Okay , so this Drarry is inspired by a pin I saw for how to help someone who's having a panic attack. Koooollll.

Draco Malfoy had  already envied Harry Potter. His life full of the things he lacked , love and friends. True friends , not just comrades that followed your  every demand like minions. And lately , to add to his flawless life , Harry was able to leave class immediately with the lifting of his arm into the air. 

Harry didn't use this mysterious privilege that was at obligation of all the teachers every class , from what Draco had heard , but in most of the classes that Harry had with Draco , he would raise his hand and be dismissed with the nod of the professor's head,

Draco always watched in envy as Harry sped out of the class as if the matter were extremely urgent.

Draco sat in professor Snape's class , his cheek resting on his hand and he twiddled his quill around in complete boredom. He glanced over at Harry , who was in the second row about four desks down. He was , for once , sitting straight up , his eyes eerily blank. 

Harry's messy , dark locks fell around his forehead in a perfect symphony of disaster , his clear , green eyes fixed on nothing in particular. Draco couldn't seem to pull his eyes away from the majestic sight that was Harry Potter.

Harry glanced over at Draco and he quickly looked away , almost blushing at the fact that Harry had almost caught him. When Harry was looking away again , Draco lazily let his eyes drift back onto Harry.

This time , Harry's eyes couldn't stop moving , looking at seemingly everything but Draco. His face was extremely red. His hand then shot up into the air.

Draco watched as Professor Snape discreetly nodded to Harry . Harry then quickly stood , glanced back at Draco , and sped out of the class.

Five minutes had passed and Potter still hadn't returned from his trip. Draco had to find out what was up. " Professor." Draco said , raising a pale hand. " Yes , Draco." Snape hissed , his eyes trailing down to Draco's eye level. " May I go to the lavatories? It's an emergency." Sniggers filled the room and his cheeks went red. " As you wish , Malfoy." Snape sighed. And Draco sped out of the class , grinning.

His breath was quick , filled with the anticipation of finding out what Potter was up to. He then walked into the boy's bathrooms , where he knew he'd be. He quietly entered , and upon entering heard a faint sound.

Sharp , jagged breaths filled the space.
Draco looked around the bathroom and saw Harry's feet at the fourth stall. He gently pushed the door opened to see Harry Potter sitting at the corner of the stall , hyperventilating and running his hands through his already-messy locks. He barely realized Draco entering.

Draco placed himself beside Harry. Harry then looked over at Draco with but pure fright in his pretty green eyes. Vulnerable fright. It was the first time he had seen the chosen one in such a defenseless state , he'd always seemed so brave and alert. Draco wiped away tears from Harry's cheeks with his thumb. They sat there for a moment , nothing but Harry's quick , hard breaths filling the air.

Draco then lifted Harry onto his lap in a cradling sort of position after much effort , due to Harry's constant pushing and him away . His hands pushed around everywhere , coming into contact with Draco's cheek a few times. But , he got him on and wrapped his arms around Harry.

He then began whispering soft things to Harry. " Everything is okay... alright?" He kept repeating. " It's alright." He stroked the tips of Harry's hair, which felt silkier than he could've imagined.

Harry gradually began to calm down , but his cheeks remained rosy. " Are you alright?" Draco asked. He never thought he'd be asking Harry out of all people that question.

Harry nodded. He then slid off of Draco's lap. " Thank you.."'Harry said , sliding his glasses back up his nose. His ears and cheeks were blazing. " It's - fine... What happened?" Draco asked. Harry looked back up into Draco's eyes , his green eyes glassy. Tears then began to fall onto Harry's cheeks , sliding down to his chin.

Draco kept his eyes locked on Harry's. " Panic attack." " What?" Harry looked back down. " It's ... it's a muggle thing I guess. Where I'm nervous all the time ... and certain... things..." " What things?" " Certain situations... p-people- Draco?" Harry paused , his eyes trailing down Draco , then to the floor where they remained.

" Yeah?" " Draco- you make me nervous."  Draco's heart skipped a beat As his  eyes fixated on Harry , shocked .  " Wha-why?" He asked . ( as if he hadn't been antagonizing him for how ever many years straight.) 

Harry paused and left the air empty a couple of beats. He then whispered very shallowly. " Because I like you."
