A/N~ Thank you for the review, my lone reader :D Warnings: Angst, implied M/M

Projection

Dreams were what they had now. No longer able to be together physically, they walked together in dreams. Harry found that Draco was aware, and waited for him. They talked about the events that transpired, and what was most likely to come. They talked about the past and the future, but most importantly they talked like friends getting to know each other for the first time. Love and attraction, were still burning in them, but becoming friends and learning who each other was, was an important step they had to take.

Harry bid goodbye to Draco in the Dream world when he felt himself shaken awake by someone, Draco chuckled because he knew the connection was more than dreams.

Blinking up, the form of Ron's concerned face staring back at him brought him up short. "What is it? Am I late for breakfast?" Harry mumbled sleepily.

Ron looked concerned, "You have been out for a day, mate. Care to explain what happened? One moment we were making a potion and the next you fainted."

Harry thought about the events, and his time with Draco in the Dream world seemed like it had lasted days almost. (It was only one day, love. Though we talked about an eternity) Draco conveyed with a smile. (I hope you get me out of this cocoon you put me in soon, thought, I know I feel comfortable, but it stinks being an invalid or vegetable with only your mind as company.)

(We'll figure something out)Harry sent back.

"I'm not exactly sure what happened, it wasn't my scar this time though." Harry said, it wasn't a lie, but it didn't say the whole truth.

"Um, Harry, I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but it seems Malfoy has disappeared. You don't think he went to join You-Know-Who?" Ron said apologetically.

Harry smiled, "Not Draco, he is better than that. And he is safe where he is, not meddling in dark arts or the Dark lord."

Ron looked at him questioningly, but shrugged. "If you say so, Harry. Hermione and I tried to look into it, but there has not been a single witness to his leaving. I also heard dad tell mum, his parents seemed to be disappeared too, though she didn't know it got through the fire call."

"Ron," Harry interjected,” They ran, they haven’t wanted to be part of things for a while, and control is one of the biggest factors when Voldemort gained power. I am sure the Dark mark has something to do with that, but I am sure over time, one can fight the control like them and Snape are doing."

Ron huffed, "They are still gits, but nothing horrendous was ever traced back to them, so maybe you are right. Do you feel up to dinner?"

Harry nodded, then got up to clean up in the bathroom.

(I had a visit today from Vona Harry) Draco's voice in his head felt soft and husky. Harry had turned on the bath water to get himself cleaned up when Draco contacted him, though it was like he never left, a part of him was always there.

(I am always there, But now I can sort of really be there.) Draco sent. (How?) Harry asked. Just as Harry slipped under the heated water a form appeared next to him, shimmery, but solid, Draco, but not.

"Vona showed me how to project, so now I don't have to be cooped up inside my little cocoon you put me in." Draco drawled in an almost accusatory tone.

I am not sure what happened, but Snape did something wrong and part of me took over to protect you, I am sure the same would have happened on your end if things had been reversed.” Harry replied.

Though Draco's form was shimmery, it was solid. Harry could wrap his arms around Draco's waist and just hold him. It was this simple intimacy that made him feel whole again. Draco laid in his arms absorbing the feel, reveling in being where he wanted, when he wanted. He let himself go into Harry's keeping relaxing further, when part of him connected with Harry, seeping into Harry. Half of Draco was in Harry's arms the other Half was in Harry. The instant burst of pure energy ran through each of them, shocking Draco to sit up and out of Harry then disappear altogether.

(What happened, Where did you go?)

(It takes a lot of energy to project, and whatever just happened, well started to drain me, and well shocked me a bit too.)

(Whatever happened, it was powerful, did you feel it?)

(Yes, of course, I think we almost merged)

(Would that be a bad thing?)

(Only if we couldn't come back to ourselves.)

(I think we will have that choice.)

(Go eat your dinner, I will rest. I'll see you tonight, in your dreams) There was a smile thrown in.

Harry was dressed and down to the Great Hall just in time for Dinner.

Professor Dumbledore stood to gather the attention of the students with a small, but loud clap. The hall fell silent, He rarely addressed the students during dinner unless it was important.

"Hogwarts will be needed to be vacated this upcoming week, as the staff need to re-work the wards due to some expiration. Parents have been contacted to arrange for your travel and accommodations will be provided off site for those who cannot travel. Please be prepared to depart soon, we shall see you again the week after next, think of it a holiday." The students cheered at the announcement.

Harry shivered, at the Chill that ran down his spine, looking up to the teacher's table, not one looked happy at this "holiday". Professor Snape’s eyes met Harry's as he skimmed the High table, Professor Snape looked away and shook his head. That signal was enough to know that the time was here.

Ron and Hermione didn't miss the exchange. "What is it Harry?" Hermione asked.

"Next week HE is coming, that is why they are sending everyone home." Harry whispered, trying not to be overheard. "Then we are staying" Ron said emphatically, Hermione nodded too, and Harry felt a nudge from Ginny and a few others had evidently heard at their table as well and nodded their alliance.

Harry departed the great hall after eating very little. This day was coming too soon, he didn't know what to do, how can he do anything. He needed the comfort of Draco. He laid down in bed, closed the curtains and spelled them closed.

(How can I project, you said Vona showed you how, so tell me how to do it.)

(You have to empty your mind, and see yourself outside your body. You have to let your mind lose control and your will gain it. Took me a few tries... thanks for the mossy bed by the way.)

(that wasn't me, that was us. Somehow we manifest what our comfort is when needed)

Harry closed his eyes, his mind was chaos, thoughts of Voldemort, Dumbledore, School, homework, Ron, Hermione, his family all violently vied for his attention. One by one, he pushed each away. He then pictured himself laying on the bed, red crumpled sheets, black hair, glasses askew, grey school uniform. And in the next moment, he saw himself. Just as he had pictured. He tried to touch his body and fell right back into himself, and his mind filled with chaos once again. (Dang it, I almost had it.) (You have to let go Harry, think beyond your physical form, and just go.)

Harry tried again, this time he did not pay attention to his body. He just willed himself to go. And he found himself walking around the common room. (How do I find you?) (you don't have to walk here, just be here)

Harry focused harder, building the image of the chamber in his mind, seeing the moss covered chamber, the bed where Draco lay, and then he was there.

Draco was still cocooned and physically in a sleep/stasis state. But Harry could still feel his presence and that was enough. He walked over and placed his hand on Draco's cheek and stroked it softly, laid his head over Draco's chest and rested. There was an audible sigh in both their heads, a connection bridged.

(I love you) (I know, I love you too)

The peace and serenity that the projection afforded Harry was a wonderful feeling, the exhaustion wasn't something he felt, since his body was so far away. He would have stayed like that forever if Draco had not nudged him with his mind. (You can't stay, your energy will drain and you will have no way back.) Harry didn't want to go, but pictured his body anyway.
