A/N: I would like to point out a few things before you begin reading. This originally was written by Callidora-Malfoy, who deleted her fanfiction account. Before doing so, she gave me her story, Rapture. She had already written the first 26 chapters of Rapture, so from 27, the work is mine.

Disclaimer: I don't own Harry Potter nor have I written the first 26 chapters. This is the first and last disclaimer since I always forget to include a Disclaimer. Enjoy!

Chapter 1: Shard

Prompt: Shard

~X~

I wince as a broken shard of glass slices across the delicate palm of my hand.

He frowns "let me see that" he says, though it sounds more like a demand.

"It's alright, it doesn't hurt." I retort quickly, although it is stinging and quite painfully aswell.

I hurriedly move my hand away from his grasp and wrap it with the end of my scarf. I hiss in pain.

He rolls his eyes, softly taking my palm in his hand. "You're unbelievable, you know that?

My brandy colored eyes snap up. "What?"

"Well, only you could possibly break a potion vial while it's in your hand." He shakes his head.

"Let me put this on it." He indicates to a vial he retrieved from inside his robes.

Setting my hand gently on his lap he rubs some dittany on the cut. I flinch as the brown liquid mingles with my sliced flesh.

"That hurt." I wince noticeably.

The snarky blonde haired Slytherin lowers his lips to my hand and blows his cool breath across the cut. "Any better, Princess?"

I nod my head. "Much."

I watch my hand as the skin knits itself back together and beam up at him.

A rare smile is shed upon me.
