Please don't sue me, I do not own any of the characters used here. This was made in response to the HMS Leather and Libraries Shipper overboard contest.

A hundred days have made me older Since the last time that i saw your pretty face a thousand lies have made me colder and I don't think i can look at this the same But all the miles that separate Disappear now when I'm dreaming of your face

A train leading to nowhere rolled into the platform. With heavy steps Draco hesitantly stepped in.

"Your hair looks really pretty like that", he whispered into her ear.

"Well you would know wouldn't you?"

"How could I never look", he closed the distance with a light kiss

I'm here without you baby But you're still on my lonely mind I think about you baby And i dream about you all the time I'm here without you baby But you're still with me in my dreams And tonight it's only you and me

He finally reached an empty compartment. Stains still lay present on the worn upholstery. It had been a long time before he let himself drift into an uneasy slumber. Months of uncertainty had conditioned his mind to sallow thoughts of things never to be. Faces that would never be remembered and stories that would never be told.

"Did it have to be like that!", she screeched at him. Her fists balled in frustration as she beat his chest.

"There was no other way," he told her flatly as he left her to her misery.

He woke up with a start as a stranger stepped into the compartment. It took one look to recognize the haggard look on Harry's once happy face.

The miles just keep rollin' As the people leave their way to say hello I've heard this life was overrated But I hope that it gets better as we go

A thousand memories came flooding back. Flashes of green light haunted his thoughts. Screams and horrid darkness enveloped his thoughts. Who would have thought that one moment would change every thing?

"What are you waiting for? Run GO!!! NOW!," Draco looked at her pleadingly. Hermione stood staring at the limp heap that was once Ron.

"I can't lose you too", she cried back weakly, "Nothing much left... now". Hermione murmured in a strange illness. Draco clung to her desperately pushing her out of the way. It was futile in the whisper of a green flash.

Draco's eyes welled at the thought. No nightmare could near his thoughts, his darkest thoughts. He had to, Ron was one of them.

Everything I know, and anywhere I go It gets hard but it won't take away my love And when the last one falls When it's all said and done It gets hard but it won't take away my love

He was empty. His only solace was in dreams that would call forever to his soul.

"I love you Hermione", tears rolled down his cheek as he cradled her close.

"Remember that day by the lake, I'll miss that...",

"Please, don't talk like that, we will see it again tomorrow, on a prettier day", He pleaded.

"Someday we will again", Hermione's breathing became ragged as she peacefully smiled, letting down silent tears. Draco only held her closer as she softly fell silent and limp.

Draco's body was wracked with sobs as he fingered a simple silver band. The deaths, the battles, everything was not worth the loss of her smile. It was hard. He fell back asleep in a peaceful solace dreaming of his love and good memories of better times.

I'm here without you baby But you're still on my lonely mind I think about you baby And I dream about you all the time I'm here without you baby But you're still with me in my dreams Tonight girl it's only you and me An ethereal light filled the compartment. In his sleep, Draco felt a light caress upon his face; for the first time in months he smiled and knew he was no longer alone.
