You open your eyes the following morning and give a groan. You notice twist around to be met with Draco's elbow next to you as he is sitting up against the headboard.
"How much trouble am I in?"
"Loads!" he huffs. "But first, are you alright?"
"I feel like I lost a fight with a Hippogriff!"
"Is that what you were doing?"
"No!...I fell...in the Astronomy Tower."
"You fell?"
"I was very drunk at this stage and Luna and I were upstairs and when we went to come back down...we fell. Blaise found us and Harry and Hermione. Harry helped me back to the room as we thought you were here."
"I was here looking for you but then I went to check the party again when I couldn't find you."
"Well now you know I was being a drunken fool."
"You took a very nasty fall. Want to go to the hospital wing and get checked out?"
"No. I will be fine after some breakfast. What time is it?"
"After 9. Want to go now and get food?"
"Yes please!" You make to jump out of bed but you instantly bring your hand up to your ribs and hiss in pain.
There is a gasp from behind you. "Evee how hard did you fall?"
"Pretty hard. I fell against the stone floor and wall."
"Your back is purple! Your face is too and your lip has a nasty cut on it."
"I am never drinking again."
"Why didn't to tell me where you where going?"
"There was no time."
"No time?"
"I mean Luna had already left and I was following her." You throw a pair of jeans on and a cardigan. "Come on let's eat."
Walking to breakfast was horrendous. You felt like everyone was staring. It was mortifying. You were about to suggest turning back when Blaise approaches you.
"How do you feel this morning?"
"How do I look?"
"I am not answering that for fear of being hit."
"I will...you look awful sweetie." Pansy says pushing past him to stand in front of me.
"What happened? Blaise said it was an accident?"
"Yeah Luna and I fell when drunk"
"You poor thing. You should have stuck to the dance floor with us." She links her arm through yours and you head to the hall. You grasp onto Draco as you sit down and he begins to reach across the table and plate food for you.
You slowly lean in to kiss his cheek in thanks as Luna approaches the table.
"Morning," she mumbles as she sits to the left of you. You give her hand a squeeze under the table.
"And how are you cousin?" Draco asks.
"Hm?"
"After the fall last night. You don't look as sore as Evee. Are your injuries ok?"
"Oh...yeah I am ok. Evee got the worst of it."
"Next party I am not letting either of you out of my sight!" Draco smirks.
Breakfast is quiet as everyone is staring at you. This is exactly what you didn't want to happen. Truthfully you did want to tell McGonagall on those boys for what they did but you were afraid of what people would think of you.
