"Hermione, MOVE!" a voice screamed behind her. A second later she was pushed to the ground by a blonde head and a green flash passed over them.

"AVADA KEDAVRA" shouted whoever was on top of her and the death eater was no more.

"Hermione, oh my god you 're alive" the person hugged her tightly. "I thought I'd lose you"

"Malfoy?" she whispered.

"Please don't call me that. My father was Malfoy and I am not proud to be related to him."

"Draco, then. Why did you save me. I thought you were a death eater."

"I didn't want to be one. The bastard forced me. I wasn't brave enough to deny."

"Then what… "

"When I saw you that day at the manor I… I don't know. Something changed and I swore to myself that I wouldn't stay with them anymore. And then the battle started and I just knew who I should fight with."

"Oh."

"I just rendered the smartest witch of our age speechless, didn't I ?" he gave her a small smile.

"Uhh … I just didn't expect to hear this come from you."

"It's true, I never believed what they wanted me to. Sorry for the umm… the mudblood thing. I had to keep up appearances."

"It's okay I guess…"she said not very sure of herself.

After a long and uncomfortable silence and while Draco was still on top of Hermione holding her tightly, Hermione spoke again:

"Errr … Ma- Draco…could you please get up. You're crashing me."

"No, I don't think so. I wanted to be close to you like this for years. I am not letting you go now." He answered as he brought his forehead almost on top of hers.

"What do you …. mhmhmm" And just like that his lips were on top of hers.

And it was paradise for both of them. Until a black figure came upon them and Avada Kedavra was heard two more times that day.

The one was heard when Harry Potter defeated the Dark Lord.

The other was said by Draco when he killed his father a millisecond before it was too late.

"Oh my god, you just killed your father!" she exclaimed scared but awed.

"He was going to kill you." He whispered.

"And… and why do you care?" she swallowed.

"Because you mean so much more to me than him, Hermione. I … I think I've been in love with you for years. I think that your smiling face was the one thing that kept me from going crazy all this time."

"You mean this?"

"More than anything. Is there a chance you could forgive me for everything I've done to you through the years?"

"I already forgave you when you saved me." She smiled.

"May I kiss you again, then?" he asked hopefully.

"You don't even need to ask." She answered and he leaned in to capture her lips in the sweetest kiss. When she kissed him back he was the happiest man alive.
