Chapter 9: Hospital Wing
Draco stared at the glass that held the poison. He realized he hadn't made sure if Ginny was okay yet.
He shook her, when she didn't wake he checked her pulse. He felt a slight beat. He sighed with relief. She was alive, that's good to know.
He shook her again, this time her eyes fluttered open and looked up at him weakly.
"Morning, love." Draco said he lifted her off the bed.
"What's going on? Why are you in the Gryffindor Common Room?" She struggled to get the words out.
"Shhh... Don't worry about that. I've got to get you up into the hospital wing and tell Madam Pomfrey what's wrong with you."
She closed her eyes and relaxed into his arms. "You know?" She asked realizing what he had just said.
"Of course. Look who your talking to. I'm Draco Malfoy. I know everything." He smirked.
Ginny was about to say a come back but she was to weak to talk.
Draco set her down on a hospital bed. "Now stay right here I'm going to get Madam Pomfrey." He turned to walk away but looked back and said, "If anything happens while I'm gone try to scream and if that doesn't work, try to make some sort of noise."
Ginny nodded deciding it wasn't a good idea to argue with Draco right now.
She heard the door close. She stared at the ceiling. What was wrong with her? Why was she so weak? She knew she hadn't done anything to stress her muscles. What could've made her so sick? She was always reading up on medical magic and sickness and she didn't know any kind of sickness that made you this weak unless, someone had poisoned her.
Is that what Draco knew and she didn't? Did he know who did this? She asked herself as she heard the door open and some foot movement. She couldn't move her head very far to see who it was, all she knew was that it wasn't Draco because he didn't drag his feet on the ground.
She screamed as loud as she could as Lucius Malfoy's face came into her sight. He covered her mouth. "Shut up girl!" He said in a low deathly tone.
She nodded.
She heard the door open again. She automatically knew Draco was there. She could feel him. He made her feel safe and protected.
"Damn it." Lucius muttered as he took out a tiny object out of his cloak. He griped it and disappeared.
Draco ran over to Ginny. "Are you alright?" He asked with concern. He was afraid of what would've happened if he had arrived a couple of minutes later. From the look of it she looked unharmed, just a little shocked.
"Where did he go?" She asked.
"Probably back to his master."
She glared at him.
"Oh, that. Father always prefers to travel by Portkey if he can't Apparate. So he always has something handy if he needs it." Draco grabbed her hand and squeezed it. "Forget about him right now. How are you?"
"Just a little weak." She looked at him and removed her hand from his. "How did you know I was getting poisoned?"
"I didn't until I remembered how you looked like my mother the night she died." He closed his eyes trying to get the picture out of his head. "I asked the fat lady to let me in and after some persuading she gave in." He paused. "I remembered that the girls dorms were to the right and the years were written on the doors so that wasn't a problem. I walked in and saw my father standing next to your bedside. He disappeared and I ran over to your glass and smelled it, I've always known what poison smelled like because when I was a child I would always have to check my glasses before I drank anything because my father was forever trying to poison me."
He sat down feeling guilty and responsible for what has happened. "I'm sorry that you had to be put through this Gin."
She smiled as best as she could. "It's not your fault."
Draco watched as Madam Pomfrey gave Ginny some type of medicine. Just thinking about Ginny being poisoned by his father made him think. His mother had had the same symptoms and she always had a glass of water or wine by her bedside. It was the only logical reason. She wasn't very old, so she couldn't have died from old age. It also made sense to the fact that Lucius hadn't been upset when she died. So it was his entirely fault. He killed his wife and almost killed Ginny.
He had killed 2 people that cared about Draco; he wasn't going to kill the 3rd even if Draco had to die trying to kill the bastard.
"You should try to go to bed Mr. Malfoy." Madam Pomfrey said as she set the medicine down.
Draco shook his head. "I'll be fine." He looked at Ginny. "Can I please stay here? I don't want to leave her alone."
Madam Pomfrey looked at Draco and could see that he needed to be here. The boy had been through a lot lately and just seeing the loving look he had given Ginny, she couldn't refuse him. "Of course." She smiled.
Draco grinned at her and pulled up a chair to Ginny.
"Ginny dear. You have to stay awake for a little while. So try to keep yourself up."
Ginny nodded. "Alright."
"I'll be back in a little while to check on you." She walked out the door.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Two hours later Draco's head was on the bed and he was sound asleep. Ginny was propped against her pillow and running her fingers through his ungelled hair. It was soft when it wasn't gelled. He also looked cuter with his hair in his face.
"Are you alright dear?" Madam Pomfrey asked as she walked in for her check up.
Ginny looked up at her. "Yeah I'm alright but I think Draco was exhausted. He dead asleep. I don't think a hurricane could wake him up."
"You know you can tell he loves you. Just by the way he looks at you." Madam Pomfrey smiled looking at Draco's sleeping figure.
"I know. But I don't think it's going to work with me and him." Ginny said disappointedly.
"Why not?"
"Well because my parents don't like him, my brother Ron hates him and his family and my family have always been rivals. My family will probably disown me when they find out about me and Draco." Ginny said with tears starting to fill her eyes.
"I know your parents really good and I don't think they would disown their daughter." She looked at Ginny. "Although I do have to ask you this. If you did have to choose between Draco and your family, which would it be?"
Ginny looked at her wiping the unshed tears from her eyes. "I think it would have to be Draco because my family doesn't know him the way that I do and I hate how they always judge people before they actually know them. Expecially my brother Ron."
Madam Pomfrey grinned at the girl and walked to the door. "Have a good night Ginny, you can go to bed now. You should be fine."
"Thank you Madam Pomfrey. You saved my life." Ginny smiled.
"That's what I'm here for dear." She walked out and shut the door silently behind her.
Ginny stared at the door for a couple of seconds and then turned her attention to Draco. She kissed his cheek. "I love you Draco. I hope everything works out okay." She grabbed his hand and covered herself up and fell asleep.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Draco woke up. He felt the sun on his face. He looked up to notice that he was still in the Hospital wing with Ginny.
He sat up and looked at her. She looked pretty with her flaming red hair in the sun, it made it look like it was on fire.
Draco stared at her for a long time.
He jumped when he heard a noise from behind him. He turned and saw the famous Gryffindor trio.
"What the hell did you do to my sister Malfoy." Ron yelled.
"Calm down Weasley, I didn't do anything to her. I saved her." Draco said moving a stand of red hair from her eyes.
"Yeah right, that'll be the day." Ron laughed.
"Actually, he did save her Mr. Weasley. If he didn't bring her here, she would've died in her sleep last night." Madam Pomfrey said as she pasted. She winked at Draco, when she knew Ron wasn't looking.
Draco grinned. "See, I did."
Ron grumbled and sat down on the other side of Ginny.
Because of all the noise Ginny woke up. She looked at her brother and then Draco. "Morning." She smiled.
"Morning." Draco answered back. "How are you feeling? Are you any better?"
"Yes I'm feeling much better thanks." She turned to her brother and his friends. "Can you give me and Draco a couple of minutes please, we need to talk alone."
"Fine." Ron stood up and walked out knowing he wouldn't win an argument with her right now.
Draco looked at Ginny. "I know what you're going to say and you should know what I'm going to tell you so it's a worthless fight."
"Draco I don't want you to get hurt and yes I know your going to tell me that you have to but, no you don't. What am I suppose to do if you die? Am I suppose to sit here and wait for someone to come here and tell me, 'oh did you know the love of your life is dead.'"
Draco sighed. He knew it was worthless but he had to make her see. "Ginny, I can't let him live. He's already killed 2 people I love, and he almost killed the last person. I could've almost lost you last night. Did you know that? How do you think I felt you almost died because of me."
"But I'm fine." She argued.
"And I'll be fine. I know how to handle my father. I'm sick of running away, you were right, I was scared and I'm through being scared. He killed my mother Gin, I'm not going to let him live, no matter what I will kill him." Draco said with so much hate in his voice he scared Ginny.
"It's not that I don't trust you Draco. I just don't know if I can live without you." Ginny kissed him. "Promise me you'll come back." She demanded.
Draco stood up. He headed towards the door.
"Promise me!" She yelled.
Draco stopped and turned around. "I'm not promising anything I can't keep." He walked out.
