Her POV

I was shocked, my prince had kissed me. It was full of passion and so gentle at the same time. He wanted us to be together and he sealed it with a kiss. Looking into his stormy-grey eyes, I felt loved. I felt as if everything would be okay.

I don't know how I could feel like this. My best-friend was dead, another in hiding after losing his mind. I had succeeded, I had beaten the odds. So many others died during the war, yet I had survived and I didn't know why. I had not out smarted them, no body could.

Feeling warmth in my hand I looked down to see my princes in mine, "Mione, we'll be later for class, we must go" his beautiful voice told me before drawing me in for another hug.

Did he know what I was thinking? But how? Was it so visible on my face, or could he really see into my soul? Perhaps he just knew me better than I thought, but he understood. Maybe he had experienced trauma too.

Pulling away from his loving embrace, I walked to my room, with out looking back. I knew he would be there for me when I walked back out. He was my knight in shining armour; he will always be there for me.

His POV

What have I done? I am so stupid, to kiss her like that after I had earned her trust. I don't think she minded though, she hasn't walked away or slapped me. I looked down into her caramel-brown eyes and I felt like I owned the world. Forever I wanted to have her, to protect her, for her to never be alone.

She however seemed to disappear, like she had left her body. Her eyes filled with tears and I knew she was thinking about the war. I had seen what she saw, but I was in hiding, like a coward. I saw her horror as the weasel died and her despair as Scarhead lost his mind after the dark lord's death. I was there but no one could see me, particularly her, I felt her pain.

Wishing for her pain to stop, I reached down and took her small hand into my own. Blinking back her tears she looked down and stared at my hand as if she didn't believe it was real. Hearing the clock chime, I knew we would be late for class if we didn't move. I remembered her past nerdiness and love for education. It was better for her to be in class on time. "Mione, we'll be late for class, we must go" I told her regretfully as she looked deep into my eyes.

Hugging her closer before she left for her room, I knew that she would always be mine and that I would always be there for my princess. She would never be hurt when I am around, I shall protect her with my life as did her friends only months ago. From now on, she is my princess to love and protect.
