An apple a day

Chapter 1

-Draco's POV-

I wake up and I realise I missed breakfast at the great hall but, to be honest, I probably wouldn't have gone anyways. I get dressed and decide to look in the mirror. I notice that you can see my ribs more, but father always says an apple a day gives the body all it needs. I throw on a baggy green sweater and my Slytherin scarf. I walk to my class where I see Harry and his friends standing outside the room. I didn't want to have to deal with them today, so I just ignored them. "Where were you at breakfast Draco? You know it's required to be there", Hermoine says with her usual attitude."If it's any of your concern i slept in, leave me alone mug blood," I say rolling my eyes and walking into class.

I zone out all class long which draws the attention of Harry, maybe it's cause for the past four years I've said something rude every day but I just don't feel like it. The next thing I know it's lunchtime already I realise since I've already missed breakfast people would notice if I didn't show up. I walk in and get a few stares from some other students but I just walk over to my table. "Draco! I haven't seen you all morning", Pansy says "oh yeah i slept through my alarms this morning", I say and she nods and starts eating. I slowly eat my apple making sure every bite is chewed at least twelve times but I can't help feeling Harry's eyes watching me. "Wanna walk to potions class with me Draco?" Pansy asks and I just nod and give her a small smile. We don't talk on the way there, so we just take our seats.

I feel someone tap on my shoulder which causes me to jump. The whole class moves their eyes towards me and I notice Pansy tear up "sorry i was deep in thought, you didn't do anything wrong" i say giving her a smile in hopes she won't cry "okay, are you okay? You've seemed off all day" she asks "yeah just tired, I was up all night studying" i say and she nods and goes back to writing notes. The class ends and I get up to leave but Professor Snape stops me. "Draco stays behind for a second," he says and I nod and walk over to him. "You look thin and pale, are you feeling alright?" he asks "oh yes sir I'm just feeling under the weather!" I smile, he nods and lets me go.

I'm walking down the hall when I suddenly fall and twist my ankle "Bloody hell!" I curse out. I see Harry come over to me, "Oh my, are you okay?" he asks as he picks up my books "Im fine." I say, glaring at him as I shove him out of my way. I walk a few steps and the pain in my ankle gets worse and worse and I fall to the ground once more. "Ron help me take Draco to the nurse" Harry yells over to Ron and he sighs and comes over. They walk me over to the nurse as Hermione follows behind us holding my books. "What seems to be the problem?" the nurse asks "Nothing, I just twisted my ankle," I say staring at the ground. Before I know it she is pulling my pant leg up and I hear them all gasp. "Bloody hell Malfoy, you're about thinner than a twig!" Ron laughs, which causes Hermoine to hit his arm. "You three get to class," she says and they leave "Now Draco, can you state what all you've had to eat today?" the nurse asks "what has this got to do with my ankle?" i ask and she sighs "fine let me weigh you if you won't tell me," she says as she places me on the scale "129, Draco that's far too light for a boy your age!" she says with a stern but worried face "yeah, yeah can you just wrap my ankle so I can leave" I scoff at her and she does.

I walk back to my dorm in hopes of not running into Harry or his friends but of course, he taps on my shoulder "What the hell do you want potter?" I scoff "well I wanted to know if you were okay, I noticed you're still limping and you seem pretty thin." he says "just leave me, alone Potter, you know, nobody fucking asked for your bloody opinion so just stay away from me a freak!" I say, he nods then walks away. When I get to my bed I notice Pansy come to my door "Hey Draco, I heard about your ankle, I brought you an ice pack", she says handing it to me "Thanks Pan", I say as she walks away. As I apply the ice pack to my ankle I wince in pain "fucking hell." I mutter to myself. After a while of just staring up at the roof, I slowly begin to fall asleep in the hopes tomorrow my ankle will feel better.
