My eyes snapped open.

"Belle—? Belle!!" Draco wrapped his arms around my figure " I—I knew you would wake up, darling"

"Dra—Draco" my voice cracked, I haven't been able to talk for long

"Darling, I've missed you" he pressed his lips against my forehead and then a small peak on my nose "never leave me again"

He pulled away and looked at me, a small sparkly tear running down his cheek "promise?"

"I promise" he pulled me into another warm embrace.

Him and I sat together on my hospital wing, he was holding me into his chest just kissing and hugging me. He never once let me go, he was scared that I would leave again, he was scared that I would get hurt, he was scared for my life.

"Are they breaking the arrangement?" I asked him, playing with the rings on his fingers

"I don't know" he said, and kissed my head "I hope not"

I smiled, I was happy to be held in his arms. Only him and I together. I wanted to be with him without complications;

But I couldn't stop thinking about the person that had visited me. His voice had been low and dark. A warning he had said, like it was a test. He wanted to test me. I didn't recognize the voice, but the dialect had been familiar.

"how- how long was I gone?"

"Two weeks" he said, his arms still wrapped around me in a embrace

"But that means that-"

"That we're going back to Hogwarts soon" he cut me off and continued himself, I had been gone for 2 weeks.

"I've heard everything, everything you've said to me, I could hear you all the time, dinner with the Greengrass family huh?"

"My father made me go there, I didn't even want to, they wanted me to marry Astoria instead of you if you didn't wake up in the next 24 hours. But you're awake now" he sounded happy

I was happy that he was happy, my favorite boy.

"Darling, I won't let anyone hurt you" he said "no one will ever hurt you, I-"

"Isabella'' my fathers voice cut Draco off, his voice was sharper than usual which meant that he was angry "Draco could you wait outside? I want to talk to my daughter alone"

Draco was still, his gaze shifted from my father to me, his grey eyes met mine as he stayed quiet.

"It's okay" I said, giving him a small smile "wait outside, I won't go anywhere"

He smiled before walking out the room, leaving me alone with my father.

"Father I'm-"

"Quiet" he snapped, not even bothering to look at me "I am very disappointed in you Isabella, what did you think when you drank that drink that you had no idea where you had gotten in from, hmm?"

"E-everyone was holding onto the same drink- or so I thought-" I said nervously " and they drank the drink and then I did the same, you were holding the same drink, mother were, Draco were, my friends were and everyone else- I thought it was okay, I thought it was safe"

"That's okay, princess-" my fathers voice softened and so did the facial expressions on his face "I'm just glad that you're okay"

I smiled at my father, I could see a small tear wanting to escape his eye. My father was happy that I was alive, he was relieved that I was okay, he loved his little girl.
