Hey everyone! So once again I'd like to thank you all for the reviews they were motivating and I'm glad to say that I will be writing this next chapter just for ya'll! So now I hoped you like chapter 18 because here comes Chapter 19 LOVE YA!!!!!!- DM16
Draco woke up the next morning with a terrible headache, his ribs throbbing with the opened bloody wound which was tied up with a ripped T-shirt wrapped tightly around him and his right arm that was healed up also. He sat up from the green couch holding his head in pain.
"Wait a minute I don't remember falling asleep on the couch last night." He thought
"Had a nice rest" Draco turned around to see Blaise sitting on one of the soft green chairs next to the big green couch Draco was sitting on. Draco looked at him surprised.
"Blaise, what are you doing here, how did you get in here?" He asked. Blaise looked at him silently for a moment then spoke.
"You missed four classes four hours ago, so I went to go get you to find out if you were okay, you know, to see if you were sick or something, I knocked on your door a couple of times but you didn't answer so I let myself in with a simple Alohomora spell and walked in to find you all covered up in dry blood" Blaise said with both hands resting under his chin. Draco fell silent.
"Want to explain to me what happened here?"
"I fell" Draco said solemnly as he lay back down on the couch and rolled over his back facing the now empty fireplace. Blaise sighed.
"Don't get smart with me Draco, you were covered in your own blood for crisake, I had to be the one to fix up your wound. Now I demand to know had happened to you"
"Since when did you decided to become my mother?" Draco drawled out.
"Since it became Snape's and my responsibility to protect you, you know that" Draco said nothing at this.
"Now tell me what happened to you…who did this to you?" Blaise said craning his neck to see Draco's face. Draco just lay their silently, he had nothing to say…he couldn't say anything the curse wouldn't let him. Blaise sighed again and got up from the couch.
"Fine, don't tell me anything, but just to let you know Snape is gonna want to know what happened to you so if you can't tell me anything see if you can try keeping your mouth shut when you come across him." Blaise said as he turned on his heel and walked out of the room. Draco sighed as a tear came down his cheek; he quickly wiped it away then got up from the couch and into the shower. Draco removed all his clothes then went in to the hot water. He sighed as the water hit his back. Everything that had happened last night came right back into play. He just couldn't understand why his father had to choose him….to choose Ginny. She was innocent, I mean, she didn't even know that she would be a protector to a Hybred and that she was the one to bear the child…their child; their child would be the one to stop Voldemort, their child would be the first born to posses hybred powers after their parent instantly… not because it was chosen but because their parent was a hybred too. Everything that Hermione had told him and Ginny was mixed up to believe that Draco would be the one to stop Voldemort but really it would be his child. And he would be the reason this whole prophecy had started. Draco leaned his hand up against the wall for support as he lowered his head to let the hot water fall on to his head. He would be the reason why Ginny would get hurt. Draco couldn't stop thinking about it every time he tried to keep his mind blank it's like a little voice inside his head would repeatedly keep saying Ginny's name to remind him of the damage he's about to commit.
"I can't do this to her"
"Ginny"
"I won't do this to her"
"Ginny"
"This whole thing is sick!"
"You Draco Malfoy, will impregnate the Weasley girl"
"Ginny…NO!" Draco suddenly pounded his fist though the wet hard bathroom wall. A cracked hole appeared when Draco pulled away sharply in pain. He looked at his right hand and saw the bloody mark that was left. Draco sighed then ran it under the hot water. Then he ran his hand through his wet hair.
"How can he make me do this to her" Draco sighed as he slid down to the wet floor and buried his head between his knees.
"Ginny"
Ginny walked down the halls later that afternoon. She was really worried she hadn't seen Draco all day today. "Maybe he's sick or something…but he would have at least come down for some food" She thought. Ginny sighed. Ginny looked up to see flyers all over the walls for the winter dance. Ginny smiled at the thought of her dancing in Draco's arms.
"Care to tell me why you're smiling like perky bubbly blonde person?" Ginny turned her head to see Luna walking next to her. Luna was dressed in some baggy gray sweat pants that hung around her lower waist and a red hooded sweater hung closely to her sides revealing curves and slightly showing her belly button. Ginny smiled at her.
"I'm just happy that's all"
"Mmmm hmmm" Luna said looking at her suspiciously.
"It looks like someone is going to the dance with a special someone or should I say a special slytherin-"
"Shhhhh!" Ginny said as she pulled Luna aside so no one could see them.
"Do you want people to hear that?!" Ginny said quietly.
"So what, you act like it's a crime or something." Luna said
"It will be if you don't shut up" Ginny mumbled
"So it's true then, you're going to the dance with him?" Luna asked. Ginny looked at her for a moment then smiled.
"Yes, it's true I'm going to the dance with Draco"
"Oh this is gonna be sooo good, I can't wait to see everybody's faces when you two walk in together….especially your brother" Luna said as the two continued to walk again.
"Please don't remind me" Ginny said Luna laughed at this. Then they both turned a corner and headed for the library, but what they didn't know was that someone was listening on their conversation. The person sneered at they're backs and walked away in a huff.
Draco turned off the water and grabbed his towel and wrapped it around his wet waist. Draco stepped out of the bathroom and headed upstairs towards his room. When Draco closed the door suddenly somebody spoke with a high shrieky voice.
"And where in Merlin's sake have you been!" Draco jumped and turned around to see Pansy sitting on a soft green couch next to his bed. She was wearing the school uniform (only the skirt was way too short) and her short bobby hair was up in a pony tail and she had both of her arms folded while furiously tapping her foot.
"How the hell did you get in here?!" He asked as he now stood in front of her. Pansy shot up out of her seat and looked him straight in the eye.
"Never mind how I got in, why weren't you in any of your classes today and why are you all bruised up what happened to you?" She said
"…..Hi to you too" Draco said as he turned around and headed towards his closet. Pansy followed him.
"Great first Blaise now you" Draco mumbled but Pansy overheard him.
"Blaise was here too, so you told Blaise what a happened to you but you can't even tell your own girlfriend?!" Draco almost dropped his towel at this.
"G-girlfriend?" He said as he looked at her. Pansy folded her arms again.
"Yes, girlfriend did you not know who you were going out with, or is there someone else involved?" Pansy said as she rose and eyebrow. Draco looked at her surprised for a moment but then went blank.
"Pansy go away" He said as he turned around to get some clothes out of his closet but Pansy grabbed his arm and turned him back around to face her again.
"No, I will not leave until you tell me if you're cheating on me!" She said stopping her foot like a child.
"Okay first of all I wasn't even going out with you-"
"It's her isn't it, it's that Weasley girl your dating isn't it" Pansy spat at her name like it was deadly. Draco stared at her surprised again but then turned his back on her.
"I don't know what you're talking about" he said turning around but Pansy grabbed his arm and turned him back.
"Yes you do Draco Malfoy, It's you who is going out with that Weasley slut and-"
"Don't, don't you dare talk to her that way….don't!" He said warningly pointing his finger in her face. Then he turned around and took out his clothes.
"So it's true then, Weasley was telling the truth, you are taking her to the dance aren't you?" Pansy said. Draco looked at her from the corner of his eye but then stared back at his clothes as he walked over to his bed.
"Draco have you absolutely gone mad?!"
"If you don't mind I would like to put my clothes on in peace." He said.
"Just tell me one thing…..why her…. what does that girl have that I don't?!" Pansy said both of her fists clenched. Draco chuckled at this.
"Oh I'm going to love this, okay; do you really want to know what Ginny has that you sadly don't?" He said. Pansy folded her arms sharply and looked at him demanding her answer.
"Ok, number one she's pretty, number two she has a brain, number three she doesn't cling on to me like a leech, number four she's pretty, number five she has a sense of style that apparently you don't have to save your own life, number six she's pretty, number seven she's not a sluty ass bitch and did I say she was pretty?" The room fell silent.
"Shall I go on?" Pansy stared at him with her jaw dropped to the floor.
"H-how dare you speak to me that way do you even know who you're talking to?!" Pansy said as she now narrowed her eyes at him. Draco sighed.
"Technically I don't give a rat's ass who you are Pansy but if you are wondering, you are the daughter of the 'oh so wealthy' Parkinsons. Your father is head of the magical medical industry and your mother is the editor of Witchly Vogue, which once she was known for posing as a sluty, yes I said it, a sluty brown cat, I really don't know what the deuce she was trying to pull off but she really looked terrible. But what can I say like mother, like daughter." He said with giving her an evil smirk. Pansy bolted towards him and raised her hand to strike him but he reacted quickly and grabbed her wrist. Draco bent down towards her ear with an evil smirk.
"Now get the hell out of my room" He said. Pansy's eyes had widened it looked like her tongue was cut off and she just now realized it. Then she finally spoke.
"B-but Drakey I-"
"Draco, my name is Draco, I came into this world with that name and I will die with that name…not…Drakey" He said then he threw her wrist down. Pansy stumbled back in shock then ran out of the room crying. Draco rolled his eyes as he pulled his black shirt over his head then had on some loose baggy dark blue jeans. He then walked over toward his mirror and sighed as he looked at his face for the first time. He had a dark blue-black mark on his right cheek and some dark red spots on his left. His left eye brow was slightly cut on top and his lip was slightly bruised into a color of dark blue. Draco sighed as he ran his hand through his wet hair then he grabbed his wand and left the room.
"So you're going to go with Malfoy huh?" Luna asked as both of them sat down at a table that was far in the back of the library.
"Yup" Ginny said as she scribbled down some notes on her homework, Luna was sprawled out on her seat with her right foot on top of the table.
"Aren't you worried about this, I mean as much as I want to see the look on Ron's face, aren't you a bit scared how it might affect you and other people I mean, this is a big step you're taking." She said. Ginny looked up at her and smiled.
"No, not at all, I mean at first I was because I knew about the consequences if I do take Draco as my date, but to be honest with you I can care less I love Draco and that's all that matters and as long as he's there beside me I'll be fine. And Ron will be fine too eventually, he just needs to accept things" Ginny said. Luna smiled at her.
"So what about you hmm?" Ginny said wiggling her eyebrows. Luna laughed.
"What about me?"
"You know what, I know you're taking Mr. Potter to the dance" Ginny said.
"Yes I'm going with him"
"So does that make you and Harry an official couple?" Ginny asked
"Well right now we're just taking things slow, I don't know for sure if I am ready to consider him as boyfriend material, and Harry perfectly understands how I feel and is totally cool about me still deciding." Luna said as she looked at her fingernails. Ginny raised and eyebrow.
"So your friends…with benefits?" Luna hesitated thinking about her question like it was hard.
"Well……yea, I guess you can kind of put it that way" Ginny rolled her eyes and chuckled.
"Well I better go find the bastard himself and don't forget we're both picking out dresses for the dance this weekend" Luna said as she gout up from the table. Ginny nodded and smiled at her then Luna left the library. Ginny sighed then continued to read her history book but for some reason her mind couldn't stop thinking about Draco.
"Where is he?" Ginny sighed again then suddenly gave a sharp gasp as he mind drifted of into a blurry vision the vision became more clearer. Ginny found herself in Diagon alley again only there was no people walking past her in a fast mode it was just her and…
"The boy" Ginny whispered as she saw the little boy a few feet away from her but standing straight in her direction only this time he wasn't giggling and trying to maker her run after him, this time he just stood their with his head down letting his white-blondish hair covering the left side of his face but the right side of his face was shown only his eyes were closed he looked…different. Ginny stood their staring at him not knowing what to do but just look. Ginny looked around again to see if anybody else was still around, but the town was still empty, a deadly silence to which only Ginny could hear her own breathing. Ginny took a deep breath then started slowly towards the boy she stretched out her hand as she slowly started to get closer to him and closer and closer until finally….
"Um…little boy" Ginny said as she gently touched his shoulders but then suddenly he snapped his head up and snapped open his eyes revealing red orbs instead of amber ones. Ginny jumped a step back and was about to turn around to run away but for some reason she couldn't, it felt like a tight force was pulling her back to him. It lifted her up in the air by her neck and turned her around to face him. The little boy stared at her lifelessly, his bloodshot eyes bearing into her not taking his eyes off her. The tight force suddenly had tightened its grip on her neck chocking her. Ginny gagged for air not knowing what else to do but just stare at him but hoping for someone to find her. The boy suddenly smirked at her.
"P-please, w-w-what are you-what are you doing!" Ginny hoaxed out but boy said nothing he just smirked that evil smirk…. a smirk that was so familiar to her but different in a way, for this smirk did not comfort her like the one she usually sees. Ginny didn't know what was going on the boy wasn't touching her but for some reason he was the reason why she was up in the air gasping for breath. Ginny closed her eyes shut hoping for this to be over, then suddenly she sees the same vision again, people screaming, blood splattering every where…..but this time instead of seeing amber eyes she saw those red orbs staring at her again…. not saying a word.
Ginny snapped out of her trance in an instant panting as she looked around, she was back in the silent library again only hearing the faint scuffles of quills scratching on parchment. Ginny sighed, she touched her throat but felt no bruises there.
"What in the hell just happened?!" Ginny thought
"Ahem, mind if I join you?" Said a familiar voice, thinking it was Draco Ginny immediately popped her head up but instead of meeting grey eyes she met chocolate brown ones. Blaise sat down at Ginny's table with a warm smile.
"Oh, Blaise, hi I didn't even see you there, uh…what's up?" Ginny said still kind of surprised at his presence.
"Nothing much, I just came to check up on you that's all" He said. Ginny raised an eyebrow at this.
"Uh…check up on me, well that's….weird of you" She said. Blaise laughed.
"No but seriously what are you doing here?"
"You heard me, I wanted to see if you were alright, I mean you are dating the most 'hottest' Slytherin in school am I right?" Ginny looked at him surprised.
"You know?"
"Yup"
"Draco told you didn't he"
"He didn't have to I always knew he had a thing for you, eventually I knew that you two would end up together." He said. Ginny smiled at him.
"So…..have you seen Draco lately?" He asked. Ginny looked at him now and saw a serious concerned looked splashed on to his face. Ginny sighed.
"I'd like to say yes but no, I haven't seen him all day. I had two classes with him and he hasn't attended any of them. Now it was Blaise's turn to sigh.
"You haven't happened to see him around have you?" Ginny asked hope lighting in her eyes. Blaise felt so sorry for her he wanted to tell her that he did and that Draco was all bruised up when he saw him but he couldn't he didn't want to worry her more as it is. Besides this is Draco's girlfriend he should be the one to tell her why he hasn't shown up for anyone of his classes.
"No, I haven't either" Ginny's light faded as she turned her head away but then she looked up at him.
"Well maybe he's sick, would you at least check on him to see if he's alright and tell him that I miss him?" Blaise stared at her for a minute but then smiled at her.
"No problem, I'll make sure I'll do that when I see him" He said.
"I know all about you protecting Draco, Blaise" She said. Blaise looked at her for a moment. Her soft features on her face showing how concerned she looked.
"And let me guess, Draco told you"
"He told me everything" She said. Silence mashed between them until Blaise broke it.
"Well I better get going then, I'll see you aroun-" Ginny suddenly grabbed Blaise's right hand across the table. She was still seated in her seat.
"I… just want to say…thank you" Blaise stared at her in shock searching her face to see if she was joking but…she wasn't.
"You've protected Draco for so long and not because you had to but because you wanted to, because I know Draco means a lot to you just as much as he means a lot to me. And with out you or Snape helping him he'd probably be lost and alone with no one to talk to…he'll feel unloved. I know that you'll always be there for him with or without his curse. So I just want to say thank you so much for being his guardian angel. Ginny said then she suddenly took the back of his hand and pressed it against her lips. She looked up at him and at him warmly.
"You're a good friend Zabini" Blaise couldn't say anything he was still shocked at what just happened.
"Uh, well, no problem…I guess" He finally said then he faintly smiled at her and quickly left the library. As soon as he stepped out of the silent library he turned a corner and roughly pressed his back to the wall panting. He slowly lifted his hand to his pounding heart.
"Why do I feel-"
"Psst!" Blaise snapped his head to the side and saw Draco standing there. He was looking better but his face was still bruised up. Blaise brushed himself off then gracefully walked up to him.
"Finally decided to come out of the cave?" Draco glared at him.
"Where have you been I was sneaking around looking all over for you" Draco said
"Repeat that sentence again and listen to how stupid that sounds. Blaise said. Draco glared at him again.
"I'm serious Blaise"
"Calm down will you I was just with your girlfriend a couple of minutes ago." He said.
"You mean you were with Ginny?" Draco said anxiously.
"Yeah, that is your girlfriend is it not" Blaise said sarcastically. He thought back to what had just happened between him and Ginny.
"Well, what did she say?" Blaise looked at him and stayed quiet for a moment he didn't want to say what Ginny told him to say because for some reason, he felt, he felt….
"Blaise" Draco said impatiently. Blaise snapped out of his thoughts.
"She uh….. she's really worried about you and she misses you…..happy?" He said. Draco sighed as he leaned his back against the clod stone wall and slid own on to the floor.
"What am I going to do" He said as he his face between his hands. Blaise raised an eyebrow at this.
"You know it would help if you just tell me what's going on with you, you know I'm here to help Draco it's my job" Blaise said. Draco looked up at him then looked away and sighed.
"I can't" He said. Blaise got frustrated.
"What do you mean you can't, it's easy just move your lips and tell me what happened last night!" He said. Draco stayed quiet. He really wanted to tell him honestly he did, but the curse won't let him do it, it was forbidden.
"Fine, but at least tell Ginny, she deserves to know" Blaise said. He was about to leave until he turned to Draco and said.
"By the way…..Snape's looking for you" then he left. Draco gulped. It was one thing to get past Blaise about last nights rendezvous with his father… Snape on the other hand won't be that easy. Draco sighed as he got up from off the floor dusted of his clothes and headed toward the direction of the dungeons where Snape was.
When he was about to past the library he peaked through the door and saw Ginny….his Ginny, sitting there reading a book her luscious red flaming hair covering the sides of her light warm skin she looked calm but worried. Draco sighed again, he didn't want to do this to her but avoiding her will be the only way to avoid the curse's task. He walked quickly past the library then headed towards the dungeons to meet the one person he really can't handle right now.
Okay that was that lol lol lol but yea the next chapter is coming soon so don't fret. Love Yazzzzzzzzz ok!!!!- DM16
