Summary
“I have something to confess,” Harry started, waiting for some acknowledgement from the other.Malfoy shifted his gaze, regaining focus as he quirked an eyebrow in that playful way he always used to do. Harry was almost relieved to see it until he spoke.“Potter, I’m flattered, but I don’t go for Gryffindor’s.”Annoyance flushed in Harry’s cheeks as Malfoy gave a weak smirk.“You prat! I’m serious. I know you apparated to the Forbidden Forest the day you returned. I was going for a walk to clear my head, and well,” he was suddenly embarrassed at his impropriety, at having to confess to eavesdropping on something so private. “I heard you and your mother. I thought you were up to something so I listened in. I know something more is going on and I’m not letting you put anyone in danger.”If Malfoy had the strength to be any angrier he would have cast a very nasty series of jinxes on the spying boy.OR: Draco is in deep trouble with Voldemort, their souls now linked in a way both similar and unlike that of Harry. Already dealing with a stressful and pivotal year, Harry gets mixed up in the blond's mess and is determined to keep his school and headmaster safe no matter what it might cost.
Note
Just a quick little TW- this chapter (and kinda whole work) deals with a lot of sensitive topics and I'll do my best to TW them. For this chapter, there is talk of suicide, so be warned of that. It's very important to the story though. I hope you enjoy reading this as much as I did writing it! (It literally tore my heart out)...
