To meet you again 4

Slowly Harry set Draco down on the bed, trying his best not to wake him. Although there might not be a real reason to bother, Draco was out like a light. But it had been a relative good day. Draco had enjoyed himself, and that was what really counted. Every time they went around a corner, Draco had laughed and told Harry how exactly like in his dream it had been. He somehow had also managed to get Harry to buy him one of every sweet Honeydukes had to offer. The sugar-high had been enormous, but luckily for Draco lots of kids had been around to build a snowman, to have a snowball fight and to let the whole town know that the kids had fun with all the snow. And later on the ate "the strange pie that doesn't taste totally bad" and had a nice creamy Butterbeer to go with it.
Of course there had been stares and whispers a grown up man, a Malfoy playing silly games with kids. But then Draco's story had been in the press ever since the curse had hit him. Sometimes Harry wondered if maybe this was his punishment for not joining the aurors?
He sighed and pushed those thoughts away, while he undressed Draco and dressed him for bed.

"Potter, I had fun today," was whispered in a dry voice and Harry froze.

"Draco? Draco... Draco wake up! Come on, speak to me again! Draco!"

"Ha-ha-harry, you are hurting me," Draco looked at him with big eyes and tears in them, his button lip already trembling.

"Sorry- Sorry Draco. I just- I- I for a moment- I was afraid," Harry caught his breath, trying to fight his disappointment.
"You slept so deep, I was afraid you would never wake up," he spoke his own tears getting the better of him. For a moment there had been his Draco, he was sure! It couldn't have just all been in his mind.

"Will there be a day when I will not wake up anymore?" Draco asked afraid.

"One day, yes. But that day is now still in the far, far future of yours. When you are old and grumpy and your hair is all gone," Harry smiled, while tears were still rolling down his cheeks.

"So why where you afraid that I won't wake up now?" Draco asked again, watching Harry carefully.

Harry gulped. What should he say? What was there even to say?
"I was afraid because I care deeply about you, and for a moment my fear played a trick on me. But you have nothing to worry," he said what came to his mind.

"Mhm, okay," Draco nodded accepting the answer after a moment of thought.

"So go back to sleep again, so that I can pick you up tomorrow and we might get another fun day!" He brushed Draco's nose with his fingers and kissed his forehead. "Sleep tight," he wished.

Harry left the hospital in a rush, running through the streets, before he located the hidden entry to the ministry.
As soon as he located the right door, on the right floor he banged against it: "Nott, open the freaking door! I know you are still here. Nott! He spoke to me! You have to check again! Something has changed," Harry screamed against the door, not caring if he was making a scene.

Very slowly the door opened, though no one was to be seen, but Harry had no time to waste:"Nott, where the hell are you!"

"If you please would calm down, Potter!" came the quiet, dangerous voice.
For all he liked Blaise, and their easy friendship, Nott gave him the creeps.

Okay this explains a lot. So there was a curse and there is now a slight improvement. I hope Nott, despite being creepy is good at what he does.

I am quite happy with this storyline and confident Nott will deliver. In canon he always was shy but clever and Slytherins do help each other out. Since Harry has been seeing him before, he is already working on it and no smart Slytherin will shy away from a challenge, especially when there are new developments.

This broke my heart, oh god. Seeing Harry's hopes crushed like that, and poor Draco ... I just, sigh.

Looking forward to reading more.

Oooh, Blaise and now Theo? We are spoiled! ;)
I like that, despite his little freak-out, Harry is still holding onto so much hope, even though it probably hurts him. And his desperation now that he's sen a little hope there!
