Dark Secrets

By- Jaiden Chapter Nine

Jaiden opened her mouth to scream, but a hand flew to her mouth, her hands came up to get away from him, but he caught them and placed them under his knees next to her sides.

She could hardly move under his weight. Jaiden whimpered as she saw his face her closer to hers. She could feel his breath on her neck, as his lips brushed against her ear.

" My preciousss, " He told her in a sickening whisper.

" Mmm, " She whimpered again as she saw him lean up.

" So pretty, " Ron said as he caressed her cheek down to her collarbone.

He then reached into his pocket and pulled out a roll of duck tape, and with one hand Ron tore a piece off with his teeth, and put it in place of his hand on her mouth.

" Now if you cooperate this will be much easier on both of us, " Ron told her grinning.

Jaiden shook her head frantically, he just laughed at her, which by doing this gave her time to yank her arms free, and they flew to her neck.

" So this will be the hard way huh, " Ron said catching her wrists and flipped her on her stomach, reaching for the Duck Tape beside him, he tapped her wrists together, behind her back. " Then so be it, "

" Ow! " She cried out through the tape.

" Eh, eh, " He cackled.

She rubbed her face hard against her bed to get the tape off, but it wasn't working. Jaiden felt his hands move along her back, and grip her shirt; the next thing she heard was a loud ripping noise as he ripped her shirt.

" Mmm! " She all but screamed, struggles against him.

" Be still, " Ron snarled, placing a hand on the back of her neck, pushing her into the mattress.

" Mm hmm! " Jaiden muffled out, kicking her legs.

" Don't make me hurt you, " Ron said as he turned a little bit grabbing her feet and tapped them up as well.

By now Jaiden was in tears. The tape on her mouth was making it hard to breath. The tape on her wrists were chaffing horribly.

" You know on second thought I want to hear you plead for more, but if you scream, you won't be able to talk anymore, " He said bragging the back of her head by the hair and lifted her head and yanked off the tape.

" Ah! You bastard you horrible F-cking bastard, " She told him viscously.

Ron just laughed at her, and placed kisses on her back, biting every so often making her wince.

" Get off of ME! " She yelled, " NOW! "

" No can do, I'm having way too much fun, " Ron told maliciously, and grabbed her wounded side hard and squoze.

" AH! " She shrieked out in pain.

Out in the common room Draco's door opened, then the sound of him running across the room and stopping at her door.

" Jade are you alright? " He yelled pounding on her door.

" No I'm not, HEL—! " She yelled back but it ended in a cry as Ron grabbed her hair and pulled her head back and slapped the piece of tape back on her mouth.

The next thing she knew, the door was blasted open, and Draco entered the room. With a loud crack the weight that was holding her down from Ron's body was lifted as he disapperated.

" Jade what's going on? " He asked quickly walking over to her bed, "…Jade answer me! "

She growled under her breath and began to kick the bed to get his attention.

" What are you trying to d— " Draco started to say as he turned the light on then froze at the scene before him, " Who done this to you? "

He stepped forward and removed the tape from her mouth again, ' How could anyone torment her like this?' He asked himself as he bent over and pulled the tape off of her wrists and ankles. As he helped her up, he opened his mouth once again ask who had done this to her.

" Draco don't even start, I cannot and will not tell you, " Jaiden told him with a deep sigh.

" Jaiden, honey please tell me, if you don't and he does it again, he may kill you, I might not be able to help you next time, "

Standing up slowly, she mulled over what he had just said. She looked back at him with sadness, tears starting to leak from her eyes.

" I j-just can't, he's already done so much, that I can't break free, " She told him sobbing.

Draco walked up to her and placed his hands on her shoulders, holding her at arms length.

" Shh, it's ok, I'm here now, " He gathered her in his arms.

At this point Jaiden completely broke down. Sobbing like crazy her entire body shook. Draco just held her gently rubbing her back, after a while she quieted down, and pulled out of his arms, looking up into his grayish eyes.

" Are you ok now? " He asked quietly.

" I-I think so, " She replied.

" Alright, I'll let you change your shirt, and I will be in the common room, " Draco said.

Jaiden nodded in response and watched as he left the room. As soon as he shut the door she went over to her wardrobe and changed into her uniform, then she too went out into the common room.

Closing her door, she continues over to the couch where Draco was sitting, and sat down beside him. He in turn put his arm around her shoulders.

" Are you sure you're ok not? " He asked her softly.

" Yeah I'm sure, " She told him in reply.

With his other and Draco picked up on of her wrists and examined it closely, seeing the bruises, he shook his head.

" What is it? " She asked curiously.

" Nothing, " He replied.

" My ass nothing, tell me, " Jaiden told him sharply.

" Why? " He said looking over at her, " you won't tell me what's going on, "

" That's because I can't, " Jaiden said.

" Yes, you can, "

" No I can't! " She cried standing up.

" Why not? "

" I already told you why not, "

" Then tell me again! " Draco said raising his voice.

" NO! " She said as she headed for the door.

Just as she was to the entrance door, the fire flared up and McGonagall's voice filled the room.

" Mr. Malfoy, Miss. Spencer? " McGonagall's head in the fire called out.

" Professor, " Draco greeting.

" Where's Miss. Spencer? " McGonagall asked.

" Right here professor, " Jaiden said in reply returning to her seat on the couch.

" Ah, good your both here, " McGonagall said, " I have some unfortunate new to tell the both of you since you are the Heads of the School, "

" What's that Professor? " They asked together.

" I'm afraid a student was found brutally beaten a few hours ago, " She told them sullenly.

" On my god, are they ok? Who is it? "

" He's in critical but stable condition, is in a coma with a ventilator breathing for him, and a concussion, Madam Pomfrey is with him right now, " She explained to them.

" But who is it? " Draco asked.

" McGonagall hesitated for a moment before she answered his question, looking at them she responded…

" Harry Potter, "

" Oh no… Oh god no… " Jaiden choked out.

" I'm afraid so, "

" Do you know who done it? " Draco asked.

" I wish I did, but we don't, " She answered with a sigh, " And since Harry is in a coma and we have no idea when he'll regain consciousness, "

" This is horrible, " Jaiden, cried out, " I hope he'll be alright, "

" We hope so too, for his sake and the sake of the wizarding world, " McGonagall said quietly.

" Can we go see him? " Jaiden asked.

" Yes I don't see why not, being heads and all, " Was the solemn reply.

Jaiden nodded and hurried out of the common room, with Draco close behind her heels, leaving McGonagall in the fire.

" God, I hope he's alright, " She muttered frantically.

" Don't worry, he'll be fine, " Draco soothed.

" I hope so, I truly hope so, " She said, then broke into a run not stopping until she reached the Hospital Wing.

" Whoa, slow down there turbo, "

" I can't not until I see him, " She said as she entered the hospital wing.

" What are you two doing in here its way past curfew, " A harsh tone came from out of the shadows.

" Oh! " She shrieked jumping a mile, " M-madam Pomfrey I didn't realize you were still up, "

" Well of course I'm still up, I have a very sick patient, " She explained huffily.

" Yeah we know that's why we are up here, "

" And how did you know? Who told you? "

" McGonagall told us a few minutes ago… Please may we see Harry, "

" Well I suppose so since you two are the heads… This way, " She told them gesturing them to follow her.

They followed her quickly and quietly, making their way around the curtain, they saw on the hospital bed the most terrifying sight ever.

" Oh my god, " She cried out as she saw him lying there in the white linen sheets, looking as though he was… as though he was dead.

" Harry… wake up, " Jaiden said shaking him slightly.

" Jade he can't hear you, " Draco said pulling her away from him.

" Don't! Yes he can! Let go! " She cried struggling to get out of his grasp.

" There's nothing you can do, "

Jaiden couldn't bear it any longer. Her knees buckled, Draco caught her before she hit the ground. His eyes gazed at the broken boy on the bed. Harry's entire face was bruised and swollen. His left arm was in a cast and so was his right leg, a magical ventilator kept him breathing.

" How could this happen? " She asked quietly.

" I don't know Jade, I just don't know, " He told her helping her to her feet, " Come on we have classes, "

Jaiden let herself get lead out of there, and back to the common room: Where she collected her bag by the table and went off to her first class.

By the time digger came round the news about Harry fighting for his lift in the hospital wing has spread like wild fire. The other houses were giving console too Ginny and Ron, wishing them the best.

Jaiden on the other hand knew who had done it and her hatred for him amounted to even more. Glaring at him, she turned and stomped out of the Great Hall and up to the Heads Dorm.

" Where do you think you are going? "A sharp voice came from behind her.

" To get away from you, " She told him.

" You forget you can't get away from me, "

" Oh I can, " She rounded on him, " What's wrong with you? How could you do that? He was you best friend, "

" Key word there 'was', " Ron explained, " You see ever since I started working for the Dark Lord, Potter became my enemy and he got to close to the truth, "

" I HATE YOU! " She screeched at him, " I HATE YOU! "

He slapped her, " Shut up witch, or I'll do the same to you as I don't to Potter, "

" I hate you, " was all she could say through clenched teeth.

Turning she ran back to the dorm, all the while thoughts of hates, pain flew through her mind. Sinking down between the couch and table, she came to a decision and pulled ink, a quill, and a piece of parchment. Her body wracked in grief and deception. Her vision blurred with teaches, she choked out a sob at what she was about to do. With a shaking hand, she dipped her quill into the ink and with a deep breath she began to write…

Dear Draco,

I am sorry to you all, for I cannot go on living like this. My life has become far to complicated to exist on this earth any longer.. I thought I had a friend that I could trust, but he betrayed me, abused me, and I cannot and will not forgive him for what he's don't to me and to others. This is my final good-bye. Once again I am truly sorry and please remember I love you all so very much, please do you forget me, and let my memory live on forever more…

All my Love… Jaiden Spencer
