'He wants me to find someone new then I will, I'll stay out of his life for good' Hermione growled as she clenched her hands tighter together. She stomped her feet and walked off and down through the corridor. Hermione made her way to the Gryffindor common room where she entered angrily and the only one awake was Harry. He awoke from his slumber as he heard the common room door shut, he smiled as he saw Hermione's beautiful form enter. He was happy to see her that was until he saw how angry she looked. He stood up from where he was slumping and walked over to her.

"Hermione what's wrong?" Harry comforted her.

"None of your concern," Hermione snapped.

"Hermione I'm tired of your shit I have done nothing but been here for you and you treat me like dirt if you don't want me to care about you anymore then maybe we shouldn't be friends," Harry extorted.

"Harry please don't do this I'm just upset," Hermione's eyes now began to water.

"Then let me help," Harry stepped closer to her. Then Hermione through herself upon Harry she wrapped her arms around his neck and cried on his shoulder.

"Draco is so confusing first he wants to be with me now he doesn't I can't take it Harry," Hermione pouted as her wet tears drenched Harry's red shirt.

"Hermione he's crazy if he doesn't want to be with you but let me tell you one thing."

"What?"

"I think he'll come around, if someone takes the killing curse for someone else then they must have some feelings for them don't you agree?" Harry questioned trying to make a point. Hermione nodded her head and sighed.

"Yeah well then why doesn't he want to be with me?

"Maybe he's confused, I mean he is Draco Malfoy," Harry rolled his eyes in disgust towards Draco then smiled. Hermione smiled also gently hitting Harry's arm then took in a deep breath.

"I think I should just forget about Draco Malfoy and lean towards my other options," Hermione nodded with a smile.

"Oh and what are those options?" Harry laughed.

"You," Hermione gulped as she saw Harry's smile disperse, and his face was of pure shock.

"Hermione no I can't," Harry shook his head "no" as he backed away some.

"Harry you've had a crush on me for the longest time and you don't want me the one time you can have me?" Hermione's eyes widened as she also went into shock, she couldn't believe it, she had been turned down two times today.

"Hermione of course I want you, it's just I see the way you and Malfoy look at each other I don't want to come between that things will work out between you two and then where will I be? Stuck in the middle," Harry shrugged as he shuffled his feet some.

"Harry Draco and I won't get back together I assure you of this," Hermione whispered lightly as she eyed his lips. Harry took in a deep breath and closed his eyes as their heads drew closer and their lips gently touched. Hermione moved her hands to his head and began to run her fingers through his hair. Harry's hands meanwhile made their way around her waist as their passionate kiss continued. Hermione then pulled away and smiled towards Harry. "How did that feel?"

"That was great, but we can't do it again," Harry sighed some as he pulled away and went to walk up the boys dormitory stairs.

"But…but why? You liked it right?"

"Yes I loved it but I could tell I'm not the one you wanted to kiss," Harry said as he gave Hermione a half smile and walked up the stairs and out of sight. Hermione was left there to think to herself she knew Harry was right, the one who she wanted to be kissing was Draco. Even if Draco didn't want her anymore she couldn't hide her true feelings for him.

'Come on Hermione this kind of thing never stopped you before get a hold of yourself. You even chased him into the shower when he didn't even know your feelings existed. Don't give up now'

'But he could be just using me for a good shag' Hermione argued back and fourth with herself inside her head.

Then she realized she was determined to find out what Draco's real reason for leaving was, so she headed out of the common room and wandered down the halls.

'Why would Draco say we made it through so many obstacles then quickly change his mind something must be wrong' Hermione's thoughts rambled on.

That's when she came upon the Slytherin common room, she waited outside the door and then reached inside her robe.

"I'm so glad I snuck off with Harry's invisibility cloak," Hermione smirked as she put it overtop of herself and her entire body disappeared, not really just invisible to the known eye. She sat on the ground and cuddled against the wall and waited for the door to be opened. Her eyes dropped as she waited and they got heavier and heavier as the nightly minutes passed away. Seconds turned to minutes and minutes turned to hours. She eventually woke up the next day to the Slytherin entrance being opened by Crabbe and Goyle who seemed to be yelled at by someone. Hermione quickly slipped by them and sauntered in as the door shut behind her. She stepped into the common room of Slytherin and noticed it was not at all like the Gryffindor common room, it was dark a lot of things were green and the furniture was nicer. She sat on the couch still with the invisible cloak on her and watched as Draco exited from the boy's dormitory and wandered down the stairs, he took a seat in front of the fire and let out a sigh. Then he did something she thought that he would never do, he began singing.

It's not what I took from you
It's not what I sold
We are born like this
Like this

The time has come to change this
To stretch the thought a mile
We've lost that kind of spirit

We want it back today
The time is right to change this
To make the life we know
They took what we were given
We?ll get it back again

Somewhere someone's gun, someone's gun is laughing
It's not what I gave to you
It's now what I sold
We are born like this
(Like this)
It's not what I took from you
It's not what I stole
We are born like this

You try your best to mock me
You?re always in my way
You've lost what you've been given
You?ll get it back today

The time is right to change this
To make the life we know
They took what we were given
We want it back again

Somewhere someone's gun, someone's gun is laughing
It's not what I gave to you
It's now what I sold
We are born like this
It's not what I took from you
It's not what I stole
We are born like this

Somewhere you?re floating high
You?re not living
We are

Somewhere someone's gun, someone's gun is laughing, laughing
It's not what I gave to you
It's now what I sold
We are born like this

It's not what I gave to you

Draco got done singing and let out a big sigh as he took a seat on the couch across from her, not only sitting on it but laying down on it. When Draco sung it brought tears to her eyes, she felt like she could listen to his singing for hours and hours at a time. Not only did she not want him to sing but also his countenance after he was done singing killed her. Salty wet tears dripped down his face as he started up towards the ceiling with blood shot eyes. When Hermione made up her mind to reveal herself, reveal that she was there but invisible the common room door came slamming open causing Hermione to fall onto the floor, but she backed up into a corner to get out of anyone who would destine towards her invisible self. Draco swiftly stood up not only hearing the door come open but hearing something make a clank against the ground. He quickly wiped away the wet tears that still clung to his face. The two who had entered the common room where none other than Crabbe and Goyle, they made their way over to Draco with snide sneers spread across their faces.

"Crabbe Goyle did I or did I not say I wished to be left alone!" Draco snapped as the two smirked towards each other.

"Draco we made a decision," Crabbe started.

"Well that's a first, what was it? To wear underwear?" Draco grinned, but he seemed to be the only one who found it funny. Well except Hermione who was trying to keep from laughing from underneath the invisibility cloak.

"We don't need you anymore Draco."

"What is a leader without his two goons, nothing," Crabbe continued from Goyles statement.

"So you are leaving me?" Draco questioned as he lifted one of his eyebrows upward.

"Yeah, and not only that you're going to get what's coming to you," Goyle smirked as he slammed his fist into Draco's gut causing him to fall back onto the couch. Draco pulled out his wand instantaneously but was too fast as Crabbe had already had his wand out.

"Expelliarmus!" Crabbe yelled as Draco's wand flew from his hand. Draco looked form his wand, which was now inside the fireplace, to Crabbe who was smirking viscously at him. Crabbe's wand lifted as he shouted the words, " Mobilicorpus!" He lifted his wand in the air as Draco flew up following the motions of the wand. Then Crabbe drew back his wand and flung his arm forward Draco slammed into the wall over and over again as Crabbe continued this.

"Petrificus totalis," someone whispered as Crabbe's arms and legs clung together and he fell backwards.

"Who's there?" Goyle called out as he pointed his wand around the room, and Draco lay unconscious by the wall.

"Your worst nightmare," A voice screamed as a jolt of magic blasted Goyle back against the wall. He stood up, not knowing what happened and looked around and still saw nothing. "Now go away and leave Draco Malfoy alone or you'll get what's coming to you again!" The voice yelled again. Goyle quickly stood up and ran out of the common room screaming.

Draco soon opened his eyes as he looked at his surroundings and saw that he was in the hospital wing.

"Ugh…they didn't kill me, me and my luck," Draco sighed as he fell back into another peaceful slumber.
