Seeking Comfort

Chapter 20 - Can't Sleep

Draco POV

"I love you Draco."

"I love you too Jake." I answered and kissed him on the lips.

"Alright! Alright! Break it up!" I heard Seth's voice shout.

Me and Jake have been going out for a while now and the pack are getting bored of Jake spending all of his time with me. But I found it funny.

"Just wait a minute, I'm coming!" He said and turned back to me. "I'll be back before you know it." He reassured.

"Jake, it's only patrolling for 4 hours. I can survive on my own. I have done it for the past 17 years!" I said.

He kissed me again then transformed into his wolf form. He turned back to me and then ran off behind Seth.

"Buzz! Buzz!...Buzz! Buzz!...Buzz! Buzz!...Buzz! Buzz!..."

It was my phone I looked at the name of the person - Edward.

Suddenly I woke up.

My phone was buzzing on my bedside table, and it was indeed Edward calling. I looked at the time - 2:43am.

"Hello?" I mumbled into the phone.

"Draco! Come over! As fast as you can! Harry!" Edward's voice shouted desperately on the other side of the line.

I hopped out of bed no longer feeling sleepy and threw on some trousers and a coat. I sprinted down the stairs and grabbed some Calming Draught and a Dreamless Sleep Potion and apparated to the Cullen's house.

As soon as I got there, I heard screaming coming from the house. I ran into the house and up the stairs to the room from which the sound was coming from. When I opened the door, all the Cullens stood around the bed with Edward on it trying to shake Harry awake.

"Move away from him!" I yelled and Edward got off the bed.

I hoped on and saw Harry wiggling and thrashing about in the bed. I poured the Calming Draught into his wide mouth as he let out another heart-breaking scream causing him to nearly choke but he swallowed, and the potion took immediate effect as Harry's screeching stopped. He also stopped his squirming in the bed. I shook him awake and he slowly opened his eyes.

He looked as though he was about to cry then pulled me into a back breaking hug.

"Thanks Draco," he whispered. "I thought I would never get out of that nightmare! I'm sorry."

"It's fine. It's my fault." I answered.

He was talking about this Friday morning. "I shouldn't have said that. I knew it would hurt you and I still said it. I'm sorry."

"Harry-" Edward began.

"No Edward, I still don't want to talk." Harry interrupted then turned to face me. "Draco, can you apparate us home please."

"I would, Harry," I answered. "But it might harm the baby. So, we will have to take a car. And I didn't bring a car so... yeah."

"Oh," came Harry's quiet reply. "Edward?"

Edward had been deep in thought and looked down at Harry lying on the bed.

"Can you take me and Draco home please?" Harry asked.

"Sure," Edward said. "Let's go."

I helped Harry up to his feet. His clothes were wet most likely with sweat. Something must have happened at school because he has not had a single nightmare (from what I know) in months. I will find out tonight though. He will tell me sooner or later.
