I still hear your voice when you sleep next to me
I still feel your touch in my dream
Forgive me, my weakness, but I don't know why
Without you it's hard to survive
'Cause every time we touch, I get this feeling
And every time we kiss, I swear I could fly
Can't you feel my heart beat fast? I want this to last!
I need you by my side.
'Cause every time we touch, I feel this tightening
And every time we kiss, I reach for the sky
Can't you hear my heart beat so? I can't let you go!
I want you in my life.
Your arms are my castle,
Your heart is my sky
They wipe away tears that I cry.
The good and the bad times
We've been through then more
You make me right when I fall
'Cause every time we touch, I get this feeling
And every time we kiss, I swear I can fly
Can't you feel my heart beat fast? I want this to last!
I need you by my side.
'Cause every time we touch, I feel this tightening
And every time we kiss, I reach for the sky
Can't you hear my heart beat so? I can't let you go!
I want you in my life.
'Cause every time we touch, I get this feeling
And every time we kiss, I swear I can fly
Can't you feel my heart beat fast? I want this to last!
I need you by my side.
Every time We Touch -Cascada
Three years have passed since their final year at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.
At the time – in their 7th year – the most unlikely couple was in love. But not everything can stay perfect, no matter how much you try. This couple had fallen apart by one person.
Pansy Parkinson
.: Flashback :.
Hermione Granger, Head Girl, was walking the halls after dinner in the Great Hall. She had found out some wonderful news right before she departed and couldn't wait to tell the one man she ever loved about this wonderful news. She roamed the halls, looking for this man. She turned a corner to findhim – only with another girl.
Pansy was snogging Draco Malfoy – Hermione's boyfriend.
Draco pulled away as quickly as he saw her.
"Hermione!" he said, pushing Pansy aside.
Hermione backed away slowly, the hot tears prickling her chocolate brown eyes.
Draco took a step toward her, hoping to catch her before –
She ran. Ran far away from where she was. She couldn't believe he did this to her. He promised he wouldn't do anything to hurt her, and he just did! She couldn't understand how he would do something like this! After all they had been through. She gave him the most important thing a girl could give.
Her virginity.
And this is the thanks she gets.
Being cheated on with the school whore.
She thought of the possibilities and looked them over and over in her head as she ran though the halls.
She finally choose…
She ran to McGonagall's office and knocked on the door, tears staining her face.
She soon opened the door "Yes Miss Granger?" she asked.
She finally realized the tears still streaming down her face and let her in. Hermione sat in the chair in front of the desk that was once Dumbledore's.
"Professor McGonagall… I want out." Hermione stated firmly.
The old professor looked at her questionably.
"Pardon me?" she asked
"I want out - Outof the Wizarding World. Out of this new life I have developed. I do not wish to stay in the world that has hurt me so much in just one day. I want to leave… leave this place because I will not be able to stand being in the one place I had grown, practicing something I loved. I am giving up the most precious thing I have ever cherished. My magic."
McGonagall stared, open mouthed, at Hermione.
"What?" she asked shocked, "You cant! You're the key to defeating Voldemort. You're a powerful witch Hermione, we need you!"
Hermione shook her head. "I wouldn't be able to go out into battle in my condition anyways. But I must do this Professor… I just have to"
The old professor stared into her best student. Out of all her years in teaching, she was the best. No one could excel so fast, in so little time.
McGonagall understood, and nodded her head.
"Where do you want to stay, Miss Granger?"
Hermione looked up and thought about the one place she was always happy as a child.
"There's a small village about an hour outside of London. I was planning on moving there after this year, but it's sooner then I thought. My parents bought me a house there as a gift for my 7th year."
The professor looked at Hermione and smiled. "I'll come and put wards up. For apparation, tracking charms, and protection."
Hermione nodded and got up. She hugged her old professor "Thank you!"
Hermione ran out of the room toward hers.
As she entered the Heads' Common Room, she saw Draco sitting on the couch.
At the sound of the portrait closing, he jumped up.
"Hermione!" he said, running toward her.
She ignored him and continued to walk to her room.
Once inside, she packed everything of hers: clothes, muggle electronics, personal items, pictures, and jewelry.
As she zipped up her suitcase, she saw the ring on her ring finger, shimmering in the light.
She grabbed her bag andwalked down the stairs, another tear falling.
Draco was at the bottom of the stairs, and he watched her come down, shocked.
"Hermione?"
She put her bag down near the door and turned back to him.
She took the ring off of her finger and threw it to him, like it was worthless.
"Goodbye, Malfoy. It wasn't a pleasure meeting you" she said before leaving the room.
Draco stared at the retreating back of the girl he loves. Then he looked down at the ring at his feet. He bent down and picked it up.
It was their engagement ring… everything they had planned was ruined.
.: End Flashback :.
Three years had passed by quickly for Hermione. She ended up having a beautiful little girl a few months after she had settled into her new house.
Genevieve Malfoy, Hermione's daughter, had curly, platinum, blonde hair and silver gray eyes with flecks of blue in them.
Hermione loved her dearly, but she always reminded her of her father.
Today, though, something happened.
Hermione had received a letter by owl. Something she hasn't had in a long time.
Dear Miss Granger,
I fear that we have no Transfiguration teacher here at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. It has come to me that, after your "disappearance", the Wizarding World has not been the same. We need you now, back in our World. Please come to teach these students, for they need someone like you. Your the smartest student Hogwarts has had since the Founders. You may have been gone for three years, but that doesn't mean you still don't have it. Write your answer back A.S.A.P.
Minerva McGonagall
Headmistress
Hermione was shocked. She was being asked to go back into the Wizarding World, to teach at the one place she called home.
She looked in the envelope and saw a newspaper clipping from the Daily Prophet
Hogwarts Genius Gone Missing
Hermione Granger, the top student at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, has gone missing and no one knows where she has gone. It was the night of June 2nd that she had gone missing. Students say she last saw her running down the corridors, crying. Everyone knows the Head Girl to be strong so something terrible must have happened for her to cry. The theory is that she ran away from the Wizarding World and, with the brains the she's got, put up many wards to protect her from being found. Hermione Granger has been successful in hiding from her true calling.
Draco Malfoy, her fiancé, has been devastated since he heard of the news. He says he thinks he knows why she has left; yet he hasn't told us the reason. The young woman has been missing for a total of23 hours and yet no sign has been made. Minerva McGonagall, Headmistress of Hogwarts, has not made a comment since. Hermione Granger had disappeared right under her nose, and she has no comment about missing her best student.
Miss Granger is has been the top student of Hogwarts since her 1st year there. She is a muggleborn witch yet she can beat a pureblood in a duel any day. Hermione had spent most of her time reading books, both muggle and magical. She had achieved so much in such little time and it still amazes people today at how she did it. But her being a powerful witch will always be a mystery to us, until we find Miss Granger and bring her back to her home.
June 3rd - Rita Skeeter
Hermione dropped the newspaper cutting and ran to her stash of magical items, in which she tried to hide from herself. She quickly wrote a short letter to Professor McGonagall.
Dear Professor,
I will take your offer as Transfiguration teacher. If you wouldn't mind, I would like to come back early so I can practice more on what I have missed over the time I have been gone. I would also like to know if I could bring my daughter, Genevieve, to Hogwarts. I can't just abandon her. I'm sure you understand that. If so, could you please ask Madam Pomfrey if she would watch her while I am teaching?
Please and Thank You,
Hermione Granger
Soon to be Transfiguration Teacher (I hope)
Hermione quickly sent the letter with the Tawny owl that came previously.
She smiled as a reply came minutes later
Of course! See you in an hour or so, Hermione
Professor McGonagall
Hermione smiled. She loved Hogwarts and she couldn't wait to go back.
But the thought of seeing Genevieve's father again was frightening for her.
She put the thought aside as she ran up the stairs and packed a suitcase for herself and Genevieve, who was sitting on Hermione's bed, watching her mum run around everywhere.
