Aurora: And the Endless of Love {DM}

CHAPTER 17 - Dragon

The days are changing so fast and now it is Saturday that Aurora, Ernie, Hannah and Justin return to the hogsmeade village, they are now in the Zonco store which is one of their favorite stores after Three Broomstick and Honeydukes

The store was so crowded with Hogwarts students crammed into it, Aurora bought a box of dung bombs and a nose-biting cup to take home, though she did not know who she was going to be

In the afternoon, the breeze blew, they had now returned to the castle, in the middle of the Aurora road leading into the castle he was surprised by Draco, Crabbe and Goyle who ran breezed past him, draco's dirty face was full of mud, platinum blonde hair looked disheveled and the smell of dirt

"Why with them" asked Aurora to herself

"Aurora, maybe you can use a dung bomb for her hair" Ernie said with Justin and Hannah laughing

"May as well", Aurora said with a faint smile

They walked back through the marble staircase of the castle and Hermione intercepted Aurora with her hands clutching a piece of paper

"Aurora.".", said Hermione with irregular breath because she ran away.

"Relax, what is it?", said Aurora confused and then she saw a tear on Hermione's eyelid that was about to fall, Aurora quickly took Hermione back to the Gryffindor tower

"You go back first, I'll drive Hermione" Aurora said, nodding to her friends

The two of them now walk down the stairs until they arrive in front of the painting Fat Lady, if you ask where Sir Cadogan is, he has been fired from his duties for not being able to guard the Gryffindor Dormitory

Hermione spoke her cipher and the painting moved open, Aurora and Hermione sat in a chair near the dead fireplace, giving Aurora a formal letter and reading it

"This is impossible" said Aurora Iirih in disbelief by closing her mouth.

"We fail to help Hagrid, Buckbeak will be put to death" said Hermione then sobbing, who was then put on a hug by Aurora

Moments later, the door to Gryffindor House opened again, Harry and Ron walking next to each other, Hermione immediately stood up and approached the two of them with the letter

"What do you want?, laughing at us?", said Ron coldly staring at Hermione

"No.... Here, I think you want to hear this" Hermione gave the letter and it was received by Harry

"Hagrid lost, buckbeak will be slaughtered" Hermione said

"They can't do that, buckbeak harmless animals" Harry said

"Draco's father, Mr. Lucius Malfoy, had the committee terrified, so they decided that" Aurora said

"We can still appeal, but it's just that I'm not sure it will work and we have no hope anymore" Hermione said

"There" said Ron convinced, Aurora and Hermione looked at each other and looked at Ron

"You don't have to work alone anymore, I'll help you Hermione, Aurora" Ron said

"Oh Ron", said Hermione then hugged Ron, clasped his hand to Ron's shoulder with a sniff, Ron looked surprised and scared but then he returned Hermione's embrace and rubbed her hair awkwardly

Aurora and Harry who saw it just smiled, Harry scratched his nose with a palm that was dirty with traces of mud, while Aurora he was already smiling widely showing his white teeth

"I'm sorry about Scabers Ron.", said Hermione, who was still sobbing and then took off her arms.

"Oh-yeah, it's fine that he's old, too, and useless.... Maybe in this way Mom and Dad can buy me an owl" said Ron then wipe Hermione's tears with his thumb even though he looks very awkward

A few days later, after Black managed to enter the castle twice, the castle's security this time was tightened even further, the four children were now unable to sneak into Hagrid's cottage at night so they could only talk to Hagrid when the lesson was over

"It's all my fault, my tongue was stiff in front of the committee members" Hagrid said in tears as he pelted the rock at the lake, while the four children simply stood by being listeners by occasionally discussing other ways if possible

"There is still an appeal!", said Ron firmly, "calm down first, we will take care of it!", continued Ron

Aurora will also try to help Hagrid through Aurora's father who is quite ranking and influential in the magic ministry, he will also try to talk with Draco to want to revoke his father's demands

"Hagrid, I don't promise, but I'll try to talk to my father, hopefully he can help in this case, and I'll try to persuade Draco, so he can drop his father's claim", aurora broke the silence and got a look of hope from Hagrid's eyes as well as those of her friends

But behind that, Aurora also did not expect much in either way, because if she only relied on her father's influence and rank, that alone would not be enough, either, because Aurora believes the committee members will submit to Lucius Malfoy if the money has spoken

After they returned to the castle, put on the stairs, they saw Draco, Crabbe and Goyle laughing at Hagrid

"Had it all gone, it would have been for nothing, the committee bowed under the grip of Lucius Malfoy, I'd better give Beacky some good days for the last time", hagrid said after hearing Draco making fun of him and he cried as he returned to his cabin

"How can a silly creature seem to be our teacher", the laughter gets louder

Ron and Harry came forward ready for a fight but the pace was overtaken by Hermione who was faster then hit Draco hard on the head, Aurora rounded her eyes, while Ron and Harry were silent and quite surprised

"Don't you dare call out that silly hagrid again!!, you son of a bitch---evil!!", said Hermione then pulled out her wand, while Crabbe and Goyle were both frightened and at the same time confused

"Hermione" said Ron Lirih then clasped Hermione's hand to stop the action

"Ron's off!",

Draco then stood looking at Aurora for a bit and then ran back to the basement, "Come on!", Draco told Crabbe and Goyle, can Aurora see Draco's nose blushing and she's sure it'll bleed

"Hermione" said Ron again got a look of admiration by him

"You shouldn't stop me Ron" Hermione said

"Harry you have to avenge that son of a bitch in the Quidditch Final, defeat Slytherin!!" said Hermione, who was taken in by Harry

After they split up to each other's dormitories, before returning to Aurora's dormitory to meet Draco at Slytherin Dormitory, he brought a tray with a bowl of cold water, medicated ointments and also clean cloths and wipes

"Pureblood", Aurora said at the door of Slytherin House

He had entered this dormitory before in his second year, so he was not too surprised by the condition of the common room that looks dark and cold

"Oh look who's coming" said Theodore Nott, who was sitting with Daphne, Blaise and Pansy on the common room couch

"Do you know where Draco is?", asked Aurora to approach the four children

"He came in holding his nose and went straight into his room" Blaise said

"Thank you Blaise" said Aurora, just a step ahead, pansy called out to her

"Aurora", he turned his head and saw Pansy standing up and approached her.

"I want to apologize about that time, I shouldn't have demeaned your family" Pansy said, although her gestures and style of speech still sucks

"I've forgiven you for a long time",

"Oh, alright then, are we friends again?", asked Pansy

"Of course", Aurora replied with a smile on her lips

Aurora went from the common room and climbed the stairs up to the Draco room, until then stopped in front of a jet-black wooden door, which had a sign written on it, saying :

'never wake a sleeping dragon'

Aurora chuckled at the reading and her right hand stretched out to knock on the wooden door

"Who ?"

"It's me, Aurora", a few moments later the door opened to reveal a spacious room that was all green and black, a king-size mattress belonging to Draco and a neatly arranged table in his place, if I'm honest Draco's room is a little bigger than Aurora's in Hufflepuff Dormitory

"How is your nose, Pretty boy", Aurora said in a mocking tone and then closed the door, she walked closer to Draco and sat next to Draco who was sitting on the edge of the mattress by attaching a cloth to his nose

"How dare that damn mudblood hit me!" said Draco in a shady voice as he spoke with his nose covered

Aurora again chuckled at him, her hand outstretched to put the napkin next to her and her hand raised to remove the cloth from Draco's nose

"This handkerchief is too rough Draco, it would be dangerous to treat the wound with this" Aurora said, taking a fine cloth in her tray, dipping it in cold water in a bowl

Aurora's hands began to stretch out, wiping the blood on Draco's cheeks and nose, compressing his bruised nose gently and treating him with ointment, Draco's gaze continued to be fixed on Aurora's blue sea eyes, while Aurora He is unaware of Draco's gaze on her because of his focus on treating draco's nose

"I love you Aurora" Draco said suddenly breaking the silence by looking into Aurora's eyes, as if he had been hypnotized whenever he looked at Aurora or was close to her

Aurora looked at Draco at a glance then she just smiled shyly and resumed her activities to treat Draco's nose.
