Before
and After the End



Chapter
V



 



style=\'font-family:\"Bodoni MT\"\'> Draco
rolled his eyes as he listened to the girl go on and on.style=\'mso-spacerun:yes\'> He had just gotten here, and already he
wanted to leave. He couldn’t stand Pansy
at that the moment. She was talking
about her summer. Dear sweet, annoying
Pansy, he really wished she was just shut up.
She wasn’t evil really, just annoying, and a little dense.style=\'mso-spacerun:yes\'> Who was he kidding, she was really dense and
okay, little evil.



style=\'font-family:\"Bodoni MT\"\'> He
was currently trying to eat his breakfast and to tune out Pansy, who sat in
front of him.



style=\'font-family:\"Bodoni MT\"\'> On
his right was Blaise and on his left was Goyle while Grabbe next to him, all
three of them quiet, lost in thought, Draco knew that they we aware of what
happened on his birthday. They had given
their support. But he knew that there
was something else going on that no one had told them him yet.



style=\'font-family:\"Bodoni MT\"\'> He
glanced at the staff table and noticed that the Head of his House was not
present. That was unlike his
godfather. He was always there early
eating, before everyone else. Why wasn’t
he here?



style=\'font-family:\"Bodoni MT\"\'> Had
something happened that he wasn’t aware of.



style=\'font-family:\"Bodoni MT\"\'> “Oh,
Drakie darling, have you hear?” she squealed.



style=\'font-family:\"Bodoni MT\"\'> “Don’t
call me that, hear what?” Draco asked.



style=\'font-family:\"Bodoni MT\"\'> “About
Potter?”



style=\'font-family:\"Bodoni MT\"\'> “What
Potter, Pansy?” he snapped.



style=\'font-family:\"Bodoni MT\"\'> She
pouted but continued to talk.



style=\'font-family:\"Bodoni MT\"\'> “The
Golden Boy of Gryffindor is no longer a Gryffindor.style=\'mso-spacerun:yes\'> They kicked him out, but it’s to be
expected,” she laughed.



style=\'font-family:\"Bodoni MT\"\'> Draco
had to raise a fine blond eyebrow at that.
He was kicked out?



style=\'font-family:\"Bodoni MT\"\'> “Why
was he kicked out?”



style=\'font-family:\"Bodoni MT\"\'> “You
haven’t heard, it’s the gossip all around the school, surely you’ve heard by
now?”



style=\'font-family:\"Bodoni MT\"\'> “I
just got here Pansy,” he snapped again.



style=\'font-family:\"Bodoni MT\"\'> “Uh,
but it’ll make you happy to know that the freak is an even bigger freak,” she
giggled.



style=\'font-family:\"Bodoni MT\"\'> Draco
frowned, he never liked the word freak, but he could not for the life of him
figure out why.



style=\'font-family:\"Bodoni MT\"\'> “Pansy,”
Draco warned.



style=\'font-family:\"Bodoni MT\"\'> “Alright,
it seems, Harry Potter is one of those dreadful creatures… the Fey,” she said
with disgust in her voice after an overly dramatic pause.



style=\'font-family:\"Bodoni MT\"\'> “Fey?”
Draco echoed and Pansy nodded.



style=\'font-family:\"Bodoni MT\"\'> It
was then that the other three looked up at Draco.



style=\'font-family:\"Bodoni MT\"\'> Draco
stood quickly, he need to talk to Sev.



style=\'font-family:\"Bodoni MT\"\'> “Oh
well, more to insult him with, I really have to speak with Professor Snape,”
Draco said and walked off, he didn’t need to look back to see that Blaise,
Goyle and Grabbe were following. He
quickly looked at the Gryffindor table and saw Granger and the Weasley girl off
alone ignoring the rest of their house and keeping a watchful eye on the
entrance of the Great Hall.



style=\'font-family:\"Bodoni MT\"\'> style=\'mso-spacerun:yes\'>



style=\'font-family:\"Bodoni MT\"\'> “He’s
probably with him,” Vince said to Greg.



style=\'font-family:\"Bodoni MT\"\'> “Who
is with whom?” Draco asked.



style=\'font-family:\"Bodoni MT\"\'> “Potter
is with you godfather,” Blaise clarified.



style=\'font-family:\"Bodoni MT\"\'> To
that Draco raised an eyebrow yet again.
Things were becoming quite odd.
He stopped and turned to look at his friends expecting answers.



style=\'font-family:\"Bodoni MT\"\'> “Last
night I was on my way to the Professor’s chambers to ask at what time you would
be returning, when Potter rushed past me.
Didn’t even notice me, figures tears and all.style=\'mso-spacerun:yes\'> He was a sad sight, sitting on his truck
holding his owl. Then the Professor came
out and Potter rushed to him recalling all that he supposed friends had done to
him,” Blaise stated with no venom or malice in his voice.



style=\'font-family:\"Bodoni MT\"\'> Draco
wasn’t surprised his best friend had never held any actual hatred for Harry
Potter, none of them did. It was just
something that they had to play out for their well being.style=\'mso-spacerun:yes\'>



style=\'font-family:\"Bodoni MT\"\'> “He
stayed with him?” Draco asked.



style=\'font-family:\"Bodoni MT\"\'> The
trio nodded.



style=\'font-family:\"Bodoni MT\"\'> Now
this was getting really interesting, resuming his course to his godfather’s
chambers.



style=\'font-family:\"Bodoni MT\"\'> Draco
knew of the supposed dislike his godfather had of Potter.style=\'mso-spacerun:yes\'> Thou, whether he admitted it or not he truly
cared for the boy, probably more then anyone else did.style=\'mso-spacerun:yes\'> Because come on, he knew Lupin was a
werewolf, he knew it was the night of the full moon, but he went there anyways,
why? Because he knew Potter was down
there. And even if it was unintentional
he was in danger. So Sev had to save
him.



style=\'font-family:\"Bodoni MT\"\'> It
didn’t take a genius to see that.



style=\'font-family:\"Bodoni MT\"\'> But
apparently very few were as observant as he was.style=\'mso-spacerun:yes\'> Because the whole school thought Sev hated
Potter, then again very few people knew all the facts.



style=\'font-family:\"Bodoni MT\"\'> He
wondered if Granger knew about this.



style=\'font-family:\"Bodoni MT\"\'> 



style=\'font-family:\"Bodoni MT\"\'> “No,”
he pouted.



style=\'font-family:\"Bodoni MT\"\'> “Harry
you have to go eat,” Severus signed.



style=\'font-family:\"Bodoni MT\"\'> “No,
please Sev, I can’t see them again, don’t make me go through it,”



style=\'font-family:\"Bodoni MT\"\'> “Harry,”



style=\'font-family:\"Bodoni MT\"\'> “It
would be better if they just ignored me, but they don’t the stare and point and
whisper, please,” Harry was on the verge of tears.



style=\'font-family:\"Bodoni MT\"\'> Severus
signed.



style=\'font-family:\"Bodoni MT\"\'> “Alright,
I have one of the elves to bring some food,” Severus said as he sat down beside
Harry.



style=\'font-family:\"Bodoni MT\"\'> “But
you still have to go to all of you class,” he continued.



style=\'font-family:\"Bodoni MT\"\'> “Can’t
I stay with you?” Harry whispered.



style=\'font-family:\"Bodoni MT\"\'> Severus
gave him a sad smile.



style=\'font-family:\"Bodoni MT\"\'> “I’m
sorry but I’m still suppose to hate you.”



style=\'font-family:\"Bodoni MT\"\'> Harry
frowned as he ears drooped.



style=\'font-family:\"Bodoni MT\"\'> He
wrapped his tail around himself.



style=\'font-family:\"Bodoni MT\"\'> “But
you don’t, right?” he asked in a childlike manner.



style=\'font-family:\"Bodoni MT\"\'> “No,”
Severus said as he laid his hand between Harry’s ears.



style=\'font-family:\"Bodoni MT\"\'> Harry
smiled and curled closer to the man who had become like a father to him.style=\'mso-spacerun:yes\'> Not that he wasn’t grateful for Sirius and
Remus but he hardly saw them anymore.
The Order always had them busy, not to mention Sirius was still
considered a murder. He was content
until the portrait called them.



style=\'font-family:\"Bodoni MT\"\'> Draco
was waiting outside.



style=\'font-family:\"Bodoni MT\"\'> “Uh
no,” Harry groaned.



style=\'font-family:\"Bodoni MT\"\'> “Harry
be nice,”



style=\'font-family:\"Bodoni MT\"\'> “Sev,
I’m not the one you should be telling that to,” Harry stated, “great just what I
need, my agony wouldn’t be complete without a Malfoy’s sneer.”



style=\'font-family:\"Bodoni MT\"\'> Severus
smiled slightly as Harry continued to sulk, his ears where flat against his
head while his tail’s hair were standing straight. style=\'mso-spacerun:yes\'> Harry didn’t notice it but he had a slight
growl to his voice, a true pose of an angry cat. style=\'mso-spacerun:yes\'> Severus wanted to laugh, but that would be
ever unlike him.



style=\'font-family:\"Bodoni MT\"\'> Severus
allowed the door to be open, and in walked in Draco Malfoy, followed by Blaise
Zabini, Vicente Goyle and Gregory Grabbe.



style=\'font-family:\"Bodoni MT\"\'> Draco
stopped and stood still until the others collided with him.style=\'mso-spacerun:yes\'> Before him was Harry Potter sitting on his
godfather’s sofa. He was currently
growling, and his eyes seem to glow.



style=\'font-family:\"Bodoni MT\"\'> “Harry,
stop, you’re growling,” Sev’s voice brought him back.



style=\'font-family:\"Bodoni MT\"\'> Harry
stopped and blinked at Snape, as if he hadn’t known he had been growling in the
first place.



style=\'font-family:\"Bodoni MT\"\'> Harry?
Draco thought.



style=\'font-family:\"Bodoni MT\"\'> He
arched an eyebrow when Harry pouted at his godfather.



style=\'font-family:\"Bodoni MT\"\'> Draco
seemed lost in though as Harry continued to pout.



style=\'font-family:\"Bodoni MT\"\'> “What?”
Harry hissed.



style=\'font-family:\"Bodoni MT\"\'> That
seemed to pull Draco out of his stupor.



style=\'font-family:\"Bodoni MT\"\'> “I…um,
well,” Draco started but stopped when Harry groan in frustration.



style=\'font-family:\"Bodoni MT\"\'> “I
going to my room,” Harry stated and stormed to his room, Draco supposed.



style=\'font-family:\"Bodoni MT\"\'> When
they heard the door slam, Blaise started to laugh along with Vince and Greg.



style=\'font-family:\"Bodoni MT\"\'> “Smooth,
Draco, real smooth,” Blaise laughed.



style=\'font-family:\"Bodoni MT\"\'> Severus
just looked at his students.



style=\'font-family:\"Bodoni MT\"\'> Seeing
the distress Draco was in, he decided to save him.



style=\'font-family:\"Bodoni MT\"\'> “Ahem,”
he called.



style=\'font-family:\"Bodoni MT\"\'> The
three stopped laughing and turned to their Head of House.



style=\'font-family:\"Bodoni MT\"\'> “Yes?”



style=\'font-family:\"Bodoni MT\"\'> “I
had to speak to you, godfather,” Draco answered.



style=\'font-family:\"Bodoni MT\"\'> “Well?”



style=\'font-family:\"Bodoni MT\"\'> “I
wanted to ask about Potter,” Draco tried to keep the longing out of his voice
but he couldn’t fool them. They knew,
they had always known. They knew him
better then he knew himself.



style=\'font-family:\"Bodoni MT\"\'> “He
needs time, he really didn’t expect that Weasley brat to turn on him,” Severus practically
spat the name out. style=\'mso-spacerun:yes\'>



style=\'font-family:\"Bodoni MT\"\'> Draco
nodded in understanding.



style=\'font-family:\"Bodoni MT\"\'> “Well,
it isn’t the first time he turned on him,” Greg stated.



style=\'font-family:\"Bodoni MT\"\'> “Yeah,
in the Triwizard tournament in fourth year,” Vince added.



style=\'font-family:\"Bodoni MT\"\'> “Still
it was proven to the Weasel that he meant the most to Potter and yet it doesn’t
mean a damn thing to him,” Draco cursed.



style=\'font-family:\"Bodoni MT\"\'> “Draco
language,”



style=\'font-family:\"Bodoni MT\"\'> They
heard a loud crack from Harry’s room and they all ran in.



style=\'font-family:\"Bodoni MT\"\'> “Harry?”



style=\'font-family:\"Bodoni MT\"\'> “Dobby
brought food for Harry Potter,” the little house elf jumped up and down after
he placed a tray full of food on his bed.
The tray was full of strawberries, chocolate and fish?



style=\'font-family:\"Bodoni MT\"\'> “Dobby
knows feys like fishy and strawberries see,” Dobby said as he pushed a bowl of
chocolate covered strawberries.



style=\'font-family:\"Bodoni MT\"\'> “Thank
you, Dobby,” Harry cheered as his eyes lit up and reached for the sweets.



style=\'font-family:\"Bodoni MT\"\'> “Thank
you, Dobby that will be all,” Severus said drawing the house elf’s attention.



style=\'font-family:\"Bodoni MT\"\'> “Anything
for Harry Potter,” the little house elf bowed and disappeared with a crack.



style=\'font-family:\"Bodoni MT\"\'> Blaise
turned and whispered close to Draco, “It seems you have competition, Draco.”



style=\'font-family:\"Bodoni MT\"\'> Draco
glared at Blaise, but luckily Harry hadn’t heard, he was too preoccupied.



style=\'font-family:\"Bodoni MT\"\'> Draco
had to stop himself from drooling at the sight, for a Malfoy does not drool.



style=\'font-family:\"Bodoni MT\"\'> Harry
was eating the strawberries with the greatest delight that he even purred.



style=\'font-family:\"Bodoni MT\"\'> “Harry?”
Sev called.



style=\'font-family:\"Bodoni MT\"\'> Harry
stopped and looked at Severus.



style=\'font-family:\"Bodoni MT\"\'> “You
want some?” Harry offered.



style=\'font-family:\"Bodoni MT\"\'> “No
thank you, but hurry because Potions will start soon,” Severus said as he led
the boys out.



style=\'font-family:\"Bodoni MT\"\'> “Okay,”
Harry simply answered and continued to eat.



style=\'font-family:\"Bodoni MT\"\'> Once
out of the room, Blaise turned to Severus, “Professor, are they supposed to
have mood swings like that?”



style=\'font-family:\"Bodoni MT\"\'> 



style=\'font-family:\"Bodoni MT\"\'> 



style=\'mso-bidi-font-style:normal\'>Well
since so many of you review and said you wanted me to continue at give you that
much. Thank for your kind words that
meant a lot, I just hope I can live up to the faith you have in me.
Thanks.
