Once again I must thank my wonderful beta misses-charlie-weasly...AWESOME! hehe…also thanking Sushifish for getting me motivated...i was getting way too lazy, so I wrote it during Legal Studies today…hope your happy!

Her POV

Did he say that? Did my prince really say that? He must of, he's standing up, he really saved me! He really is my prince in shining armour! Oh I love him so!

"Come on Mione!" he said, as he pulled my up off my chair, "We're going to see Dumbledore!". He intertwined his hand with my own and gently led me out of the classroom, all while Professor Lovejoy watched us with her beady black eyes.

As we walked down the corridors, I felt myself retreating to my thoughts. I was confused, I felt wonderful because my prince had saved me, but terrible because I had run out of class. I had only done it once before, to that crazy old fraud, and that didn't end in dire circumstance like I feared this would. I felt like my head was going to explode with all of these emotions, it was a feeling that I didn't like.

I think we were justified though; she's planning on teaching us illegal magic. We are too young to learn that! Plus, I feared for my life, I was scared and I'm sure that Dumbledore will understand. He knows what happened in my second year.

We stopped walking and Draco wrapped his arm around my trembling body, drawing me into his warm, calm body, "We're here Mione, it'll be okay!"

I hope that my prince is right. I hope it will be okay. I love him, I trust him, I believe him.

His POV

As we left the classroom, I saw my princesses eyes cloud over. I could tell she was thinking, stressing about leaving class. It was one of those few things that I felt I didn't understand about her yet, she worried way too much.

It felt as if we walked those silent corridors for hours until we reached the Gargoyle guarding Dumbledore's office. What was the password? Maybe Hermione knows it, should I interrupt her? I have to anyway I suppose, we'll be talking to Dumbledore.

"We're here Mione, it'll be okay!" I whispered to her as I wrapped my arm comfortably around her waist. I could feel her trembling, and could hear it in her voice as she spoke to the Gargoyle, "Freddo Frogs!" I was scared for her, I know that it is strange, but seeing her tremble in fear really worried me. What had happened to the super-strong, Hermione that I had seen for years hanging with the Golden Trio? Had the war affected my princess that much?

As the door slid open, a staircase appeared and I gently led my princess up the stairs, trying my best not to be pushy. Eventually we neared the top and the door swung open inviting us in, "Miss Granger! Mr Malfoy! So wonderful to see you again!"

I hope that he can stop this teacher, to make my princess better. I never want her to feel scared again. She is mine, and I will always protect what is mine.
