Chapter-11
Second Chance
Something had been nagging Harry. Something was compelling him to return to Draco. Four hours had passed and he had been wanting to see Draco for the last half an hour.
He had not gone to Snape's place. He had shopped for groceries and then walked a bit and spent his time in a garden. When it became unbearable for him to stay still for another moment, he decided to return. It was just seven PM and Draco had asked him to return at 9. But He just couldn't stay away for a moment longer. So he closed his eyes and apparated to his house.
He unlocked the door with his key and entered it.
"Draco. I am home." He called after placing the groceries on the table.
"Draco I brought your coffee too. Your favourite one and I have brought some garlic and noodles. Draco. " He called loudly because Draco was not replying. "Look I am sorry I have returned earlier but I just wanted to see you. I will prepare noodles for you tonight."
Still there was no answer so he called again "Draco."
A bead of sweat trickled down his cheek and he called loudly " Kreacher. KREACHER. ", jumping two stairs at a time.
" Yes Master." The elf was trembling and he asked "Where is Draco?", having reached the topmost stair.
The elf shook head and pulled his ears. "Room. please master."
Harry's eyes widened and he realized that his feeling had been right.
He ran as fast as he could and screamed "Floo Hermione. Ask her to bring her team over here."
"Yes Master"
The sight that met his eyes when he opened the door took his breath away.
Draco was hanging, a rope around his neck, his body trembling and his mouth open in an attempt to breathe. Harry shouted a spell that cut the rope and Draco's body fell on the bed.
"DRACO." DRACO. What's the matter?" But Draco was not moving. His eyes were closed. "God damnit Draco. Wake up." He shouted and shook Draco's chest wildly.
"Draco. Please. Please be alive." He shouted frantically, his voice breaking and his eyes tearing up.
"Dra- Draco." He hiccupped and his world was slowly falling apart around him. Why had Draco committed suicide? What had compelled him? Why had he broken when nothing had deterred him in the past?
Tears trickled down his cheeks when Draco still did not open his eyes. He stopped shaking the man's chest and just stared at him.
"HOW COULD YOU, YOU – YOU BLOODY COWARD? HOW COULD YOU JUST LEAVE ME ALONE?" He shouted hoarsely, to no avail. Draco lay there on the bed, still with eyes closed.
Why was he always too late? He should never have Draco alone. Why did he leave Draco alone?
"Harry. Mate." He heard a voice and did not turn around. It was Ron. "Harry. What happened? Kreacher did not say anything." It was Hermione. Harry still did not turn around. He just stared at Draco. Draco would never laugh again. He would never give him goodnight kisses or scold him for being too messy and irresponsible. Harry's throat was closing and his mind was spinning.
Everything around him was spinning and he felt everything slipping from his hands.
Someone sat with him and touched his shoulder and someone reached for Draco but he knew nothing except the fact that Draco had died and Harry had never been so ashamed of himself.
Shame on him. He had lost Draco again. He had lost Draco for the second time. Draco had snapped again. It would have been better if he had stayed away from Harry. That way, at least he would be alive.
All the images of his past and present were spinning in his head.
Draco laughing with him...
Draco kissing him...
Draco shouting at him for being late ...
Draco disappointed in him for not taking him out...
Draco saying that Harry was enough for him to live...
Draco saying his vows...
"I, Draco Lucius Malfoy, promise to have and to hold, Harry James Potter from this day forward, for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, until death do us part."
Harry had also said the same vows and he had not fulfilled them. He had broken his promise. He had not paid attention to Draco. He had not loved him enough. He did not deserve Draco at all.
He had wasted time in brooding about his childhood, his insecurities.
The images won't stop...
Draco asking him if they could adopt a child...
He had refused and had lied about his reasons. He had said that he did not want baby. He loved babies but had been afraid that he won't be able to take care of one. He should have told Draco. He should have told everything to Draco. He should have asked Draco about his own sorrows.
He had wasted too much time and now Draco was gone.
"DRACO." He wailed. Draco did not answer but he heard a loud voice trying to get through him. The voice belonged to his Ron.
"He is breathing. Harry. He is alive. HARRY." Ron shouted and finally Harry opened his eyes. He blinked twice before his eyes lay on Draco again. Hermione had laid his body on the bed and she was sitting in front of Harry, with Ron trying to make him listen.
"He is alive?" Harry whispered and Hermione nodded.
It was Ron who spoke "He is alive. You saved him Harry. You came on time. Had you been a minute late, he would have died." Harry sobbed in relief and closed his wet eyes. Ron hugged and him and so did Hermione.
"He is alive. Breathe. Please." She whispered and he breathed deeply.
"He had left a letter for you. We did not open it but we think you must read it." Ron said and Harry nodded "Okay."
"We are leaving. Floo us if you need us Harry." Hermione spoke and they left after another hug.
Harry walked towards Draco with the letter in his hand. Draco was sleeping and he sat beside him.
With trembling fingers, he opened the letter and started reading it.
Dearest Harry,
I know that I have not said this enough since I married you but I love you with my heart and soul. I know that I did not give you time and I am sorry. I should have spoken to you about your joys and sorrows.
If you are reading this, then I am dead. I know that you must be very sad and you must be feeling that you do not deserve me.
You are wrong on that count. You were not the sole reason of the breaking of our marriage. I was equally responsible. I did not trust you enough. I did not talk to you enough and now my time is over.
I have to go Harry so that you can move on because you won't if I am alive. I still won't tell you anything. My secrets will be buried with me not because I do not want you to know.
Okay, the partial reason is that I don't want you to know but the major is that I do not want you to miss me or fight for me or spend your life seeking vengeance.
I am missing you so much. Something happened that compelled me to take this step but I cannot tell you.
I know that you are breaking inside while reading this but please move on Harry. It's time to let go and forget me.
Good bye, my Harry.
I love you and I know that you love me too.
Always yours,
Draco.
Harry breathed hard because there was a lump in his throat which prevented him from breathing. What had happened that compelled Draco to take such a big step?
He looked at Draco's sleeping figure and knelt down to hear his heart beats just to make sure that he was indeed alive.
He heard a knock on the door and said "Enter."
Kreahcer trembling figure came in and the elf was pulling his ears. He asked, a bit startled "What happened?"
"Master, you must visit Master Draco's lab. I hid the letter and photos their so that Master Draco does not destroy them. Kreahcer will punish himself for going against Master Draco's wishes but you must see them Master Harry, before Master Draco wakes up. Kreacher will stay here and will call you if Master Draco wakes up."
Harry nodded and walked towards Draco's lab blindly. He entered it and the letter and photos were lying on the table. As he went through them, his blood boiled. Draco had been blackmailed. The photos made him want to seek the bastard and kill him in cold blood but Draco needed him right now. There would be time for revenge later on.
If this bastard thought that he would go unpunished then he was sorely mistaken. He clenched his fist and glared at the fireplace angrily.
The anger that had left with Voldemort's defeat returned and he felt the urge to return to Britain and destroy this person and others who had hurt Draco.
But right now, he had to speak to Draco and request him to trust Harry. He walked towards Draco's room, the photos and letter clutched in his hand.

Draco opened his eyes and blinked hard. The last thing he remembered was that he had hanged himself. What had happened after that? Why was he still alive?
All his thoughts came to a sudden halt when he noticed that Harry was sitting in front of him with crossed legs and red eyes fixed on him, as if he was waiting for Draco to wake up for hours.
"You coward." Harry hissed and it was completely contrary to reaction that he had expected from Harry that he just stared. "You bloody coward. How dare you do this to me? You did not trust me at all, did you? It's all good for you to say that I should move on, that I should forget you. Do you even realize the effect these words have on me Draco. You were so close to dying today and I almost lost my mind when I realized this. How dare you decide on my behalf?"
Draco opened his mouth to speak and Harry did not let him speak at all "Don't tell me lies. I have seen the letter and the-" Harry breathed deeply and continued "the photos as well. Why did you do this and do not tell me lies. I want to hear the truth."
Draco just stared at Harry's furious face. The tears had dried and tear tracks were visible on his cheeks. Harry's eyes were red rimmed and Draco was rendered speechless. He had nothing to say so he turned away from Harry.
"What did you think I would do after looking at these photos and reading the letter, Draco? Leave you alone, shout at you or god forbid, perhaps you thought that I would beat you up. What compelled you to commit suicide? You took such a big step. You decided for me as well. There must having been some reason. Tell me." Harry continued, his voice unreadable and Draco spoke in a small voice "I thought that you would despise me."
"Despise you. DESPISE YOU." Harry screamed and Draco replied "What am I to you, after all? I have so much emotional baggage."
"Everything." Harry whispered softly and Draco turned to look at him, murmuring "What?"
"Everything. You are everything, my life, my heart, my everything. You are all I have. You are the one I wake up for and you are the one I want to sleep in the arms of. I would die without you. You think that I would move on, that, that I would forget you. I would go mad and I was on the verge of going mad. I- I am so ashamed of myself, Draco. I am so sorry." Harry's voice broke and his eyes were shining.
"What do you mean?" Draco murmured, trying to understand him.
"I had promised that I would take care of you. I failed. I don't deserve you. I failed, Draco. I couldn't take care of you. I made you cry. I increased your depression. I compelled you to leave." Harry spoke, his eyes sad and still fixed on Draco.
Draco's eyes widened in shock when he heard Harry's heartfelt words. He said softly "You were not the only one at fault. You have your own ghosts of past, Harry and I did not try to know. I was so engrossed in myself that I did not talk to you about you at all."
Harry did not reply. He just stared at Draco. "Hey. I am fine." Draco murmured and a lone tear fell down Harry's expressionless face "You almost died."
After a pause Harry continued "I swear Draco. If something happens to you, I will follow you. I won't live alone."
Draco just stared at the man "This is so unfair."
"It is what it is. I can't live without you. I am going to tell you my secret. This is something that i did not tell anyone. Not even Hermione and Ron. " Harry's eyez were distant as he continued "Their is a reason I don't like anyone entering the shower when I am inside, not even you. At hogwarts, I used to bathe early morning. I was seven and had started bathing by myself but I kept the door unlocked so that I could call someone if needed. One day I was taking bath when Vernon entered inside. I asked him the reason but he simply smiled and said that he wanted to help me bathe. I agreed since I was small and wanted my relatives to love me. He started rubbing soap on my chest and pinched my nipples. I- I thought it was by mistake and did not object. He bent and kissed both of them. I still did not object though I was alarmed. Then the bastard started rubbing soap on my hips and reached between them. He started applying the soap on my anus, rubbing hard and I asked him why was he rubbing hard but he said that he was cleaning me. I was afraid but thought that perhaps I was overeacting but then he inserted a finger inside it. I-"
Harry broke and Draco realized that he was speechless and so angry. It was horrifying that someone could be so vile to a little baby.
"I was frightened and my accidental magic came to my aid, blasting him to the opposite wall. He ran away and - and then he tried again after a couple of days. This time I was sleeping and it was early morning. He entered and removed my blanket and then removed my pajamas. I was fast asleep. His cold hands woke me up and I tried to struggle but he was stronger and pinned me and spanked my hips hard before biting my left hip and trying to insert fingers inside by anus again but I blasted him apart again. That is why I used to lock my bath room and bed room. One night he tried to mix something in my juice so that I lose consciousness but I did not drink it. That is why I always check when offered anything from anyone. He tried many times and then I came to Hogwarts and he was afraid after that. Once I was preparing breakfast in the kitchen and he spanked by bottom hard before squeezing my hips. I glared at him and he backed off, scared of my magic. I -" Draco was not lying on the bed anymore. He had sat up straight and hugged Harry tightly "Why did you never tell me? Sweet Merlin. Did he ever, ummm do that?"
Harry did not speak. He just placed his head on Draco's shoulder and breathed in and out a few times, trying to control himself "No. The last time he tried- I was cleaning his house and you know I wore my cousin's clothes so they were loose. All of a sudden, he came and pulled my pajamas. He tried to grab my hips but I was so angry that I burned his finger. After that he never tried anything again. I have not told this to anyone till date. "
" You should have told someone." Draco spoke, his head on Harry's shoulder.
"I was afraid. It's okay. It's past and I will never meet him again so it's fine. " Harry said and Draco argued " I will pay your uncle a visit though. "
" you won't " Harry warned him and Draco replied "I will. He deserves to be punished."
"Will you tell me about your past? " Harry changed the subject and asked. Draco replied "I don't want to. Not yet at least. "
"Take your time. Please trust me. I will never despise you. I love you. will you trust me not to despise you at least? "
Draco swallowed and nodded slowly. Harry continued, his eyes firm and adamant "Let's sleep. We will get up and I will make noodles for you and you can tell me things if you feel comfortable. Just know that I won't rest unless he or people who have hurt you have been punished."
Draco swallowed and looked as Harry lay down and opened his arms to welcome Draco. He went willingly in them, not questioning Harry or his decision.
