As soon as Harry got home, he fire called all his friends along with Sirius and Remus to inform them about Draco's recovery. He was smiling as he finished up the calls. He had intentionally not called Narcissa, letting her have a surprise.

He quickly freshened up and sat down on their bed and opened the locket once more.

He was sitting in their living room, and he realised that he wasn't inside Draco's mind because Draco was sitting infront of him. This was getting weird, in all the previous memories he had seen them through Draco's eyes but .........this was more like seeing a memory through a pensieve. Undaunted, he waited for Draco to say or do something.

Draco looked right into Harry's eyes, as if he knew that Harry was going to sitting in that very chair. He took a deep breath, before giving Harry a charming smile.

"Okay this is a bit weird, talking to thin air but I know you would be sitting just there, so here goes." He shrugged and then started his speech.

"Hey, love. I have wanted to give this to you quite a long time ago, but every time I just backed up. But not this time, I thought this gift would be something you would cherish for the rest of your life. I wanted to give you a part of me, the part that no-one except myself knew of." He gave Harry another smile, before continuing, " I don't know when you are going to watch this, I mean, all the memories were quite long so I'm guessing it's almost a week after our anniversary. Let me guess, it's late evening, I'm yet again working late and here you are watching me."

Draco was infact quite right, except he wasn't working but he very well was late. A single tear rolled down his right eye, and Harry saw the whole living room blur, but the voice, it was clear as ever.

"Don't worry much, I'll be back before you know it. I'm sure, I'm missing you as well. Don't scold me for being late, please. Not today, okay love?"

Harry thought his heart couldn't get more broken, guess that wasn't true at all. He could physically feel his heart cracking as Draco uttered those words. Looking into those liquid eyes, was painful in itself. He had last seen those when the Bulger hit him up and all the light went out.

"I love you so so much, love. I have some good news for you. I had to restrain myself from telling you this, I can't wait anymore. Ask me about it as soon as I get home. I will always love you, Harry Potter. Till the very end."

Harry was now full-on sobbing, thick tears rolling down his cheeks, he wanted his Angel back, he can't do this anymore. HE WANTED HIS ANGEL BACK, NEXT TO HIM.

He screamed in frustration, he tugged upon his hair, taking out some strands of hair in the process. He got up and in a fit of rage threw a glass vase, out of the window. His magic was also getting uncontrollable, it was zapping in all directions, Harry could feel it trying to break through him but he didn't even care anymore. He knew his magic had the power to kill him but he couldn't be bothered ENOUGH to control it. He kept breaking whatever he got in his hands, while his magic broke each and every other window in the whole house, one by one.

After a good fifteen minutes of breaking things and thrashing the whole house, the wards chimed up, warning Harry about his guests coming in. He looked around him, well there wasn't much he could do now. So he didn't even try making the house presentable. He just repaired all the windows back, with one wave of his hand.  It's better than nothing, he thought, just as Ron and Hermione came in.

"Hey Har- What happened here?!" Her eyes became wide as she took in the condition of the whole room, then lunged forward and crushed Harry in a tight embrace. "Harry...... It will be fine, you gotta have faith in Draco. He will come back soon."

Harry was too shocked to move at first but slowly he returned her hug, while Ron silently began to repair all the stuff. After several moments, they broke apart. Hermoine gave him a small smile before they both joined Ron repair the other stuff.

It took almost an hour to get everything back in its place and the house resembled it's former condition once again. They sat down, sipping tea which Kreacher had presented them with.

"I've decided"

"Uh okay." Ron replied, confusion etched on his face.

"I'm gonna sue the Ministry. And I'm gonna start by filing a report first thing tomorrow morning. Tell me what I need to do."

" That's great, Haz. You don't need to worry about filing the case, you just plan out the finer points of the case. Or hire a lawyer of your choice. I'll take care of the rest." Hermoine looked pleased with Harry's decision.

They didn't talk much about that, that evening. Ron and Hermione just updated him on the lastest news, trying to be normal with him. They, then, enjoyed the meal Hermoine had made and brought for them.

Before leaving, Harry asked Ron, " Mate, I don't think I'll be able to go tomorrow morning to the hospital, I need to look up Dray's law books to ready myself up. Do you think you could be with him, till I get there? Please"

"Sure mate. You don't need to ask that. I would be there, before Narcissa leaves and won't leave until you get there. I didn't have a heart to heart with ferret, since a long time." He said with a wink.

After the couple left, Harry gathered up the courage and went inside Draco's study for the first time since that day. It had the smell of stale air, not being used for more than two weeks. He forced himself to not think of all their memories in that room together, collecting the books he needed and walking back to his bedroom.
