I won nothing! Enjoy!
"Hello Lucas," a girl with brown hair said smiling happily.
"Where am I?" I asked staring at her sleepily, "And how do you know my name?"
"You're at Number 12, Grimmauld Place," a man said from behind the girl, "My house."
"And we know your name because we know Draco," the girl said calmly.
"Draco," I said sitting up quickly only to scream in pain.
"Don't move quickly," the girl said pushing me down gently, "You're not healed all the way and you might reopen some wounds if you're not careful."
"Okay," I said nodding my head, "What are your names?"
"I'm Hermione Granger," the girl said before motioning to the man behind her, "And this is Sirius Black."
"I've heard stories about you two," I said softly, "Such a smart girl and a such a brave man."
"Draco talked about us?" Sirius asked confused.
"Yes," I said calmly, "He didn't know much about either of you since you've never talked before, but he did tell me about you."
"Awesome," Hermione said grinning, "Now, let's just do a little once over to make sure we've done all we can."
"Then you'll get Draco," I said firmly.
"You should really rest," Sirius started to say.
"Get me Draco or I'll get him myself," I said seriously.
"Okay," he said holding his hands up, "I'll go get him right now."
"Good," I said smirking.
"Sort of controlling there," Hermione said shaking her head.
"Sorry," I said blushing, "It's just that…I need to know that Draco is alright."
"That's what he said," she said rolling her eyes, "You two seem like you are very much in love."
"Yeah," I said biting my lip, "I know it sounds stupid, but I've loved him since I saw him."
"You don't have to explain it to me," she said smiling, "I know what it's like. I love this man, but we're not together."
"Why not?" I asked confused.
"Because he's a stubborn prat," she said laughing.
"The curse of all men," I said happily, "Sorry that we're such idiots sometimes."
"It's alright," she said sighing, "Although a good shift kick to the head…"
"Won't do any good," Draco said from the door way, "We're too stubborn either way."
"Draco," I said the air leaving my body.
"Hello," he said smiling shyly.
"I'll just leave," Hermione said standing up and leaving the room, "Call me if you need anything."
"Thank you," I said smiling.
Draco and I stared at each other for awhile before Draco walked over to the bed and sat down gently. I calmly gripped his hand in mine and smiled slowly. Draco simply shook his head and looked away.
"Look at you Lucas," Draco said sadly, "You're hair is plain, your skin looks pale and thin, you're so skinny, and you're weak. If I didn't bring you into this then you'd still be alive. I'm so sorry."
"Draco," I said holding his hand tightly, "You didn't force me to do anything. I wanted to come. I wanted to be with you. I don't care what happened to me as long as I'm with you. Draco I love you so much. I'd go through years of what went on down there as along as it means being with you in the end."
"Tell me," he said softly.
"Tell you what?" I asked confused.
"What they did to you," he said looking into my eyes.
"You don't want to know," I said shaking my head.
"But I need to," he said forcing me to stare into his eyes.
"It was horrible," I said watching the pain fill his eyes, "Everyday that man…that snake. He would come down everyday and watch. He watched as they would strip me. They would beat me. Send these horrible spells at me. He kept telling me that as soon as I would scream he would stop.
I glared at him and told him to go screw himself. He just laughed. They kept beating me. Then this man. This horrible man he came in. He looked like he was a beast. I was scared and they knew it. He said I just had to scream and the man would leave. I said that I'd rather die. The man kept hitting me with his fists then one night…"
I stopped my story and wondered if I should go on. What that man did to me…It was something that was looked down on in the Wizardry world. Draco had already lost so much and I didn't want him to lose more.
"What happened?" Draco asked slowly.
"He changed," I said in a whisper.
"No," he said his eyes wide, "Did you hear his name?"
"Yes," I said tears filling my eyes.
"What was it?" he said seriously.
"No," I said pulling my hand away, "I don't want to talk about this."
"Lucas," he said softly.
"No," I said angrily.
"It's important," he said firmly, "I needed to know what this man did to you. I need to know his name."
"Greyback," I said as softly as I could.
"No," he said with a gasp.
"Please don't hate me," I said gripping his arm.
"I could never hate you," he said running a hand through my hair.
"You won't leave me?" I asked hopefully.
"Of course not," he said confused, "Why would I leave you?"
"Because of what I am," I said looking away.
"Did he…?" he asked wide eyed.
"Yes," I said a sob falling from my lips.
"I'm not leaving," he said hugging me, "I don't care that Greyback bit you. I'll stay with you no matter what."
