All the Quiet Observers (Drarry)

Chapter 14

Harry very abruptly sat down on the couch, his mind racing, fuming as Draco still stood stalk-stone still in the corner of the room, sobbing quietly.

Harry didn't really know what to thing; everything was going to fast; everything was too complicated.

Narcissi was dead, Lucius.. left and basically hated them.. everything's was a mess.

Harry put his head in his hands.

"Fuck," he whispered.

Draco didn't move, nothing happens, just silence, the rattling of the loud door slamming still ringing in Harry's ears.

He wondered how it must feel for Draco.. even worse. But Harry was in the middle of this whole mess, too.

"I have to go-" Draco said very suddenly, walking very quickly to the doorway as Harry looked up.

He grabbed everything, his lamp and papers, he proceeded to the other rooms and stuffed things in his suitcase.

"Dra- what are you doing?" Harry asked confusedly and loudly- he  didn't really know what he was feelings anymore.

Draco didn't respond for a moment.

"I just can't right now. I need a break- I need to leave," Draco said very stonefly and emotionlessly, not sounding like himself at all. Harry could tell that he was screaming inside.

"What-" Harry said at once, a mixture of confusion and pain and anger spreading through him.

What was Draco doing?

Was he-leaving?

"Draco, love. You can't- you can't just-" Harry began, his voice trailing off intensely.

"I'm sorry," Draco began, stuffing more things hurriedly into his suitcase.

"I'll contact you tomorrow.. I'll explain," Draco said.

Harry had nothing to respond to that- his mind was racing too much and he was more confused and shocked and sad and angry then ever.

He didn't understand..

He didn't understand anything. Why everything had to happen now, why everything had fled on him at once, why Draco was packing, why he was leaving, why did he have to leave, why?

What had Harry done?

What had he done to deserve this?

Harry was zoning out as he was thinking about these things when he heard the gentle zip of the suitcase and a great wave of random guilt and sadness fled over him.

Draco passed Harry who was sitting on the floor without saying  anything to Gina be made to put on his shoes.

Harry could see a tear- even two, trickle down Draco's cheek as he lay to suitcase on the carpeted floor and put on his shoes.

Harry looked around.

Draco had left some things because he obviously couldn't fit everything in his suitcase and he had clearly only taken the most necessary things.

"Bye.." Draco said in weird voice, and without waiting for a response, he stood up, rolled his suitcase, opens the door, walked out, and shut the door.

Harry heard the sound of the wheels from the suitcase growing distant...
