Summary: Because 49 was 7 times 7, and 7 was the most magical number in existence (anyone in Arithmancy could tell you that). Too bad Harry never took that class. 49 drabbles/one-shots around Draco and fem! Harry.

Across the Great Hall, Malfoy did another imitation of her fainting on the train. Her eyes narrowed.
He hadn't felt how terrifying, how despairing, how hopeless and dark the world had seemed then as she stared into the dementor's soulless eyes. He didn't know how it would feel for everyone important in his life to not die, but betray him all at the same time. He didn't know how cold the specter was, so cold that its touch burned her skin.
Her hands trembled under the table. She hated looking weak. She hated how he was making fun of something she could never control.
She blinked.
In whatever had happened then, her fears had diminished, died into a flame of anger much like Fawkes burst from the ashes anew.
Maybe there was one thing good that came about Malfoy and the dementor incident.
Oh, and the chocolate.
