When Harry next woke up he was lying on his back in the Forbidden Forest. Harry sat up and looked around. Lucius was standing about ten feet away from Harry. Narcissa was at his shoulder and Draco was standing behind both of them, looking terrified.
Harry gets to his feet and digs in his pocket for his wand. He pulls is out and pointed it at Lucius
“Why are you doing this?” Harry shouted.
“The dark lord—”
“Voldemort is gone! He can’t come back! Why are you trying to kill me now?”
Lucius doesn’t say anything. He raises his wand and aims at Harry’s chest.
“Avada Kedavra!”
A flash of green light shoots toward Harry and he doesn’t have a chance to react. But when Harry opens his eyes he can still see the trees around him and Lucius standing in front of him. Lucius is looking down at Harry’s feet and Harry looks down too.
Draco was lying on the forest floor, his eyes closed and motionless. Harry dropped to his knees beside him.
“Draco…” Harry whispered, his eyes filling with tears.
Lucius tries to run to Draco’s side but Harry raises his wand and he stops.
“Don’t you dare come near him!” Harry yells, tears streaming down his face. “I will kill you! Leave him alone!”
Lucius backed up to Narcissa who was crying too. Harry looked down at Draco again.
“I’m sorry, Dray,” Harry says. “I love you!”
Harry lays on the ground next to Draco, sobbing into his shoulder. Lucius and Narcissa don’t come near Harry. A lot of time passes before Harry sits up and looks down at Draco’s pale face.
But then Draco’s eyes flutter open.
“Harry?”
Harry looks up. “Dray? What—how?”
Draco sits up and wraps his arms around Harry, also crying.
“I’m fine, Harry,” Draco laughs.
“But…you got hit with—”
Draco pulls away from Harry and watches him, smiling. “No, I didn’t! I deflected it but I hit my head when I landed on the ground.”
Harry starts crying again and hugs Draco. Narcissa and Lucius are staring, dumbfounded, at Draco too.
“Draco!” Narcissa cries but he ignores her.
Draco leans forward and Harry is so surprised that he feels like he can’t breathe.
Draco is kissing him and Harry would have never believed it of him. Not, at least, when he wasn’t put under a spell like when their potions assignment.
Draco pulls away and laughs at how surprised Harry looks. Draco kisses him again and this time Harry does too, enjoying every second of it.
