Not All That Bad Part Two

By Tru Lys

Malfoy was in denial.

The very idea that his father could do something so-so disgusting, to hurt someone who held his son's heart. It was too much to bear.

Rushing to his love he ran right into Madam Pomfrey, who was guarding the hospital wing.

"And just where do you think you're going young man?"

"Uh, Professor Sprout told me to get you. She said it as urgent."

Draco was especially proud of his quick lying skills.

"Oh, dear. Would you mind staying here and making sure that nobody disturbs the patients?"

"Of course not. You go ahead now."

"I'll be back soon."

"Okay, bye now."

As soon as the warden was out of sight, Malfoy ran to his beloved's bedside. She was sleeping.

"Hermione! Hermione! You have to understand; I am NOTHING like my father. I care about you. I would NEVER hurt you! I-I love you."

Just before Madam Pomfrey walked in, Draco left. The memory of his lovers smile in his eyes.

I have to thank all of my reviewers. All THREE of them. I feel so special.

Anyways, I hoped this was sweet enough for you. Anyone who can guess what year this is gets a chocolate cookie!
