Chapter Fourteen

"Damn you Draco Malfoy. I told you to come back to me in one piece!" Kalista half yelled, half sobbed at him as she set beside his bed in the infirmary.

"I am still in one piece, love." Draco told her, his speech slightly slurred from the pain potions he had received.

"Don't be a smart ass with me Draco! Your back is split-open almost to the damn bone! Your damn pride could have gotten you killed."

"I was perfectly fine love. This can be healed, it has been healed. I got through the first round of the tournament. I doubt they'll get any easier but they shouldn't be as brutal either."

"Well, I sure hope not. This was almost to much. When only reason I kept my eyes open thought the whole thing was because I promised." Kalista told him as she swept the hair from his face that had had fallen into his eyes. "What had you so angry that that brown haired boy?"

"There was many brown haired people out there love."

"The one you fought under the

Draco's face immediately darkened, "He spoke word that never should have been said."

"What did he say?"

"He called you a whore. You are no whore love, a bit of vixen in the sack but no whore because only I have experienced sex with you and only I ever will. NO one calls my girl a whore, he's lucky he escaped with his life."

"Draco-" but he cut her off already knowing what she was going to say.

"Don't Kali. I will follow you anywhere. I know it is to early to be saying all of this, but I know you are it for me." Draco said locking his silver eyes to her very familiar emerald ones. He knew she as hesitant about the progression of their relationship becoming serious. She didn't plane on staying here in England.

And though she stood up to his grandfather about him making his own choices, he knew she didn't want him to leave his family behind either. The only family she had left was her sister,Severus and remus along with their kids. What little family she had left meant every thing to her.

"Draco you know I’m not staying and you also know I haven't been exactly forth coming about who I am and my past." Kalista said as she set up from her chair moving away form his beside. "There can never truly be a serious relationship between us with this dark cloud hanging above us."

"Then tell me what I need to know." Draco said as he forced himself to sit up. The pain was dull now but the new skin on his back felt tight causing him some discomfort.

"You know I can’t Draco." Kalista told him as she wrapped her arms around herself as though she was trying to keep herself together.

"Can’t or Won’t Kalista? I understand you secret are you own and I am willing to let yo tell them in you own time. I don’t want to push you in to telling me but I can’t keep letting them get in the way of us either."

"Us? As much as I would love for there to be an 'us' Draco, we both know our responsibilities lay elsewhere. You to you family me to protecting what's left of mine."

"Why won't yo let me shoulder some of your burdens?" Draco asked as he got up from his bed to stand before her. "Why Won’t you let me protect you? I would do everything in my power to protect you." He told her as he lightly caressed her cheek.

"Because I love you entirely too much to let you should my burdens." Kalista said ash moved away from him. "And I think for both our sakes we need to stop what ever it is between us."

"Kalista please-" but his words were cut off by his mother entering the room.

"Draco darling what are you doing up out of bed?" Narcissa exclaimed as she rushed into the room to push him back in to the bed giving Kalista her chance to escape.

"Mother please stop." Draco said as he tried to get around her so he could go after Kalista.

"Draco you should be resting." His mother told him as she continued to push him back towards his bed.

"No, I should be going after Kalista. But by now she held up in her dorm." Draco said in exasperation as he tiredly collapsed on this bed. He was worn out from the first round of the tournament his injury, the potions, and his fight with Kalista left him drained.

"You two had a fight?" his mother asked as she took the seat that once been occupied by Kalista.

"Yes," Draco answered tiredly.

"About what?"

"Her secrets. I don’t mind her having them, hell I could live without ever knowing them, but they are keeping her closed off from me. That I can’t live with. Knowing that her past keeps us from becoming more and making her run form me is painful. So very painful."

"Draco," his mother begun as she took his hand into hers. "You just met this girl, maybe this is for the best."

"NO mother it isn’t. I know she's if for me. I know that if I can’t get her to open up to me and trust me never to her then I'll lose her. Losing her is not an option."

"You love her even after this short amount of time."

"Mother than I could ever describe to you."

"Then fight for her Draco. She means to much to you for you to let her go. Let her know you will do anything to protect here."

When Kalista reached her dorm she was happy to see Krista wasn’t there. She need a moment to herself to pull herself together. Ending things with Draco wasn’t something she planned on doing at least not now. But it was for the best. There feelings for each other were getting to deep to fast.

She couldn't let thing between them continue especially when when knew that if he knew the truth then he would never feel for her as he does now. She had deceived him, tricked him into feeling for he. She was completely and utter ashamed of herself for what she don’t to him.

Since it was still to early for them to leave she wasn’t going to mention anything to Krista about it. And the fact that her sister wasn't enjoying her time with Blaise, she count ruin it so soon for her. So she'll wait till the holidays when they originally planned to leave.

She was pulled form her musing when she heard a knock at her door. She knew who it was she could feel him even though the was a good twelve feet form her and on the other side of the door.

"I know you are in there Kalista Just as you knew it was me when I knocked." Draco said through the door. "While I wish you will open the door so we can talk face to face I know that Won’t happen. So I’ll just tell you this through this godforsaken door. I love you. I don't know why and I don’t know how it happened so damned fast but I love you. I know you will try to use the excuse that we are 17 and don’t know what love is, but I do. I have grown up around true love my entire life. I have seen it between my parents and my grandparents. And I know you haven't grown up around love since you parents died. And the only love you see is that between Sev and Remus. And their love isn’t something you have been around a lot either. So you probably don’t know what to look for. SO I’m going to tell you. When my father walks into a room I can tell by the look on my mothers face. There is this smile that plays on her lips and the glowing her eyes. Happiness. My grandfather knows what my grandmother is telling him without so much a s word spoken or eye contact. But you can practically hear the silent 'I Love You' he sends back to here in the brilliant smile that thrown in her direction. Uncle Sev and Remus they orbit around each other like two magnets. When Remus moves and inch Sev will move two just to make sure he is close enough if the werewolf needs him." Draco told her. She could practically hear his smile as eh talked about the love between his family. She was in tears fro the beginning she knew by the time he was dong she wold be a sobbing mess.

"And us baby we have own tells as well." Draco said resting his head on the door. "I can feel your eyes on me from across a room, It sends my heart in to overdrive. The sound of you laughter makes my heart stutter and fills me with happiness because you are happy. Did you know you talk in you sleep love? Did you know you always sigh out my name followed by a light smile on you lips. Most night I can’t go to sleep unless I hear and see you do that. My first and last thoughts of the day is of you and how to make you smile and laugh everyday. Because I may not know much abut you but I know you don’t do enough of either.

For every smile and laugh you make completes me. For every tear you shed I'll shed my own. All your pains and burdens are mine as well love, even when you won’t share them. I love you no matter you faults. I love you no matter your secrets. So even if you don’t open this door so I can hold you in my arms know that I’m not giving up on us love. You can be as stubborn as a mule but I am a Malfoy love. At the end I'll have you back with me, secrets and all. I'll always love you."

She knew his word were true he would never give up he would do whatever he could to win her back. Nothing she did would deter him even leaving because he would follow. The only option she had was to break his heart but even that may be for nothing if he saw through it.

She never did open her door just as Draco knew she wouldn't he hadn't excepted her to even after pouring his heart out before many of his shocked housemates.

"You can’t cut me off!" Ron exclaimed.

"Ronald your service are obviously no longer needed if you aren in communication with Harry or Hermione. Paying you to be Potter's friend is a mute point now." Dumbledore said calmly as he set down across from Ron.

"You promised 80 galleons a year for severn years. I want my last installment. Harry no longer being in contact with me isn’t my fault. I warned you that you little games with him were no longer subtle. You would listen blew you cover and most likely mine. I will not be denied what is mine Dumbledore. I want my last payment in full at the end of the year or I'll go to the Aurors about your illegal activities."

"You dare to threaten me boy!" Dumbledore said angrily as he stood from is chair. "You know it Won’t take much for me to destroy you."

"You do so and all your dirty deeds will be spread all over the Daily Prophet. I may be poor Dumbledore and a little less connected than you but I have connections in all the right places. My father has some very important friends you kill or harm me in any way, everything that you ever thought you kept a secret will be splatter carouses the wizarding world." Ron told Dumbledore calmly as he stood from his seat.

Ronald Weasley's ability to gleam information out of almost anything and his knack for strategizing was the reason Dumbledore hired him. His act of jealous and clueless best friend had been just that, an act.

He may not have been as smart as his 'friends' but he knew enough to survive and to get what he wanted. Growing up in a house with 6 siblings had ensured that. And his father Arthur was well connected. Not as connected as Albus or the Malfoys but enough to cause Dumbledore to falter. Arthur's work at the ministry helped him gain many of those connections.

Even when the most powerful Wizards tried to deny their interest in muggle objects some did dabble without some understanding of what they were dabbling in. Arthur wasn't a man to except bribes but he was a man to show leniency and believed in second chances. Some of his connections have been subject to his leniency. They didn’t owe the family a life debt but many wizarding family lived by a code of honor. You scratch my back I'll scratch yours.

"I see we have an understanding Dumbledore." Ron said to him when he saw the headmaster back off. "And you may make plans to block my attempts of exposing you but we both know who hold the control over the Daily Prophet and who is very close to the Lovegoods. Both individuals would love to see you crash and burn even if they don’t particularly like me."

"I see you have covered all of your bases." Dumbledore said coldly as he set back down in his seat.

"You and everyone else may think me to be a fool Dumbledore but I’m not. I've known for a long time that you can’t be trusted. I have covered my bases and I want what is mine." Ron told Dumbledore before he left the headmaster's office.

"Dammit!" Dumbledore exclaimed as he threw his bowl of lemon drops across the room to have it shatter against the wall. All his plans were crashing down around him. If he didn’t get everything back under his control soon nothing would be salvageable and his life work will be in ruin.

He needed to figure out away to get his people back under his thumb. He for the life of him couldn't realize how he lost so many. First it was Remus and Severus. When the relationship between the two of them grew stronger the werewolf's loyalties fell to the potions master. He knew he would be walking a tight rope with that. One wrong move Severus loyalties would have fell to Voldemort with him Remus. And since Remus could never really part from his Pseudo-God son and his best friend Sirius he would persuade them to follow him.

But with the Death of Black he had somehow lost the trust of Remus and Harry. Both had begun to see through his web of deceit. But at that stage they didn’t want to believe that the man they had placed their trust in would or ever could deceive them.

He knew the way to get his power back was to somehow regain the trust of Potter. But he didn’t know how to go about that when he could get Severus or Remus to talk to him. They were his key to Potter he would do what he must to get them to talk to him.
