Draco had been avoiding everyone all week. The article about his cousin tugged at something inside him he didn't want to consider. That it was the same cousin who had been the vehicle of his ridicule amongst Death Eaters only made his confusion worse. Or perhaps that's why he felt something in the first place. Teddy Lupin would never have found a way into his mind otherwise.
However, days of scoffing and chiding himself only made the issue more prevalent in his mind. We become our obsessions.
Draco decided to look for his mother. She'd been telling him he could turn to her for more things, that he should be turning to her. Though he wasn't completely certain she truly meant it. However, there was only one way to find out. Currently, that way was leading him to the music room, where he heard the piano. He hoped it was her. She was not the only one versed in it by far. Still, he had hoped to find her, not someone else. He wasn't sure if any of the others could even relate, nor did he want to ask. Well, perhaps Regulus would, but still.
He entered the room quietly, breathing only slightly easier when he realized she was alone. The constriction in his chest would not release, though, as he coughed politely.
"Mother? I'm sorry to interrupt you. Do you have a few minutes?"
