Protect

Today is dinner.

And I'm terrified.

I don't know what he's going to talk about, or do.

Mattheo never gave me my vile this morning, which is odd considering It's his duty to.

But I have a really bad feeling that I can't get rid of.

My arm is really sensitive right now, from all the itching I've done to it.

Mattheo hasn't been talking to me, but I get it, I've been mute for days.

I've slept a lot more since I'd rather be dreaming than be awake in this hell.

But that's been ruined with nightmares.

Really horrible nightmares, but one keeps happening.

It's a normal day, I walk into class but I sit on my own.

And my friends don't talk to me at all, as I've they've forgotten about me.

They bring up my parents death but none of them talk about me.

Even my dreams hate me, putting my worst fear in my head.

I try and talk to them but I can never actually say anything, as if I'm blocked off from everyone.

It's horrible.

But all the other ones I have is just Tom using the cruciatous curse on me, over and over again.

I always wake up in a panic, all sweaty and my breath fastens. I was most likely fidgeting in my sleep, but no one hears me.

But I also doubt that they'd help if they can, or my room has a silence charm on it.

Another way of disregarding my existence.

I change my top to a black tank top and and I put on dark blue sweatpants.

I brush my teeth and just brush my hair out.

I go downstairs and get a bowl of cereal with water.

All I've been able to drink is water, every other drink just tastes horrible and I can't keep it down.

I start eating my cereal when Narcissa walks in, her face softens when she sees me.

" hello Isobel " she says softly, giving me a small smile.

" hi " i say lightly, barely a whisper.

She looks a bit surprised that I said hi back, since I haven't been doing that for days.

" good to know you're speaking again"

I continue eating my cereal when she walks past me and stops In her tracks.

Shit... the mark.

" oh my goodness Isobel, what have you been doing ? " she says, giving me a worried expression.

" nothing seems to help the pain anymore, not even cold showers.... I can't just ignore the pain "

She touches it and I shiver at the feeling " Isobel.. you can't keep doing that, your arm looks-

She cuts off her expression when Lucius walks in.

He gives me a glare as he walks over to Narcissa, giving her cheek a kiss.

He looks at my arm and his face slightly changes.
