I wake up early to the noise of someone in the next room. I had been the only person staying here for weeks and the noise of someone other than me staying here was very much unwelcome. I isolated myself, only leaving my room for food.

The new neighbor kept making a racket and I pounded on the wall,"Shut up!" The noise stops and I lay back down staring at my ceiling. Seconds later there's a knock on my door and I huff as I get up and crack the door.

"Granger?"

I close my eyes irritatedly because my new neighbor is none other than: "Malfoy." His pale blond hair, usually slicked back, is now rather fluffy and messy looking, it looks better this way. But that's about the only thing that looks better. His eyes are red and he has dark circles underneath them. His lips are chapped and has more dirt than I'd think possible caked underneath his finger nails. His pale skin, usually rather smooth looking is covered with bruises and scars and his face looks hallow and sunken.

"May I come in?"

"Why would I let you come in?" I say with raised eyebrows.

"Because I need to speak with you," he says irritatedly.

I sigh and open the door all the way to let him, he works over to my bed and lays down on his side, looking at me. "Make yourself at home," I mutter as I walk over to my bed and lay sideways, facing him. "What would you like to speak to me about?"

He drops the cocky, confident look and I see a Draco Malfoy I've never seen before. He looks exhausted and rather depressed, I saw him with his gaurd down.

"I never wanted to be a Death Eater. I never really had much of a choice, though. I did what I was told or I'd die. I mean, I just felt like that me doing what I had to would never last long and I thought just maybe I could have a life afterwards, you know? And now my dad's in jail and my mum.. my mum is dead. And now I can maybe be able to live my own life. And I just want you to know I truly am sorry for how I've treated you. When a kid is grown up a certain way they stick to it. But now my family is gone and I pulled my head out of my arse and I want you to know I wish I could redo it, I really do," he inhales rather sharply,"A-and I wanted to apologize for not stopping Bellatrix when she did that to you," his eyes flashing to my arm for a split second and I just sit there frozen. "You don't have to accept my apologies, but please, just say something."

Malfoy just apologized to me. I open my mouth to tell him it's okay and instead a loud sob comes out, if possible his face falls even more and he wraps his arms around me. At this point I don't much mind that it's Draco Malfoy. It's just nice having someone to hold me.

And as I'm falling asleep, the sobs less frequent and my eyes growing heavy. I swear I hear him whisper a goodnight and feel him plant a light kiss on the top of my head.
