Chapter 9
Nightmares and Answers
Draco woke up in the middle of the night from the thunderstorm raging outside.
He got out of his bed and walked over to the bay window wrapping his comforter around his cold body. He sat down staring out across the grounds.
He let his head drop against the window thanking the gods that it was Saturday.
/Fool! You made a complete idiot of yourself!/ He thought bitterly. /She probably told all her friends and her brother. Boy is he going to be laughing in potions on Monday. I need to fly, maybe I'll die if I do. Oh well, I have practice tomarrow so that will hopefully ease my nerves. I should probably go to bed./
He stood up and walked back to his bed and laid down. He soon drifted into an uneasy sleep.
/He was standing in the middle of the quidditch field and the stands were full to capacity.
He could pick out several peoples faces: Potter's, Weasley's Mudblood's, Ginny's, his dad's, Snapes and several of his fellow slytherins.
He heard laughter and he looked down and he was standing there in only a pair of white boxers. He turned beet red and he looked back up and all the people he had recognized earlier were now standing in a circle around him. He jumped and they all chuckled.
Lucius stepped foreward very closely to his son and glared at him, "You are a disappointment. You are a disgrace to the name of Malfoy,"
"But dad I—"
"I am not your father! I have no son!" And he turned and disappeared.
Blaise stepped foreward next and punched Draco hard in the stomach.
"What the he—"
"Shut up! Why would you ever go for scum like her? She is a blood traitor! Do you have any pride?" Blaise said looking down at his friend with disappointment all over his eyes.
"Blaise I—"He started pleadingly.
"Save it!" And he turned and left.
Next Potter, Weasley and Granger stood in front of him and all pointed and laughed. Snape just shook his head, and his other classmates beat him. Finally it was Ginny's turn. At first it looked as if she was going help him out but she sneered at him, then kicked him hard making him fall to the ground where she continued to kick him. Finally after kicking him hard in the groin she leaned over him and whispered in his ear, "You never had a chance in hell, Malfoy," and she stood up and spat at him.
He woke up sitting up breathing hard with cold sweat trickling down from his forehead. That dream was basis of all his thoughs ever since he gave her the note.
Draco tried to go back to bed so he finished up his homework then headed down to breakfast.
It was still raining out when Draco headed to practice that afternoon. He walked into the locker room and began to strip down to change into his quidditch robes.
He heard a catcall and turned around and saw Blaise standing there laughing.
"Well, hello to you too," Draco said with a grin.
Blaise was still chuckling as he began to change next to him.
"Umm...Blaise?"
"Mmm?"
"If I were to say have a crush on someone other than a Slytherin and isn't 100% loyal to their blood would you have a problem with it?"
"Did you have a problem with me being bi when I told you?"
"What? No, what does that have to do with my que—"
"Then I wouldn't have a problem with it. Who is it? Spill it!" Before Draco had a chance to say Blaise said, "It's Granger isn't it!"
"Fuck no! Right house though but wrong age, she's younger than us,"
Blaise thought for a moment then said, "What girls are in Gyffindor that aren't in our class? Oh! I know its Amy Wright!"
"That first year!" Draco practically shouted.
Blaise just chuckled then joked, "Ginny Weasley,"
Draco grew silent and dawning appeared on his face, "Oh my God you like a Weasley! Wait until Snape finds out."
"He can't!" Draco said desperately.
"Alright. So are you two going out?" Blaise said pulling his slytherin sweater over his head.
Draco just laughed hollowly finishing tying his shoes and he walked past the rest of the team that just arrived.
Blaise quickly finished and ran after Draco into the pouring rain. "Does she know?" He said mounting his broom as Draco did.
"Yeah, I told her last night, and then I kind of left right away."
Blaise lifted into the air after Draco.
Finally everyone else came out of the lockerroom. They had a great practice and Draco being captain called it quits when lightening stated.
He was last to emerge from the locker room now cleaned of all the mud and he had just her his broomstick back into the cupboard.
He was walking back towards the castle when he saw someone running towards him. He stoppped and saw who it was.
/Oh shit/
She stopped in front of him and he felt as if his late pet snake was squirming inside his stomach. "Umm..about last night I—"
He felt warm lips pressed against his warming up his body from the cold wind. She pulled away a second later and he looked into her eyes before pulling her back and passionately kissing her. His flicked his tongue out and ran it along her bottom lip and she opened her mouth for him feeling his velvety tongue slide along every curve and crevous in her mouth. She fought for dominance with her tongue as she slid her arms around his wet body.
They slowly broke apart looking at each other.
"So whats the 'L' stand for?" She said breaking the pleasant silence grinning.
"What? Oh Lucius," He said resting his forehead on her's. "That's an intense kiss you have there Ms. Weasley," He said smiling at her.
She blushed and smiled, "You're not bad yourself," She shivered slightly.
He wrapped his arms around her to give her warmth, "We should probably go inside."
He led her back to the common room for the second time in twenty-four hours and they stopped just outside the Gryffindor common room.
"Wait, can I stay with you tonight," She said with slight terror in her eyes.
He noticed the fear, "What is it?"
"N-nothing," she said averting her eyes from his gaze.
"Gin," He said gently touching her face.
"Why do you want me to stay with you tonight?" He said gently.
She shook her head.
"You-you just want some company," she nodded "Alright, my dorm or your's?"
"Your's," She said clinging to him.
He nodded and they walked back to his dorm.
Once safely inside Draco turned to Ginny, "What's wrong?"
"Nothing. Is something wrong with you? You look troubled,"
"I..I had a dream,"
"What about?"
"I don't know how to explan it, hold on," he stood up and walked over to a cabinate and pulled out a stone basin put his wand to his temple and drew out a memory and put it in the basin. Motioning for Ginny to come over she did and looked into the basin. She touched th surface of liquid in the basin and she seemed to be sucked inside. It swirled around and she was gone. Draco sat down in a chair waiting for the memory to be over where he would pull Ginny out.
Fifteen minutes later Ginny was now safely out of the basin and she hugged him.
"Hun that would never happen, and if it did I wouldn't participate," He nodded hugging her back.
They sat back on the couch and ginny had her arms around Draco who had his head on her chest. Ginny was playing with his soft hair when she smiled, "I like this side of you. Your really not the bad ass Slytherin all the time,"
He smirked, "Yeah well, I only let this side show for the people I really care about," and he sat up and looked in her eyes with a smile, not a smirk or a sneer but a genuine smile.
"You should do that more often,"
"What?"
"Smile, it looks good on you," and he smiled again blushing slightly.
He looked at his watch and said, "We should probably go to bed, my beds in the other room,"
"Aren't you..aren't you gonna come with me?"
He shook his head, "I'm going to sleep on the couch,"
"Umm, could you come with me? It would make me feel a lot better.."
"Alright," He said standing up with her and they walked to his bedroom.
They slid into bed and after Draco got a definate answer that she was okay with them sleeping in the same bed and that she was comfortable and she didn't need anything he finally settled into bed. He felt Ginny move closer and smiled and put his arms around her and moved over so they wouldn't fall off the bed in the middle of the night. Ginny laid her head on his bare chest and smiled at how soft his skin was and finally their breathing evened out.
/It was two summers ago and Draco was in his room writing a composition for Defense Against the Dark Arts when someone began to loudly band on his door as if tempting to break it down.
"DRACO OPEN THE DOOR RIGHT NOW!" His father yelled.
Draco quickly got off the bed and opened the door to find his very pissed off dad.
"Umm...hi," he said timidly
"Don't you 'umm hi' me mister!" Lucius said his face livid.
"Sorry Sir. What can I help you with?" Draco said cowering slightly.
"Where the hell is Dozer?" Nina told me that he was set free...by you!"
gulp
"God damnit Draco! That's the forth one this summer!" Lucius exploded.
"I'm sorry Sir," Draco squeeked scared for his life.
"Well not sorry enough!" Lucius yelled taking out his wand and screaming the crucatius curse.
Draco cried out in pain and felt as if he was being ripped in half. Lucius took the opportunity to blast his son backwards into a priceless antique mirror cutting Draco's back up.
Lucius quickly strode foreward and ripped Draco's cloths off and magiked his own off and thrust mercilessly into his son.
Draco was crying in pain as he felt as if he was being ripped open from the inside and his face was getting cut up from the glass his face was being crushed into.
"Daddy, please. Don't...don't do this...I'm your son."
The pain didn't stop though. He opened his eyes a fresh wave of anger washing over him. He couldn't take it anymore. He spotted a rather long piece of glass and snatched it and plunged it deep into the man he once called a father's chest. Lucius screamed in pain and fell to the ground writhing in pain and blood spurtting everywhere.
Narcissa ran into the room and screamed at her bloodied raped son and he bloody dead husband and fainted/
Draco woke up screaming sitting up staring around the room in panic.
Ginny woke up and looked at him with fearful eyes, "Draco? What is it?!"
His heart was pounding and tears mingled with the cold sweat that was trinkling down his face. His breathing was ragged and Ginny pulled him into a hugged and whispered softly in his ear to try and calm him down.
Several minutes later Ginny finally calmed Draco down and he was explaining what had happened. She was crying holding Draco tightly, "I never knew."
"It wasn't so much that pain, or the no's that I said or stop, but the fact that he didn't stop when I told him I was his son. I was his fucking son for God's sake. What drives someone to rape and beat their own kid?" Draco fumed.
Ginny didn't know what to say so she remained silent and gently rocked her boyfriend.
"I know what it's like," She finally said.
"What?" He said completely thrown off.
"I-I was raped."
"What!? By who?"
"You know that night after the Prefect's meeting,"
"Yeah,"
"Well, after you left, my ex, umm he grabbed me from behind as soon as you were gone and he room me to the room of requirements and, I said no, we arent together anymore, but all he said was that I would like it, and he raped me, then left me there once he was done,"
"Oh. My. God. Ill kill him,"
"No! You can't!"
"He raped you Ginny!"
"I know, but I don't want you to go to Azkaban for killing him,"
"But—"
"No!" she said as if ending the conversation.
He nodded and laid down. Ginny followed suit and put her head back on his chest. "Do you want some dreamless potion?" She said softly.
"No, I'm okay,"
With that said they both fell asleep in each others embrace until the morning dreaming of each other.
