The second life of Harry Potter

Chapter Six

Draco was told to sit next to Harry in their classes for the last week of school. "Hey, Draco, could we maybe start over? I want to have people who want to be friends because of who I am and not because of what I can do for them as the boy-who-lived." Draco was shocked and then shook Harry's hand. "Hi, I'm Draco Malfoy and would like to be your friend." Harry giggled. "I am Harry Potter, and I am delighted to be your friend." They both softly laughed as Severus began to teach his last potion class of the year. Hermione and Ron glared at the two teens and towards the end of the class they got fed up with how nice Draco was being to Harry. "Hey, leave my best mate alone." Ron basically shoved Draco off his stool and made Harry fall on the floor while he held a knife. "Mr. Weasley, 500 points will be taken from Gryffindor for almost killing another student!" Severus was helping Harry up while checking to see if the knife went in him or if he had any cuts, the man didn't want to be killed by the dark lord if he let Harry get hurt in any way while under his supervision. "I'm not hurt." Harry whispered to the man before he turned to Ron and shoved the redhead to get to Draco. "Are you okay?" He helped Draco to his feet and the other teen nodded. "Why are you helping that git." Ron wanted to punch Harry for being nice to Draco. "Because he is my friend." Ron and Hermione both shared worried glances and before the girl moved to touch Harry. "We are your friends Harry, not Draco. You two can't be in the same room without insulting each other." Harry moved away from her and took Draco's hand and left the classroom and didn't look back. "Where are we going?" "Away from them. I can't believe I was ever friends with them." Harry shook his head in disgust before Draco pulled Harry into a room he had never been in before. "These are my soulmate's rooms; they can't get in here." Harry looked around and saw a picture of Draco and Severus together, they were smiling, and Severus was holding Draco from behind. "You and Snape?" Draco blushed and nodded. "I've known for my whole life practically. My parents told me when I was five that one day, I would marry Sev, and so I spent all my young life planning my wedding and spending all the time I could with Sev. We are getting married when I graduate." Draco spoke in a wistful tone, like he couldn't wait to be tied to Severus Snape, to become Draco Snape. "I can't wait until I can be with my soulmate all the time." Harry sighed as he remembered Tom. "Who is your soulmate?" Draco gasped when he saw the calligraphy above his heart, and he bowed to him. "My Lady." Harry pulled Draco to his feet. "I hate when people bow, it feels too weird." Harry and Draco soon sat on the couch talking about everything that was important and Draco even enlightened Harry on the dark sect. "Dragon?" Severus entered the room and pulled Draco into a big hug and swung him into his arms. Harry smiled and wished that he was Tom. "I thought Harry would like to be away from all the red and gold for a moment. It's okay that I brought him here, right?" Severus smiled and kissed Draco's forehead. "I was going to suggest it anyway. We should get ready to go soon. Harry you are going to watched by myself under a glamour, and I will follow you to the muggle's house. Sirius and Remus will be under glamours as well and will meet us there." Draco hugged Harry and wished him a happy week or so with the guys before he ran back to his dorm to pack up his things. "So, did Tom say anything?" Severus smiled slightly; Harry was the only one who got to call the dark lord by his given name. "You will spend three days there before the dark lord shows up and takes you in full view of one of Dumbledore's spies, while you are visiting your grandparent's grave." Harry nodded, he wanted Tom, that is the only thing he wanted. "Can we make it look like some random kidnapping? I don't want Tom to be tied to this just yet. It might help since the ministry doesn't believe that he is back." Severus look a little surprised, Harry had clearly thought about this and had a full plan. "You should bring that up to the Dark Lord. Very well go, you need to sleep before the train gets here to take you back." Harry smiled and ran back to the tower and groaned at all the red and gold, he just wanted to be in nice room without all the color and lions. "Harry James Potter! What was that earlier with that slimy git!" Hermione and Ron demanded an answer and Harry just wasn't in the mood to deal with them. "I was being nice. I don't like fighting him all the time, maybe next year we can have a normal year." Hermione and Ron just stared at him like he was crazy. "You-know-who is back, you need to start training." Ron said in more of a whisper yell and Hermione nodded along like a broken bobble head. "I just want to get this summer over with, and perhaps see a mind healer." He turned and finished packing and found spare parchment to write a letter to Tom with a few questions and sent it with Hedwig. 

~THE LETTER~

Dear Tommy, 

I am all packed and ready to leave Hogwarts to be with you. I told Severus that I don't want anyone to know that you are the one that rescued me from the muggles. It would help to keep the ministry ignorant of your plans and would help paint Dumbles as a senile old man. I'll tell you the rest of the plan when I see you again.
