Chapter 7
Draco walked into the Great Hall. He tried his best to avoid all eye contact at any risk. Not that he cared that everyone knew. He was going to proudly stick by Hermione and not be a total git and leave her alone and helplessly pregnant. Draco sat himself down at the Slytherin table beside Pansy and across from Goyle and Marcus Flint. Draco could feel all eyes on him. He looked up and Millicent Bulstrode's eyes immediately darted away from him. Daphne Green grass was especially looking at him. After all, it was her older sister whom had broken this boys heart. And now he was to become a father. "Don't bother giving in to their looks" Pansy mumbled to Draco. Draco smiled faintly. "Yeah. Gossip is just a suckish way for gits to get attention" Marcus said loud and proud. At least now Draco knew he could actally trust these three people. They didn't judge him or think less of him for sleeping with Hermione Granger and getting her pregnant. Draco heard the sweet voice of Hermione. He turned around slightly to see her walk in. She wore her Gryiffindor uniform neatly. Her baby bump not even slightly showing. Maybe if Draco were to get a closer view, there might be a small bump. But not from a distance.
Draco's stomach growled. He picked up a price of toast and took a sip of butterbeer.
As Draco ate, the whispering got louder and louder.
"Yeah. He's staying with the mudblood. Keeping the foul little thing." A Slytherin seventh year said. "Disgraceful if you asked me. Bringing down his family name." A sixth year Slytherin female remarked.
"Quite foolish. Who in their right minds would want a little torment?!" A Slytherin boy in his eighth year smirked.
Draco had had enough. He quickly slammed down his goblet and stormed out of the Great Hall.
If not even his own house could support him and treat him with respect, then he had just lost faith. It is just now striking him of the responsibilitys of being as dad and he wasn't even one yet!
His whole life was tumbling down. In the last year, he had lost Crabbe to a fire and Blaise to betrayal.
Draco sat in a large window sill in far end of the school, which was like a ghost town.
He put his face in his hands and did what he was thought never to do. Cry. The eighteen year old weept into his hands. His soft cries filling the hallways with a cascading echo.
Draco's breathing became more rapid. After ten to fifteen minutes of this lose of arm which resulted in gasping, he retained himself.
How come Hermione's friends are so supportive of her? She's got the whole school behind her on this. Why am I made out to be the bad guy just because I was the one who got her pregnant?? Draco thought. This thought caused the upset boy to sob more. Hopefully no one would see him. The last time someone had witnessed him sobbing ,he had ended up in the hostipal wing.
The voices if his fellow Slytherins' mocking him and talking about him in his presents echoed in his head. Each voice booming louder than the previous one before it.
"Quite foolish. Who in their right minds would want a little torment?!"
"Yeah. He's staying with the mudblood. Keeping the foul little thing."
"Disgraceful if you asked me. Bringing down his family name."
Was he really disgracing his family name and heritage even more?
Oh Merlin. Why can't life just go smoothly for me for once?! Draco thought.
Back at the Slytherin table, Pansy was giving the bad mouthing Slytherins' a mouth full.
"And you all don't even consider thinking about what the hell he's dealing with! His family is damaged after the war!! He's just found out in a few mouths time ,he's going to be a dad! How would you like that? Draco is only eighteen. He should be out living his life. But instead he has the weigh of judgmental pricks like you lot of his back since term started." Pansy fumed. The poor sixth year girl looked terrified while the seventh and eighth year students looked amused.
"Then let's be honest, he should learn to use protection!" The eighth year laughed. The rest of the table joined in. Apart from Pansy , Marcus and Goyle; mainly because Goyle didn't know what was going on.
Pansy wasn't finished yet. She nodded towards Marcus. Marcus slammed his fist on the table to sumon silence among the chackling crew of Slytherins'.
"This is disgraceful!" Pansy roared. "Draco is dealing with something serious. No laughing matter!! And his own house mates, his own friends , fellow Quidditch players and classmates won't even back him up in the slightest!" She shouted.
"One hundred points from Slytherin!" Pansy shouted.
"You can't do tha-"
"But I just did!!" Pansy yelled viciously.
Everyone was surprised at how aggressive Pansy was being.
Draco had just pulled himself back together.
Food seemed like a bad idea right now. He would probably vomit if he were to try to eat. And wasn't even the pregnant one.
The Slytherin blond sighed. He stood up and tried despartly to remove any wrinkles in his uniform. He failed miserably. Can't even do that right!! An angry voice in Draco's head yelled at him.
I know A smaller voice in Draco's head replied timidly. Seems like a conversation he would normally have with his dreadful father.
All on Draco's mind was the baby. His baby. Their baby. Or as a couple of the female Slytherins' were lately calling it "A Tragic Little Mistake". Most of the conversations went on like this;
"What a tragic little mistake"
"How tragic"
"What a little mistake"
"Tragic mistake really"
And many other unwanted opinion's from some unwanted people.
In away, it hurt that peoplee were comparing his baby to a tragic mistake. People he normally would hang out with. They had just cast him away. Just like that.
