Here's the update you've all been waiting for!
The Last Thing That Meant Anything – Mayday Parade

. . .

Well I thought that we could sit around and, talk for hours
About things I couldn't say to you
And things that we could never do and,
This conversation has had no face
When the words take days you can re-write and erase anything
You know my heart (so tell me all that's needed, cause I don't really want this)
Knows all this

Draco was sitting in the Slytherin common room when an owl flew in with a letter from his father.

He quickly opened it.

Draco-

I've heard that you got yourself a little girlfriend.

I'm coming to visit soon along with your mother.

She would like to meet your new Slytherin girl.

We shall come visit in the next few days, or possibly

Weeks, because the Dark Lord has sent me on a mission

And I have no idea how long this will take. But we will

Come sooner or later.

-Your Father

Draco panicked.

He couldn't have his father meet Hermione. He was expecting some Slytherin girl and Hermione was definitely not a Slytherin girl.

Draco was thinking up ways to keep Hermione from his father's knowledge.

Days turned to weeks and weeks turned to months and Hermione and Draco were still together, waiting for Lucius. He didn't tell Hermione about the visit from his father because he didn't want Hermione to freak out.

They were still madly in love, but Draco knew that because of Ron, they would be caught eventually. He couldn't let that happen because he knew that word would get to his father and his father would hurt Hermione when he came to visit. And he just couldn't let this happen to her.

He loved Hermione more than everything else in the world and he would do anything to keep her safe.

Even if it meant that they couldn't be together.

Draco sat in the astronomy tower with Blaise, talking about how he was going to go through with this.

"I love her, Blaise." Draco said.

"Of course you do, man." Blaise said.

"I…I've never felt this way about a girl before." Draco said. "I…I really do love her. I want her. I need her. What am I going to do without her?"

"Well, you don't have to break up with her." Blaise said.

"Yes, I do!" Draco said. "You don't understand! If my father finds out…if he finds out she'll get hurt and it will be all my fault because I didn't do anything to stop it. I can't let this happen to her."

"Why don't you just tell her about your father coming to visit?" Blaise asked.

"Because my father would be able to see the way we look at each other." Draco said, knowing his father always caught the looks Draco threw at other girls. "I can't put her in danger like that."

"So what are you going to do?" Blaise asked.

"I need to make her hate me." Draco said.

"But, why?" Blaise asked.

"So that my father won't get suspicious and hurt her. I can't let him hurt her." Draco said.

"Do you need to?" Blaise asked.

"Yes. I can't be with her anymore, Blaise. If I am, I'll be putting her in more danger. And I can't do that to her, because I love her." Draco said.

They heard footsteps coming up the stairs to the top of the astronomy tower and Blaise quickly disappeared.

And I'll borrow words from all my favourite paragraphs
To write a ballad while we say the things
We hope would mean the most to me
And each line is sent
I have found a new pages of hope for the days
when I felt like I've lost everything

And Draco's heart sank as he knew that he was about to lose everything he ever loved.

"Draco?" Hermione's sweet voice called out.

"Here, love." Draco said.

Hermione smiled and she rushed over to him and engulfed him in a hug.

"I missed you." Hermione said.

"I missed you too." Draco said.

"What did you want to talk about?" Hermione asked.

You know my heart (so tell me all that's needed, cause I don't really want this)
Knows all these lines (cause my jealous heart really can't take that)
So I'll sing this song for everyone that's come out lost
But, I'll be OK (Is that what you want me to say)
It's called breakup
Cause it's broken
But I'll be OK (is that what you want me to say)
It's called breakup
Cause it's broken

"I…Hermione I think we should…break up." Draco blurted out.

"What? Why?" Hermione asked, tears quickly coming to her eyes.

"We can't keep doing this Hermione. I can't…what if we get caught? I can't get caught with…with a mudblood like you." Draco said coldly, his heart hurting when he said those words to her.

Hermione's tears spilled over her pink-tinted cheeks.

"But…But I love you!" Hermione cried.

"Just face it, Herm- mudblood. We were never meant to be." Draco said, looking away from her face and trying to disguise the look of pain in his eyes.

"But I need you!" She cried.

"I…I need to go." Draco said, getting up and walking away from her. He went down the stairs and stood outside the door in the shadows.

He had to make sure that she got out and went back to Pothead and the Weasel.

I'll be OK, is that what you want me to say
Cause it's broken
And well, try so bad to tell me that you
Make it that you're sorry and the
Lines we said
Never meant the words we meant
Cause it's broken
Every kiss that you could ever mean
The everything that takes you back
The chocolate, rose, the kisses
That like chasing through your misses

After almost an hour of sobbing, Hermione wiped the tears off her face, knowing that Draco was too good to be true. She just sat there for another fifteen minutes and thought.

She looked up to the sky and saw how late it was.

Ginny would be worrying about her and she decided that she needed to go back.

She started to walk down the stairs and pushed the door to the tower open.

She walked towards Gryffindor tower with an emotionless face. Inside, her heart was breaking.

But she didn't know that Draco was feeling the same way as he watched her walk away from him.

She walked into the common room to see Ginny, ready to pounce on her.

"Where have you been? Do you know how late it is?" Ginny asked.

"Sorry, I just…" Hermione didn't finish her sentence, because she started to drift off in her thoughts again.

"Hermione!" Ginny shouted, waving her hand in front of her face.

"Huh?" Hermione asked.

"I said what happened? You usually come back all happy." Ginny said.

"I…Dra-Malfoy broke up with me." Hermione admitted.

"Oh no." Ginny said. "Why?"

"He said…he said he couldn't be caught with a mudblood like me." Hermione said, her face still hidden behind her emotionless mask.

"Are you okay, 'Mione?" Ginny asked.

"Yes, I'm fine." Hermione answered. "Can you just…leave me alone for a bit?"

"Are you sure?" Ginny asked.

"Yeah." Hermione answered.

Ginny walked away from her and into the girls' dormitory, worrying about Hermione.

Hermione thought about Malfoy.

The way that they could sit around and talk for hours about nothing. The way that he would smile at her. The way that he would tell her he loved her.

She shook her head at the thoughts.

He wasn't hers anymore.

She didn't need him.

But she still wanted him.

I'll be OK
Is that what you want me to say
It's called Breakup
Cause it's broken
Well I thought that we could sit around and, talk for hours
About things I couldn't say to you
And things that we could never do

. . .

What did you guys think?
Lucius will probably meet Draco in the
next up coming chapter.
