Draco rubbed his tired eyes as he sat up and glanced to where Harry was but found the spot empty, he groaned "Potter" Harry snuck off in the middle of the night back to his own dorm since nothing was wrong with him but he wondered how long he would continue to lie to himself but now he had some information on what was wrong with him so first thing he did was head to the library for books on creature inheritance and Draco had to guess where the raven would go.

Harry looked at the book he was reading on magical creatures and creature inheritances, without knowing what kind of creature he was- this was just a guess and choose game. If he even was part creature anyway.

Draco checked the library and soon found Harry on the floor near a window with a book in his lap "Pottah!" He scowled at the Raven who glared at him "I don't need you to follow me! I'm fine" he waved him off "How long will you lie like that? I know the damn signs of what your going through" Harry raised a brow at that and Draco cursed himself for his slip up, if his Father knew about him giving away that he was part Veela he had no idea what he'll say only knowing that it wouldn't be good. "Enlighten me then, Malfoy" Draco crossed his arms "No, now let's go" Harry shook his head and remained where he was "Potter" he called warningly but Harry only stuck his tongue out in spite and Draco groaned, at some point he wonders why Harry was both cute and annoying at the same time. "Potter, let's go" he tried again but Harry wouldn't listen to him and stayed in his spot "do I need to carry you like a bloody idiot?" Harry puffed his cheeks in either anger or embarrassment Draco couldn't tell "you are not carrying me and I'm not going anywhere until you either tell me what you meant and or give me a good reason to move" Harry stated crossing his arms.

Draco groaned. He's oblivious but a smartarse when he wants to be.

"Why?" He drawled "Because you said you know the signs, I want to know what you mean and you said you know what I'm going through apparently" he said with arms crossed staring at Draco waiting for an answer and Draco cursed and cursed, great now he was going to have to tell Harry about his creature inheritance. "Merlin's! Fine! Let's go I'm not saying anything here" Harry looked pleased with this and closed the book standing up and setting it on the table and following Draco back to the empty dorm dorm Severus let them use, Harry took a seat on the chair and looked at Draco for answers. "Ugh, you're not going to leave me alone for this are you?" Harry shook his head "nope, start explaining" Draco felt the need to almost strangle Harry but reluctantly began to explain.

"I have a creature inheritance, that's how I knew the signs. And thing is Malfoys don't have creature inheritances but I do through my mother" Harry raised a brow "and which creature are you?" Draco felt like he would regret this "A Veela" Harry came across that creature in the book before Draco found him "Isn't that a female creature?" Draco gave him a look "Hey I came across that as I was reading before you interrupted me" Harry said "Fair enough. Anyway, yes that is typically a female creature in some ways but not exactly. There are male Veelas, me, and there is not many as far as I'm told" He told him "then what creature am I even If I am one?" Draco shrugged "Until you're transformation is done we won't know, or unless we find out by one of the Professors on this since I don't know" Harry wanted to know if he really did have a creature inheritance and with Draco's input maybe he did. It would certainly explain the severity pain he's been experiencing since he turned 13.

"Potter, you need to understand something if you are in a creature inheritance" Harry looked at him with a confused gaze "One with a creature inheritance receives them between 16-17 years old, 13 is not an age you're supposed to be going into one. Yes, I went through mine last year but that's different" Harry was confused on the difference with that "So late teens is when this happens?" He asked "Yes. But how you even have one and are going through one now is beyond me, maybe Snape might know" He muttered the last bit "huh?" Draco waved him off. "First thing tomorrow we're going to see Snape and see if he has anything to tell us. Madam Pomfery clearly knows something about this" Draco paced, why all the sudden does this have him worked up? He doesn't know.
