Part 3
When they entered the Great Hall for dinner, Draco had as much space as he wanted. He let Harry sit and get comfortable before he sat down. He swatted Harry's hands away from the food when the brunette reached for a slice of apple. Harry just looked up at him expectantly as he dropped his hands to the side, one landing softly on Draco's leg for an anchor. Draco felt powerful as those green eyes expanded into large beautiful round orbs encased in dark lashes. He dipped a piece of apple into the caramel sauce just in front of them and then held the piece to Harry's lips. His fingers were wet from the juices, but he held them still as Harry licked them clean, one slow lick at a time. He was surprised to find a similar piece held to his own lips, he wondered how he had missed Harry's hand move. He opened his mouth to take the fruit, and was entranced at how much better the food tasted, with a hint of Harry added.
Harry wanted so badly to return the favor and was awash in heat as his own fingers were dutifully cleaned by the amazing tongue of Draco. Harry groaned and then sighed when his fingers were clean.
They ate the entire dinner that way, feeding each other, and not looking away. Most of the hall had gone quiet, not a word was whispered. There were a few groans, and some not too subtle moans at various tables. But Draco and Harry were not distracted.
When they were finished, they stood to leave, only then noticing several students blushing while looking in their direction. Harry noted many gazes that were filled with darker emotions. He turned his eyes back to Draco, his peace and comfort. They rounded the Slytherin table and headed towards the door, when there was a loud knocking from the head table. Dumbledore had moved to the podium, and was trying to get everyone's attention. Draco and Harry paused, Harry then maneuvered them to sitting in between Ron and Hermione for the speech that was to come. Draco wrapped an arm possessively around Harry as they waited.
"I have just been reminded that I was to inform you all that there will be a ball here in the great hall in just a fortnight. Attendance will be limited to fourth years and above. Small appropriate house parties will be arranged for the younger years by their head of house." Albus stated, "It is my sincerest wish that we try to see past house rivalries and entertain the thoughts of trying to mingle outside our respective houses for this event." His twinkling eyes landed on the couple of the century sitting amid the lion’s den. Harry beamed at the headmaster and then smiled at Draco.
Draco for all his cold and calculating nature was scorched by Harry's radiant smile. Something deeper than passion, indeed. He was falling head over heels for his green eyed kitten, and really he probably had been since they met. They were lost in themselves as the hall erupted in cheers and clapping.
When they left the great hall, Draco suggested they visit the surly potions master to see if they could make better sleeping arrangements. The sour man was no help, only advising that students were to remain in their dorms during their tutelage at Hogwarts. Only special circumstances could cause a change in the current arrangements. And according to Snape, "Dating is not a special circumstance... as so many students find themselves similarly attached, but soon fall back into good sense and break it off." The trademark smirk followed the last line. Harry bristled, but Draco only slid his hand down Harry's arm, pushing Harry further behind him.
"This is more, Uncle Severus. I don't need you making Harry uncomfortable. He has been through enough as it is, as a professor, you should at least try to be sympathetic in your addresses." Draco drawled with an edge of steel to his voice.
Severus narrowed his eyes, but the state did not make Draco budge or flinch.
"Whatever, the rules still stand." Severus stated in a softer tone.
Draco's posture relaxed slightly as he turned and walked them both out.
"Well for tonight anyway, we will have to go back to our dorms. We can work something out, maybe with the support of our friends. Ok?" Draco said, letting the brunette walk beside him, but not taking his arm from around the slender waist.
"I figured it wouldn't be that easy. I was hoping though. It feels different now, when we are apart." Harry said, he looked up at Draco.
"I know, maybe Granger will know something we don't." Draco offered. Harry's eyes brightened and he smiled another brilliant smile that had Draco leaning down to softly kiss those sweet lips.
Draco walked Harry all the way to the portrait of the Fat Lady. He turned and let himself drown in green eyes once more, before letting his hands anchor him as he stole a deeper kiss.
Harry's world spun and focused down to his lips and the inferno sweeping through him as they kissed. He clung to Draco's robes, trying to keep his knees from buckling.
"Harry, baby." Draco breathed raggedly as they pulled apart, "Tell me if anyone does or says anything you don't like. I'll take care of it in the morning, at breakfast."
Harry stared into the steel of Draco's eyes and nodded. He let his hand wander up and caress Draco's bottom lip, and sighed. Soon he would say the words, he could feel them now, swirling around inside his head.
Draco watched as Harry disappeared behind the portrait and turned away, only to turn back when he heard Harry's scream.
"Pendergast!" Draco screamed the password at the Fat Lady who looked pissed to have to open to him.
He stepped in only to see Harry laying frozen on the floor, Seamus bent over the boy holding his jaw open as Ginny rounded the sofa with a vial in her hand.
Draco's spells roared out of his mouth like thunder, "Flipendo!" throwing Seamus off of Harry, quickly followed by "Colloshoo" Making Ginny unable to move her feet.
His silver glare pierced through each person in the room as he moved quickly over to Harry, not even looking down as he cast a "Finite" over the dark haired boy. His eyes dared anyone to move as he bent down to pick up Harry. He cradled his Harry in his arms and walked backwards toward the portrait, which opened for him. Harry just barely registered what was going on before the rush of everything hit him and he passed out.
Draco whispered a quick lightening charm, and made his way down to Professor McGonagall's office. He banged on the door with his foot.
The professor opened it looking like she was about to retire for the evening, a tartan shawl around her shoulders, and her greying hair falling from her head, cascading around her shoulders, making her look a few years younger.
Her eyes fell on Harry and she opened the door wider. "Mr. Malfoy... Care to explain why you are carrying Mr. Potter into my office?"
"It is simple Professor, He was accosted in his own common room. I found him stunned under Seamus Finnegan, and Ginny Weasley approaching him with a vial of liquid. As their head of house, it is your responsibility to devise a solution. I would offer to let him share my rooms." Draco's ice stare met the professor's questioning green one.
"Stay here please Mr. Malfoy. I will return momentarily with both students." She stated and walked quickly out of the office.
Draco turned toward the chairs in the office and expanded on to sit both him and Harry comfortably. He was raging on the inside. Seamus had touched Harry, and that was an offence he would suffer for later. Ginny was a meddling witch that would also be dealt with. He maneuvered Harry into a sitting position and let the darker head rest under his shoulder as he held him close. No wonder Harry wanted protection. Even his so called friends would not even let him make his own decisions, without issue. He stroked his hands through the inky hair and let his thumb play near Harry's ear as they waited.
When the door opened Draco tightened his hold, and brought out his wand, just in case.
"HE ATTACKED US, PROFESSOR!" Ginny screamed, pointing at Draco.
"Yea, threw me body clear across the room." Seamus accused.
Draco sat calmly.
"And what of Mr. Potter?" Professor McGonagall asked, clearly reminding them of why they were there.
"Malfoy dosed him with a love potion of course, I was trying to administer the antidote. But of course he struggled." Ginny said defiantly.
"SIT." Professor McGonagall, said louder than normal, scaring both students into sitting in separate chairs.
"Harry, babe... Wake up, the Professor needs to talk to you." Draco whispered into Harry's ear. He continued soothing strokes on Harry's back, as he nudged the darker boy to wake up.
Harry's eyes fluttered open and he cringed seeing Ginny and Seamus across the room, but settled when Draco whispered his name.
"Mr. Potter, it seems there is some issue with your choice of partner. These two swear you have been dosed by a love potion. Mr. Malfoy seems to be under the impression that you are in need of protection. Can you please allow me to scan you? I need you to sit away from Mr. Malfoy for just a brief moment." the professor stated.
Draco helped Harry sit up, then stood up just to the side of Harry so that Harry would see him.
The professor swished her wand and white streams of magic flowed out and surrounded Harry, and glowed green. Another flick and Yellow strings flowed out of the wand next and settled over Harry, it glowed and pulsed and then in an explosion of gold it encapsulated Draco before thrusting them close with the pull of magic. Harry caught Draco, not letting him fall, as the gold dissipated.
"See... Draco did something, right? That’s why the magic pushed him." Ginny's voice was like a screech. Draco glared at the girl with such force she sat back further in her chair and grimaced.
"Actually, the first spell was to reveal any spells or potions. For which Harry has none. The second was to see if there was any type of bond formed on Harry. That is something that you won’t be privy to. Had you succeeded, Ms. Weasley in forcing Harry to ingest an anti-love potion remedy, without a potion in effect, you could have made him violently sick for quite a while. If anything, Mr. Malfoy saved Harry. And you from a much worse detention. Each of you have three weeks detention with Mr. Filch." She stated eyeing their faces, "Three times a week." And she watched their eyes widen. "And that will be 50 points each from Gryffindor. And 50 points to Slytherin."
She eyed the two students with a steady gaze. "You two are dismissed."
They shot glares at Draco as they left, and he knew that he would be dealing with them later. He returned his gaze onto the professor who was staring at them with an interesting expression.
"Mr. Malfoy, you have the right as the protector in your bond, to exact revenge to any who sleight your bonded. I am not sure how you two bonded in such a way, but there is a deep connection that suggests something has been hidden for a longtime. I assume you are unaware?" She asked.
"We are both unaware of the nature of our bond, though we both can feel it. Harry asked me this afternoon to be with him, and I consented to his plight." Draco stated, shifting to hold Harry in a protective position.
"Mr. Potter, it seems you have invoked something not seen in many years. Centuries ago, there were many arranged marriages, and some of those were arranged and violent, others were inadvertent. Some witches and wizards required sanctuary, and they invoked a sanctuary bond, but the only times it was done unknowingly was if there was a pre-existing bond, such as love." Her eyes had a twinkle similar to that of Dumbledore.
Draco looked down into Harry's wide green eyes and was almost lost in their depths. He could see the love shining through, and it took his breath away. He only wished his eyes could show the emotion, it was foreign to him, but the smile he received made him believe it was possible after all.
"So as you both are sharing a love bond with a sanctuary bond, you two are entitled to certain rights. Shared quarters, retribution for insults or actions. Mr. Potter careful not to be touched, the bond will force Mr. Malfoy to have to respond. I trust you to keep the magic to a nominal level for in school, and appropriate for the circumstances?" She said as she looked at Draco intently.
"Of course, Professor. I think I should have already shown my restraint." He stated.
"Indeed you have Mr. Malfoy." She stated, then turned her gaze back at Harry.
"The Sanctuary bond, will not afford you a whole lot of independence, Mr. Potter." She stated, waiting for that to sink in.
"Professor, I have given all I have needed to give to this world. I no longer have anything left to give, except to Draco, so I have no need for independence. I have exactly what I wished for, right here." He said, letting his eyes widen as he looked up at Draco from under his lashes. Draco inhaled sharply.
The professor only nodded, "You may take him to your room Draco. His things will arrive shortly, and by tomorrow evening your room will have stretched to accommodate you both."
Harry and Draco walked towards the dungeons. Draco stopped in front of the entrance of the Slytherin Common Room. Harry raised an eyebrow, but Draco just smiled a sweet smile back at him.
"I think it's time to introduce you to some of my friends." Draco stated with his trademark smirk that just sent butterflies into Harry's stomach.
As they entered into the common room, Pansy was lounging with a book in her lap, Blaise was across from her and Greg was snoozing it seemed, using his Herbology book as a pillow.
Pansy was the first to look up, Harry could not read her expression at all. He stepped closer to Draco who just adjusted his posture to allow it.
Pansy stood up, causing the others to stand as well. Draco moved them closer, and Harry tensed. Draco's arm stroked in a soothing manner. Blaise raised an eyebrow.
"So, you're ready to talk. Yea?" Blaise drawled.
"Harry, is mine. That is what you need to know first above all else." Draco stated coolly. His friends meant a lot to him, but he was prepared to do battle should any of them hurt Harry.
"Draco, dear, we gathered that from this afternoon. And we know better than to interfere." Pansy said sweetly, her hand out in a placating manner. She knew full well what happens if you anger a dragon. Draco agreed to date her last year for about a month. She wanted more freedom, and well, he was not so obliging, so she decided that, Malfoy or not, it was over. He was too intense for her.
Harry looked up and noticed a bit of emotion in Pansy's eyes, and he growled. His hand came up to cover his mouth and he looked back at Draco with a hint of fear in his eyes.
Draco wanted to melt, those eyes, they told him everything about Harry. They spoke of love, longing, and right now jealousy mixed with fear of the unknown. His kitten had claws too. That was a very warming feeling.
Pansy on the other hand backed away, while stating "Nothing, Draco and I had nothing. I am happy with where I am." While her voice was clear, her eyes were edged with a dark fear.
Draco smiled, "it seems we have something in common babe." he said teasing his love. Harry's eyes softened, and Draco had to remember why they were there, in order to not get lost in the sweetness before him.
Blaise coughed, and then grimaced when Draco shot him a steely glare.
"Just so you know, and can look it up, we have inadvertently formed a Sanctuary bond, where I am the protector. So you can talk, look, but don't touch!" Draco threw it out there.
They all nodded and settled back down onto the sofas.
Draco started a conversation, and focused it on soft non-controversial topics, Harry chimed in a few times. He was starting to feel more comfortable. Draco was safe, and as long as he was with him, he felt perfectly content and at peace.
