In the hospital wing Amanda let Madam Pomfrey fix a tiny scull fracture, a few broken ribs, a broken nose, a broken jaw and a few broken teeth be healed.

"Okay now it's time to fix that busted lip." She drew out her wand but Amanda pushed it away.

"I don't want you touching my lip," she paused as Madam Pomfrey looked at her curiously.

"I would advise against it, but if you insist,"

"Which I do."

"Very well then I guess you want me to leave your black eye alone as well?"

Amanda nodded.

As Madam Pomfrey handed her another glass of strengthening potion she muttered, "not that your black eye is black it's more purple and blue!"

Amanda smiled to herself as she drank the disgusting strengthening potion; her plan was going according to plan. All she needed to do is get closer to Harry for information.

All the heads of houses told their pupils to go to the Great Hall for breakfast at nine.

Everybody was talking in the Great Hall the next about the beating of a girl in the Gryffindor common room. The news soon made it across to the Slytherin's table where almost everybody sniggered with a smirk on their face including Malfoy who secretly hoped it was Hermione 'mudblood' Granger. He was very disappointed when he saw her enter the Great Hall alone, but his disappointment quickly turned into delight when she got dirty looks from nearly all the Gryffindor's, not including Potter and the Weasley's who were simply ignoring her. Hermione ended up sitting at the very end of the table all by herself.

Dumbledore stood up and the Great Hall instantly became silent.

"Before we start breakfast I have an announcement." Everybody was listening attentively in hope of hearing more about the beating.

"Last night Amanda Torque was severely hurt after being brutally attacked by another student." All the Gryffindor's turned to look at Hermione was nearly crying. Malfoy was so stunned by this news, that he didn't even hear all the other Slytherins sniggering about Hermione being possible expelled.

"Miss Torque has gone through a lot lately and does not deserve this kind of treatment, this is a school and violence will not be tolerated." Dumbledore ended his little speech with a little bit of a harsh tone.

Dumbledore clapped his hands once making food magically appear and everybody slowly started eating. All the Slytherins were still laughing and making jokes. The Slytherin Quidditch captain Flint asked Malfoy curiously, "shouldn't you be smiling, that Torque chick was the one who hexed you on the train, right?"

"Yeah that was her, but I don't feel to well, I'm going to go have a lie down," Malfoy lied as he got up and left.

Everybody looked up as owls began to drop packages and letters all around. Hermione got a letter telling her that she had to go to Dumbledore's office straight after breakfast, as did Harry. At the end of the quick note it read 'also did you know I'm on the back of chocolate frog cards.'

Draco sent Amanda a message via his bracelet telling her to make sure no one will see him come in. As soon as Amanda received the message she swiftly stunned Madam Pomfrey and this Hufflepuff first year, who had broken her leg when trying out an older students broom. Amanda's wand was locked safely in the middle draw of her bedside table. Though this was no inconvenience as she simply used her head, 'Stupefy.' Both of the others in the room froze just as Amanda had expected. She sent her boyfriend a quick message telling him the coast is clear.

Within thirty seconds Draco was standing next to her bed asking to many questions to remember let alone answer. "Are you okay? Why didn't you send me a message? Why didn't you fight back? When are you getting out? Did Potter try and help you? Is this part of your plan? 'Cause if it is I don't like your plan much. Why did she beat you up?"

Amanda feeling fine but a little weak, she tried to sit up but was a bit wobble. Draco quickly put a hand on her back and his other on her flat stomach, while he sat next to her on the white linen.

"Thanks."

"You really should lie down." Draco suggested.

"I'll be fine."

"When are you getting out?"

"I'm not sure tomorrow hopefully."

"Are you sure your okay? I know for a fact Hermione can hit pretty hard."

"Damn Draco, you worry to much!"

"I know, but I don't want anything to happen to you," he kissed her lightly on the lips then pulled his head away. Amanda gently but firmly grabbed the back of neck and pulled him in for another kiss. Which he got totally into for a few seconds before he pulled away so quickly that he forgot to support her, causing Amanda to lose her balance and fall on her back.

"What is your problem Malfoy?" Amanda asked while sitting up a little, supported by her elbows, which propped her up.

"My problem! You're the one in a hospital wing trying to make out with me, pretty much straight after being attacked, how low do you think I am."

"I don't think your low Draco, but I honestly feel fine."

"Good because I care a lot more about your safety then sex."

"I know you do," Amanda told him as she tried to shuffle around to put her head on the pillow. Draco went to help her but she held up a hand, signalling for him to stop.

"I can do it on my own."

"It's okay to let people help you sometimes and let them know how you feel."

Amanda looked at him darkly, "this isn't about my injury any more is it?"

"Mandy you have to talk about it, it's been eight weeks."

"No I don't."

"Why?"

"Because there is nothing to say."

"Mandy they're your parents and they're gone you have to talk about it, there was a Dark Mark over your house. Stop pretending you don't care!" Draco pleaded.

"How dare you say I don't care? I do care that I came home from a trip with friends to find my parents dead on the couch and I don't have to talk about it, not to you, not to anyone," she shouted. Tears were starting to form in her eyes and slowly fall down her cheek.

"Ohh Mandy I'm sorry, don't cry, I didn't mean for you to be upset."

"How can you mention Voldemort taking my parents lives and me not caring in the same sentence and not expect me to be upset." Amanda was crying harder then she was before, she was trying not to think about her parents.

Draco sat on her bed and went to give her a hug but she snapped at him.

"Don't touch me, I want to be alone."

"You're lying."

"No I'm not!"

"I've been practising nearly every day for the last month, so I can tell you're lying to me which I don't appreciate."

"Sorry," Amanda whispered through sobs.

"That's okay you're upset."

"Remind me when next time I lie not to be emotional." Amanda tried to laugh but couldn't manage it.

Amanda lifted her arms a few inches as if asking for a hug. Malfoy lied next to her and put his arm around her shoulder, while she rested her head on his chest. She could fell his heartbeat against her head.

"I love you, Mandy," Draco whispered.

More tears silently fell down her delicate cheek, on to her split lip, "I love you too."

A few minutes later Amanda told him, "you had better go back to the common room or everybody will be wondering where you are."

Malfoy nodded in agreement but did not wish to leave her here all by herself. He stood up being really careful not to hurt her or to make her uncomfortable.

"Make sure you send me lots of messages," Draco requested.

"I will there is not a lot else for me to do around here."

"Okay, hopefully I'll see you first thing tomorrow for Care of Magical Creatures, which I can't believe I'm taking, my dad is not going to be happy."

"Maybe not, but I need to practice my animal telepathy, I'll see you tomorrow."

Draco reluctantly left and Amanda thought "Ennervate." She knew it had worked when Madam Pomfrey came out of her office rubbing her head in confusion.

"Hey Madam Pomfrey, when do I get to leave here?"

"If you keep drinking your Strengthening Potion, it is possible you could be out of here as soon as early afternoon today."

"As long as I don't miss any of my classes tomorrow."

"I'm pretty sure you won't, now get some rest."

Amanda felt her bangle heating up as she replied, "Thank you I will."

She already had a message from Draco, 'miss you already.' Amanda smiled to herself; it is a great feeling knowing someone out there loves you.

She had always known the Malfoy's as they were her godparents and for the last two months the Malfoys have been her legal guardians. She had pretty much grown up with Draco and they have been friends ever since they could walk. Their relationship became 'more then friends' a few months after Amanda turned fifteen and remained nearly entirely nonsexual for about a week. Although she didn't sleep with him for another month and a half. They decided to keep their relationship a secret and so far it had worked, Amanda is now sixteen and nine months and Draco recently turned seventeen.

For the last eight weeks she had tried to figure out a plan, a plan so she didn't have to live with Lucius, one of Voldemort's most faithful supporters. She still has another three months before she finally comes out of the 'Under Age Witch category,' until then Lucius can keep her at his house and let Voldemort come and try recruit her. So when she refuses he will kill her, just as he did to her parents when they wouldn't give her to him.
