Chapter 4
Der Brief (the Letter)
Harry sat, stony faced, again on his bed, clutching an envelope marked with the single letter 'D'.
Not quite sure if he wanted to know what was in the envelope, he lifted the backing slowly and carefully. He pulled the contents out and noticed that like the rest of the box, the pieces of parchment were bound together neatly in what seemed like a particular order. Harry undid the string that kept it together and picked up the first piece of parchment...
*Dearest Drache,
I have been thinking about you a lot lately, well actually my whole life revolves around thoughts of you.
but I just don't know what to do. My love for you has never ended and I don't think it ever will. I wish I could kill myself, but I don't really know how that would help, because then I would still be without you. Well anyways, now I know why you tease my friends but I think that if you gave them a chance they would be really nice to know. I know you dont want to listen to me there but I can only ask. I have asked you before but you've always shaken your head in a firm no. Anyway thats not the point of this letter... I know you broke up with me, I know that you dont love me anymore, but I guess the Gryffindor in me is trying to come to grips with that still. I feel like there is still a glimmer of hope. I know that when you told me you didn't you were struggling with something else, I saw it in your eyes and thats why I slapped you. I couldn't believe that you would break my heart the way you did. I miss you so much it hurts to breathe without you. I sit for hours in my dorm thinking only of you and how we used to be. Dreaming of that moment long ago when we first kissed. Even under the spell it was the most magical and memorable experience ever. Dammit Drache, tomorrow I will see you again and I dont know how I will react, you would think after two weeks I would be over it but I am not. For you were the first and only person I will ever love with all my heart. Harry is great, as a friend, I don't know why I tried to go out with him. I shouldn't of lead him on. But I was upset by you, I wanted to make you jealous, even though that meant bringing Harry into the crossfire. I dont think I could ever give you this letter, because I know your heart is blocked from me, and it's better for me to think that once upon a time you loved me as much as I love you now. One can only dream but I will forever do so.
I wish I could die, I love you so much and everything is falling apart. Love is not supposed to feel like this!
When I was dating Harry, I used to hold his hand and picture it was you instead of him. When he put his arms around me the sensation your arms had brought, remains fresh in my mind. I never meant to hurt you with Harry, I was trying to get over my own pain, but I realised it was so cruel of me to do that to Harry and I broke up with him. I also noticed that your attitude remained unchanged, you were the cold hard shell that so many saw that I broke through so long ago. But you resisted against me, no matter how hard I tried. You stayed that cold, cruel shadow, in my heart.
I wish I could be with you again, I guess it is impossible. Just know that no matter what happens, I will always love you, and never, ever forget you.
Truely and forever yours
Mina*
'Well', Harry thought to himself. Thats why she broke up with me. Poor Hermione, even if it is Draco, she didn't deserve so much pain. He also understood why she had never told him or Ron about their relationship, she knew they would have tried to take her away from him. She really loved him. It made Harry feel better about her death, to know that now her spirit was free and she would have no pain in her heart for Malfoy.
-How wrong could he have been.-
He picked up the next piece of paper, it was a poem.
"In our darkest hour in my deepest despair
Will you still care? will you be there
In my trials and my tribulations
Through our doubts and frustrations
In my violence,.ln my turbulence
Through my fear and my confessions
In my anguish and my pain
Through my joy and my sorrow
In the promise of another tomorrow
I'l never let you part for you're always in my heart"
Harry Potter knew this from the muggle song artist, Michael Jackson.
Next Harry picked up a small bundle wrapped in parchment. He carefully unwrapped it. Inside there was a silver locket with a glittering emerald snake wrapped along the hinge. When Harry opened it, there was a picture of Draco and Hermione looking into each others eyes and smiling. The locket played a song that sounded something like a medieval tune. He was about to wrap it back up before noticing writing on the parchment it was wrapped in.
"Dearest Mina,
Keep this with you and know that through all doubts, I will always love you and the thought of you will never leave my heart. Now you can keep us both together in your heart forever. I love you with all my heart and never forget that.
Love Drache"
Harry held the parchment in awe. He had never known Malfoy to have that kind of emotion in him. But then he guessed, Hermione would know him a lot better.
There was a final piece of parchment. Harry picked it up and nearly dropped it again in shock. It was a suicide plan.
"I cannot take it any longer, I love Drache too much to just let him go but he doesnt want me so I am going to get a dreamless sleep potion and put some deadly nightshade in it so that I never wake up. I've had so much pain already, I want to die but I need no more. I will do this after I get back from Sirius' house with Harry, that way I can say goodbye to him properly. I will see Ron when I get back too. I really must do this though. I can't live another day without Draco. I know that someone might be reading this aside from me, probably Harry because I told my parents if I were to ever die I would want him to keep this box. Harry, just know, I never meant to hurt you, I do love you as my dearest friend. Now you know the truth. You always said that Malfoy has no heart. I beg to differ. You need to target him with the right things. Harry, I want you to give him the letter I wrote him ages ago ok. Please do that one thing for me. Also play him the song 'Will you be there' the whole song, not just the spoken part, he will know what that means. Thankyou Harry, I love you! Tell Ron I love him too. I know you have probably figured out about me and Draco before I hope that you haven't told Ron, but being the smart person you are I doubt you want World War III to happen at Hogwarts. Please don't be sad that I am gone, just know that I will be happy now..."
When Harry had finished reading the letter, a magic stone appeared. Harry held it tightly and the song 'Will you be there' started to play. Harry knew even though Hermione hadn't killed herself, he would still need to play this song and give him the letter. It was what Hermione wanted, and the day she had come to Sirius' house with him had been the day she was killed. She never got the chance to use the sleeping potion.
He decided the best time to give him the letter would be now, seeming as it was a free study period, Draco was sure to be in the library. He wondered how he would react when he heard the song. Harry decided to put their differences aside as he made his way down the halls.
