"I've always been there for you when you needed me!" Hermione screamed, as tears fell from her eyes, soaking her now stained jumper. "Always…" She choked out between sobs.

"I'm sorry… I can't do this anymore" I whispered back as I looked up into Hermione's soft brown eyes, willing for her to understand.

I swear if it was possible I could've heard my heart break in two as I watched the small tears rise up in her eyes and flow gently down her cheeks. I HATED hurting her.

"So this is it… it's over…?" She whispered, not taking her eyes from the stone cold floor.

"Yes…" I breathed tears stinging at my own eyes, but I wasn't going to show them in front of her.

"Please don't do this to me" Hermione begged, her eyes pleading with mine.

"I'm sorry" I told her, as I looked away.

"I HATE you!" Hermione screamed as she turned to flee out of the empty classroom.

I knew she didn't mean it, but those three words… A knife to my heart.

"I love you" I called after her before she had a chance to even open the door. "I just can't be around you."

And with one more apologetic smile I turned around letting her go. Letting my love go.

I rolled up my sleeves and stared down at my now blood stained wrists, the place where the dark mark was etched into my skin. I'd tried, tried everything to get rid of it… But that was never going to happen.

I wouldn't, no; I couldn't bring Hermione down with me! I couldn't let that happen to her.

Because I knew I was going to die.

Okay, so my first ever Malfoy or Hermione fic! Let alone Malfoy/Hermione… I don't usually right romances haha. So yeah please review, tell me what I could've improved on, if you liked it, hell even if you hated it! Let me know

So should this stay as a one shot or should I make it into multichapters?
