Draco's POV

Sob... Sob... Sob...

I heard a crying voice as I walk through the pretty garden. I wonder who's crying. I followed the voice till I saw a blond hair boy curled up in a ball under a big tree.

"Hey, why are you crying? Are you alright ?" I crouch in front of him. The boy shakes his head as his body starts to tremble and cries louder. "Hey... Are your parents here? It's alright, please don't cry." I don't know what came over me, but this boy seems so broken, I can't help but hug him.

After some time he started to relax in my embrace then plead, "please don't leave me..." "Hey, I won't leave... It's alright... Mind telling me why are you crying ?" I patted his head. "It's Hagrid... She's gone... Uncle snapped her neck because she shielded me when he tried to punish me..." Poor thing, " Is she someone special ?" "Yes.. she's my first owl and my best friend... Now I don't have anyone back at home..." The boy wailed as I keep patting his head. "Don't worry I won't leave you. I could be your best friend. Now please stop crying, Hagrid will be sad if you keep crying." I said as I wipe out his tears. "thank you..." My, I could say I'm stunned when he opens his eyes, "so pretty" I said unconsciously, "Um..." I snapped back, "I mean your eyes. It's so beautiful and emerald green." I told him while being red myself. "I uhh thank you... No one ever said such a nice thing about my eyes before..." He streams out. "Then I'll be the first!" I exclaimed as he softly laugh, "thank you...", Gosh dear Merlin, he's so cute when he laughs and that smile is so warm. "What's your name? And don't worry I won't leave." I asked his name, "my name is Ha-"

Suddenly I woke up,
"Draco wake up! We're gonna miss breakfast!" Said Blaise waking me up forcefully. "Ughh I'm up! I'm up! Geez could you be more gentle, you just disturb my beauty sleep!" I shouted back as I got up taking my robes. "Well, it's almost breakfast, if you want to miss it then be my guest," Blaise said as he fixes his necktie. "Ugh fine, in five!" I yelled as I bath and wore my robes, but can't find my necktie anywhere. "Blaise, did you take my necktie?" I asked while searching for it. "No, but I have a spare. Here, now hurry up." He tossed the necktie. "Thanks," I said, then we're off.

•During Breakfast•

'I wonder who's that boy? Is he a Hogwarts student too? I hope he's alright. I promised him I won't leave. Curse Blaise for waking me up before I even heard his name. But I felt like if seen that pair of eyes before...' I thought as I mindlessly stared at my breakfast. "Dray? Dray? You okay ?" I snapped back as Pansy tapped my shoulder, "What? Oh, I'm alright. Blaise yelled me up this morning." I said back as Pansy looked at Blaise, "Well sorry, I've been trying to get you up for like 15 minutes, but you didn't wake up. Last resort mate." Blaise held up his hands. I just sigh and ate my breakfast, "That petty Potter isn't here yet ?" I boringly asked the two, "Nope probably late again." Said Pansy.

As we finished breakfast, there was a bang from the main hall doors. There's yelling and shouts, "Harry! Are you alright?!" I heard Granger's shout. I rushed to the main hall door. "What's going on here ?!" I yelled out. "Ugh, why does it have to be you who showed up, Malfoy?!" Sneered Weasel. "Could just shut up and get Madam Porfey, Harry fainted Ron!" Granger yelled as she tried to wake up Potter. That's when I saw Potter's unconscious body, then I don't know what came over me, I carried him bridal style, then took off. I could hear yells from Granger, Weaselbe, Blaise, and Pansy, but I could care less, 'Why to call when you could bring him there yourself ?! Merlin he's so light. Does he even eat?!" I mentally cursed as I ran towards the hospital wing.

•Hospital Wing•

"Madam Porfey! Emergency!" I bragged in without knocking. "Goodness Merlin! Mr. Malfoy, have you heard of the word knocking ?" Hushed Madam Porfey got startled, "No time Madam, it's Potter!" I voice out. Madam Porfey suddenly looked worried, "What ?! Quick bring him to the bed!", I gently put him on the bed as she put on a locking spell on the door, then Madam Porfey took her wand and whisper something on Potter's body.

"What the Merlin?!" I'm so shocked when I saw Madam Porfey's canceling off a glamor spell. Potter's body transformed drastically thin with small visible bruises, you could even see his ribcages, and his skin tired pale as white, his eyes even have dark bags under them. "Quiet Mr. Malfoy!" She hissed out, "What happened to him?!" I asked back. "This is why I put on the locking spell. Mr. Potter wouldn't let anyone know about his condition. And I know you're shocked but I can only tell you that he's been through too much till he's like this. As for the reason I can't tell as I promised him not to." She said as she tended Potter's body with potions and spells. I could only stand there watching, 'How could his friends didn't realize his condition?! That Weasel! Weren't they in the same dorm room?!'  I thought as I faintly heard voices outside the Hospital Wing, "Mr. Malfoy." I broke out, "yes ?", "Calm down, I know you're still shocked, but I suggest you keep it out and back to your class. I will inform the professors that Mr. Potter won't be attending his classes. And I'll see you again in the afternoon. Now move along." Madam Porfey explain and I could only nod as she sends me off the door, not forgetting to deactivate the locking spell.

"Madam Porfey! Is Harry alright?!" Stormed Granger at Madam Porfey, "What did you do to him Malfoy ?!" Hissed Weaselbe, and there were murmurs on the halls. "Silence everyone! Mrs. Granger and Mr. Weaselly I can assure you both that everything's alright, Mr. Potter won't be attending his classes till further notice. And Mr. Malfoy please come again this afternoon. Now everyone on to your classes!" Madam Porfey explains and sends everyone off, including both Granger and Weasel.
