Teddy Bear

The next morning right after the sun had risen, Harry
came to a decisoun. He was just causing himself and
Severus pain by being here. Severus didn\'t understand
what was going on, and Harry couldn\'t enlighten him.
Harry rose quietly the next morning and packed up
his belongings. He then quickly scribbled out a note
to Draco and Lucius that he went back to Hogwarts.
He didn\'t bother to explain why.


Harry left the note on the kitchen table where Molly
would find it later and would give it to Lucius or
Draco. He then left and apparated back to Hogsmead.
He sighed in a tired kind of way.


He would haveto take a sleeping potion when he
got back to Hogwarts. He began to head back to
the castle when something collided with the back
of his head. For a brief moment, Harry felt pain and
like he was falling before a peaceful, painlessness
made itself known to Harry and he sunk into darkness.

********************************************

When Draco woke up, he sensed that something was
wrong, but how could something be wrong? Both of
his mates were lying in the same bed as him, so
what could possibly be wrong?


Draco shook his head and got up, careful not to
disturb his two mates. He smiled fondly when the two
of them snuggled against each other when Draco\'s
warmth was taken away. Then he frowned, feeling
a slight tingle of jealousy but he shoved that down.


All three of them were mates. These two weren\'t
going to run off without him. He made it clear to
them yesterday that if they left him or were away
from him for more than two months, he would quite
literally die from a broken heart.


Draco then turned away from his mates, pushing
away those thoughts and began to dress silently.
Once finished, he glanced at his two mates to
make sure that they were still sleep soundly before
he left and went downstairs.


He found Molly Weasely crying at the dining room
table. Draco instantly felt worried. This was his new
mother in law.


\"Molly, is something wrong?\" Draco asked, almost
forgetting not to call her Mrs. Weasely like she had
insisted on last night when she learned that Ron
and Hermione were his mates.


\"Oh! Harry\'s gone, dear. It\'s just that tonight we were
going to throw him a late birthday party since no one
threw him a party on his actual birthday.\" Molly
explained, wiping her tears away. She handed the
note to Draco. \"I\'m sorry for reading it, but I didn\'t
know it was from Harry when I picked it up. It\'s
addressed to you and Lucius. I better start breakfast.\"
Molly stood up, wiping away still falling tears.


Draco scanned the letter, not understanding why
Harry would leave. It had been his idea that they come
and visit the Weaselys in the first place, which both
Draco and Lucius were both incredibly grateful for.


Dear Draco or Lucius,
I haven\'t been feeling that well, and I seem to
be causing a disturbance with Severus. I think I
might be stirring up memories of my father and it\'s
freaking him out. I\'ll stay in the dungeons and I\'ll
practice on controling my pheromones. Please
enjoy the rest of your guys\' stay and I\'m glad that
you guys found your mate.
Tell Charlie, Hermione, and Ron that I said
congradulations.

Love,
Harry


Draco crushed the letter in his hand and went
to his father\'s room. He knocked sharply on the
door and a minute later, Charlie appeared.


\"Is my father awake?\" Draco asked. Charlie
smiled, nodded and opened the door. He was
wearing nothing but his boxers and socks.


\"Is something wrong, Draco?\" Lucius drew his
son\'s gaze to the bed where he was laying,
also clad in only his boxers.


\"Harry left. He said that he wasn\'t feeling all
that well. Here, maybe you can get more out
of his note than I did.\" Draco strode over to
his father and handed over the note, careful
not to inhale too deeply.


Lucius read the note quickly and frowned.
He read it once again, scanning it more
carefully, using all of his years as a spy
to find anything with an alternate meaning
in the note.


\"I think that he\'s a little jealous about us
finding our mates. He snuck away from
the party last night. I saw him, even though
he thought he wasn\'t observed. And I think
that perhaps yesterday morning scared
Harry a little. You know he\'s not one for
physical contact. Waking up to Severus
screaming and finding out that he had slept
with another person. I think that he\'s mostly
scared and left to try avoiding it.\" Lucius
determined. Draco nodded.


\"It makes sense. Remember when he
woke up with me on the floor and how he
freaked out?\" Draco asked. Lucius nodded
sadly. Harry had had a flash back to his
childhood.


\"Poor lad. Well, I guess we should give
him a couple of days peace. You know,
to let him deal with his emotions. He is
new to all of this.\" Lucius added. Draco
nodded and left.


\"What was that about?\" Charlie asked,
crawling back up onto the bed with his
new mate, cuddling right up to him.


\"Which part?\" Lucius asked, nuzzling
his partner\'s neck.


\"The physical contact and waking up
next to Draco.\" Charlie replied, kissing
his mate\'s jaw bone.


\"This isn\'t widely known, but Harry was
abused as a child, and seems to be
afraid of all physical contact. And one
night, Harry and Draco fell asleep on
the floor, and during the night Draco
cuddled up against Harry. When they
woke up, Harry freaked out with Draco
hugging him, and screamed, quickly
backing away into a corner. It took me
an hour to bring him out of his flashback
and two more to cox him out of the
corner and to quit crying.\" Lucius told
Charlie about that incident. Charlie pulled
away, looking sad.


\"Poor Harry.\" Charlie said softly.

**************************************************

Harry woke up somewhere dark, somewhere
cold, and his entire body hurt like hell. He
smelled blood, someone else\'s blood. He
saw movement in the corner of his eye and
he turned to see Remus Lupin kneeling
next to him, blood leaking from a large
gash on his forehead and a busted lip. He
was bruised pretty badly, and had obviously
been beaten up by more than one person.


\"Where are we?\" Harry whispered. Remus
reached over and pulled Harry into a hug.
Harry had only allowed Remus to hug him
after Sirius had died. It was how they got
through it.


\"It\'ll be alright Harry.\" Remus promised
him. Harry allowed the shiver that he
had been suppressing out. Remus tightened
his grip on Harry.


\"A death eater has us, right?\" Harry
whispered, scared. Remus nodded.


\"Bellatrix Black.\" Remus whispered. \"And
McNair.\" Harry smelt something akin to
fear.


\"Remus, what\'s wrong?\" Harry asked,
his own fear mounting.


\"The full moon is in three days.\" Remus
whispered softly. Harry felt his stomach
plummet. \"And no one will come looking
for me for two more weeks. I was supposed
to be going on a vacation to visit my brother
and sister in law in America.\" He explained.
Harry felt all of his hope disappear.


\"No one will come looking for me for five
more days.\" He told Remus. He could
smell Remus\'s dispair.


\"Two days too late.\" Remus whispered,
hopelessness evident in his voice. Harry
was going to die by the hands of his own
godfather. And there was nothing that
they could do about it.
