermind!
His room was so… green.
fit that much green in one room.
He still had his back to me when he whirled around,
making me jump a tiny bit. “Let’s get
one thing straight though,” he glared.
“No funny business here. Just
because we’re all ‘friends’ and everything now does not mean that we’re sharing the same covers or snuggling up or
anything; take a blanket from the corner, ‘kay?”
hold the same malice that it usually did.
I nodded and did as I was told.
Climbing into his full-size bed, I could see he was
already on his side, facing away from me.
I stared at his back, lying on my side.
“Harry?” he whispered in the darkness, voice slightly
muffled.
“Yeah?”
“Did you… did you want to talk about it?”
could see me, even in the darkness. I
felt tears prick my eyes, and cursed myself for how vulnerable I was at the
moment.
“It’s just… I’m
scared,” I finally admitted and could feel the tears start rolling down my
cheeks slowly. My eyes started to get
blurry but I could’ve sworn I saw a tear
on that pale face of his right before he embraced me in his arms, holding my
head in his hand.
“Shh… it’ll be alright.
before—surprisingly—kissing my forehead and falling asleep with me once my
tears ceased.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I woke up the next morning, a wonderful feeling in the
pit of my stomach. I was snuggled up
against something soft and warm, and after having woken up, readjusted my
position, sighing happily.
I have to say, that was the best night of sleep I’d had
in months. No nightmares at all, just
When I opened my eyes, though, I realized just what it
was I had been laying with.
At first I was confused, but then last night’s memories
came flooding back to me. The dream,
walking through the corridors down to the dungeons, asking to come into the
Slytherin common room, and then the worst—and best at the same time somehow—of
it all… falling asleep next to him.
I took a moment to look at him.
You’d never think someone who looked so comfortable and happy could
awake.
His arms were still wrapped around me, completely
content. I tried to disentangle myself
from him but in the end could only get one arm out.
Wow… he’s a really hard sleeper,
huh? I woke up two freaking minutes ago
and he still hasn’t moved!
I stared him some more before bringing my hand up—now
that my arm was finally free—and moved the hair away so that it was no longer
in his eyes. Just as I did that though,
he stirred, grumbling and moving around a little bit before settling back into
where he was in the first place.
“Five more minutes, Blaise…”
My eyebrows scrunched together and I rolled my eyes.
whisper.
“Go away, Blaise…!” he grumbled
again and I used my free hand to shake his shoulder.
you git!
His eyes finally fluttered open and I stopped the
shaking. But then his eyes went wide out
of shock. “Harry!
but still didn’t move said arm from its position.
I raised my eyebrows at him.
didn’t want to talk to Ron about it…”
His eyes were blank. Despite how
much I wished I weren’t so god damn susceptible,
the hurt started to settle in my stomach, replacing the wonderful feeling that
was there only minutes before.
“I-I should get going…”
Luckily it was still early enough in the morning that people were most
likely still sleeping, but just in case, I put on the Invisibility Cloak,
grabbed my wand and the Marauder’s Map and walked out of the room before he
could even say anything.
Who knows? Maybe
having a friendship with him was a bad idea…
