RECAP ON CHAPTER FIVE:
………………… Atalanta and Alice looked at each other, and had the look of confusion painted on there faces. This was getting to overwhelming for the girls. They got up to the Hospital Wing and all there stress was taken off there shoulders. Madame Pomfrey healed their wounds and kept Theodore over night. The grieved mothers went back up to Dumbledore's office and the two girls stayed behind. "You two look like you need a brandy," Pomfrey said giving the two girls a glass each filled too the top of Brandy.
'I don't know if I can handle this year, I don't know if I can handle this odd relationship with Draco.' Alice thought drinking her brandy. Draco took a swig when Madame Pomfrey wasn't looking and Alice smiled slightly.
Dumbledore came in with the parents and pronounced there punishment, "Were doing dorm arrest, you boys will stay in your dorm for the next month without going anywhere besides classes. Blaise Zabini you will stay with Alice and Draco and Theodore will stay in his normal dorm. Alice we're trusting you to control the two, there will be no visitations for the boys and the arrest will start tonight. Professor Snape is gathering your things Blaise and will relocate them in the bedroom we've attached to Draco and Alice's regular dorm," Dumbledore informed.
The parents said there goodbyes and Lucius sat next to Alice and whispered to her so only she could hear, "Alice… if he gives you any troubles owl me." Alice nodded, "I doubt this Mr. Malfoy, what happens if this leaks out into the Ministry? What will they do to you and Draco?"
Lucius sighed, "I don't know Alice, I really don't know." …………..
Chapter Six: Imprisonment
It was a couple weeks since the out break of the boys and everything calmed down besides the continuous flow of letters to Professor Dumbledore. Most concerned parents were afraid that the two boys were going to go on a killing rampage and kill the students. By request the teachers checked for Death Eater marks on all students down to the first years. Many people were horrified of Draco and Blaise; it was like a night mare coming true.
The Malfoy's and the Zabini's were hiding from the Ministry not wanting to be thrown in Azkaban. It was horrible, Hogwarts was guarded by Ministry Aurors they watched Draco and Blaise each class they went to they would follow. Dumbledore was outraged most of the time and didn't leave his office.
Sitting on the floor Draco was writing his essay for Professor Snape, "I feel like a freak, staying in this room all the time," he said out of the blue and sighed putting his head in his hands. Blaise already had gone to bed and it was only Alice and Draco that were up at this hour. Alice sat next to and sighed, "At least your not one, I'm actually a freak." Draco looked at her like she was crazy. Alice smiled and kissed him softly on the cheek he was going to kiss her but then something popped in his head.
"Fred Weasley? Why Fred Weasley?" he asked disturbed. Alice shrugged, "He was my boyfriend at the time. I guess I thought I'd always be with him. He always made me feel better, always made me laugh when I was feeling down. We kept it a secret, didn't want anybody to find out that we were dating. He would visit during the summer and we would hang out."
Draco's lip curled, "Ugh, that's disgusting." Alice pinched his side, and frowned. She still liked Fred as a friend, he was so nice and she planned on visiting him when they went to Hogsmead next week. She was still a little peeved that Draco beat Ron up, since after all it was Fred's younger brother. "I'm going to visit him; he owns a shop with his brother," Alice said reading her essay over again.
Jealously boiled in Draco's system, he finally spoke up with full blast of anger, "Don't." Alice looked over at him with curiosity, "Why shouldn't I?" Draco turned red and started stuttering, "How do you know if he has a girlfriend?" He tried making something up. Alice nodded and rolled up her essay she sighed knowing the true reason Draco didn't want her to go, "I'm positive he does have a girlfriend, were only friends Draco."
This didn't help Draco and his jealously, Alice sighed. She snuggled up to Draco and he wrapped his arms around her, "Besides Draco, we're only friends. You shouldn't care too much." Draco stared into the fire, 'FRIENDS? Only friends? Hell, do friends kiss? I'm sorry but I've never heard of "only friends" kissing each other. Does she just think I want to be friends? I beat up Weasel and Scarhead. Then I beat the shit out of Nott FOR HER…well the start of the Nott fight was for her… the rest was just anger, is that "only friends." I'd do anything for her and were "only friends." I'm going to go INSANE!'
"I'm going to bed," Draco stated dryly. He got up leaving Alice and slammed his door, Alice looked to the portraits and some of the girls shook their animated heads. "You shouldn't have done that," Artemis Herent lectured, "He obviously doesn't want to stick to friendship."
Alice sighed and knocked on Draco's door, "Did I upset you?" she asked as Draco opened the door and sighed. It was so late, and he didn't want to feel like talking. He could only think of one that would explain everything to her. He cupped her chin in his hand and kissed her deeply his hands went to her back he pulled her closer to him. Alice let in but still was surprised beyond anything; she was just saying that they were just friends.
Alice stepped backward trying to get away from Draco and looked up at the tall blonde. She put her arms around his neck and pulled in for another kiss, she heard a soft cough; the two stopped and turned around to see Professor Dumbledore standing there with Professor McGonagall, and Professor Snape. Alice turned beat red and went into her room, "Sorry about that, any reason for you appearance Professors?" he said his face a red with embarrassment.
"Don't do that ever again Draco Malfoy, now is not the time to get her tangled up in things," Severus Snape hissed and lectured quietly Draco new that wasn't the reason why all three of them where in his dorm. Draco looked down at the floor, "I understand Professor," he mumbled.
Draco's eyes wandered to the window, it was raining. The rain tickled the window and made a soft calming noise that could lure a man to sleep. He looked into the eyes of each of his Professors and noticed something was terribly wrong, he read it in there eyes. The atmosphere of the room suddenly got intoxicating and Professor McGonagall was trying to asphyxiate back sobs. "Draco, the ministry is here, there taking you and Blaise to Azkaban until they can figure out what to do with you. We can't do anything else to protect you," Dumbledore said and hugged the boy.
Draco's heart sunk, his soul was no longer there. "I'll…go…wake…Blaise," was all Draco could say and went into Blaise's room. "Wake up, dress warmly," he said and shook Blaise violently. Draco went back into the room and sat on the couch and put his head in his hands and just shook his head. "You'll get a trial, were going to get you out, don't worry," Severus soothed putting his arm around Draco.
"My boys!" Professor McGonagall sobbed and rushed over to hug Blaise. "How long?" a voice behind them asked. Alice was pale as a ghost, "How long should they wait till they receive a trial?" Dumbledore shook his head and touched Draco's head. "Come on boys, we shouldn't keep them too long. Bring nothing, give me your wands." Dumbledore somberly whispered getting the boys wands.
Alice followed and Severus stopped her, "No, stay behind Alice."
