Potter jumped up at the sound of Draco's scream and looked at him as if he was possessed. He gasped and wrapped the invisibility cloak more tightly around himself. Draco, noticing the Invisibility Cloak, let out a sigh of relief.
He slammed himself against the wall and slumped to the floor, his gaze locked with Harry's emotionless one.
He raised his trembling hand and ran it through Harry's messy black hair. When he felt the warmth of Harry's head, he collapsed again.
Harry was fine.
That was enough for him. But there was no reason for him to not take out his stress on Harry.
He raised his hand and slapped Harry in the face. But of course Harry didn't understand the reason for Draco's behavior and continued to look at him. His mind was too exhausted to understand his surroundings. He was about to grab Draco by the collar with that slap, but he paused.
"Where's Ginny?"
His gaze slid from Draco's eyes to the wall behind him. Everything passed before Harry's eyes. He suffered for two years. Soulless, staring at some unknown point; a look that horrified Draco's cold face.
He grabbed Harry's shoulder and shook him hard and called his name louder and louder until Harry's gaze returned to his face with Draco's last scream. His mouth was half open and sadness poured from his eyes. So much that even Draco, with his extreme inability to read eyes, would have noticed.
Draco took a deep breath. "Harry, what in Merlin's name happened here?"
Harry stroked his hand across the floor, picking up some of the red stains. It dripped through his fingers and onto Draco's robe and mixed with Harry's tears. Draco, who was sitting on one knee, looked straight in Harry's emerald eyes.
"Harry; Ginny... " he said. He didn't want to continue his sentence. He didn't have the courage. Was this Ginny's blood? What else could have worried Harry so much? Harry's imperceptible nod startled Draco.
Whatever had happened, it must have been terrible. So terrible that Harry was clinging to his Invisibility Cloak like that.
So horrible that Draco just wanted to run away. So horrible that even Ginny was not there.
