Tears Dry On Their Own {Draco Malfoy}

Chapter 5

“Hello there.” Bellatrix said to me while holding the back of my neck with pressure while grasping strongly onto my hair. In her other hand her wand poked my flesh. “What are you doing in my house?” She asked sternly with a hint of sarcasm in her voice. When I didn’t reply she tugged onto my hair harder. “Well?” She asked once more.

My throat was dry and the words that I was about to say weren’t able to escape my lips due to the fact that her wand was pressed against my throat.

“No answer? Well than Cr-”

“Bella what are you doing?” Bellatrix turned around and let go of me. I rubbed the back of neck to ease down the pain that she had caused me. When I looked over in direction Bellatrix was facing I saw a middle-aged woman holding a young child in her arms. I recognized him immediately. He was my Scorpius.

“She just trespassed into our house Cissy!” She yelled pointing at me and setting herself aside so that the other woman was able to get a good look at me.

“Mommy!” Scorpius jumped out of the woman’s arms and ran towards me pulling on my jeans for me to pick him up. I smiled, bent down, and picked him up holding onto him tightly into my arms.

“So…you’re his… mother?” The woman with blonde hair said while walking up to me. “How?” She asked once more. Before I could answer a few more people entered the room.

“What’s wrong Narcissa?” Asked a man with long blonde hair and black robes. He walked up to his wife. She pointed her finger at me.

“She’s his mother…” She trailed off. The man squinted upon me.

“Have you ever met my son?” He asked walking up and circling around me, keeping a good eye on us both.

“Yes…” I said. He looked at me carefully.

“Name?” He asked. I thought for a second deciding whether or not to answer his questions.

“Look this in my Mommy!” Scorpius said while tangling his fingers in with my hair.

“What’s her name?” He asked him in a kind voice.

“Mommy.” He simply said. I closed my eyes and prayed to the Lord for Scorpius’s actions.

“Yes, I know she is your mother but what is her name?” Asked Bellatrix sternly. Before I could say anything to distract her thoughts someone responded to her question.

“Sydney Clarkson.” My eyes followed the voice. They led me looking ahead up to a young man with a pale pointed face, cold grey eyes, and platinum blonde hair. He was Draco.
