Today was the day of Harry’s date with Dean, he was over the moon to be going out with someone who didn’t hate him. It was a warm September day so Harry decided to wear a short-sleeved burgundy button-up dress shirt and black skinny jeans with his Slytherin green Converse (Harry had a pair of Converse with every house color). Harry walked out into the common room to see a certain blonde fuming with anger before running up the stairs to the boy’s dormitory, Draco had not come to their room last night even though all of his things were already in their places so Harry had just assumed Malfoy had put everything away when Harry was not there. Harry met up with Ron and Hermione in the hallway and they walked him to Hogsmead for his date. All three of them saw Dean waiting by a bench in similar attire to Harry, Harry escorts waved goodbye and left the two of them to their business. Harry and Dean greeted each other with a smile and were off to The Three Broomsticks. The pair of boys had a fantastic time with each other, they went to Honeydukes and walked around the small town chatting and sharing stories. Harry had a wonderful time with Dean and so Harry asked for a second date.
“Do you want a second date?” Harry asked nervously, looking at the ground.
“Let's find out,” Dean said while pulling Harry in for a passionate kiss.
But little did the kissing pair know that Draco Malfoy had followed them around their whole date and when he saw Harry embrace Dean his heart broke again as if that was even possible. He stalked back to the castle with tears streaming down his pale face. Once he got to his shared room he laid on his bed and didn’t move until morning.
Harry on the other hand was still kissing Dean at the entrance to the castle. Once they finally split up Harry looked at Dean smiling before dropping his expression and whispering “Boyfriends?”
“Yes,” Dean said beaming before pulling Harry into another kiss.
After saying goodbye to his boyfriend Harry noticed that the door to his room with Malfoy was cracked open so he slowly approached and kicked the door open to see Malfoy laying on his bed crying.
“Malf-” Harry started to talk.
*Trigger Warning, Self-Harm*
“No, Potter I’m not explaining myself to you” Malfoy snapped before storming into the bathroom. It had been over an hour since Malfoy went into the bathroom so Harry just assumed he was just taking a long shower. Harry was about to go to sleep when he saw something red seep out from the crack under the bathroom door. Oblivious and curious Harry made his way to the door when he tried opening it, the door was unlocked so he just stepped in and saw the boy no one knew he loved almost submerged in blood-red water without of second though he pulled him out of the water and saw a bloody razor blade fall from the unconscious boy’s hand. He saw tiny slits running up both his arms and legs, so without a word he cast a weight lifting charm on Malfoy and walked the boy through the empty hallways to the hospital wing. He didn't say a word to Poppy, he just left the boy there and gave her a slight nod before leaving for his dorm once again.
*End of Self Harm*
That night Harry would Have an of the worst nightmares he had ever experienced.
“I can touch you now,” the voice shivered through his spine as he was clamped between Marvolo Riddle’s grave and Voldemort's cold dead hand. His scar seared with a writhing pain he had never felt before. His body felt cold and stiff as he looked up at the snake pupils that appeared on the man who killed his only family. He looked away as quickly as he could but not quick enough. His scar started to burn, even more, he screamed loud enough that he was sure that the lifeless body of Cedric Digory that lay before him could hear it. Wormtail snapped his head over the writhing boy, he held his wand to Harry's scar and whispered something he couldn't hear. Soon after a bright green skull with a snake slithering out of its mouth appeared in the sky. Harry screamed.
He shot up in his bed drenched in sweat and tangles in his sheets. His heavy breathing caught up to him after about 15 minutes of just sitting in his bed his mind slowed as if trying to wrap itself around what had just happened. The scared boy got out of his bed and started pacing wall to wall in his room, all the while whispering to himself “It's not real, It's not real, It's not real” after calming himself down, he went to the shower and turned the water to scalding hot. As it ran down his body he could feel the stress and tension he had been holding onto the last few days just melt away.The next morning he rushed into the common room trying to forget what happened last night with Draco and his nightmare. He saw Dean standing in the common room so he bolted over to his boyfriend and jumped into his arms.
“Harry, what's wrong?” Dean questioned.
“I-I found Draco cutting himself last night. I was s-scared so I took him to the hospital wing. T-Then I had a nightmare about- h-h-him a-and what happened in fourth-year w-when he came b-b-back.” Harry said sobbing into the comforting boy’s shoulder.
“It's okay Harry,” Dean said in a soothing voice. Ron and Hermione came down from their dorms to see their best friend sobbing, they both ran over to Dean and asked him what happened. Harry switched to crying on Hermione’s shoulder as Dean explained what happened to the redhead and curly-haired Gryffindors.
“Oh, Harry” Hermione said while rubbing circles on his back trying to soothe the boy. Lucky for them no one else was in the common room they were all at breakfast, or so that’s what they thought until they heard the painting leading to the 8th year common room, they all jumped apart and spun to see Draco Malfoy standing in front of the four, tears staining his cheeks. Harry ran up to the broken boy and pulled him into a tight hug, even though the two hated each other Harry still had a heart. The starry-eyed boy wanted to push Potter away but he didn’t have the will or strength to, the blonde just melted into Harry’s embrace, more tears falling down his face. Harry pulled away to look the boy in the eyes. He tried to make eye contact with Draco but he just looked away, harry placed his hands on the sides of Draco's face forcing him to look up at him, once he caught the boys icy eyes he got lost the blonde stepped closer giving him a weak smile and placing a small kiss on the cheek of the green-eyed boy in front of him similar to the one he had given him on the train. Draco then walked up to his room. He felt happy that he just lied on his bed opening a book but not paying attention to any words on the page, the only thing his eyes were focused on was Harry Potter and his stupidly green eyes.
