Author's Note: This is my second fanfic. I think it is better than my
first, 'By the Lake'. This is not a songfic but I admit that I got the
title from the song 'In the End' by Linkin Park. I really like their songs.
Well, enjoy reading!!!!! r/r
(OLIVER'S FAVE CHASER-Thanks for your review. No offense but don't you think that there are more D/Hr fans than R/Hr? I also think Ron and Hermione will be better as bestfriends. But, suit yourself on what you want to think about them.)

Chapter One: We met just to say goodbye
~*~*~*~*~*Draco's POV*~*~*~*~*~
I didn't want to end it this way. But I just have to or else both of us will suffer just because of me. My father knows all about us. He told me to end the bond that we made. As I sneaked to the lake, I thought that this is the last time…..we'll be together. I was late for 10 minutes and there she was scolding about punctuality. "Do you know what time is it?" she said.
"It's 11:40. I know I'm late. But I'm sorry." I said as I walked towards her and embraced her. Showing her how sorry I am.
"That's okay, Draco." she said with a sweet smile. I want us both to hold on to each other like this but here I am, leaving her and letting her go.
~*~*~*~*~*Hermione's POV*~*~*~*~*~
He embraced me as if we were to be separated from each other. I know time will come that we will because of me being a Gryfinndor and Draco, a Slytherin.
I smiled at him telling him that I forgive him for his tardiness. But he didn't give a smile, even just a small one. He looks problematic and gloomy. "Anything wrong?" I said as I looked at his gray eyes. And by the way he looks at me, he is.
"Nothing really but I'll tell you later" he replied and kissed me. A kiss filled with unknown happiness, passion, grief and pain. Not the same kisses he gives me that was full of love.
He broke the kiss and led me by the lake where we always sit together and talk about anything. He was so silent as we watch the dark sky. I can't believe we never got tired of watching the sky every other day since the Christmas Ball last year in 6th year.
We didn't speak for how many minutes. Then he pulled me into a very deep kiss. I was frightened not because he kissed me suddenly but as if he is running after time. Curious of his behavior, I broke the kiss and looked at him straight in the eye.
"Please Draco, tell me what's wrong." I said worriedly.
~*~*~*~*~*Draco's POV*~*~*~*~*~
She asked what's wrong with me. I can't think of any easier way to get through with this. I'll just have to tell her directly then.
"`Mione, after 2 years of secretly having an affair with you; I wanted to tell you that after our exams tomorrow, I'm leaving for Rome."
"For what? You'll come back, right?"
"I don't know when but my father knew about us and he'll send me to Rome for my training as a traditional Malfoy." I told her. I embraced her as tears started falling from her eyes.
"Why? Why will you go there when it's against your will? It's so unfair!" she said having a hard time to talk because of her sobs.
"I'm sorry. I can't answer that. Just remember that I love you."
"How could I think that you love me when I won't feel it?" she told me. She pushed me away from her and turned her back. "Well, if that is your decision, it's fine with me. But don't expect that when you're gone, I'll look for you and cry. I swear I can find someone better than you. Let's just say we met to say goodbye." she said without anger. She looked at me and smiled then she left me. "Goodbye, Draco." was her last words for me.
~*~*~*~*~*Hermione's POV*~*~*~*~*~*
I left him there as I said goodbye. It hurts me a lot but still I didn't want him to know. I sneaked back to our dormitory, changed into my nightgown and went to bed. With tears in my eyes, sparkling in the night.
When I woke up, it felt like nothing happened last night. The same Hermione went to the Great Hall with her friends, Harry, Ron and Ginny; and ate breakfast. I saw him at the Slytherin table but before he looked at my direction, I turned away.
I was avoiding him the whole day until he was out of Hogwarts. Instead of feeling obsessed with him, I thought that it's not worth crying for. I still have a future and life. I still have my friends, my family and Hogwarts who will love me.
I decided to go to the muggle world and start a life there. I just hope it will work. I told Harry to keep me in touch of the wizarding world. I left that night after Draco was gone. Harry and Ron were on mission to look for Voldemort because Harry felt his scar burn again. I can't do anything about that. I didn't want to go because they told me they'd follow Draco. They were suspicious about him, why he was leaving so early and can't wait for tomorrow. They told Professor Dumbledore that they were leaving. And the professor let them go. He trusted them. But he told them that they would follow after the Ministry was informed. Before they left, Harry gave me Hedwig. She was to be our means of communication. I knew Harry and Ron would do it. They wanted to be aurors and they are fulfilling it as I leave the wizarding world.
Author: I'm sorry if this chapter is short. Please review so I'll know if I will make the story longer or shorter. And also some advice so I could improve my writing skills. Chapter 2 is up! (^_^)
