Harry set the fire that day. For once the sound of a fire crackling in the night peaceful. It sizzled, its burning hot color hissing when he messed around with it.
From time to time he would need to leave to collect firewood, only to find it in vain since they would soon be asleep when it went out. Nevertheless, he would get up and collect more each time they were in need of more.
The night grew colder.
He pulled his jacket closer to his body in a poor attempt to warm himself. Long forgotten about the fire. Goosebumps danced across his arms especially. Harry rubbed his hands together blowing warm air into them. The cold was unforgiving it bit into his skin and Harry glanced over to the other man. Only slightly concerned about him.
"Could you be any louder?" Malfoy furrowed his brows and gritted his teeth tightly at him.
Harry had almost been surprised by the sudden outburst, instead he rolled his eyes," Like you're any better, I can barely sleep with you shivering every second."
"Like hell I would be, we are freezing in this weather because little Potter couldn't handle walking a couple more miles."
"And like I already said, we would have had less time to set up for camp." Harry glared at him. He debated whether he should leave him behind or not the next morning. He was already tired of his yapping. All he did was complain, complain, complain. Had he ever been smacked before? "Just go to sleep Malfoy."
"I don't need you telling me what I already know." He turned his back to him and pulled his legs closer to his chest.
Silence was heard once again until Malfoy's stomach growled lightly, but enough for it to reach Harry's ears.
"Did you-did you even eat?" Harry quickly turned his gaze back to the lying male. Annoyingly, his gaze softening his voice almost soothing the other before he stopped himself. He couldn't figure out why this happened, but that was a later problem.
