The Sad Truth

If you cant do the time dont do the crime

Our hands were still interlocked as we shook them, as cliché as it sounds we were just staring at one another smiling like little kids.

"Lilian!" my dad yelled bursting through the doors. He stopped and breathed heavily. Noticing we aren't the only in the room he clears his throat "Ms. Evans its good to know you are recovering well" I just nodded my head "Mr. Malfoy you should be in your room, its past curfew, but seeing that you were the one that saved Ms. Evans Ill allow it" he says looking at our hands causing me to quickly let go of Draco's.

Draco stood up quickly "w-well it is late and I have class in the morning" he says dusting off his robe "if you don't need me I'll be on my way" he says walking to the door.

"Hold on Mr. Malfoy" says my dad "I spoke to a certain hufflepuff and he says you were picking on people all morning, I expected better, you will join the Weasley Twins for detention with Hagrid tonight, they are expecting you" he finishes.

Draco tsk "why do I have to join those Weasels" he says mad, I glared at him for dissing my best friends he sees my glare and sighs "ugh I agreed to be your friend not theirs" he says. I crossed my arms around my chest and scoffed "your so infuriating, I'll try to act civil, happy?" he growled out. I smiled as he walked out mumbling about how stupid this all was.

I was soon embraced by my dads arms and I hugged him back "I was so scared, I thought you would have left me too" he says hugging me tighter. "I can't bare to lose you, you're the only good thing I have left, please don't be a hero next time"

I laughed at what he said "I'm not being a hero dad, I just do for others what I want done to myself. If I hadn't helped people no one would have tried their best to help me" I gleamed at him and he smiled fondly.

"You're just like your mother" he says ruffling my hair "you even have her eyes" he says trying to remember her.

I looked at him curiously "dad, when am I going to know about her? I don't even know her name, all you say is "you look like her" but that doesn't stop my curiosity"

He looked down sadly at me "I know you want answers but I can't give them to you yet I'm sorry but you'll get them eventually" he smiles at me.

I just nod at him smiling sadly. "So, what's my detention sentence?" I ask him trying to lighten up the mood.

He smiles then smirks "I paired Malfoy with the twins and with Hagrid because he'd hate it, but with you that'll be a fun time, so I had planned that as detention you'd have to polish all the silverware in the kitchen" he says triumphantly. That's not bad I think to myself as he gets up "you'll also have to do three sections of Statistics from a muggle text book I borrowed from an old friend" he looks through his book bag and pulls out a text book and hands it to me.

"Ugh, but dad I hate math" I groan wanting to cry.

He flicked my forehead "I know, detention isn't suppose to be fun, I want that section to be done in two days. By that time you are cleared to leave the infirmary" I just nodded and tossed the book to the side chair. He kissed my forehead "I'm sorry but I must go it's time for my rounds, I'll stop by and see you around this time for the next two day" he says walking off.

Two Days Later

These two days took forever! This damn math book didn't give me any relaxing time. The only time I managed to understand the deviled book was when Hermione stopped by to help me. Fred and George Told Me about their night filled pranking with Draco and Hagrid as victims. Ron and Harry would come together and talk about their day at hogsmead and the discovery of Harry's godfather. Draco would stop by with cookies; they were always neatly put in a Slytherin themed box and we would talk, not argue, but actually talk.

I'm headed to my Defense Against Dark Arts class, I have a cast on since my ankle its still broken and will stay that way for a couple more days. I walked into class and sat down next to Hermione. "What did I miss?" I asked her.

She smiled "not much we just had to write a paper on werewolves, curtesy of Professor Snape. He seemed on edge the last two days, I wonder what that's all about" she wonders to herself.

Starting to get nervous I chuckled "haha he was probably tired or something" I said and she nodded not believing me. I looked away and tried to focus on today's subject, since I was on medication my head felt drowsy. The last thing I could remember was Professor Lupin saying we have a lesson on Bogarts tomorrow before I fell asleep.

"Hey wake up" someone said nudging my shoulders "really, you're going to make us both late for our class" they nudged even harder. They kept shaking me and I reflexively smacked them in the face "ouch, what's wrong with you? You even fight me in your sleep" they exclaimed. I snuggled into my arms and started to sleep again until I felt something cold.

I gasped and quickly got up "what in the bloody hell is wrong with you!" I yell at him fuming. He smirks and looks at my shirt. I look at him confused and put my hands on my hips "what's so funny, take that smirk off your face" I say to him. He chuckled and points at my shirt I look down and my green bra was on display. I gasped and covered myself with my robe.

"I didn't know you were a devoted Slytherin lovely" I blushed out of embarrassment and grabbed my books and got up.

"Ms. Evans and Mr. Malfoy, you have a knack for being late. Quickly go to your next class or would you rather have another detention" says my dad, we both look down and shake our heads no. "And Ms. Evans they are expecting you in the kitchen after all your classes" I nodded and he hands me a piece of paper "go change, it's a note saying there was an accident" he says walking to the podium to get ready for his class.
