chapter 16 - his dorm

TW: blood
"hey watch where you're going." i ignore them and keep running, trying to hold back my tears. i feel a cold hand tightly grip my arm. i yelp in pain. "OWW" "mara." its malfoy. great.

"LET GO OF ME!" he lets go and notices his hand is all bloody. "what the fu-" i turn around and start heading towards the hospital wing. i must look like an idiot crying in the middle of a hallway. "HEY. garner. who did this???" he says, raising his voice. "none of your business." "MARA." he grabs my shoulder and spins me around. he's serious. "the hospital wing is too far away, the dorms are closer. i have a first aid kit in my dorm." " i don't need your help." i turn around. i'm already bleeding, i don't wanna be in more pain. "MARA. shut the fuck up you're coming with me. you're arms are fucking messed up. let me help." "why should i??? all you've done is make things worse. what're you gonna do this time? cut my arms off?" he looks down at my red arms. "cut the crap, stop being immature, you NEED HELP." he takes my arm (the top part that's not bleeding, and hurries to the dorm.

we get there and by that time ive stopped crying and calmed down a bit. he practically busts the door open, pushing all the other slytherins out of the way. i put my hand under my arm trying to catch the blood from falling on the carpet. "in here." he opens the door to his dorm, lets me in first, and locks it behind me.

his dorm... this is the first time i'm seeing it. it's big and gloomy. there's nothing much in it but a table, a large bed, a bedside drawer, and a big dresser next to his closet. there's no rug on the ground either, and the windows are covered by thick curtains. jeez, could this place be more creepy? "sit." he says shoving me to his bed. "i'm not your dog." i say. "shut it." he says while turning to his desk. i groan and sit on the edge of his bed. it's a tall, stiff mattress covered by a dark blue duvet cover, although the duvet cover is half on the ground. messy bed. i bet his room would be messier if he had more stuff in it. my arms aren't bleeding as much, only if you touched it would you get it on you. the rest had dried on my arms, creating a thin layer of red over the words carved in.

i nervously kick my legs around and accidentally kick a small box of letters under his bed. oops. i go to pick them up and put them back in the box, when i see they're all directed to 'Lucius Malfoy.' a malfoy? does he have a brother? he doesn't seem like he does. maybe it's his father? "hey. put those back." he takes them from me and shoves them back in the box, and tosses it onto his messy desk. "who's Lucius?" "no one. give me your arm." "someone's in a bad mood." "shut up garner, i'm helping you right now." "i never said you needed to." he sharply exhales and says. "i said give me your arm." i glare at him. so rude. he grips the other side of my arm and yanks it towards him. my head is just over his (i told you it's a tall mattress). his hands are cold as fuck. and so is his room. i shiver. he looks up at me before wiping a wet napkin on my arm. "ow." i say, pulling my arm back. "stop being a baby. i need to clean the wounds." he says as he pulls my arm back towards him. he's focused and serious. i draw my eyes down and notice his hands are full of big silver rings. i carefully study how his hands slowly wipe my arms with the napkin. for someone who's so cold and mean, he's awfully slow and careful at this.

"i think it's clean now" i say. it was hurting and i don't think you need to clean wounds for that long. "are you kidding? i barely cleaned anything. look. your arms are still red with blood." i roll my eyes and turn to look at his wall. it had things pinned to it, messily. there were 2 pictures, one of him and his mother, and one of him with blaise. around them were a bunch of certificates for things. that's sad. doesn't seem like he has a lot of pictures on his wall.

"are you done yet?" i say impatiently, i don't wanna spend anymore time in this place. "garner." he gets close to my face. "no."
