Chapter 8
A/N: Sorry about the song in this chapter. I just love that movie and I wanted to put it in here. Oh, and forgive me about the other song too. I thought it went perfectly with the fic.
Disclaimer: See the end of the fic...I don't want to ruin the songs for anyone.

Kitty reached the bottom of the stairs and headed for the main entrance. On her way, she passed through the Great Hall where Professors Sirius Black and Remus Lupin were cleaning up after the dance. They noticed Kitty and waved her over.
"Yes?" she asked.
"Kitty! Congratulations!" Sirius exclaimed.
"Thank you," Kitty smiled. Sirius was one of her favorite teachers.
"Yes, good job," Remus added. Remus was like a father to her. Her parents had died in a plane accident 5 years ago. "Oh, and aren't you supposed to meet Ron by the lake?"
"Yeah, how did you know?" Kitty wondered.
"Oh, you'll find out when you make it to the door," Sirius smiled slyly.
Kitty gave them a curious sideways look, then headed toward the door. When she got there, she gasped. There lay a single rose petal and above it written in smoke were the words, "Kitty, follow the roses to my heart." She smiled. No need to guess who did this. It was obviously Ron. She looked down and noticed the rose petals continued on into the darkness, but as she approached a petal, it would light up, showing the next one behind it. Finally, kitty made it to the end of the trail of petals and discovered a bouquet of red roses on the ground. She kneeled down and picked them up, smelling their sweet odor. She smiled, thinking how sweet Ron was. As if on cue, Ron came out from behind a nearby tree.
"Hey, baby," he said. He was still in his dress robes and his hair was messy due to the light breeze that was blowing at the moment.
"Hey!" Kitty exclaimed. "Oh my gosh, Ron! What you've done is amazing!"
"Well, I try," he joked.
Kitty laughed, then walked over to Ron. "You do a very good job," she cooed.
"Are you sucking up to me?" he grinned.
"Oh yes, you know it. I have to suck up to you, you sexy thing," she rolled her eyes.
Ron laughed and pulled Kitty in for a romantic kiss. At that moment, Draco came sneaking up behind a tree and watched them. Kitty returned it, then pulled away. "Am I here for something?" Kitty pretended to wonder.
"Only because your loving boyfriend has something to ask you."
Kitty's heart began to pound. 'What's up with all these questions today?' she wondered. "Ok, ask away," she said.
Ron shifted uncomfortably. "Well, first I want to tell you something."
Kitty tilted her head and looked at Ron, waiting in anticipation.
Ron cleared his throat and began singing softly.
Never knew I could feel like this
Like I've never seen the sky before.
I want to vanish inside your kiss
Every day I'm loving you more and more.
Listen to my heart, can you hear it sings
Telling me to give you everything?
Seasons may change, winter to spring
But I love you until the end of time. Come what may,
Come what may,
I will love you until my dying day.
Kitty smiled and began singing the next verse.
Suddenly the world seems such a perfect place
Suddenly it moves with such a perfect grace.
Suddenly my life doesn't seem such a waste
It all revolves around you.
Ron joined in and began singing in tune with Kitty as Draco watched in amazement and wonder.
And there's no mountain too high,
No river too wide.
Sing out this song I'll be there by your side.
Storm clouds may gather
And stars may collide,
But I love you until the end of time.
Come what may,
Come what may,
I will love you until my dying day.
Oh, come what may, come what may,
I will love you...
Suddenly the world seems such a perfect place.
Come what may
Come what may
I will love you until my dying day.
Kitty and Ron stood there for a few moments, holding hands and staring deeply into each others eyes. Then Kitty leaned in to kiss Ron, but he pulled away. She looked at him confused. Ron sighed.
"Kitty," he began, looking into her eyes with deep sincerity.
"Yes, Ron?" she looked back.
"I love you."
"I love you too, Ron," At this, Draco edged closer to hear more.
"I love you more than you can imagine," Ron said. Then, taking a deep breath, he said, "I love you more than life itself."
Kitty just stared, speechless. She wanted to tell him she loved him too, but she couldn't believe that she was hearing this.
"Kitty," Ron said kneeling down on one knee, but never letting go of Kitty's hand. Kitty's breathing got faster as she suspected what was coming next. Draco gripped the tree bark in anticipation. "I love you more than anything else in the world, and I would love it if you would become my wife after the graduation tomorrow. Kitty Jameson, will you marry me?" he asked, pulling a blue box out of his pocket and opening it to expose a beautiful diamond ring.
Kitty looked at Ron with tears in her eyes. Now was the time to sort out her priorities. 'Think, Kitty, think,' she told herself. 'You love Ron more than anything else in the world too,' a voice inside her said, and her decision was clear.
"Ron, you mean the world to me. I would love to marry you."
Ron's smile could not be described in words, and neither could Draco's heartbroken look. Kitty pulled Ron up and gave him an enormous embrace, which he returned gladly.
"Come on," he grinned, "let's go tell everyone the great news."
Kitty smiled in agreement, and hand in hand, they disappeared into the castle. Draco looked after them, then sank down against the tree. He was too heartbroken for words, but he understood that Kitty loved Ron more than she ever did him. He looked after Kitty once more, then began to sing very quietly, barely above a whisper.
I'm trying to forget that
I'm addicted to you.
But I want it and I need it
I'm addicted to you.
Now it's over
Can't forget what you said.
And I never wanna do this again.
Heartbreaker...
How long will I be waiting?
Until the end of time.
I don't know why I'm still waiting
I can't make you mine.
Heartbreaker,
I'm addicted to you...
Draco sadly trailed off. "I love you Kitty, but this is for your own good," he said aloud. "And mine too," he added as he formed a plan of action in his mind. 'Kitty might be hurt, but it's for the best,' he told himself.
