Hermione P.O.V.
"WHERE IS IT MUDBLOOD? I want my sword!" roared Bellatrix.
"I don't know! I didn't find it!" cried Hermione.
"Crucio!"
She screamed out in pain as the curse hit her.
"I didn't! I swear!"
Draco P.O.V.
Draco watches from the side as his aunt Bella tortures the Mudblood.
The last thing I would want to do is watch Mudblood Granger be tortured.
But Aunt Bellatrix forced me to come, just so I can recognize Potter. Even then, I lied.
I just want all of this to end.
Sadly, it didn't because they found the sword in Granger's bag, which led to all of this. If she hadn't just told Bellatrix where the sword was from, I would be free to go and stop thinking of her.
He sighs as he admits to himself.
Yes I, pureblood Death Eater Draco Malfoy, is in love with Muggle-born witch Hermione Granger.
"Draco." He looks up to his aunt.
"Come here." She continued, walking away from Hermione for just a moment.
As he walked closer, he could see where Bellatrix had cut into her. His heart stopped momentarily at the thought of losing her to his aunt's torture.
"Finish the Mudblood. Finish her so there's one less of her kind."
He froze, not wanting to do it. He looked into the dark chocolate brown eyes that used to be filled with so much light.
"No."
Bellatrix leaned forward, trying to allow him to take back his words, "Excuse me?"
"No! I won't kill her!"
Hermione P.O.V.
Her eyes widened in response to Draco's voice.
What happened to the real Draco Malfoy?
Then again...I changed him, if only slightly, in sixth year and we became close than we should have been. I guess one could say we were in love. At least I was_ I am.
She looked into his beautiful gray eyes and her heart leaped slightly.
He is too!
"Awww...does Draco care for the little Mudblood?" Bellatrix croons. "Do you desire to join her?!"
She pushed him down.
"NO!" Hermione screamed at Bellatrix, "Don't do this! He's your own blood!"
Big mistake.
Bellatrix turned on her.
"Oh, the Mudblood cares for you, too. How sweet! But how, Draco, do you react to this?"
She grabbed Hermione's arm and before anyone can blink, she drags the knife through her arm.
She screamed and she can hear Harry and Ron apparaite , forgetting her there.
Tears flowed down her face, knowing all have left her.
Suddenly, she felt a force lift her and carry her as her vision goes dark.
Draco P.O.V.
He froze as Bellatrix jumped on Hermione and carved into her skin.
Before he can react, he heard the pop of appariation and he gritted his teeth.
Bloody Gryffindors left her here!
That seemed to only fuel the fire as he lunged at Bellatrix, knocking her off Hermione. He scooped her up and ran towards his room.
Once he entered, he turned and locked the doors. Setting her down on his bed and he looked to the ceiling.
"WEASLEY! POTTER!"
They appeared with Dobby the House Elf to take. Without a word, he began to help them when the door burst open to show Lucius, Nacrissa, Bellatrix and the Dark Lord, all fuming.
He stole a glance at the intruders as he pushed them on, "GO! KEEP HER SAFE!"
He heard Hermione cry out as they disappeared and turned to face his fate.
Hermione P.O.V.
As Harry and Ron appear, she awoke and the door seemed to fly off it's hinges by Death Eaters and Voldemort.
Harry and Ron left Draco as he screamed, "GO! KEEP HER SAFE!"
We spinned around, leaving Draco behind.
The last thing she can scream before he faded completely from sight was, "DRACO!"
End.
Sorry this is my first story published and if it terrible then you can keep that to yourself.
I own nothing (sadly).
