She Is Alive ~ V | d.m.

31. The Eyes

Draco, looked down at me as I was only showing him my back. I was already full of anger from being pushed around, so when Draco stood me up, he held my arms behind me without even casting a single glance towards my face.

I was growing even more impatient and soon stepped on his foot as he pulled back annoyed.

I growled inside and backed up into him making him turning me around as he growled at me, "Would you cut it-" only to stop when he noticed my face but soon my eyes, as they flashed red before becoming my normal lilac eyes again.

"Scar..."

I met his grey eyes but it seemed that he hadn't been sleeping. His figure was slim and his eyes were slightly falling apart inside. Something was wrong, but I sighed and sent him a smile to which he only stood confused, "Hello again."

"Draco. Come here. They say they've got Potter," Narcissa's cold voice rang as Draco walked towards her but pulling me with him, handing me to his mother. She curiously looked at me and then noticed my eyes giving me a solemn smile before turning back to Draco.

Harry didn't look directly at Draco, but Draco kneeled down and looked over his face, before glancing my way. I shook my head and he gave me a slight nod.

"Well, boy?" Greyback snarled.

There was a silence as I could tell Draco was fighting the urge to give him up.

"Well, Draco?" Lucius Malfoy soon walked up behind Draco and spoke in a hushed whisper, "Is it? Is it Harry Potter?"

"I can't- I can't be sure," Draco spoke as I let out a small sigh.

"But look at him carefully, look! Come closer! Draco, if we are the ones who hand Potter over to the Dark Lord, everything will be forgiven."

"Now, we won't be forgetting who actually caught him, I hope Mr. Malfoy?" Greyback spoke as if awaiting a reward.

"Of course not, of course not!"

"What did you do to him?" Mr. Malfoy turned and asked Greyback, "How did he get into this state?"

"That wasn't us."

"Looks more like a Stinging Jinx to me," Mr. Malfoy thought for a moment before shaking his head.

I watched as Draco's eyes looked over Harry's forehead.

"There's something there," he whispered, "It could be the scar, stretched tight..."

"Draco, come here, look properly! What do you think?"

"I don't know," Draco sighed and stood walking towards me but only watched as I was pulled away by Scabior into another room as Draco followed, "Hey! Give her to me."

Scabior, looked at me and then at Draco, "What does he want with you? Who are you beautiful?"

I growled and burned the rope away as I became myself again grabbing his collar before he could catch a glimpse of my face as I whispered into his ear, "Scarlett Grindelwald. It'll do you good to remember it."

I pushed him back against the wall as Draco walked up behind me, pulling me back by the waist.

I rolled my eyes, "Obliviate. Imperio. Go back to the main room."

Scabior stood and nodded leaving as I turned back around, "Scar, I missed you."

"Aww, Draco. I wasn't gone that long."

He chuckled as he pulled me into a tight embrace before letting me go, meeting my eyes, "I really did miss you, but there's something you should know."

"I have something to tell you too. But you go first."

He lowered his eyes and brought his voice to barely a whisper.

"I'm engaged to be married."
