A/N: Hey! I hoped you liked the other chapter, bit of a cliffhanger! Well this chap is, well, a bit sad and stuff.

Chapter 5 (WOW I'm on chapter 5!)

Draco stood up and walked to the couch nearby, pulling Saydee with him. He sat down and Saydee curled up next to him, resting her head on his chest. He wrapped his arms around her.

"I just needed to say," Draco started, "that, well, the other night, when you told me what my reputation around school is," He paused again, "it's not entirely inaccurate." He finished with a note of shame hidden in his voice.

"What-" Saydee started, suddenly sitting up.

"I mean, I have been with a lot of girls, but" another pause, he was unsure of how to say it, "I've only slept with one of them." He looked back at Saydee, and her eyes were closed, and a single small tear was running down her cheek, he had no idea what to say.

"I – I knew it." She managed through gritted teeth and trembling lips. "You are just how I thought you would be!" She was now on her feet. "I, I just knew it!"

"No! Saydee, listen, it's not like that, I just thought I should tell you." He paused again, passion evident in his words, "Even though I've gone out with all of those girls and all, and at first I just wanted to go out with you for the same reason-" as he said this Saydee turned her back, becoming more distant with each word.

"And what would that reason be?" She spat at him. "So I could just be another girl in your little game?" She cut him off, "Just another girl you could say you went out with, just another girl that you could go out with for a weak and drop just like nothing had happened, that's all I am to you." Her voice was now breaking and more teers where flowing from her eyes. "I just can't believe I thought you where genuine."

"Saydee, please, let me finish." Draco's voice was also shaking, but with fear and pain. "You're right, that is exactly what I thought at first, you where just another, but not know, you are so much different then any other girl I have ever gone out with. I can't describe this feeling I have with you, I – I, . . ." His voice trailed off. Saydee turned and saw draco now on his feet, his head hanging, he looked so alone. "I'm sorry, I just had to tell you."

Saydee turned to face him completely and she buried her tear stained face in his chest. "Don't be sorry," She said between sobs, "I feel the same way, I'm so glad you told me." He put his arms around her, and just held her, deep in his heart, unsure as his brain might be about it, he knew he loved her.

In the days that followed Draco and Saydee where near inseperable, and Saydee's night mares increased. She had even began falling asleep in classes, waking up suddenly, then pretending nothing had happened. Draco decided to talk to her.

It was a lovely winter afternoon, two days before Christmas vacation, Draco and Saydee where sitting in the common room, talking with a group of friends. They where sitting on a couch Draco leaning against the arm Saydee sitting in between his legs, her head nestled under his chin. As they talked Draco noticed that Saydee's head was becoming increasingly heavy on his chest. When he looked down he noticed that she had fallen asleep.

"Not again." He mumbled. He then carefully sat up and gently shook her shoulders to wake her. Her eyes finally fluttered open and she looked up at him grogilly. "Are you alright?" He asked, she simply shook her head yes. "Come on." He said getting up. "I want to talk to you." He seemed concerned, and he quickly excused them from the group and he lead the way up to his dormatory.

Being as priveleged as he was, Draco had his own private bedroom. It was in the top of one of the turrets of the castle. The room was spacious, there was a fireplace with a warm fire burning in the grate on the far side of the room, in front of it was a green rug with a small table and two chairs faacing the fire. Just to the left of the door was a large wardrobe and next to that on the other wall was the door to a bathroom. Positioned in the corner between the fire and the bathroom door was Draco's desk, scattered with pieces of parchment, books and quills. The right hand wall beyond the bed was a large curve and had tall windows overlooking the grounds in the direction of the quidditch pitch. Below the windows, also in a curve, was a comfortable window seat that ran the middle length of the windows.
Saydee walked in after Draco and wondered to the middle of the room, looking around taking in the comfort and style of the whole room. Draco turned and locked the door behind him.

"I didn't know you had your own room." Saydee said.

"Yeah, it's not much, really." Draco answered, then quickly changed the topic. "I need to ask you something."

"Alright." She replied, following him to the chairs in front of the fire and sitting in one.

"I don't really know how to say this, but," he started, very uneasy with what he was going to ask, "I notice that you fall asleep in weird places, a lot." Saydee just stared back at him, unsure of how to answer. "I mean," he continued, seeing her confusion, "is there a reason?"

"Draco, I was going to tell you, there was just never a good time to do it, well," tears where welling in her eyes already. "I haven't been able to sleep well, not since Sometime last year. I don't know if you know, but my father - is a death eater, and, and of coarse I was expected to follow the same path. But soon," More tears where now flowing down her cheeks and her voice was shaking. "I realized that that kind of life was, well not for me. I wanted to – to, be on the other side." Draco stared, dumbfound as she continued, he did not expect this. "I finally told my father at Christmas break last year and he, he." She finally broke down, memory flooding her.

"It's alright." Draco comforted her.

"He tried to kill me!" She shouted becoming almost angry now. "Well, not tried, he would have, but something stopped him. He told me to never come back."

"He tried to kill you? How?"

"With this," She said, showing him a black locket on a silver chain around her neck. "I've had since I was born, it's magically linked to my father, only he can take it off me and if he does, I – I'll die."
