Everyone was studying like crazy for their exams. Draco and Hermione were always found in the library with thousands of notes and books around them. They occasionally pulled their boyfriends to study with them sincere they weren't studying by themselves.

If it wasn't for Harry, Draco would stay awake and drain himself out as he studied.

It was Saturday now and Draco and his Slytherin friends went for some tea together.

"I'm so tired of studying," Pansy complained. "Alex and i don't have enough time to just talk and cuddle."

"How are we even going to get a job even if we have the bests grades? It's not like people have forgotten which side we fought on but they did forget that we were forced to." Theo sipped his tea angrily.

Blaise sighed, "I'm sure we'll find a way. We just do have to get so good and show people that we're not our parents and that we were forced into it."

Draco frowned, "how? People are literally staring at us right now with their wands at the ready. They don't trust us."

"Look our lives are screwed," Astoria started, "they were screwed from the time that we were put into Slytherin. We can either sit here and bitch about it or we can just move on and do our thing. It'll be hard as fuck but we can make it work. Our friends have our back."

"Let's go buy candy!" Draco exclaimed.

Blaise laughed, "you could drink the most bitter tea but you can't go a week without candy."

Draco shrugged, "I like candy."

The Slytherin Friends walked together to honeydukes when they came across with Daphne.

Daphne sneered at them and pushed past Pansy but she grabbed her wrist and twisted it. Daphne squealed in pain and tried to yank her hand away but Pansy didn't let her.

"Listen," Pansy said in a dangerously low voice, "I'm sick and tired of you pushing me around and bullying me. I will not take it anymore."

"Let go of me!" Daphne ordered.

"No! You're going to listen to me!" Pansy dragged Daphne away to a place that wasn't so visible and her friends followed. Pansy let go of Daphne and she pointed her want at her and her friends followed her lead. They could get into a lot of trouble but at least they'd do it together.

"You let a boy come between us Daphne. You were my best friend, you were to one closest to me. I trusted you more than anything. You told me you were going to have my back. You told me you'd be there for me. When I got te mark you told me that you were going to be my support. I never had anything from you. I was in a dark shitty place and you were never there." Daphne looked down ashamed. "Liar. You're a bloody liar! I told you when Blaise asked me out and I said no. Just for you. I stepped aside so you could date him. You let him come between us. Even after I was with him I tried talking to you. You pushed me away and tried to steal him from me. You optioned him and I still thought it was my fault. The worst part is that I forgave you through it all. I wanted to hate you so bad but I couldn't." Pansy held back her tears and walked away from Daphne. Draco followed her right away and wrapped an arm around her shoulders as they walked.

Daphne looked down at her lap as Pansy and her friends walked away.

"That felt fucking fantastic," Pansy finally said. "I want some candy now."

The Slytherin Friends went to big candy and then walked around until they got hungry. They ate whatever they liked from there as it was the last Saturday there and next week they would finish their education and graduate and leave Saturday morning.

At night they were united in Theo's dorm. They were covered with blankets and surrounded by goodies. It felt as if they were saying goodbye, not to each other, to their home. Their safe space. They fell asleep late and all curled up with each other to keep warm. They woke up to tangled limbs and refreshed.

They went down to eat and Draco spent the day with Harry. Harry could tell how sad Draco was to leave this place. He understood what it was to finally find somewhere where he belonged.

"Do you want to talk about it?" Harry asked as he snuggled his boyfriend under the tree with him

"I'm just sad to leave and a bit stressed. Don't worry about it. I'm also excited to go on our trip. A fun getaway from being the all mighty saviour and the death eater." Draco chuckled at his own words, "it's scary to get out of here but if I have you and my friends I think I'll be alright."

———

Their days flew by and they were finally packing tow days before leaving making Draco freak out and start having small attacks which Harry helped him with.

He made a list of everything making sure he had it all q the castle with Draco telling Harry stories of his somewhat happy memories and Harry would make him laugh with his memories.

When they went back to their dorm to continue cleaning they saw two caps and gowns waiting for them. One was green with silver lining and the other one was red with gold lining.

Harry smiled, "tomorrow is going to our graduation and party."

"Can't believe we both made it." Draco chuckled.

———

The next morning Draco spent time styling his and Harry's hair and putting some makeup on to look even more flawless. He smoothed out Harry's robe and walked with him to their graduation breakfast. They sat next to their friends who also had their caps and gowns on.

The celebration was next and the place was decorated with every house colour. Some family members were sitting down already and the graduates were given instructions.

One by one their name was called by the sorting hat and they were given their diploma. Finally they were all gathered to take a picture and they were ready to go.

Draco went to his mother hugging her lightly to not hurt her fragile frame.

"I'm so very proud of you darling."

Draco smiled at his mother, "I wouldn't be here without you mum. I promise I'll find something to cure you."

His mother stroked his hair, "don't you worry about me Draco. Love your life, I've lived mine. And remember what I told you, if you ever do something with Harry you need to use protection even if we know he's clean. You don't want a happy little accident too early on your life."

Draco blushed, "mother!"

Narcissa chuckled, "I must go now darling. Have fun at the party tonight and I'll see you tomorrow."

"About that," Draco cleared his throat, "Harry and I are going to travel to Peru a few weeks from now. It's for some ingredients that could help me cure the lycanthropy."

"That's wonderful darling! I hope you find everything you need."

"Thanks mum, bye."

"Bye."

Once the party started Draco danced around with his friends and boyfriend all night. He drank some firewhiskey and ate a lot. Harry being the responsible partner tonight only drank one glass of butter beer and watched out for Draco and his friends.

Everyone looked so happy and in their world. Everyone enjoying themselves and some people were starting to be horny.

Little by little the dancing turned into something more sexual and some peoples started to leave. Some because they were tired and some because they had other plans.

It wasn't long before Draco began trying to rut into Harry when Harry decided it was time to get him to bed and sleep before he did anything he would regret in the morning.

Once in their dorm Draco tried to tackle Harry and make out with him. His wandering hands starting to explore Harry's chest but Harry gently pushed him away.

"You're drunk babe, stop it."

Draco whined, "but I want-"

Harry kissed the top of his head, "I'm tired and you're drunk, let's just sleep."

Draco groaned. "Nooooo," He slurred.

Harry helped him put on his pyjamas, "tell you what, if you're still in the mood tomorrow morning then we can do it tomorrow morning. For now you need to sleep. No more discussion."

Draco got on the bed and frowned, "You're hot."

Harry blushed, "sleep babe."

———

In the morning Draco felt his head pounding and his stomach not agreeing with him. He quickly stood up and went to the loo to throw up. Harry woke up from the noise of Draco vomiting and went to check on him.

"I have something for that." Harry said softly as he massaged Draco's back. "You went a little heavy on the drink yesterday."

Draco looked at him worried, "we didn't do anything though, right?"

Harry kissed his shoulder, "don't worry. I stopped you before you tried anything. Come on let's get you cleaned up so we can go eat some breakfast before we go."

"Thank you for understanding." Draco mumbled.

Harry smiled at him whipping his mouth clean, "I know your boundaries and I respect them because I love you."

"I love you too."

They went down to eat something and went back for their luggage. They walked slowly out of Hogwarts to the train saying bye to their home and hello to their new adventure.
