Soulmates (Harry x Draco)

Chapter 14: The Aftermath Of The Plan

    *In the great hall* Severus perspective:
I have the worst hangover headache ever. I haven't had a hangover this bad since I was in my teens. I've already snapped at all of my fellow teachers, and they all are giving me insane looks because I'm normally more civil towards them. "Severus here is a hangover potion." Said Madam Pomfrey. "Thank you so much Poppy, how did you know?" "Severus, my son I was the one that gave you and James hangover potions after every party," She said with a serious look. "Thank you again Poppy. You're like a mum to me." I said blushing slightly. "Severus you had better stop blushing or someone will think that you are sick or in love." Madam Pomfrey said. "Poppy you know I could never be in love again." I said sadly. "I know love, I'm sorry." Madam Pomfrey said while hugging Severus. "Poppy we had better stop the students are giving us strange looks." I said laughing trying to conceal my tears. " Of course, see you later Severus." Said Madam Pomfrey. "Bye mom." Severus whispered. 

    Blaise Zabini Perspective:
When I walked into the great hall this morning I knew something wasn't right. For one thing I saw Madam Pomfrey and Professor Sanpe talking, and then Professor Snape blushed. Madam Pomfrey then gave him a hug, and he looked like he had tears in his eyes, but he was laughing. I didn't know what to think, so I just sat down and started inspecting the breakfast items. After finding all of my food, I looked around the hall in search of Harry and Draco. I wanted to talk to them, asking if I could be in their group, and be their friend. When I couldn't see Draco and Harry I remembered that they might still be in the hospital wing. Abandoning my half eaten food I started making my way up to the hospital wing.

I reached the hospital wing slightly out of breath. "Mr. Zabini, what do I owe the pleasure?" Said Madam Pomfrey with slight disgust thinking that someone got in a fight so early in the morning. "I was wondering if I could see Draco and Harry?" I said after I caught my breath. "They aren't here right now. * A couple seconds later * Wait was Draco not at breakfast." Said Madam Pomfrey worriedly. "No, that's why I was wondering if he was here, he never misses breakfast. It is the most important meal of the day, he says." "Oh shit." Madam Pomfrey says. "What's the matter Madam Pomfrey?" I know it is not like Draco to miss breakfast, but that can't be a reason to worry, right?" I said with slight concern on my face. "It is probably nothing, Mr. Zabini, but just in case can you lead me to Mr. Malfoy's dorm room." Said Madam Pomfrey. "Of course Madam Pomfrey, I would also like to know if Draco is ok." I said. "Lead the way Mr. Zabini." Said Madam Pomfrey.

Once we reached the slytherin tapestry, I spoke the password in a hushed tone just in case me walking with Madam Pomfrey drew some unwanted attention. " Sly, sly slytherin." I said with a slight beat in my words. Madam Pomfrey gave me a strange look at the new password, but continued into the slytherin common room nonetheless. "Just this way" I said leading Madam Pomfrey down a dark hallway to the seventh year  and returning students separate dorm rooms. " I pointed to Draco and Harry's room, and said, " you had better go in first Madam Pomfrey, Draco doesn't normally like guests." Madam Pomfrey checked the door to see if there were any spells on the door to keep intruders out of Draco's room. The door exploded in so many colours I thought that I was going to pass out. "Why is it so colourful Madam Pomfrey?" I asked slightly dizzy. "Every different colour is a different spell, some probably to keep people out others to let people in." Said Madam Pomfrey with satisfaction in her voice. "So can we get in or will we get hurt." I said hoping it wasn't the case. "I'm sure that Mr. Malfoy will not have it set for me to get hurt, I'm only the school nurse." Madam Pomfrey said in a quiet voice. Madam Pomfrey and Blaise stepped into Draco and Harry's room.
*In Draco Malfoy and Harry Potter's Chambers*
  "Wow it's a mess in here." I said while looking at the contents of Draco's trunk all over the floor. "I'm assuming that Mr. Malfoy is normally much cleaner." Said Madam Pomfrey with a slight look of disgust at the partially open shampoo bottle dripping into what looks like a midnight blue men's thong. "Yeah I've never seen Draco as much as use the wrong fork with dinner, he is very clean and proper." I said still looking at the contents spewed all over the floor. "It looks like he was looking for something in a rush." I said, "Yeah and I think I know what." Madam Pomfrey said as she picked up a bottle on empty muggle booze called Whiskey. I walked over to Draco's bed to pull back the curtains to see if Draco had just passed out. When I pulled back the curtains I saw that Draco's bed was neatly made with three pillows on top and a little stuffed purple and black dragon. "He's not here." I said looking over at Madam Pomfrey with a worried look. After my eyes met with Madam Pomfrey I looked down, and I saw something red on the ground. "Madam Pomfrey what's that on the floor near your foot." I said with slight wonder in my voice. "I could tell you what that was anywhere, it is blood." Said Madam Pomfrey worriedly. "Look it leading into the bathroom, let's investigate," I said.

As we were walking to the bathroom a shiver ran through me, one that you would get when approaching death. As Madam Pomfrey began to open the bathroom door I said, "what if he's just using the bathroom and doesn't want to be bothered?" "Then I shall take the blame and just say I was looking for Mr. Potter." Madam Pomfrey said with an indignant voice knowing that Harry was definitely not in the bathroom. I opened the door hoping to see Draco with his pale bony feet sticking out of bubbly water having a bath. Instead, I saw Draco lying in the tub covered in blood and unconscious. I let out a small gasp and grabbed onto Madam Pomfrey's hand out of instinct. As I gasped Madam Pomfrey looked over and gasped too, she ran over and checked for a pulse. "Mr. Zabini, he has a weak pulse and is barely alive, I need to get him to the hospital wing immediately." Said Madam Pomfrey in a panicked voice. "Can you please help me clear the halls, and get Professor Snape to meet me in the hospital wing." Said Madam Pomfrey. Ofcourse, I'm on it. I said and ran out.

    Madam Pomfrey picked up Draco gently and ran out of the slytherin common room down the halls towards the hospital wing screaming "get out of the way idiots," at anyone who was in the hall. Everyone moved out of the way with annoyed looks in their eyes until they saw Draco Malfoy bleeding heavily from the arms. Once Madam Pomfrey reached the hospital wing, professor Snape and Blaise were waiting for them. " What the hell happened." Snape yelled as he rushed over to help put Draco in a hospital bed. "I have no idea Severus, we just found him like this and brought him up." Said Madam Pomfrey. "Blaise, you should get out of here, you don't want to watch this." Madam Pomfrey said trying to give the poor boy some comfort. "No it's fine Madam Pomfrey, I don't think I could even think about concentrating for school work until I know if Draco is ok." Blaise said in a quiet voice. "Ok love, just stay out of the way." Madam Pomfrey said to Blaise. "Poppy look at all these cuts." Snape said as he inspected Draco's arms that were littered with small and large, fresh and old cut of what looked like to be from the origin of a fancy muggle knife. "Severus we do not have time for this right now, help me administer these potions to help keep your godson alive." Madam Pomfrey practically screamed. "Ok Poppy I'm on it, here you go," as he handed her many different sized potions labeled "blood clotters for youth," "stitch up that cut in one go" and the most important a blood replenishing potion called, "the vampires best friend." "Now what," Snape said after all of the potions were administered and Draco had stopped bleeding. "Now we wait to see if he wakes up." Madam Pomfrey said in a low voice.

Thank you all for your amazing patience, I hope you enjoy the update. I will try to update sooner, but I would like to work on my other book Just Jakob.
