Updating: I think
I am going to try and update this story every Thursday. I have at least fifteen
chapters already written for this story � I�m currently working on chapter
sixteen. So I�ll update once a week on a Thursday until I catch up or until
it�s complete. Sound good? If you are interested in keeping an eye out for
updates for any of my other stories, you can go to my bio; I keep an updated
record on what�s happening with my chapters there.

Authors Notes: Hey
guys. Okay my first warning is that this chapter is a little short and it�s
mainly thinking and what not � so it may be boring to a few.

On second notes, thank you all so much for your reviews. I�m
going to be honest in saying that I�ve been really nervous about this sequel in
the fact that �Unknown� was so popular, and sometimes sequels just take things
down hill. So I feel like I have a little bit of pressure on my story with
�Unknowns� reputation and all. But I am enjoying writing this story and I am
glad to hear that you are all enjoying reading it so far. I hope you all enjoy
this chapter.

characters used in this story belong to J.K Rowling. I only own the plot line.

Chapter Two � Deep
Thoughts

I just realised something - though that is a normal
occurrence for me - but something else has come to my attention recently. I�ve
just realised that everyone lays their life in someone else�s hand everyday,
not one day goes by where someone isn�t carrying another�s life in their own
hands.

Take a muggle bus driver for instant, all his passengers trust
him to get them to their destination with no disturbance. They trust a complete
stranger to keep them safe. They�re completely insane!

I�d hate to rest all my faith in a person I don�t even know,
for all I know I could be handing my life over to a psychopathic killer,
imagine that! I think I�ll keep my life to myself, thank you.

I have realised though, that I lay a lot of my fears and
weaknesses in Harry�s hands. I tell Harry things that I really hit myself about
afterwards. I mean, when I was forced to tell him about all my �relationships�
that was difficult, and he could have truly ruined my life with all the
information I gave him, and that would have made a lot of people happy, to see
my name being run through the mud a few hundred times and then thrown in a mud
bath because it�s cleaner.

So in a way, I have a lot of faith in Harry, trusting him to
keep the things I tell him a secret. I must really be insane.

Closing my eyes I push all my thoughts away before I turn
paranoid, and concentrate on the water running down my back. I�ve always found
it calmer in a shower, it�s a place where I can think, where I can make my most
difficult and life changing decisions. I have no idea why the showers are the
place for me to do that. I mean, some people make their life changing decisions
in the car on the way to work, or walking and even talking� and I make mine in
showers� I enjoy being unique.

But I�ve been thinking even more about Harry�s offer, and
it�s starting to look more and more appealing, of course I know there are going
to be a lot of negative things coming with any decision I make, but then again
I think it�ll be good if I move in with him. I mean, we haven�t been dating for
too long, but I have dated and known him long enough to know that moving in with
Harry Potter will be one experience I should really consider before throwing
away.

He�s a great guy, he likes his place clean � even though it
doesn�t show most of the time - he�s a talented cook and he spoils me rotten�
what more could I ask for? Of course though, there�s the fact that if I say yes
it�s like loosing half my freedom to do as I please when I please, it means
that I�ll be around Harry more too� can I handle him for multiple hours and
days?

Groaning I tilt my head back. Once again I�m thinking.
Sometimes I wish that I can just have a shower without thinking, without
worrying.

And that reminds me of something. That call I got from
Thomas, that guy was serious when he threatened me, and I know what he�s
capable of.

Harry seems to think that most of the threat is over, and he
managed to sit me down and get me to explain most of my relationship with
Thomas in the past. I can easily say that he�s not impressed and I can also say
that if Harry and Thomas were to ever meet there will be one huge catfight. No
kidding there.

I�m thinking again!

It�s close to five in the morning, and I can�t sleep, no
matter what I try, I just can�t get any sleep. I keep thinking about Thomas.
Suddenly, after so many years of not hearing or seeing him, he re-appears, what�s
with that?

But then again, if it wasn�t him, I�m sure another dark
shadow from my past would pop up to haunt me, it�s always my luck for something
like that to happen. But then again Harry is someone from my past, and he just
popped up out of nowhere, almost literally, but that incident turned out good.

That�s it!

Turning the taps off - seeing as they weren�t doing their
desired affect of making me forget my problems, I stepped out of the shower.

I came in here to get away from my thoughts, and here I am
thinking even deeper then I was before. I�ve been thinking since I got here
anyway, Harry had insisted that I came home with him, not that I have any
problems with that anyway, I was all for it, the last thing I want is to go to
my place, alone, and think about Thomas.

Harry had told me that he had received a call from David,
some Auror that is always hanging off his every word. Don�t get me wrong, I�m
not jealous, how could I be jealous of that? I�m not! I just find it amusing
the way he flirts with my boyfriend,
and I swear Harry�s blind, he never believes me when I tell him someone was
checking him out, or someone was flirting with him. I personally hate people
flirting or checking Harry out, I�m not jealous, I know Harry likes me and
wouldn�t give someone else a second look. Well he better not.

Anyway, Harry had relayed to me that Thomas had been taken
care of, he did seem a little distracted though, but hey, I would be too if
Harry had some ex-boyfriend threaten him. But I can say that I�m relieved,
Thomas is now out of my hair and I can now move on without the fear of looking
over my back.

Drying myself and chucking on a loose shirt and jeans� both
of them belonging to Harry, I walked into the kitchen and prepared some hot coco,
maybe that�ll help me get my mind off things and settle down.

I had left Harry alone sleeping, I couldn�t sleep with the
events that had happened, all I could do was think, and sometimes I really,
really hate that.

Once the milk was hot enough, I poured the drink and stirred
the coco into it and slowly made my way into the lounge room.

I thought I was supposed to testify - or something like that - against Thomas for threatening me, but Harry
assures me that I don�t. Though when thinking back to that Harry had changed
the topic rather quickly� this must be bothering him more then I thought� he�s
probably finding my past harder to cope with then I had thought�

It�s always been my luck to find trouble. I should truly
feel privileged. I mean, this is giving me a bit of the spotlight, and we all
know that I love having the spotlight. But in a way this is not how I wanted to
gain it�

Maybe I can consider a career change, I could become a
writer. I could publish books. I know what I can write about. I can make a
bibliography about my life� Hey, that�s not a bad idea actually.

I�d have plenty to talk about, I�d have my action/adventure
and I�d also have the romance� no humour though, unless people find it funny
the time I decided I hated being a wizard and decided I�d be a muggle,
something that only lasted half a day once I realised that this meant I
couldn�t use my wand and ride a broom� I was only five at the time.

So maybe the book thing isn�t such a bad idea, but that�d
mean I�d have to go under a different name. The last thing I need is people to
read my life and then the press to mention it� on better thoughts, maybe I�ll
skip on that idea� The last thing I want is people knowing about my life.
Seeing that I�m dating Harry Potter, a bloody celebrity, I have to kind of
watch what I do, and seeing as I�m Draco Malfoy, the press are just waiting for
me to slip up.

No matter how much Harry tries to tell me that it doesn�t
matter what the press think, I can�t help but worry. All I have to do is look
back on my history and then start biting my nails, and that�s a disgusting
habit � I�m not a cannibal.

What if the press finds out I was molested at a young age by
a relative? What would they think if they knew what I had to do during the war?
What if they knew how much of the dark arts I know? What if they knew how much
abuse I went through in relationships? What if they knew that I was the one
that stole Harry�s favourite and last chocolate
cookie? Alright, so the last one isn�t that serious, but it�s still giving me
the guilt trip.

Harry really holds way too much trust in me. He really
shouldn�t expect me to be his one and only. He has told me once that it�s only
me he wants to live with, but I hardly reckon we�d reach marriage, he�d give up
on me way before then, probably get bored. I wouldn�t blame him.

It�s hard to see how he can find me� perfect. I�m anything
but perfect. And if I had known that I would think of myself like this when I
was in Hogwarts, I�d probably try anything to deny it. But it�s the truth, I�m not
perfect. I have deep dark secrets. I�ve
seen so many horrible things that I still get nightmares. I�m anything but
perfect. And yet with all my faults Harry seems to see me as the perfect angel.
He really has a delusional mind.

I hate it when I think like this, when I put myself down so
much. But sometimes I just find it so hard to think well about myself. Sure, my
life hasn�t been complete crap after another. I�ve had a lot of good times.

I saved a lot of people during the war,
I helped a lot of people in school with exams and homework. I�ve gone on
holidays, met some really nice people, I�ve even had about three really good
relationships where I wasn�t abused in the least.

It�s actually really weird how it�s mostly the bad things in
your life that stands out to you when you look back on it, it�s hard to look
back and only see the good things, I should know, I�ve tried.

I really do enjoy being with Harry, he�s introduced me to a
lot of his friends, he�s brought me into his world and made me be more open
with myself. I really do love him for that.

But in the end of all my train of thoughts, from the bedroom
to the shower to the lounge room, can I see myself living with Harry? I know
I�d like to, but can he handle me? I seriously do go through mood swings like
the second hand on a clock. I�m a difficult person to understand and a very
demanding person too.

I remember once Granger� or Weasley as she is now, she had
once told me it�s like a challenge, and Harry sees me as a challenge, as
someone that will keep him on his toes and make everyday a different day and
every hour a different hour. She told me that I have some way of bringing the
full emotion out in Harry, when he�s happy, sad, angry
and whatnot, I�m able to bring him to full life. Though that�s a big
compliment, and probably a little true, it did make me think about what she
said, about the part of me being a challenge to Harry.

I know, I know, I�m sinking into negative thoughts again.
But I can�t help it, Harry gives me everything and anything� to a degree, he
didn�t give me that pair of jeans I wanted, but he does treat me like I�m
priceless, and he has never taken me for granted, he�s always keeping me
interested and he�s always surprising me, so what more can I ask for?
Seriously� nothing, I�m happy.

I frown as I come back out of my thoughts� my chocolate is luke warm� I�ve been thinking too
much again. Might as well quickly drink it and get back to bed, before I end up
staying up all night and then get crabby at work.

Quickly drinking the hot coco and rinsing the mug out, I
make my way slowly back to Harry�s bedroom, and if I agree to his request, our
bedroom.

Slipping into the room and making sure to slowly and quietly
close the door behind me, I sneak over to the bed, keeping my eyes on Harry as
I do.

I have no idea why I�m sneaking though, there�s no point in
sneaking when it comes to Harry and sleeping, he�s like the dead, I can�t wake
him up� well most times it�s like that. In a way it shows you how safe he
feels. It�s like animals, if they feel safe � take a horse for example � if the
horse feels safe where it is, it will lie down and sleep, because it has no
fears of being attacked by dingoes or anything like that, if it didn�t feel
safe it�ll sleep standing. Same with cats, if they feel safe they�d allow
themselves to fall into a deep sleep.

Harry�s the same, he sleeps deeply, and it�s close to
impossible to wake him up, even if I want to. It�s not so cool if there was a
fire or something life threatening and I can�t wake him, that�d be hard. But
hey, he�s had a hard day at work and all that, he deserves to sleep.

As I approach the bed I can see Harry, the sheets are up
over his shoulder, he himself is lying on his side, one hand curled up on the
pillow in front of him while he uses the other like a pillow, it�s adorable the way he sleeps. His fingers curl in, his
hair splayed over the pillows and over his face, his lashes heavy and every now
and again you can see his eyes moving beneath his lids as they follow his
dream, his lips are always parted a little, he never snores and what�s best is
that he homes in on the closest heat source.

And that�s exactly what happened when I climbed under the
blanket - after ridding most of my clothes - he shifts right over to me and his
arm automatically drapes over my waist and his face nuzzling up into my hair.

�You okay?� Of all the days! This man can give me a heart
attack.

I shift, turning my gaze to meet sleepy green. He looks only
half awake, but he manages to keep his eyes open and locked with mine as his
arm tightens a bit.

�Why do you want me to live with you?� I seriously don�t
know where all my insecure questions come from. Where ever it is they never
check with me before they decide to come out.

Harry seems to wake up a bit more as he blinks away most of
his sleep and then kisses my forehead. �Because I love you, and I want you to
be close to me� he murmurs, his voice still laced with sleep.

I frown a little, and roll onto my side so I can look at him
properly. �But why? I�ve never given you a reason, and
I�m always criticising your house and the way you decorate� I say in a quiet
voice.

Harry gives me a sleepy smile as his eyes close, �I know you
don�t mean it� well most of it. I�m willing to put up with your moods and
criticising all the same though, it wouldn�t be a proper relationship if we
liked everything about the other� he states. His arm pulls me closer as his
other hand tugs the blankets over us.

I really don�t understand him sometimes. He always looked
like an idiot� a hot idiot, but an idiot all the same. But sometimes he has
really good responses and advice. I watch him silently as his eyes flicker
closed, his breathing already falling into its sleeping pattern.

Thinking back over his words I can�t help but smile and kiss
his parted lips. Snuggling in closer to him and closing my eyes I allow myself
to fall asleep, feeling secure and more at ease then I had felt a few minutes
ago.

I think I may have
found Harry�s answer. I don�t know. All I know is that I�m starting to lean
towards the idea of living with him.
