Harry awoke the next morning, turning to Draco who was asleep on his side next to him, he shuffled closer to him and wrapped both arms around him as he shivered when his hand touched his stomach "Are you cold?" "A bit." Harry pulled the duvet up a bit more. The brunette felt his forehead as warmth hit the back of his hand "Your burning up baby." He nodded "But I'm really cold from the waist down." "Oh darling, what else do you feel?" "Sick, but I don't feel that sick to be sick like last night." "Last night was horrible." "It was."
Draco lied against him again and looked up at Harry "Come sit." He patted his lap as he shuffled to sit in his lap and leaned in and kissed his nose. Harry smiled and tucked a lock of hair out of his ear "You alright angel?" He asked, stroking his hair gently "I'm fine." He snuggled into his chest "I love you, Harry." "I love you more." Harry stopped playing with his hair when he noticed Draco had dozed back off to sleep. He smiled, leaning his head on top of his, pressing soft, little kisses to his forehead.
An hour later, Draco's eyes fluttered open and rose from Harry's lap, leaving his warm embrace to use the toilet and brush his teeth. As he was coming out, he felt a pair of arms pull him into their bedroom "Where are you taking me?" He asked innocently. Draco heard him giggle and then they collapsed on the bed. Harry hovered over him and planted a kiss to his nose as they heard someone knock at the door "Who's that?" "Let me have a look." Harry waked downstairs to open the door as he saw his uncle, he whimpered. Draco walked downstairs "Is that the uncle that raped you?" He whispered in his ear as he nodded and turned around, burying his face in his neck. Draco rubbed his back and closed the door behind him "It's alright." He guided him over to the living room, opening the door, closing it behind him "I love you and I won't let him hurt you or touch you because he is a rapist. He should never had touched you when you were so little and so vulnerable. How old were you?" "6." "You were only so young, you still had a lot of growing up to do but now your 15 and it's now in the past." He nodded "Harry, can I ask you something?" "Yes, of course." "Are you afraid of me?" "I don't know, Draco. I know deep down that you'll never lay a hand on me so when you're touching me, I relax but otherwise around others who touch me, I tense up. I know that you won't lay a hand on me but I-" Draco stopped him and wrapped him up in a hug.
Harry hugged back and felt Draco shaking "Draco, talk to me, what's going on?" He shook his head and buried his head into his chest "Why can't I be normal?" He mumbled. Harry rubbed his back to try and relax him "My dear, what is normal?" He asked as he looked up "You're normal." He said "You don't cut nor self harm. You have loving parents and you've had a decent childhood." He said. Harry went to argue but he got him off "I'm ashamed that I never told you any of this because throughout my childhood I used to overdose on medicine and sometimes my dad brought home drugs which cost over £180 and I used to go upstairs and it was always in the bathroom." He explained "I remember when my mum used to come in my room and I used to be high as a kite, she had to take me to the hospital and get whatever I had in my system flushed out and Dad fucked me up Harry." His voice broke and started crying "Come here angel." He opened his arms as he took off the blanket and crawled over to him, lying against his chest, between his legs.
Harry thread his fingers with his hair as he relaxed and hushed him "Do you think we might need to give a statement?" "I don't know, maybe." "Do you want to go on your own or shall I come with you?" "I'll go on my own, but can you drop me off?" "Of course, go and take a shower and I'll get you an outfit ready." "Okay." The blonde walked across the hall to the bathroom and got in the shower, letting the warm water run down his back before getting ready. After 15 minutes, Draco walked upstairs with a towel around him and noticed the outfit Harry picked out for him which was light blue jeans with a black long sleeved top "This okay?" "Perfect, thank you." He dropped the towel to pull on underwear and walked over to Harry and pulled him in for a kiss. When they pulled away, Harry let him get dressed.
