Chapter 1: Hermione's point of view.

I saw it all.

Every moment.

And I was so frightened.

My heart was beating so fast as I climbed the stairs of the astronomy tower. I knew he'd be there; he loved the tower and if he felt low he'd climb the stairs and sit in the room, just gazing at the stars.

I was the first one who read the note.

He wrote one for each of his friends.

Tears escaped my tired eyes as I pushed open the heavy wooden door to reveal a raven haired boy climbing onto the ledge.

"Harry! Stop!"

The words I was dying to say were spoken for me by Ginny Weasley who pushed me out of the way to try and stop her suicidal crush.

Harry didn't eve turn, and moved closer to the edge.

Ginny sobbed and I opened my mouth to speak.

"Harry! What the fuck do you think you're playing at? Don't even joke about this!"

Ron had barged in and was moving towards Harry. He got near the ledge and a blue light flashed and Ron got thrown backwards against a wall, and this revealed that he too was crying.

For a third time, I opened my mouth to plead, when another person interrupted.

"You promised!" This voice was unrecognisable, and I tried to turn to look for its owner but my eyes were glued to the skinny boy in front of me, on the verge of death. The voice sounded more angry than upset, which was unusual.

"Look Harry, if you jump, I'm coming after you. Because I seriously can't live without you. In fact, if you're suicidal, I can't live with you. I'm gonna jump, right now, with you." My eyes widened and I found the strength to turn to my left to find the voice's owner. If this person was willing to give up their life for Harry, then they must love him a lot.

I turned to find a slim body with a pale face and blond hair and angry grey eyes.

Draco Malfoy.

I gasped and looked over to Ron and Ginny, Ron looked shell shocked and Ginny's sobs hadn't ceased.

Draco didn't look away from Harry's back as he sighed and walked over to the other window.

"You have a chance to stop me, Harry. Just say the words and I'll stay alive." When nothing came from Harry's direction, Draco jumped onto the ledge and stepped to the edge.

I noticed he didn't look down, but turned so that his back was facing the outside of the tower and his front could watch Harry,

"Don't make me do this; you know how much I hate heights!" Draco shouted.

No reply, but I heard a muffled sob coming from Harry's direction. Draco turned around and stepped closer to the edge.

"Bye Harry, see you whenever."

A lot happened in a few seconds. I screamed, because Draco thrust himself forward off of the ledge. Ginny sobbed loudly in protest and Ron squeaked in a way that made me want to hug him.

And Harry reaction.

"No!" He screamed, launching himself at Draco to stop him falling. He succeeded, thankfully, and held Draco in place by wrapping his arms around him. From what I could hear, Harry was crying, without even trying to cover it up.

"Don't... please!" He sobbed. I'd never seen this side of Harry before and I was scared and confused. Ron looked confused too, but Ginny was staring wide eyed at the pair.

"I wasn't going to jump you idiot! Why would I jump when I'm scared of heights?" Draco was laughing and trying to push Harry back into the tower.

They both had a lot of explaining to do.


Hermione,

You know how much I love you, and how much I cherished your friendship.

Please don't cry, I'm doing this for a reason. You don't need to know, nobody does. It's kinda personal.

You're really clever, you know that?

Don't let anyone tell you otherwise, especially Ron. Don't blush at that, we all know you fancy each other to bits!

Anyway, I promised myself I'd only write a small paragraph for each person. (You'll find some other people who will help you grieve)

Goodbye.

Harry


So, I MAY write a sequel, but there are 4 more P.O.V.'s to get through yet, so bear with me.
