Malfoy Neighbors

Angry at Potter-year 6 chapter 30

A few weeks passed, and Draco hadn't spoken to you since the argument with him over the murder of Dumbledore. You couldn't talk to Sam about it either. And even if you could, she wouldn't have it. She was still angry with you and wasn't talking to you at all.

You knocked on Professor Snapes office door, which was still in the dungeons and didn't change in the  slightest. You were hoping to find Draco. He wasn't in the Room of Requirement or the Star Room and you couldn't find him anywhere else in the school so perhaps he was with Snape.

"Enter." Snape said dully. You opened his door.

"Professor? Is Draco here?" You asked. He shook his head. "Then, Can I talk to you?" You asked shyly.

"Miss (l/n), you're not in my class this year." He said confused.

"It's about Draco." You said.

"Oh," Snape replied and waved you in. "Shut the door behind you."

"Do you know about the task given to Draco?" You asked him as you did as you were told.

"The one given by the Dark Lord? Yes, I do." Snape spoke quietly. "How much do you know?"

"Well," you sat down in the chair that Snape was now pointing at. "I know that he was told he had to kill Dumbledore and I'm scared for him. I'm scared he won't do it and if he does do it he'll change."

"You have nothing to be worried about." Snape said. You looked at with a puzzled look. "I promised his mother I would protect him. I will do that and Draco will be fine." Snape convinced you and you trusted him. He would protect Draco.

"Alright," you said releaved.

"You better go off to dinner, now." Snape said and you left his office. You weren't that hungry, so instead, you headed off to the Room of Requirement again. Draco would eventually go there. You thought if you stayed there he would show up.

On your walk there, you reached the 6th floor and heard something shatter.

"No! No! Stop it! stop! STOP!" The voice of Myrtle filled the corridor. More bangs and shattering came down the hall. Myrtle screamed again. Snape, who must have been somewhere behind you, ran passed you. You stood there frozen .

"SECTUMSEMPRA!" Potter's voice yelled.

"MURDER! MURDER IN THE BATHROOM! MURDER!" Myrtle screamed again. What had just happened? After a minute passed, Snape came running passed with Draco in his arms.

"Draco?" You asked stund. You looked down the hall were Potter's voice came from and where you could hear Myrtle still. You chased after Snape. "Professor?" You called after him as you fallowed him down the stairs to the 5th then the 4th floors. "What happened?" You asked when you caught up with him at the hospital wing.

"Draco will be ok." He said looking angry and headed back down the corridor. You faced the infirmary.

You stood there for a minute before entering. Sitting on one of the beds was Draco. He was covered in blood. You walked over to him. "What happend?" You asked sitting down beside him while Madame Pomfrey did her thing.

"Potter tried to kill me." He said resentfuly. "That hurts!" He yelled at Madame Pomfrey who was wrapping him up.

"Yes well, you will just have to deal
Mr. Malfoy. You were hurt badly." She replied. "Now lay down and rest."

"No, I've got things to do." Draco said angrily. You knew what he ment. He wanted to go after Potter and you couldn't blame him.

"You will rest first." Madame Pomfrey insisted.

"She's right, Draco." You said. "I know you're angry. Trust me, so am I." You spoke clearly, hoping he would understand that he needed to rest and you would go comfort Potter. Draco sighed and laid back. "Good. I'll be back later." You said before kissing him and headeding out to hunt Potter down. You wanted to know what happened. Why did Potter do that? You knew that the two didn't get along but you didn't think Potter would have tried to KILL Draco.

You went back to the 6th floor corridor. Potter was probably not there but perhaps you could get a clue to what happened.

"Do you what I think, Potter?" You heard Snape's voice as you stopped short of the boys bathroom. "I think that you are a liar and a cheat and that you deserve detention with me every Saturday until the end of term. What do you think, Potter?"

'Detention for trying to kill draco?' You thought and kept listening.

"I...I don't agree sir," Potter said.

"Well, we shall see how you feel after your detentions. Ten o'clock Saturday morning, Potter. My office." Snape said coldly.

"But sir... Quidditch...the last match of the..." Potter said with the tone that said it was unfair. It was fully fair. In fact, in your opinion, he should be thrown out of the school for attempted murder. You didn't hear snapes reply to him as you were deep in your own thoughts.

Snape left the bathroom and down the corridor without noticing you there. You looked into the Room to see Potter standing there.

"What did you do?" You asked him with a cold tone. "Why did you try to KILL Draco?" You asked, walking closer to him.

"I...." He looked at the wet floor. "I didn't mean to..."

"You didn't mean to? What is sectumsempra?" You asked.

"I don't know." He said looking back at you. "I didn't know it would do that."

"What?!" You said shocked. "How can you use a spell you don't know?" You spoke with anger. "Are you really that stupid!?"

"I...." He whispered shamefully. "I'm sorry."

"It's not me you need to apologize to, Potter!" You said with resentment and walked away. You had to leave. If you stayed any longer, you would have used the same spell on him, just to show him just how bad he hurt Draco. You were just that angry.
