Chapter 1

It is all over. Voldemort is gone forever along with wizards both good and evil. Though the world is shaking in shock still, people have began to pick up the pieces. All of this is because of Potter. Nor so he is told often in the news. Draco Malfoy lays in his bed of the St. Mungo’s Hospital. Not that he can recall how ge got there but remembers some of how it all ended.

The battle was intense for all who was there. Potter brought the Aurors and order of the Phoenix. Voldemort had his death eaters. Draco was caught in the middle as he was marked a Death Eater, yet he was bu then no longer Voldemort’s follower. How could he follow the very thing that killed his mother and father? After all he did to protect what was most precious to him and he failed so utterly. The very last moments were a blur for him. Potter was there! As well as Snape who stood by his side trying to protect him. Snape gave his life for him though no one would say how he died. Draco’s first guess was Potter;s doing. Potter vowed to kill, Snape ever since Dumbledore.

As Draco lays in his bed, in the early morning hours, his thinks over the two names that stir his feelings from the self pity. Dumbledore, the fool who cared for the Malfoy child, still lingers in his mind. His death haunted him for a long time and still does now. Kind face forever lost to death. How can anyone be like that?! So stupid! Draco hopes that if he keeps thinking like this he will believe it. Dumbledore saw his death coming and accepted it to protect him. Then there is Harry Potter. They could have started off as friend but the damnable boy wanted to be friends with the losers. The golden child who seems to come out on top and the end.

Potter, who is also in the same place as Draco, though in Draco is unsure where. Not many are allowed to see him so Draco is left to assume he was seriously hurt. A smile slips across his face. How suiting it would be if he dies? Hoping he dies for all the trouble and pain Draco was forced to endure. All because of Bloody Potter!

The nurses eventually arrive with breakfast for the patients who can eat. One nurse smiles cheerfully at Draco with his tray. The food consists of bland scrambled eggs and toast.

Draco scowls, “ What is this?” in a very snobbish tone.

Nurse just smiles, “ Now eat up, Mr. Malfoy.”

And she goes on to feed the other patients. Draco is left poking the eggs and wondering who could eat this?! The other patients eat their meal without complaint but they were NOT a Malfoy. He deserves better. Is Potter having something better? Everyone loves the Golden boy!

Draco, on the verge of trying to find out, is distracted by his first real quests. Vincent Crabbe and Gregory Goyle, though Draco never really ever uses their first names. Most of the time he even forgets they have first names. The two are large and not very bright students. More importantly, they also brought gifts with them.

Crabbe, with eagerness, “ Hey, Draco, we got you some presents.”

Goyle has chocolate around his mouth and a look of guilt, “I ate some of the chocolate frogs. “

Draco laughs as it is almost like the old ays when they were students, “ You two are so helpess! “ Accepts his gifts and sorts them out. Indeed Goyle ate almost all the chocolate frogs but left the other treats untouched. So Draco tosses them the last two, “ Might as well finish them.” Rolling his eyes as he gives them permission to eat.

Between them three the rest of the candy is easily polished off. Not the best breakfast but more appealing. For a moment Draco forgets the past several months, yet, there are things he must ask.

Draco, “ So who died?”

Crabbe, “ I heard one of the Weasleys kicked the bucket. “

They said other names of people Draco hardly knew personally. The two didn’t know which Weasley died either. Maybe if was that Ron champ? Wouldn’t that just be perfect if Potter lost his bestfriend? Anything that makes Potter unhappy is good news.

Draco, “ I heard Potter is also in this hospital”

Goyle, “ Yeah but they won’t say much else. “

Crabbe, “ I heard a rumor.. “ reluctantly to speak it.

Draco, “ What? Someone blow off his family jewels?” Snickers at the thought.

Crabbe, “ They said he is the one who carried you out.”

Draco can feel his cheeks burn, “ Hell no! I probably got myself out of there, I’s just too tired to go over my brave escape right now.”

Goyle smacks Crabbe in the arm for Draco, “ I told you! “ With scorn as he truly believes Draco.

Draco, “ Can you find out which Weasley died?”

Crabbe, “ Sure!”

They would have talked further except this is when the Ministry of magic came to his room. The two are sent out as the discussion is about Draco’s fate. Because he was a death eater, there is a chance he may face charges. Right now they are hunting down all the Death Eaters and this time here is going to be less mercy on them. The only thing protecting him from being sent to prison was Potter’s account of how he stood against Voldemort. This is a bitter pill for him to swallow, to think his current freedom was thanks to Bloody Harry Potter.

Draco wanting to send him away feigned being ill, “ I’m feeling dizzy... “

“ I’ll go then. Try to get some rest.”

Draco pretends to rest and wastes the rest of the day listening to gossip among the nurses. This proves more fruitful then his two idiot friends could be. The Weasley to die was Ginny. There is word that McGonagall is not only the new Headmaster of Hoqwarts , but she may give Lupin his job as Defense against Dark Arts back. The rest he tunes out as it sickened him. Draco begins to wonder about his future. Will they take away his inheritance? His family home? What will he do even if he still keeps it all? Most wizards at least graduated from Hogwarts.

Draco, “ I bet all Potter has to do is smile and they’ll give him whatever job he wants.”

Once again His thoughts turn to Potter. How serious was he hurt? One nurse spoke saying he is being transferred to a private room now. That means he is stabilized. Shame.... But private room can hold potential. That is when Draco began to plot of a surprise visit.

To be continued.....
