Chapter 1
“It hurts to know that you will never look at me the way I look at you”
-(N.V)
Harry hasn’t slept since the war, his mind is always racing, filled with the images of dead students filling his head. If only he went sooner…that thought alone haunts him, the thought of it’s all his fault if he had went down to Voldemort, if he would’ve died sooner, His classmates would be saved..Ofcourse Harry understands it not his fault, but he can’t stop from feeling responsible for their deaths.
Ron and Hermione were talking about something Harry didn’t bother listening to, his brain shutting down from the lack of sleep. Everyone always worried for Harry, he had dark circles under his eyes, some days he could hardly stand form his exhaustion. The train whistled singling the start of ride to hogwarts. Harry hadn’t wanted to go to hogwarts, He wanted to stay in Grimmauld Place, sure that place was awful, sure it reminded Harry of the worst…but it was a place he could get away from people.
~•when they got to hogwarts•~
“Welcome back 7th years..” She went on about all the rules, while Harry didn’t follow. His mind was elsewhere, remembering all who died here. After what felt like hell. “Why did he come back..? Back to the lecture! Because I must pay attention! Can’t have the all mighty Harry Potter getting lost! He’s the saver! He doesn’t have anything wrong with his head!” Those are things Harry regularly thought…and heard..it’s true people can be as cruel as only thinking about what they went through.
AFTER MCGONAGALL'S CHAT!
McGonagal gave each person a list of who they would be sharing a dorm with. Harry looked around for Ron, as he had disappeared. Harry turned his sight blurry even with his glasses due to the lack of sleep, ah, there’s Ron Harry thought to himself walking to Ron. “Ron?” Ron turned around now looking at Harry with a sympathetic look.
“What?”
“Your rooming with Malfoy..”
Harry’s heart dropped he did come back. Draco Malfoy. He Harry Potter would be rooming with Draco. Malfoy.
Harry looked at the chart’s McGonagall conjured with the names, indeed seeing Draco’s name next to his. Room 6..?
