*Flashback*

Hermione and Draco were alone. Finally. They both looked at each other, wondering when to start talking. They had become best friends over a period of one school year. And now, without knowing, they had fallen in love. But Draco, being a Malfoy, could not bring himself to say the three words his heart had known for so long. And as for Hermione, her pride would just not let her say anything to him.

*End of flashback*


But I'm not going to wait when a moment can vanish so fast

"Draco! Please don't go! You can be on our side!"

"I can't!"

"Draco, I love.."

"No, please don't." He turned back to face her for the last time. "Don't." Suddenly, his face was devoid of emotion. If she did say the last word his plan would have been ruined. He would have surrendered to her and stayed by her side.

'Cuz every kiss is a kiss you can never get back

He had loved her, and he still did. The only reason he was leaving was so that Hermione would be safe. Lowering his lips onto hers one last time, he pulled himself together, letting one last tear drop from his face.

"Goodbye. Do remember that from this day on, we are nothing but enemies."

"DRACO!!!"

Lift me up in your eyes
If you told me that is what Heaven is, well, you'd be right
I've been waiting forever for this
This is the night

The war was nearly over. Voldemort was near to death. However, just as he crumbled to the ground, he lifted up his wand and pointed it at Harry. He muttered a deadly curse under his breath and just as a bright green beam shot out of the tip of his wand, he fell to the floor. At this moment, Hermione ran forward and pushed Harry aside. She fell to the floor in great pain. She began coughing up blood. All the deatheaters fell to the floor. All except one. He ran over to Hermione.

Lifting his hood up to reveal his face, Draco shed tears once again.

"Hermione!"

When the answer to all my dreams is as close as a touch away
Why am I here holding back what I'm trying to say?

Hermione weakly opened her eyes.

"Draco…I…love…you.." she managed to whisper.

"I…I…"

Why can't I just tell her I love her?


Lift me up in your eyes
If you told me that is what Heaven is, well, you'd be right
Hold me close to your heart
I would go with you to the ends of the Earth and we'll fly
I've been waiting forever for this
This is the night

This is the one chance I have left. After all these years of agony and waiting, my chance is finally here. So why aren't I talking?

Just as he opened his mouth to speak, Draco felt Hermione's grip on him weaken, and finally, her hand dropped lifelessly to her sides.

"NOO!!! HERMIONE!!! I LOVE YOU!"

It was all too late.

This is the night where we capture forever and our tomorrows begin
After tonight, we will never be lonely again

This is the night

Looking at Hermione's picture, that familiar scene of the battle rose in Draco's head again. This was the night, a year ago, that Hermione had died.

This was the night.
