"No....!!!!" came a resounding scream, as Hermione flung her body towards Draco. All he saw was Hermione looking at him with a smile on her face before she collasped to the cold ground. A sudden silence filled the room.

"What have u done! " he screamed as he turned to face his father.

"Helped you i'm sure...destroying what had become your weakness " sneered Lusious, his face full of satisfaction. It definitly had not been his intention to kill her....yet, but since she came willingly so did he.

His knees gave way as he fell to the ground laying Hermione on his lap...." No you havent ...you've destroyed my strength.." his tears began to fall silently.

"Hermione...please...talk to me " he whispered as he held her close.

"Draco..." she answered her essence of life slowly slipping from this earth.

"Why...why did you do it Hermione...wh..why?" he asked her, his voice trembling with fear.

"I...I wasen't going to let you...let you die now..was i ?" she joked .

"Hermione I'm Not Joking! I need to save you...lets go ...i'll..i'll-" but he was interupted by her faint voice.

"Draco" she muttered as she rose her hand and carrased his face...as if using touch to remember his features "always so serious.."

He lifted his hand and held on to hers..."No...you can't go...what am i...going to do.." his voice breaking.

"You, you will live..." she replied as a smile crept on to her pale face.

"Not without... you " with a look of determination he picked her up and carried her away.

"You won't save her" lusious cried out.

"Hermione..open your eyes...don't fall asleep ...please just hold on" he cried as he made his way put of the dungons.

" Draco...Draco...i can't see you.." her voice shaked with fear, tightening her arms around his neck

" Hold on, we're almost there." he pleaded her.

A burst of light pierced through their eyes as he stepped out into the light.

"Hermione... " he asked not stopping in his steps

"hmm?"

"I love you"

He didn't hear a reply but saw a tear trinkle down her face onto her smile. Her arms around him became lifeless as it fell to her sides

"No..no.." his voice echoed through the woods. He knees gave way and fell to the ground as he slowly laid her on the lustious grass.

He kissed her smile for the last time, as his tears fell on to her face.
