WARNING! WARNING! MENTIONS OF PHYSICAL ABUSE IN THIS CHAPTER! WARNING! WARNING! Ok so I'm really sorry for the wait. I should be updating weekly now that my busy calendar is behind me for the time being. This chapter is the darkest (maybe most inappropriate) I will ever write. Enjoy!

Azalea's POV

Azalea sat in the Ravenclaw common room pleasantly surprised with the afternoon's turnout. Seamus was a very good kisser. Not that she had ever had the chance to kiss many guys. No matter, now she wasn't even a sweet pure little virgin anymore.

After a long while of sitting in deep thought about her afternoon she decided she should get dressed and go speak to Ginny. She just remembered she had missed their lunch meeting. A pang of gilt ran through her, but she was happy about what she did instead. She had a boyfriend now! A cute boyfriend that smelled like peaches and Irish Stew.

Just as she exited the portrait she saw Seamus waiting for her. Her heart did an Irish jig inside her chest. "Hello there!" she cooed, planting a kiss on his lips.

"Azalea," he said

"Yes my love?" she asked

"I have to tell you something." He seemed to say with a pained look on his face.

"I have something to tell you first," she smiled "I love you and I think we are going to be so happy together!"

The pained look seemed to melt off his face. "I love you too beautiful!" he smiled.

She smiled and went to go locate Ginny.

Ginny's POV

Ginny was sitting with much boredom on her face at the Gryffindor table in the Great Hall. Azalea had promised to meet her at lunch so they could catch up. She really needed to talk about what happened with Ron. But Azalea just had decided not to show up..

"Ginny!" Azalea squealed

Ginny glanced up and furrowed her brow. "You ditched me!" She accused.

"I know and I'm sorry," She apologized sitting down "but guess what?

"What?" Ginny groaned.

"I have a boyfriend now!" She sing-songed

"WHAT?" Ginny snapped out of her trance of boredom. Azalea was smart; she was the first to answer every question in class. Azalea was athletic; she was captain of the Ravenclaw Quidditch team. Azalea was also very pretty; she had wavy black hair and dancing sea blue eyes. But Azalea did not have boy skills. She was awkward and shy around boys.

"Well you don't have to act so surprised!" she said looking hurt.

"That's not what I meant Azalea, I'm sorry." Ginny apologized "But are you sure you guys are actually going out?"

"Of course I'm sure!" she snapped "At least sure enough to sleep with him!"

"WHAT?!" Ginny almost yelled.

"Calm down Ginny, do you at least want to know who he is?" Azalea asked quietly.

Ginny took a deep breath. "This isn't the end of the world right? I mean Azalea isn't the kind of girl to just go sleeping around. She must really love this guy? Right?" she thought. "Er… yes I guess I would like to know." She said

"Seamus Finnigan!" She said with an airy look on her face.

"Oh Azalea that's great!" Ginny squealed. Seamus was a nice guy. He was repeating seventh year so he was in most of her classes. "I just hope he is deserving of you sweetie!"

"Don't worry he is!" Azalea smiled

"Speaking of boyfriends, I should go write to Draco. Excuse me!" Ginny got up and walked out.

Draco's POV

Dinner was over. It was spring vacation. Draco was 18. He should be drinking fire whiskey excessively with friends. He should be going on dates with his beautiful new girlfriend. He should be playing Quidditch with his father. But Draco's family was far from normal. Draco was hiding in a small nook in the Malfoy manor trying to avoid his abusive father! Draco daydreamed about the day he could leave the manor with Ginny and never return. Not just to the manor but Great Britain itself.

"DRACO?" Lucius boomed.

"Speak of the devil" Draco thought nervously.

"DRACO YOU INSUFFERABLE LITTLE BASTARD! IF YOU DON'T COME OUT THIS MINUTE YOU WILL SUFFER!"

This place was near impossible to find. If Draco came out now he risked being beaten to a pulp, but if Lucius found him later than Draco risked being killed. Draco crawled out of the small cupboard. "Uh, here father." Draco called "I was just in the lavatory!"

"You will answer me whether or not you have your trousers down! I like it better with them down anyway" He snarled turning a corner and coming face to face with Draco.

Draco whimpered. He couldn't believe what he just heard! Was his father going to rape him? He couldn't! But then again, Draco had thought that same thing the first time Lucius had beat him.

Lucius stalked towards a cowering Draco. "Please father…" Draco whimpered.

"You are a Malfoy! Malfoy's are never scared!" He said putting much emphasis on scared! Lucius whacked Draco on the head with his cane! "That should teach you!"

Draco saw stars his vision was going blurry! Before he knew it he was out cold!

Draco woke up groggily naked on his bed Lucius cowering over him. And well…

The next part is a little to sick for me to write… I trust you know what is going to happen…

Ginny's POV

Ginny sat at the desk in her dormitory. What should she write to Draco? The feelings she had for Draco could not be expressed with a quill and parchment. But she would try her best.

Dear Draco- No, that wasn't deep enough, "dear my love" yes that sounded better.

Dear My Love,

Draco I miss you. Hogwarts is like an ocean without water when you are not with me. Will you be coming back before the end of the break? Have you told your parents about us? Has your dad beaten you up yet? I thought about your offer… and Canada is beginning to sound better and better. It becomes obvious my family will never accept our love. Please write back soon my darling love.

Your sweetheart,

Ginny

As Ginny sealed the envelope she smiled to herself. The day Lucius beat Draco would be the day pigs fly without magic. She really missed Draco. Her heart yearned for his soft lips, his comforting hug, and his sensitive stormy grey eyes. She needed him.

Sorry! I know it's a little short! How did you like it? What do you think should happen next? Review! Review! REVIEW! BTW I've got a big surprise coming up for Seamus and Azalea!
