OOOO
Draco woke to the sound of distant yelling. With a grunt, he sat up and looked at his surroundings. Due to the closed windows, the room appeared dark and it was hard for him to see anything really. He could feel that he was in a bed under a lot of layers. These layers began to slip off as he sat up though, revealing a thin shirt along with pants made out of the same material.
Out of instinct, he'd attempted to bring his hand to his stomach only for it to be halted by a restraint around his wrist. He gave a worried gasp and attempted to move his other hand which seemed to be retrained to. He did the same with his legs which were restrained as well. He'd begun to start panicking.
Then he felt something on his leg.
He tensed as it began to move, and then he'd felt something grab his leg.
With a shriek, he kicked his leg to the best of his ability and sent whatever was on his leg plummeting to the ground. "Ouch," he'd heard the thing shout, only to his recognition did he realize it wasn't a thing, it was a girl.
"Ginny!" he asked, surprised and shocked. He'd recognize that sweet voice of hers anywhere. "Here," she replied. With a stern, ""lumos maxima", the room radiated with the light emerging from the tip of Ginny's wand.
As soon as she did this, she gasped at the restraints around Draco's wrists and ankles. "They weren't supposed to tie them this hard," Ginny exclaimed as she searched for a light in the room. Luckily, there was a table next to Draco's bed which consisted of a lamp. Ginny was still getting used to this muggle technology. So for a short while, she was hesitant on how to turn it on, until finally she'd remembered what her father and Harry had taught her.
When it was turned on, the two gasped in amazement at its radiant light with no source of magik. Ginny blinked and quickly remembered the restraints on Draco. Ginny carefully undid each restraint revealing dark bruise like marks on the skin.
"Draco…" Ginny trailed off, looking at the blue bruises, "I didn't know that they'd do this." "You asked them to do this?" Draco asked Ginny, his voice dropping a bit, barley above a whisper. With a sigh, Ginny nodded, "yes, but not like this. We can't have you leaving…you see. It appears not everyone is so keen on treating a former death eater…people started yelling, so we had to make sure you'd stay in here and that no one could take you." Draco nodded, but Ginny wasn't finished, " I just didn't know that they'd tie them this hard."
"Don't fret over it Ginny," Draco replied as he brought his hand to his stomach, "You didn't know." When he saw Ginny had not been smiling, he offered a hopeful smile at her. He gently began to caress his stomach and noticed Ginny staring.
"Sorry," Ginny said, looking towards her feet. Draco sighed and looked at her, "Stop being sorry." She nodded and continued to look down at the ground. Draco gently grabbed her wrist and put it a top of his stomach to Ginny's delight. Her face brightened up as she freely began to move her hand around his stomach.
"You can hardly feel anything now, but that's only because it's been just about four months," Draco added. "You were pregnant…during the war?" Ginny nervously asked.
Draco closed his eyes and gave a slow nod, "Yes, I was, and it terrified me." Ginny stopped Draco's stomach and brought it to her side. She shifted a bit uncomfortably, "That was…risky, but you did all you could to insure you're and its safety?" Draco nodded and moved a bit to the side gesturing for Ginny to sit on the bed with her.
"Oh thanks," she said, standing up and crawling to his side. "It's very rude of a man to leave a lady kneeling at the bedside," Draco replied, helping her up.
Finally, after she'd situated herself, she asked, "Did the Dark Lord ever find out?" Draco shrugged, "I was never too sure. I did everything to keep him away from me…that is until he hugged me that once. That was kind of…creepy, but still."
The two laughed at this, until the distant yelling became louder and louder.
"What's going on out there?" Draco asked as he stood up, only to be pulled back by Ginny. "Your stomach," she replied, "whoever's out there, they'll know!" Draco nodded and searched around the room for something to cover up with.
He sighed a sigh of relief when he'd found a light blue robe hanging on the door frame. He quickly wrapped it around himself and tied it tightly.
Ginny gave a dark expression, stating that she'd have Draco stay in bed rather than see what all of the fuss was about. But some of the voices he could recognize and all of them were yelling. He could hear Ron, Blaise, Pansy…his parents…and Harry and a few new voices.
His parents…they weren't even supposed to be there, wherever he was. He was still in a daze from the pain earlier, but it was numbed…not completely gone…but numbed.
But he could still hear them yelling, but he couldn't make out words. Same for Blaise and Pansy who sounded closest, Harry and Ron sounded a bit further away, and he could also here a bit of Hermione.
In his thought process, he hadn't noticed the door knob slowly tilting, he'd only noticed when Ginny jumped protectively in front of him, her arm outstretched with her wand in hand pointing at the door. Draco gulped and took a step back, and continued as Ginny put her hand on his stomach and gently pushed. "Get to the bed," she'd whispered, her wand still at the slowly turning door knob, "there are some here who'd have you dead then saved. We had to do a lot to get you here." Draco nodded quickly and backed up towards the bed, "Be careful against whoever it is."
Ginny nodded and took a small step back as the door slowly crept open causing the two to visibly stiffen.
Oooo
So, I hope you liked this chapter. Feel free to tell me what I should do to better this story, but just don't tell me my stories crap. I think I liked this chapter; I liked Draco's character in this and his attitude towards Ginny.
Hope you all have a nice week and God bless!
