This Heavenly Hell (boyxboy) (drarry) (Book 3 of Roomates)

Ten

                  

It was Christmas time and they were planning on having a small dinner. No one was invited to the Potter home, only the occupants. Harry's health had declined some which worried everyone especially Scorpius. He had tried to convince his pa to let him give his kidney but Harry refused. That upset Scorpius and he rushed off to the 'mystery girl' as Draco called it.

            "D-Draco?" Harry mumbled from his bed. He had resided in his bed nowadays. Draco had to hire a specialist to take care of Harry. He wasn't able to do things like work Harry's muscles or administer him the chemo which he got at home. But Draco did other things like wash and feed him to the best of his ability.

            "Yes love?" Draco sat on the edge of the bed and looked at his frail husband.

            "W-what did you get the k-kids?" He asked and Draco rubbed Harry's skinny arm.

            "I got them loads of things. Like I got them each a new laptop, Scorpius a new skateboard, Lily a pair of earrings." Draco told him. "Then from you, you gave Lily ring. It's so pretty and I know she'd love it. It's engraved."

            "What does it say?" Harry asked and Draco smiled.

            "It says LNP and then 'my everything'." He told Harry who smiled.

            "And Scorp?"

            "Permission to give you his kidney." Draco joked but Harry went crazy.

            "Draco, n-no we-" He started and tried to get up.

            "Hey hey easy there. I was only kidding. Don't get yourself worked up." He assured and then caressed Harry's face.  "You gave him a watch. It's also engraved...like the one I got you."
             "What does i-it say?" He asked.

            "SHP and then his zodiac symbol." He told Harry.

            "That's lovely."  Harry grinned and Draco leaned down. He kissed Harry's lips gently then then pulled away to rub their noses together.

            "How are you feeling today?"  He asked softly.

            "Awful." Harry admitted. Draco frowned and got into bed with Harry. He wrapped his arms around Harry kissing his neck gently.

            "I'm sorry." Draco said sincerely.  "What can I do?" He asked and Harry started to cry. Draco rolled him over and let him cry into his chest. "Shh. Shh. Shh." Draco hushed. "Don't cry, it's gonna get better. It always does."

            "D-Draco." Harry whimpered sobs racking his body.

            "Yes baby? I'm here. It's okay."

            "P-please d-don't let me d-die." Harry pleaded. "I-I'm scared." Draco grip tightened on Harry.

            "I'd never let that happened Harry." Draco promised. "I'm not gonna let you die."  Harry cried as Draco soothed him.

            "I-I don't w-want to d-die." Harry told Draco in a miserable whimper.

            "I don't want you to die either." Draco buried his nose into Harry's neck. He hugged Harry until the frailer man started to calm down. The crying led to a lot of exhaustion and he surrendered to sleep. Draco stayed with Harry for a little while longer. Harry's heartbeat was against his and it was great feeling. He never wanted the beating to stop. He felt Harry's breathing and was happy. It was the best feeling. He leaned in and kissed Harry's cheek. "I won't let you die my angel. I'll do whatever it takes to keep you breathing."
