Trigger warning; mentions of rape, although the word won't be used its heavily implied :/

Harry walked down the empty corridor. He gripped his books tight as tears streamed down his face. The pain he felt burned his soul. He expected hate when he came out to people but never this type of hate. He wouldn't wish this upon any of his worse enemies.

He couldn't control himself, Harry leaned against the wall and slid down the wall. He dropped his books in front of him and pulled his knees close to him. He sobbed into his arms. It felt like a nightmare but he knew this was real life. After a while Harry got up and picked up his books. He rubbed his eyes and let out a loud sigh. He wanted this night to be over.

He walked to the Gryffindor common room, said the password and smiled at anyone who said hi. He hid the pain he felt and walked up the stairs, each step hurting him.

He made it to the boys dormitory and he laid down. He pulled the covers over himself and cried himself to sleep.

The next morning he woke up and dragged himself out of bed. He didn't want to leave his bed but he also didn't want people to come up and question him. He made his way to the bathroom. He washed his face and looked into the mirror. He wanted to throw up at his reflection. He was such a weak wimp. He was pathetic. He let that happen to him..... He just wanted to die.

Soon he was done getting ready for the day. He hesitated leaving, he sat down on his bed. Ron came in. "Hey mate, Malfoy's waiting for you downstairs." Ron said smiling. "I'll he down in a minute." Harry said. Ron nodded and closed the door. Harry grabbed his wand and kept it close to him. He sighed and walked out. As he walked down the stairs he could hear his boyfriend and best friends talking.

"Good morning love." Draco said looking up at Harry, a giant smile spreading as he Harry. Harry smiled weakly and took Draco's hand. "Shall we?" Draco asked. "We shall." Harry whispered. Hermione and Ron smiled and headed out before them. Draco didn't say anything but he could tell something was off with Harry. He'll ask him when they're alone.

They walked to the great hall and took a seat at the Gryffindor table. They ate breakfast and talked among themselves. Harry only took a few bites of his food and said he wasn't that hungry. Draco eyed him but didn't want to question it and have Harry feel pressured to answer any of his questions.

Half way through breakfast Draco asked Harry if he wanted to walk around before they had to go to class. "Sure love." Harry said. They excused themselves and left the great hall. They walked around until Draco stopped in an empty corridor.

"Love, what's wrong? You seem upset. Did something happen?" Draco asked. "Huh? Oh nothing." Harry said. "Are you sure? You seem off. You don't seem pumped as usual." Draco pulled Harry closer. "Hey what's this mark... may I?" Draco asked. Harry shook his head but Draco insisted. "Harry where did this bruise come from? It looks fresh..... Did someone hurt you!??" Draco asked worried. "I-I no! I walked into a door." Harry said quickly.

"Harry please.... Did someone hurt you? Tell me who it was, please love." Draco said in a soft tone to make sure he didn't upset Harry.

Harry looked into Draco's eyes. He could see how much love Draco had to give but Harry didn't deserve that love. Harry began to sob. "I'm sorry... I'm sorry... I don't deserve you! I'm just a pathetic piece of garbage! Just leave me here to die alone." Harry said pushing Draco away.

Draco looked at Harry and grabbed his wrist. "Love, what happened? Please tell me... I love you too much to see you like this. Please tell me so I can help you." Draco said. Harry cried even more.

"Did someone hurt you? Was it physically and verbally or just physical?" Draco asked. Harry shook his head. Harry stepped back but ended up falling on his ass. He whimpered as it hurt a lot.

Draco noticed. He knew damn well what it meant when someone fell on their ass and whimpered. As Pansy had explained, it's when "you get fucked in the ass" well that's how she explained it.

"Harry did someone...." Draco couldn't say it. He felt his heart ache at the thought of someone hurting Harry in that way. He whispered the word and Harry cried even more.

Draco shook his head. No! How could someone hurt Harry like that!? Who is so fucked up and evil that they would go and do that to a human being!?

Draco dropped to his knees next to Harry and pulled him close. Harry cried as Draco hugged him. "Baby... tell me who hurt you. Please so I can go and rip their bloody insides out and feed them to the dogs." Draco said. Harry shook his head. "It's no use... what's been done is done..." Harry said.

"Harry. I love you so much. Please don't tell yourself your worthless. Don't look down upon yourself. You're too precious for this world. I love you so much. More than you can imagine. You're the love of my life. I will do everything I can to make the sons of bitches who hurt you pay. I'll make sure they burn in hell. I love you. I love you. I love you. I'll make sure to never leave your side so no one can hurt you. I'll talk to Dumbledore. I'll even become a Gryffindor to watch over you. I love you. Tell me who hurt you please love." Draco said.

Harry finally said who it was. Hermione and Ron came by. "We've been looking for you two. What's wrong?" Hermione asked. Draco shook his head and stood up.

"Please keep him with you at all times. I need to go take care of something." Draco said. He took out his hand and held it close. He kissed Harry's cheek. "I'll protect you, forever." He said. "Promise?" Harry asked in a faint whisper. "I promise." Draco said before heading to avenge Harry.

Later that day Draco found Harry, Hermione and Ron in front of the great hall. Draco's shirt had a little bit of blood, his face had a few bruises and he was bleeding from his nose. Despite that he fixed his tie and robes and walked towards his boyfriend.

"I love you." Harry said looking at Draco. "I love you." Draco said.

"Promise?" Harry asked. "I promise." Draco said before embracing Harry in a hug.
