Harry's P.O.V

I woke up the next morning with Draco's arms wrapped tightly around my body, I wished that I could've just stayed like that forever, just stay lying in his arms forever, but I knew of course I couldn't. I looked over at the clock on the bed side table and saw that it was already 9:10am and I had to be in my first lesson at 10:00am. So I got up out of the bed with a bit of difficulty, because Draco's sleeping body was pretty reluctant to let me go. When I finally did get out of the bed, I walked over to the small bathroom next to Draco's room and jumped in the shower. It felt good having the hot water running down my spine as I thought about every aspect of my life, usually I try not to think about the bad stuff but today I just couldn't help myself, I thought about the war, Ginny, Hermione, Ron, but most of all Draco.

When I got out of the shower, I wrapped a towel around my waist. Then I got dressed into a pair of dark grey skinny jeans and an faded black T-shirt that I knew belonged to Draco, since us being there wasn't compulsory, we didn't have to wear uniforms. I looked in the mirror, checking to make sure I looked okay, then I walked over to the bed and kissed a sleeping Draco on the forehead and left to go to my first lesson, defence against the dark arts, which I feel was pointless for me to take.

I went over to Hermione's bedroom and knocked on the door, she said I could come in so I entered, expecting to see her getting ready, but she wasn't, she was siting on her bed with Madam Pomfrey by her side, she looked like she'd been crying and she was holding her stomach. I automatically assumed the worst and I started asking loads of questions,

"What's wrong? Is the baby okay? Are you okay? What's going on?" I asked all in one go. She gave a slight laugh and signalled for me to sit down, so I sat on the end of her bed and rested my hand on her lower leg, "What's wrong Mione?" I asked in concern.

"Nothing, I'm fine, the baby's fine, everything going to be okay. I just started getting really bad cramps yesterday so Madam Pomfrey thought it would be the perfect opportunity to have my first scan." She said with a big smile on her face, which made me smile too, but I could still see a slight sadness in her eyes.

"She's doing really well and the baby is looking very healthy and has a strong heartbeat." Madam Pomfrey said with a smile, Hermione was still looking slightly sad so I decided to ask her why.

"Mione? Why do you look like you've been crying?" I asked without a clue as to why, due to the baby's health. Her smile faded slightly, but it was still there.

"Ron's gone. He's left Hogwarts and he's not finishing his education, he's going to work with Fred in the shop and the worst thing is that he doesn't want anything to do with the baby. He says that he doesn't want to be a Dad. So basically as soon as I leave Hogwarts to have the baby, I'm homeless." She wouldn't let the tears fall, she held them in but I could see they where there.

"No! You wont be homeless, I wont let that happen, you can come and live with me, we'll sort something out. You don't need Ron! You have me. I'll look after you!" Her smile came back and she leaned over and hugged me, I hugged her back as tight as I could without hurting her or the baby.

"Anyway, you need to get to our lesson!" She says acting like my mother again, but I don't mind at all. I smile and give her a peck on the cheek and leave her to get some rest. Madam Pomfrey had said she needed it because of all the stress she was under. 'Great, so I have to be in lessons on my own all day now! And I've missed breakfast and I'm hungry' I thought to myself. Then I saw Professor McGonagall walking towards me in a hurry.

"Potter, no lessons today for you. I fail to see a point in you going to a lesson on your own and as Mr Weasley is no longer a student and as Mrs Granger is ill, you would be ahead of her in lessons, so I've cancelled your lessons for today, I do hope you don't mind." She looked as though she was worried about something, although I never could read Professor McGonagall.

"Yes Professor that's fine, but do you seriously think I would ever be able to get ahead of Hermione in lessons? Everyone says she's the smartest witch her age!" She gave a slight laugh.

"Maybe not, do you know where Mrs Granger is? She wasn't in the hospital ward and I wanted to check to see if she was okay." She said with worry laced in her voice.

"Yes Professor, she's in her room and Madam Pomfrey is with her." She smiled and we walked back to the after years dorms together. When we got there, McGonagall rushed to Hermione's room and walked straight in. I knew that they would probably be having a girly chat about the baby and stuff, so I decided to go and see if Draco was up yet. I walked into his room and saw that he was still asleep, so I decided to leave him be, after all, at least he was getting some sleep. He needed it, he was to stressed out. So I went back to my room to look through my potions book, at least then it wouldn't be a wasted school day.

Draco's P.O.V

I woke up the next morning and Harry was gone. "Great, he's used me! Just like Blaise!" I said to myself. I got up and got in the shower. I saw that one of my towels was on the flour while I was in the shower, all I thought about was Harry. When I got out of the shower, I dried my hair and got dressed into some black skinny jeans and a top with the name of a muggle band that I like on the front 'My Chemical Romance', with some black pumps. Then I made the courageous decision to go and talk to Harry.

I walked towards his door and heard music coming from behind his door, he was singing and it was beautiful, I knew the words but didn't know where from so I placed me ear on the door so that I could hear more clearly. He sang the words beautifully "When you go, Would you even turn to say, I don't love you, Like I did, Yesterday" I knew where it was from, it was my favourite song.

I knocked on his door and he stopped singing and said "Come in." I entered as he put his guitar down and got up to hug me.

"Hey Draco, you're finally up!" He pulled away from our hug and kissed my cheek, "Whats wrong?" He asked as he grabbed my hand and pulled me towards the bed to sit down.

"I though you'd left me." I said as I burst into tears, I felt pathetic crying over this, but I couldn't help myself. He held me closely and whispered in my ear

"I will never leave you, I love you so much Dray." He looked deep into my eyes and kissed me sweetly on the lips.

"I just woke up and thought you'd left because you didn't want me, just like Blaise did." I looked down, then he placed his index finger under my chin and lifted my head up so that I had to look at him.

He smiled at me and said "Draco, I will NEVER, ever leave you! I love you so much." I looked him straight in the eye and asked him

"But do you really love me?" I had so much doubt in his words, I couldn't see why he would love me. Who could love scum like me?

He kissed my lips "Of course I do, do you think that last night meant nothing to me! I love you so much Draco, and I never, ever want to loose you. I really do love you, I love you more than anything else in this world!" I know he was trying his hardest to re-assure me, but it wouldn't work, I'd never be able to see past the discusting things I'd done. I knew I'd never see the version of me that Harry saw.
