(Yes I listen to girl in red, yes I am lesbian)
Draco's POV
It had been a few weeks since that girl chased me. I hadn't heard or seen anything from her either.
Actually I hadn't seen her at all, I'm pretty sure she was in one of my classes. Did she just disappear.
My thoughts were interrupted by Dumbledore. He stepped up to his podium and started talking.
"There has been another death at Hogwarts, for your safety you will need to buddy up with someone and stay with them," Dumbledore said.
Gasps and murmurs were heard throughout the hall.
I looked over at Harry.
"Don't worry I'll be your buddy," Harry said calmly.
I wondered how he could be so calm when there was a murderer. Unless.....
No
Harry would never hurt anybody, right? I mean I had known him for months now and he never hurt me. So it can't possibly be him.
He must be able to keep his composure, that's it. He is not the murderer.
"Who got murdered!" Someone from the Gryffindor table yelled.
"A Slytherin named Astoria Greengrass?" (I think that's her name)
My face paled. The same Astoria that chased me. The same Astoria that Harry promised to protect me from.
I felt hot breath against my ear. "Don't worry Draco, I won't hurt you," Harry whispered in my ear.
No way. He can't be. Harry can not be the murderer. Please let this all be a joke.
"Draco it's okay," Harry cooed in my ear.
I started shaking in fear. What if he lied, what if he did hurt me. Why would he even kill in the first place.
I thought back to the second day of school when Bethany died. Did he kill her too?
I heard someone calling my name but I didn't look back. How could I live a murderer.
"Draco!" Someone yelled.
I sat up in a flash. I looked around, I was in my room and Harry was sitting next to my bed with a concerned look on his face.
"Are you okay Draco? You were having a nightmare," Harry explained.
It was all a dream, well nightmare. I hugged Harry.
"What's this for?" He asked.
I didn't answer, I just hugged his tighter. He didn't complain.
I began explaining the dream I had to Harry. I felt him stiffen when I mentioned Astoria's death and me finding out he killed her. But I assumed it was because he was being accused of murderer.
"I would never hurt you Draco, I hope you know that," he said calmly while rubbing my back.
"I-I know," I said.
I closed my eyes and breathed in his sent. He smelled like pine trees and a campfire. It was comforting.
I eventually fell asleep in his arms, I had no more nightmares after that.
