Why Do You Even Care?
(----------------)
Disclaimer: I really don’t see the point in these. I think we all know that I
don’t own the damn thing. Except for my pathetic girlish fantasies…but, it’s
what gets me through my sleepless nights.
Here's chapter 8! Yah! Thank you everyone for all
my reviews!! They make me so Happy!!
Now, I do understand…it has been…awhile since I
updated. Don’t hate me. I got distracted! I made the high school softball team
and we have practice school day from 4-6pm and then of coarse homework…which
actually I don’t do… And I’m grounded for skipping class and lying about it! It
blows. I’m trying, I’m sorry!!! Forgive thee, ye faithful reviewers.
Well, not much else to say except prepare yourself
and enjoy!

Chapter
8
The Halloween Banquet was quick, nothing too
special, just the same as every other year. Though, to everyone's delight and
the teachers' dismay, Dumbledore gave out big bags of candy too each student.
"Something tells me it's going to be a long
night Mrs. Norris, a very long night." Filch said unhappily, petting his
precious cat near the Great Hall door.
"Alright everyone, enjoy
yourselves, but do not leave the dorms. I expect no trouble-making
tonight." He eyed the students for a moment and then continued. "You
may return to your Common Rooms now."
Everyone filed out the doors quickly, but
excitedly. It wasn't everyday one was given the opportunity for an all-nighter,
without the prefects getting on one's arse.
Harry was walking with Ron and Hermione back to
the Gryffindor rooms when he spotted an unmistakable blond haired boy pass by.
Their gazes met. Draco broke it off first, leaving.
Harry's mouth curved in a smile; he'd be meeting the other soon.
"Oi, this is great!"
Ron said excitedly, waving the candy around.
"It's not like you need any more
energy." Hermione rolled her eyes.
"I'm not so sure about that…" Ron said,
smirking as he lowered his lips down to the nape of Hermione's neck.
"Ron!" She hissed, pushing him away, an
apparent flush highlighting her cheeks. "Stop it!"
"You're no fun." Ron teased.
Harry took this as a good time to sneak away, but
he only made it so far without his lack of presence being noticed.
"Hey Harry, where are you
going this time?" Ron complained.
"I…uh…well…I'll see you guys later!" He
said hurriedly.
"Harry wait!"
They said in unison, chasing their mysterious friend.
Harry was already running while ducking corners
and people. Feeling the lack of their footsteps, he knew they had lost him a
while back. He moved down one last corner and there it was; his destination.
"Well, hello Harry." A kind voice
chimed, a caw following shortly afterwards.
"Hello Harmony, did Draco
make it here?" Harry questioned, through heavy breaths.
"Oh yes, he seemed better, but still sad. Are
you helping him Harry?" Harmony was quite blunt in her ways, might have
been part of her appeal.
"I'm trying to." He said earnestly.
She giggled, casting him a glance full of hidden
innuendoes. "Password?"
"Revadenia…and why
did you look at me like that?" Harry questioned her suspiciously, but his
only answer was the portrait swinging open. He grumbled and entered the room. A
cloud of smoke overwhelmed his senses as he stepped into the room.
"Y'know Draco, you could at least open a window." Harry
stated, coughing, wrenching open the pane of glass that allowed some oxygen in.
When he looked back over Draco was sitting on the
bed, reading it seemed. When he looked up and felt eyes on him, he quickly
threw the romance novel across the room.
Harry just stared at him, tilting his head to the
side.
"Not a word Potter, not one damn word." Draco completed his drag and crushed it, throwing it in the
trash.
Harry was starting to feel the effects of the syndrome
commonly known as 'Sugar-High'. Being deprived of candy during his years with
the Dursleys, he had built up little immunity to the
disease and was struck hard. It seemed the Great-And-Famous-Harry
Potter-Who-Must-Have-His-Name-And-All-Other-Words-Surrounding-It-Capitalized
had a weakness. Before he fell to the effects of the illness, Harry harbored
one last rational thought: They should put warnings on candy...
Suddenly, without caution, Harry did a running
jump onto the bed, causing it to creak and sag.
"Potter! What the hell are you doing?" Draco
demanded, though it seemed his only answer was Harry opening the sack of candy
they were given. It was filled with all different types. The normal, joke type
candy, but to Harry's surprise there was Muggle candy
as well. Must have been Dumbledore's doing.
Harry fingers tingled and he moved them back and
forth searching for a starter candy. He had proved it once with Ron sometime in
the third year. He found one, a delicious muggle
chocolate. He opened the wrapper rapidly and devoured the sweet in one bite. He
smiled and started to giggle immediately.
Poor Draco's eyes were
glued to the sight with horrified fascination. He wasn't sure if he should run,
hide, or maybe if he didn't move, he wouldn't be seen. It was probably the
absolute most terrifying thing he'd ever seen. Harry's age reduced by ten years
and he was - for the love of Salazar- giggling.
Giggling. That's a sight I thought I would never see.
But, by the time Draco
escaped his thoughts, it seemed the green-eyed 'child' had eaten half of the
bag.
"Merlin Harry, that's got to be a good
quarter stone bag! I don't know how you did it! Hey!
Are you listening to me? Harry! Would you take a break to breathe once in a awhile? HARRY!" Draco
screamed, slightly panicky now.
"Hm?" Harry questioned, his mouth full
of candy of all sorts. He chewed for a minute or so and swallowed. His eyes unfocused scarily. "Hey Draky! I was wondering why you’re not eating your
candy! Did you know I love candy? Candy is so good… I could eat it all the
time; I love it so, so much. It makes me happy! Are you happy? I bet your candy
would make you happy!" Harry giggled, talking in a very fast, non-stop
manner.
Draco's eyes widened in horror. I would like to take back my last statement. Giggling
is not the scariest thing I've ever seen. This is. And were
there even words coming from his mouth?
And wait one minute! DRAKY! What the bloody
hell?!
"Did you just call me Draky?"
Draco asked, making a face.
"That I did, I did!! I think it's cute! Draky, Draky, Draky!" Harry
hummed.
"Cute!? Potter do you…"
"Oh! That makes me want to sing…Draky, Draky, Draky! Dum dee dum.
Hm?
I'm bored with that song, I need a new one. Do you know any songs? Do you like
to sing? Oh! You have to try this candy, it's my favorite." Harry, at
unreadable speeds stuffed the chocolate in Draco's
mouth. "Is it good? Is it? Is it? Is it? Is it!"
Harry bounced.
"Uh…other than the fact
that you practically stuffed it down my throat, yes it is pretty good. Well, you know, I think it's getting pretty late, I'd
better go." Draco said neutrally, keeping his
tone even in case Harry too it in his head to contest that fact. He slipped his
cloak on.
"NO! You can't leave me! I want you here!
I'll get bored if you leave! Stay! PLEASE!" Harry pleaded, wrapping
himself around Draco's leg.
"Oh for the love of…"
"DON'T LEAVE!" Harry screamed.
"Shh…alright! I'll stay! Just keep it down!" Draco
looked down helplessly.
"YAH…er I mean
yah!" Harry grinned. Draco could do nothing but
sigh.
"Uh…Harry…would you mind getting off my
leg?" Draco asked.
Harry made a disappointed face. "Oh
alright." He said sullenly, slowly pulling himself from Draco. The blond Slytherin took
his cloak off. He then kicked away his shoes and socks and undid his tie while
slipping off his vest.
"Woohoo! Take it off!" Harry beamed, eating Draco's candy, for he had finished his own.
"Alright that's it, I am leaving." Draco said, as he was about to put his vest back on.
"No! You said you wouldn't!" Harry dived
at Draco, knocking the poor boy over (again). He took
Draco's shoes, socks, cloak, tie, and vest. He threw
them into the bathroom and locked the door.
Draco just couldn't believe his eyes,
the Gryffindor had the most extreme case of a sugar high he had ever seen! He's
going to drive me to drink…okay well, I drink anyway…but you know. The
light-haired teen glanced over and the crazed boy who was already back on the
bed eating candy. When he looked next to him he saw Harry's empty bed. If he
already finished his…and now he's trying to devourer mine. He CAN'T have any
more candy!
"Alright Harry, you eaten plenty of candy,
I'm cutting you off. Cold turkey." Draco was the one now tilting his head. He didn't know
anyone could widen his or her eyes that much. His mouth followed suit. It was
like Draco had told him someone died.
"Never!" Harry hissed. And not hissing by venomously, meaning hiss
as he impersonated a cat.
"Harry come ON!
You've had over half a stone of candy at least! Is that not enough?! You’re
going to get sick!" Draco yelled.
"Is there ever enough candy? And I really
like candy! I don't want to stop!" Harry whined.
Draco was screaming in his mind, but he let it rest. Taking in a
deep, deep breath and holding it for a while, he finally let it out. Draco opened his relaxed eyes and gave Harry a Malfoy smirk. He pulled out his wand. "Wingardium Leviosa!"
Harry was lifted into the air and placed on the
couch. Quickly, before he could react, Draco muttered
another incantation and a cage surrounded the hyperactive teen. Draco walked over to the bed, quite pleased with himself.
"Draky! Come on! I
don't wanna stay on the couch. DRAKY!"
Harry growled, hopping around like crazy, rattling the bars.
Draco ignored him and picked up the bag of candy, examining it.
"What the hell…" He muttered allowed as he unwrapped
various muggle candies. "Hm…pretty
good, see why you like them. Though I don't know how you eat that much! It's
absolutely impossible."
"You're evil! How can you sit there and eat
it in front of me?!"
Draco only sneered and ate another piece. Harry was bouncing
like crazy now. Draco looked up and was somewhat
startled.
"Harry, stop bouncing or you're going
to…"
CRACK, SNAP, CRASH
"...break the couch." Draco hit his head with his hand. "Merlin,
Potter!"
"Ow! Draky it hurts! You can't let me stay here all night! It's
uncomfortable. I think something poking my leg. Ow!
It's sharp! Make it…"
"Bloody hell Harry, shut up!" Draco shouted, and to his surprise, the Gryffindor did.
"I-I'm…s-sorry." Harry fell silent and
rearranged the debris of the couch to where it was tolerable. He pulled off a
cushion and propped his head. Yawning, he cuddled his head into it.
I guess his sugar high is crashing.
Draco sighed at the sad, pathetic sight. Seeing him rearrange
it, not complaining, it was hard to watch. Strangely, Draco
felt bad for yelling at him. He muttered the counter spell for the cage and the
blue glow fell. Harry still didn't move from his spot.
"Harry come here and sleep
on the bed."
Harry raised his head and beamed, though trying
his hardest not to show it. While Harry took off his own shoes, socks, tie, and
vest, Draco pulled down the covers for them. The
Gryffindor yawned again and climbed onto the bed, cuddling into the covers.
"Thanks." He murmured, falling asleep
before his head hit the pillow.
Draco gazed at the so called 'Wonder-Boy'. To his liking, he
finally saw that he wasn't 'oh-holier-than-thou', and that he was just a normal
teen his age, with maybe a higher than usual – and slightly unhealthy –
addiction to sugar. But, still, he wasn't how he thought he was.
Maybe he really does care…or maybe I'm just
delusional.
Draco sighed, but it soon turned into a yawn. Feeling his eyes
become heavy, he decided not to fight it and then he too drifted off to sleep.
