There he sat. Waiting. Dumbledore had given him five minutes to get his affairs in order, what affairs did he have? No family, the only person he had that was close to a friend was Draco, and no girlfriend. He had nothing. No one benefited from his existence.
'Why am I doing this? Why am I being evil? Why am I killing people and ruining peoples' lives?' Blaise thought as he waited in the room where he was to be "kissed". 'I used to be good, I really did. I use to enjoy life, I used to love. Love. That is the one thing I could use right now. But I created a barrier around me and the whole world, making it impossible to love anyone. If only I could remember why I did this, why I stopped loving.' Blaise thought. 'I remember, a long time ago, before Hogwarts even, I had a friend. Her name was Antoinette. I loved her, and she loved me. But she became sick, she died. It was horrible. I cried, or at least I tried to. "Boys don't cry!" my dad would yell. My mom died years earlier, I barely remember her. After that, I was afraid of getting hurt again, I closed myself off from the world.' Blaise thought. He began to do something that even he was surprised he was doing. He began to cry. 'I feel awful, if only I could go back, start my life over, or even just this year, I could avoid all this, or maybe if I could explain apologize, I need time! My time turner! Taken from me……' his tears turned into sobs.
"What's the matter?" a girl asked.
"Don't get too close, I have a habit of ruining peoples' lives," Blaise answered through sobs.
"I'll take my chances, my life is pretty bad as it is," the girl said, laughing slightly.
"Do I know you?" Blaise asked, looking up.
"Guess not, my name is Sage, I'm a Slytherin, but in fifth year," the girl answered.
"Oh, I'm Blaise, nice to meet you, I'm in here about to get a dementor's kiss, but you've probably heard all about that, from a friend or something," Blaise said.
"I really don't have many friends….." Sage answered sadly.
"Welcome to the club," Blaise said.
"So why are they giving you the dementor's kiss?" Sage asked.
"I killed two people, and tried to make the lives of another two people a living hell, I guess I deserve worse then what I'm getting," Blaise admitted.
"Why did you do it?" Sage asked.
"I guess because my life is so bad, I wanted someone else's to be worse, so that way I wouldn't be completely alone, but I guess no matter what I always will be," Blaise said, his tears returning.
"Well, I'm here for you…." Sage began. She actually rested her head on Blaise's shoulder. Blaise did something even he couldn't explain. He put his arm around Sage's shoulder.
"You know, this is the first I've ever felt close to anyone before," Blaise admitted.
"Me too," Sage said. She leaned up and kissed him on the cheek. Blaise just looked at her for a while. She looked at him. And then, slowly, he leaned in and he kissed her. Soon Blaise felt a warm feeling right in his chest. He reached up to feel it.
"You feel it too?" Sage asked confusedly. He nodded. "What do you suppose it is?" she asked.
"Love," he stated simply, and he kissed her again. Just then the door flew open.
"I'm sorry Blaise, this has to be done," Dumbledore said sadly. A dementor at his right side.
"I'm getting off easily, I deserve so much worse than this," Blaise said strongly.
"DAMN RIGHT YOU DO!!!" Parvati yelled.
"That'll be enough, Miss Patil," Dumbledore said curtly. "Please step away, Sage."
"I'll miss you," Sage said.
"I'll miss you too," Blaise said, kissing her passionately, for the last time. Sage stepped away reluctantly, holding onto his hand for as long as she could. Dumbledore pointed to Blaise reluctantly and the dementor flew right to him. The dementor had grasped Blaise's face and was about to kiss his neck.
"I love you, Blaise!!" Sage yelled.
"I love you too, Sage!!" Blaise yelled, and for three seconds in his life, he felt happy, he felt complete. He smiled as the dementor put its lips to his neck, and that was it.
"NOOOO!!!!!" Sage yelled, the one time in her life she was happy and it was taken from her. She began to sob uncontrollably.
"Sage, you don't understand, he caused misery to all those whom he disliked, what was stopping him from doing the same to you?" Dumbledore asked.
"He…..he said that he loved me!" Sage said.
"He loved you? Are you certain? This is a boy who never allowed anyone to be close to him before in his life, how could he love you, after just meeting you?" Dumbledore asked, quite puzzled.
"Well, he did love me! I'm positive! See for yourself!" Sage persisted.
"Legilimins!!!" Dumbledore said, pointing his wand at the close to lifeless Blaise. He saw in his mind, Blaise couldn't fight back. Dumbledore saw a woman's funeral, with a little baby crying, a young child crying at the loss of a friend, a boy who continually got beaten by his father, a boy who never loved, getting sorted into Slytherin, standing alone, watching everyone else make friends, killing Lavender, wanting to ruin Parvati's life, killing Padma, attempting to attack Hermione, getting beaten, crying alone in that very room, talking to Sage, putting his arm around her, kissing her, holding onto to Sage's hand for as long as he kid, Sage saying that she loved him, him saying he loved her, the dementor's kiss. That was all.
"Well?" Sage asked, still in tears.
"He did love you, I'm so sorry Sage," Dumbledore said, a tear falling down his face. Sage ran out of the room.
"I never thought it possible, for Blaise to love, and feel other human emotions, he just never seemed normal," Hermione said sadly.
"He wasn't, Miss Granger, he was different. He wouldn't look for love, assuming his heart would just get broken anyway, he chose to live his life miserably, he wanted to separate himself from the rest of the world. But just before he died, he was happy. He had found love. Or I should say, that it found him," Dumbledore explained. Hermione felt weak. She wanted to cry. She took Severus's hand, and held it as hard she could. Dumbledore and Parvati left the room. Snape and Hermione just stood there. Hermione was just looking straight ahead, holding Snape's hand. Snape leaned in and he kissed her on the cheek.
"I love you," he said.
"I love you too, Severus," Hermione said. They walked out of the room, hand in hand.
A/N: well, Blaise got what he had coming to him, right? Right? I know a lot of you wanted Blaise to suffer the dementor's kiss, but do you still wish that? I'm really curious, so please, all my readers, give your opinion on that. Anyway, the war should be starting soon. Thanks to all my reviewers. Keep them coming, I want to know your opinions and suggestions! Anyway, I'm hoping for this story to be at least 21 chapters, but that might be hard. I won't settle for less than 20 though. I'll update tomorrow!
