To meet you again 3

The thing about Blaise was, that he was able to accept most things readily enough. Harry wasn't sure if this was a trade necessary to survive as the only son of Matron Zabini, or one Blaise had picked up while being Draco- I shift- my - mood- as - much- as - I - want to- Malfoy's best friend.
So while Harry himself still fought with the shock of not only saying what he had said, but also because there had been no quick retort; Blaise put an empty Scotch glass in front of him. "Here, you will drink this," he ordered and poured his finest Scotch from his private stash, which was only used for very special occasions in, "and then you go home. We'll both pretend you never said what you said and I'll even put this on the house."

Harry did as told and emptied the glass in one go, before he shook his head: "No. I can't! I want my fiancé back and I want my spring wedding to happen. When we talked about kids, this was not what I had in mind. I am a fucking hero, I deserve my happy end. I'm sick of waiting, I want it now. I did all I could... I want Draco, the old one, the mean one, with the sharp tongue and the cutting humour. The one who would change his entire ensemble simply because he felt like it. And the fucking mood swings," Harry ranted.

Blaise took the glass from Harry and poured another one.

"Hey," Harry leaned forward, watching Blaise emptying the glass himself. "What was that for?"

"Just checking something," Blaise answered calmly and offered Harry the next.

"And what?" Harry snapped, sniffing the glass. cautiously. Never, never just trust a Slytherin.

"The obliviation power of this fine brew. And I agree with you for today only. You get three from me, and then you go home, before tomorrow comes."

"Blaise..."

"No Potter, I don't want to hear it, and you have to stop saying it. If anyone is able to get through this, it is your obnoxious prat of a fiancé and my devil be dammed best friend! Understood?"

"I thought you pure-bloods don't believe in the God and the Devil?" Harry replied at long last, taking the glass again.

"Well, we don't but we learn such expressions from you half-breeds or muggle- borns. Can't be helped all the time I guess."

"Okay," Harry nodded once, took the filled up glass again and downed it in one.
He exchanged one last long look with Blaise, nodding once more and left the restaurant.
It was going to be okay. He could do this, and so could Draco!


"Good morning Jessica," he greeted the night nurse as promised on his way to Draco's door. Harry took a last deep breath, before he opened the door with a warm smile on his lips, and went in.
"Good morning Draco."
Harry sat down on the bed, in which Draco was already sitting upright too, smiling back.

"Harry!" Draco exclaimed with his usual enthusiasm. "The healer said I was a good boy, and that I can go out with you today!"

"Really, did he say that?" harry played along, pretending that this conversation happened for the first time.
The problem never was the going out, the problem was the outing itself.
Always everything was possible.
"And where would you like to go?" he asked.

"Hogsmeade! I dreamed of it, and the nurse told me it's a real place, so I want to go and check if I dreamed of it the right way," Draco explained, nodding along with himself.

"You dreamed of Hogsmeade?"
That for certain had not happened before.

"Yes! There was this shop, which had all sorts of sweets, and I was allowed to taste them all! And then there was this book shop. And a robe shop too! But most importantly there was this inn, with this huge sign that was rather old, but it had three broomsticks on it!" Draco explained.

"Why is that one, most important?" Harry simply had to ask.

"Because you liked it there best. And you would eat that weird pie thing! I want to see it, I want to go there with you," Draco whispered, looking to the side.

"Sure, why not. Hogsmeade sounds like fun," Harry readily agreed, even if he had a feeling that maybe he shouldn't. Hogsmeade for certain was not unfamiliar for Draco.
But if Draco wanted to go, they would go. No point fearing the unknown.

Aw, Draco.
And Harry wanting so much for things to be as they were.

A little bit of hope is a good thing.
Looking forward to where you take this next.

I love your Blaise! Determined and stubborn, just as he should be!
I still feel so sorry for Harry, but there does seem to be a little bit of hope at least!
