I do believe some... introduction is good now. HI! I'm VelvetRose529, call me Velvet if you wish. If you wanna use my real name it's on my profile XD So... I don't own anything except the plot, and I do enjoy emails from FanFiction. They make me happy. I got some feedback on my first chapter before posting it, but i'm going to post this without. (I'm gonna surprise him) I'm also using feedback I get on other stories. I will try to use less dialogue (As in I will try to add description after a speaker unless It's really unnecessary) and I will try to update regularly, but good chapters take time, my muses are unpredictable, so please don't hate if I don't update after a while. So... ONWARDS MY FRIENDS!

Draco's POV

"Loves me? Loves me? Are you insane? Of course he doesn't love me! He hates my guts, every fiber in my being! I'm nothing more than a human practice dummy for him, and you think he loves me?" I was absolutely in awe at what came out of her mouth. I wanted to hex her, where was my wand?

"Draco I-"

"No! I don't need to hear your sap! You're a nurse of course you have to say that!" C'mon, where's that wand? I don't care if they expel me!

A.N. He's going to PIGFARTS! jkjk

"Draco if you'll just-"

"What on earth could possess you in to thinking he loves me!" Was she stupid? Insane perhaps?

"Well for one... He's standing outside the door at this very moment." I was brought out of my rage hearing that. Was she serious?

"W-what?" I was gaping. He was- and I- and he- "What?" Crud crud crud. Bloody- Oh my god. He was going to kill me! I shook my head. "You, you're lying. He's not..."

"He is." That voice wasn't the nurse. Crap. "Draco, why?" Double crap. I was speechless. This man, who didn't even want to acknowledge me as his son, wanted to know why I did what I did?

It was an accident... sir." I was afraid to address him at all. His face almost looked caring, but that was an act, I knew it. I think he wanted me to play along. No, I knew he wanted me to play along. "I only... wanted some rest. I'm sorry" I spoke through gritted teeth. He nodded and turned to walk out. "Bastard," I mumbled to myself. He turned again, abruptly.

"What did you just call me?" He heard me. I didn't care, i'd lost the ability. He came over and slapped me across the face and walked out briskly. I looked at him, and right now, the most frightening thing of all was... I couldn't cry. Tears just wouldn't come. It shocked me. Not even dry sobs. I was emotionless, and it scared me.

September 1st

Draco's POV

I clutched my trunk as I prepared to cross the barrier to my salvation. With my mother and "father" behind me. I broke in to a run and burst through the wall, my owl hooting. I brought my things to the train, and they were loaded on. I walked over to where the slytherins sat and turned around, when I remembered I was named prefect.

"Draco!" I looked at my mother, so weak from helping me. I sighed guiltily, and forced a smile at my parents. It only lasted a few seconds, before my stone hard face kicked in. I was never really able to smile anymore. Today was a rare exception, because I had found something good in it.

"Yes mother?" She ran over to me and pulled me in to a bear hug.

"Don't worry about me, alright?" I was rather taken aback by the comment. She was almost fragile now, and she didn't want me to worry?"

"I-i'll try not to."

"Just focus on you're NEWT's please?" I had almost forgotten. Almost.

"Yes mother, I promise." I looked at my "father" For the last time for a while. He just glared at me and turned his head. He had responded similarly when I was named prefect. I sighed and walked to my cart.

Ron's POV

"Hey guys, get a load of Malfoy," I said to my friends, Harry and Hermione. We looked, and laughed. He was, for once, upset about something. Hermione was the only one that didn't laugh. She actually looked worried about the ferret. I sighed, what were we going to do with her?

"Guys, this is bad. Look!" She pointed to Malfoy's dad, who's head was turned away from him. Ha! Bad? Best day ever! I grinned madly, for once the ferret wasn't being pampered to death by his dad. "Is that... a glamour charm?" A glamour charm? Now that I looked, it did look like some kind of charm was cast on him. Whatever, I don't care.

"Guess the guy finally disowned him." I chuckled once more before getting on the train. "C'mon Hermione, we have to go to the prefect's cart." She looked at me and nodded, walking on to the train. We said good bye to Harry before going our separate ways.

We made our way to the prefects cart, and found Malfoy there. He was the only one too. Hermione spoke up, asking him if he was alright. Alright? We don't care! I din't speak aloud though, that would be... stupid.

"Oh stuff it Granger, i'm not going to talk to you." Hermione didn't even look phased by the response.

"Well you just did, and I'm talking to you. Can't stop me from doing that Malfoy." She spoke with a hint of anger, as if she was worried.

"Listen Granger, just because you're a mudblood, doesn't mean you're an idiot. Read. My. Lips. Stuff it."

"Malfoy you just... complimented her." That did it. He got up and barged out of the cart towards the restrooms. Probably to cry his eyes out, the git.

A.N. I'm better at Draco, not Ron, sorry but the POV was necessary to the story :/

Draco's POV

I barged out of that cart and in to the restroom. I sat on the toilet, I didn't need to use it, but it was the only place a guy could think around here. I sighed and gripped my wrists, digging my nails in to them. The slight pain helped but only for a fraction of a second. I sighed, and stood up. I smacked myself with the door by mistake so, clutching my face, I left the restroom thankful that no one was there. Not using the toilet meant I didn't need to wash my hands, but no one needed to know that.

I left the restroom and went back to the prefects cart, and sat down. I listened to what the head boy and girl were telling us about patrolling and left to go do just that. By the time the train stopped I had a good sized bruise forming on my cheek, and as soon as I was on the carriage, I cast a glamour charm on my face to cover it. The carriage ride was uneventful, seeing as Pansy was still upset with me after what happened at St. Mungo's. I stared blankly in to space until I heard Pansy speak my name.

"Draco? Draco? Draco!" I turned my head towards her. "Does this have anything to do wi-" I shot her a glare, telling her to shut up or i'd hex her in to next week. She looked at me, obviously concerned. "Draco, Just... tell me. Are you alright?" I looked at her. My stone-hard face of indifference refusing to budge. Not even a fake smile could form on my lips.

"I'm fine, alright?" I was a rather good liar, and Pansy knew not to push me too much right now. Blaise looked worried too, the only two people that didn't seem to notice were Crabbe and Goyle. They just looked out the window, looking for Hogwarts, and their first sign of food. I sighed at their stupidity, even I knew not to get my hopes up for another fifteen minutes, and these two imbeciles were already drooling.

"Wipe your faces would you?" Goyle, the least stupid of the two, looked at me and wiped his face with his robes. He nudged Crabbe, who then did the same, and looked at me. The rest of the ride was silent. I took the time to think. Could I really keep to my mother's promise? Could I keep myself from worrying about her? What was father doing to her right now? I doubted I could keep this promise, considering it hadn't even been 24 hours and I was already breaking it.

When the carriage came to a stop, I was the first one out. I stepped in to the moonlight, and sighed. I walked in, and took a seat, my chin resting on my hand. I looked up at the table and took things in. Snape seemed to be looking at me. I looked, only one new face this year. An old man that looked a little off sat next to Professor Snape. The two started chatting as I watched, and Snape turned his head. For a moment, I saw not my professor, but my father. I tried not to think of it and watched the stupid little first years file in.

"First years this way!" Mcgonagall was calling out to the little brats, some of whom I would have to lead down to the dorm, joy. After calling out the names we ate. I didn't eat much. Just some dinner, a little, and no dessert. Pansy just looked at me before returning to her pasty. After leading the twits down to the common room and telling them the location of the dorms, I headed straight to mine for some rest. Before my head hit the pillow, Blaise looked at me and sat on my bed

"Ever heard of personal space, Zabini?" He looked at me, worried. "What on earth? If you have something to say, say it now! I need rest."

"Man, what was Pansy talking about on the carriage? Most importantly what were you talking about?" I didn't want to tell him, but he was the only real friend I have here. No, I don't consider Crabbe and Goyle my friends really. "Dude, tell me!"

"You really don't want to know but... I kinda... I think the word muggles use is overdosed but I can't be sure."

"I've heard of that. Meds right?" I nodded. "Why?" I am so not telling him that.

"You do not want to know." Blaise nodded once, and left it at that.

"Night."

I should tell you... I wrote the end of this chapter while watching the beginning of Chamber of Secrets. XD EAT SLUGS! Also, every time I write about Lucius I think of the AVPS version. (Tyler makes a much better Lucius than a Cedric don't you agree?) So I realize this one was fast but i'm really in to it, and I worked hard so please review!

Hugs and such,
