I'm Okay

Chapter 29

     After I woke up, I went on with my day, but when I crossed paths with Blaise, Draco, or Theo, I would slip the note into their pockets. I had to do it with Snape too. The point of getting the boys on board with this was so I didn't have to slip a piece of paper into his pocket, but I needed him to know that information as I felt it was too severe for the kids to know.

     Once everyone had their piece of paper, I walked away from the castle and went down to the lake. I put instructions on the paper that they should go to Snape to see how they should deal with the massages and other things.

     I walked into the manor with a feeling of dread. Classes had just finished when I felt a burning that was starting to become familiar. I went somewhere reclusive before I apparated to the manor.

     So here I am, in a room full of death eaters, all dressed in their uniform, saying I had one more mission to do before summer break started.

     I hate my life. The thing they wanted me to do was to talk to other Vampires. They wanted me to distract them so the others could sneak in and seal something from them. I guess it's something to restore someone's old body.

     I was going with the plan till I knew they would have difficulty escaping if a vampire came down. I wouldn't let them go through with their plan. That's too much power for Voldemort.

     "So you were turned when you were three?"

     "Yes."

     "By who?" another asked.

     "I don't know. I do know they were a parselmouth."

     "I'm one too," A younger one said excitedly.

     "You guys might have been turned by the same vampire," the first one said.

     I then looked at the younger one and said, "You need to check your potion supplies. Or have someone do it. I didn't come here on coincidence," in parseltongue.

     He must have communicated with someone not in the room, as he then said, "Don't worry. It's been done," in perseltongue. "Of this is so cool. But I'm not the best at perseltounge," in English.

     That's when there was a large crash, and I knew I had to leave now. Using my speed, I left the room and met where the group was supposed to regroup. I was told not to engage as I needed to tell the others if something happened.

     Seeing me, they rushed towards the house and I was told to wait till told otherwise. I waited for ten minutes, but left once I was sure they failed. I apparated into the manor and told the dark lord what happened. He was angry, but told me to head back to Hogwarts.

     Summer break starts tomorrow and the potion still needed seven days to rest before the hair could be added. I had informed the malfoys that I would stay with Snape during the break. Blaise, Draco, and Theo had talked to Harry about being kicked out of their house, and if they could stay with him.

     Harry had said yes, but didn't inform Sirius about it. I wish I could be there to see his face when Blaise, Draco, and Theo walk into the house. Actually, I needed to grab the few items I had there.

     Oh I can't wait to watch Sirius' face when we all walk in. I might piss myself from laughing so hard. I guess I should go tell Severus of my plans.

     Walking out of my dorm, I went into Severus office and saw Draco in there. I paused and they turned to look at me in the doorway. I say Draco had red eyes and asked, "What happened?"

     Draco took a shaky breath before saying, "I got a letter from my parents." He then handed me the letter.

     I read it. I then stared at it before saying, "What they said is utter bullshit. But, the letter has some sort of magic on it. I think it's a tracking spell, so you might want to destroy it."

     Snape took it and threw it in the fire. I turned back to Draco and saw the broken look on his face. I sat in the car next to him and said, "Hi. Just because you've lost your blood family, doesn't mean you've lost your family."

     He looked at me and asked, "What?"

    "Blood family, you know what that is right?"

     He nodded.

     "Okay. But you have good friends and your godfather to look after you just as you look after them. And you trust them a lot as they do you. The best thing about the family I just mentioned is it's not forced. You're not required to hang out with them or like them because of blood. The people in that letter are only relatives. The ones around you are family."

     I saw how his eyes glazed over before a small smile came onto his face. He then hugged me. I froze but then lightly patted his back. It had been a while since someone hugged me.

     When Draco let go, he said, "Thank you."
