Chapter 9:
"Now that everyone is here I must first ask, son how goes teaching at Hogwarts?"
"Great father."
"Have you gotten in contact with Potter?"
"Yes. I talked to him before I came." Prof. Skirrder looked down to the ground. It took him quite a bit of will not to say 'the poor babe.'
"And what have you found out?"
"The boy holds a lot of secrets father. I just now got through to him. But only slightly."
"And what did he tell you?"
"Well he informed me that over the summer his Uncle got laid off of work and started beating him. He also informed me that he's gay. That's pretty much it. He is very hesitant to open up though."
"I see. Well keep trying. Maybe we can still persuade him to join us. That fool Dumbledore has brain washed him as well as Draco I believe?"
"Yes. Draco will be my rooms for the next few days. After that he will moved to Gryffindor tower. Mainly because it is unsafe for him in the Slytherin rooms. What Dumbledore told me was that all his friends except for Blaise beat him up and turned on him."
"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh" Wormtail screamed out in pain as the Crucio curse was cast upon him.
"Damn it. If only they were here. Oh how-"
"Father Calm down. He's fine. Harry helped him out. Now Harry is one of Draco's only friends other than Blaise."
"Good. I can't believe that they harmed my-"
"Damn it. Everyone dismissed. I am to infuriated at the moment. I shall call you all tomorrow."
"Wait Father. May we have a few days? That way I can use all the time I have with Draco usefully."
"Of course. You were always very bright Kyle. Now off with everyone."
Severus and Prof. Skirrder silently walked back up to Hogwarts.
"So how are you going to convince the both of them?"
"Well first I must figure out which spell Dumbledore used to brain wash Draco. Harry is a different problem. He didn't need a curse put on him in order for him to be brain washed. The poor babe. You should have seen him Sev. The poor child was rocking back and forth. Plus I think he might be pregnant."
"What? How?"
"I'm unsure. But a few days ago I accidentally scared him and he ran from my office."
"What did you do?"
"Nothing." Prof. Skirrder said in an offensive tone.
"I started to shake him because he hadn't responded when I spook to him. He scared me Sev. That's why I think the rape had occurred here at Hogwarts."
The two walked together in silence. They were nearing the castle and the didn't need anyone to over hear them.
The two of them stood in the Grand Hall.
"Well I'll see you later Sweetie. Draco best be in in my rooms or he's in big trouble. I'm too tired to chase him. Can you go inform Dumbledore please?"
Severus gave him a slight groan and headed towards the Headmasters office.
"Draco?" Prof. Skirrder asked as he looked into the boys room.
"Yes Professor?"
"You should get to bed soon. Okay?"
"Sure Professor."
"Thank you. So how are you doing?"
"Good I guess."
"Let me see your face." Said Professor Skirrder as he sat down on the bed that Draco sat on. He took Draco's face in his hands and examined it.
"How do your ribs feel?"
"Good. I saw Madame Pomfrey about them. I only had two broken. She gave me some Skelegrow."
"That's good." Said the professor as he stood. " Now get to bed soon okay sweetie. If you need anything come get me. Even if I'm sleeping okay?"
"Yeah. Uh-um Professor um did you see- uh never mind."
"Are you asking about your father?"
"Yeah is he-"
"He's perfectly fine. A little thin and dark in the eyes but other than that he's fine."
"Thank you Professor."
"No problem. Good Night."
"G'night."
Draco waited until he heard prof. Skirrders bedroom door closed before he reached behind his pillow. Out he took a sheathed dagger. He removed the sheath and put the dagger in between his nails. He lighly pushed and watched as the blood fell from his fingers. He grabbed a rag from his bed stand drawer and held it to his hand. As blood fell from his hand the tears fell from his face.
He hated doing this. But it was the only way the get rid of the pain. He pulled the rag back and cut another finger. He knew this wasn't as bad as it could be. He could slit his wrist instead. But he didn't want t die. Plus that was more unnoticeable.
Draco stood with the rag still against his cut hand. He walked over to the candles the wall. With his good hand he extinguished the lights. He didn't need Professor Skirrder to walk in with him. NO one knew that he slit his fingers. Not even Blaise.
He really wanted to stop. But ever since he had come to Hogwarts he had, had the urge to cut himself. And he didn't know why.
Draco sat there on his bed holding the rag on his right hand for 15 more minutes. When he stopped bleeding he threw the rag in a basket of dirty clothes. He lay down in his new bed and pulled the sheets up to his shoulder. He wrapped his arms around one of his pillows. He held on tight as he tried to stop the tears from falling. For at the moment he felt as if he were completely alone in the world. But he also felt as if there was someone out there. Someone who was meant to be with him. His other half. And that was when Draco realized what this earning, this desire was. The lonely veela realized that it was the longing for his mate. The person who would complete him.
Harry suddenly sat up. He had been sleeping peacefully for once when he suddenly sat up wide awake. He felt this tug. As if he had lost something. Something that he needed very badly. But what he noticed the tingling feeling in his right hand. He didn't know why it would feel like that. And what was odd was that it was under the top of his nails. Unsure of what to do he brought the fingers to his mouth. He laid down and fell asleep.
Draco pulled his sore hand from under the pillow. For some reason the pain had dimmed. Draco smiled and fell peacefully onto his pillow with a smile.
Well there it is. That should answer some questions and give you more to replace them. Just to let you know I'm as shocked as you. I don't plan this out. It just flows as I write it.
