Chapter three – betrayal
Draco's dreams tormented him. Teased him with memories from the past. Being alone and Lucius... Then there was always green eyes watching him. The eyes showed every emotion. He cold read them all. Desire, lust, unhappy, worried and love. Once Draco woke up he was intrigued. I know those eyes but who...? He was desperate to know but when he asked madam Pomfrey who had brought him she told him it didn't matter and that he should rest.
An hour of thoughts went through his mind when Professor Dumbledore and Professor Snape walked into the room. His godfather Severus carrying a tray of food. Draco didn't realise that he was in fact very hungry until he smelt the food. Severus placed the tray on Draco's lap and Draco dug in. Draco downed his pumpkin juice when a calming feeling crept over him.
"What happened over the summer Draco?" Dumbledore asked softly. Draco felt himself explain about his father finding out about him self harming and how he'd started to rape him and then decided he wasn't good enough to return to Hogwarts. I should've known they'd pull this trick. The truth serum wasn't as powerful as some but Draco was too weak to fight the truth spilling from his lips. Tears of hurt spilt down his face. They hadn't even tried asking him, they'd assumed he wouldn't tell them. How could he trust anyone when all they did was cause him hurt? Draco looked up to his godfather. Hurt shined in his eyes. Severus couldn't hold the look. He looked away. They all hate me. Look at Sev. He's turned away from you. He can't stand the fact I'm his godson! Draco watched the men leave.
"Whoever saved me from death must care..." He whispered to himself quietly. "But who was it?" He knew the green hues he had seen were of the one who had saved him but he couldn't think who those eyes belonged to. They are so beautiful... Closing his eyes he pictured those eyes that enchanted him.
The boy whose eyes they belonged to was sitting in the great hall picking at his food not really caring for himself but for Draco. He couldn't stay away from the boy much longer. He was desperate to see him.
"I hear his dad raped him..." "You know he has cuts over his arms you see them in potions." "I bet he's after attention." Harry heard the whispers. About Draco of course. Harry tried to shut them out but he could hear them take over his mind. His mind kept on listening out for Draco. Is he ok? Did I find him quick enough? Harry had figured out why he'd stared at the boy last year. Why he wanted to touch and kiss him and to take away his pain. He loved him. It was strange how could anyone love someone without really knowing them? The thing was Harry knew about Draco. More than he wanted too...
Draco sobbed. He had been betrayed by one of the only people he trusted. He knew now that he shouldn't have ever trusted anyone. If you did you were weak. But me hurting myself any stronger? He knew that he was weak.
Footsteps sounded over the infirmary floor. Draco looked up to see green eyes. Not the same green sparkling eyes of a boy but dull eyes of his friend Blase.
"Hello Draco..."
