Unstoppable: Prologue

Draco Malfoy sat outside his family's home, his back resting on the heavy boulder beside a tranquil pond. Life was changing. He'd screwed up, big time.
He felt the tear slide down his cheek. The reaction was involuntary. His friend, though Draco had not always treated him so, was dead. There was no way around it.
"What's with the long face?"
Draco turned quickly, "And what the hell are you doing here?"
Astoria shrugged, "Mom wanted to visit your mom. She how she was doing, that kind of thing. I came along to see how you were." She looked at him closely, "I'd say you're not doing to well."
He scoffed, "I am perfectly fine."
"Are you sure about that? Because I could have sworn that was a tear on your face," she said, giving him a sharp look. "Do you want to talk about it?"
"No," was his gruff reply. And then the dam broke and tears spilled from his eyes. Draco looked up at her, "What have I done?"
A sad smile came across Astoria's face. She knelt down next to him and wrapped her arms around his shoulders. "You've done a lot of things. But everyone makes mistakes," she told him softly.
"But MY mistakes got people killed. I destroyed people's lives...their families. I'm the one who should be dead," he said.
"No, you're alive so you can atone for those mistakes," Astoria told him. "And I'll be here with you, every step of the way. You just have to tell me what you want to fix."
A/N:
So I imagine that Draco's matured a little bit. This is sort of him making up for all the crap he's caused people. So of it will be direct, but other bits will be anonymous.
Just like all of the good guys grew up at some point, our bad boy had to have grown up at some point. He's gone through a lot of the same crap, he's just been on the other side. I think he sees what he's done and he wants to change it.
And who better to help him then Astoria, who's loved him her whole life. Ok, so we don't really know anything about Astoria, but isn't that the point of fanfiction?
I hope you like it. My first multi-chapter that I have a clear ending for! Can I get a whoop, whoop?
Leave me a review and get on the alert if you like!
