Story Summary: Hermione Granger swore she would never love again, she swore she would never make the same mistake twice. She did, and it cost her everything. Even the man she swore she'd never love.



Hermione turned a corner and ran all the way down the hall and up the stairs to the tower. Her tower, the tower where she sat from midnight to sunrise with HIM. At one time believing he loved her, that he cared that he would never leaver her. Once again she was wrong, she was wrong about Nick, she was wrong about Jason… and she was wrong about Draco.

" Why doesn't anyone love me for me?" Hermione asked herself staring off into space. Suddenly she stood up straight.

' Stop pitting yourself Hermione, you're a strong girl. You'll never have to see Draco Malfoy after Sunday, why brood on it. Harry loves you…' Hermione lectured herself in her head. It was time to get over Draco, get over him even if it killed her. Sighing she traced the engravings on the windowsill.

Here we stand hand in hand,

The world thought we couldn't make it, we'll prove them wrong,

On our own we stand proud together we stand strong

Amor Omnia Vicit

D+H 4ever

A single tear fell on to the engravings.

" I guess we were wrong Draco, love doesn't conquer all. Hate conquers all. And we didn't stand strong, if we had you would still be with me. The world was right, we'll never make it…" Hermione murmured softly tears hitting the stone. Turning she fled down the steps and to the Main hall.

Wiping her tears she joined her friends at the table as Dumbledor stood to set up the podium where they would official graduate this evening. Then tomorrow, they were on their own. They would return to the real world as men and women. Some would thrive in the magical world, some would return to the muggle world. They would go their own separate ways, maybe never seeing each other again, maybe meeting each other everyday. Who knew what life had in store from them.

" Your attention please." Dumbledor said standing up as everyone quieted down.

" Before your ceremony starts you will have a few speakers and a singer performing for you. After your graduation we will have a charmed karaoke machine set up so you may have a change to speak your feelings. But first, miss Hermione Granger." Dumbledor said as Hermione stood up to do her part as valedictorian.

1.1 On the Train ride home

Hermione stared out the window an expressionless mask on her face. A mask, which nobody could see through. But behind the mask lay a saddened heartbroken girl, a girl who had seen more then her share of sorrow, and too little her share of happiness. A girl that was once full of life, but now drained of her hope, her light, her sparkle.

Turning away from the window she drew out her diary and flipped to her last entry and began to read it

Dear diary,

How could he do that to me? He said he cared and being the foolish girl I am, I believed him. I thought he changed, why was he so bend on proving me wrong? I guess I really am on my own. No mother to run to, no father to make mom understand, and most of all no best friend there for me to count on. I guess once again it's just me and my Le Fevre. You know you would think I learned my lesson, but I guess I didn't.

Hermione paused. She could remember that day so clearly. The day when everything went wrong. When her whole life changed…

AN: HAHAHA! You guys must hate me completely now! I didn't finish her train of thought! Sorry but you'll just have to wait. I'm not being very nice am I? Oh ya and I'm going to give you your next chapter then I won't be writing for a while. Cuz I have tons of tests to prep for. Like my High school Algebra assessment. And keeping up all my As or I cant go to Cali over the summer! So I'm probably not going to write for a while. But, I promise before I bury myself in my books I'll write the 3rd chapter.

PS: I think Le Fevre means broken heart…I'll go check my dictionary later.
