Snape's Daughter {Draco Malfoy~Ron Weasley}

chapter 14: rumours

TW: MENTION OF CHILD ABUSE PLEASE DONT READ IF THIS IS A SENSITIVE TOPIC FOR YOU IT MAY BE TRIGGERING

Mia couldnt focus for the rest of the day. Her first lesson kept replaying over and over again in her mind, Dracos Boggart was his father. While everyone elses fears were deemed as normal, such as Rons being a spider because if someone says that spiders dont make them even the tinyest bit uncomfatble then they are lieing. However roumers and wispers started to form about dracos boggart and what caused it to become his father. Many people belive that his boggart was only his father because he stated that his father would hear about the lesson just befor he faced the boggart to try and intimidate lupin and instill fear in him, therefore the boggart changed into his father. Other theories that people had suggested were to dark and blood curdling for mia to think about. As much as mia wished for the first scenario to be the truth behind what realy happened, she couldnt help but think that the situation was allot worse than she feared.

"Hey mia...earth to mia, is anyone home?" Cedric said waving his hand in front of mias face as tye hufflepuff dinner table. "Erm yeah sorry," answered mia, turning her attention back to cedric, "I was just thinking."
"Yeah well you have been thinking off in your own little world for forever now, so whats up?" mia looked thoughtfully at cedic deciding weather or not to tell him whats realy on her mind, "its nothing," mia said unconvincingly, as cedic gave her a suspicious look; as much as he wanted go know what was on her mind he diddnt want to push her limits and invade her privacy.  "Okay, whatever you say," cedic said with a smike gesturing from mia to eat something witch she obliged, or she did for a brief couple of minutes, "draco wasnt in any of his lessons after what happened with the boggart, I have the same lessons as him today and he isnt hear at dinner yet all of his, his minions are hear! I don't know, I'm just worried..." mia trailed off uncertainty. Cedic gave her a knowing look, "god your such a hufflepuff!" He joked, "but seriously he is okay dont worry you are probably just over thinking things relax." Cedic said giving mia a comforting pat on her shoulder.  "Yeah, fine." Mia muttered. Cedric laughed off her comment and continued to eat his dinner, mia however started to wonder once more in her mind...

other rumours that cerculated about dacos boggart were cenrtalised arround dracos home life. Many people belived that draco was a vicm of child abuse, ether mental, physical or both. Many people assumed that lusius malfoy was very emotionally manipulative and twisted dracos morrals to be the same as his own and programed him so that if his oppinion differed to lusius then it was wrong. This could be why draco does everything his father wants him to without hesitation because he has a deep rooted fear of failure,  and theface of faliure in is mind is his father, in a way the mental manipulation and phycalogical twisting could be more likely than him beeing physically abused. But then again have you ever noticed that whenever draco is near his father and he makes a fast movment draco flinches? Mia first noticed this at the begging of last year when she was staying with tazzy and they went to flurish and blotts to get there books from lockhart she noticed a stand off between the weasleys and malfoys and when lusius injected himself in dracos buisness, draco flinched. It was small but mia noticed it, and from then on she was always wary of dracos father... But then again everything that was spiraling around school were just rumours and could of been spread by anyone including someone who hates draco and wants to ruien his reputation, or alternatively it could be from someone who is close to draco and acctualy knows what happens at his home.

"Mia you have drifted of into your dreams again, Mia!" Mia violently snapped out of her day dream, "oh erm sorry cedric, I was just thinking again..." mia mumbled still not realy paying attention to cedric as her thoughts still cept a tight grip on her "thinking about what, draco?" Cedric asked contemplatively, "No," mia scoffed, before pausing and then ammending, "yeah." she muttered. Cedic rolled his eyes before mia started to speek once more, "you know what?" Stated mia, "what?" Cedic say in a playfull (fake) shocked voice witch earned a small laugh and smile from mia before she continued, "I'm going to bed."
"Why?"
"Im tired."
"Yeah you totaly arent going to find draco or anything are you,"
"Nope im going to sleep," mia lied, "obviously," cedic giggled, "well I'm covering for another one of the prefects for the rounds tonight so if you just so happen to be out of bed for a completely random reason thats 100% unrlated to a certain slytherin, I'll let you off and pretend I never saw you, okay?"
"You're the best cedic," mia said wrapping her arms arround cedric, giving him a warm bare hug, "yes I know... also I kind of need to keep breathing to stay alive sooo?" Cedic said in a overly dramatic voice, "right sorry," mia released him from te hug, "im going now,"
"Okay go then," cedric gave her a dissmissive wave of his arm signaling for her to leave witch she did with a face of determination. Now where would draco malfoy go to be left alone?

A/N: okay so:
1) I know this is short dont come from me it's a filler for thd next chapter witch will be kinda sad but at the same time kinda heartwarming so you know
2) is it cannon that draco was abused? no but do I listen to JKR nope but personaly I dont think he was physically abused but more mentality causing him to make the wrong choices. Because draco wasnt the boy who had no choice, he is the boy who made the WRONG choice
3) anyway hope you are likeing the story so far and please vote and comment becasue it helps thestory reach more people
