The Vampire And Genderfluid Mate {Drarry}

Chapter Seventeen

***EDITED!***

*Harry's P.O.V.*

The next day it is the Gryffindor and Slytherin in defense. We walked in and all the tables are pushed back and a wardrobe is in the middle of the room. Though it's obviously not normal. Besides the fact it's shaking. I mean this is a magic school nothings normal.

"Hello, class I am Professor Lupin. Now can anyone tell me what a boggart is." Professor Lupin said.

Hermione who appeared out of nowhere said, "a boggart is a creature that takes shape in any form that the person fears. And lives in dark places. No one knows the original form since it takes different forms." 

"Where did she come from?" Ron whispered.

"You should know Ron. When a mommy and a daddy love each other-" 

He cut me off and said, "you know what I mean." 

And I shrugged. 

"Now class the spell to stop the boggart is Riddikulus." He said.

He then had us say it and line up. And Draco was all like, "this class is ridiculous." So I lightly hit him.

I did not really pay much attention to everyone but Ron's was a spider and he made it wear roller skates. Neville was Snape and he made him wear his grandmother's outfit. Which lit me say I will never be able to look at Snape with a straight face again. 

Then when I walked up I thought of Voldemort but he was never that scary. Plus I defeated him three times now. Once as a baby. But then I thought of how I felt with the dementor. So then there it was in all its glory. A dementor. 

I immediately felt the effects as Draco grabbed me from behind and Lupin stepped in front of me and the dementor turned into a floating white orb. Which he turned into a balloon and put it in the wardrobe. 

"Alright, class dismissed. Harry, please stay for a bit." He said.  

Draco told me he will wait out side and walked out after glaring at Lupin. 

"I did not expect a dementor. I thought you would have had the Dark Lord or something." Professor Lupin said.

"I thought of him at first. But the dementor was scarier." I said looking at the wardrobe.

"That's good Harry. Dementors are fear themselves. So you fear nothing but fear itself. If you want I can teach you to chase one away." Lupin said. 

"Really. Thanks, professor but. I don't think Draco would like that." I said looking down.

He nodded and said. "You do have your mother's eyes. I was a friend of your father's. He was a great man." 

I looked up at him and said, "I get that a lot. Um. I will think about your offer. See you tomorrow professor." 

He said bye and I walked out.

At the end of the day, we went back to our common room but there is a crowd. "What's going on?" I asked Draco staying close to me.

"The Fat Lady  - she's gone!" someone told them.

Someone then said they found her so we followed him and she is hiding behind a cow.
Dumbledore put the school on lock down and we all slept in the great hall.

*Draco's P.O.V.*

The next day is our first day of Care of Magical Creatures and I'm walking with the golden trio. I am tossing an apple from hand to hand.

"I wander what Hagrid has for us today?" Ron said. 

When we got to his hut Hagrid led us little ways into the forbidden forest and he told us to turn to a page. "And how do you expect us to do that?" I asked.

"Well, you stroke the spine o' course." He said.

"You stroke the spine of course," I said sarcastically.

"Draco, be nice," Harry scolded and done as Hagrid instructed. I did and opened the book. 

Hagrid then led a bird horse up and said, "this is a hippogriff. They are proud creatures and if you insult them that would be the last thing you do. Now, who would like to come up and pet him?" 

We all stepped back except for Harry.

"Ahh, Harry thanks for volunteering. Come on." Hagrid said.

He looked around and I smiled. He slowly walked up and Hagrid said, "okay, now bow." 

Harry slowly bowed not taking his eyes off the hippogriff. Since the hippogriff did nothing, Hagrid told Harry to get back but he just bowed lower and looked down. It bowed back and Harry went up to pet it. He looked back at us smiling. 

Well, at least he is enjoying himself, I thought.

"Great now you can ride him," Hagrid said.

He helped Harry on and I felt some fear. Harry cling onto the bird horse as it ran at us and lifted itself into the air. 

"Well, that looks fun," Ron said.
