Hi again. I think this chapter will be longer than the other two but we'll see how it turns out when I'm finished typing it... NEwayz this is a song-based chapter and there are just a mix of songs as it progresses.

Chapter 3

I Cry

Surprise! My 'Dad' hasn't found me yet. Though life with Harry and Ron is kind of crazy. Lupin is the only one who likes my new look. I'm surprised about that though, seeing as he is an 'adult'. But he is full of surprises isn't he?

" So when are we leaving tomorrow morning?" I ask eager to know what their plan is for the train ride.

" 9:30. Why? Need extra beauty sleep?" Ron says.

" No though I do belive you should go to sleep earlier Ronald." I say and smile evily.

" HEY!" Ron and Harry say.

" I wasn't talking to you Harry. But you sure might need some extra sleep too babydoll...."

" Ok..." he didn't get it, " Wait, HEY!" I love boys they are so stupid.

" Wow. Took you long enough."

On the train station in the Head compartment, I Had finally fallen asleep when I was tossed back into my nightmares again.

I was running from something that looked like a shadow. I stopped infront of a mirror where my reflection came to life and started talking again. ' The one farthest will come to aid you...' then the shadow came, engulfed me in darkness, and suddenly I was looking at myself. A single bloody handprint went across the mirror.... A door appeared and as I reached for the handle someone shook me awake.

" What happened?" I asked.

" You were mumbling and crying. We're an hour from school. And I did our duties for the train." Draco said.

You are not who they say you are

They made you the enemy

Taken something so beautiful

Painted a new picture that makes me sick

" Thanks for waking me up. It so doesn't become you though." I say and he looks at me. His eyes.... almost warm.

" And why doesn't it become me?" he says as he fills the gap at my feet. " Am I so cold as not to be able to be nice?" his eyes burn into mine. The cold gray turning into a soft shade of blue.

" Well-" I am lost in his eyes. How could something so cold, be so warm? " You always seemed- well- ice like." I say since that is the only thing I could get out.

" Really?" the door slides open and Harry sees how close I am to him.

" Can we talk?" the three most dreaded words in the world.

I glance at Draco, " Yeah." As I stand and leave I can feel his gaze on my head.

I never could have seen this far

" Hermione.... We can't do this anymore." my face pales.

" But.... why?" I ask.

I never could have seen this coming

It seems my whole world is falling apart

" You are just getting emotionally too hard to handle. And your looks and house, I don't think I could put up with it anymore."

Why is everthing so hard?

I don't think that I can deal

With the things you said

It just won't go away...

" How- how could you? After everything we've been through... how could you do that to us?"

" I am so sorry." he turns and walks down the hall.

In a perfect world

This could never happen

You'd still be here

And it makes no sense

I can just pick up the pieces

But to you, this means nothing

Nothing at all

The promise that I made that I wouldn't cry completely went out the window when I walked in to the compartment and saw Draco's eyes. I cried about everything. Harry, my dad, my mom, my depression, and everything else that was bothering me. I collapse to my knees in tears.

Do you ever feel like breaking down?

Do you ever feel out of place?

Like somehow you just don't belong

And no one understands you

" Everything... just came crashing..... down all.... all around me.... why me?" I let loose. I am surprised when Draco comforts me. " First my mom, then my dad starts, then Harry leaves? What the hell did I do to deserve this?"

" Shhhh..... calm down. Just stop crying.... Please." Why is he so...nice?

My crying slows at the shocking realization that the Draco Malfoy- The Slytherine Prince- is comforting and holding me. Why do I feel so comfortable? So calm? I sniffle and my tears stop after a few minutes, " There you go. Now come on what did the Boy-Who-Wouldn't-Die say to you to get you worked up like this?"

" Nothing you'd care about." I say and sit on a bench with my knees to my chest. He looks at me, hurt in his eyes.

" What do I have to do to prove myself to you?" he whispers. Wait.... my dream. He- he does fit the profile.... " I am not my father. No matter how much you think I am, I'm really not. Can't you just belive me?" his voice is chokey and dripping with emotion. True emotion. Something I never thought Draco had in him. The train slowed to a stop and I stood up.

" Make me trust you." I say and walk out leaving a very dumbfounded Draco behind me.

Well, it is long. I hope everyone is enjoying my story. The two songs are:
