it was now the summer holidays, y/n was lying on her bed staring at the ceiling daydreaming. there was a timid knock on the door, snapping y/n out of her thoughts.
"come in!" y/n said. the door creaked open to reveal debbie, the y/l/n family house elf.
"miss y/l/n, mr and mrs malfoy are here for you," debbie informed, before y/n could thank the elf, she quickly scurried out of the bedroom to continue with her house chores.
confused as to why the malfoy parents would be at the y/l/n manor without draco, let alone be asking for her, y/n got out of bed and walked out of her bedroom.
her heels echoed as she descended herself on the grand staircase, only to see the malfoy parents and her parents conversing in the sitting room.
"cissy? mr malfoy?" y/n called out as she walked towards the four adults.
they turned their heads attention now on y/n.
"dear, mr and mrs malfoy have to take you somewhere," mrs y/l/n walked up to y/n, placing a comforting hand on her lower back.
"where to? where's draco?" y/n asked confused.
"we'll explain when we get there," mrs malfoy placed another comforting hand on y/n's shoulder.
y/n noticed there was something off about narcissa. her hair was, although still neatly pinned up, a few more loose strands were sticking out than usual. and her porcelain white face was frailer than usual, her eyes puffy almost as if she had been crying.
mr malfoy was also different. his usual confident stance which consisted of his shoulders being pushed back, chest puffed out, and legs shoulder-width apart, was now replaced with a slightly hunchbacked man, resting all his weight on his cane.
"wh-where's draco?" y/n queried once again.
y/n, however, earned no response from any of the parents, instead, narcissa had linked her arms with y/n's, and mr malfoy had linked his arms with his right.
"hold on tight we'll be right there," mr malfoy instructed. by this point, y/n realised they were about to apparate somewhere, and she hated apparating, it made her feel sick. she squeezed her eyes shut as she felt the familiar sickening feeling course through her body.
when she opened her eyes she found herself on the third floor of st mungo's hospital, the 'potion and plant poisoning' floor.
"draco was out by the woods when he got bit by a teething venomous tentacula," narcissa explained as tears spilled from her eyes, "he was stunned by it and has fallen into a coma."
