Saving Me

Chapter Twenty- Five


Prison gates won't open up for me
On these hands and knees I'm crawlin'
Oh, I reach for you

Well I'm terrified of these four walls
These iron bars can't hold my soul in
All I need is you

Come please I'm callin'
And oh I scream for you
Hurry I'm fallin', I'm fallin'

Show me what it's like
To be the last one standing
And teach me wrong from right
And I'll show you what I can be

And say it for me, say it to me
And I'll leave this life behind me
Say it if it's worth saving me

Heaven's gates won't open up for me
With these broken wings I'm fallin'
And all I see is you

These city walls ain't got no love for me
I'm on the ledge of the eighteenth story
And oh I scream for you

Come please I'm callin'
And all I need from you
Hurry I'm fallin', I'm fallin'

Show me what it's like
To be the last one standing
And teach me wrong from right
And I'll show you what I can be

And say it for me, say it to me
And I'll leave this life behind me
Say it if it's worth saving me
Hurry I'm fallin'

And all I need is you
Come please I'm callin'
And oh I scream for you
Hurry I'm fallin', I'm fallin'

Show me what it's like
To be the last one standing
And teach me wrong from right
And I'll show you what I can be

And say it for me, say it to me
And I'll leave this life behind me
Say it if it's worth saving me
Hurry I'm fallin'

And say it for me, say it to me
And I'll leave this life behind me
Say it if it's worth saving me

Savin' Me- Nickelback


Oh my goodness. So many reviews in so little time. Thanks you guys! That means a lot to me. I think you guys will like this chapter. Some of you were looking forward to it. I also took a scene at the end from Bruce Almighty. I love that movie, and I thought it would fit. Three or four more chapters left. I don't know if I will update again before Christmas or not. So, if not, MERRY CHRISTMAS!


The moment Narcissa, Snape, and Blaise Apparated in; the healers took Draco's body immediately. The one healer showed them to a waiting room, where she explained that if anything were to happened, the three of them would be the first to know. Blaise took the chair furthest in the corner. He placed his head in his hands and rested his elbows on his knees. Narcissa and Snape sat two seats down. That was when she began to breakdown again.

"Cissy, you need to breath," Snape said. "Calm down."

"So much blood," she sobbed. "He is going to die, Severus."

"You don't know that," he replied. "These are the best healers in the world. They should be able to fix this."

Snape didn't say anything after that because he knew that he made a tint white lie. Sure the healers in the building may have been the best, but Draco had been bleeding for a very long time before they could get to him. He just hoped with all of his being that they were not too late.

They continued to wait in the room for what seemed like hours. No one dared to say anything for there was nothing to say. Narcissa's cries quieted down and Blaise stared at the bare, white wall. Snape began pacing in front of them going back and forth and back and forth. What was taking so long?

"Excuse me," A deep male voice coughed getting their attention. "I take it that you are here for Draco Malfoy."

"Yes," Narcissa jumped to her feet and rushed to the healer. "Is he OK? Is he going to make it?"

"Follow me please," he did not answer her question. He just led them down the vacant hallway. They came to the last door on the left. "We've healed the wounds shut and fixed his internal organs that were punctured."

"So is he going to be OK?" Blaise asked again.

"I'm afraid not," he explained. "He lost too much blood. I was amazed to see that he was still alive when you brought him here, but we gave him a potion that could give him some time. He wanted to have a few words with you before he was gone."

Pushing the doors open, Narcissa went to the hospital bed. Blaise and Snape followed suit. The men stood at the end of the bed while Narcissa pulled up a chair and sat by her son's side. She took his hand in hers. It was cold from the lack of blood in his system. Not as cold as it was back at the manor, but colder than it should be.

"I'm not dead yet you know," Her heart leaped at the voice. "What's going on, what's with all the long faces?"

"Good to see he still has his sense of humor," Blasie said. "Do you remember anything, mate?"

"Sadly," Draco nodded. "How long was I out?"

"Not that long, but if seemed like days for me." Narcissa said with a teary smile.

"Oh mum, don't cry," he gave her hand a tight squeeze. "I'll be fine. I don't want you to be sad when I'm gone. I want you to be happy. Voldemort's dead and Lucius is in Azkaban. He is in Azkaban right?"

"Yes," Snape answered. "Aurors took him along to Azkaban with almost all of the other Death Eaters."

"Almost?" Draco asked.

"Some got away," he replied. "But it's nothing to worry about. They weren't that much of Death Eater's to begin with anyway."

"That's not good. That means that-"Draco held his head as his vision began to get cloudy. "Shit!"

"What's wrong?" Narcissa asked.

"The potion's wearing off," he said. "That means I only have about five minutes left. OK, I have some things to tell you all, so hear me out. Mum, I want you to get over my death. You got through this war. Lucius isn't here to ruin your life anymore. Live it. Snape, I want you to look out for her. Just in case something happens since I won't be around anymore, and Blaise," he paused as his vision continued to blur. "I need you to do me a favor."

"What's that?" Blasie asked.

"I want you to tell the guys. Tell them that they are the best friends that I've ever had. I want you to spit all of my stuff with them. I know that Levi always wanted my 360. So he can have it. And then," Draco closed his eyes.

"Draco, what? Come on man, don't leave us yet." Blasie said a bit too loud.

"I …want you to…tell…Haylee that I love her. I love her so…much. And then I want…you to tell…..Harry…Ron and Hermione that….I'm sorry. For everything. Can you…..do that for me?"

"Of course I can," Blasie sniffed tears away. "You- Draco!"

"You guys are the best." Draco Malfoy spoke for the last time. (AN: A lot of you hate me know don't you?)

"Draco." Narcissa brushed his hair back form his eyes running along the scar that her damned husband gave him when he was very young. The eyes that she would never see again.

The door opened from behind them, and the healer that showed them in looked at their saddened expressions.

"I'm sorry for your loss, but I need to have a word with you about what you want to do with the body." He said.

"I have to go," Blasie said. "I have some errands to run."

"Be careful, Blaise." Narcissa said.

"I will."


The light was bright, but not as bright as people may think. There was no pain where he was. Wherever he was. All he could see was white. White walls. White ceiling. White floor. White light.

"About time you woke up, son," A voice said from behind him. "We were getting worried."

"We?" He asked.

"We've been watching you Draco Malfoy," The man before him said. "And I have to say it was a fun ride."

"I would have to agree wouldn't you say, James?" That was a new voice, one that Draco did not hear before.

"I would have to agree, Lily." That one was too.

"What going on?" Draco asked.

"You are in Heaven, Draco Malfoy." The woman, Lilly told him.

"Yeah, I kind of got that much," he ran a hand through his hair. "So I really am dead?"

"No one can live through being stabbed by a sword and lying in the grass bleeding to death. Not even wizards I'm afraid," the first man said. "Yes, you are dead."

"Great." Draco mumbled.

"Is he here yet? Is he here yet?" Another excited voice shouted running towards them appearing from the white clouds around them. "Drake, you got so big!"

Draco's head turned in surprise. That voice he knew. He knew it very well, but it had been such a long time since he heard it. "Adian." He gasped. (AN: Had to bring him back too at some point.)

There right before him was his four year old brother. The same blonde hair and grey, blue eyes shining up at him. A large smile was on the little boys face. He had been waiting for this day for a long time. Draco was at a lose of words. He lost his brother twelve years ago on this very day. Never in his wildest dreams would he believe that he would be seeing his brother again.

"Are you going to hug me or what?" Adian asked placing his hands on his hips.

"Come here, Short Stuff." Draco laughed kneeling down as Adian ran into his arms.

"I hate that name." Adian said as a matter of factly.

"I know," Draco said. "I can't believe this. I never thought that I would see you again."

"I never thought I would either, but then God came up to me when I was playing in the sand box with some of my friends that you were coming, I got excited." Adian smiled hugging him even tighter.

"I can see that," Draco said. "Wait a minute. You're really him?"

"The One." God nodded before him.

"Wow," he said. "Wait then you two. Lily and James. As in Lily and James Potter?"

"Sharp as a marble this one," James chuckled. "Yes, we are."

"We've been watching you," Lily said. "And what can I say? What a great catch my daughter had made."

"Wait, you have a girlfriend?" Adian asked.

"Had, Adian," Draco told him. "I had a girlfriend."

"My goodness you four, we are in Heaven we are supposed to be happy," God said. "Now, we were going to go on a little field trip. Would you like to come, Draco? Adian?"

"Where to?" Adian asked. "I like field trips."

"To Hogwarts of course," James spoke. "Want to see what is going on now that the Wizarding World is now at peace again."

"I want to go," Adian announced. "I've never been to Hogwarts before."

"Shall we then?" God asked. "All right."

Adian held onto his brother's hand tightly as the scene around them swirled into a picture of color. They were at Hogwarts.

"That was fast." Draco said.

"Come, we have a lot to see." The adults headed to the Great Hall.

"This is going to be good." Adian giggled from Draco's side.

Inside the Great Hall were hundreds of people. Draco didn't know that the Great Hall could fit that many people, but it did. All of which we laughing, dancing, and having a good time celebrating. That was when Draco spotted the four sullen Gryffindors at the far end of the hall. They were taking about something, or someone.

"Who are they?" Adian asked.

"You can go have a look around, just make sure you are back here soon, or we'll head back without you." God said to them.

Agreeing, Draco and Adian walked over to them.

"She's been up there the entire day. This is insane!" Harry said.

"Harry, let her go, she's having a rough time." Ginny put her hand on his.

"Guys look, it's Zabini," Ron pointed. "He was with Malfoy wasn't he?"

"Yeah, maybe he came back with some good news." Harry replied.

"Not likely." Hermione and Ginny whispered.

"Hey guys, can I talk to you for a minute?" He asked.

"Sure man, have a seat." Ron answered.

"Thanks," Blaise took the only empty seat left. "This isn't easy for me to say, but Draco's dead."

"What?" Harry and Ron asked.

"Yeah, I know," he went on. "But before he passed on he told me that he wanted me to tell you guys something. For him you know."

"OK."

"He wanted to let you know that he was sorry. For everything that has happened." Blaise finished.

"He wanted you to tell us that?" Harry asked.

"Yeah."

"Woah."

"Hey, that's Blasie. He got tall too." Adian said.

"We all did, Adian," Draco replied. "Come on, there's one more place that I want to go."

"OK." Adian grasped Draco's hand again before heading up to the Gryffindor Common Room.

"Where are we going now?" Adian asked.

"I just need to see someone." Draco answered.

"Oh, is it your girlfriend?"

Draco stopped before the Fat Lady and looked down at him. The same smirk that he had was plastered on this small face.

"Yes."

"You know we can walk through that right?" Adian asked.

"We can?"

"Yeah, follow me." Adain went through first.

"This is so weird." Draco muttered waling through the wall.

"About time," Adian said when Draco came through to the other side. "You take forever."

"Sorry, Short Stuff."

"Hey!"

"Come on, we don't have a lot of time left." Draco picked his brother up and went up the stairs to the girls dorms.

The only dorm where Haylee could be that made any sense was the seventh year one. So when they came to the door. Instead of walking through it, Adian pushed open the door.

"What happened to walking through things?" Draco asked.

"This is more fun. She'll know that something is in the room with her this way," Adian explained. "Duh."

Draco chuckled and followed Adian into the room. He was never in the Gryffindor Common Room before let alone a dorm room. This was nothing like the Slytherin ones that's for sure. The Slytherin dorms were plane and boring. Just colors of silver, black, and green. The Gryffindor dorms were not. They were so warming. Gold and red everywhere.

The seventh year dorm was empty. The beds were all made. Trunks were all packed on the beds. There was no sign of anyone in there. Not that Draco could see anyway. He was about to give up, until Adian got his attention.

"There's someone over there on the window sill. She's crying. Can I go give her a hug?" He asked.

Draco's heart dropped. She was here! He would have realized that on his own if he just walked two feet and looked at the wall. Boy was he stupid.

"Why's she so sad?" Adian asked. "Oh, she's your girlfriend. She's very pretty."

"I know," Draco smiled. "One of the many great things that I love about her."

"You love her?" Adian asked.

"With my entire being," He answered. "Shh, listen."

"Why did you have to go, Draco?" Haylee cried looking out at the sky. "It wasn't supposed to be like this."

"I'd change it if I could." He walked towards her.

"What are you doing?" Adian asked.

"Shh."

"Oh God, why did he have to die?" She asked. "I love him so much. I want him to come back, but I know that's impossible. Not even wizards can make people come back from the dead."

"I want to come back to, Baby," Draco sat on the other side of her. "You have no idea."

"Why did Voldemort have to kill him?"

"He was going to do it anyway. It was only a matter of time."

"I would have said yes," she said. "We would have gotten married. Had a family and be happy. But that can't happen anymore."

"Would have said yes to what?" Adian asked.

"Adian I-"

"There's nothing left for me anymore." She said tears falling down her face.

"Yes there is," Draco placed is hand on her cheek. Haylee jumped with a start. "You have your brother, your friends."

Haylee looked at the empty spot beside her. It was in fact empty, but why did she have that feeling of someone watching her? Her cheek was cold. It felt like someone or something touched her. She put her hand on top of her cheek and cried some more. Draco's hand warmed from under her touch. If only she could know that he was there.

"Draco." Haylee whispered aloud.

"Drake we have to go." Adian pulled on his arm.

"OK," He stood kissing Haylee's temple. "I love you."

Haylee looked over at the empty seat and continued to cry.

"I was wondering when you two were going to get back," God smiled. "We were almost going to leave without you. Ready to head back?"

"No, but I guess we have to," Adian frowned. "I was liking this field trip."

"I'm sorry, Adian," God said. "Maybe you'll be able to come back some other time."

"OK!" The little boy smiled.

"Let's go." The world faded around the five of them again, and before they knew it, they were all back in Heaven.

"Now there is only one order of business to take care of." God said facing Draco.

"What's that?" He asked.

"Haylee,"God said. The way he said it made Draco want to fall to the floor and cry for hours. "Do you want her back?"

Draco looked into his eyes. Did he? Absolutely, but was it the right thing to do? He saw Lily and James smiling at them. James holding Lily in his arms. He imagined that they would want him to go back to her. They would want their daughter to be happy.

"No," he thought it through carefully. Causing James and Lily to do a double take. God stared. "I want her to be happy. No matter what that means. I want her to find someone who will treat her with all the love that I tried to give her. I want her to meet someone who will see her always the way I do." I tear fell over his scar less face. Lily was crying as well.

"I'm gonna get right on that," God smiled. "Adian is there anything you want to say to your brother?"

"Drake, I want you to know that I love you. You're the best big brother in the world." He said.

"I love you too, Adian." Draco hugged his brother tight lifting him off the ground.

"I want you to know that I'll always be with you," he looked into Draco's eyes. "Right here." Adian put his hand on Draco's heart. It started to glow.

"Take care of my baby, Draco." Lily smiled.

"I plan to." Draco grinned.

"I'll be watching you boy." James said.

"I believe that," He looked back at God. "Thank You."

"Don't thank me," he said. "Thank them."

"Who?" Draco asked.

"Domi vivere." God said before Draco fell to the ground unconscious. (AN: Latin for back home alive.)


taokiomi93- Thank you so much! I never thought I would be able to get that reaction from people. Guess that means my writing is getting better doesn't it? Let me know if you cry in this one? I know I did.

Magimagus- It was a bit short, it was a filler mainly. This one has more substance in it. I never thought of the black and white thing, but yeah that makes sense. You're a sharp one you are. When I do the next one I'll be sure to ask you for your help. I'm beginning to write the sequel, and I'm stuck. You wouldn't happen to be good at writing those kinds of scenes would you? Just wondering? If not that's cool.
