I Do What I Want (Drarry)

Uneasy

            Everyone looked like they had been stunned frozen. Harry wondered if they were even breathing. The wide eyed and slack jawed expressions were on everyone. Even Severus.

            "That is why we decided to tell you guys is because of the stone." Draco added when no one said a word. Were they statues? If he hadn't been holding Harry, he might have been tempted to check their pulses. Were they still alive?

            "Your blood is in the stone?" Severus breathed. His mind was running rampage trying to figure out if that would've had an affect when Harry touched the stone or not. Did his sacrifice mean that the stone would recognize that? Is that why he was able to use the darkness from the stone to bring Draco back? How did this play into stopping the darkness?

            Harry nodded. "Yes. They said that they had tried on three separate occasions before and it didn't work but that I had a lot of power inside me that they would need to complete the ritual." Harry explained.

            Fred and George whistled in surprise. "Do you think the darkness came from the ritual?" Pansy asked biting her lip.

            Harry shook his head. "No. Being a part of a dark ritual like that might have affected me if I lived but I didn't even touch anything but the altar so I don't think so. The blood was drained out of my body into runes that were etched into an altar and then pulled into the stone. The blood is what gives it the shiny red color." Harry shuddered thinking about it.

            "I think the darkness came from touching the stone when I was eleven. I think every new life would essentially be a clean slate. I don't think anything like the darkness could have come back into this life. I am connected to the stone do doubt and my magic is definitely all in it. So that would have an effect on me but I don't think there was any darkness inside me until I touched the stone." Harry couldn't be one hundred percent of this but his gut instinct was telling him that he was right.

            Severus thought about it and it made sense to a certain degree. The only problem was that there is nothing to compare it to so who is to say what the actual answers are. They are flying blind and can only speculate at this point.

            "I can't believe he killed you for the stupid stone." Blaise said moodily. How could someone be so selfish? How could you take the lives of countless people and not feel any remorse? And for what? So that they could live forever?

            Harry fidgeted not sure if he should mention anything. "That wasn't the only reason he killed me." Draco tilted Harry's head back and looked at him curiously.

            "What are you taking about?" He demanded, wondering why Harry would have been keeping something from him. He tried not to let it bother him but it did.

            Harry could feel the hurt coming from Draco and he kissed his nose. "I am sorry babe. I didn't mean to not tell you about it. It is just that we were pretty emotional last night and before I could bring it up we... er became occupied." Harry said pointedly. The quartet snorted while grimaces could be seen on the rest of the groups faces.

            "You have the marks to prove it." Fred said wryly. Harry furrowed his brows. What was he talking about? George pointed to his neck. Harry couldn't see his neck so he was still confused until he remembered how affectionate Draco had been last night to his neck. Harry flushed and looked away. He wasn't about to cover them up though, he liked the reminder that he was Draco's. The hickeys were meant to be on display.  

            Draco smiled at the way Harry was pleased when he remembered the marks. Good. He would continue to mark Harry regardless. Draco tilted Harry's head back and pecked him on the lips.
