Hermione

"What do you mean I'm in her custody! I don't need a babysitter! I'm fine! I'm absolutely okay! I can heal myself even if anything happens, okay?! I DON'T NEED a babysitter!" 

I winced as Malfoy screeched endlessly to Head Healer Crax. My ears hurt already, and Head Healer Crax looked about ready to jab herself with a needle.

"Mr Malfoy," she said primly, "I'm afraid that the fact that you are here, in St. Mungos, receiving treatment, clearly undermines your argument. As I said before, due to your... recently observed tendencies of a sensitive nature...you are going to have to stay with a responsible and capable guardian for at least half a year before your complete release."

"Will it kill you to say that I tried to commit suicide?" Malfoy smirked, looking almost bored.

Head Healer Crax looked comically affronted.

I held in a giggle.

"I COMMITTED SUICIDE! I FAILED! NOW SUE ME!" Malfoy yelled suddenly, flailing his arms around in an exaggerated manner.

I muffled my laugh by pretending to cough.

Head Healer Crax threw a syringe at Malfoy.

It jammed into the headboard of his bed, right next to his ear.

"Next time, you'll be a lot less lucky." she growled. "Now go with Miss Granger. NOW!"

Malfoy reluctantly got up and followed me out the door.

Draco

"You are not taking me anywhere." I growled at Granger the second the doors closed behind me.

The doors were flung open not half a second later.

Head Healer Crax poked her head out from the hospital and poked at me with a finger. 

"I'll be watching you, so you better go with Miss Granger wherever she goes, because if you don't, she's going to tell me, and you are going to stay with...ME!"

She winked at Granger, and Granger had the audacity to laugh.

Given, it was short and quickly died out, but still...Why are all the women so against me? What happened to the times when they all swooned whenever they saw me?

RIght...that stopped when the Malfoys supported the wrong side. The losing side.

I glowered at Head Healer Crax with my trademark Malfoy sneer. Ugly, bitchy old crone!

"Accio Draco Malfoy's wand!" She grinned at me with morbid delight as my wand flew out of my hands and into hers.

"Now, chop chop, move along with Miss Granger." She clapped gleefully. "Remember to report to me monthly about his progress!" 

Granger nodded, grabbed my arm, and disapparated from the hospital.

..............

We landed in a dusty and dark alley. I coughed and sputtered at the sudden disapparation. "Geez, Granger, give me a warning next time you do something stupid like landing us in a weird ditch, okay?" I growled.

She shrugged. "You mean you actually wanted to stay with Head Healer Crax?"

"Ha! You didn't want to stay with her either, did you?" I snarked, thinking I had one over her.

She shrugged again. "Not particularly, no." She admitted. 

And then she walked off, leaving me gaping at her in the alley.

"You coming or not?" She yelled over her shoulder.

"It's not like I've got a choice!" I yell back.

"Well, get a move on then!"

I stalked after her, grumbling all the way.
