Chapter 5

"wirst du da sein" ("Will you be there")

Draco toyed with his quill over the blank piece of parchment in front of him. He couldn't concentrate with the dream echoing through his mind every five seconds. His eyes wandered over the book near him. It was basic potions work, but it did not register in his mind. The words made no sense...

Life Draught

*Two crushed mandrake bulbs
*A pinch of gold dust
*Essence of phoenix tail
*Diced pixie ears
*Pond Water

-Fill cauldron half full of boiled pond water.
-Add two crushed mandrake bulbs to create the healing component of the potion
-Stir clockwise for thirty seconds
-While liquid is still in motion, add a pinch of gold dust created by the Philosophers stone.
-Pour in two thirds of the essence of phoenix tail and stir anticlockwise for five minutes before adding one hundred grams of diced pixie ears.
-Re heat until bubbles appear on top. Then add the rest of the essence of phoenix tail.

Serving size : For healing draught, use diluted in drink, One part potion, Three parts Pumpkin Juice (or similar)
For beyond death healing, use as strong as necessary

*The Life Draught is said to be able to bring someone back from the dead, or heal someone seriously ill. If potion is unable to be taken, use a material associated with the person, such as a lock of hair or a piece of clothing.*

As Draco read, he thought bitterly of how it was too late to save Hermione. He didn't have anything of hers anymore. Only memories and dreams.

Suddenly an envelope was tossed onto the pile of parchments and Harry Potter appeared in front of him.

"What do you want Potter?" he spat out angrily "and what is this rubbish?" he picked up the envelope and turned it over. 'D' "What the? is this some kind of joke?"

"I wish it was Malfoy but no, I am just following instructions mind you. If it were up to me you would never see the contents of this envelope."

"What? Who's instructions?"

"Hermione's. you were so cruel to her Malfoy. I guess you never did have feelings. You strung her along for quite a while! You know if you 'Lord' hadn't killed her she was going to do it herself!"

"Potter what on earth are you talking about? I never spoke to Granger aside from my usual forms of flattery"

"Oh yes *Drache*, *Mina* will be very happy to hear you say that."

At Harry's emphasis of his personal nickname for Hermione and hers for him, Draco's eyes widened. "Who, what, when?"

"She wrote a suicide plan and in it, told me to give you that letter and play this song which was hidden in a magic stone."

All disputes aside for the time being Draco looked at Harry questioningly.

"What song?"

Harry pulled out a small white stone. He squeezed it and the sound of a piano began to play...

Hold me, like the river Jordan
And I will then say to thee
You are my friend
Carry me, like you are my brother
Love me like a mother
Will you be there...

Weary tell me will you hold me
When wrong will you scold me
When lost will you find me?
But they told me a man should be faithful
And walk when not able
And fight till the end but I'm only human

Everyone taking control of me
Semms that the world's
Got a role for me , I'm so confused
Will you show to me you'll be there for me
And care enough to bare me

(Hold me) (Lay your head lowly)
(Softly then boldly) (Carry me there)
(Hold me) (Love me and feed me)
(Kiss me and free me) (I will feel blessed)
(Carry) (carry me boldly) (Lift me up slowly)
(Carry me there) (save me) (heal me and bathe me)
(Softly you say to me) (I will be there)
(Lift me) (Lift me up slowly)
(Carry me boldly) (show me you care)
(Hold me) (Lay your head lowly)
(Softly then boldly) (Carry me there)
(Need me) (Love me and feed me)
(Kiss me and free me) (I will feel blessed)

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, In 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'll never let you part, for you're always in my heart.

Draco sat in horrible silence. As the words of the song floated through his head, the feeling of his heart crumbling and sinking to the pit of his stomach was almost too hard to bare. He felt the tears not wanting the boy to see his pain but Harry just looked at him and said "I know it hurts Draco. At least she loved you. What made you stop loving her? She needed you!"

"What makes you think I stopped loving her?" Draco questioned although he remembered what he had said to her as clear as if it was yesterday.

"She wrote it in her poetry, oh yeah, I also thought you might want this back, it was in Hermione's memory box." Harry pulled out a silver locket entwined with a snake.

Draco gasped. It was the nexklace he had given Hermione on their sixth month anniversary.

"Why are you doing this to me Potter?! You don't know what's going on! Everything is too much for me to handle. Do you think it's easy to hide how I feel?!" his hair fell over his eyes as he looked painfully up at Harry. "Goddamn it I love her. I've always loved her, I've never ever stopped. The song, this necklace, they were our promises to each other that we would always love each other."

"Why did you hurt her so badly by telling her you didn't love her anymore?"

"I had to. If I told you, it would be betraying everything I stand for."

"What you stand for?! Thats ridiculous Malfoy. If you loved her you wouldn't of broken her heart like that!"

"You don't know the full story. Hell she didn't even know. Fuck! Fine, if you must know I will tell you. But only because you were her best friend. She always asked me to try to be friends with you. I guess I need to trust you now. We never told anyone how our relationship started. IT was like our big secret. No one knew about it except us-"

"Draco! Just get to it will you!!"

"Alright alright! well in our fifth year you may remember both me and Hermione fainted and were in a coma for two nights?"

"Yes you both collapsed at the same time and woke up at the same time. It was after Hermione hexed you wasn't it?"

"Yes thats right, well we were transported into another dimension where we were given a Love Draught, you know what that does don't you?"

"Well duh! Obviously it was the Opposites Attract number"

"Yeah, well the love draught was weird. The people there all talked strangely, like Shakespearean. AS you might of guessed, Mina had a field day. So much untouched history..." Draco paused on the memory and Harry marvelled at the rich European accent Draco produced Hermione's nickname with. "Anyway, we had to go to this debate thing and this thing just clicked inside me. I looked at her ans saw her as the most beautiful person I'd ever seen. I know it was the spell but when the spell wore off I still couldn't get enough of her. It was amazing. I've loved her every day of my life since then and I don't think I'll ever stop. The reason I broke up with her was because my father discovered a letter she had written to me and threatened to kill her if I persisted with her. So I had to break up with her because I'd rather her to not talk to me than her be dead. I knew that if I told her why I was breakind up with her she'd be a typical Gryffindor and try to help me over come my father, but I knew no matter what, she would of been in danger. You know Hermione, Harry, you know how determined she can be. So I told her I didn't love her anymore and she slapped me. My father noticed tje change and told me she was a 'lucky mudblood.' Then a month later she's dead! You have no idea how hard it has been for me to conceal my pain Harry!"

Harry was in shock, Draco Malfoy had just confided in him his deepest secret and said his first name twice in one sentence. He suddenly felt sorry for Draco but didn't know how to help. he didn't really have anything to say. So he just mumbled, "I wish we could bring her back". Thats when Draco's potions homework finally became clear again.
