Liz, thanks, I'm glad you like it!

Ember Riddle, lol yeah that's what I was going for, trust me it's even sadder when you listen to the song that the chapter is inspired by (Tonight and the rest of my life by nina gordon), I did that as I reread the previous chapter and it made me kinda cry (I think it was because of the song though)

My-Lover-Gren-Gren, yeah I know it was Sev and Dumbledore but Karina will only find out about it being sev not dumbledore. yes Draco is awesome (he's my fave character in the HP series).

Chapter 21: When You're Gone

Chapter inspired by When You're Gone by Avril Lavinge

I always needed time on my own
I never thought I'd need you there when I cry
And the days feel like years when I'm alone
And the bed where you lie
Is made up on your side

When you walk away
I count the steps that you take
Do you see how much I need you right now?

When you're gone
The pieces of my heart are missing you
When you're gone
The face I came to know is missing too
When you're gone
The words I need to hear to always get me through the day
And make it OK
I miss you

I never felt this way before
Everything that I do
Reminds me of you
And the clothes you left
They lie on the floor
And they smell just like you
I love the things that you do

We were made for each other
Out here forever
I know we were
Yeah Yeah

All I ever wanted was for you to know
Everything I do I give my heart and soul
I can hardly breathe I need to feel you here with me
Yeah

When you're gone
The pieces of my heart are missing you
When you're gone
The face I came to know is missing too
And When you're gone
The words I need to hear will always get me through the day
And make it OK
I miss you
mMm

Karina watched him walk out the door. She sat there for a few minutes and then just fell on the bed, crying hysterically. She buried her face in the pillow. It smelled like him, which made her cry even more. Karina had tried to hold herself together in front of him, tried not to break down in front of him. It would've been pointless to beg him not to go, not to leave me She thought.

Her head was pounding from how much she had been crying. It broke her heart to see him walk out the door. After what seemed like years, she got up from the bed and put her clothes back on. She walked over to his dresser and opened one of the drawers. Karina pulled out a black sweater and put it on. It smelled like him. She looked at his dresser and saw an empty picture frame. There used to be a photo of Draco and her in the picture frame. He took the picture with him She thought.

Tears started falling again. She leaned againest the dresser and slid down to the floor, crying. She curled up, like a child, againest the dresser and was bawling. Karina could hardly breath and thought she might choke on her own tears.

She picked herself up and walked slowly to the door. She put her hand on the door-knob and took one final look at the room, and walked out.

Karina had woken up to screams. She quickly put on jeans and a sweater, Draco's sweater. She ran down to the great hall and saw people were outside crowding around something. Oh god please don't let it be Draco She thought as she frantically pushed through the crowd. She finally saw what everyone was looking at, Dumbledore, dead. "Oh, my god" She whispered, gasping. She saw Seamus and Dean standing there, sad. "Dean, where are Hermione and Ginny?" She asked nervously.

"I saw them go to the hospital wing" Seamus said. Karina run up to the Hospital Wing. She saw Harry, Ron, Hermione, Ginny, The Twins, Fleur and several of the teachers including their former Defense againest the dark arts teacher, Professor Lupin.

"What happend?" She said running towards them. The next thing she knew she was pinned againest a wall and had a wand pointed in her face. "Ron! Let her go" Hermione yelled.

"Where did he go?" Ron asked ignoring Hermione. Everyone was staring at them, waiting for Karina's answer. "Who?Where did who go?" Karina asked confused.

"You know who, that blasted bastard fiance of your's" Ron said angrily. "I don't know where he went, I swear" She said bearly getting the words out as Ron pressured his grip on her neck.

Lupin pulled Ron off of her. "That's enough" Lupin said quietly. Karina gripped her neck, leaning againest the wall, breathless.

"Did he do this?Did Draco do this?" She asked as she looked over at Bill who was bloodied-up. "No, that was done by Fenrir Greyback. Draco let the death eaters in" Lupin said.

Karina stood there, shocked. "...And Dumbledore?" She asked quietly. "That's was Snape's doing" Hermione said.

"The death eaters got in, thanks to your loving fiance, and they got into a fight with some of us, Malfoy cornered Dumbledore but didn't attack him, just disarmed him, but then Snape came and...killed dumbledore, then he and Malfoy ran for it" Ginny said.

"You knew he was a death eater?" Harry asked quietly. Karina nodded. "yeah, he got the dark mark on his arm over the summer and showed it to me a couple of times, he said he had to do it, that if he didn't do it then everyone he cared about would be killed" Karina said remembering the first time she saw the dark mark on his arm.

"Don't try and justify what he did!" Ron said fiercly.

"I'm not trying to justify anything, i'm just telling you what i know" Karina said angrily.

"And let me guess, you're still standing by him" Ron asked standing up from his seat.

"Yes I am" She said definately.

"I knew it!That's why you're wearing his sweater" Ron said pointing at the sweater.

"How'd you know it was his?" Karina asked confused.

"I can smell his bloody cologne from here" Ron said.

"Sorry about that" Karina muttered.

"Yeah well, you know what, I don't think anybody wants the girlfriend of a death-eater around, so just leave Karina" Ron said.

"Fine" She said as she turned and walked away. She stopped as she got to the door and looked at them over her shoulder.

"He's not all bad, you know, he does have a good side" Karina said and she walked out the door.

So she's sticking by her man, yay!!! ...but when will she see him again?I'm going to post the next chapter maybe by thrusday since I need to start getting some stuff for school, so please be patient!
