A/N: Sorry everyone… but I haven't been able to write because I have been really ill and I have been doing lots of blood work and other tests. But no worries I guess. They have found one thing that is causing some of the problems… I think it is all due to the fact that I am just insane and no one really believes me. But yeah. My updates are sketchy because I don't know what the doctors want me to do next. So yeah. Hope you enjoy the new chapter if people will read it… *looks at the reviews she doesn't have* Oh well…
ENJOY

After Brittan got back she sat down and began to pick at her potatoes. She didn't feel all that hungry at the moment, but felt excited. She didn't know what she was going to do for the remaining time until dinner. She knew that it would seem longer than it was because she longed for it. That's how life is for people. It makes you wait for what seems like eternity to be with people that you hold dear to you.
She looked up and saw Draco leaving the Great Hall. She smiled and felt like following him. But thought better of it and remained sitting.
When she and Hermione finished they both got up and walked out of the hall together. Not really knowing what to say to each other.
When they got to the portrait of the fat lady, Hermione muttered the password and they climbed in. There wasn't anyone in the common room so they sat in front of the unlit fireplace.
"So," Hermione said.
"So," Brittan replied looking at her.
Hermione sighed and smiled. She was about to say something, but the portrait hole swung open and about ten to fifteen Gryffindor's came in. They all looked around the room and then their eyes landed on Hermione and Brittan sitting on the couch.
Brittan and Hermione went wide-eyed as they all started at them. Brittan looked at Hermione and smiled nervously. She then looked back at the crowd in the entranceway, "Hello."
All of the guys in the group smiled and tried to make their way through. "Hey… we were wondering…" One of them started. "If you were single?"
Brittan smiled and looked at all of their hoping faces. "No… afraid not!" she half lied.
Hermione shot a look at her and then caught onto the scheme.
"Well… then whom are you dating?" another boy asked.
"That's for me to know and for you not to…" Brittan looked at Hermione in a devilish way and looked back at the boys. "But this sexy girl is single… and I bet you she would be more exciting than I could ever be!"
Hermione went red and looked at Brittan in protest. "Brittan!"
"Yessss?" Brittan smiled again and then looked at the crowd of boys.
Hermione looked from Brittan to the crowd of boys and then back at Brittan. "If you'll excuse us for a moment!"
Hermione stood from the couch, grabbed Brittan by the arm and walked up the stairs to their dorm room, dragging Brittan behind her.
She shut the door behind them and then looked at Brittan. "What the hell Brittan?!"
"What?" Brittan replied rather confused.
"What were you doing… I don't want to be one of their girlfriends." Hermione said with a hurt look on her face.
"Hermione… I was only playing around and I thought you might feel weird always hanging around me, when I am getting all of the male attention… I thought you might feel… well… jealous." Brittan said.
"Why would you think I would get jealous?"
"Because a lot of girls from where I come from are like that." Brittan started. "And I ALWAYS get the fucking attention when I don't want it and they are always saying, 'oh… I wish all of the guys liked me' or 'oh I wish I was as pretty as you are Brittan' shit like that! I hate it. And I don't want you to think stuff like that!"
Hermione slumped her shoulders and looked Brittan dead in the eye. "I would never say stuff like that! I like being single and I don't like any of the boys here at school… they are annoying and only like the girls for their looks." Hermione said as she sat down on her bed. "I want to find a guy that will hold interesting conversation with. One that won't date me for a week and then see another girl and dump me… But there aren't any men like that here!"
"Not all of them are like that Hermione!" Brittan said as she sat down next to her.
"Really?" Hermione said. "Who?!"
"Harry, Ron—"
"Besides THEM!"
"Oh," Brittan sighed and looked down at the floor. "Um, Draco."
"WHAT?!" Hermione said as she stood up from her bed. "MALFOY?!"
Brittan winced and continued to look at the floor. "Yes… Draco Malfoy."
"What the HELL are you smoking… Malfoy is one of the biggest players in this school! He doesn't give a damn about anyone except his self!"
"You don't know the half of it Hermione!" Brittan stood up and looked her in the eyes. "Do you want to know the truth Hermione?"
"Truth about what?"
"That night I didn't come back to the dorm. I said I was in the library and fell asleep." Hermione nodded at the statement. "Well… I was with Draco."
"YOU WERE WITH HIM?!" Hermione half yelled.
"Yes, I was with him."
"What the hell were you two doing all night?"
"We talked and then we fell asleep! Nothing sexual happened if that's what you're getting at." Brittan said. "He held me while I cried and he tried to comfort me. He wanted to make sure I was okay so, he let me sleep there with him. He held me all night… making sure nothing happened to me!"
A tear ran down her face and Hermione felt as if her heart were going to break at the sight. "Why… why were you crying in the first place?"
"We were playing the 'Question Game' to get to know each other a bit better… and he asked me why I came to Hogwarts… my mind started to fill with my horrible past leading to my coming here… coming to this school. I started to cry but I wanted to tell him… I wanted to tell so badly. But he saw me starting to cry and told me that I didn't have to tell him… He told me that if it hurt that much to talk about… he didn't want to know. And he held me until I fell asleep…" she ran her fingers through her hair. "He does care Hermione… more than you could ever imagine!"
"Brittan…" Hermione said in a pleading voice. "I'm sorry…"
Brittan looked at her… the building tears in her eyes clouding her vision. "There's nothing for you to be sorry about."
"Yes there is… I went off on you because you said that he was a caring person." Hermione put her arms around Brittan. "It's your life and if you think he is caring… then he's caring… it shouldn't matter what I think about him. I'm sorry."
Brittan hugged Hermione back and they both started to cry. Feeling bad about what they said to one another.
After the tears were gone and Brittan redid her make up… they both sat in their dorm… feeling a bit nervous and guilty toward each other.
They were silent for a while until Hermione broke it.
"So… when you said you weren't single… were you talking about Draco or were you just pulling strings?"
Brittan laughed. "Bath I guess… I mean… yes Draco and I are friends… but I've kissed him twice and he's kissed me once. I don't really know if we're dating or not."
Hermione smiled. "Oh…"
"Hermione," Brittan began. "I just wanted to tell you that I am going to be out tonight with Draco!"
Hermione's eyes went wide then shook her head. "Where are you guys going, if you don't mind my asking."
"He's going to show me around the grounds… that's all."
"Alright… when are you planning to be back?"
"I don't know just yet. But could you keep this a secret between us…?" Brittan began.
"Don't worry, your secret is safe with me!" Hermione said as she stood up from her bed. "But what do you want me to tell anyone who asks?"
"That I am in the library or am in a meeting with a professor." Brittan said thinking almost nothing of it.
"Alright…" Hermione had a worried look upon her face.
Brittan just smiled and sat down on her bed.
It was 6 o'clock. Two more hours before Brittan could see Draco. Actually… two hours and 15 ish minutes.
Hermione had gone to hang out with Harry and Ron in the library. Something about Ron forgetting to do one of his assignments over the summer. So Brittan stayed behind to do whatever came to her mind.
She looked around the room. It seemed pretty bare on all of the walls. No posters, pictures or paintings. Nothing to make to room interesting. She sighed at the fact and lay flat on her back on her bed and stared at her red canopy above her.
She opened her eyes slowly and blinked a few times. She sat up in a rush and looked at her clock. 7:58.
She jumped out of her bed and looked in the mirror. Her hair was a mess. She grabbed a brush and brushed her hair in a hurry and did a last minute makeup check. Redoing her eyeliner and eye shadow. She glanced at the clock and it read 8:05. She cursed quietly and ran out of the room.
When she ran down the stairs, people kept starring at her as she ran past them. She didn't pay much mind to them, but when she got into the common room… there were a lot of Gryffindors sitting by the fireplace. It looked as if they were having some sort of meeting.
She quietly walked past the group as she headed for the exit.
A boy looked over at Brittan as she inched toward the door with her back to the group of people. "Hey… is that you, Brittan?"
'SHIT!!' Brittan froze in her spot and then turned around smiling. "Yesss…" 'Shit, why did he have to see me??'
"Where have you been?" The boy looked at her as if she was supposed to have been there.
"I was sleeping in my dorm… why?"
"We were having our monthly house meeting."
"Oh… well… you'll have to fill me in some other time okay?!" Brittan said in expecting to leave as she turned around.
"Why don't I fill you in at dinner?" the boy said as put on his sexiest smile. Nothing compared to Draco's Brittan thought.
'Crap… how do I get out of this one….' Brittan thought as she turned around to the desperate looking boy. "Um… I have a meeting with a teacher. So I won't be at dinner tonight!"
"Oh… well then why not later tonight when you come back?"
'Does he ever give up?!' Brittan bit her lip. "Um… how about tomorrow at lunch?"
"Alright then!"
Brittan nodded and continued out of the common room and sprinted to the Great Hall.
She got to the Great Hall while everyone was filing in. She caught her breath and walked into the hall.
After she was done eating, she looked over to the Slytherin table and saw that Draco had already left the table. She sighed and got up from her seat. She looked around the table and it seemed that no one noticed her, so she left the hall.
When the doors closed behind her, she saw Draco leaning against a statue by a staircase. He was wearing black baggy pants with a loss button up black shirt that seemed to be made of some silky type of fabric. He looked over and saw that it was her and grinned, showing his perfect teeth.
Brittan smiled and walked over to him. "Good evening."
Draco sneered and looked down at her when she got close to him. He was at least a head and a half taller than she was. "Good evening," he leaned down and looked her in the eyes. "You're late you know?"
Brittan sighed. "Yeah I know… I fell asleep and lost track of time."
"Oh is that so?"
"I'm serious… Then some guy from my house tried to talk to me and I didn't feel like being my rude self!" Brittan said sarcastically.
"Really?"
"Would you stop questioning my and take me out side?" Brittan said playfully as she smiled Draco with a suggestive look.
"Well," Draco paused for a moment. "If you put it that way, I think I shall."
Brittan smiled and started to walk toward the doors leading outside. Draco pushed off of the statue that he had been leaning on and walked along side of her.
The night was clear like it usually was and the stars gleamed like nothing else. The trees didn't creek considering there was no wind. There were barely any clouds in the dark sky. The lake had a larger than life reflection of the moon swimming in it along with the stars.
The sound of birds came from the forest. Small happy chirps in high pitches, some loud in a lower pitch and others just a normal chirp you would hear from a passing bird. A large bird flew from the forest and across the bare sky. It made no sound. But it was bigger than any normal bird, Brittan had ever seen. "Holy shit." She said under her breath as she looked up.
"What?"
Brittan looked over at Draco to see that he was looking at her with wonder in his eyes. "That bird… didn't you see it?"
Draco looked up and saw the remainder of the bird fly into the mountains behind the castle. "Yeah… I see it all of the time." He looked back down at Brittan. "I guess that's what I get for wandering around the school grounds at night all of the time."
Brittan smiled and looked in the direction the bird had gone. She couldn't see it anymore but just the mere thought made her feel an interesting wonderful. Seeing the bird being able to fly away from everything. Fly away from its home and all that it once knew. Maybe to come back… or maybe not. She wished that she were able to do that same thing the year before. Life wouldn't have been the hell that it had been. The beating and the rape.
She shook her head and fought her emotions away. This wasn't the time to be crying about he past.
She felt Draco's hand on her shoulder and she looked over to him. His eyes were their wonderful bluish silver. There wasn't a sparkle in them, but something was different. He looked rather pleased for some reason.
She smiled and giggled a little.
"What?" Draco said letting his hand slid off of her shoulder.
"Nothing."
"Oh really…" he paused. "I don't believe you."
"Believe what you will." She smiled and continued walking.
Draco shook his head and started to walk after her.
They walked for what seem like an hour in silence, occasionally looking at each other and smiling. They came to a cliff that if you jumped off; you'd land in the lake. Draco sighed and somewhat fell backward and laid on the ground.
Brittan looked down at him and smiled. "And what might you be doing?"
"I'm giving birth," he paused. "What do you think I am doing?"
Brittan laughed and sat on the ground next to him. She pulled her knees into her chest and wrapped her arms around them looking at the wonderful view.
Draco sat up and looked at Brittan's face. A strand of hair fell over her eye. Her eyes were open and looked at peace. Thinking about nothing but about something at the same time. "I take it you don't get out that often?"
Brittan looked over and locked eyes with Draco. "Not for some time no." She gave a weak smile and then looked away.
"Why?" Draco said as he moved closer to her.
"Why what?" Brittan said, still looking into the lake.
"Why don't you get out often anymore… what happened to make you not want to do it?"
"I don't really know." She sighed and looked down at the ground. "I guess it just reminds me of… my past."
"Your past leading to your coming to Hogwarts?" Draco asked.
"Yeah." Brittan sighed again and closed her eyes. Trying to hold back the rush memories.
Draco looked at Brittan for awhile wondering what was going through her mind. Afraid to ask, but wanting to know more than anything. He shook his head and put his hand onto her back and pulled her closer to him. "Do you want to talk about it?"
Brittan looked up and looked into Draco's deep and wonderful eyes. There was still a strand of hair that was in front of her eye. Draco smiled and pushed the strand behind her ear and ran his index finger along her jawbone.
Brittan looked down at his arm and then back to his eyes. He was smiling a rather concerned smile. She felt safe with him. She felt as though she could tell him anything at that moment in time. But she didn't want to tell him. Considering that it would mean she would have to remember. And that was the last thing that she wanted to do. Maybe if she were to tell him; though she might get a load off of her chest, causing her to be able to deal with it all. Or6 it would cause her to feel extremely depressed. She didn't know, but didn't see anything wrong with trying. "Do you want the long answer, or the short one?" she said with a slight sigh in her voice.
"Which ever one you feel like telling." Draco said as he dropped his hand from her back.
Brittan looked down to the ground. Which one should she tell him? The condensed version that left a lot out or the long one which was extremely painful. So she thought about telling one that was kind of in the middle of the two.
"When I was around three," she said. "My mother and father decided to move to Alaska, with me of course. We bought a wonderful house that had a extravagant view of part of the channel. Trees everywhere and tons of animals. Everything you could ever want when you're almost three right?
"The house was wonderful and we didn't have very many neighbors, something my father enjoyed to no end. I found it kind of annoying. Considering I had no one to play with. So I would go out and play by myself. You know, those stupid adventures you go on when you're young." She smiled at the thought.
"But one night, when I was about Eleven, I came in really late from one of my 'adventures'. My father was furious and my mother seemed that she had been worried sick. I tried to explain to them that I fell asleep on a rock at the nearby waterfall. But they seemed as though they thought I was lying." She swallowed rather hard. "That was the first night my father beat me and the first night my mother just stood there not doing anything.
"Then I went off to 'Witches and Wizards Alaska Boarding School'. It was peaceful there. I didn't make very many friends at first cause I was so used to being by myself you know." She smiled slightly and looked at Draco who was listening intently.
"Anyway. Life was peaceful for about four years. During my fourth year, I changed the way I dressed to the tighter and more girlie clothing and started to wear makeup. Right before my fourth year ended, I had a bunch of friends and even one of the hottest guys in the school asking me to go out with him.
"So I came home that summer with friends to write and a boyfriend that I could go and see. But also during that summer, my father started the whole beating thing again. He had started to drink because he was in an accident at work and was on paid leave for two months. He was pissed and my mother seemed to just stop talking altogether. I didn't tell anyone about my fathers beating, even in the back of my head I knew that I should have. But I couldn't stand the thought of leaving everything."
Tears started to form in Brittan's eyes as she went on. "But once I was on my fifth year at school, I thought everything would be fine, or at least until the next summer." She sighed and thought for a moment.
Draco was sitting with one leg flat on the ground and the other pulled into his chest with his foot flat on the grassy ground. He had his arm resting on the leg that was up and his head leaning on his arm, listening carefully not to miss anything.
"But when the year ended, I had almost every fucking guy in the school trying to get a piece of me and not very many friends. Considering I had shut almost everyone out due to my summer. I guess I didn't want to tell anyone on accident. But when the year ended and summer began again, the beatings came more often.
"One of my friends wanted me to come to a party during the first month of our summer vacation. She lived about two and a half to three miles away from me; so my mother said I could and my father said he could care less. So I went and so did Sean."
"Sean being your boyfriend at the time I presume?" Draco interrupted.
Brittan sighed. "Yeah…"she shook her head slightly. "But we went together. During one of the songs he said that he had to use the restroom and left the dance floor. But about a half an hour later, the girl that was holding the party asked me where he was and that 'our song' was playing. So, I went to look for him."
"And let me guess, that's when you found him cheating on you yesss?" Draco prophesied.
Brittan sighed again. "Yeah." She ran her fingers threw her hair and continued. "That's when I ran from the party out to the front yard and he caught up with me. Trying to tell me that the girl was forcing him to do it and other stupid excuses that cheating men come up with. We quarreled a bit and I finally got away.
"I ran all the way to my house with a stop at a near by park. My mother was reading her paper and I didn't see my father. I went to my room to change into my pj's and go to sleep. But after I got into my pj's, my father came in and he beat me for just the hell of being there. When he left, I took a shower to wash off all of the blood. When I came out into my room with just a towel on, I saw Sean sitting on my bed." tears started to roll down Brittan's cheek. They glistened in the light of the crescent moon. "That's when he raped me."
At that, Draco gave a faint gasp. He wasn't expecting something of that magnitude. He saw the tears rolling down her cheeks as they showed so well in the darkness.
"But after that, I wrote a letter to Professor Dumbledore about everything and he said that he would arrange for me to be removed as son as possible." Brittan tried to wipe away a tear as she cleared her throat. "He came to my door in person with an order of a muggle court that said he could take me away. My father fought and my mother cried. But Dumbledore took me and I lived with him for the rest of the summer. He's really quite nice for an old man." She smiled, trying to hide the sadness in her face. "He said that he was thinking about adopting me… figure that."
"Brittan…" Draco started, but couldn't find any words to follow. He pulled her in to a hug and wiped another tear away from her cheek.
Brittan couldn't help but cry. She wrapped her arms tightly around his waist and cried. Draco sat there coursing the back of her head and cooing her.
Brittan suddenly pulled away and stood up. She walked over to a near by tree and ran her fingers through her hair, trying at the same time to stop crying and get stop her makeup from running. Draco gave a weak smile and stood up.
Brittan turned her back to the tree and looked at Draco as he started to walk towards her. She wanted to be in his arms but now that she remembered what had happened, she realized that she liked him and that she wasn't really ready for a boyfriend just then. That her heart was still tender from her summer happenings, she was scared of being hurt and forced to do things that she didn't want to do. She shook her head and cupped her face with her hands.
"Brittan… are you going to be okay?" Draco said as he put his hand on her shoulder. She flinched and pulled away from his
grasp. "Brittan, what's wrong?"
She looked him in the eye. Those eyes that she had fallen for. If Draco wasn't standing there, she would have laughed. She was so naïve, falling for the first handsome guy she met. She felt like an idiot. She didn't even know him and she felt as though she trusted him more than anyone she had ever met and could tell him anything. How she had threw herself at his feet and played to his liking. Wanting him and thinking that he cared about her. Or did he?
Brittan buried her face in her hands again. Trying to make since of everything. She shook her head furiously. She let her hands fall to her sides and she started to walk toward the direction of the castle.
"Brittan, what are you doing?!" Draco said as he grabbed her lightly by the wrist.
She jerked her wrist free and looked at Draco. He looked perfect in the moonlight. So wonderful, so sexy and so nice. But she didn't know the real him. She was confused beyond anything she had ever felt before. She caught herself crying again and quickly caught the tear before Draco could see it in the moonlight.
He stepped in front of her and ran his hand on her cheek. "Brittan…" he ran his fingers through her hair.
"Draco, don't." she whispered as she tried to walk past him.
He sighed and she continued walking toward the castle.
The night suddenly felt cold as she walked away, leaving him to stand there by himself. She didn't look back and fought the temptation to run back to her dormitory and just sleep. She felt a cold shiver crawled up her back and she crossed her arms over her chest.
She stopped for a moment and looked up at the sky. The clearness of the night had lessened into a cloudy abyss. She couldn't see the moon anymore and she only saw a select few of the once bright beacon like stars. She couldn't hear any of the once happy birds she had heard before. The lake looked as if it were a large pool of blood it was so dark. She was beginning to think that she was walking through a totally different area than she had earlier that night. The castle even looked different.
The halls of the castle were even colder and seemed to be filled with death. Nothing seemed lively. Not even the pictures and paintings on the many walls. All of the colors seemed dull and dark full of depression and hatred. Guess that's what happens when you're depressed or confused. Everything around seems to have changed when it really hasn't. You just seem to pull out the darker parts of things that you wouldn't normally see when you are in a happy and cheerful mood.
Even the portrait of the fat lady seemed dark. Even though she was still in her shocking pink dress like she had always been, it seem to be a shade different tonight.
The common room was empty and the fire was dying down to a smolder. She sighed and continued walking to her dorm room.
When she opened the door, she found Hermione sitting on her bed writing in what seemed like a journal. Hermione had heard the annoying creek of the door and looked up to see who it was. She saw Brittan standing in the doorway smiling a weak smile.
"You're back sooner than I thought." She said with a large smile on her face.
Brittan just nodded and she closed the door. She walked to her dresser and pulled out a clean pair of night cloths and went into the bathroom. Before she shut the door she said back to Hermione, "I'll be in the shower."
Hermione stared at the now closed door and thought for a moment. She shrugged and thought nothing of it that she was just tired and felt dirty or something and went back to her writing.
***
Draco stood there and watched Brittan walk to the castle. Something in his heart seemed to have broke at that very moment. He wanted to run to her and hug her. He wanted to tell her that everything was alright and whatever it was that was bugging her she could tell him and he would do his best to make it right. That he would do whatever it took to make her feel safe and at peace with herself and the rest of the world.
He saw her disappear behind the castle doors and that was that. Any chance of running after her now wouldn't prove anything. He felt cold and hurt for some reason. She hadn't even said goodbye. He shook his head. He shouldn't be feeling sorry for his self when he knew what kind of hell Brittan had come from.
He didn't know why Brittan acted the way she did after she told him about her past. He wanted to know but didn't want her to feel hurt any more than she already did. He sighed a heavy sigh and started to walk to the castle.
The clouds were heavy and the lake was dark. He heard creeks from the trees indicating that there was wind and that there would be high winds tomorrow. Maybe even a storm. He started to walk faster and rain started to fall. In heavy sheets over the large school grounds. Soaking everything underneath it, including Draco.
When he walked into the Slytherin common room, there were Slytherin's passed out everywhere. He shook his head as he saw all of the cups that were probably filled with some alcoholic beverage earlier that night. The disposable cups were everywhere and so were reminisce of other food products.
He walked the short walk to his dorm room and found that Crabbe and Goyle weren't in the room. They were probably one of the many people passed out down stairs.
He sighed and sat on his bed. He bent forward and cradled his head in his hands. He groaned and stood up and hit the wall.
He didn't know what to do, he was frustrated, he wanted to help Brittan but didn't know how he could without her braking down all over again. He looked over at his desk and saw a piece of parchment and his quill. He stared at it for a moment and sighed. "Hell, it seemed to have worked before!"
He sat at his desk and began to write furiously. He shook Glander awake after he had put the letter into the envelope. Glander glared at him but let him tie the letter to his leg and flew over to the window.
Draco walked over to the window and patted Glander on the head. "Take that to Brittan Arkin… got that?" Glander gave a nod and Draco opened the window to let him out.
***Brittan's Dorm***
Brittan stepped out of the bathroom in her clean nightclothes and saw that Hermione and gone to sleep. All of the lights were off except for the one next to her bed. She smiled and walked over.
She stopped and looked at Zuni her fruit bat. He was looking outside in wonder and then looked at Brittan. "What, you want out?" The bat nodded it's little head with a squeak of approval. Brittan smiled and walked to the window. She opened it and heard the rain. "You sure you want out… it's raining pretty hard." She said as she picked Zuni up off of his stand. He seemed as if he was looking outside and squeaked again. "Alright… I'll let you in, in the morning!" And with that Zuni flew off into the rain-covered night.
Brittan closed the window quietly and turned around to her dresser when she heard a loud thump from behind her. She whipped around to see that a bird had flown into the window. "SHIT!" He half yelled and jumped to the window, opening it in a rush.
The bird shook its head and hopped into the room. It was Glander, Draco's eagle that he used to send letters.
She sighed and took an owl treat from the desk and gave to him. She untied the letter from his leg and said that he could go if he wanted. He nodded an flew off into the wetness of the night.
The letter was of course from Draco. "Damn it… I am not in the mood for him right now… I thought he would have gotten the picture…" She sighed.
"What the hell was that noise?" Hermione said in a grumble of a voice as she turned over in her bed.

After Brittan got back she sat down and began to pick at her potatoes. She didn't feel all that hungry at the moment, but felt excited. She didn't know what she was going to do for the remaining time until dinner. She knew that it would seem longer than it was because she longed for it. That's how life is for people. It makes you wait for what seems like eternity to be with people that you hold dear to you.
She looked up and saw Draco leaving the Great Hall. She smiled and felt like following him. But thought better of it and remained sitting.
When she and Hermione finished they both got up and walked out of the hall together. Not really knowing what to say to each other.
When they got to the portrait of the fat lady, Hermione muttered the password and they climbed in. There wasn't anyone in the common room so they sat in front of the unlit fireplace.
"So," Hermione said.
"So," Brittan replied looking at her.
Hermione sighed and smiled. She was about to say something, but the portrait hole swung open and about ten to fifteen Gryffindor's came in. They all looked around the room and then their eyes landed on Hermione and Brittan sitting on the couch.
Brittan and Hermione went wide-eyed as they all started at them. Brittan looked at Hermione and smiled nervously. She then looked back at the crowd in the entranceway, "Hello."
All of the guys in the group smiled and tried to make their way through. "Hey… we were wondering…" One of them started. "If you were single?"
Brittan smiled and looked at all of their hoping faces. "No… afraid not!" she half lied.
Hermione shot a look at her and then caught onto the scheme.
"Well… then whom are you dating?" another boy asked.
"That's for me to know and for you not to…" Brittan looked at Hermione in a devilish way and looked back at the boys. "But this sexy girl is single… and I bet you she would be more exciting than I could ever be!"
Hermione went red and looked at Brittan in protest. "Brittan!"
"Yessss?" Brittan smiled again and then looked at the crowd of boys.
Hermione looked from Brittan to the crowd of boys and then back at Brittan. "If you'll excuse us for a moment!"
Hermione stood from the couch, grabbed Brittan by the arm and walked up the stairs to their dorm room, dragging Brittan behind her.
She shut the door behind them and then looked at Brittan. "What the hell Brittan?!"
"What?" Brittan replied rather confused.
"What were you doing… I don't want to be one of their girlfriends." Hermione said with a hurt look on her face.
"Hermione… I was only playing around and I thought you might feel weird always hanging around me, when I am getting all of the male attention… I thought you might feel… well… jealous." Brittan said.
"Why would you think I would get jealous?"
"Because a lot of girls from where I come from are like that." Brittan started. "And I ALWAYS get the fucking attention when I don't want it and they are always saying, 'oh… I wish all of the guys liked me' or 'oh I wish I was as pretty as you are Brittan' shit like that! I hate it. And I don't want you to think stuff like that!"
Hermione slumped her shoulders and looked Brittan dead in the eye. "I would never say stuff like that! I like being single and I don't like any of the boys here at school… they are annoying and only like the girls for their looks." Hermione said as she sat down on her bed. "I want to find a guy that will hold interesting conversation with. One that won't date me for a week and then see another girl and dump me… But there aren't any men like that here!"
"Not all of them are like that Hermione!" Brittan said as she sat down next to her.
"Really?" Hermione said. "Who?!"
"Harry, Ron—"
"Besides THEM!"
"Oh," Brittan sighed and looked down at the floor. "Um, Draco."
"WHAT?!" Hermione said as she stood up from her bed. "MALFOY?!"
Brittan winced and continued to look at the floor. "Yes… Draco Malfoy."
"What the HELL are you smoking… Malfoy is one of the biggest players in this school! He doesn't give a damn about anyone except his self!"
"You don't know the half of it Hermione!" Brittan stood up and looked her in the eyes. "Do you want to know the truth Hermione?"
"Truth about what?"
"That night I didn't come back to the dorm. I said I was in the library and fell asleep." Hermione nodded at the statement. "Well… I was with Draco."
"YOU WERE WITH HIM?!" Hermione half yelled.
"Yes, I was with him."
"What the hell were you two doing all night?"
"We talked and then we fell asleep! Nothing sexual happened if that's what you're getting at." Brittan said. "He held me while I cried and he tried to comfort me. He wanted to make sure I was okay so, he let me sleep there with him. He held me all night… making sure nothing happened to me!"
A tear ran down her face and Hermione felt as if her heart were going to break at the sight. "Why… why were you crying in the first place?"
"We were playing the 'Question Game' to get to know each other a bit better… and he asked me why I came to Hogwarts… my mind started to fill with my horrible past leading to my coming here… coming to this school. I started to cry but I wanted to tell him… I wanted to tell so badly. But he saw me starting to cry and told me that I didn't have to tell him… He told me that if it hurt that much to talk about… he didn't want to know. And he held me until I fell asleep…" she ran her fingers through her hair. "He does care Hermione… more than you could ever imagine!"
"Brittan…" Hermione said in a pleading voice. "I'm sorry…"
Brittan looked at her… the building tears in her eyes clouding her vision. "There's nothing for you to be sorry about."
"Yes there is… I went off on you because you said that he was a caring person." Hermione put her arms around Brittan. "It's your life and if you think he is caring… then he's caring… it shouldn't matter what I think about him. I'm sorry."
Brittan hugged Hermione back and they both started to cry. Feeling bad about what they said to one another.
After the tears were gone and Brittan redid her make up… they both sat in their dorm… feeling a bit nervous and guilty toward each other.
They were silent for a while until Hermione broke it.
"So… when you said you weren't single… were you talking about Draco or were you just pulling strings?"
Brittan laughed. "Bath I guess… I mean… yes Draco and I are friends… but I've kissed him twice and he's kissed me once. I don't really know if we're dating or not."
Hermione smiled. "Oh…"
"Hermione," Brittan began. "I just wanted to tell you that I am going to be out tonight with Draco!"
Hermione's eyes went wide then shook her head. "Where are you guys going, if you don't mind my asking."
"He's going to show me around the grounds… that's all."
"Alright… when are you planning to be back?"
"I don't know just yet. But could you keep this a secret between us…?" Brittan began.
"Don't worry, your secret is safe with me!" Hermione said as she stood up from her bed. "But what do you want me to tell anyone who asks?"
"That I am in the library or am in a meeting with a professor." Brittan said thinking almost nothing of it.
"Alright…" Hermione had a worried look upon her face.
Brittan just smiled and sat down on her bed.
It was 6 o'clock. Two more hours before Brittan could see Draco. Actually… two hours and 15 ish minutes.
Hermione had gone to hang out with Harry and Ron in the library. Something about Ron forgetting to do one of his assignments over the summer. So Brittan stayed behind to do whatever came to her mind.
She looked around the room. It seemed pretty bare on all of the walls. No posters, pictures or paintings. Nothing to make to room interesting. She sighed at the fact and lay flat on her back on her bed and stared at her red canopy above her.
She opened her eyes slowly and blinked a few times. She sat up in a rush and looked at her clock. 7:58.
She jumped out of her bed and looked in the mirror. Her hair was a mess. She grabbed a brush and brushed her hair in a hurry and did a last minute makeup check. Redoing her eyeliner and eye shadow. She glanced at the clock and it read 8:05. She cursed quietly and ran out of the room.
When she ran down the stairs, people kept starring at her as she ran past them. She didn't pay much mind to them, but when she got into the common room… there were a lot of Gryffindors sitting by the fireplace. It looked as if they were having some sort of meeting.
She quietly walked past the group as she headed for the exit.
A boy looked over at Brittan as she inched toward the door with her back to the group of people. "Hey… is that you, Brittan?"
'SHIT!!' Brittan froze in her spot and then turned around smiling. "Yesss…" 'Shit, why did he have to see me??'
"Where have you been?" The boy looked at her as if she was supposed to have been there.
"I was sleeping in my dorm… why?"
"We were having our monthly house meeting."
"Oh… well… you'll have to fill me in some other time okay?!" Brittan said in expecting to leave as she turned around.
"Why don't I fill you in at dinner?" the boy said as put on his sexiest smile. Nothing compared to Draco's Brittan thought.
'Crap… how do I get out of this one….' Brittan thought as she turned around to the desperate looking boy. "Um… I have a meeting with a teacher. So I won't be at dinner tonight!"
"Oh… well then why not later tonight when you come back?"
'Does he ever give up?!' Brittan bit her lip. "Um… how about tomorrow at lunch?"
"Alright then!"
Brittan nodded and continued out of the common room and sprinted to the Great Hall.
She got to the Great Hall while everyone was filing in. She caught her breath and walked into the hall.
After she was done eating, she looked over to the Slytherin table and saw that Draco had already left the table. She sighed and got up from her seat. She looked around the table and it seemed that no one noticed her, so she left the hall.
When the doors closed behind her, she saw Draco leaning against a statue by a staircase. He was wearing black baggy pants with a loss button up black shirt that seemed to be made of some silky type of fabric. He looked over and saw that it was her and grinned, showing his perfect teeth.
Brittan smiled and walked over to him. "Good evening."
Draco sneered and looked down at her when she got close to him. He was at least a head and a half taller than she was. "Good evening," he leaned down and looked her in the eyes. "You're late you know?"
Brittan sighed. "Yeah I know… I fell asleep and lost track of time."
"Oh is that so?"
"I'm serious… Then some guy from my house tried to talk to me and I didn't feel like being my rude self!" Brittan said sarcastically.
"Really?"
"Would you stop questioning my and take me out side?" Brittan said playfully as she smiled Draco with a suggestive look.
"Well," Draco paused for a moment. "If you put it that way, I think I shall."
Brittan smiled and started to walk toward the doors leading outside. Draco pushed off of the statue that he had been leaning on and walked along side of her.
The night was clear like it usually was and the stars gleamed like nothing else. The trees didn't creek considering there was no wind. There were barely any clouds in the dark sky. The lake had a larger than life reflection of the moon swimming in it along with the stars.
The sound of birds came from the forest. Small happy chirps in high pitches, some loud in a lower pitch and others just a normal chirp you would hear from a passing bird. A large bird flew from the forest and across the bare sky. It made no sound. But it was bigger than any normal bird, Brittan had ever seen. "Holy shit." She said under her breath as she looked up.
"What?"
Brittan looked over at Draco to see that he was looking at her with wonder in his eyes. "That bird… didn't you see it?"
Draco looked up and saw the remainder of the bird fly into the mountains behind the castle. "Yeah… I see it all of the time." He looked back down at Brittan. "I guess that's what I get for wandering around the school grounds at night all of the time."
Brittan smiled and looked in the direction the bird had gone. She couldn't see it anymore but just the mere thought made her feel an interesting wonderful. Seeing the bird being able to fly away from everything. Fly away from its home and all that it once knew. Maybe to come back… or maybe not. She wished that she were able to do that same thing the year before. Life wouldn't have been the hell that it had been. The beating and the rape.
She shook her head and fought her emotions away. This wasn't the time to be crying about he past.
She felt Draco's hand on her shoulder and she looked over to him. His eyes were their wonderful bluish silver. There wasn't a sparkle in them, but something was different. He looked rather pleased for some reason.
She smiled and giggled a little.
"What?" Draco said letting his hand slid off of her shoulder.
"Nothing."
"Oh really…" he paused. "I don't believe you."
"Believe what you will." She smiled and continued walking.
Draco shook his head and started to walk after her.
They walked for what seem like an hour in silence, occasionally looking at each other and smiling. They came to a cliff that if you jumped off; you'd land in the lake. Draco sighed and somewhat fell backward and laid on the ground.
Brittan looked down at him and smiled. "And what might you be doing?"
"I'm giving birth," he paused. "What do you think I am doing?"
Brittan laughed and sat on the ground next to him. She pulled her knees into her chest and wrapped her arms around them looking at the wonderful view.
Draco sat up and looked at Brittan's face. A strand of hair fell over her eye. Her eyes were open and looked at peace. Thinking about nothing but about something at the same time. "I take it you don't get out that often?"
Brittan looked over and locked eyes with Draco. "Not for some time no." She gave a weak smile and then looked away.
"Why?" Draco said as he moved closer to her.
"Why what?" Brittan said, still looking into the lake.
"Why don't you get out often anymore… what happened to make you not want to do it?"
"I don't really know." She sighed and looked down at the ground. "I guess it just reminds me of… my past."
"Your past leading to your coming to Hogwarts?" Draco asked.
"Yeah." Brittan sighed again and closed her eyes. Trying to hold back the rush memories.
Draco looked at Brittan for awhile wondering what was going through her mind. Afraid to ask, but wanting to know more than anything. He shook his head and put his hand onto her back and pulled her closer to him. "Do you want to talk about it?"
Brittan looked up and looked into Draco's deep and wonderful eyes. There was still a strand of hair that was in front of her eye. Draco smiled and pushed the strand behind her ear and ran his index finger along her jawbone.
Brittan looked down at his arm and then back to his eyes. He was smiling a rather concerned smile. She felt safe with him. She felt as though she could tell him anything at that moment in time. But she didn't want to tell him. Considering that it would mean she would have to remember. And that was the last thing that she wanted to do. Maybe if she were to tell him; though she might get a load off of her chest, causing her to be able to deal with it all. Or6 it would cause her to feel extremely depressed. She didn't know, but didn't see anything wrong with trying. "Do you want the long answer, or the short one?" she said with a slight sigh in her voice.
"Which ever one you feel like telling." Draco said as he dropped his hand from her back.
Brittan looked down to the ground. Which one should she tell him? The condensed version that left a lot out or the long one which was extremely painful. So she thought about telling one that was kind of in the middle of the two.
"When I was around three," she said. "My mother and father decided to move to Alaska, with me of course. We bought a wonderful house that had a extravagant view of part of the channel. Trees everywhere and tons of animals. Everything you could ever want when you're almost three right?
"The house was wonderful and we didn't have very many neighbors, something my father enjoyed to no end. I found it kind of annoying. Considering I had no one to play with. So I would go out and play by myself. You know, those stupid adventures you go on when you're young." She smiled at the thought.
"But one night, when I was about Eleven, I came in really late from one of my 'adventures'. My father was furious and my mother seemed that she had been worried sick. I tried to explain to them that I fell asleep on a rock at the nearby waterfall. But they seemed as though they thought I was lying." She swallowed rather hard. "That was the first night my father beat me and the first night my mother just stood there not doing anything.
"Then I went off to 'Witches and Wizards Alaska Boarding School'. It was peaceful there. I didn't make very many friends at first cause I was so used to being by myself you know." She smiled slightly and looked at Draco who was listening intently.
"Anyway. Life was peaceful for about four years. During my fourth year, I changed the way I dressed to the tighter and more girlie clothing and started to wear makeup. Right before my fourth year ended, I had a bunch of friends and even one of the hottest guys in the school asking me to go out with him.
"So I came home that summer with friends to write and a boyfriend that I could go and see. But also during that summer, my father started the whole beating thing again. He had started to drink because he was in an accident at work and was on paid leave for two months. He was pissed and my mother seemed to just stop talking altogether. I didn't tell anyone about my fathers beating, even in the back of my head I knew that I should have. But I couldn't stand the thought of leaving everything."
Tears started to form in Brittan's eyes as she went on. "But once I was on my fifth year at school, I thought everything would be fine, or at least until the next summer." She sighed and thought for a moment.
Draco was sitting with one leg flat on the ground and the other pulled into his chest with his foot flat on the grassy ground. He had his arm resting on the leg that was up and his head leaning on his arm, listening carefully not to miss anything.
"But when the year ended, I had almost every fucking guy in the school trying to get a piece of me and not very many friends. Considering I had shut almost everyone out due to my summer. I guess I didn't want to tell anyone on accident. But when the year ended and summer began again, the beatings came more often.
"One of my friends wanted me to come to a party during the first month of our summer vacation. She lived about two and a half to three miles away from me; so my mother said I could and my father said he could care less. So I went and so did Sean."
"Sean being your boyfriend at the time I presume?" Draco interrupted.
Brittan sighed. "Yeah…"she shook her head slightly. "But we went together. During one of the songs he said that he had to use the restroom and left the dance floor. But about a half an hour later, the girl that was holding the party asked me where he was and that 'our song' was playing. So, I went to look for him."
"And let me guess, that's when you found him cheating on you yesss?" Draco prophesied.
Brittan sighed again. "Yeah." She ran her fingers threw her hair and continued. "That's when I ran from the party out to the front yard and he caught up with me. Trying to tell me that the girl was forcing him to do it and other stupid excuses that cheating men come up with. We quarreled a bit and I finally got away.
"I ran all the way to my house with a stop at a near by park. My mother was reading her paper and I didn't see my father. I went to my room to change into my pj's and go to sleep. But after I got into my pj's, my father came in and he beat me for just the hell of being there. When he left, I took a shower to wash off all of the blood. When I came out into my room with just a towel on, I saw Sean sitting on my bed." tears started to roll down Brittan's cheek. They glistened in the light of the crescent moon. "That's when he raped me."
At that, Draco gave a faint gasp. He wasn't expecting something of that magnitude. He saw the tears rolling down her cheeks as they showed so well in the darkness.
"But after that, I wrote a letter to Professor Dumbledore about everything and he said that he would arrange for me to be removed as son as possible." Brittan tried to wipe away a tear as she cleared her throat. "He came to my door in person with an order of a muggle court that said he could take me away. My father fought and my mother cried. But Dumbledore took me and I lived with him for the rest of the summer. He's really quite nice for an old man." She smiled, trying to hide the sadness in her face. "He said that he was thinking about adopting me… figure that."
"Brittan…" Draco started, but couldn't find any words to follow. He pulled her in to a hug and wiped another tear away from her cheek.
Brittan couldn't help but cry. She wrapped her arms tightly around his waist and cried. Draco sat there coursing the back of her head and cooing her.
Brittan suddenly pulled away and stood up. She walked over to a near by tree and ran her fingers through her hair, trying at the same time to stop crying and get stop her makeup from running. Draco gave a weak smile and stood up.
Brittan turned her back to the tree and looked at Draco as he started to walk towards her. She wanted to be in his arms but now that she remembered what had happened, she realized that she liked him and that she wasn't really ready for a boyfriend just then. That her heart was still tender from her summer happenings, she was scared of being hurt and forced to do things that she didn't want to do. She shook her head and cupped her face with her hands.
"Brittan… are you going to be okay?" Draco said as he put his hand on her shoulder. She flinched and pulled away from his
grasp. "Brittan, what's wrong?"
She looked him in the eye. Those eyes that she had fallen for. If Draco wasn't standing there, she would have laughed. She was so naïve, falling for the first handsome guy she met. She felt like an idiot. She didn't even know him and she felt as though she trusted him more than anyone she had ever met and could tell him anything. How she had threw herself at his feet and played to his liking. Wanting him and thinking that he cared about her. Or did he?
Brittan buried her face in her hands again. Trying to make since of everything. She shook her head furiously. She let her hands fall to her sides and she started to walk toward the direction of the castle.
"Brittan, what are you doing?!" Draco said as he grabbed her lightly by the wrist.
She jerked her wrist free and looked at Draco. He looked perfect in the moonlight. So wonderful, so sexy and so nice. But she didn't know the real him. She was confused beyond anything she had ever felt before. She caught herself crying again and quickly caught the tear before Draco could see it in the moonlight.
He stepped in front of her and ran his hand on her cheek. "Brittan…" he ran his fingers through her hair.
"Draco, don't." she whispered as she tried to walk past him.
He sighed and she continued walking toward the castle.
The night suddenly felt cold as she walked away, leaving him to stand there by himself. She didn't look back and fought the temptation to run back to her dormitory and just sleep. She felt a cold shiver crawled up her back and she crossed her arms over her chest.
She stopped for a moment and looked up at the sky. The clearness of the night had lessened into a cloudy abyss. She couldn't see the moon anymore and she only saw a select few of the once bright beacon like stars. She couldn't hear any of the once happy birds she had heard before. The lake looked as if it were a large pool of blood it was so dark. She was beginning to think that she was walking through a totally different area than she had earlier that night. The castle even looked different.
The halls of the castle were even colder and seemed to be filled with death. Nothing seemed lively. Not even the pictures and paintings on the many walls. All of the colors seemed dull and dark full of depression and hatred. Guess that's what happens when you're depressed or confused. Everything around seems to have changed when it really hasn't. You just seem to pull out the darker parts of things that you wouldn't normally see when you are in a happy and cheerful mood.
Even the portrait of the fat lady seemed dark. Even though she was still in her shocking pink dress like she had always been, it seem to be a shade different tonight.
The common room was empty and the fire was dying down to a smolder. She sighed and continued walking to her dorm room.
When she opened the door, she found Hermione sitting on her bed writing in what seemed like a journal. Hermione had heard the annoying creek of the door and looked up to see who it was. She saw Brittan standing in the doorway smiling a weak smile.
"You're back sooner than I thought." She said with a large smile on her face.
Brittan just nodded and she closed the door. She walked to her dresser and pulled out a clean pair of night cloths and went into the bathroom. Before she shut the door she said back to Hermione, "I'll be in the shower."
Hermione stared at the now closed door and thought for a moment. She shrugged and thought nothing of it that she was just tired and felt dirty or something and went back to her writing.
***
Draco stood there and watched Brittan walk to the castle. Something in his heart seemed to have broke at that very moment. He wanted to run to her and hug her. He wanted to tell her that everything was alright and whatever it was that was bugging her she could tell him and he would do his best to make it right. That he would do whatever it took to make her feel safe and at peace with herself and the rest of the world.
He saw her disappear behind the castle doors and that was that. Any chance of running after her now wouldn't prove anything. He felt cold and hurt for some reason. She hadn't even said goodbye. He shook his head. He shouldn't be feeling sorry for his self when he knew what kind of hell Brittan had come from.
He didn't know why Brittan acted the way she did after she told him about her past. He wanted to know but didn't want her to feel hurt any more than she already did. He sighed a heavy sigh and started to walk to the castle.
The clouds were heavy and the lake was dark. He heard creeks from the trees indicating that there was wind and that there would be high winds tomorrow. Maybe even a storm. He started to walk faster and rain started to fall. In heavy sheets over the large school grounds. Soaking everything underneath it, including Draco.
When he walked into the Slytherin common room, there were Slytherin's passed out everywhere. He shook his head as he saw all of the cups that were probably filled with some alcoholic beverage earlier that night. The disposable cups were everywhere and so were reminisce of other food products.
He walked the short walk to his dorm room and found that Crabbe and Goyle weren't in the room. They were probably one of the many people passed out down stairs.
He sighed and sat on his bed. He bent forward and cradled his head in his hands. He groaned and stood up and hit the wall.
He didn't know what to do, he was frustrated, he wanted to help Brittan but didn't know how he could without her braking down all over again. He looked over at his desk and saw a piece of parchment and his quill. He stared at it for a moment and sighed. "Hell, it seemed to have worked before!"
He sat at his desk and began to write furiously. He shook Glander awake after he had put the letter into the envelope. Glander glared at him but let him tie the letter to his leg and flew over to the window.
Draco walked over to the window and patted Glander on the head. "Take that to Brittan Arkin… got that?" Glander gave a nod and Draco opened the window to let him out.
***Brittan's Dorm***
Brittan stepped out of the bathroom in her clean nightclothes and saw that Hermione and gone to sleep. All of the lights were off except for the one next to her bed. She smiled and walked over.
She stopped and looked at Zuni her fruit bat. He was looking outside in wonder and then looked at Brittan. "What, you want out?" The bat nodded it's little head with a squeak of approval. Brittan smiled and walked to the window. She opened it and heard the rain. "You sure you want out… it's raining pretty hard." She said as she picked Zuni up off of his stand. He seemed as if he was looking outside and squeaked again. "Alright… I'll let you in, in the morning!" And with that Zuni flew off into the rain-covered night.
Brittan closed the window quietly and turned around to her dresser when she heard a loud thump from behind her. She whipped around to see that a bird had flown into the window. "SHIT!" He half yelled and jumped to the window, opening it in a rush.
The bird shook its head and hopped into the room. It was Glander, Draco's eagle that he used to send letters.
She sighed and took an owl treat from the desk and gave to him. She untied the letter from his leg and said that he could go if he wanted. He nodded an flew off into the wetness of the night.
The letter was of course from Draco. "Damn it… I am not in the mood for him right now… I thought he would have gotten the picture…" She sighed.
"What the hell was that noise?" Hermione said in a grumble of a voice as she turned over in her bed.
