He couldn't care less that as soon as he stepped in, all eyes were on him and within a few seconds the loud chattering had gone completely silent in the Grand Hall. People stopped eating and stared with uncertainty and fear at Draco.
If he gave a fuck, he would've yelled at them. Or he might've sneered and said "My father will hear about this!"
Right. His father. He won't be able to hear nothin' now.
His stomach clenched.
He darted across the room, ignoring the questions and the stares. He tried very hard not to think of Harry bleeding to death and his father being killed by dementors.
The Ravenclaws were looking at him with fascination and curiosity as he walked by, while the Hufflepuffs watched, biting their nails. The Gryffindors were simply too shocked to speak, while some whispered

If this was how it felt to be famous, he could almost feel sorry for Potter. Anger and frustration bubbled up inside him like a steaming cauldron before he finally had enough and gave a sturdy punch to Colin's stomach.
