Draco was left completely without a proper center of gravity, having just gotten Harry back in his life only to probably lose him again, if even just for as long as it would take for Draco to redress. Still, that seemed like too long, the risk of Harry potentially leaving him again too high, and despite knowing just how pathetic it was, Draco couldn’t leave Harry in the hall.<br/>“Why don’t you come with me? Tell me about your birthday, yeah?” Draco said with a soft smile, knowing that it was a thinly veiled excuse, if it could even count as an excuse, but he did want to see Harry and to hear about his celebration, even if it hurt that he had been unable to be a part of it.<br/>“Happy birthday, by the way,” he added, as he went towards the staircase that led to the bedrooms.
