character/pairing: Hermione/Draco
rating: T
author's notes/warnings: Very AU for the fact that this couple never happened.


It's positively impossible.

No one would have ever imagined it, and at times neither can she.

Leaning over him, she kisses soft blonde hair with sincerity.

He doesn't have to do this, doesn't have to leave her.

She knows she can convince him, because isn't that why he needs her to love him?

"I'll hide you away. The world will cease to know you've ever existed. I can do it," she murmurs, watching him bit his lip.

It's easier to convince him that she has that much power.

One day she'll be able to convince even herself of the well-crafted lie. She's supposed to be a genius.

Why can't she stop him?

"You can't do that…you'd never find me," he sleepily suggests, skin paler then usual.

He thinks she's simply joking, but she's not.

She'd give up magic to save him, she would do it.

Wiping at her eyes, she doesn't want him to see her feelings betray her.

Grey eyes study her under the candlelight, and he's serious.

"I'm not going to have my mum die just to be with you," he whispers in the hard silence.

It's true; he'd do anything for her.

But he'd do more for his mum, she thinks.

Isn't that the type of bloke she wants? One who would give up his life to say someone he loves?

So why isn't he going to save her.

"You won't be able to come back. We'll hunt you until you're dead. I'll do it," she promises voice angry.

He leans up on his elbows, lips pressing into hers.

"I'll be waiting," he sighs.

He will be.

And she'll be the one to kill him.
