Draco lay awake next to Harry , he couldn't even believe the fact that Harry fucking Potter was asleep next to him. As much as Draco didnt want to admit, ever since fourth year he'd had a crush on Harry, but Harry was such a prick to Draco as was he to Harry. It was tiresome arguing with him in the hallways and in class when all he wanted was to be with him. He was glad that he and Harry had called it quits with the fighting, but that was a long way off from a relationship. Draco sighed quietly and then decided that he was going to go to sleep.

The next morning, Harry woke up with someone cuddled up next to him. He looked down and saw none other than Draco Malfoy, curled up at his side sleeping softly. If someone had told Harry a year ago that this would be happening, he would have laughed in their face.

Harry glanced at Draco, he'd never realised how handsome Draco actually was. Mainly because all they did was bitch and argue. At least that was over with now.

He slowly detached himself from Draco, sat up on the bed and thought about everywhere they had looked the day before. "Shit, the bed!" Harry thought. They hadn't looked under the bed! Harry got up and looked under the bed and sure enough there sat both his and Dracos wands and his invisibility cloak.

Harry jumped up and grabbed Draco's arm and shook it vigorously, to try and wake the blonde up. After several attempts he started to stir and finally woke up.

A groggy looking Draco sat up and looked up at the brunette in questioning. Then he looked down at Harry's hand and understood.

"Where the fuck did you find them Potter? We looked everywhere". The sentence was barely audible, but Harry could make out what he was saying. "Under the bed, we never looked under there", a slightly less moody Harry said.

The blonde sat up and took his wand from Harry's hand a cast a quick lumos and then a nox to check the wands worked in the confined room.

"Okay malfoy, here's what we're going to do. We're going to open the door, put the invisibility cloak over both of us, and basically make a run for it".

In all honesty Harry didn't care if Draco didn't like the plan, he knew the prissy twat would probably complain but he wasn't in the mood for a temper tantrum. Considering the danger they still could be in, this was the best idea for the problem at hand.

"Well, that might put us in more danger but fuck it at this point". Draco seemed a bit done with the whole matter and Harry was grateful that it hadn't turned into a row.

Both boys stood up and walked over to the door, Harry pulled the cloak over him and Draco. "Alohomora".

The door opened much to both the boys surprise. It was deathly quiet to the point you could hear a pin drop. Harry shuddered and with all the courage he could muster, walked into the dimly lit hallway with Draco.

Draco grabbed Harry's arm and whispered softly " I know where we are, we're in the east wing of malfoy manor. I didn't recognise the room because I've never been allowed in the east wing".

The brunette knew that meant that Voldemort and all his followers were probably staying down here. He grabbed dracos hand and they ran down the hall as quietly as they could.

The marble-tiled hallway seemed to go on forever, but eventually the pair found a wooden door at the end of the corridor. It was open slightly so Harry pushed it open.

"I know where we are now I can lead us out of here without us running into anyone by accident". Draco was worried his mother or father would be in the manor and he was sure as hell either of his parents would be made to send him and Potter back if they were caught. If he took Potter the back way, where all the house elves were, they had way less of a chance of getting caught.

Harry let Draco pull him along the cold hallways of malfoy manor. Harry would never say it to Draco but the manor was beautiful. The way the chandeliers sparkled and how everything seemed so elegant and expensive. It was clear Mrs Malfoy had chosen most of the decor in here, it was exquisite taste. The manor really did scream slytherin though Harry had to admit.

Harry was pulled out of his thoughts  by Draco murmuring something about being nearly at the entrance. Harry's focus shifted to the fact that Draco was still holding his hand, he would have thought he would have let go now. Harry knew Draco was gay everyone knew that, he'd made it quite apparent when he had a public relationship with Blaise. He'd never really gave it a second thought when it happened but he did remember feeling jealous. It was small, yes, but the jealousy was there, he hated it. He couldn't have feelings for Draco there's no way.

"Potter?", "Potter?", "Potter?" Draco was loosing his patience, he'd just managed to lead both him and Potter through the back way without getting caught and the fuckwit wasn't even paying attention. He let go off Potter's hand which seemed to get his attention. "Potter, since you weren't paying attention to a single thing I was saying, I said, we need to put glamours on ourselves and call the knight bus, but we can't go back to Hogwarts, we'll put the whole school in danger of we do that. Do you know where we can go?"

Harry thought about it for a moment before realising they could both go back to Grimmauld place, he knew no one would be there since Dumbledore had deemed it unsafe for order meetings. He told Draco that information and the blonde silently agreed.

Both cast glamours on themselves then called the knight bus. Harry was grateful stanley didn't ask many questions when they got on, it was a silent ride to grimmauld place.
