Chapter 15
Drama Queens have Feelings Too…
(Sorry this took so long to get out)
(A/N: Dark Chapter)
Narcissa wondered down the cold hallway of Malfoy Manor. Tears slid silently down her face.
Her husband was dead.
She was alone, surely he loved her…and now he was gone, gone from her warm loving arms into the flames of hell.
She leaned against a wall thinking of her son. Her precious son, the only thing she has left. Narcissa yelled for a house elf.
"Bring me a scroll and quill…"
***
Narcissa wrote everything she needs to down. All the money that the family has ever accumulated was left in Draco's hands, this manor, this property, was his.
My son,
We have had many problems, and you have by no means showed me the respect you ought to have done. However, it is time for us to forget the past. Your father loved you Draco, he really did. Although, he was rough on you…he wanted you to be the best, and rule the best.
Draco, right now, I am confused…I want to leave and forget, yet, I want my family back. What am I saying? Your father was a cruel man, and wanted to see the end of day come upon half of the world. Your father was a monster, and I am scared for you…last year, my heart was ripped out when you were suspended for raping those girls. I want to know that you'll be safe, and loved. I am leaving Draco, I am leaving you. I am to rejoin your father in the underworld. Draco, do not be sadden. You have money, and a place to live. Take care of yourself, my darling son. Mummy has always loved you. Make me proud.
Love,
Mum
Narcissa rolled up the scroll and attached several keys to the end of it, the keys to the mansion and the keys to the Gringotts bank. She handed them to the house elf.
"Send these immediately…" she said hoarsely. The elf nodded and hurried down the hallway to the owl room. Narcissa cried as she slipped her wand against the bottom of her chin.
"Avada Kedavra"

I awoke from a sudden movement. Ginny was crawling into my bed, her red hair surrounding her pale freckled face.
"Hey there," she said quietly.
"Hi…what's going on? Are you okay?" Ginny shook her head from side to side. My heart began to race. "What's wrong?"
"I missed your face…" I relaxed.
"I missed your face too. What's today?"
"Friday…it's one o' clock in the morning, don't worry, classes haven't started yet," she said reassuringly. She wrapped her arms around me, throwing a leg across my hip. I chuckled. Ginny yawned and eventually slipped into an easy sleep. I went along with her. I was again, awoken but this time by a tapping noise. I sat up and edged towards the side of the bed. I quietly walked over to the window, not wanting to wake Ginny or my room mates, who fortunately were heavy sleepers. He knew how Blaise reacted whenever he saw Ginny in the room. I opened the window and a blast of early winters wind hit my bare stomach. An owl hooted cheerfully and landed on my shoulder. Its talons tore at my skin. It stuck out its legs. A scroll and a small pouch were attached to it.
I undid the strings and read the scroll. It was from mother. Immediately I fell to the floor, gasping. A lump was bobbing in my throat. She's dead. She's dead. Anger swelled up inside me, and was then replaced but the feeling of betrayal and guilt.
I was so cruel to her. I told her I hated her…
Ginny easily got off the bed and saw me on the floor and hurried to my side. She took the scroll from my limp hand. She read it and gasped.
"A suicide letter…" Ginny confirmed.
"She's gone…why in the hell would she do this to me? I'm her SON," I whispered fiercely. Ginny, wrapped her arms around me comforting ly.
"Promise me you'll never leave me," I asked her quietly.
"Draco…I," she started. I pulled her onto the floor and pinned her down. "Draco!" she shrieked. I was on top of her, fear flooded her eyes.
"Don't leave me Gin…"
"I won't, never…"
My blood began to pound in my veins. If she leaves me…I'll have no one…I kissed her roughly on the lips. She cried from shock.
"Draco…?" She asked sadly. She tried to push me off of her. I can't do this…I can't.
"I'm sorry," I said, getting off of her. Ginny stood up to lie on the bed. She curled up in a tight ball and closed her eyes. She was upset at me.
I took the covers and wrapped her in it. My head was spinning with frustration, anger, and hate. I was left with billions of galleons, a mansion and servants…but no family…Ginny is all I have…my family is gone. No one is left.

Psychological humiliate
There's a lady who's sure all that glitters is gold
And she's buying a stairway to heaven.
When she gets there she knows, if the stores are all closed
With a word she can get what she came for.
Ooh, ooh, and she's buying a stairway to heaven.
She crept to the side of my bed with nothing but a lace bra and knickers. The bra straps slid up and down her shoulders and she moved. Her red hair cascaded down her back. She sat down on the edge of the bed, her back facing me.
"Undo my strap Colin," she whispered. I did as I was told, subjecting to her authority. I touched her back gingerly. When I lifted her long hair up to unsnap the latches to her bra, I inhaled sharply. She had ugly bruises running up to her shoulder, all the way down to her bottom.
"This is some good work, eh?" I asked, kissing her back. She shivered and nodded.
"What are you doing here Ginny?" I asked sitting up. She turned to me, looking down at her folded hands, she was still shivering.
"I missed you," she whined. I pushed her onto the bed, wrapping my arms fully around her. She rested her head onto my chest. She knew I could try and kill her again if she didn't listen to me.
"Bullshit Ginny…you came here for something,"
"I just wanted you to hold me," she said. I looked down at her in disgust. Since when has she ever acted like this? I pulled away from her. I rolled on top of her. I'll have to force the information out of her. I straddled her hips and bounded her wrists to the headboard. She began to whimper and I cast a silence charm so no one in the room would awake to her screaming.
I ripped her knickers off, she screamed.
"Why have you been coming to me?" I asked.
"I don't know!" she cried. I slapped her across the face. She growled and tried to kick me off. She wasn't getting away this easily. I roamed her body, picking and prodding, demanding to know what she wants with me, tormenting her…about and hour later, she was panting, her face red, and blood was smeared on her stomach and lower regions. I spitted on her. She turned her head away from me; broken…her spirit was broken.
"Get out of here," I said, taking off the binding charms. I tossed a robe to her so she wouldn't be seen bloodied up and naked walking to her dorm. She limped out of the door, closing it quietly.
I cleaned up the blood stains with my wand and went back to sleep.
***
She limped towards the seventh year dorms, and silently cried to herself. She needed help.
Leaning against the walls, her knees grew weak and she slid down the wall, her head spinning. The potion was slowly wearing off. Soon, curly blonde hair appeared instead of straight red hair. The freckles disappeared and pinkish cheeks took its place. Parvati appeared. She tasted the salty tears and looked down to see the cuts and blood on her, wincing. She stood up and gasped. When she got up, a puddle of blood remained. She continued into the dorm, reaching for her wand, she cleaned up the mess she had created outside her door. Afterwards, she locked herself in the girl's bathroom to clean herself up. She had hand marks running up and down her body. Fingernail marks, bite marks…he even used a hex to slice my skin. He used his wand as…as…a tool…she said in her head. She looked in the mirror to see her bruised face. She stepped into the shower and scrubbed dried blood from her skin. She still felt dirty. All she wanted was love…all she wanted, was Colin. The blood swirled and disappeared down the drain. She knew Colin had a crush on Ginny. One night, she came across a book and made polyjuice potion, and clipped a couple of Ginny's hair when she fell asleep in the common room.
She hadn't expected the abuse
The pain
The evil that Colin has in him
She didn't expect it at all
She dried herself and slipped her uniform on carefully, not wanting to disturb the healing charms. The bruises on her face were gone, but it was still sore.
The Drama Queen had feelings also…
She loved Ron once,
She loved Harry once,
And they all found their love.
What's wrong with me?

I ran down the hall, almost slipping on a wet floor from Peeves, and dodged my way into Transfiguration. Professor McGonagall sat behind her tidy desk, writing. Hermione looked up from her parchment notebook and frowned at me. Ron sat next to her, copying her notes. I stood framed in the doorway.
"Mr. Potter, are you going to take your seat…" she drawled.
"Yes," I said, taking my seat in-between Hermione and Ron. Hermione scribbled something on her parchment.
What happened? Where have you been?
I scribbled back
I was stopped by Filch. Don't ask why, I don't know myself…
Hermione turned to it and replied.
Oh, okay. Hehe, I missed you…
I smiled and leaned over to peck her cheek. Professor McGonagall looked up from her paper to give me a "get to work" look.

"Draco…I know you must feel horrible, but honey, she loved you, she was your mum. She's at peace as long as you're at peace," I said to him on the stairs. We skipped our first class. Draco pressed his body against mine as we stood against the stairs wall. He wrapped his arms around my waist as we talked. Draco sighed.
"Ginny…I'm just worried, I'm hurting inside," Draco said looking down at me. I wrapped my arms around him tighter.
"I know, and I'm sorry. Draco…I'm so sorry," I said. What else could I say? I'm speechless. What his mum did was horrifying; it's so hard to comprehend. She killed herself to be chain to someone who probably never loved her.
"Ginny, you're my family now," Draco whispered in my ear, touching the side of my face with his nose. The bell rang. We had to get to our next class. Draco kissed me soundly on the lips and left.
