When Harry woke it was dark and silent. He sat up slowly and looked around. He was in one of the beds in the hospital wing and judging from how dark it was he assumed it was late at night. He furrowed his eyebrows trying to remember how he ended up here when an image of Draco hanging from the rafters flashed before his eyes. Draco. He felt a wave of panic and sorrow wash over him, he was gone, Draco was gone.

He quickly stood up and tried to walk, he had to get out of here, but a wave of dizziness washed over him and he grabbed the bed post for support. He rubbed the back of his head and winced as he hit a slight bump, he must have hit it or something. Harry started to walk towards the doors, wanting to get out of this place and get some fresh air, when he noticed someone lying on the bed next to his, the blanket drawn up to his chin and a pillow resting on the side of his head, his face turned away in the other direction, all that he could see was blonde hair. Strikingly familiar blonde hair.

He let out a small gasp of surprise "Draco?" He asked with a shaky voice, rubbing his eyes, he must be imagining things. Draco was dead.

The other boy rolled over and opened his eyes, even in the dark he could see that it was definitely Draco. Harry felt weak at the knees, like he was about to collapse. It felt like the walls were closing in on Harry but he couldn't move, glued to the spot by warm grey eyes.

"Hi Harry" Draco said with a croaky voice and a sad smile. "Nice of you to finally wake up" he slowly sat up and rubbed his throat, when he pulled his hands away Harry could see faint bruises, a ring of black and blue around his neck.

Harry shook his head and rubbed his eyes again, waiting for Draco to disappear. "You were dead!" He yelled when he realised that Draco was still there. "I saw you hanging from the freaking roof, Madam Pomfrey said that you were dead. YOU WERE DEAD" he was still trying to make sense of what was happening. The sight of the bruises made him feel slightly lightheaded.  

"Shhhhhh Harry, keep it down! I wasn't dead, you fainted before Madam Pomfrey could finish. I'm fine" Draco said.

"You're not fine! I saw you hanging from the rafters Draco, Hanging!" Harry felt tears prickle behind his eyes but he wouldn't let them fall.

Draco winced "You weren't meant to find me" He mumbled. Harry walked over and sat down next to him.

"I'm glad I did, you scared me so much Draco! I thought you were dead, I thought it was my fault. Oh god, I thought you were gone" Harry's voice broke and tears rolled down Draco's face. 

"I'm sorry Harry, you shouldn't have seen that" Draco looked down at his hands.

Harry put a hand on his shoulder "No" he said sternly "I'm the one who should apologize, I should have believed you when you said you didn't want to be a death eater, I should have been there for you. but I wasn't and I'm sorry"

Draco opened his mouth to argue, to say it wasn't his fault but Harry cut him off.

"I know you are about to argue with me and I don't want to fight, not with you. God Draco I love you so much and I thought you were dead" Harry said.

Draco pulled him into a hug "I'm sorry for scaring you" he whispered into his ear.

"Just promise me something" Harry said

"If you feel that way again come and find me"

Draco let out a shaky breath and he felt Harry squeeze him reassuringly. Draco was glad Harry didn't ask him not to try again or didn't ask him to talk about it. In his own way Harry let Draco know that he was always there for him and that made him feel a lot less alone and cut off.

"Yeah I can try" Draco said.

"Thank you" 

Harry knew that this wasn't all going to go away overnight, he knew that there were still so many things they had to work out but for now Harry was content with the fact that Draco was alive.

Neither of them spoke for the rest of the night, they held each other until sleep overtook them, the word sorry at the tip of their tongues but it was never said because in the end there wasn't really anything to apologise for.
