So young, So damaged

Draco's POV

It's been about a month since Juni's horrid start of the school year, she's been getting better but I can tell somethings bothering her.

She's been trying to talk to her cousin Elara but little girl kept running away. Juni hasn't told her parents that she found out she has a cousin yet, I think she's scared of telling them.

The night she told us that Elara was her cousin she also told us what that cunt McLaggen did to her. I was the only one sober enough to remember that she told us, but I already knew from what she's mentioned to me.

On the topic of McLaggen, though he wasn't allowed to play this year, I was allowed to. Tryouts started the second week of school which gave me enough time to heal after ruining McLaggen. I got the seeker position, Blaise is chaser, and Theo a keeper.

After weeks of trying to surpass Juni and trying to get on Umbridge's good side, I finally did. Though, Juni did help a little bit.

We didn't want to get detention during DADA because of Umbridge's punishments, they were cruel. I'm not a softy but she even punished the first years, little fucking children.

I praise the Weasley twins for helping those who were hurt by that wicked teacher, and this will be the only time I say something nice about them. Though, their Skiving Snack Boxes were smart.

"Where's everyone headed to?" Pansy asked Juni as us and many other students and teachers gathered around too.

"Court yard, Umbridge is dismissing Trelawney"

The past few weeks Umbridge has been 'taking over' for Dumbledore, she wasn't doing very good at it but the group and I stayed smiling.

A few weeks back Umbridge told us that Cornelius Fudge, the Minister, wants to take immediate action to make Hogwarts a 'better achool'. Merlin, I don't know why but I have been liking and disliking their rules.

Only my group was benefitting from it, but with more and more proclamations being bolted into the stone walls. The more rules we had to follow meant we had to be our best in DADA, which was tiring.

The pink witch has been going from class to class asking and criticizing teachers on their work, she even measured Professor Flitwick.

I shoved passed a few students to get a good view and same with the rest of the group. For a while our divinations teacher was crying, begging Umbridge asking her if she can stay at Hogwarts.

I was tired of being around so many people, I had to get away from the crowds of students so I left to head into the common room without telling the group.

"Umbridge is a feisty one, ain't she?" Blaise said as the group headed to the couch were I was sitting
"Maybe i'm into older women"

"That's disgusting Blaise, all you're going to get is a dusty pussy" Pansy laughed and so did the others as they all sat around me.

"Why'd you leave Draco?" Juni questioned with her legs resting on top of Theo and Blaises legs.

"Tired"

"Hmm okay, has anyone seen Elara?" she asked the group.

"Smiley, you have to give her time" Theo said as he playfully punched her shoulder.

"It's been a fucking month! How much longer am I supposed to wait?" She raised her voice which made everyone freeze in their places. I could tell that her cousin not wanting to sort things out with her was bothering very badly.
