Drarry; A Comfort Story

Chapter 16

Draco's POV

I woke up this morning to find I was in fact, not in my own bed. I sat up and looked around. Weasley was in the bed across from me, and Harry was at my side, holding me at my waist. I couldn't get up. I didn't mind much though, this was Harry, the guy I've loved since forever, it just took me till third year to realize it. I smiled at myself as I remembered the events from last night. I knew Harry had nightmares often, but I didn't know he really needed me with him to sleep. He started to stir a bit, and his arms started to loose. He opened his eyes and looked up at me, smiling.

"Good morning, Draco."

"Morning Harry."

He sat up, his arms now gone from my waist. He put his head on my shoulder, and I put my head on his. I put an arm around him, and kissed his head. We continued to sit there in silence, just enjoying each other's company. He was still smiling, and I couldn't help but smile in return. Harry started to get up, but I grabbed him back.

"Dray, we need to get ready." He chuckled.

"I don't care, I still want to cuddle, plus, you don't know what time it really is." I huffed.

He casted a Tempus to check. It read 6:22. Breakfast started at 7:00. I sighed and allowed him to get up, also getting up myself. I gave him a quick kiss before heading back to my common room to get ready. Pansy greeted me, and asked me if Harry was okay.

"Of course he is, he had me to be there." Was my response.

I actually don't know if he was really okay or not, but Pansy seemed very worried, and that's new. Normally I'm the one she's worried for. But, since I'm also worried for Harry, I let it go. I walked up to my shared room with Blaise, to find him just getting up. I assumed he wasn't aware of last night's episode, but he didn't ask. I went to the bathroom and quickly showered, then got dressed and continued on my way to breakfast.

Harry's POV

Draco gave me a quick kiss before heading out. I woke Ron up after Draco left. I made sure he was up before I went to the bathroom to shower and change. Once I finished, I found Ron all ready, waiting for me.

"Where's Malfoy?" He asked.

"Oh, he left just before I woke you up." I replied.

"Okay. Did you get any sleep last night?"

"Yea, thanks for bringing Draco for me."

"It's nothing, mate. Now let's get 'Mione and go to breakfast."

"Alright."

We headed into the common room, and found Hermione, sitting on one of the couches, waiting for us. She stood up.

"There you guys are, I thought I was going to have to wait forever!" She exclaimed.

"Sorry, 'Mione." I mumbled.

"That's perfectly alright. By the way, Harry, how did you sleep last night?"

"I slept well, thanks." I smiled.

We headed off to the Great Hall for breakfast. We went over to the Slytherin table, where our friends were waiting. Hermione greeted Pansy, and got into an immediate conversation about something. Ron was already talking to Blaise about Quidditch. I sat next to Draco, who instantly smiled. He put his hand in mine from under the table, as we ate. I really didn't feel like doing anything today, besides spending it all with Draco. But it's Thursday. A couple more days till the weekend. That's going to take forever.

I finished eating and waited for Draco before going to class. We walked out of the Great Hall, but before continuing, he stopped, looking at the floor.

"Draco? Is something wrong?" I asked, genuinely worried.

"No, but I was about to ask you the same question. You seemed more down than usual. Something happen?" He looked up at me.

"No, I just, really don't feel like doing anything today. Besides spending the day with you. Cuddling and sleeping. That'd be nice." I muttered.

"It would be, I know. But we can do that after classes, and even more on the weekend. Just be patient for me, okay?"

"Fine."

He chuckled and gave me a small kiss on the lips, then my cheek.

"Alright, now get to class, love."

I groaned a bit in protest, but went anyway. I got to Charms, and instantly wanted him back. Classes were boring without him. Finally, it was time for lunch. I was too tired to go, so I just went back to my common room.
