It had been a week.
A week since I'd last hurt myself.Since I promised Draco and went behind his back to get Theo to counteract any spells I'm terrified to try it out and ruin everything. I'm not sure how I was managing it but the adrenaline was creeping up on me, like a leaky tap slowly filling my blood stream until it flooded. It wasn't long. I couldn't wait. I couldn't wait to flood.
I was barely sane, I'd managed seven days without making myself sick. Little an often. I'd eat often enough to make him happy and little enough to make me happy. I believed I was maintaining. My purging bloat had settled and I felt a little bit more like myself, unfortunately no where near what I wanted to be.
I woke up in a fine mood.
He wasn't next to me I woke up alone, slightly panicked. "Draco?" My voice croaked.My head was thumping and I remembered we had a drink last night, or maybe five. I don't remember going to sleep but I do remember we were going to play a game, I just couldn't quite place it.
I heard rustling in the bathroom.
"I'm pissing."Lovely.
"Can I hold it?" I shout"What?"
"Nothing, Where's the pain killers?"
"Night stand. Take two, not the whole pack."
Tosser.
"I fucking wish." I muttered.I grabbed the white pills and felt around the floor for a drink, grabbing the closest glass I downed the tablets along with the full glass of still lemonade. It had a slight peculiar taste and I groaned hoping I hadn't inhaled more alcohol.
The bathroom door opens and a dishevelled Malfoy strolled out.
"You can hold it next time."I smirked. "You heard me."
"My ears never turn off ..." He trailed off his sentence and paused, staring at the night stand, the empty glass on the night stand.
"Oh no.""Oh no?" I uttered into my pillow.
"What did you take the pills with?"
I lifted my head up, just making out his face in the darkness. He was biting back a grin, a huge grin. "Lemonade."
He threw his head back and started laughing, biting his lip, the type of laugh that reeked of 'oh no'.
That caught my attention. I sat up fast.
"What is it." I demanded."You don't remember?"
Impatient now i heightened my voice.
"Remember what!""Our game. Last night?" He sat down on the bed. "The one we didn't play because you drank one too many?"
I stared blankly.
"The arousal potion."
Oh fuck no.
"I DID NOT." I laughed out of disbelief.
The funny taste. That was it,
I threw my hand over my mouth.
"I did."Draco nodded, smirking for England.
"You're so screwed, that was double dose, we were meant to share that."I shrieked. " what does double dose do!?"
He laid flat on the bed.
"I haven't a clue."I didn't feel anything yet. "How long does it take to kick in?"
"About half an hour."
"Good thing we've got nothing to do today." I beamed.
He scratched his head in silence. " well."
"Well what." I warned.
"I have a meeting with Nott, remember?"
Oh fucker I forgot about that.
"No,no,no,no." I put my head in my hands.
"Listen the meetings in an hour, I'll be two hours tops then I'm all yours."
"I need to shower it off."
He practically snorted. "Won't work."
"I can try." I leap out of bed.
"Hurry, I need to get ready for my meeting."
