'Crap, oh crap oh crap!' Draco kept whispering. He took the letter from Hermione's hand.
- flashback -
He heard a faint scream in Hermione's room and ran straight to it. Hermione obviously forgot to spell the door and Draco went in and found her lying in a pool of blood.
He got the shock of his life seeing his beloved in that state. 'Aaaargh! HERMIONE!'
He held himself back. Trying as hard to keep the tears from flowing. 'NO! This is all my fault! I'm sorry Hermione! I'm sorry!'
'Professor Dumbledore! Professor! Its Hermione. She's in the common room! She's bleeding really badly!'
'Don't panic, Mr. Malfoy. Carry her to the hospital wing at once.'
'Yes, professor.'
He darted off straight away to the hospital wing. Oh no, he thought. Its medical check up day for first, second and third years. He stood dumbfounded at the door. Tear tracks were appearing on his face.
'Madam Promfrey! Do you have an empty space? Hermione's hurt!'
'Oh deary me! This way Mr. Malfoy!'
- end of flashback –
He was sitting alone in the hospital wing, next to Hermione's bed. He has been sitting there for a full eight hours. All he could do was cry. He cried when he slept. Not that he was able to sleep. Only a short nap. The most a ten minutes.
He kept thinking about Hermione and he kept blaming himself for all this. Madam Promfrey had told him that only a miracle could keep Hermione alive. She had damaged her vein and almost cut it.
He read the note silently to himself.
Dear Whoever Who is Reading this,
If you're not Draco Lucius Malfoy, please past this to him. If you are, then keep reading.
Draco,
I did this for one reason. I wouldn't have to suffer any longer. Seeing you with different people makes me go insane. And here, on my last year at Hogwarts and in my Head's room, I have at last made a decision to kill myself. It would put the pain away. It wouldn't effect anything anymore. There's nothing else you see about me. There's nothing else you can do about it.
Love,
Hermione Ann Granger
Hermione had left a silver bracelet. One with Hermione's name carved into it and Draco's on the opposite side.

Draco's POV
I slowly crept into the Gryffindor's common room. Hermione's birthday was tomorrow and I wanted to leave her a present. I was deeply in love but I knew she wouldn't accept it. I left the package on the common room couch. Jenna Storm, a Gryffindor friend, had agreed to spy for me.

Hermione's POV
This morning, I woke up. As I went down, Harry and Ron had organized something for me. A piece of cake was placed on the coffee table while all the presents were stacked beside it.
We ate the
strawberry ice cream cake. I started ripping the presents apart.
Finally, after so many presents. One caught my eye.
It was wrapped in a green wrapping paper and a Slytherin green ribbon was tied around it. 'It has to be Draco's!' I thought. But I thought again. 'No way. He can never accept me.'
I opened it and saw a green velvet box. 'Open it Hermione!' I heard someone say. And I did. Inside was a silver bracelet. Malfoy's were the only people who could afford silver. But as I know. That's never going to happen. The silver bracelet had 'Hermione Ann Granger' on it. Two hearts were engraved beside my name.
I kept it and cherished it. I ran up to my room, and engraved 'Draco Lucius Malfoy' on the opposite side.

More tears fell down Draco's cheek.
'M-m-m-m-a-a-lfoy?' Ron's voice echoed.
Draco immediately stood up at Ron's presence. 'What, Weasel?'
'W-w-w-hat h-h-h-appened to H-h-h-ermione?' Ron said looking up at Draco's tear stained face.
'…'
'H-h-h-harry'
'Oh god! What happened?'
'Malfoy! YOU did this!' Ron said. This time no stirring up his words or stammering.
'Ron! Don't jump to conclusions. I know for sure, Draco wouldn't have done this.'
'And why is that, Harry?'
'C'mere, Ron' Harry said leaning forward to Ron's ear to whisper something.
'Look at his face. Look at his eyes. His cheeks. If he had done this. He wouldn't be crying'
Ron looked up and saw Draco's puffy red eyes and wet cheeks. 'That's odd.' he thought. 'Malfoy? You.. you..' Ron said and started bursting into soft chuckles and quite ones 'You cried!'
'Shut up you Weasel.'
'D-d-d-d-raco?' Hermione's weak voice spoke up.
'Hermione! Oh god! Thank god! You're alive! Thank the God and Goddess!'
'What do you mean I'm alive?' Hermione said frowning.
'You are so lucky you didn't die! I would've have commited suicide if you did!'
'My vein. It got cut didn't it? How can I live?'
'What do you remember?'
Hermione believed what she saw. Draco was enjoying it. She dashed up to her room and never looked back. She sat on her bed like a lost child in a mansion. She couldn't do anything.
Its time. I have always wanted to do this all my life. The torture in my life will end. Goodbye world. Goodbye life. Goodbye friends. Goodbye love.
She wrote a letter and put it beside her.
She grabbed her blade an slashed a cut in her left arm. She cut it furiously. She suddenly felt dizzy and she blacked out. I'm dead. I love you Draco Malfoy.
She remembered hearing somebody letting out a shriek. Somebody muttering, 'Oh crap' more then ten times. She remembered somebody saying, 'This is all my fault' a zillion times, blaming himself/herself
'Not much.'
'You let out a scream. I went over. Found you in a pool of dark red blood and rushed you to Madam Promfrey. I never thought you could scream so loudly. And besides that, your vein didn't pop. It just got damaged.'
'Don't you ever understand? I'm jealous of you! I really am. I love you, Granger! Can you please accept me that way? I've never felt this way to ANYONE before. Not even Bree. I love you more than every other thing in my life. Why can't you love me back?'
Hermione looked at him quizzically. Draco sighed. 'I don't think I can persuade you.'
Hermione still looked at him.
'Here, Hermione, I think this is yours.' he said and handed her the silver bracelet.
'Thank you'
'If you knew who was it from in the first place, you wouldn't have kept it for these three years'
'Who?'
'The name you carved on the bracelet, is the person who gave you the bracelet.' Draco said with a smirk. He walked down the hall, feeling rather embarassed.
'Draco! Wait!'
Draco stopped dead in his tracks and turned around. Hermione was smiling at him.
'I love you, Draco Malfoy'
Draco walked up to Hermione once again, pecked her on the lips and replied, 'I love you, too, baby. I love you, too'
