I didn't choose this- (A DRAMIONE/BLINNY FANFIC)

8 - THE BATHROOM

HERMIONE'S POV

Wiping my mouth I walk out of the toilet stall and over to the basin to wash my face, I have no idea why I got sick- I mean I never get sick- only when I finally looked up to see the whiteness of my face I saw something glimmer and twitch in the mirror. Pulling my wand from my robes I slowly walk over to the object, only to find a blonde haired boy withering in a ball of pain.

“Malfoy?” I whisper not sure of myself… Nothing

“Malfoy?” I question again creeping closer ‘well at least I know he’s still alive’ I think as I kneel next to the shivering boy’s side, he’s head buried in between is knees. Hesitantly I reach my hand out and tap I’m on the shoulder.

“Agh” I groan “Come on Malfoy this isn’t funny anymore get up” I shove him lightly make him fall onto his back. I gasp at the site I see; he’s skin is pale- well more pale the usual-, he has dark bags under his eyes that I didn’t notice on the train, it makes him look like he has aged 4 years within the time period of 2 hours… He looks… sick.

I once again reach my hand out again, though this time isn’t to shake him, my hand goes towards his forehead and I rest my palm on it only to pull back straight away at his unnaturally high temperature he has.

I slowly manoeuvre my way around him and gently lay him down so he is flat on his back, that’s when I noticed it.

Blood.

Slightly watered down blood?

On the floor.

Immediately I look around trying to see if there is anymore, when I see a red patch on Malfoy’s once crisp and clean white shirt. Without thinking I start to unbutton his shirt to attend the wound right away. Once his shirt was out of the way I started frantically searching for the wound, running my fingers over his chest, sides and stomach. But find nothing. Picking up the discarded shirt I hastily search it to find the blood stain again; though as I know look at it more closely I see its shape somewhat resembles a hand.

A hand?

A hand!

I finally realise that it’s his hand that is injured, but when I search both his hands all I find is tried up blood…

Oh no please don’t tell me you did something

I look up at his face confused. What did you do Malfoy?

Then I finally remember where I am… In a bathroom

If this is the girl’s bathroom then why is Malfoy in here? Then it hit me, I didn’t check which bathroom I went into, I look around a bit scared of what I might find… the whole bathroom is the exact opposite to the girl’s bathroom; the stalls are where the basins are supposed to be and visa-versa, but there's something extra...

“Oh shit. I ran into the boy’s bathroom” I groan looking at surroundings again “Shit! What if someone comes in” I think, just as I did I heard the door open and slam shut again

“Oi Draco? You in here mate, dinners already over; everyone’s heading back to their common rooms and we need to go to McGonagall’s office in 10” said I voice I noticed, starting to freak out I see what this would look like if someone saw me in here with Malfoy laying in a small pool of blood. Thinking fast I pick up my wand and cast I disillusion spell over both Malfoy and I, along with a silencing spell around us. I hear footsteps getting louder and soon none other than Blaise Zabini walks into view before he looks around the bathroom and walks out.

Breathing out a sigh of relief I wait 60 seconds before removing the spells I had not long cast.

Knowing I have to do something and move him out of the bathroom so I can get o McGonagall’s on time I decide it’s just best if I levitate him to the Hospital wing so Madame Pomfrey can get him out of my hair. I recast the disillusion spell- this time on him only- and slowly levitate him in the air before walking to the bathroom, I open the door slightly to check no one is coming and once the coast is clear I quickly step out with Malfoy, raising him higher into the air. Raising the hand that has my wand up to beside my face, elbow bent; I bring my other arm across my abdomen with my hand holding the opposite elbow, making it look like I’m in deep thought so it is less sus.

Once I make it to the hospital wing I poke my head in seeing if anyone was in looking around I see that the only person in is Madame Pomfrey  again removing the spell I walk in, catching her eye

“Oh dearie what happened to you are you okay? Where are you hurt?”

“Hurt?” I question

“Yes dear you are in the hospital wing, that and your shirt has blood on it”

Looking down I see that she is right, I do have blood, I have random specks of blood on my shirt, as well as my skirt and white socks.  ‘How in the hell did I manage that?’ I question myself, thinking back to the bathroom; when my thoughts are interrupted- “Dear you sure you’re alight?”

“Oh right… yes I’m fine it’s actually him that needs the help” Bringing Malfoy in the door and pointing up to him

“Oh? What Happened?”

“I don’t know I tried looking over him to find anything but I couldn’t, can you just take him? I need to go to Professor McGonagall’s and I’m already late” I say slightly irritated

“Oh yes dear, off you go don’t want to keep her waiting, just put him on that bed and you can go" she said pointing to the bed in front of me

“Oh and Miss Granger?” she called out to me as I was going out the door

“Yes?”

“I suggest that you change into something less… Bloody before you go see McGonagall”

“Uhhh yes that would be a smart idea wouldn’t it?” I asked; getting a small nod in response “There’s some spare clothes in that cupboard, just bring them back tomorrow” she said after pointing her finger toward a cupboard at the opposite side of the room while she attended to Malfoy. Once I changed I ran as fast as I could to the Headmistresses office

“Oh brother, this is going to be fun to explain why I’m late” I mumble to myself making my legs pump harder

‘I’m 30 minutes late’
