foxyfanart - Measure Of A Man by inadaze22 Chapter 9
infoAbout This Title
A noise that sounded something like resignation escaped Malfoy only moments before he laid down. Kicked off his shoes and gave in.That Malfoy was asleep and breathing deeply by the time she stood over him was the truest testament to his exhaustion.On his side and knees bent, he used his arms for a pillow. He was fully dressed but had no blanket for warmth.The sight was as lonely as Scorpius looking out the window.She gave a mournful exhale for his inevitable aches and pains. “You’ll be hurting in the morning for sure.” Maybe she would leave a potion for him on the island." Definitely should sleep in a bed." It was a joke, but Malfoy's mumbled words followed her like a shadow, growing heavier until they ached. They stayed after she found a throw blanket to cover him with. Waited while she turned off the lights and shut the door. Haunted her in the echoing space between awareness and sleep."I can't."
