Betrayal chapter two.
Hermiony couldn't stand the thought of what she had done; she knew that there was something than would end it all. She would kill herself. Later that night she would go to the top of the astronomy tower and jump off, it seemed like a good idea ending it all so that she didn't have to suffer any more. The first thing she had to do was compose her goodbyes in a letter. How would she start what could she right that would sum up what she wanted to say.
She wanted to say goodbye to everyone so that is what she did, when the pen was put to paper she wrote.
"To all who have loved and supported me throughout my life." Yes that's a good start, what to put next.
"I am sorry that you have been berrived in this way but I cannot live with myself another minute." Pausing she let a tear drop from her face and allowed it to splatter onto the parchment and dribble down.
"I am sorry to whoever find's me and to Albus Dumbledore who will have this circling over the reputation of the school."
Now she had to finish but could not think of a sensitive and calming way to put it so all that was written was.
"Goodbye."
As Hermiony folded the parchment and laid it on her bed she drew back and pulled her curtains around it. Now she pattered through the great hall walking up stairs and through corridors till she got to the astronomy corridor, hoping that nobody was inside she pushed the door and made her way through. She was right deserted; spotting the trapdoor that led to his roof she forced her way through, now wind was whipping past her making her eyes sour. Tears screamed down her face from both the wind and the the mixtures of fear and sadness flowing through her. And she sat on the edge just waiting.
After about five minuets of solitude there was a soft thump behind her but she did not turn she knew who the being was.
"Hello Draco."
And he laughed; it was a terribly engaging laugh without the bitter edge it had taken when they were enemies. Nevertheless Hermiony was not fooled, charming as Draco seemed he was dangerous almost beyond imagination. That graceful lounging body was ten times stronger than an ordinary wizard
Those lazy green eyes were adapted to seeing perfectly in the dark and the long fingered hand that was resting on his knee could move with incredible quickness.
Most disturbing of all was his mind, the mind of a killer, a predator she could feel it just beneath his surface, he as different from a human. He had lived so long by hunting and killing that he had forgotten any other way, and he enjoyed it.
He had no morals and no conscience; she was stuck here with him.
He was as quick as a striking snake just resting there. His lips parted in a quick breath.
"I may have to make you my queen of shadows'." Hermiony was chilled she couldn't hold back her shudder. Draco's eyes flashed with understanding but he took the setback with good grace. Then a new look flickered in those light eyes.
Hermiony said nothing she had made her way into a corner agreeing to play the deadly game of his again she looked away.
"I am going to have you you know, I am the most dangerous thing you will ever encounter in your whole life." he paused. "A few hours of your time, a few drops of your blood, an hour, or so spent with you alone. Ill have it anyway if your honest with yourself you'll admit that last time wasn't the last, why not accept that." His voice dropped into a warm intimate timbre. "Remember…."
"I would rather do this." And she flung herself over the edge, knowing that she had caught him Overgaard, closing her eyes she expected impact instead she felt something around her wrist. His hand.
