Requested by drarryxxluvxxobsess and xoxonama

I am so so sorry this has taken so long, for some reason this chapter was so hard to write and I had to force the words out. I hope you enjoy!

*Italics are memories or flashbacks*

Something had happened in Harry's life before he got together with Draco, something bad. Draco didn't know what it was, but he suspected it had something to do with Harry's past relationship with Ginny. The first time he had noticed something off, was when they were together in the Room of Requirement.

They were sitting on separate chairs in the RoR, and Draco had noticed how nervous Harry looked, he wanted him to feel more relaxed and comfortable, so he invited Harry to cuddle with him.

"Come here, Harry," Draco said softly. Harry's joints immediately locked up at the familiar words, this, of course, did not go unnoticed by Draco's keen eye. "Harry? Are you okay?" He asked, he got a mute nod in response. "You wanna come snuggle? That's it, nothing else, I promise." Slowly, Harry stood from his seat and warily made his way over to Draco and into his extended arms.

That wasn't the last time Draco noticed something concerning. Harry was constantly seeking validation, asking to meet with friends, getting anxious when he heard certain words or phrases, the one time they had gotten in an argument and Draco's voice raised, Harry had immediately started apologizing profusely.

"Dray, can I go out with some of my friends tonight. It's just Seamus, Dean, Ron, Hermione and Neville. All of them are in relationships, I'm not trying to cheat on you, I swear."

"Harry." Draco responded softly, his gaze warm and loving, "you don't need to ask, I trust you completely."

"I-" Harry started, losing his voice in sheer disbelief in Draco's unabashed expression of trust, so he settled for nodding.

"Go Harry," He said, a smile playing at his lips. "Have fun with your friends, I love you."

"I- I love you too."

That was the first time they had openly declared their love for each other, Harry had seemed so shocked that someone had returned his affections, and that broke Draco's heart, someone had fucked Harry up bad, possibly more than one person.

As of now, they were cuddled together in Harry's bed in the Gryffindor dorms, the curtains were drawn around them, and they had privacy charms up. Draco had snuck in with Harry's invisibility cloak, as usual, following a Gryffindor student in when the portrait opened.

"Harry, can we talk about something?" Draco asked gently, his left hand in Harry's hair, combing through the mess of raven curls gently.

"Yeah," Harry mumbled distractedly, focused on the fingers on Draco's right hand that he was playing with.

"Harry, I'm going to need you to focus, okay darling?"

"Whyyyyy?" Harry whined, in response, burying his head in Draco's chest.

"Because Harry, we need to talk about Ginny and your relatives." Harry tensed immediately.

"Why. They aren't important, it's all in the past." He had stopped playing with Draco's fingers, and his voice had gone guarded, Draco was almost certain he had put up his occlumency shields as well.

"That's just the problem, Harry." He said, his voice tender and soft. "It's not in the past, whatever they did to you, it still hurts you. I just want you to be happy love." Draco had expected Harry to jump away from him, possibly start yelling like he usually did when his emotions ran high, but he just buried his heart in Draco's chest and started crying.
