A/N

Hello! Thanks so much for all the reviews and follows, they mean so much, seriously. Today, I genuinely actually found a caterpillar in my apple :( I was trying to be healthy as well.

I don't own Harry Potter or anything like that, I just ship dramione is all.

Snape's POV

We apparted from the lake and arrived in the hospital wing. Dumbledore had lead the apparition so everyone let go of him as I looked down at the injured girl in my arms.

I held her for a while as the other teachers made up a bed, my arms covered in water and blood. I peered down at her anxiously, her soft curls tickling my fingers. Her eyebrows were slightly raised, as if she was surprised and the sun shone on her face, highlighting her beautifully defined cheek bones and small freckly nose.

I snapped out my daze as Albus called my name, realising how completely wrong it was for me to find her attractive. I carefully laid her down on a freshly made bad as Albus said,

"You should probably get on brewing that potion now Severus,"

I nodded soberly, striding out the hospital wing, trying to ignore the blood on my hands. Images flashed through my head as I walked down the corridors; Hermione smiling warmly when I actually gave her the grade she deserved, Lily smiling warmly when I made a joke about her fat sister. Hermione frowning when I called her insufferable, Lily frowning when I called her filthy. Lily, dead in my arms. Lost in thought, I nearly walk past my office, but a painting directs me into the right room, reminding me of the task at hand.

Harry's POV

I watched silently as students strolled into the great hall, talking about normal, happy things. My life was nothing but normal and happy. My scare was killing and one of my best friends was nearly dead. Yay.

I heard Luna laughing t yet another of Ron's jokes and cheered up a bit; Luna and Ron had become incredibly close in the last month, really connecting with each other. However much Ron called Luna, looney, I knew she meant a lot to him, and this made me feel better, knowing that life around me was still going on as normal, despite the dreams. I picked at my dinner as a soft Scottish accent asked,

"You alright Harry?"

My stomach flipped when I noticed it was Cho. Determined not to make a fool of myself, I promptly swallowed my pumpkin juice and replied,

"I is good."

Cho frowned and I blushed; what did I just say?!

"Cool. Is it alright if I sit here?" she asked, pointing at the empty seat next to me,

I nodded, scared that if I opened my mouth I would blurt out something idiotic like,

"I polished the wood just for you,"

Ron stared at me questioningly. The blood rushes to my head when I realise that I said it out loud. Luckily, Cho giggled.

"That's so nice of you Harry," she said, smiling warmly and taking a seat next to me. I smiled insanely back at her, starting a conversation about how much I'm missing quidditch this year and how it's a shame that we can't still train for it, she then started talking about her favourite team and Ron joined in.

"It's so nice to be able to talk to a girl about quidditch, all Hermione ever talks about is books," I sighed.

Cho stopped smiling, "Oh, Ced told me about Hermione, is she alright?"

I looked down, "Don't know really, I found all the treasures first but I didn't want to leave any down there so I waited for people to come collect them. Fleur took her sister first, and then Cedric took you. I was about to take Hermione with me, but Krum came flying in and just took Hermione in his jaw. He swam forwards instead of upwards and I was gonna follow him but my gillyweed was wearing off. I was nearly at the surface but then a ton of grindyllow pulled me down so I had to use my wand. I wanted to go find Hermione but Mad-Eye wouldn't let me. Finally, Krum appeared and he had pretty much chewed Hermione to pieces. Mad-Eye wouldn't let me and Ron help, we had to leave with everyone else."

Throughout my story, Cho never stopped looking at me and when I eventually finished she smiled,

"You're so brave Harry. Ced left straight away. He's never been as thoughtful as you…"

I tried so hard not to blush when she said this, and to ease to silence, I suggested we go see Hermione,

"Sure, the hall's super busy, be nice to get out. Actually, me and Ced were… never mind, let's go."

Smiling, I stood up, as did Cho and to my surprise, we linked her arm through mine. I expected the touch to feel awkward but it didn't, it felt nice.

Diggory stopped laughing as we walked past his table but Cho strode right past, tightening her grip slightly as he called her name.

We walked in silence to the hospital wing, her attitude towards Diggory on my mind.

The doors of the hospital wing where closed and as I was opening them, Malfoy slipped out, paler than usual. I figured he want feeling well and walked straight in.

My arm fell out of Cho's when I saw Hermione, lying on a bed, Snape pouring a crimson potion into her mouth. Her sheets were soaked with blood, and Snape's arms were shaking. Snape stood up, the potion all gone. Looking at Pomphrey, he stammered,

"Will Hermione be okay?"

It shocked me to hear him call her Hermione, but I ignored it as Snape strode out the room, attempting to conceal his shaking limps.

"How is she?" I asked. Pomphrey frowned.

"She was moments from death, Mr Malfoy may have pretty much saved her life."
