Hermione tossed and turned. She was afraid to sleep. She didn't want to relive the attack over and over again. She sighed slightly and peeled the covers off her form and tip-toed through the hospital wing and crossed to one of the big windows.
She brought a chair by the window and curled up in it. She could see the stars from where she was and that brought a strange peace to her. Before she knew it she was asleep.
"Hello, Mudblood," Hermione looked at the cloaked figure and tried not to show how scared she was.
"I said Hello," He said pointing his wand at her. "You say?" Hermione looked at him with anger in her eyes.
"Hello scum," she said malice dripping from every syllable. The figure chuckled and muttered something.
Hermione felt an indescribable pain take over her body. She wanted to scream and cry but she couldn't let him see how much it hurt her. Her body collapsed on the floor and the pain was getting worse by the second. She knew that if it didn't stop soon she would pass out and perhaps die.
"Oh not so tough now are you Mudblood," Hermione didn't reply. "Now how bout a proper greeting," Fear over took Hermione she knew she was in deep and no matter what she said she was going to die.
"When you give me one I'll give you one back but until then you can forget it," The blinding pain surged through her once more.
"You are a brave little mudblood aren't you?" Hermione felt a tear slip down her cheek. No matter how much she tried to hold them back they came out one by one.
"Piss off," Was the only words she could muster. He took the spell off her and kneeled down close to her.
"Your ruining my plans, Stay away from Draco or else you'll be sorry," He hissed at her limp figure.
"I love him and he loves me. You can do whatever you want to me but you won't stop me," she could barely speak barely breathe.
"Oh such a said little mudblood," his voice was cold as stone. "Now I'll give you one more chance, Stay away from Draco Malfoy," He said his voice firm and threatening.
"Never," She spat with venom in her voice. "Go to hell Voldemort-"
"Hermione," She opened her eyes groggily. "Hermione you were yelling in your sleep, is everything alright?" She looked at the person and nodded.
"Look Hermione who attacked you?" Hermione shook her head.
"Draco just leave it be," Hermione said quietly.
"Leave what be?" Hermione could feel the tears well up in her eyes.
"Leave me be, Leave everything that happened in the past and never speak to me again," Draco couldn't believe what she was saying.
"I could never do that Hermione," He shook his head. "I love you, don't you understand that?" Tears were falling from her eyes now.
"ITS FOR YOUR OWN DAMN GOOD!" She yelled. "DON'T YOU GET IT!" the tears fell more rapidly as she hugged her knees to her chest. She wished she had died. She wished she didn't have to do this to herself…to her love.
"How could you say that Hermione," He said trying not to let the tears escape his eyes. "Without you I'm nothing…Without you Hermione Granger there is no Draco Malfoy," Hermione shook her head.
"No," Hermione replied simply. "Without me Draco Malfoy will live," Hermione tried to stop the steady flowing tears. "Without me…Without me," A sob escaped her lips as he held her close.
"GET AWAY FROM ME!" Hermione shouted again. "GET AWAY FROM ME, I WON'T BE THE REASON YOU DIE!" She pushed him off her and ran from the hospital wing. She needed to get away. She didn't care where she went she just had to get far, far away from Draco Malfoy…For his own safety.
Draco was stunned. He didn't understand. Why would he die because of her? Then it hit him like a ton of bricks.
The attack. Whoever attacked her must have threatened to kill him if she didn't stay away from him. He needed to find her. He needed to tell her that life wasn't worth living without her.
He ran from the hospital wing and went to find her. He came to the lake and saw a figure dressed in all white lying on the ground. He could see her body shaking. He knew it was Hermione right away. He bolted across the grass to her figure. He kneeled beside her and spotted her arm.
Deep cuts flawed her tan skin. He grabbed her arm and took off his shirt. He held her shaking body close to his. He wrapped the shirt around the wounds and held her tight.
"Please Hermione," He sighed. "Don't do this to me…Don't do this to yourself," He said sadly. "I need you in my life," a tear slipped down his pale cheek and feel lightly on her hair. "It won't matter if I die If I don't have you…My life doesn't mean anything without you Hermione," Hermione looked up at his face.
"I can't…" she sighed. "Please understand Draco," she looked back down. "Please just understand,"
"HOW CAN I UNDERSTAND?" He yelled. "YOUR BRAKING MY HEART ALL OVER AGAIN HERMIONE GRANGER!" the anger boiled inside of him. "HOW CAN YOU BE SO HEARTLESS?"
"Heartless?" Hermione shook her head. "I'M DOING THIS FOR YOU! NOT FOR ME FOR YOU!" she wiped the tears from her cheeks. "Do you honestly think I want this? Do you think I want to let you go?" she paused. "If you do your wrong Draco Malfoy, very wrong," She shook her head. She looked up at him once more.
"Then don't do it Hermione," she let out a frustrated growl.
"Just face it Draco, Its over between us. Just let it go!" With that she stormed away.
