Narcissa pov

As she came into my sight I saw a small girl in every way. She looked precious in her sleeping state and I understand why Draco's cares for her so. The visibly painful collection of bruises however blemished the fragile image into one that's already broken. The best top on her was scruffy making me understand Draco put in on her in her sleep, in turn making me wonder if she really was asleep or passed out involuntarily.
Narcissa: "wake her my boy, she would be uneasy if our first meeting was one sided like this" Draco understood and climbed onto the bed and sat y/n up against himself before he tried waking her up. It was unfamiliar but sweet seeing Draco so gentle, he looked like he was in his element when, after whispering and tapping her didn't work, he traced his finger down the center of her palm to the tip of her finger and after making a weak fist she began to wake up.

Y/n pov

I fluttered my eyes open and felt myself in Draco's arms making me smile, but as I fully regained consciousness I noticed a woman. Before I could freak out Draco spoke reassuringly.
Draco: "my mother insisted on treating you when I ran into her, she's very skilled and trustworthy"
Narcissa: "hey sweetie, my name's Narcissa, no need to be anxious the last time I accidentally vanished someone's bone was 10 years ago when Draco broke his finger"
Draco: "it was all floppy and disgusting, it took her three tries to fix the bone"
Narcissa: "haha true but I've gotten far better since then have I not"
Draco: "yes, she was a nurse at St Mungo's hospital for magical maladies and injuries"
Narcissa: "right so what can I do for you today sweetie"
Y/n: "umm I got... I don't really know"
Narcissa: "well then we'll just do a diagnosis spell first" many spells later I noticed bruises on me fading and at last the pain in my side was gone to. I was enjoying Draco drawing soothing circles on my hand when Narcissa spoke again.
Narcissa: "I can get rid of these too if you want" I looked where she was looking and realized she saw all the scars on my arm, I didn't reply for a little so Draco took incentive
Draco: "darling, you don't have to if you don't want to, but you don't deserve them if that's what your thinking." That seemed to clear all my thoughts.
Y/n: "I want to, I want them gone"
Narcissa: "so be it" she spoke another charm and the scars began to fade away, it was different to when I merely masked them for Draco, I didn't feel anything then, but this time I could, I could feel the scar tissue contorting and dissolving under my flesh as new perfect skin tissue took its place. I smiled slightly then felt the same sensation in my thigh as those disappeared as well.

Narcissa: "I'll let you rest up now, your all healed up but I just did a lot of spells on you so that still might have worn you out"
Y/n: "thank you and I'm sure I'll be fine it can't be anything like the crucio curse"
Draco: "what did you just say" shit what did I just say
Y/n: "it was er-"
Draco: "wait no let me rephrase that who used the crucio curse on you"
Y/n: "I um"
Narcissa: "sweetie, it's alright to tell us, we won't be dramatic, trust me I can restrain my son" she said trying to lift the mood a little and it worked so I confessed
Y/n: "these two girls who follow pansy around were bothering me during Christmas break and we'll yeah"
Draco: "don't worry Snape will expell them so hard they drown in the great lake"
Narcissa: "also ministry of magic will be on them for using an unforgivable curse"
Y/n: "haha thanks ma'am"
Narcissa: "oh god please that makes me sound like an old woman- don't you dare Draco" she quickly cuts her son off before he can comment "please call me Narcissa"
Y/n: "okay thank you Narcissa"
Narcissa: "you're very welcome, now get that rest I was talking about and Draco will bring you down for lunch in 20" she shut the door behind her and I breathed out a sigh of relief
Y/n: "well at least you mum likes me, not a great first impression though"
Draco: "I wouldn't worry about it, if you want you can dress up for lunch and remake that impression."
Y/n: "omg yeah I did actually bring an outfit"
Draco: "you ran away from home, but still managed to bring an outfit for meeting my parents"
Y/n: "well getting it was what got me in trouble in the first place and if I left it outside my window for longer I'm scared it would get rained on" I say as I get off the bed and fish out the balled up outfit in my hoodie. I held up the lace top and wiggled it showing it to Draco.
Draco: "I wouldn't think that it netting the parents kind of attire..."
Y/n: "I know Avery picked it out but she said it would be fine once I put this over the top" I pulled out the front tie cardigan and layered it on top the top to show him. Then I held up the skirt and held it to my hips to model it, then the heels.
Draco: "gotta say, it does seem like the kind of Slytherin style outfit my parents would appreciate on my future wife" I ignored the wife comment for the sake of my weak heart
Y/n: "thank you"
