A/N: Hello everyone! Being the nice-ahem-person that I am, I have decided to update this chapter today itself so that I don't keep you guys in suspense for too long! Mass updating sessions have started!
Disclaimer: It's only chapter 5 and I have run out of disclaimers. This is not good…this is BAD! Oh well, I'll crack my head!
CRACKING HEAD IN PROCESS…
FOUND!
Life is meaningless when you are me who owns none of the characters in the original book of Harry Potter.
Chapter 6
Draco stood stumped at this new revelation. He backed away slowly from Draco. His mom, Narcissa had been untrue to her husband! "You betrayed the trust my dad had in you! How could you?" he yelled before turning on his heel and running away. He did not know why he was running. All he knew was that he needed to put as much space between him and that foul beast. He crashed through puddles, splashing water all over.
Severus looked on aghast. He had meant to tell Draco the truth, but never in this manner. The boy had not even waited to hear the whole story. "Draco, come back! You have it all wrong! Narcissa is not my mistress!" he yelled.
Draco was not listening. He looked behind him to see Severus calling him, but he would not stop. He ran onward.
Severus cursed under his breath before pushing himself to run after Draco.
Draco saw Severus running after him and hastened to run faster. The steps were slippery and Draco skidded and fell forward on his face. Immediately, his left kneecap crashed to the ground and a sickening crunch filled the silent night sky. A bone-jouncing pain skipped through his leg. His lips seared where there was a tear separating the broken lip. Blood dripped to the ground and Draco winced in pain. He clutched his kneecap and turned behind to see Severus catching up with him.
He wanted to pick himself and run again, but his knee hurt and his whole body was aching from the day's ordeal. He could feel his resolve melting with the rainwater. He lay there, half groggy till Severus reached him.
Severus looked at the mangled heap at his foot. He felt tears pooling in his eyes. He blinked them back into the confines of his eyes. Severus dropped to his knees and cradled Draco in his arms. "Why Draco? Why?" he asked.
Draco looked up at him. Rainwater had specked Draco's face and it was impossible to tell is Draco had been crying, but Severus was sure there were some salty tears among the pure droplets. His heart lurched at the thought. Draco reached out to hold Severus's neck "Because you betrayed my trust, sir."
Severus shook his head. "You can call me father now, Draco. You don't know how long I have been waiting to tell you this. Trust me, Draco. I did not betray the trust your dad had in me. I never did." He whispered. "I've been waiting all my life to tell you this, but now is not the time. I will tend to you first. You are worn and tired. Meeting the Dark Lord and hearing my story can wait."
With that, Severus carried Draco and apparated father and son.
A/N: How is that? Severus did not betray Lucious's trust, but is Draco's father? Tell me what you think please! R&R!
