Draco's POV
-0-0-00--00-00-0-0-

I'm really worried about Harry. Whenever Vernon even looks at him, he gets scared. I try calming him down, and it helps a bit. He shakes horribly, and gets hot. He tells me that he gets a dry throat and feels restless when he gets nervous or scared.
Right now, I have my arm wrapped securely around his shoulders, and his head is pressed to my shoulder. We were watching a movie with how family and Vernon, and Harry kept gulping. I could feel him slightly trembling.
I kissed his head, getting a grunt from Vernon. Harry gulped again, and I could feel the lump going down his throat against my skin. I pet his hair, and he wrapped an arm over my side. After a few minutes, I felt his breath even out and he fell asleep. I ran my hand up and down his side, trying to smooth him a little.
After a half hour, I kissed his head gently. He stirred, and shifted a bit.
"Hey Harry," I said softly. He hummed at me. "If you don't get up you won't be able to sleep tonight," I told him. He nodded and got up, stretching.
"Can I talk to you real quick? Before you ask I'm not breaking up with you," I said as I saw fear in his eyes. He nodded, and we went up to his room. I sat him down in the desk chair, and I sat on the bed.
"Harry," I started, and took his hands in mine. "What's wrong." I half asked/demanded. He furrowed his eyebrows.
"What do you mean, Draco?" He asked.
"When you get nervous or scared you shake horribly and get visibly hot. I just want to know if you're okay... Because if you feel bad in any way, I want you to tell me. You know you can tell me anything, right?" I asked him. He nodded.
"I know." He said. He exhaled. "I don't know what's wrong. It just happens I guess." He told me.
"Well... I don't know how to help except for you to go to a healer." I told him.
"We only have doctors here." He said. I nodded.
"If you feel like that again, please promise me you'll tell me. I'll help you. I promise," I told him sincerely. He nodded.
"Okay. If it makes you feel any better, I'll ask Aunt Petunia if I can go to see a doctor. Can you come with?" He asked. I nodded, and leaned in to kiss his cheek.
"Whatever you need, baby." I told him. He smiled weakly and kissed me.
"Thank you," he said.
"No problem," I told him, and hugged him.
"Let's go." He said. I followed him down the stairs, and we went to Petunia.
After we explained everything to her, she nodded. She grabbed what Harry called a granola bar, and followed us to the car.
"Where are you guys going?" Vernon boomed as he walked in. Harry started shaking again. I nudged Petunia softly, and nodded to Harry. She saw how he was shaking.
"Out." I said.
"Who asked you?" He sneered at me.
"Who asked you to ask where we were going?" I said right back. He grimaced at me, and walked away. Petunia rolled her eyes and we went to the car.
We sat in the back, and I snuggled Harry up to my side. We talked about random stuff, and told her about the guy from durmstrang, which she chuckled at. Then that Stephanie girl who hit on Harry, which she laughed loudly at.
We got to a building, and Harry held my hand tighter as we walked in. We sat down in a seating area while Petunia went up, and I wrapped my arm around his shoulders.
"It will be okay. Whatever happens, I'll be right here." I told him and kissed his head.
"Promise?" He asked.
"I promise, sweetheart." He smiled widely at the name, and snuggled up to me closer. We got odd looks from people, but I didn't care.
"Harry Potter?" A receptionist called out. He unraveled himself from my protective grip on him, and walked with a doctor. Petunia came back and sat down across from me.
"Do you think he's okay?" I asked her.
"I'm sure it's not a fatal problem." She said, and smiled a bit at me. I grinned, and slumped in the chair.
After 10 minutes, I got restless. "What's taking so long?" I asked as I moved into another position.
"These things take time, Draco. They have to run tests to see what's wrong." She told me. I nodded and sat back down. I watched some tv for a little while longer.
"Harry Potter's family?" A man called. I shot up and ran over. Petunia followed.
"What's your relation with Mr. Potter?" He asked me.
"He's my boyfriend." I said and chewed on my lip.
"Okay, and your relation?" He asked Petunia.
"Aunt and legal guardian." He told him. He nodded and led us to a room. He opened the door, and I saw Harry looking a little sad.
I ran over and sat by him. "What's wrong?" I asked. No response. "Babe?"
"Everyone here now?" The doctor asked. I nodded and put an arm around Harry. He hugged me tight.
"Well, I've ran tests, and learned... that Harry has GAD." He said. I furrowed my eyebrows. Petunia let a little gasp up from her lips.
"Are there any events that could have made him scared or nervous?" He asked. Petunia nodded.
"And what were they?" He asked. Petunia gulped, but told him about Vernon. "I'm so sorry.... But it appears that that is what caused this, and the things at school you wish not to share."
Harry breathed out, and slumped in my shoulder.
"What's GAD?" I asked.
"It's a anxiety disorder. He clearly follows all the symptoms of it. I have this medication for him. I'll give him a doctors note for school so he can bring as much as he needs." He said as he wrote something down and gave it to Petunia. "Here are the pills. Twice a day. Once when he wakes up, once before bed. If he has a sudden panic attack, he can take one to calm him down." He said as he gave a box, which contained many yellow containers to Petunia. We nodded, and left the room.
Once we got home, I took the pills and brought Harry up to his room.
"Harry," I said and hugged him as I kicked the door to close. "I'll be right here, by your side. I'll never leave you. I promise. I love you so much. We'll get through this together, okay? I'll help you." I told him. He kissed me gently.
"Thank you baby," he said. I smiled and hugged him even more. "I love you,"
"I love you way more than you could ever imagine." I told him.
He sat us down on the bed, but sighed and got up. He went out of the room, and came back with a glass of water. He put a pill in his mouth, and chugged down the water.
"Hope you aren't uncomfortable watching me do that," he said as he took his shirt off.
"Of course not." I told him as I took off my clothes. He got into his boxers and climbed into bed. I hugged him to my chest, one had on his head and the other wrapped around his waist.
"I love you," he said as he buried his head in my shoulder.
"I love you too. I always will." I told him, before drifting into sleep.
-----------------------------
Wasn't really necessary but I had to include Harry's anxiety. Because let's face it.

I think that I one of us came from an abusive household them dropped into a school where you almost die every 16 minutes and have to kill a psychopath, you'd probably get Anxiety too.

Sooo yeah

See you later
