Chapter Thirteen

Jaiden came up sputtering and spitting out water, just in time to see him enter the lake with something in his hand. Backing up she splashed water at him. Ron however didn't seem to notice the water hitting him as he lunged for her. Jaiden felt his body slam against her pushing her backwards submerging them both.

Ron swung the hand with the knife under the water. Jaiden screamed as she felt the knife inter her lower back. Standing up he grabbed her hair and held her under the water. Jaiden tried to get him off of her, but the pain in her back was excruciating, she felt him pull her up, gasping for air, she looked up into his face.

" Had enough yet? "

" Over my dead body, " he told him savagely.

" That shall be arranged, " He said, he then dunked her under again.

Jaiden thrashed her body around trying to break his hold on her, but it was no use. She couldn't hold up much longer.

" You know you could have prevented this, " He said as he pulled her up again.

" F-ck off, "

" Already did, " Ron said just as he was about to hold her under again, he flew sideways.

" Never mess with a Malfoy, " Draco said panting, " Jade are you alright? " He asked helping her up.

He was cut short as Ron growled and threw himself at Draco; Jaiden watched as the two boys fought, the sight was horrible. The wind blew just then, making her shiver, her back throbbed even more. Her shirt and pants were soaked in blood.

Draco threw a punch catching Ron in the jaw. Getting angrier by the second Ron swung the knife barely missing him.

" Slowing down? " Draco mocked.

" Not on your life, " Ron growled, lunging again, this time his aim was true, catching him in the side.

" That won't happen again, " Draco said, grabbing his side.

" Next time you'll be dead, " Ron said, punching him in the nose.

" You son-of-a-bit— " Draco started. As his nose began to bleed.

" Language Malfoy, "

" Whatever, " Draco said, grabbing the hand with the knife in it,

The two fought for a moment until Draco got the knife away from Ron. Backing up Draco panted for air, just as Ron was about to come. Draco threw it at him…

A shocked look fell on Ron's face, bringing his hand up he felt for the knife and found it in his neck. The next second he fell backwards… Dead.

Shaking and gasping for breath, Draco made his was over to Jaiden.

" Are you alright? " Jaiden asked.

" I'm fine, come on we've got to go to Dumbledore, " Draco assured her.

And together they went back up to the castle. Inside they walked to the stone gargoyle, and gave the password. Watching the gargoyle jump aside, they mounted the stairs and climbed up, and stopped at the large wooden door. Jaiden raised a hand and knocked loudly…

" Come in, " Came Dumbledore's voice from the other side of the door, permitting them to enter.

Bothe taking a deep breath Draco opened the door taking Jaiden's hand they entered the office.

Months had gone by and things were still going great, they had returned to normal, well as normal as you could get at Hogwarts anyway. In a few weeks they would be graduating from seven long years of magic.

" I can't believe you went through all of that, " Harry was saying.

" Yeah I know, " Jaiden agreed.

" And Ron, how could he betray us like that? " He asked.

" I don't know, " Jaiden sighed.

" So I guess you are on out side now huh? " Harry asked turning to Draoc.

" I guess so, " Draco responded.

" Well welcome to the group, " Harry said holding out his hand.

" Thanks, " He said taking his hand and shook it.

" Quite alright, now as soon as I get out of here we'll figure out something, "

Jaiden smiled things were finally going right.

And with Ron dead, Harry out of the Hospital Wing… Well almost out. Her and Draco were finally an official couple graduation coming up…

She thought things could get any better…

How very wrong she was…
