"Look at that bloody git Malfoy! He's sneering at you again!" said Ron in annoyance.

He merely shrugged and continued walking down the hall, ignoring the irritating exchange of glares between his best mate and Malfoy.

"Hey Potter! Off to screw things up again with your saintly powers?" The blonde teased.

"Sod off, Malfoy." Said Harry calmly. "Let's go."

The two nodded and followed their friend.

"Harry, don't take this the wrong way but it seems to me that Draco is acting like a kid teasing his crush." Hermione giggled, though the blonde still annoyed her to no end.

"Oh shut up, Hermione." The raven-haired boy replied, rolling his eyes as a small smile tugged his lips.

oOo

Harry stirred awake only to find himself safely tucked in bed with a new change of clothes. He sat right up and glanced around the familiar room looking for a certain blonde. Much to his dismay, the older lad was nowhere to be found. His lips slightly pouted in disappointment.

His mood claimed to be much lighter than it had ever been before. Upon recalling the recent events, he remembered that Astoria Greengrass is permanently out of their lives after facing the wrath of an angered Draco (which by the way was beyond scary) though, behind the light side of the events was the memory of being tormented by his past with the Dursleys. Nothing but pain and fear was present in that house. Remembering it again sent shivers down his spine but the thought of being in Draco's presence was comforting enough to calm him.

He was staring into space when the door suddenly opened, he turned to see whom the intruder was and was glad to see the person he wanted to see the most. "Draco!"

Harry practically bounced off the bed and pounced on Draco in delight.

"Woah!" the blonde exclaimed, startled by the suddenness of the child. He caught the child and easily cradled him.

Harry snuggled his head on his shoulder and purred lightly upon feeling the presence of his Draco.

"You seem happy, little one." The blonde chuckled, stroking the child's hair. He nuzzled his nose on Harry's soft hair, inhaling the sweet scent of the young lad.

"Yeah... you're here now so I'm very happy!" Harry beamed, "I love you!"

Draco smiled lovingly at him. "I love you too, my little kitten."

Harry meowed earning a chuckle from the blonde followed by a short tickling session. Some squeals and laughs later, the two settled themselves down in a cuddle. Harry's head rested on the older lad's shoulder, while Draco's arms wrapped around his waist.

With a sigh, Draco started, "I'm sorry." He said, tightening his grip around the child.

Harry felt his guardian tense behind him, he didn't know why Draco was apologizing to him; the man did nothing wrong so why apologize?

Sensing the child's confusion, he continued, "I shouldn't have hired Astoria to teach you... it's my fault that you had to go through pain again. I'm really sorry, little one, I promise I will never let anything happen to you ever again." He stated sincerely.

Harry looked up to see the man's sorrowful gaze directed at him, he truly was sorry, he thought as he turned to meet Draco's gaze.

"Please don't say sorry, it's not your fault."

"But—"

He was stopped by the sudden kiss on the lips Harry bestowed upon him; his hand automatically went on the back of Harry's head and gave a push to deepen their kiss.

It did not take long in their kiss for Draco to realize what is happening. The little minx was distracting him from what he was saying! The blonde grinned in their kiss before giving Harry a light push to part their lips; the child mewled in protest but was contented when the older lad pressed their foreheads together.

"I'll forgive you for distracting me you little slytherin, but you have to answer my question," he said softly, staring into the child's beautiful orbs whose attention was solely focused on him as he continued, "Why didn't you tell me that Greengrass was hurting you? I am a bit disappointed that you didn't run to me immediately."

"I was scared that you were going to throw me away." He answered honestly. "I couldn't bear the thought of being hated by you so I decided to keep it to myself.

I would rather endure the pain she was giving me than be thrown away and hated by you."

Draco's heart throbbed painfully. "Beloved, did you have so little trust in me? Had I not shown you how dearly I hold you in my heart?"

Harry closed his eyes and shook his head, "I do trust you..."

"And do you know how much I love you?" the blonde replied, cupping Harry's cheek with his hand. A smile tugged on his lips when Harry leaned lightly on his hand. "When I found you in that alley, I felt the need to take you in my arms and care for you as I am doing right now, I couldn't bear the thought of leaving you cold and alone in that place for I felt something special about you, I was drawn to you by some unseen force and nothing can make me regret the decision to take care of you, my angel. You are beautiful and a bit cheeky but nonetheless, very loveable that I couldn't help but fall for your charm. Harry, I will never throw you away nor will I ever hate you. I love you and that could not be changed by anything."

Harry felt the sincerity of Draco's words. "I'm sorry and I love you too." He replied with equal sincerity. "Next time, I will be sure to tell you as soon as I can."

"There will be no next time, little one. I will allow no such thing." Draco said, determined to keep his words. No harm will find its way to his Harry as long as he lived, heck, even if he's not breathing anymore and has completely lost his body, he would still protect Harry.

oOo

Yesterday...

Draco was certain that he's currently staring into Harry Potter's eyes. There was no doubt about that, seeing the familiar glint and deepness that resided inside those emerald eyes.

The main question was why?

Why is Harry Potter with him in a form a child, holding his hand whilst gazing at him with such familiarity?

"Potter..." he managed to mutter. Their close distance allowed Harry to hear him.

"Yes, Draco."

"Why?" he asked, as he stood up.

Despite the vagueness of the question, the Gryffindor knew exactly what he was referring to. "I don't know." He answered regretfully, still kneeling on the floor.

Betrayal replaced the confusion on Draco's eyes upon processing the scene. Harry noticed the flash of anger that crept its way on the blonde's handsome features.

"Draco?" he said worriedly.

"Is this another one of your miserable attempts to humiliate me?" came the harsh reply from the slytherin.

"No! Why would you think that? Please, calm down!"

"No, Potter! I can't believe you would stoop this low! Toying with my feelings..."

"Just hear me out!" he exclaimed desperately, trying to gain the upper hand of their spiteful conversation.

"No!" Honestly, he didn't really want to hear excuses from Harry. His heart had been crushed and his pride shattered. He can't help but think that Harry sodding Potter played him.

"What, are you going to tell your Gryffindork buddies that you managed to play Draco Malfoy with your little hands? Or are you trying to amuse people by doing this? Because I'm not laughing, Potter!" he spat angrily causing Harry to flinch and tremble at the intensity of his voice.

That was not what he intended to do at all. He himself never knew that he was Harry Potter. That is, until now. His memories of spending time with Draco still remained within him and he's already irrevocably in love with Draco Malfoy. His heart ached painfully at the hurt in Draco's words, despite gaining back his memories his fear of being hated and thrown away still remained.

His eyes flowing with tears, he replied with a trembling voice, "No, Draco that's not it... I—I lo-"

Harry's words were cut by the blonde, "Get out. Get out before.." he paused, trying to find the right words, but none came. "Just leave." He spat bitterly, turning to leave the room in quick steps.

Just then, Harry stood up quickly and ran after the blonde, catching a handful of Draco's coat. "No! please don't leave me!" he pleaded, tightening his grip.

Draco's emotions were in turmoil at the moment but one thing was certain, it still hurt to see the child he cared for crying. He almost gave himself away to the younger lad's pleas but his anger was enough to stop him from picking up the child and cooing him like he always does. Instead, he grabbed Harry's hands and pushed it away from his coat.

"I hate you." Said the slytherin before striding out of the room.

Harry's heart sunk to his stomach. A numbing sensation engulfed his whole being as tears continued to flow from his eyes. Shocked, scared, tired and utterly heart broken, his mind tried desperately to find a way to reverse what happened.

"WAIT!" he screamed, successfully stopping the elder man. Harry used what remained of his rapidly decreasing strength to get up to his feet and walk towards Draco.

The man turned to see him and revealed tear-stained cheeks, he too was feeling hurt and heart broken and tears seemed to have escaped without his permission.

Their grief-stricken gazes met for a brief moment before Harry muttered a spell he was desperate enough to use on both of them.

"Obliviate."

Hello! so if you guys remember, I mentioned in one of the previous chapters that I would be updating regularly every sunday but as you can see I miserably failed to comply, so I decided that instead of every Sunday, I would be updating once a week in any day as I please to give my self time to finish a chapter without hurrying to meet a deadline.

Uh oh... I think I just dug a grave for myself =)) however will I reveal to Draco that Harry is indeed Harry Potter when he's bound to feel betrayed?

Oh I keed, everything is well planned and I'm looking forward to publishing the chapter where they will finally be together as Harry Potter and Draco Malfoy! hehehehe :D
