The Power Of Love
Chapter Seven,
Harry had no idea what had compelled him to go here, he just had the sudden urge. He stood in the doorway and watched Draco playing with the young disabled children. He was plaiting a little girl's hair while a boy tied his shoelaces into strange knots. Another boy was trying to bite Draco's wrists while two girls were stood behind a chair playing with his hair.
"He's our best teacher," the headmaster said from behind Harry. Harry nodded absently. "He can handle the younger ones no matter what's wrong with him. The boy biting him has Downs Syndrome and most people try to avoid him when he's like this but Draco can stand the bites." Harry nodded again.
When Draco had finished plaiting the girls hair he stood, putting the girl with the other two and the three of them started to play hairdressers. Draco however was walking over to the corner of the room. A little boy was sat in the corner, curled up in a ball looking very lonely.
"He's new today. He's just been diagnosed with amblyopia and dyspnoea," the headmaster said as Draco knelt in front of the boy. He explained after Harry's questioning glance, "Dimness of vision and shortness of breath. His parents were wary to leave him this morning because the are so worried about him."
Draco had held his hand out to the little boy and was talking to him soothingly. The boy slowly started to Draco and Harry was surprised that in minutes the boy was happily being led over to the other children.
"Right everybody, this is Tony. Tony this is Patrick, Jonathan, Kerry, Billie-Anne and Jasmine," Draco said to the children.
"Hello," Tony mumbled.
"Hello," the other children bar Patrick answered. Patrick just walked up to him and bit him on the arm. Tony was about to start crying when Draco picked him up.
"That's how he say's hello and that he likes you, see," Draco said kindly as Patrick pulled down one of Draco's hands (the one not holding Tony up luckily) and bit it.
"Why?" Tony asked.
"Because he's special," Draco said sweetly, not even caring that Patrick carried on biting until blood ran. "Now we need to start some learning so will everyone grab a cushion and come and sit around me," Draco said. He put Tony down and picked up Patrick who bit his shoulder gently. "Now yesterday we got to what letter of the alphabet?"
"J." The girl called Billie-Anne answered happily. Harry leaned against the door and suddenly wished that he'd just allowed Draco to do this and not fought over it. Draco was wonderful with the children; he didn't seem to care about their disabilities.
"So how is it you know Draco Mr Potter?" the headmaster asked Harry.
"Old friends," Harry said sadly. The Headmaster nodded.
"Would you like to be introduced to the class?" the Headmaster asked.
"No, I'd better be going. I have some work to do," Harry said sadly, glancing back at Draco who was showing them how to write the letter K, well except for Patrick, before leaving the room. He walked to the ministry and up to the Auror's office and to his desk.
"Where've you been?" Tonks asked.
"I went to see and old friend," Harry sighed taking out the paperwork he still needed to finish about his last assignment. But he just couldn't seem to focus on it, his thought's kept straying to the almost angelic sight of Draco with those children. 'Why did I have to be such an ass? I should never have let him go.'
