TWO WEEKS LATER

Harry looked across the table full of books at Hermione, the book she was reading coved his view of her face. He was tired of reading but he picked up the book he was reading and started to read again. He had promised Hermione that he would help her in anyway he could. He could see in her eyes how much she loved Draco. He was surprised at her choice because of all the shit Draco had given her in the past but she was smart and most have her reason. Or he at leased hoped so. The last thing he wanted to see was her get hurt. And he knew that despite Draco's imminent death a cured would be needed before the disease spread and killed thousands of wizards.

Hermione's POV

Hermione finally looked up from her book when she heard the rumble of Harry stomach. She then turned her head to look at the clock on the wall behind her. She was very surprised that the two of them had been there for almost 8 hours just looking through books.

"Harry." Hermione said.

He looked up. "Yes?"

"We have been here almost 8 hours and I can tell your hungry. Why don't you go get something to eat for the two of us and meet me at Draco's. I would like to check on him." She said with a small smile.

"Okay. I think that might be a good idea. Anything you want to eat?" He asked as he stood up and stretched, he'd been sitting too long.

Hermione took a moment before answering. "Um...How about pizza? I haven't had pizza in a while."

"Okay. I will see you at Draco's." He popped out to get the food.

Hermione go up and walked over to the librarian sitting at a small desk near the front of the library. Once the librarian saw her she looked up with a smile. "Mrs. Granger?" she said Hermiones name questioningly. "How may I help you?"

Hermione smiled back at the small woman. She was what you always imagined a librarian to look like. Light gray hair up in a bun, glasses, and a long light green dress with a dark blue sweater. "Yes I need to leave but I still have some books I need to look over, so I'd like to check them out."

"Oh yes of course. Anything you need!" The librarian got up and started scanning the books Hermione needed. Once she was finished Hermione grabbed everything up and left for Draco's house. "Harry?" She called "Harry?" there was no answer. Hermione figured he must still be getting pizza.

She set down the books on a small table in the living room. Then proceeded upstairs to Draco's room. Right as she was about to open the door she heard a small popping noise from behind her. She turned to see Deedee.

"Hello Mrs. Hermione." She said with a big smile.

"Hello Deedee." Hermione said with a small smile. "How is he doing?" She asked wiping the smile from her face and getting serious.

"He no wake up still. But other doctor said he's stable." The small elf told her.

"Okay. Thank you Deedee. I am going to sit with him for a while. Let Harry know I will be down in a while once he gets here."

Hermione left Deedee and walked into the room. Draco was laying in bed. Same as the last time she had seen him only in different clothing. She tried to hold in the tears that rushed to her eyes, but nothing could stop it. Looking at him laying on his bed almost lifeless was hard for her to look at. It had been two weeks since she had seen him last. She had thought she could handle her emotions but nothing could stop the sadness she felt. It almost felt as if someone was squeezing her heart. She laid down next to him on the bed and rested her head on his chest. She could hear the beat of his heart which was more comforting then she ever would have guessed.

She laid there for so long that she actually feel asleep. It wasn't until Harry tapped her on the shoulder that she woke up. She looked around a little at first before realizing where she was. "You feel asleep." Harry told her.

"Oh." She smiled and slowly got up. "How long have I been sleeping?" she asked.

"For about an hour. You looked tired so I figured I would let you sleep for a little." He told her. "The pizza is a little cold now but I asked Deedee to heat it back up for you."

"Thank you Harry. I couldn't ask for a better friend." She gave him a hug after getting off the bed. The two left the room, ready to start another round of searching in books.

Draco's POV

Draco was laying still in the bed, unable to move his body. It had always been thought that the disease caused a person to into a coma like state which was mostly true however the difference was that Draco was still awake. He could still think and use his mind. He could hear and feel, but he could not move. His body was useless. He was stuck in the frozen state, hoping that Hermione would find a way to save him and quickly. He was trying to hold on and stay strong. He wanted to live. He needed to live, for her.
