Molly My Saviour (Drarry)

Chapter 5- Carnival

Harry's P.O.V

After Draco shut down Ginny for me, I felt myself calm down little by little as I conversed with Draco about random things. Quidditch, Lucifer, School...You know...Stuff you would talk about to avoid traumatizing subjects?

I grabbed a few apple slices and popped them in my mouth eagerly before I could let my food settle. I suddenly felt phantom sweat on my forehead and my throat was filling up. I practically felt my face turning pale and sickly green.

Draco saw this and pulled me up carefully, swiftly dragging me to the bathroom before I could sick all over the breakfast table.

We got there just in time and I kneeled over the loo, vomiting all in the bowl for a good 5 seconds with Draco comfortingly rubbing my back before dry heaving and eventually stopping.

"Are you ok now?" Draco asks, his eyes wide and concern lacing his voice. I simply nodded before wiping my mouth and casting a charm to get rid of the filthy taste.

I look in the bowl for a brief moment and see some chunks of grapes and apples, but the rest is just watery stomach acid. I sigh in defeat and disappointment. I was really hoping to get a proper meal in.

Draco read my face like a book and reassuringly but hesitantly wrapped his arm around my shoulders, pulling me into him closely in an attempt to comfort me. Which worked by the way.

"Sorry you have to go through this...You really don't deserve this...." I just looked him in the eyes before scanning his body.

His body looks just like mine before he so generously healed it. He's extremely thin, not as thin as I was but he was most definitely not healthy. His face was hollowed with overly defined cheekbones and riddled with small and thin red scars that were put in patches on his cheeks, healing bruises proving dominant on his jaw, arms, legs and corner of his right eye. He looks like he hadn't slept properly in over 2 years. Why hasn't anyone pointed this out?

He saw me studying his features and his cheeks glowed a light pink before he snapped me out of my trance. "You really shouldn't care about me, you're the chosen one, the one everyone rightfully cares for and needs to be protected. I'm just a low-life scum of a Death Eater, an infinitesimal being and an overall anathematized...faggot." He said with a pained smile on his face.

I gave him a sympathetic and shocked look and brought him in for a small hug, he hugged back and clung onto me for dear life. I felt a couple tears drop onto my shoulder and he started to whimper.

After about 2 minutes, I carefully started to pull away and was faced towards a sniffling and puffy-eyed Draco Malfoy.

I began to write once more, but instead I wrote it on his arm as somewhat of a...Temporary tattoo. 'If people really look up to me that much, then they care about my opinions. My opinion of you is that you are the greatest, most amazing and supportive in the world.' I finished writing and he read through all of it, a few more tears, sniffles and whimpers escaping from him as he attempts a smile at me but it looks as more of a grimace.

I smile at him widely and genuinely, flashing my teeth, although I am still unable to get my eyes to convey as much emotion. He seems mesmerized at this as he stares at my smile with slightly wide eyes, his eyes shimmering in all sorts of emotions and feelings.

I slowly close my lips and it turns into just a small smile and shy smile. 'You know, maybe we could just sneak off somewhere together?' I wrote in the air and he brightened.

"Sounds like fun" he says quietly as he smiles and wipes his eyes.

I grabbed his hand and we walked upstairs together into our room. We got clothes and quickly got dressed facing away from eachother. Although, I may or may not have stolen a few glances, to which I blushed a dark red at.

We both eventually finished. I got dressed in a pair of light blue skinny jeans, black hightops with a skull on the sides and a light pink shirt with a grey hoodie that I pulled up to just over my elbows.

He was dressed in light blue ripped jeans, a white tank top with a cattle skull print on it, a brown leather jacket, suspenders that hang off the side of his jeans, a blue knit hat, brown leather boots and a necklace with 3 bullet shells on them.

(Yes they're video game character outfits, bonus points if you know the characters and game.)

"So where should we go?" Draco asked and I thought about it for a second before writing. 'There's a muggle festival that's being held in London, if you'd like to go with me? I know you aren't exactly fond of muggle things.' He reads it quickly and smiles slightly.

"That sounds wonderful" He says as he wraps Lucifer around my neck and stands me up, dragging me down the srairs and out of the front door.

"You lead the way, since you know where it is." He says and I nod, apparating us to a hidden area near the carnival, slightly swaying around and about to get sick again but I swallow it down.

We both walk out and look at the carnival in front of us.

There's a ton of fairy lights and chinese lanterns strung up everywhere, you can hear blasts of music, chatter and street performer's audiences cheering. The smell of fresh cotton candy and spiced kettlecorn is indulging the carnival and the multi-coloured lights from the rides lure us deeper into the carnival as we stand in awe at the already breathtaking sight.

"What are we waiting for?!" Draco screams and he grabs my wrist, dragging me into the carnival after him. The lights of everything gleaming in his eyes and decorating his face in gracious colours.

I run in with him, laughing and smiling widely until I hear a hiss-like voice in my ear.

"He must really like you."
