Ten Days Until Initiation
Harry's POV

I have stayed by Draco's bedside ever since I found out about the accident, of course with classes and meals excluded. He is improving because he realized he had to eat in front of Madam Pomfrey or they would find out that not only does he self harm but he also has an eating disorder. So that's one good thing that's come of all this. I believe he has gained a few pounds already but he is so skinny you still can't really tell for sure. I don't even want to know his beginning weight because I fear how small it is. Draco and I are meeting tomorrow with Madam Pomfrey and Professor Dumbledore about Draco's self harm so I hope that goes alright.

Draco won't talk to me, and he will barely look at me. I don't know why this is but it scares me.

It was time for breakfast in the Great Hall again so I told Draco goodbye and left to go there.

Upon my arrival Ron spotted me and stopped me just before I reached the entrance.

"Mate we need to talk." He said.

"About yesterday?" I said.

"Yes."

"Alright let's find an empty classroom."

Ron nodded and about five minutes later we came across a deserted classroom. We didn't know whose it was but it didn't matter.

"Alohomora." I said the spell with my wand in hand pointing at the locked but empty classroom door.

The door opened and Ron stepped in first.

"Well what is it?" I asked kindly.

"Draco um, is he alright?" He asked.

"He's getting better."

"Um the wounds..on his arm....do you uh know if they were self inflicted..?"

I sighed and held my head low "Yes Ron, they were. Please don't tell anyone he would be crushed. I'm trying to help him. He's one of my best friends after all."

"Oh, well I understand that. How did you even decide to be friendly though?"

"I saw him in the bathroom one day cutting." I lied, Ron didn't see Draco puke so he didn't have to know about the eating disorder to.

"Oh and that's when it all began?" He asked.

"Pretty much." I said.

"Well uh you can tell him that I'm sorry and maybe you were right, maybe he has changed. I'm willing to give him a chance." He said.

I smilied, "You mean that?" I asked.

He nodded.

"Great! Yeah I'll make sure he knows. Thank you for trying Ron." I said.

Draco's POV

I don't even understand why I still have to be in this stupid infirmary room. I'm fine now, why can't Madam Pomfrey just release me.

I hate it when Harry comes to see me. I'm broken and he's trying to fix me. But I know it's impossible. I really just wish he would forget about me. I have to make him forget about me. I have to leave.

I stood up weakly and looked around the room to check for Madam Pomfrey. I didn't see her so I continued to walk away weakly. I wouldn't get very far like this. I have to fly but could I even fly in this condition?

Well we're about to find out. "Accio Nimbus 2001." Only moments later my broomstick appeared in the doorway. I hopped on and it was painful but I could manage.
