6th year

This year was the darkest year I've had. I nearly got killed and almost lost Draco and everyone I loved.

I silently sat on the train to hogwarts while Draco talked about something which I didn't listen to, I was thinking about all that had happened through the last 6 years when suddenly, there was a strange smoke.

"It's fine" Draco said before sitting back down and starting to talk again.

When the train finally stopped, Draco turned to me,

"Wait here, ok Scarlett"

"Yup" I said before walking out with Crabbe and Blaise, then, when the train was just about to leave, Draco came out.

"What took you so long?" I asked "I thought you were going to be going back to London!"

"Don't worry Scarlett" he said putting his hand on my shoulder and walking to the carriages.

"I wonder where Potter is? He's always missing the carriages" I said, "in second year, he flew a car to school! Then, in third year..." I listed out all the ways harry came to school.

"Yeah" was all Draco said, he looked guilty.

"Draco, are you hiding something?" I asked

"Huh? No, why would I?"

"Promise?"

"Promise"

"Your fingers are crossed"

"Oh are they?"

"Yes, don't lie to me"

"I'll tell you later then"

"Draco, Scarlett, come?" Proffessor Snape said, this usually meant trouble.

We walked to a more private corner of the great hall.

"I have appointed you two as the prefects of Slytherin, you got that?"

I was so happy, I turned to Draco but he didn't look as pleased as I expected.

"But professor, I don't really want to be a prefect this year" he said

"No exceptions Malfoy, what's done is done" Snape said before walking away.

"Draco, tell me" I looked sternly at Draco

"It's nothing"

"You promised me"

"Okay, okay, but can we do it somewhere more private please?"

When he said private, I thought as in Slytherin common room, but we went somewhere else.

"We can't go in there, that's the D.A.H.Q" I gasped

"It's actually the room of requirements"

I watched intently as Draco opened the room of requirements.

"What's this?" I asked, the room had a lot of objects in it, but the main thing was something that was covered in a huge sheet.

"Promise me Scarlett, promise me, that you won't tell anyone about this" Draco pleaded, I've never seen him like this.

"About what?"

He then lifted up his sleeve and I gasped, right there, in plain sight, on his arm was the dark mark.

I backed away and whispered, "Draco..."
