•••••

The past few days had been rainy and cloudy, and over all; depressing. This was her first weekend since the students had been back at Hogwarts, and well, it had been interesting to some extent. Katie had been hit in the ribs by a stray bludger during quidditch practice, and the only thing Madam Pomfrey could do was give her some vile tasting potion. But compared to the night before, she felt much better; the pain was gone and the only that was left was a bruise. Then, there was the incident with the letter. Helena, her mother, had managed to send Katie a letter, giving he an update. Marcus and Max had attempted to break out of Azkaban, but the news didn't go over good with the minister of magic. Thing's were looking too good.

Opening her eyes, Katie glanced around the Slytherin common room, until her gaze landed on the old grand father clock. It was 11 o'clock in the morning, and the common room was deserted; everyone was out enjoying the day. She had fallen asleep, after her visit with the medi-witch, curled up in a chair beside the large fireplace. As far as she could tell, she had slept there all night. Giving a groan, she yanked her legs out from underneath her bottom, stretching out. After a while, Katie leaned over, snatching the letter from Helena, before jamming it into her jeans pocket. Katie leaned back, sinking into the cushions. She would eventually have to get up, before Draco or somebody else came to check on her.

The blonde haired Slyterin sighed as he looked out the window he walked past. He almost cursed the weather, rain again. He wondered when there would be a day on no rain, he wanted to get out onto the quidditch pitch and practice. Yes sure he could have gone and praticed now in the rain, but what sane person done that. He certainly won't, unless he desperately needed to, not that he would ever admit it.

He had left his 2 lackeys, Crabbe and Goyle back in the Great Hall. He himself only have a slice of toast to eat and although it didnt show on his face, he had become worried about Katie. She hadnt shown up at breakfast. He wondered if she had gone to the hospital wing and so he had gone there first only to find that she wasnt there. Maybe she was still in bed. He felt guilty for her getting injured. It wasnt like he had meant for the bludger to get past him, he had been in the process of hitting the other one away from him and before he knew it, Katie was injured. He could have kicked himself for not looking after her better. He even insisted that he stay with her in the hospital wing but Madam Pompfrey literally kicked him out and he had no choice but go to the Great Hall for dinner last night. He hadnt seen her since then.

Draco made his way to the Slytherin common room, figuring she'd show up when she wanted too. Maybe she just wanted to be left alone. He wouldnt blame her if she wanted to avoid him for a day or so. So it was a suprise to him when he stepped through the portrait to find her alone in the common room.
"Katie," he walked over to her and sat on the couch next to her chair.
"How is it?" he asked, refering to the injury she had sustained in pratice.

Leaning back into her chair, Katie sunk into the cushions, taking a few seconds just to sit and relax, or at least try to. While her body laid back and relaxed, she was having a mental debate with herself on whether or not she should just go on and get up. She was going to have up sooner or later, and it would probably be better now, than later. Giving a soft sigh, Katie slid out of her chair, and stood up. Reaching up towards the sky, Katie stretched, suppressing a yawn. Pausing momentarily, Kaitlyn paused, and grabbed all of her stuff that had slid between the chair, and the cushion.

A few minutes later, Katie pulled the curtain of her bed to the side, tossing her stuff onto the bed, before kneeling down on her knees. She fumbled around for a few seconds, trying to grab her trunk and pull it out from under her bed. Sometime later, Katie kicked the trunk back underneath her bed, and then spread a pair of clean jeans, a tank top, and a t shirt across her bed. Eventually, she slipped out of her dirty clothes, tossing them to the side, and shimmied into her clean clothes. After Katie had brushed her hair and applied a little bit of makeup, she wanted to look presentable, she leaned over, pulling Helena’s letter out of her dirty jeans pocket.

Kaitlyn eventually found herself back in the seat she had fallen asleep in, located in the Slytherin common room. She pulled her knees up to her chest, reading her mother’s letter one last time, before tossing it into the fireplace, and allowing her head to rest on her knee cap. The flames were mesmerizing, but her trance like state was soon broken by a familiar voice: Draco. Had he seen her through the letter away? Even if he had, it didn’t matter; Katie trusted him. Reaching up, she brushed her dark hair back behind her shoulders, before giving him a slight grin. ”It’s fine, just a nasty bruise, no pain or anything.”

He brushed his hair out of his eyes. He had caught her thowing something into the fire eariler. He figured that if she wanted to talk about it, she'd be the one to bring it up. If it were anyone else, he'd have already begun pestering them to tell him and he wouldnt give up until they had. Katie was different, she was the girl that had shown him how to love. The hold his father had on his begun breaking when he met the girl. But what had he given her in return, an injury because he was stupid and careless.

Draco nodded at her words before stretching out on the couch, putting his feet up on the opposite arm rest.
"Thats...good," he replied as he turned his head to stare into the fire, watching the last remains of the parchment she had thrown in finally turn to ash. He wondered if he's life was going to end up like that parchment. He was already in the heat of the war, having been forced to get the dark mark by his father and given the task to kill Dumbledore. Though the old wizard sided with his enemy, Potter and his friends, he couldnt help but think that he didnt deserve to die by his hand. He didnt know if he could do it. Then the thought that if he didnt, he was sure the dark lord would not only kill him but his family, he may not turn to ash like the parchment, but he'd be dead, gone from this world. How would his love handle his death, many thoughts and ideas of it floated through his head, things like would she kill herself, would she morn for him or simply move on or would the dark lord take more interest in her? He didnt like a single thought. He realised that if he did die, not many would care; the Weasel would most likely dance over his grave.

Sighing, he realised he was dwelling on it too much. He needed a distraction.
"Come here," he said after a moment, moving slightly so she could sit on the couch with him. He patted the cushion between his legs once, indicating that he wanted her to sit there. He wanted to hold her, something that always made him forget about things.

Katie gazed at Draco, chewing on the inside of her bottom lip, before glancing back at the fire. He felt guilty and bad about the accident, and she could sense it. ”It wasn’t your fault, Draco.” She murmured softly, trying to reassure him. The accident wasn’t Draco’s fault, if anything, it was her own fault. Katie just hadn’t been that attentive, it got the best of her, and then ‘wham’, bludger to the ribs. There wasn’t anything broken, just a cracked rib or two; nothing that wouldn’t heal. Anyways, it wasn’t like it was the worse accident she had been in; there were many more that could out do that one quite easily.

Glancing down, she noticed the light out line of the dark mark on her arm ( she had covered it with some makeup ). Katie gently traced the faint out line. She had gotten it during the summer, only because of her father and brothers of course, and it was by far the most painful experience she had ever had. It wasn’t exactly something she was proud of at the moment, but it wasn’t something she was ashamed of either. Kaitlyn knew about Draco’s task, and in her head, it wasn’t the greatest idea’s. How could the Dark Lord expect a teenager to take down Albus Dumbledore? But she knew that if he didn’t, she may never see him again, and that was never a good thing. Unknowingly, Katie shook her head to side, just slightly, before looking up at Draco. ”What are you thinking about?” She knew what she was thinking about, and she couldn’t help but wonder if it was the same with him.

Seconds later, she glanced back over at fire, watching as the final piece of the letter finally burnt up. Kaitlyn turned her gaze back over to him, watching as he moved, and motioned for her to come over there. ”Alright” She unfolded her legs, slid out of the chair, and plopped down on the couch.

Even though she said it wasnt his fault, he still felt bad for it. If anything, he wished he could have been the one to be hit with the bludger. It wouldnt exactly be the first time he'd been hit. He watched his girl, it seemed as if she were in deep thought and then she shook her head. He raised an eyebrow, curious as to what she herself was thinking. Then she asked the same thing he was about to.

Should he lie to her and say something about Quidditch, or stretch the truth a little? No he couldnt find it in himself to lie to this wonderful girl, he took his time thinking of the best way to answer and figured that the best way was the truth, straight to the point.
"The task," he replied, "And what would happen if i dont complete it." He inwardly cursed, he didnt want to think about it at all that day and yet here they were decussing it. His mind went over the task, it did seem quiet impossible, but then this was the magic world, the impoosible usually became the possible. Maybe the dark lord intended for him to fail just to get back at Lucius, he wouldnt put it past the evil snake to do something like that.

The scent of her shampoo filled his nose as she sat down and his arms automatically went around her. He placed his chin on her shoulder.
"Can we not talk about the task today?" he whispered before moving his head to kiss the side of her neck.
"I just want a normal day without having to worry myself or you.No task to think of, i dont even want the dark mark to remind us of what i have to do." His arms wrapped around her tighter like she was his only lifeline that he didnt plan on letting go.

Kaitlyn directed her green eyes over to Draco, subconsciously biting the inside of her lip. It wasn’t any fun, having Draco around, when he was acting like this. Why couldn’t he say something, anything, actually? At least then, she wouldn’t feel so guilty, and then she’d stop mulling over the accident in her head. Her lack of attention, and slight stupidity the night before, had caused the accident, not Draco. Anyways, it wasn’t that bad, and she was going to put it behind, or at least attempt.

After a little bit, Katie eventually pushed the accident to the back of her mind and forgot about it, only to have thoughts surrounding a touchy, and well, depressing subject for her. The dark lord was the reason why half of her family, including her brother and father, were stuck in Azkaban. He had also given Draco a near impossible task, and truth be told, she was scared to see the end results. If Draco didn’t succeed, he would probably be killed, and then the dark lord would move onto her. At this point, Katie didn’t really know what she wanted, but she did know one thing: she didn’t want the dark lord. ”Everything will be okay, Draco.” Katie murmured softly, not only trying to reassure him, but also herself.

Eventually, Katie moved from her spot and plopped down in the space between his legs, leaning back into him. She sighed happily, pulling both ends of her mouth up into a smile as he placed his chin on her shoulder. Draco always made her feel better, and he always knew how to make things better and calm her down when he needed to. ”That sounds good to me.” Katie said, pressing her neck against his lips, enjoying the company. ”Nothing is ever normal, but I’m pretty sure we can get close.” She said, reaching up, taking one of his hands in her own.

He took a deep breath, breathing in her scent, the one thing that could distract him and calm him at the same time. He moved his arms from around her and ran his fingers down her long hair before taking hold of it. Separating her hair into 3 clumps he begun plaiting it. He blamed both his parents for this skill. His father had long hair and his mother was stubborn when it came to him, forcing him to plait wither his father's hair or hers when they were running low on time, often having important meetings to go to. It was soothing though and he was careful not to pull hard on his girl's hair. He didn't want to cause her more pain. Not only did to serve the purpose to sooth him, it allowed him more access to her neck.

Letting go of the untied plait, he leaned forward, pressing yet another kiss to her neck, nipping at it this time. He stopped his actions when she stated everything would be fine. He paused in his actions. Were they just words to put false hope into him or were they more for her? He doubted everything would be ok, how could they be when they had the dark mark branded on them, reminding them constantly of what must come. No, to Draco everything would not be ok.

He had thought of turning to Dumbledore and the order for protection, but he knew there was no guarantee that his parents would follow or even live if Voldemort found out. He was in a loose-loose situation. It was only when she took his hand that he snapped out of his thoughts and back to reality.
"I hope so," he replied, "And just how do we plan to get as close to normal as we can?" He was trying to change the subject. Moving his arm around her again, this time his hand settled on her stomach.
"You know you're very optimistic for a death eater and a Slytherin," he replied. No one was in the common room which meant he had no need to hide the simple fact that they were indeed death eaters.
