Inescapable | Drarry + Bleville ✔︎

Chapter 49

Blaise's POV:

He was happy for Neville to be back in his life. He even got to meet his grandmother! It was awkward, but she did make a good apple pie.

Not to mention Draco and Harry finally got together! Even though they were keeping it secret, they still managed to look cute when they were together without even having to do "coupley-things".

Everything seemed great for everyone... but there was only one problem. Harry had brought to his attention that Draco was having issues. He was harming himself!

He barely talked to Draco anymore so there was no way he'd be able to notice. He basically abandoned Draco! He couldn't help but wonder if it was all his fault.

Every day, him and Harry would take turns checking Draco's arm for new marks. So far, he was clean! It wasn't until Harry came stomping towards him in a rush that he began to really worry.

"Blaise, get up now! Something's wrong." Harry urges.

"What? With what?!"

"Hurry!" Harry shouts, running away from him and up the steps.

Blaise releases Neville's hand and rushes after him. He notices him going into the second floor bathroom... but why?

As he steps into the doorway he can hear sobs and whines coming from inside.

"Draco, where are you?!" Harry shouts. Oh no.

"I can't do it!" He hears Draco's voice cry out.

Harry looks under every stall, stopping at the far left one.

"Let me in!" Harry shouts.

"I can't! I can't move!" Draco shouts.

Blaise rushes over, "Draco, it's Blaise. Tell us what's happening. Are you having urges?"

"Yes." Draco sobs.

"Did you try a coping mechanism?" Harry asks.

"I can't!" Draco shouts.

"You can! You're strong, we know you are. Try talking to us about it." Harry says calmly.

"I tried to stop it! I really did! I worried that... if... I did it... you would both hate me... I would be a dissa-appointment." Draco says through sobs, "But I couldn't stop! It wouldn't go away no matter what I did! It wanted to rip my hair out!" Draco shouts.

"You should've come to us." Blaise says.

"No! You were both busy and I'd just be... a burden!" Draco sobs.

"No you wouldn't." Both Harry and Blaise say in chorus.

"Please help me! Get me out of here!" Draco begs.

"Alohamora!" Harry shouts. The lock breaks and Harry opens the door to reveal a distressed Draco.

His clothes were wrinkled, his hair a mess, his face and eyes red and covered in tears, and him rocking back and forth while violently scratching his arm.

Harry walks towards him and grabs his hands. "Stop that. Come here." He whispers calmly, pulling Draco up.

He's shaking as if he was standing naked in the freezing cold. Blaise couldn't stand to see him like this.

Harry tries to stand him up, but he nearly falls over.

"Blaise, come help hold him up." Harry says, putting Draco's arm over his shoulder. Blaise does the same with his other side and they start to walk him over towards the exit.
