Ginny's P.O.V.

I wake up, and my back hurts like hell. But what scares me most is that fact that I cant feel my legs. I look around the room but the only person I see is Draco, and a bunch of weird machines.

"Why cant I feel my legs? And where are my parents? Why are you here and they aren't? What are these machines? Where are we?" I ask full to the brim with panic and confusion.

"We toke you to St. Mungo's, we were able to heal everything but your back. We had to bring you here, yes a muggle hospital, and to make sure everything went smoothly I stayed pretending to be your boyfriend, they were able to fix your back, to an extent, from my understanding you will soon start physiotherapy which is basically a sort of gym where you do all kinds of exercises and slowly you will regain use of your legs. But you and me now have a problem."

"And what would that be?"

"Your lovely doctor decided, without consulting me, that we are going to live with each other, here in the muggle world, until you are independent again."

"Why cant I live at home? With Mum and Dad?"

"I'd imagine your parent's house is not very wheel chair accessible, is it?" I ask

"Well, no."

"Well the building we are stay in is totally wheelchair accessible, your physio is in the same building and so are some shops, and there are also medical professionals on site all the time. You see it will be hard to make progress as far as regain use of your legs, but easy for you to lose use of other body parts. The doctor put it like this when we were talking yesterday, it is like an up hill climb, hard to get to the top, but easy to fall back down to point zero. If something goes wrong the doctors want you close to a hospital and somewhere that medical professionals are close by and can be there in an instant."

"Why you? Why not Mum?"

"The doctor doesn't feel safe having an old elderly lady taking care of you. He only understands magic to a certain degree, and doesn't realize that your mother is perfectly capable as long as she has magic."

"What about your work?" I smile, I've got him there. There is no way I am living with him. Maybe he has changed for the better but I don't have any proof. For now he still can't be trusted.

"Your lovely, doctor up and decided to set things up with work so that I work from 'home'." Draco says I could tell he was pissed about something, my best guess our situation, but I couldn't be sure.

"Go home Draco I will find someone else to take care of me." I say coolly.

"The doctor is dead set on me doing it. You can talk to him maybe he will listen to you. Trust me tried." He says

I look at him "There is no way the doctor is going to allow anyone but you is there?" I ask

"Nope."

"Do you mind?" I ask testing him. I want to know if he has changed. This is the prefect opportunity to do it.

"No. Not at all. I mean I didn't sign up for this but, I am cool with it." He says, and his face falls in a way that reminds me of Charlie at his age.

"Why?"

"Why what?"

"Why are you cool with it, is it because you genuinely care, because there is no way to get out of it, because you want to get into my pants, or because you want to hurt my family by hurting me?" I ask

"Because I genuinely care, and because, you should meet your doctor, there is no way I am getting out of it." He says chuckling a bit at the end. "And, I promise I wont try to get into your pants." He adds. I think he has changed. But I wonder about his add on at the end.

"I should go let the doctor know you're awake." He says getting up

"Yah probably." I say nodding for him to go.

His test is not over but I think he is doing well so far.

When he returns I will ask him to get Mum and Dad down here. And the, doctor?, for something for the pain in my back. They return and I ask. Turns out it is three am but that my parents can come later in the morning. Once I settle with muggle pain killers, the doctor leaves.

"You can go home Draco. I will be fine, I'll probably sleep until my parents get here."

"Are you sure?"

"Yes. Go home get some sleep and eat something, you look horrible. I don't think your parents would appreciate it, especially because your with me." I say.

"Ginny!" Mum says as soon as she sees me. She rushes over and pulls me into a tight hug that hurts but I bite my tongue until she lets go;

"Mum, not mad but you need to be careful, my back hurts and is very fragile right now."

"So sorry, Ginny dear." she says starting to cry.

"Oh. No Mum, don't cry." I say not wanting that to happen

"It's a mom thing Ginny. You didn't cause it. I just wish there was something more I could do." She explains

"I'll be fine with the physiotherapy, don't worry mom, I will be rooming with a healer, and yes an actual healer not the muggle version, nothing bad can happen."

"Ginny, What on earth are you talking about?"

"Yah, Gin-bug, what are you talking about?"Dad asks

"Physiotherapy, is a special gym, where an almost doctor- Healer," I correct myself for Mum and Dad's sake. "like person, instructs me to do certain exercises that with time, will help me regain use of my legs." I explain to them.

"Ok. That makes sense, but why cant you live at home with me and dad?" Mum asks

"No offense but the burrow isn't exactly wheelchair friendly." I say

"I guess you right. But where are you going to stay? And you said something about rooming with a healer?" Dad asks

"The doctor signed me up to live in a special wheel chair accessible building. And yes a healer is going to live with me until I can move back home." I explain

"Do you know anything about the healer?" Mum questions

" Yes I do."

"Do we know this healer?" Mum asks

"Yes."

"A friend of ours?"

"Not exactly." I say

"What do you mean not exactly?"

"Well the healer is not a horrible person, in my opinion, but they aren't exactly a friend."

"Who?" Dad asks

"Oh just, Dracomalfoy" I say mumbling and speeding up his name.

"I didn't catch that, Gin." Mum says.

"Me neither." says Dad.

"Draco Malfoy." I say, bracing myself for the reaction

"HELL NO!" Dad screams

"Shhh. There are people sleeping!" Mum says

"I don't care!" He says to Mum still in a loud voice. "You are not sharing an apartment with that asshole!" He says to me, as if I choose Draco.

"Would you rather she struggles and lives alone?" Mum says

"I would rather you live with her!" Dad shouts at Mum.

"Don't you think she thought of that!" Mum shot back. I was suddenly very scared, I'd never seen them fight before. I also feel awkward they are discussing my living arrangements without me even though I am in the room.

"Well, obviously she didn't because if she did it would be you not Draco fucking Malfoy!" Dad shouted.

"Maybe there's a good reason I'm not doing it!" It was like they forgot I was even in the room. I am growing scared I don't think anything will happen but, if something does I cant help, I cant even run away.

"Like what?"

"Oh I don't know? Maybe I have other responsibility's!"

"LIKE WHAT?" Now dad is really shouting. I am so upset I am starting to cry.

"OH, LIKE MAYBE...OUR OTHER CHILDREN, AND GRANDCHILDREN!" Mum screams at the top of her lungs.

I want to hide under the blankets, moving my hands to pull my blankets up I feel something hard. I pick it up, it is a small plastic box with buttons. A red one reads 'Help'. I push it on it a bunch of times before a young male doctor comes in. Just as, Dad?, goes to take a swing at Mum's face. I can't believe that Dad is doing this. The doctor grabs dad, arms and all and pushes him out into the hallway, before he can hit Mum. Once he is in the hall security guards show up. The guard that seems to be the head says

"What on earth is going on here?" As Mum is escorted outside as well.

The guards escort them down the hall but the doctor stays

"Are you ok?" Asks the doctor

"Besides the fact that I just watched my parents fight for the first time EVER, yah great." I say my voice dripping with sarcasm.

"I am sorry you had to witness that."

"I'll be fine. I just need sometime to clear my head."

"Of course." He says and leaves sliding the door shut.

Despite the doctor leaving I am not going to get my privacy. I see Draco approaching.

"Hello Ginevra." He says as he steps in. "What happened? I saw your parents being taken somewhere by security." He asks

"Ginny, please. They got in a big fight. Dad was just about to hit Mum, when I found this," I say holding up the box with the help button "a doctor came in and stopped him." I say starting to tear up.

"Does that happen often? Them fighting?" Draco asks in the politest possible way. Points for that.

"This was the first time, as far as I'm aware. And the first time dad has ever tried to hit anyone. I don't know what changed." I say starting to actually cry.

"What were they fighting about? Don't tell me if you don't want to."

"Well I told them you were going to stay with me and Dad freaked out, they started fighting over it. Over me, sort of, I don't know exactly. I was so scared." I explain through tears

"I know how it feels, to watch you parents fight in front of you, about you and your life. It really freaking sucks." He says. I suddenly feel safe with him.

Draco then does something I didn't think he is capable of doing. He walks over to me and sits beside me on the bed. He then non-romantically pulls me into a gentle, reassuring, hug. I sit up as best I can so we both are hopefully a bit more comfortable. He whispers

"It's ok, it's not your fault." In my ear as I continue to cry.

He then repositions himself so he is actually on the bed beside me, he rubs my back and rocks me back an forth making me feel safe.
