House unity

Forty-Four

Over the next few days Harry and Draco fell into a routine. They would meet everyday in the library and stroll around the grounds during free period.
But soon enough Harry felt as if being near Draco wasn't enough. He wanted more. He needed more. Harry knew it was the wolf in him wanting it. The nights were becoming painful as his body started preparing for the first moon. He couldn't very well tell Draco what he wanted without hearing that it wouldn't be safe. That they should wait until after the moon. Harry didn't want to wait.

Harry shook off the thought and walked a bit more briskly towards the library. He had to talk to Draco. He had to tell him even if it made Draco uncomfortable. He had to get it off his chest.

Once he reached the library he searched down every shelf  looking for Draco. Harry caught his sent near the potions section and found him with his nose in a book.
Harry smiled to himself and snuck up behind him putting his arms around Draco's waist.

Harry rested his chin on Draco's shoulder and smiled.  "What are you reading today?"

"Wolfsbane potion ingredients. We're going to need to know just how to make this." He answered not looking up.

"As much as I agree with you I need to have a serious conversation with you." Harry whispered

"Hmm? About?" Draco shut the book and looked at Harry

"Urges. I'm um having a lot of them the closer to the moon the worse it gets."

"Shall we take a walk?" Draco asked searching Harry's face for any hints.

"It would probably be best."  Harry nodded

"I'll go check this out and meet you at the door." Draco pecked Harry's cheek.

Harry nodded and reluctantly let go of him.

Harry watched as Draco walked towards the desk at the center of the library. 

Harry grinned to himself and started towards the door.

It's now or never. I just hope he'll understand and doesn't hate me for it.
