~ You Give Love A Bad Name ~

- an angel's smile is what you sell
you promise me heaven, then put me throught hell
chains of love got a hold on me
when passion's a prison, you can't break free -

Hermione was considered the perfect student... That's what everyone thought, anyway. But Draco knew this wasn't the case. He had watched her over the summer break, sort of as a hobby. What he learned shocked him. Hermione was...different...outside of school. She broke many hearts with her dangerous, sexy charm. Somehow - even though he knew what was in store, he fell, and hard at that.

- you're a loaded gun
there's nowhere to run
no one can save me
the damage is done -

Draco had confronted her with hunger in his eyes. She seemed to sense his desperation, and decided that she wanted to turn a few heads anyway. Draco was so blinded by love and lust that he failed to notice that all she was doing was toying with his emotions. He realized all too late.

- shot through the heart
and you're to blame
you give love a bad name
I play my part, and you play your game
you give love a bad name
you give love a bad name -

Hermione had begun to recieve some looks from the male population upon arrival back at Hogwarts. They had sensed the change in her. She showed off Draco as a trophy, and was added as a potential threat on the radar of all girls, Slytherins in particular. It seemed the more the guys loved her, the more the girls hated her. Though none openly voiced their opinion, it was written on each and every one of their faces.

- you paint your smile on your lips
blood red nails on your fingertips
a school boy's dream, you act so shy
your very first kiss was your first kiss goodbye -

The school year went on with Hermione braking more rules as well as hearts. Draco was still oblivious to all the deception taking place. They put on shows of " affection " in the corridors. Basicly with Hermione posing for the guys and Draco caught in a one-sided love.

- you're a loaded gun
there's nowhere to run
no one can save me
the damage is done -

After a fight, Draco started to notice the looks being exchanged by Hermione and the other guys. Blaise Zambini in particular. Hermione became careless - flaunting her body and leaving " secret " notes lying around on the floor. And Draco began to wonder...

- shot through the heart
and you're to blame
you give love a bad name
I play my part and you play your game
you give love a bad name -

Steel gray eyes overlook the courtyard. Silvery blonde hair is tossed in the wind. And tears stream down pale cheeks. Draco stands atop the astronomy tower, finally coming to grip with the fact that he has been had. Hermione used him. In a way he knew this would happen, but for once in his life he had been happy, and he didn't want it to be true.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
It had hurt when she dumped him, but even more so that he had been lied to! He raised the gun - the cold steel glinting in the moonlight. A crazed smile pasted on his lips. He gazed up at the sky a final time, and pulled the trigger.

- shot through the heart
and you're to blame -

He pictured Hermione through his tears. If only he had loved her under other circumstances. He mumbled more to the night than himself, " Damn you, bitch! " His body was shutting down. And with a sigh Draco managed to yell...

- " you give love a bad name " -
