oOoOo-Draco's POV-oOoOo
Something wasn't right, something wasn't right at all. I looked into the mirror, nothing seemed wrong. So I'm fine, everything is fine, I don't feel anything at all, so it worked.
I walked into the bathroom and turned the water to the shower on. I got into the shower, I started washing my body, when I noticed it. I looked down and screamed. I screamed like I had never had to scream before.
I had a huge fucking hole in my chest. Where my heart should be, well it was GONE! I had no heart. I could actually stick my hand through the hole! I mean everything looked as though it was being held there just fine, but it was gone. I have no clue how the fuck I was living with my heart ripped out, but, I was!
I got out of the shower as fast as I could. I ran downstairs with my shirt off and stopped into front of my mother.
"Mum what the fuck is this!" I kind-of yelled at her. She looked up and gasped. Then a smile spread across her face.
"Well it looks like you didn't have to get rid of your feelings, when she had feelings for you, you just screwed yourself over, but it will come back after some things happen, can't tell you what though. You have to find out for yourself. I knew I should of told you to make sure that she didn't like you, or love which ever your going with," she said. I looked at her like she was nuts. Was she bloody fucking mad! How could she stand there in front of me and say that? Why the fuck didn't she tell me the night before. I mean it would have been better than to wake up and find your heart missing!
"What the bloody fuck! Mum how can you say that, why wouldn't you warn your own son?" I asked still looking at her like she was mad as a bloody dog with rabies.
"Don't talk to me like that Draco Andrew Malfoy!" She said in a very stern voice, one that made me think before I would say the next thing. (a/n: I had to make is initials funny D.A.M. lol).
"Draco, I thought you would have learned by now, you can't solve everything with magic. It was a lesson that made your father realize that as well, it's also what turned him so sour. Trust me, before you, and someone else, he was as happy as a new born puppy. He was just so care free, but then, a girl he fell in love with made him do some stupid things, and he ended up a bitter man," she said. It looked as though there was more she wanted to say, but she kept it to herslef. Which was good. I didn't want to know that my father had a good side once upon a time.
"What are you reading?" I asked, trying to get her over what she had just said so I could yell at her some more.
"Look," she said. I looked at the paper. On the front page was all of the remaining Death Eaters. Some had already been killed, and the ones that had taken the longest to get were the ones that they were killing.
Right there in the middle of them all was my father. He looked old, tired and sad. But then you see him turn his head and his expression changes completely. Anger floods through his face. A sneer comes across his face. He looks like he's going to kill, well if he could get out of the ropes and spells they had him in, maybe.
Finally in the corner of the picture you see a wizard walk onto the scene. It looked as though he was going to be the executioner. He turned around to face the people. I gasped. It was none other than Harry Potter. He was looking at the crowd with rage on his face as well. Then you see his face go completely blank. he looks at the men. Harry walks over to my father. They say some words back an forth. Then Harry's blank face changes again into rage and hate. It was actually a little scary. I had only heard about what his face looks like when he's fighting people that he hates. He doesn't take long to use the Unforgivable Curse on him.
Harry looked as though a big weight had just been lifted off of his shoulders. He looked calm and relaxed, which didn't surprise me, my father had caused him a great deal of pain.
I put the paper back down on the table. I looked at my mother. It looked as though she wanted to tell me something, but she didn't.
"Mum, how do I get rid of this?" I asked. She had said that things would have to happen for it to go back to normal, but she didn't say what.
"Draco, promise you'll never end up like them," she said looking at me. I could tell that tears wanted to come up, but when your pureblood and a Malfoy you learn not to cry.
"Like who?" I asked. Why did she say them.
"Like your father, and . . . . . . Harry," she said looking down at the paper again.
"I'll never be like the half-blood mum. You know that. With father, don't worry about that. Besides, Harry is just another muggle loving bastard. He'll never be anything more than that, I mean, look at him. He's still feeling sorry for himself after so many people have died. I'm surprised he hasn't done a spell to get rid of his pain. I'm surprised that he isn't dead," I said. I really meant that too. I would have thought that Harry would have killed himself by now.
"Don't say such things about him. he has a lot of crap on his plate right now. If only knew what your father, Dumbledore, and I know, then you'd think twice before even talking like that," she said getting up and walking to another part of the house.
That was weird, what the hell was she talking about? I went back into my room and looked at the potion thingy again. I grabbed a book that mum had given to me a long time ago. I looked through it, sure enough in the book was the potion she had given to me last night. I read through how to make it, then when I got past that there was a little side night.
' If used to cure love, beware. If you don't know how this person really feels for you, or if they don't even know you don't take it. The following might happen: Loss of a heart. hair turns a white, or blonde color, if you already have blond hair it will go extremely white, loss of certain memories, loss of feeling, loss of a voice, loss of hair, loss of your gender( you may switch from a girl to a boy or vise visa. Or you may switch bodies with the person you thought about.
If used to cure loss of hair . . . . '
Well know wonder father had blonde hair. God there was so many side-effects that it was ungodly. I had to go to Granger to find out if she could help. I mean, I'm sure she could come up with something instead of me doing gods knows what to get my heart back.
oOoOo-Back at School-oOoOo
When I got to school, I went to find Hermione. I knew she was either going to be with Blaise in our room, or she was going to be in the library.
When I got to our room I her sitting in front of the fire. She was staring into it. She didn't look well, it looked as though she hadn't eaten in a few days. I knew that could be bad, cause well, she could dry up and go into a sleep until being fed, or because she was still alive, she could just plain end up dead. She had black streaks down her face as if she had been crying. I could tell she wasn't to happy, but what could change her so. I mean at the beginning of the year she was so cold and heartless, in some sense, but now she had almost completely gone back to the old Hermione, with attitude still.
She looked into the fire as if it held all the answer. she looked like me those longs nights when I 'd get up and stare into the fire trying to figure out what would happen if I told her, if I did certain things, and what not.
I was just going to go and ask you know if she could snap out of it so I could get my heart back, but something was keeping me from being rude. I just watched her. It seemed like forever before she even blink.
I slowly walked over to her. I just stood behind her. I didn't want to do anything that would upset her even more. I mean, the streaks were enough to put a little kindness into my heart.
"What do you want?" She ask slowly raising her eyes to meet mine. I opened my mouth in response, but nothing came out. I wanted to say, you know, help me get my FUCKING HEART BACK! but I didn't say anything. I wanted to know why she was so sad, but then again, I didn't.
"Why haven't you eaten?" I asked. It was just the first thing that came out. I mean, it's just one of those things. You don't know what to say, so something just pops out.
"Because I've been overwhelmed with all of this shit that happened the other night. I have a feeling it's all because of you. Before I blacked out, I saw your face. Then all of these emotions came out of no where. I don't know what's going on, but I need to know if you did anything to make me feel this way," she said not taking her eyes off of me.
"Well, yes. I was . . . doing something and I guess it back fired," I said. Well it did backfire, it backfired on me. I mean, my heart isn't suppose to be missing from my body.
"I came back to see if you could help me. I have a small problem," I said looking at her with a blank expression. I mean come on, it's not like I'm going to stand there and tell her that I did this to get rid of feelings for her. I mean, I'm not that stupid. I may be stupid enough to listen to my mom and take a potion before even looking it up.
"You need help, look at me," she said. It looked as though she wanted to smile a bit, but she didn't.
"You want to know what I need help on?" I asked I took off my robes. She watched. I buttoned my shirt, I slowly, oh so slowly, took it off. She finally got up and came around to the side of the couch I was on. She stood in front of me. Her eyes got wide as my shirt fell to the floor below me.
She watched me as I breathed, she watched as I lived with a hole in my heart.
"How did that happen?" She asked me. I guess she finally realized mine was a bit more problematic.
"I took a potion. I didn't look to see the outcome of it if I was wrong about something, I was, so now I need your help to find, and restore my heart to it's proper place. In my body," I said looking at her with a stern look.
I need her help, hopefully she will give it to me, if not. I'll be heartless forever.
oOoOo-Hermione's POV-oOoOo
I looked at him. I couldn't help but look at his face, and his hole. I didn't know what potion he took that would leave that behind, but it must have been something powerful.
My heart was full of emotion. I wanted to cry some more. I seemed to be in love with Blaise and Draco. The love I felt for Draco was extremely strong, yet the love for Blaise wasn't too far behind.
Oh Merlin what was I going to do? Torn between two guys. This wasn't going to go to well.
"Well, Draco, I guess I could look some things up to see if there is anyway for our heart to come back to its proper place, but I guess the first thing we need to do before we even think about doing anything else, is to find it first," I said. I mean, come on, you can't put a heart back if you don't even have the heart.
"Ok, so where do you think it could have gone?" He asked.
"Well, what was the potion suppose to do?" I asked. Now that I was thinking about other stuff, all of my emotions seemed to go out the window.
He looked at me with shock, a look of oh shit what did I get myself into, and then a blank stare.
"Well, it was suppose to switch some things and I guess it did," he said. I guess he just had to shorten what the whole thing was about. I guess it was best not to do anything. I know that it had to do with me, cause he basically said that he did something that caused me to have these emotions.
"Well, where could it have gone?" I asked out loud. I mean it wasn't to him or anything, but just to . . . I dunno. Then it hit me. I knew where to look to help find his heart.
I ran to my room and grabbed a big thick book. I had had this since ever. I had received it as a gift, though I never found out who it was. I opened the book and looked through it.
"Here it is. It is a simple spell to say that will help us find anything that is lost," I said proud of myself. I mentally smacked myself. I was acting like the Old Hermione again. Oh hell it didn't matter. I could have any personality that I wanted. If I wanted to be goofy, I was going to be goofy. If I wanted to go back to my partying self, I would.
"Great so what do we do?" He asked looking over my shoulder. I hid it. Well it said to recite the words at the bottom, and a trail of neon pink would appear until you find the item. When you got the item, if it was in something, then you'd see through it and it and whatever else in by it would be illuminated.
Ok, well I'll say it, and you just follow the trail," I said. He nodded and went to the door.
I uttered the words and all of a sudden this neon light went up around me. It was really bright. Draco looked over at me and his mouth fell.
"What?" I asked. It wasn't like I could really see. The next thing I knew I was being drug into the bathroom.
"Look into the mirror," he said. I looked into the mirror.
I could see through my chest. Inside was my heart beating, and beside it was another heart, it was bigger and it was actually like pumping blood into my system. I mean it wasn't just sitting there, it was actually do the same thing that my heart was doing, except they weren't beating the exact same time.
"Oh my bloody god," I said in a low voice. How the hell we're we suppose to get his heart out of my body and still work in his, merlin knows how his heart will react if we put it back into his body, who knows if we can even put it back! This wasn't going well what so ever.
We need to go to Dumbledore to see if he can help us at all," I said. We would have to go to dinner, sit there and then go to Dumbledore. I wasn't in to much of a rush to have him look at us and laugh.
The light went away and we went to supper. We sat down and watched Dumbledore for the longest time. Finally dinner was almost over when he got up and said it was time to announce who had gotten the part of Romeo, and who had gotten the part of Juliet.
"I know all of you have been waiting all weekend to hear who got the parts. We are sorry that we didn't tell you before you left, we had some interesting things come up. Anyway without further ado, Romeo will be played by Slytherin's very own . . . . Mr. Draco Malfoy. The role of Juliet will be played by Gryffindor's very own . . . . Miss. Hermione Granger. Other roles include . . ." I couldn't believe my ears. I had been dared by Ginny to put my name in, and I ended up getting the part. This was not good. I looked over at Draco. His eyes were wide but then in a flash they went to a blank expression. Both houses just looked at each other. I mean, come on, who would have thought that we were going to get it. Dumbledore didn't really seem to care, he had gone weird this year.
But now we were going to have to go through all of the stuff for this play, this was not going to be good.
oOoOoOoOoOo
a/n: well there ya go, yeah not as good as I would have liked but I was trying to make this chapter tie in with what is to come. Some unexcepted things will happen during this play. Oh and I'm going to have so much fun with this next few chapters, and plus with the whole heart thing, it would be kind-of gross, but just think, she could run alot longer, cause more blood is being pumped through her body, but somethings wouldn't be right, thats why she looks all gross and stuff, she is going to have to drink a lot of blood. anyway g2g see ya.
