Harry was beyond excited. The summer had been so long. He was so skinny from the lack of food they fed him. His uncle locked his owl in the cage for the whole summer.
Harry hadn't been able to talk to anyone. Not Hermione, not Ron, not Hagrid, and not Draco. He had gotten very depressed being locked in his room every day and doing chores around the house for so long. He couldn't wait to go back to Hogwarts.

"I know what your going to ask me Harry and no, I don't know where he is."
"Blaise you have to know something."
"I wish I did I've been writing to him but no response."
Blaise wasn't saying the truth. Harry could see through him. He was shaky and looked like he was hiding something. He knew something but was too afraid to speak. Someone was threatening him.
"Blaise I'm his boyfriend. Don't you think I have the right to know something?"
Blaise gazed down. Looking nervous. Debating on weather he had the nerve say anything.
In a very quiet voice he whispered.
"He's safe...."
Harry looked down puzzled.
"Safe? Wait what that does that mean? BLAISE?"
Blaise had already walked away.
Harry was heartbroken in not seeing Draco on the train, or class, or anywhere else.
Days passed, then weeks, then months and nothing. Harry had sent so many letter but Hedwig always came back with the letters he had sent. It was now October and still no news from Draco.
"Harry you need to calm down."
"How can i be calm right now?"
"I haven't seen Draco since last year and no one is telling me where he is."
"I'm sorry Harry."
"Hermione i need to see him. I can't sleep. I can't eat. I can't pay attention in class cause my nerves are so bad. I'm going insane. I have to see him. Just to know he's okay."
"How do you plan to do that? First of all you don't know where he is and second of all there's no way out of Hogwarts."
"I know the last place he's been, which was Malfoy manner. Ron you know how to travel through floo powder right? We did it in second year."
"Well yeah but Harry all the chimneys are locked by Umbridge. There's no way your getting out through there."
"The one in her office isn't."
"Harry this is too dangerous. If you think Umbridge won't crucio you for this your wrong. She's not afraid to torture every student at Hogwarts if she has to. We can't let you do this."
"I'm going to do it with or without your help. I probably have a better chance with you guys by my side but if not I'm willing to take that risk."
Ron and Hermione looked at each other with concern. Then they both sighed.
"We will help you. I'm sure George and Fred can do one of their shenanigans to distract the whole school."
"Do you really think they can do that?"
"You act like you don't know them."
"Yeah that's true."
"Me and Ron will keep an eye on her office so you can get out. Get out of Hogwarts through any chimney. DO NOT USE THE ONE IN MALFOY MANNER. For all you know that one could be locked too or they could be waiting to you Harry....."
"What do you mean?"
"Think about it. Lucius probably knows your dating. He probably used Draco as bait to lore you in."
"Blaise said he was safe."
"Whatever it is don't risk it. You can Apparate from wherever you are to Malfoy manner. We can't buy you a lot of time so please for everyone's sakes don't be out for longer than 20 minutes. I know that isn't much but Harry it's the best we can do. Find Draco, know if he's okay, and If you can get him out. Have your wand ready and Harry please be careful."
"I will. I promise."
_______________________________
Harry was just outside the gates of Malfoy manner. He couldn't apparate inside because there was a force field guarding the place. Harry didn't know what to do at this point. He had no way to get in. His wand was useless at this point if he couldn't cast a spell anywhere near the place.
He started to panic. He had wasted so much time already. He had maybe 10 minutes to find Draco and he was locked out. The thought of not seeing Draco made Harry hurt. He couldn't take any longer without knowing anything from the man he loved. He was so desperate that he started to call out for his name in hope he could hear him.
"DRACOOOOOO. DRACO. DRACO."
He screamed and he screamed for so long that he started loosing his voice. His whole mouth felt dry and his chest was in pain.
"DRACOOOOO."
"DRACO PLEASE. I NEED YOU."
Right when he was about to give up he saw a man walk towards him from the other side of the gate. He had blonde hair and a black elegant robe. It was Lucuis Malfoy.
"Stop your screams."
Harry was so pissed off.
Harry POV
How dare this piece of shit tell me to not scream.
Harry looked at him with the most threatening gaze.
"Where is he?"
"He doesn't want to talk to you."
"That's such bullshit. DRACO. DRACOOO."
"HE ISN'T HERE. Now I suggest you walk away before you regret it."
"Go right ahead. Torture me, hurt me, kill me. I don't care. I'm not afraid of you Lucuis. I know exactly what type of man you are. A coward who let his own son down to keep hurting himself and the family he used to have. You had it all Lucuis. A wife that loved you and a son who at least hadn't lost his respect for you yet."
"DONT YOU DARE TALK ABOUT MY WIFE LIKE THAT. You listen boy. And you listen good. If I ever see you again around here I will kill you. You know exactly who I am. You know what power I posses."
Harry was ready to keep fighting. He wasn't going to give up that easily but time was running short. It didn't matter what Lucuis said. He needed to get back. He couldn't let his friends get hurt by staying longer. He wasn't going to get anywhere.
So he left. With all the pain in his chest. He walked away.
Harry's POV
I'm not giving up on you Draco. I'll be back. I promise I won't let them take you away from me.
