DRACO MALFOY

"Get the fuck out of here now." I bellowed pushing the plump boys away from me as they cowered. Scrambling away they pulled each other down the path.

Blaise caught up, his face painted with worry as his gaze moved towards Daisy; her back to a tree shakingly breathing, eyes closed a pained expression.

"Daisy. Daisy?" Theo shook her shoulders gently and began stroking her hair.

My body moved instinctively towards her.

THEO NOTT

Draco appeared, concern etched his face. Genuine concern for my sister?
"What's happened to her." He rushed looking back and forth me and her as she cried unresponsive.
"She gets these after, you know." I began trailing off. I still can't think about or even begin to talk about what happened last year. But I know Draco heard most of the story from my mother. He gets it.

"Daisy. You're okay, you're okay." I whispered to her. 

Her eyelids fluttered as she began to open her eyes. A deep line etched between her brows as she started taking in her surroundings.

 She hadn't had one of these flashbacks in a few months, maybe Hogwarts is too much for her?

"It's okay, you are okay." I took her arms and pulled her up to stand, she steadied herself slowly.

"I'm sorry, I'm so sorry! I don't know what happened, it- it was just because of.." She trailed off to a whisper.

"I kn-" I began,

"We know Dais, you don't have to explain, just breathe" Draco interrupted.

My head spun as I narrowed my eyes at him in confusion. Draco being nice? Blaise exchanged a glance at me and narrowed his eyes towards Draco, a streak of envy flashing in his dark eyes at the blonde boy. 

"Are you okay?" Blaise questioned.

"I've been better" Daisy exclaimed, a small lopsided smile on her face, "I would quite like to go back now"

I laughed lightly, "Come on."
