Harry sat on the very edge of the bed if he moved down any further he would've fallen right off, he was looking rather tense and worried, understandable considering how I've spoken to him in the past.
"whats wrong with me?" I asked tears beginning to well up in my eyes.
I was so unbelievably confused recently, my temper was fragile, my skin burnt, and I hadn't slept peacefully in a long while. It was evident I was having these issues too just by how I looked when I looked in the mirror (which was proving itself difficult in recent times) my reflection was paler than before with black rings that framed my sad eyes, I just overall looked drained. In fact, passing out was probably was the best nap I had in a while.
"what's been happening to make you feel like there is anything wrong?" he questioned. I debated on if I should tell the craggy lanky boy but then came to the realisation he's seen and heard of much worse things than a girl's nightmares.
"I can't sleep" I sighed "I'd love to but I'm scared to even try. Every time I close my eyes I see a flash of green, and I can hear screams not just any screams ones in true agonizing pain, and I can't shut them up. Sometimes hear this voice too, it rather whispery, but despite the low volume its very harsh. It kind of sounds like if a snake got a voice and I know that sounds so stupid" I rolled my eyes
"it doesn't" the boy who lived promised "how did you faint?" he pressed for more information and this time found himself closer to me on the bed, he was no longer on the verge of falling off, he seemed comfortable.
"I don't know exactly but when Draco held onto me, I think it was more when he kissed me, I saw that same green flash, and an unbelievable pain went through me. When I looked back at him I couldn't see him well I could but it wasn't my Draco, this one had uncaring dead eyes. Then my skin was burning, it felt like a thousand fires were spreading across my skin. That's all I can remember".
I don't think I could tolerate Harry more than I did at this moment, his green eyes looked at me with complete understanding, and his tanned warm hand rested on my leg as a sense of security.
I think even for him he felt heard for once.
"I've been having the same kind of visions, I've had them for a while but they are the most prominent when danger is on its way. Maybe you should come to talk with Ron, Hermione and I, we can decipher what you've been seeing it might be useful" I looked down at my hands when he said this, surely my dreams cant be on par with the chosen one they were nothing but dreams.
Harry has seen a lot and I've just lived my life ignoring the dangers on the outside world growing up with each school year, it hasn't been that easy for him.
The golden boy put his hand on mine knocking me out of my train of thought, I looked at him and he just smiled "it's all okay" he swore.
"hope I'm not interrupting anything" a voice came from the entrance
"Draco!" I smiled wildly trying to get up to greet him but my sore limbs said otherwise.Both boys shot grim looks at one another, like two wolves ready to fight for the title of alpha.
"I best be going" Harry huffed standing up from his sitting position
"yeh, that would be for best" Draco retorted. Harry was about to say something else but stopped to his own frustration, and stalked out.
Draco flung a bouquet of flowers on the bedside table next to me with no care, and I gulped in fear as I stood with crossed his arms looking anywhere but where I lay."you ok?" I asked in confusion
"maybe you should ask potter" he huffed and the pieces fit together, I let out a sigh of a laugh and Draco darted his eyes towards me
"Dumbledore told him to come and check on me. They think the whole situation is odd" I explained "I don't see why though I just fainted" I lied. Dracos features softened and he turned his whole attention to me "maybe you should be asking me if I'm ok though"I commented
"I've seen you with him a lot recently Thea, he's beaten me at everything in life and-" "and I'm not a game Draco, he checked on me that's it" I interrupted getting quite obviously annoyed.I was in the hospital wing after I fainted right in front of his eye and he was making it about competition between two rivals. Not the most sensitive approach.
"I can't even touch you" Draco croaked "I can't even touch you without you being in pain, I'm so poisonous. I just want to kiss you all over hold you tight, but I bring so much harm" he admitted his true insecurities
"I'm not glass, I'm not a flower you can crush, and you're not poisonous. I'm a girl that wants your love and you're a boy whos scared to give it" I spoke in such a soft tone to calm the boy down "you did nothing wrong Draco, it happens to people all the time it could just be a lack of sleep or dehydration literally anything that isn't you" I held out my hand he looked at it then decided to ignore it, the rejection of his touch stung a bit more than I lead on but I couldn't force anything "don't be afraid Draco, be brave".
