Worlds Apart

Chapter 11: Nightmares


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2 days later

“So… you two are… together?” Antonio asked. Draco and Harry nodded. Ron gave them a calculating look.

“But you two haven’t…” Ron trailed off, blushing.

“No.” Harry laughed at Ron’s expression.

“Abstinence is for me!” Draco said in mock cheerfulness. All of the boys laughed and Draco grinned.

“You two are so lucky. I lost my love…” Antonio said sadly.

“Really… I’m sorry…” Harry said, suddenly interested. The story about Slytherin and Antonio floated to the top of his mind. Draco looked at Harry apprehensively and turned his attention back to Antonio.

“What happened?” Ron prompted.

“Well… really… we didn’t like each other at first. I was hired by a man to work and he introduced us. The man I loved was very stubborn; he would not let me work for him. However, when my boss sent me to him, we kind of clicked… first it was just a kind of crush… but, after a few months, it grew into a full-blown love. Both of us were so happy…” The happy smile he was sporting faded. “But my boss found out… and fired me, banishing me from the worksite and from Sala— my love. I was totally heartbroken.” Harry and Draco gave each other startled looks. Antonio noticed and reassured them. “But… I’m alright now,” he said. (Thank God he missed the real meaning of that look) Harry thought as he put on a relieved smile.

“So, Ron… who do you like…” Antonio swiftly changed the subject.

“I can’t tell you guys! You’ll tell her!” Ron’s ears turned red and he gave an embarrassed smile.

“I’ll bet it’s Hermione!” Harry said. Ron gave a small eep and turned even redder.

“It is?” Draco grinned.

“H- How did you know…?” Ron squeaked out.

“Ron… I’ve known you for seven years now… caught every glance and blush!” Harry grinned as Ron glared at him, impishly sticking his tongue out. All of the boys laughed again. Antonio grinned and stood up.

“Well guys… it’s been real… it’s been fun… but it hasn’t been real fun.” Antonio grinned. Ron laughed.

“Yeah… I think I’m gonna go back downstairs… gotta finish the Defense Against the Dark Arts essay…” Ron grimace.

“I finished mine.” Harry grinned.

“Shut up…” Ron said and closed the door behind him and Antonio.

“Finally…” Draco whispered. “Didn’t Antonio’s story seem a little too familiar?”

“Yes… yes it did. For a second there I thought he almost said Salazar… but…”

“No… I heard it too… he did say that he was the reincarnation of the older one…”

“But… we don’t know if it was him who said that… and there really isn’t any way to be sure without coming right out and asking…” Harry chewed on his bottom lip nervously.

Draco smiled and took Harry’s hands into his own. “It’ll be ok… we really don’t have any reason to be suspicious… so he’s the reincarnation of the old Antonio… so what?” Draco shrugged.

“True… he hasn’t done anything… but… I can’t shake the feeling he gives me…” Harry said.

“Feeling?” Draco raised an eyebrow.

“No… I mean… not like that… I just get a bad feeling… like something terrible is going to happen,” he finished quietly.

“I see…”

“The feeling has to do with us, Dray…” Harry whispered. Draco looked at him, confused.

“What do you mean…” he said slowly.

“Lately… I’ve been having dreams… where… all I see is Antonio’s face… then… I see a flash of green light… and then I see you but you’re… dead…” Harry said. Draco was slightly shocked. Harry’s hands tightened around Draco’s. “The dreams scare me…” Harry said, ashamed. Draco pulled the raven-haired boy into his arms.

“I’m not going anywhere, Harry… I promise,” he said as Harry buried his face into Draco’s chest.

“I know… but… I can’t help…” came Harry’s muffled reply.

“I know…” Draco said soothingly. The door opened and Harry lifted his head from Draco’s chest.

“Hello boys. Mind if I have a word with you?” Professor Snape said, lacking his usual icy tone.

“Um… sure, Professor.” Draco said. Snape came in and shut the door quietly behind him.

“We need to discuss something of great importance, so I need your undivided attention…” Snape said in a hushed voice.

“Why are you whispering, Professor?” Draco asked politely.

“It adds dramatic effect…” Snape said at a normal volume.

“Ok…” Harry said and Draco grinned.

“Now… on to business. The Dark Lord has been spotted in Hogsmeade… we fear that he will be very close to the castle by nightfall.”

Draco gave Harry a startled look and Harry shook his head. “But I’m safe here! As long as Dumbledore is here…”

“That’s just the thing… Professor Dumbledore has been called away to Egypt to help the Gringotts Bank re-curse all of their vaults.” Snape said in a worried tone.

“But… isn’t Hogwarts one of the safest places?” Draco asked.

“Yes… but… only if you are in the right place… which is why I’ve come to talk to you today.”

“But… you’re head of Slytherin House.”

“Don’t you think I know that, Potter?”

“Why have you really come here, Sev?” Harry looked at Draco. “That’s what we’ve called him since we were first years,” he explained. Snape rolled his eyes.

“The reason I am here is to move you to a more private secluded room, Mr. Potter… on Professor Dumbledore’s orders,” he said with a note of finality.

“But, Professor…” Harry said, looking over at Draco.

“He’ll be coming with us,” Snape stated.

“Really!” Draco said, surprised. “Why?”

“Apparently, Mr. Potter is not the only one who is being hunted by the death eaters… we are still unclear why, but they are after you too, Mr. Malfoy.”

Draco turned pale. “I know why. A couple of days ago, my ‘father’ came up to our dorm. He disowned me because I refused to be moved back into Slytherin… he was pretty pissed off.”

“That would do it… now, follow me down to your new dorm. The house elves will bring your things down later.”

The two boys nodded and followed Snape down to the common room. Ron and Hermione watched after them curiously.

5 minutes later

“Here we are…” Snape said, stopping next to a portrait of a beautiful mermaid, identical to the one in the prefect bathroom.

“The password is ‘safe point,’” Snape told them as the portrait swung open. They stepped inside.

“Woah!” Harry breathed. Everything was either a deep forest green or a beautiful mahogany. There was a grand four-poster bed and a large fireplace, already lit and crackling.

“This room is usually used for when the minister of magic comes and stays here for awhile,” Snape said. “The bathrooms are up the stairs to the left. I guarantee that you two will be safe here.” He turned and walked out of the dorm. Harry and Draco looked at each other and grinned.

“I wonder how long we’re gonna be in here…” Harry said.

“Who cares?” Draco said closing the distance between himself and the boy who lived.
