He was waiting for her, watching her do her side of the plan, but failing. She wasn't fast enough, and her breath was getting shallower. She had to run. Faster. She had to go faster. Evil was catching up to her. The one his heart loved was going to die; she had to get to him. But she couldn't seem to go faster. He stood helpless, watching the tears running down her cheek.

"Run Faster!" He cried at her. That's all she had to do, she was so close. He watched as she cried harder. "You won't make it." The portal was right next to him, he could feel it pulsating. He wouldn't leave without her, no way. But she didn't seem to have enough strength to reach it. Her body was shaking and trembling trying to stay on her feet. His heart went out to her. Oh god, she had to go faster.

"I… can't." He could hear her panic in her voice. She looked into his eyes. "Please… wait." He reached out for her and then saw something that caught his eye. Evil had raised its wand. He heard Avada kedavra and orbed as quick as he could. He had to imagine exactly what she was thinking to get inside her. Oh god, please be worried, he thought. Then he was in. Halleluiah. He used his spirit to strengthen her.

"I'm here my love, do not despair. I will be with you always." He thought to her, knowing she would hear him. Telling her that he was still here. He felt her smile. He looked out through her eyes and could see Evil slowly walking toward her. His mincing laugh shot fear through her body and he could feel her fear. He told her what he knew would comfort her. "My love, you shall be safe. As long as I am here you will not be harmed." Again, she smiled.

"I love you, Aidan," She thought to him. He strengthened her again. Then heard her say "Any last words?" his mouth moving along with hers.

But Evil just laughed. "You silly girl." Draco heard. "You really think you and your little boy toy can kill ultimate Evil?"

That pissed him off. He sent another strong wave of energy through her, she started to circle around Evil, and he could feel her legs moving. "A. He is not my boy toy, he is my fiancé, get it right idiot." Draco smiled within her. "Who said I want to kill you? And C. You are NOT ultimate evil, trust me." She raised her wand and shouted, "Fontonata!"

Evil started melting… slowly. Draco could see his eyes start to dissolve and his arm drip. Evil looked at her and smiled. Well... what was left of his smile. "Clever girl. Who knew that Iris Granger was so strong? And vicious. But, not for long. Until your kin can love openly you shall never defeat me." And with that he stopped melting. He looked into her eyes, and stated simply with a drawl of disgust hinting through, "Aidan Malfoy, how nice to see you again." And then he shimmered out.

Draco woke up and rolled over, expecting Hermione to be gone, and a note left for him. He opened his eyes and almost jumped. She lay next to him, her eyes open watching him. The room was still warm and the covers were now over them. She smiled slightly and he felt even warmer. This was how he wanted to wake up every day. She scooted over toward him and lay with her head only a few inches away from hers.

"Draco, I had that dream again last night." Her smile slowly faltered a little.

"Me too." He stroked her hair gently.

"I'm kind of scared…" She closed her eyes, taking comfort in his touch.

"Yah, but I'll be here for you. I'm not going anywhere." He told her looking at her face, staring everywhere for a hint of the fear she confessed to. But of course he could find none. "I promise."

She nodded and flipped over so her back was to his chest. Then she scooted back so that her back was against his chest. The warmth of his body and the scent of him instantly calmed all of her fears. She closed her eyes, and reviewed the dream. Every word replayed in her head. Every scene, every feeling, again. But she wouldn't let it distract her. She knew that there must be a reason for them to be getting the dreams, yet she couldn't find out exactly what. They ended up having to get ready for classes, and parted their own ways. He smiled and kissed her on the forehead before steeping outside of the room.


He slicked back his hair and went to potions, waiting for her to come in. They were both silently ignoring each other, yet not, when she finally realized why she had been getting the dreams. She didn't know what to do though, because she needed to tell him but she knew that she would have to tell him in person, not by paper. She ripped outa piece of parchmentand quickly wrote to him.

Draco I need you to call me a Mud blood.

What? No.

Damn it, Draco, this isn't the time for being a good guy. Just call me it now!

You better have somewhere to go with this.

I do.

Alright, but I don't mean it.

CALL ME IT.

Draco looked over at her, and saw the determination in her eyes. "You dirty little mud blood?" He quietly said to her, his eyes confused, and a little hurt.

"What did you call me Malfoy?" She yelled at him, telling him with her eyes to talk louder. She looked a little out of the corner of her eye and saw the Professor Snape was at full attention.

"I called you just what you are, Granger., a filthy little mud blood." He sneered, but his eyes still clearly wrote how much he didn't want to do this.

"You bastard!" He sprung from his chair and jumped on him, punching him in the stomach. Draco's breath escaped from his lips and he looked at her completely baffled. "Hit me back!" She hissed in his ear.

"No!" He hissed back. Her eyes became full of determination. She punched him again.

"YES."She whispered violently in his ear.He pushed her off of him, and pretended to hit her back. She fell back like he had, and it was all he could do from asking her if she was ok.

"Malfoy, Granger, ENOUGH! I am ashamed of you, both of you to Professor Dumbledore's room, and 50 points from Slytherin and Gryffindor." He was standing at his desk. They both got up and walked out the door.


"Damn it Hermione that hurt!" He complained rubbing his stomach gently as they walked to the Professor Dumbledore's room.

"Yah, well you aren't that great at fighting, Draco. You would think you would have more experience, considering you're in Slytherin." She teased. She ran her hand over her fist. "That hurt me too."

"What the hell was that all about?"

"I know why we've been getting those dreams. They aren't to forewarn us of something. They are to tell us to do something." She stopped him from walking trying to get her point across.

"Ok, and you figured out what it was?"

"Yes."

"What is it?" He asked, more than curious. She looked around, and saw the perfect opportunity.

"This." She pulled him in front of a window to a class room, where the students inside could see, and kissed him passionately, her hands on the back of his head pulling him into her. His body responded before he could think of what they were doing and kissed her back his hands running through her hair and then up and down her body. He moaned into her mouth and she ended the kiss. Then, she grabbed his hand and pulled him away from the window, smiling wickedly. As soon as they were out of view of the class, she turned back to him. "Do you think they saw that?"

"Who DIDN'T?" He asked her wiping his mouth against the back of his sleeve.

"Good."

"I still don't get it, besides embarrassing the shit out of me, what were you trying to do?"

"In the dream Evil says 'Until your kin can love openly you shall never defeat me.' Remember?" She asked him.

"Oh… yah! Wait, I get it now. So we have to just tell everyone at Hogwarts that we are in love, which by the way is something I've wanted to do, then we can defeat him!" She smiled.

"Yep." She kissed him again. "This should be fun." They walked toward Dumbledore's office together, hand in hand. "Merlin, Harry and Ron are going to kill me."
