The Distance Between Us

10. Boyfriends

-Third Person POV-

Pomfrey, McGonagall, Hermione, Luna, Neville, and Draco were discussing about Harry, and how he had lied for the past 8 years. Hermione said that Ron knew a bit about the predicament, she said that the Weasleys were the ones to rescue Harry in second year. 

"What do you think happened after Harry left? Are those muggles still, abusive? Didn't Harry mention, he had a cousin?" Draco asked cluelessly. 

"Yes, he did have a cousin, but he was rather, the crown jewel of their house, as Harry himself said. Harry was also basically used as a house elf, except worse." Hermione answered.

-Draco POV-

Draco nodded and went back to staring at Harry. He wondered why Harry didn't say anything to anyone, not even his best friends. They'd gone through everything together, hadn't they? This made Draco even more confused. Why would the savior of the entire wizarding world, not tell his most best friends that he was bullied and abused since he was born? Draco sighed in frustration, and ran his hand through his hair. 

After a few more minutes of everyone staring into space for no reason what so ever, "Alright, well I'm going back to the dorms, Neville, Luna, would you join me? Malfoy, you can stay if you'd like. Professor, just to tell you, there's an enormous amount of people outside trying to find out what had happened to Harry."

Lovegood and Longbottom both nodded, Draco grunted in agreement, and McGonagall just looked, confused. 

"I'll get rid of them." McGonagall volunteered. 

----TIME SKIP---- 

-Third Person POV-

It was currently 6 am in the morning, Draco Malfoy and Harry Potter are sleeping besides each other. Now, if it wasn't due to his blood lost, Harry would be awake by now. Draco is staring at Harry and his messy hair. He brushed his soft and delicate hands against Harry's face. "You have a lot of explaining to do when you wake up." Draco whispered into Harry's ear, he chuckled and fell into a deep and dreamless sleep again. 

---Time skip again---

-Harry POV-

Harry sat up very slowly, he was ignoring the big ache at the back of his head. He suddenly remembered the last thing he saw. He saw lots of blood, then he saw Draco. He felt a bit of moving besides his hand. He smiled at the sight. Draco Malfoy was sleeping soundly and peacefully in a weird position, I must say. His bottom was barely on the chair, he was about to fall off any second now, his hands kept on moving against Harry's. Harry took Draco's hand in his, and studied it. It was very pale and super soft. Harry got up and winced but since he was so foolish, he stumbled a bit. He picked Draco up and set him on his own bed. Harry stumblewalked to the bathroom to wash off his face. After he was done, he walked back to the bed feeling less miserable he would say. He climbed into bed and kissed the blond on the head, "Draco Malfoy, you are so cute." 

"Malfoys aren't cute, Potter."

-Draco POV-

Draco fluttered his eyes open, he sat up and realized that he was in the bed, once again! 

"Potter I swear if yo-" He then heard the sink in the near by bathroom. Draco smiled and realized that his little raven didn't go anywhere after all. He laid back down waiting for Harry to come back out. Harry soon climbed back into bed. Draco could feel Harry getting closer, he felt Harry's slightly chapped lips on his forehead. 

"Draco Malfoy, you are so cute."

Draco responded with,  "Malfoys aren't cute, Potter."

-Third Person POV-

Harry stared at Malfoy with a look that said 'what?' Draco chuckled at this. 

"Cat got you tongue, Potter?"

"Back to last names, are we?"

"Aww, does wittle Hawwy not wike his wast name?"

"Stuff it Draco." Harry laughed. Draco realized that he'd never heard of a more angelic laugh. He blushed a bit. 

"Dragooon, why are you blushing, it's not like we haven't kissed or anything, why are you embarrassed?"

"Shut up, someone might hear!" Draco hissed and put his hands over Harry's mouth. 

Harry kissed the hands and smiled, "So? I want people to know, that the great Slytherin Ice prince, was my boyfriend." Harry blushed at the word 'boyfriend'. 

"Since when was I your boyfriend?" Draco asked, he didn't mean the emphasize on your, it was just that, not many people were fond of him and people would start talking. He didn't want people to think he was up to something.
