Classes ended and Draco and Harry now were at the Great Hall waiting for the couples to show at the entrance. First they saw Ron Blaise and Pansy. They sat next to them as Harry asked where Hermione was. She was at the library waiting for Ginny, Neville and Luna.
"What's wrong mate?"-Ron asked as he filled his plate with chicken nuggets.
"We will wait for Hermione to come, and we will tell you!"-Draco said and saved the last chicken nugget from Rons claws.
"Dats' mine!"-Ron said mouthful but Draco just smirked at him playfully.
"Wait We? You mean you and Harry?"-Blaise said and looked at Pansy.
"Wait are you two dating? And you didn't tell me anything? Draco you promised to tell me everything!"-Pansy said but was cut of by a big NO that came from both guys.
It didn't take long and Hermione and others showed. They sat around and said hello to everyone. It was noticeable that something was stirring in there.
"Okay so we got detention tonight!"-Harry started and all the other went silent around the table except Draco who found time to blame Harry for it.
"Again mate?"-Ron said and looked like someone had just said the lamest joke.-"You guys need to sort your priorities!"
"Anyway we will be with Hagrid at the Dark Forest, wish us luck and pray for Draco's remainings to be found in the morning!"-Harry said, but Draco elbowed him in the ribs.
"Or that the 'Boy who lived twice' will live Thrice!"-Draco said but jumped by a sharp pain in his arm!-"Did you just pinch me Potter?"-The blonde said but Harry just stuck his tongue out at him.
"I think they need to grow up!"-Neville said as he swallowed a piece of pudding.
Then the other part of the dinner was silent, everyone would tell something that happened that day, they would talk about how much they hatted the seventh year quidditch players from the last match between Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw.
The time walked by and now was time for detention! Hagrid would be waiting them at the hut. The duo rushed through the stairs like they would be racing, climbed the hill that would take them to Hagrid, and when they arrived they were both breathing heavily and their legs were giving out.
"I won!"-Harry said and punched Draco lightly on the arm.
"That was cheating! I started later than you!"-Draco complained.
But the problem was cut by Hagrid opening the door.
" ello' boys! Najs to see ya' again! Who won' this ta'im?"-Hagrid asked as both guys went inside.
"Harry cheated!"-Draco said as Fangs came close to him wanting some pat-pat's.
"Suer he di'd!"-Hagrid joked.-"Ar' u read'y to gow now?"
"Yeah what will we be doing?"-Harry said.
"Nothing 'Arry only wa'ch mej as A' feed som' babies..."-Hagrid said and they both sighted in release.
They took Fangs and some bags that were full of some squashy food.-"Is this mudd?"-Draco said a little disgusted.
"Na'w! Th'ts food for meh' babies!"-The huge hairy Hagrid said.
They walked for a while and the lighters were somehow lowering their light. Harry and Draco now were just staying close. It was December, it was minus 10 degrees in the forest. They cast some warming spells but none of them worked in that much cold. Fangs started howling and Hagrid said something under his teeth.
"Whats wrong Hagrid?"-Draco asked him, a little scared.
"A' will ask ya' to sta'y herr for a fe'w mih'nuts ! Don't Ya move!"-Hagrid said a little calmer. And vanished into the dark.
"Okay, that was it we are going to die! Here alone! In the woods! And it's all your fault Potter!"-Draco said as he almost hug the nearest tree.
"If you hadn't just lost the sense of time and got us late, we wouldn't have been here in the first place."-Harry said also scared.
"Piss off Potter!"
"Shove off Malfoy!"
Something in the background moved. And Draco sensed it.
"What was that!"-Draco said hugging Harry's arm.
"I don't know! But promise you won't run like the other time!"-Harry said.
"I was eleven! For God's sake get over it! I won't run. I am a grown up man already!"-Draco said, pulling out his wand to make more light.
"Yea, in which world?"-Harry mocked.
The movements became harder and louder!
"Who is there!"-Draco yelled pointing the want at him.
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHH!"-they both screamed at the thing and were very disappointed finding out it was Fangs. But in his necklace was a letter tugged in it. Harry saw it. That wasn't a good thing!
"Open it Harry!"-Draco said looking at the letter.
I am watching you both!
Okay, they were internally screaming, and their faces could tell enough.
"Who wrote this! Guys, its no time for pranks!"-Harry yelled at no one.
"Lumos Maxima!"-The place got lighter up by the spell Draco cast.-"Who ever it was, it's gone now!"
"Lets find Hagrid maybe he knows more!"-Harry supposed.
After a short walk filled with a lot of tense and thoughts, they decided to go back. It had been almost half an hour since they had started walking and one hour since Hagrid left them.
"So we are officially lost!"-Harry said.-"Thanks to our little baby Malfoy here!"
"It was not my idea to move, he said to wait! Who do you even listen!"
"We just got threatened with life, Draco. I was not going to stay there and do nothing. Stop being a holdback and help me find a way back."
"I am not a...Potter so fuck of and just yell someone's name!"
"Oh yeah how didn't i think about it?!"-Harry said with irony.
"This damaged you brain! I am cold Harry can we just sit down here and cast some protective spells and just sleep! I am exhausted and cold..."
"Okay wait I will cast some spells around us. Selvia Hexa, Muffliato, Protego Maxima! And last but not the least Warming spells! What can we do about the dog? He left again!"-Harry ended and Draco just stared he was freezing and just gave a soft 'Nothing' that looked more like a begging to stay near him. Was he hexed or something.
"Oh my God Draco! Are you alright?"-Harry's face was full of pure concern and love.-"Oh Merlin you are freezing! But I already cast spells for that!"
"Its it! That thing that s-sent the l-letter! Theymust h-have hex m-me! Sorry Harry!"-Draco said and Harry pulled him close into a hug he bowed and laid in the ground with him. They were safe for now and Draco was warming by Harry's body warm. Harry pulled off his jumper and gave it to Draco it fitted perfectly as if it was made for him!
"T-thanks Harry!"
"Shhhh just sleep!"
Bonus——
"I did as you asked !I cast the spell on Draco without him noticing! They are alone in the woods now! Just as you wished for. What do I do now?"-Hagrid said to a hooded figure.
"Now call Fangs for me! We have a message to deliver!"-The hooded figure said and lowered its head.
"Why are you doing this?"-Hagrid asked.
"For loves sake Hagrid for loves sake..."-The figure pulled out its wand.-" Sorry Hagrid...Obliviate!"
