Last chapter:
And then, on a corridor near the hospital wing, I spotted a sad Draco Malfoy. This could've been my chance. I started walking towards him but my legs gave up when I made half the distance. He raised his head. It was now or never. Was he going to help the muggle-born he knew it was something strange about, or was he going to let me bleed and leave without telling anyone where I am? But more important was the answer his behaviour was going to give for the question: Should I tell him who I am?
Chapter 10: Truth
Selene's point of view:
It seemed like he didn't find a way to hide it, since his arms were covered in colors, but they seemed different now: like it had evolved. On his right forearm he had a question sign, that may represent the question I had in my mind. It was surrounded by orange. Of course I was embarrassed. I just fell in the middle of the corridor. I wondered if he noticed. My ring had a cross on it...indecision...and it was surrounded by pink. The corner of my mouth twitched. I was putting him in a strange position by not telling him. He thought we were different persons. Me and his soulmate.
He stood up and started walking towards me. Hesitating, he stretched out his hand and I took it. He helped me get up from the puddle of blood that was getting bigger and bigger. Because I didn't pay attention, I got smashed into his chest and flinched. I looked back and found myself starring in two deep grey dreamy pearls, a pair of sad eyes. It was my fault that he was like that. Thinking fast, I knew I didn't have much time before I passed out for a couple of days and I also knew that I just managed to gather my courage.
I looked straight into his eyes, and before he could say anything, I started:
"I'm truly sorry, and I know that you might already hate me for it, but I had to. It's not just me in this. Now I don't have much time, but soon I will. It's just my fault. Even though we're in different houses, this is very important and I need you to do me a favour: please take me to the hospital wing and tell Madame Pomfrey to call professor McGonagall and tell them both I said 'no one until I wake up' . Then she should call Snape and it's essential for you to tell him the words are:'ut reglo' and then tell him I said he has to show you too. "
I hugged him and with tears streaming down my face, I told him: "I hope you'll forgive me" Then I fell into unconsciousness.
Draco's point of view:
My face froze while she melted into my arms, dazzled by the loss of blood. I didn't understand anything from what she just said. Thankfully, no one knew about the good side of me (aside from my soulmate) but I had to do what she asked me. I may have been raised by my dad, but I wasn't going to let her lose all her blood there. I carried her to the hospital wing.
When Madame Pomfrey saw us, the blood drained from her face and she hurried towards us.
"Put her there." she indicated a bed in the middle of the row.
"She said I have to tell you 'no one until she wakes up' "
Her face changed from alarmed to knowing.
"Oh, she did. Then put her there." she indicated a bed in a dark corner.
"And she also said that you should call professor McGonagall"
As the nurse left, I carefully placed the girl on the bed. She was sleeping so peaceful and she was so beautiful. I shook that thought of my mind and started examining my arms to draw the attention away from the unconscious girl...my arms were half brown half pink. Maybemy soulmate cheated on a test. That could explain why was she feeling guilty.
Then McGonagall arrived. Her face went pale and her eyes wide in shock. I told her what happened on the corridor.
"Then she told me to tell you 'no one until she wakes up' "
Her shocked expression turned into the same knowing look as Madame Pomfrey's.
"She also had a message for professor Snape" I said. They shared a look and then McGonagall went to take him. While she was gone, the nurse performed some healing spells and gave her some potions, but she avoided her forearms, where her blouse seemed to be glued to her skin. I wondered why.
When Snape came, he didn't seem shocked like the two women. Instead, he was looking straight at me, a murderous look on his face. I never understood the connection between him and the muggle-born.
"What did she say?" he asked angrily.
"She said that the words are 'ut reglo' and that you have to show me too."
As soon as I said the last part, the anger wiped off of his face, his eyes widened and he had an mistrustful look on his face.
"Very well then, Mr. Malfoy" he snapped out of his daze and approached the girl.
He pointed his wand firstly at her left, then at her right hand and muttered 'ut reglo'. Her blouse unglued from her skin, revealing her forearms. I froze on the spot: her left forearm had a question mark and an exclamation mark on it, signs of bewilderment, and her right one was entirely pink. I rolled up my sleeves:one of my forearms was pink, the other one brown.
That's why she always acted so weird and why she said those things to me: Selene Povans, the Gryffindor muggle-born...was my soulmate...
A/N: DON, DON, DON... Finally he realized his two beloved girls were the same. But how is he going to react to other secrets? You'll find out as soon as possible. Please tell me what you think about it.
