"Wait, wait, wait!" Ron insists, before pushing Draco back a bit "Hermione told me you killed him, the night of the battle!"

The smell of his overdone perfume burns my nose as he slams Draco into the side of a tree.

It hits me at once and I declare "Draco ripped his throat out." they look my way and I remember the full moon over me the day I let Voldemort kill me "During the full moon cycle."

Hermione sighs and states "In a field of dittany." I motion to her as she declares "You've seen his room! He was probably wearing a silver necklace!"

Draco thinks for a moment, before nodding "He was. I remember it." he coddles his face in his hand, before sinking down the tree and asking "What are the odds that he was the bearded man I was with last night?"

We look at him in utter shock.

When we reach the edge of Lyall Lupin's property, an intense smell hits my nose and I ask "What is that?" everyone looks my way in confusion "What can none of you smell that?"

While they shake their head, Draco looks at me, knowingly "Smells like coins, doesn't it?" I nod and he looks towards the house "There's a dead body in that house."

He takes a deep breath, before jumping the gate and walking up to the house. He takes another as he reaches for the door knob.

Suddenly, he asks "What are the odds that I killed Lyall?" I look to him in pity and takes a moment, before opening the door.

As soon as the door opens, the both of us reach for our noses. Bill quickly grabs the both of us and orders the others to go ahead. He pulls us back into the yard and asks Draco "What did you do?"

Draco gives a confused look, before declaring "I have no idea what you're talking about."

"Fuck?" Bill asks and we both give a perplexed look "Without, or with a condom, doesn't matter, Draco! Sweat? You remember sweat, right?"

Draco gives a shocked look, before speaking breathlessly "Oh, shit." he turns to me and lifts my head to examine my teeth "How are feeling?"

I think for a second, before declaring "I feel pretty shitty, but I think it's just because you shot me up, yesterday."

He looks to Bill in aid, who shakes his head, as if to say 'this is all you'. In confusion, I look to Draco, who pulls me towards him and holds onto me "Your head is going to feel like it's going to explode in about an hour, because the smells are so strong. Everything will slowly get louder and you'll hear a woodpecker, miles away."

I pull away from him and gock "Draco, you're talking nonsense, wha-?" his drained look cuts me short and I ask "What?"

He makes it a point to remind me "I love you, okay?" he nods, before ordering "Remember that." he sets his jaw, before declaring "I kissed you, in the bathroom, after I didn't take my potion, last night."

It takes a moment, before I ask "You're saying that..." he gives a sorrowful look and I shake my head "No, no you're joking!"

He gives a nervous laugh, before declaring "I wish I was!" I take a deep breath, before he motions towards the tree in the front yard "Go on, try breaking a limb!"

I roll my eyes, before stepping forward and snapping off a limb, as if it was a twig. When I drop it, I whisper "Oh, shit!" when I turn back to Draco, I hiss "Draco, what the fuck?"

He stares in shock as I step towards him "Harry?" he asks as I continue towards him "I'm so very sorry." When I stride towards him, he reminds "If we fight, this whole villiage will see us!"

When I hold him to me, he tenses for a moment, before I declare "Don't get me wrong, you'll pay for this later. It was an honest mistake." I take in his scent, before pulling away and shoving him back "It's not the worst disease you could have given me."

When he steps forward, I snag the wolfbane potion out of his pocket and take a bit of it, before groaning "That's terrible!"

He thinks for a second, before mocking "What did you expect? Pumkin juice?" I hand him back to him and he reminds me "Madam Pomfrey."

"I remember, you little fucking shit." I gock and he smirks as we start back towards the house "Let's face it, you where a shitty Seeker."

He hums, before stopping at the door "So, you're really fine with this?"

I shrug, before declaring "It's managable, Draco. I never need to transform, if I don't want to, you know?" I think for a moment, before stating "And after we find Teddy, I want to. Just to get it over with." he nods and I remind "And you won't kill me, if you forget your potion."

He sighs, before declaring "I didn't want this for you." I shrug, before he asks "Why aren't you making a big deal out of this?"

"Draco?" I ask and he looks at me nervously "When I was nine, I was locked in a cupboard for a month. I was trapped in the dark almost constantly, except for when my so-called-family opened the door to give me water, food scraps, and change my toilet bucket. I've been chased by the worst fasist, save Hitler, since I was a fetus in my mother's womb." he furrows his brow as he looks to the ground "And yeah, I'm pissed at you." he looks at me questionably, before shrug "It's not even in the top twenty things that have happened to me, so why would I make a big deal about it?"

He stands there for a moment, before insisting, somberly "I'm still sorry that I did it."

With a sigh, I grab his face and kiss him roughly "Think about it like this: we can do whatever the fuck we want during the moon cycle!"
