Chapter twenty
I will always love you
Ginny was crying. She didn't want to leave, but she knew she had to.
If I should stay I would only be in your way
She bit her lip and shoved a few more shirts in the already stuffed bag.
She couldn't bear it. But she had to leave him. He had to be safe. Just because it was the right thing, didn't make it hurt any less.
So I'll go, but I know I'll think of you every step of the way
"Ginny!"
She cringed as Draco, Ron, Harry and Hermione burst into the room. Draco hesitated at her tears then came over and took her. "Ginny, love, what is it?"
And I will always love you
The love in his voice almost undid her. She cried a bit more.
I,will always love you
Draco held her tenderly.
You, my darling you, you
She pushed him away. "No!"
Bitter sweet memories
He stared at her with pain. "Ginny, what is it?"
That is all I'm taking with me
"I can't!" She cried. "Please, I can't stay!"
"Why not?"
So goodbye, please don't cry
We both know I'm not what you need
She shook her head, scattering more tears.
And I will always love you
I,will always love you
You, my darling you, you
"No, I can't!" She sobbed.
I hope life treats you kind
"You have to!" He insisted, shaking her slightly. She cried all the harder.
And I hope you have all you dreamed off
"Please, please don't make me!" She begged.
And I wish to you joy and happiness
But above all this I wish to you love
"I have to know." He whispered to her.
And I will always love you
I,will always love you
You, my darling you, you
Ginny looked up and met his eyes. "If I stay, you'll die. Don't you see? I have to leave you. I can't let you die."
(A/N: Ahhhhh! I cried when I wrote this chapter.
