A new chapter.. I'm not sure how soon this fic will end cause I've got an
idea that burning in my head but I can't get it out shortly. So.. We'll see
then.
I'm NOT blind, you know/ the answers.
Ginny woke up cold and numb. Her body was curled to a foetus position and her back was hurting like hell. Her entire body was dead stiff and her eyes stung, badly.
Silence.
The horrible silence had made its place inside her. She felt, more then ever, so alone.
Her body that had been so young fresh and curved was now too thin and pale. Tears filled her eyes yet again. Draco had never gotten the chance to explore her body. It's now ruined.
'Oh god...' She thought as tears spilled. 'I want my mommy.' Her arms went around herself yet again and she rocked herself slowly as her aching body was finally relaxing under the water that magically reappeared. Her mind drifted to warm memories of her family, all the warm hugs and tradition gave her a silent comfort as her mind was "somewhere else".
She was silently rocking back and fort with a smile ion her lips, she didn't notice that the door had been forcefully opened, due to the blockade in front of the door, and her potions master was panicky searching for her.
He sprinted into the bathroom but stopped as he saw the little figure sitting under the shower, smiling. His heart was aching at the sad moment rushed threw him but he knew better then to let her stay under the shower, so for her well being he decided to carry her to her bed and tucking her in the sheets. Despite her nudeness he didn't feel any urge to look at her in any other way then how a father would. He needed for her to be safe and to be ok. He saw the tears that were now falling mercilessly and brushed them silently away, his heart crying for the girl.
She soon drifted into sleep after he'd given her a dreamless potion, just in case of course.

"Potter!" A voice, known to be kind and gentle was now filled with hatred and anger, shouting at a paled, but still smirking boy, leaning with his chair, trying to provoke the man in front of him.
"We have evidence, we have the victim's word, and we have it all. But YET you WONT CONFESS?" he said raising his words as his mood was showing. The Headmaster visibly hurt and tired rose from his chair looking sadly at the boy.
"You are an INSULT to the wizarding world, Harry. "He shouted, staring at the boy whose smirk was fading slightly.
"I can NEVER understand how you could do it, YOU DESTROYED so many innocent persons LIVES!" He shouted, a single tear falling from his eye telling more then I thousand would to anyone else.
"Your parents..." he said short of breathe and the boy paled. "Your parents would have died in grief if they'd been here now" he said coldly, knowing he'd hit a spot.
The boy changed dramatically and a second later he was crying openly in front of the Headmaster who felt nothing but sadness.

Ginny woke up in her bed, feeling totally out rested. She smiled as her stomach made a loud sound telling her she was hungry. She wondered for a moment how she'd be able to get something to eat when it was. almost midday she noticed. But before she could decide anything Severus had entered the room with an soft smile on his lips making him seem younger. She smiled faintly back for an answer and smiled brightly when she saw that he had food with him.
"I thought you'd be quite hungry by now" he said almost fatherly that of course reminded her that her family was indeed not here. He saw her mood fall and hurriedly laid the tray carefully in front of her, egging her to eat. She tried to force back the lump in her stomach, but succeeded poorly.
She needed answers. She looked up at her potions professor and now her only source for love and care and he sat down carefully on the edge of her bed.
"Severus." She said softly, noticing how lovely the name sounded, not evil like she'd thought before. "I need to ask you about something" she said pleadingly. He smiled warmly and nodded.
"Where is.. My family?" she asked, tears appearing. She saw his face turn from a smile to a sad expression. A cold feeling rushed threw Severus and made him awfully uneasy.
"Ginny..." he said softly..
"Where is Draco?! Where's mom, dad?? Tell me! Why... Aren't they .here?" she said, her voice breaking at the last words, tears burning her already tortured eyes.
Severus sighed nervously and looked up at her with moistened eyes; it scared Ginny to the bone.
"Well..." he said quietly, knowing she deserved a straight answer. "It started with when you told me who it was that had raped you, Harry..." he said and shivered at the name.
"My responsibility was to inform the family, of course. It was.." He begun but went silent for a few seconds.
"Their reactions were, needless to say, upset. But Ron... He took it quite hard. "He said now raising his voice. "He started to shout.. He didn't want to believe that Harry had... That it had been Harry." he said. A chill went threw Ginny and she felt almost entirely numb.
"He said many things, accusing.people... Your parents and other siblings were already very upset that it triggered easily a fight between the boys. Your mother was sitting quietly and watched as the boys fought, Headmaster and I tried to separate them but it ended with Ron running out of the room." He said, he dreaded to finish the story he'd begun, for he knew it would hurt Ginny severely.
"We couldn't find him" he added quietly. "Filch found him finally after hours in. "he started but closed his eyes as the pain overwhelmed him. Ginny was barely aware of anything else but the words floating out from Severus lips.
"He'd drowned in the lake." he said watching the girl reassuringly in the eyes but her gaze was dizzy and unfocusedly.
She opened her mouth and tried to speak but it came no sound, she knew he was waiting for an reaction but she felt non come. She wasn't really feeling anything, nothing at all. She started to panic at the lack of emotions and started to get cold. Why was Severus still sitting beside her, holding her hand? She stared at their linked hands and thought about Draco. Why isn't Draco here? We could have a romantic dinner in the astronomy tower she thought with a smile but it faded as fast as it came. Where's Ron? Ron isn't here. Is he with Harry perhaps, but her thoughts froze at Harry's name.
And reality struck.
And she cried.
She shivered as warm arms were placed around her but relaxed as it was Severus's. She leaned against the strong, comforting body and her tears sped up and she was crying restlessly. She finally relaxed as the wave of sorrow calmed down, and there was only a stinging, clutching feeling in her stomach causing often new tears to reappear. She leaned her head against his chest and breathed in the sent of her potions professor. Severus himself felt oddly like 'home' when he reassured the girl he'd grown so fond about. He brushed her hair, a soothing gesture. He smiled as she relaxed even more and he felt oddly warm inside. He kissed her lightly on her head finally sealing his fate. She felt comforted by the kiss and snuggled nearer him throwing her arms around him, with her head still on his chest. And after a while she spoke up.
"Why aren't the rest of my family here?" she asked softly, the empty feeling was still there in he stomach, haunting her.
"They couldn't. meet you now... they had to. prepare the funeral.. "He said comfortingly.
"When.." She begun but he knew what she meant.
"Tomorrow. They want you to attend if you feel strong enough to. "He said comfortingly. He felt that she'd started to cry again and continued with comforting her.
"I'll be here with you Ginny, you're not alone" He whispered to her softly as a warm feeling overwhelmed him. She lifted her head and her eyes met his.
"I know Severus, I know" she said and planted a kiss on his lips.
