Harry slowly came too. Looking around he found that he was back in his bed. As everything came back into focus, he could hear arguing going on in the common room. He climbed out of bed and when to go see what was going on. He stopped to listen on the landing overlooking the room.
“It’s been three days Draco! We have to go get Pomphrey!” Hermione yelled, her face all red and scrunched up in worry.
“No, we don’t. We know what is wrong with him and she isn’t going to do anything differently than we are. Harry used a lot of power and the only way he is going to recover is with rest. We have been giving him nutrient potions to keep him strong and that is all we can do.” Harry could see Draco was struggling to not default to his old ways and put his mask back on.
“It shouldn’t take this long,”
“Considering what he did, I don’t expect him to wake up for another day or two. He locked down the entire school and then unlocked it. That takes a lot of power and if he hadn’t had the necklace that connected him even more so to the school, it would have done more than just knock him out for a few days. His connection to the school isn’t that strong yet and until it is he will continue to pass out when he does things like that.”
“If he isn’t awake by dinner I am getting Pomphrey. I don’t care what you say.” The two were glaring daggers at each other. Harry couldn’t help but smile at how protective Hermione was, even though it looked like Draco knew more about the connection than Hermione did.
“If I didn’t know any better, I’d think you two were about to start snogging.” Harry said with a chuckle. All eyes snapped to him. Before he knew it, he was surrounded by his friends. The girls were kissing his cheeks and cooing over him. The guys were patting his back and asking if he needed anything.
“Food would be nice.” Harry said as they all made their way back to the common room. Hermione went to the kitchen to make them all something to eat while the other caught Harry up on what was going on.
“Dumbledore will be going to court next weekend. Bella the week after. Both are being charged with being in league with Voldie and Dumbledore is also being charged with student endangerment.” Draco said. He wanted to grab Harry’s hand and pull him close. He wanted to do so many things, but not in front of everyone.
“Good. How is everyone taking it?” Harry asked as he grabbed a sandwich.
“Better than we thought. The entire school is now on your side Harry. The students who backed Dumbledore can no longer hold faith in his ideals and those who were on You-know-who’s side don’t want to work with someone who would welcome a traitor. The war has shifted in your favor overnight.” Hermione stated. Harry sat in stunned silence. They could end this sooner than he thought. They had every Horcrux, minus the snake, and could destroy them at their pleasure. That would leave the final battle and the rebuild afterwards.
“We have work to do. Draco, write you mother and ask her if she would like to be the Transfiguration Professor. I want her here asap if she will fill the post. Hermione, I want every Horcrux we have. They will all be destroyed today. Ginny, Neville, Luna, I want the three of you to spread the word, the final battle is happening here and I want anyone who is old enough, 14 and up, and willing to meet me in the Great Hall Friday night at 8pm. Professors included. This ends on our terms, not his and I want this school and its students and their families safe.” Everyone nodded, finished their food and set out to full fill their tasks. Harry sat back and closed his eyes. He would finish this. He would have as normal of a life as he could. He let out a sigh. Opening his eyes, he got up and went back to his room to shower and change. When he walked out of his bathroom, he saw Draco sitting on his bed.
“I floo called mother. She will be here Friday night.”
“Thank you Draco.” Harry said as he walked to his closet. He could feel Draco’s eyes following him. Harry stepped into his closet and dressed in his favorite pair of jeans and a plain black tee. When he stepped out. Draco was standing right in front of him.
“Do you have any idea how worried I was? How worried we all were?”
“I can figure it out from the argument I heard this morning.” Draco took a step forward, closing all the space that was between them. Draco reached out and tangled his hand in the hair at Harry’s nape. He leaned his forehead against Harry’s, wrapping his other arm around his waist holding him close.
“I never want to feel that kind of worry ever again. I know, being with you, that I am bound to feel it again.” Draco sighed and leaned his head back.
“There are so many things I want to do and say to you that show just how scared I was. I think only one will do though.” In the blink of an eye, Draco had Harry in a desperate kiss. Harry could feel all the fear and worry that was behind it. He wrapped his arms around Draco’s neck and returned the kiss with just as much fervor. Draco’s hand tightened in Harry’s hair as he ran his tongue across Harry’s lips. Harry let him in. Draco explored every corner, dragging a guttural moan from Harry. He kissed his way across Harry’s jaw and down his neck. Harry was a boneless, groaning mess. He had never felt anything like it before. His blood was boiling. Everywhere Draco kissed little sparks of white heat lit up his skin. Harry tangled his hands in Draco’s hair. They were startled by a knock on the door. Harry watched as several emotions crossed Draco’s face.
“We should continue this later.” Harry said before placing one last kiss on Draco’s cheek. When he opened the door, Hermione was waiting. She looked him over and blushed.
“Oh God Harry I am so sorry! I didn’t mean to interrupt!” Harry chuckled.
“It’s ok Hermione. What’s up?”
“Well, everyone has finished their tasks. Luna and Neville made flyers about Friday night and Ginny magicked them all over the school. All the Horcrux’s are in the common room waiting for you.”
“Good. Let’s take care of them in the Forest. I don’t want them in the school when we destroy them.” The three walked back to the common room to gather the Horcrux’s. Harry knew that as soon as they were destroyed, Voldemort was going to know and he was going to be very angry.
I am so sorry this chapter took so long. It was a struggle. I'd start in one direction and then erase the whole thing because it didn't flow right. I hope you like it!
