Draco's POV
-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-

I was woken up by a terrified scream that rippled through the air in our dorm. I snapped my eyes open and looked at Harry, who's head was in my neck, sobbing loudly.
"Baby?!" I asked frantically as I moved to look at him. He held on tightly to me.
"D-Draco!" He yelled. "H-he got me, he got me!"
"Shh, Harry it's okay. It's okay, I'm right here. He won't get you." I tried to reassure him. I knew from the tone in his voice gat this wasn't just a normal nightmare he would get every now and then. He was really terrified right now.
"B-but h-he," he started sobbing again. I tightened my grip on him and stroked his hair. I tried cleaning him down, by this time he just wouldn't. He was hysterical right now.
"Baby, you need to clam down. Can you please do that for me? I promise, I'll do whatever I have to to help you. But you need to calm down," I told him. He nodded and his sobs turned into whimpers and panting.
"Thank you honey. Now, are you comfortable with telling me what happened? I just want to help you," I told him as I stroked his side.
"I-It was vol-him, Draco. He was torturing me again," he cried. "H-he an Vernon were there. A-and they-" he started crying again.
"Shh, Harry you don't have to tell me what happened. It's okay. I won't let them hurt you. You-know-who is gone and I won't let Vernon come near you. You're safe if you're with me. I promise you," I said. Harry kept crying, and it turned into hyperventilating.
"Harry, Harry you need to calm down!" I tried to tell him. Harry started sobbing again and clutched on to me. I finally got him to calm down and hugged him. He was only panting slightly.
"Harry, love, do you want to do something else? You don't have to go back to sleep right now," I told him. He sniffled and nodded.
"How about we take a bath. We can clear your head and then we can cuddle. How does that sound?" I asked gently.
"Yes please," Harry whispered. I kissed his forehead and brought him out of bed. I carried him to the bathroom and sat him on the counter.
I got his shirt off and kissed his forehead again as I got his pants and boxers off for him. I quickly got myself undressed and stroked his hair as I had the water heat up.
I wrapped my arms around him and put my body in between his legs. He wrapped them around me and put his arms around my neck, holding on tightly.
"It's okay Harry, I'll protect you from whatever scares you," I told him. He nodded and held on tighter. "I'm gonna pick you up okay?" I told him. He nodded again and sniffled.
I picked him up and set him into the bath carefully, Harry immediately putting his face in his hands. I quickly climbed in and held him close. He started crying again.
"Harry it's okay, I promise," I tried telling him.
"B-but," he cried. He buried his face in my chest. "But you," he was getting hysterical.
"Harry, what happened?" I asked. He shook his head.
"Y-you didn't do anything," he whispered through gasps. "You stood there a-and didn't do anything when they-they," he started crying again.
"Harry, baby, I would never do that! You had a nightmare, a swear! I'm right here, and I won't let anything happen to you," I said. He nodded.
"Draco?" He whispered.
"Yes love, what is it?" I asked.
"C-can we go to a healer some time soon?" He asked. I nodded.
"Of course Harry. Whatever you think you need," I told him. I have no idea why he would want to go to a healer, but if he thinks he needs it I'll let him go.
"Are you comfortable with telling me why?" I asked. He sniffled again.
"I've been having nightmares for a long time. And I'm more jittery and jumpy," he whispered, then gasped. "Please don't be mad at me!" He yelled as he snapped his head up.
"Harry, it's okay. I'm not mad at you. Do you want me to go with you when you go to the healers?" He nodded and hugged me again.
"How long?" I asked. He sniffled.
"Ever since the middle of he horcrux hunt," he whispered. "After that thing at your manor, I was getting bad nightmares and I was more distant from people. It stopped a little since he was defeated, but they started up even more horrible than before when Vernon... You know," he said quietly.
"Have you... Ever... Ever hurt yourself?" I asked carefully. He shook his head frantically.
"No, no I promise. Check for glamour or whatever you'd like but I swear I haven't," he told me. I nodded.
"Okay. I want you to tell me if you ever even feel like you want to. I want you to tell me if something's wrong. It doesn't matter how big or small it is, tell me please," I begged. He nodded.
"Okay," he said quietly. "I wanna get out," he mumbled. I kissed his head and drained the tub.
I picked I'm up again carefully, muttering a spell and performing wandless magic to dry us as I walks back to the bed. I put Harry down gently, having him cuddle up to me.
"Do you want to try to sleep more?" I asked as I stroked his hair. He nodded tiredly. "Okay. Wake me up if you have a nightmare, okay? No matter what." I told him.
"Okay Draco. Thank you," he said as he put his arms around me.
"You're welcome. I love you," I told him.
"I love you too," he said. I kissed his head and hummed him a song, and I eventually heard his soft snores. I kissed his forehead and let him sleep as long as he needed.

Four times. Four times before the end of the week Harry has either had a panicked attack or nightmare. I know he has GAD, but it's not supposed to be this bad, is it?
His medication wasn't helping much. He started taking it twice a day instead of once, and whenever he had panicked attacks. It didn't help though.
So today, Harry and I were going to the healers. I could tell Harry was nervous because he was trembling, so I wrapped my arms around him.
"Hey," I said quietly. "Whatever happens, happens. I'll love you just the same. No matter what," I told him. He nodded.
"But what if I'm sick? Or I have another disorder? What if something happened?" He whispered.
"It will be okay Harry. Nothing is wrong with you. If you have a disorder, you have a disorder. I will not think of you any differently. I love you, and that will never change," I told him. He gulped and nodded. I pulled him close and hugged him.
People started staring, but I didn't care. Harry needed me. I put one hand on the back of his head and held it, my other hand around his waist. Harry's arms were around my waist tightly. I kissed his forehead and waited for a doctor to arrive to see us.
"Hey, when we get home we can watch a movie. How does that sound?" I asked softly. He nodded.
"And cuddle?" He asked into my shirt.
"And cuddle," I told him. I remembered something I wanted to talk to Harry about, so I brought him to the family bathroom they had there and locked it.
"Harry baby," I told him gently as I took his hands in mine. "The healers are going to ask you a lot of questions about your past. You need to tell them everything. You can't keep any secrets about the muggle world or if you don't want to hate it because you'll get embarrassed or something. They won't laugh at you. They're here to help you, so you have to tell them everything. Even if it evolves something with me. If I ever made you-" Harry gasped.
"No, Draco! You didn't!" He told me frantically. "Please don't think that you're a part of this!"
"Okay honey, I was just making sure. But do you understand? Even if they don't ask you anything about something important, you have to tell them. You have to tell them about Vernon and everything that he did, about the stress you had with Hogwarts every year, about the hunt, everything," I told him. He nodded, a silent ear down is face.
"What if somethings wrong with me?" He whispered. I scooped him up and took him in my arms.
"Nothing's wrong with you. It doesn't matter what you have, you're perfect in my eyes. Absolutely 100% perfect," I told him. He nodded.
"Okay," he sniffled. He went to the sink to splash water on his face. He made it look like he didn't cry, fixed his hair, straightened his clothes, and then came back to me.
"Okay. I'm ready," he said quietly. "Hold me?" He asked in a frantic voice as I opened the door.
"As long as you need me to," I told him. I put my arm around his waist and brought him to the seating area again. Harry rested his head in my shoulder.
"Mr. Potter?" A voice asked. Harry and I stood up. I brought him to the healer and let his waist go. "I'm Dr. Stevens," she told us. She shook our hands, and I was about to walk back to my seat, until Harry asked her something.
"C... Can he come too?" Harry asked as he looked at me really quick. The doctor looked between us, and sighed a bit.
"I'll break some rules and let you in. But only for a few tests and interviews. You'll need to step out of the room for some of it." She told me. I nodded and we made our way to her office.
"Here we are," she said as she opened the door. "Follow me please," she told us.harry sat down in the patients chair and I sat in a guests chair near him. I held his hand to calm him down a little.
"Now, Mr. Potter, could you please inform me of your past?"
