Recap from last chapter
I stared at him with hurt in my eyes. Unable to resist the temptation, I gave him a slap.
"Hermione! I'm sor-" he started.
"No," I spat, spinning around and walking away.
Chapter 20 - Lost Without You
Draco's POV
She rejected me. She rejected me. She rejected me.
I repeated those words to myself, hardly processing. I slumped down the bench in the garden. This time, this time it's real.
This time she's dumping me.
She's leaving me.
Alone.
For Ron.
Hermione's POV
I ran and ran, fresh tears flowing out of my eyes. Not looking where I was going, I ran smack into Ron. Ron was surprised and put his arms around me.
"Shhh... it's okay..." he consoled.
But it's not. It never will be. I couldn't face the facts. I could hardly believe my courage.
To tell you the truth, I have no idea. People look at me like I'm some brainy genius when actually I'm not. I just happen to like reading. I'm stupid at times too. Like now. I have absolutely no idea about everything. Like why I was sorted into Gryffindor when I'm not at all brave.
And why I had to be in love with, of all people, Draco.
Or why I gave him up.
My heart felt as if someone had shot me. I had never felt so completely lost before. Because this time, this time it's real. I knew, I knew that it would never happen to me and Draco again.
For the last time, I glanced back, my face tear-streaked.

Okay, I better get started on my sequel. They get older and graduates from Hogwarts. Let me warn you, it's PG 13, for violence. =P
