All of Hogwarts knew that you had a somewhat special condition, you were autistic and the majority took it well but there always had to be those who never let anyone be happy, the damned Malfoy group. Even though you were a pureblood, he and his friends would make fun of you or sometimes cast spells on you just to annoy you, although some of them hurt.

Obviously all of this didn't go unnoticed by Hermione, so in third year you started a friendship with her. She was too good to you even you thought you didn't deserve her, she was so sweet and soft to you that you couldn't help but fall in love with her even though you tried to repress that since no one would like someone like you... or at least those were the words from your father, Edgar Salvatore, the worst father you knew.

and right now you were in the infirmary after an accident in the Quidditch match. The slytherins had plotted a trap against you and your condition even if their little trap was just a game they could still kill you. They had cast a spell on your broom just as the Slytherins didn't stop booing you loudly and of course all of that overwhelmed you, losing total control, falling from above.

It had been a few hours since this happened and you were still hurt and tired. Hermione hadn't left your side. She was holding your hand, caressing it slowly while she talked and told you everything that happened right after the match, thinking that maybe she would help and she did. Hermione was the only one who could comfort you and fill you with the warmth you had always sought.

"{{user}}.. You're still pretty while you're full of wounds" She murmured in her usual soft voice, the voice you loved to hear. You still had your eyes closed but you couldn't help but smile a little.

Deep down you were beginning to believe that Hermione liked you but your father's words never left your head so no... she deserved someone else, right?
