FILTHY ~ Drarry Fanfic

Chapter 45

As I stitch her forehead, she looks at me, gratefully. I furrow my brow and ask "Lucius?"

She gives me a knowing look and I nod, before cleaning the blood from her wound "He saw I had photos of you... told me to get out. Said, if he ever saw me again, he'd kill me."

I give an emotionless hum, before remarking "Any thoughts on your next summer home?"

"Draco?" Harry asks. When I look to him, he motions to the hallway.

I follow him out, before he turns to me and declares "She's got nowhere else to go. She's still in her nighttime robes, and she's not even wearing shoes."

I glance back in to find she's not wearing shoes. I furrow my brow and tell him "I don't want her here!"

He crosses his arms and reminds me "She's your mother, Draco! She loves you!"

I take in a deep breath, before asking "Does she?"

He scowls at me, before telling me "You're acting like a child!"

I look down to my feet, before nodding and stepping back into the dining room. As I pack up my belongings, I don't even look to her "You can sleep in my room. Borrow my clothes until you get the chance to get your own. Clean yourself up."

And with that, I grab my bag and walk off.

That night, I lay on the opposite side of the bed from Harry. After a long moment, I ask "Why didn't you tell me before?"

He takes in a deep breath, before declaring "I didn't know until Halloween."

"I wasn't talking about Thomas." I tell him and he's silent for a moment "I'm not talking about Thomas."

"Oh?" He asks, before propping himself up "What are you talking about, then?"

With a sigh, I turn to face him, before asking "Why didn't you say something about liking me, before I started dating him?"

He holds his hand out to move the hair out of my face, before declaring "Love, not like." He shrugs, before declaring "Loving someone is when you wish to see them happy and healthy, even if it's not with you. You'd swallow the pain of seeing them with someone else, because it's their happiness before your own."

I furrow my brow and move his hand away. I can see the hurt on his face as I do.

As anger bubbles in me, I ask "Was I happy and healthy when I was living in a car?"

He starts to say something, but I cut him off "Nevermind! Forget it!" And with that, I roll over and fall asleep.

The next day at work, I tap on the counter of the nurse's station, filling out my paperwork.

Jackie looks to up and asks someone "How may I help you, dear?"

I feel a hand on my back and look over to find Harry and Narcissa "We're just bringing lunch to our favorite doctor."

Jackie looks to Narcissa "I don't think I've met you before?"

I take in a deep breath, before sighing "That's my mother." Jackie looks to me instantly, only I glance up to Narcissa to find most of her injuries are covered with makeup "Why, Narcissa, I believe you possess much more skill with a makeup brush, than stuffing it down your throat."

She scoffs, before Jackie asks "Are you two on speaking terms."

I take in a deep breath, before declaring "I'm a sucker for abused animals."

My beeper goes off and I hand my clipboard to Jackie, before looking at it.

I back up and declare "I'm needed in the OR."

Later that night, as we sit down to dinner, Harry asks "How was work?"

I sigh, before moving the hair out of my face "Some people just shouldn't be allowed to use knives."

Harry nods, before asking "Dud you figure out what you're going to do... about Thom-"

I glare up at him and he nods, before looking down. I take a moment, before declaring "I'll message him, later. Tell him it's over."

Ginny furrows her brow and asks "Why are you dumping Thomas?"

I look to Teddy and ask "Pass the rolls, please."

He does and I tear one apart, before my mobile buzzes. Without even looking at it, I pick it up "You've reached Doctor Draco Malfoy, who am I spe-"

"He knows!" Michael speaks in panicked breaths "He dropped me off at my dorm, and saw the condom wrapper on the table! You know, the stupid donkey condoms?"

I bat my eyes, trying to understand, before he continues "He's on his way to your place! He'll be there in about an hour!"

Harry furrows his brow and whispers "What is it?"

I can't seem to force words out. Michael finally cries out "What are you going to do?"

A million thoughts run through my head, but I can't help but smile at the thought of my unknown revenge. After a moment, I speak emotionlessly "I've gotta go."

As I hang up, I look to Ginny and Narcissa "Well, I do believe Teddy deserves something sweet. Perhaps a trip down the street to the ice cream tavern? Get him a big sundae."

Narcissa understands, immediately, that I don't want Teddy to see what's about to happen. She gives a weak smile, before I look to Harry "Prehaps you better go with them?"

He shakes his head, instantly "I will stay here, with you. We both know what he's capable of."

I hum, before looking to Teddy and ordering "Finish your supper."

After everyone is finished eating, I help mother with the dishes, in complete silence.

After the dishes are put away, I grab Teddy's sweater and help him into it. He looks to me in concern and I smile "Your father and I will be just fine."

He looks to Harry, before asking "What's going to happen?"

I shake my head and tell him "I don't know, yet."

He nods, before looking me over. After a long moment, he wraps his arms around me and I glance to Harry, who smiles, before resting my hands on his back.

After a long moment, he pulls away and smiles "We'll bring you back a spotted dick."

I nod, before Ginny walks him through the door. When they're gone, Harry remarks "That's what got you in this situation in the first place."
