Chapter 15
Disclaimer: Harry Potter etc still belongs to JK Rowling, plot still belongs to me.
Author's Note: This is going to be a little strange I think.
Here is what Harry read:
'Dear Harry,
I cannot believe how stupid and selfish I have been. You might say that I have proved myself to be truly my father's son.
'I realise that I have caused you pain. I must admit that this was what I intended to do. I was fully aware of my actions and am duly ashamed of what I have done to you. It was not until today that I fully realised, however, how little forgiveness I deserve for what I have done.
'When I saw your face as we were trying to catch the Snitch yesterday, I saw something I should have expected. You looked, Harry, as if you truly loathed me. This frightened me, but also it woke me as to how much I have hurt you.
'When I saw your face, it looked closed. It could not have been more different to how you looked when we were together, before last Saturday night. All week, our conversation has been playing on my mind, and every time, my impression of myself in this whole matter has become a little less favourable.
'I do not ask you to forgive me in the slightest. After all, after the past five years, I could not presume to expect trust from you, nor the kind of love I wished for. In the past week, I have set out to hurt you more purposely than I ever have before, and I know that I did so in the most immature and spiteful manner possible.
' I feel nothing for Pansy Parkinson, and this adds to the burden of shame I must carry. For the most base of reasons, I have hurt myself, Pansy and you. For this I am sorry. I ask you not to speak of this any more. When you read this, I will be gone. I ask you to return to how our mutual treatment of each other has always been.
'Again, I am sorry. Forever yours, Draco.'
The very second Harry finished reading, he threw the paper aside and raced out of the ward as fast as his feet would carry him.
Author's Note: I have nothing to say now, see you all soon.
