The sun shown though dark gray clouds, one or two birds singing in the sky. Two students where both sleeping soundlessly in each others arms, in their own dreams.
Draco dreaming of saving a beautiful princess from a evil dragon. However for Hermione, she only saw darkness and she didn't know if she was looking at the back of her eyelids or if she was trap inside a dark room in her dream.
But their dreams didn't last when a owl landed on the arm of the couch.
"What in Merlin's beard!" Draco cursed as the owl pecked his forehead.
Hermione fluttered her eyes open and yawned. "What is it Drake?"
"Just an owl, go back to sleep it's okay," Draco said softly and slowly wiggled out of Hermione's hug.
Draco walked to the study and the owl followed, landing on a candle stand. Draco sighed and walked to it, he grabbed the letter out of it's claw. Owl pecked is figure and flu out of a window that was carelessly left open. Draco didn't care about window, so didn't bother to close it.
He turned the letter over and there in melted wax was the Malfoy symbol : a snake intertwining with the letter M. Draco rip open the letter, it read:
Dear Draco,
I don't know how to put this in words, but something terrible happened last night. Your mother was so close to recovering, but just last night her heart stop. She she just give up, Draco I did my hardest I swear to Merlin I tried to save your mother,but nothing worked. Her death caught me by surprise, I thought by the end of this year she would be better. Her funeral will be a week before Christmas.
Always here for you,
Aunty Loranna
Wait five seconds
Draco felt tears flow down his cheeks, but he did wait five seconds and suddenly the words on the letter changed.
Draco, she didn't die because of a heart attack. She died because of poison, I remember she told me that her medic tasted different and when I opened the medic the smell of filled the air. I used all the spells I could think of, but it was to late. Draco the medic, a healer always comes and drops it off at the manor, but yesterday it was some one different. I think that person poisoned you mother. I didn't get to see the face of the healer, but I know it was a women with brownish blonde hair, it is not very helpful, I know, but I just know that your mother was poisoned. Don't think she give up, you know know how much she loved you, so please don't think she give up.
A few seconds later the letter turned to flames, Draco dropped it on the floor. With tears still coming down his cheeks, he kicked the ashes of the letter. He walked to the wall and slide down it, crying into his hands.
Who would kill his mother? She was loving and caring to almost everyone she met. Who would kill a sick women in bed?
"Draco are you alright?"Hermione said sliding down the wall next to him.
He didn't give an answer, just cried till there wasn't any more tears to spill.
"It's okay, I am here like when you are here for me,"Hermione said then leaned on his shoulder.
Draco raised his head from his hands and starred off into space. He sniffed, and leaned on Hermione's head.
"Thank you it means a lot,Hermi," Draco said through sniffs.
