Here is the second chapter, enjoy
Chapter 1: Stunned Silence
Hallways to the Dungeons
A few moments after the two Slytherins had turned the corner the two Gryffindors stumbled out from behind the tapestry and silently started towards their class.
"What just happened," Harry whispers with a blank face.
"I don't know," Hermione replies just as monotone as Harry. Too stunned for any more words they walking to the class room and sit at their usual table, ignoring the fact that they were very early.
Potions Classroom
"Sit down." Professor Snape barks, as he sweeps into the room, "Today we will be brewing very complicated potion, that requires partners," he pauses as he here some cheers of happiness, "Since you are incapable of choosing a suitable partner yourself I have taken the time to choose them myself," the cheering stopped immediately and Hermione was sure to elbow Ron before he could utter a sound of protest. Lee gulped as she heard this and Draco sent her a look that said, 'This is all your fault.'
"Granger, Eryx," Lee could taste the satisfaction coming off of Severus in waves. Sending a glare in the direction of Draco who was snickering she picked up her things and went over to the table Hermione was at. Hermione scowled at her and she just looked away.
"Potter, Malfoy" Lee and Draco both turn to look at Severus in utter surprise and he just sneered, but anyone looking could see the humor shining in his eyes. Turning to look at Lee, Draco glared at her promising her that she would pay with his eyes, then gathered his things and sat at the table next to them with Harry.
"Morning Granger," Lee said trying at least to be civil to the love of her life. Lee had never insulted Hermione or any Gryffindor for that matter. Lee didn't insult people at all really, she teased a lot but never actually hurt someone on purpose. So needless to say she was surprised and hurt when Hermione didn't answer her and just got to work. Brushing it off they worked the rest of the class in silence and whenever their hands would brush and Hermione would draw back her hand in disgust, Lee's heart would break a little. Their potion was perfect and after class they left without a word to each other.
Draco and Harry on the other hand did not get along in silence at all, they crashed around the room all of the class period. Yelling and cursing each other getting detention after detention. harry didn't notice how Draco's comments weren't that biting and that his eyes had unshed tears. Harry didn't notice Draco's heart breaking at every mean comment he made, and he hardly notice at all that he was the one who started it all just to get the thoughts of the blond slytherin without his glamour out of his head.
Pier by the lake
"I hate life." 'splash'
"I hate life more." 'splash'
"Yeah right," Lee said standing up and throwing the last of her rocks into the lake. Draco followed her suit and stretched his arms.
'Yawn' "I'm heading back inside, are you coming?"
"Yeah, in a bit." Nodding Draco hugs his friend and heads inside. Sitting back down and making sure Draco is out of earshot she began her sad song.
Broken heart one more time
Pick yourself up why even cry?
Broken pieces in your hand
Wonder how you'll make it whole
Draco held himself as he walked inside trying to keep himself warm and keep the shill from his heart. Keeping up his facade had been taking it's toll. His two worlds were melding together, he was getting them confused and he knew...he just knew that one day he would end up like his father. Where the chill he put on in front of strangers stop going away when he was with his friends and family. Where the chill stayed forever. That thought alone brought the blond slytherin to tears so he ducked into the 3rd floor bathroom. He didn't notice the shadow follow him in.
You know, you pray this can't be the way
You cry, you say somethings gotta change
and mend this porcelain heart of mine, of mine
Lilith took off her shoes and socks and dipped her feet into the water. A sigh escaped her lips as the thoughts in her head churned and twisted. Why couldn't things go her way for once? Why couldn't a day go by without her heart being broken? She looked at her reflection in the lake and sighed. She felt concede thinking she was beautiful, but that's what she was told to believe. She was told to believe she was a beautiful woman who was powerful by birth. She wasn't though...she wasn't powerful and her beauty must not have been that great because she still didn't have the one she wanted. She still didn't have Hermione.
Hermione is everything she wanted in another person. She is strong and smart and cunning and sophisticated. She is beautiful too, and not in the way most see, she has a graceful beauty that shows it's face when you looked hard enough...deep enough. She was the girl Lilith wanted to go to sleep to and wake up to, and she wanted nothing to do with her. Unrequited love really is the hardest to bear.
Someone said a broken heart
Would sting at first then make you stronger
I wonder why this pain remains
Were hearts made whole just to break
Draco rubbed the back of his hand under his eyes trying in vain to hide the weakness inside himself. Reaching into his pocket Draco takes out his glasses and wand and cancels the glamours. Then he looks into the mirror and just stares.
Why couldn't he see the power and strength the other Slytherins saw in him? Where was it? Why couldn't he find that strength to go out there and get what he wants? What he wanted was Harry. More tears spilled down his face as he thought this. He wanted him so bad it hurt, but he couldn't have him, Harry didn't want him. Tearing his eyes away from the mirror he turns around and slides down the wall and brings his knees up to his chest and just hugs himself. Sobbing into his knees the pain he feels. The sobbing blocks out the sound the invisibility makes as Harry takes it off, but it doesn't block the sound of the angry, hissed out, "Malfoy,"
You know, you pray this can't be the way
You cry, you say somethings gotta change
and mend this porcelain heart of mine
Tears spilled down her cheeks and fell into the lake below rippling the image of herself but she hardly took notice. She was lost in her thoughts. She's sorting through all of her encounters with Hermione. She's crying even harder at the fact that through everything Hermione never even acknowledged her, never saw her or spoke to her. She never got to see her heartbreak. She will never see it breaking.
Creator only you take brokenness
And create it into beauty once again
Draco stood up quickly and rubbed his eyes dry. "What do you want H-Potter, I'm not in the mood to play right now," he put on a sneer but it held no spite.
"What are you planning, Malfoy?" Harry sounded frustrated and confused. His hair was messier than usual and there were more bags under his eyes than Draco's. He also had his wand out and pointed at Draco but the whole arm was shaking.
"What are you on about Potter?" Draco rubbed his eyes more trying to erase his embarrassed blush with his sleeves.
"I know you and your Father and your Lord are planning something." his voice was poisonous and quiet and deadly.
"I am not my Father and I do not support his Lord," Draco took a step forward at this but Harry had already flicked his wand and shouted,
"Sectumsempra!"
You know, you pray this can't be the way
You cry, you say somethings gotta change
Sighing and drying her eyes Lee gets up, puts on her shoes and heads inside. Life may suck now but it would suck worse if she caught a cold from being out there too long.
You know, you pray this can't be the way
A certain bushy haired girl watched the lone girl walk away from the lake with a concentrated look on her face. Things were changing in a strange way.
You cry, you say somethings gotta change
Harry was panicking, he had just hit Malfoy with a spell that he had never used before and it had cut him open. There was blood everywhere and he had no idea what to do. So he ran, he ran away and left Malfoy bleeding on the floor. He ran away and Draco watched him go with sad broken eyes.
And mend this porcelain heart, please mend this porcelain heart of mine
Harry kept running and staring at the blood on his hands, and he hardly felt it when he slammed into someones shoulder. He just kept running and the tears kept falling from his cheeks.
Of mine
As soon as she saw Harry running ad crying he knew something was wrong so she was even more weary when he didn't even see her or feel it when they knocked into each other. Taking out her wand she casts a tracking spell on Draco. She followed it to the 3rd floor bathroom where she stopped dead in her tracks before screaming,
Creator mend this heart
"Draco!!"
the song is Porcelain Heart by Barlow Girl
I know that this story is angsty now but it will get better I promise, there will be more song, but don't try to picture the character singing them try and picture it just in the back ground like in the movies.
