Continue Story (I copy and paste from internet) - Chapter 51 - 'SAVE ME'
CHAPTER 51
“Why here?”Draco asked.
“More private, thought i’d spare you from all the people watching,”Tonks said. Draco attempted to say thanks, but it simply wouldnt come out, thank you wasnt in his vocabulary, so he merely nodded. Tonks knelt next to him, holding the wet cloth and she began to clean and dress his wounds. The healing potion must have been a pain reliever as well as a healing potion because it didnt hurt, it actually felt rather soothing. Draco sighed closing his eyes.
“Your a very strong person you know,”Draco said quietly. Tonks blinked, not used to anything un insulting coming from Draco directed towards her.
“Really you think so? Thanks,”Tonks said slowly. She had lost Remus Lupin the love of her life, today and yet she was helping Draco of all people. Draco frowned, he may never understand people. If he had lost someone he’d love he’d barricade himself in his room for months.
“Your strong too Malfoy,”said Tonks.
“Weaker than you think,”Draco said quietly, thinking of what he was going to do to Harry tomorrow. Here the order was helping him, and tomorrow he was going to leave bits and pieces of Harry Potter all over their carpets. A very nice way to repay them. Draco surpressed a groan.
“You are and your not so bad,”Tonks said. Draco laughed.
“Thanks,”said Draco.
“Well you are a little obnoxious,”said Tonks.
“This is a compliment isnt it?”Draco asked with a raised eyebrow.
“I’m trying,”Tonks said with a sulk. Draco laughed. It felt good to laugh.
“There all done.”Tonks said. Draco stood up slowly, Tonks helped.
“Lets get you to your room,”Tonks said. Draco reluctantly excepted her help.
“Healing potion should do its work by morning, you should be back to your poncey self tomorrow.”
“I better be,”Draco said with a smirk. They went in to the room Draco shared with Neville and Draco laid on his stomach in his bed. Tonks stared at him for awhile before walking down the hall. Poor guy. She liked keeping busy it kept her mind off of Remus. She sighed sadly walking into the room where the rest of the order were talking.
“Can you believe this?”McGonagall questioned gravely.
“I never thought. . . man poor Malfoy,”Harry said.
“Is he going to be okay?”Hermione asked with worry.
“Physically he should be fine in a few days,”McGongall said with a heavy sigh.
“He’s an annoying little bugger but not that annoying. You know? Sure sometimes I want to turn him into a toad and throw him a blender but. . .how could anyone do that to their son?”said Ron and he shuddered.
“Oh very nice Ronald, toad and blender,”Hermione snapped.
“You know what I mean! I mean he’s annoying but he’s part of the group now,”Ron said. Hermione sighed and nodded in agreement.
“I know,”she said quietly.
“Poor kid,”Tonks said. Neville walked to the room he shared with Draco, a look of concern on his face. Draco was reading a book laying on his stomach, but his eyes werent moving so Neville knew he wasnt really reading.
“Malfoy,”Neville said gently. Draco’s eyes landed on him. “Is it alright if I talk with out being about to die just this once?” Draco smiled.
“Just this once,”Draco said.
