So here we are, at the end.

I want you to tell me what you think, okay?

I'm really going to miss writing this fic. I've gotten attached to the charactors, as though they were mine, and I am, I really am going to miss them.

So... here it goes.

Harry didn't think that he could or would ever be happier than he was at that moment. Dancing with the man he loved beneath the moonlight. And then, somehow, it got better. Hermione and Ron, holding hands, joined them and began to dance as well. Harry smiled, locking hands with Hermione, and put his head into Draco's shoulder, nuzzling. He didn't have to choose between the two anymore. Then Ron twirled Hermione around and into Draco's arms, and took Harry's hand. Harry laughed as Ron tried and failed to dip him, and the boys ended up squishing each other. Draco snorted at Ron's clumsiness, and expertly twirled Hermione around, ending with a proper dip. She giggled, then went to Harry, pulling him up and slow dancing with him. Ron and Draco danced awkwardly for a few minutes, both blushing and doing a sort of weird tango thing. Finally, Harry ran back to Draco and kissed him full on the lips, Ron and Hermione holding hands and watching on.

She squeezed his hand. "That's what love is, right?" Ron smiled at her, stroking her cheek and making her blush. "The exact definition, 'mione." They kissed, and both couples swayed on the spot, wanting to make the moment last forever. Draco swiftly turned, which Harry found a bit odd. When they finally parted, Draco gasped and fell to his knees. "C'mon Draco, it wasn't that good." Harry laughed, dropping to be beside him. He heard the slight crack of a gunshot in the distance. "Draco? Draco!" He yelled urgently, pushing him onto his back. "Shit!" Blood seeped from Draco's chest, and he looked up at Harry with pleading eyes. "Sorry, Harry." He moaned, closing his eyes.

Ron swore. "Fuck! Who did this? I'm going to- fuck!" He spun around, and the sight that he saw frightened him to no end. Lucuis Malfoy was holding a smoking gun, grinning sickly at him. "Hello, children." He said quietly.

Things got a bit hazy after that. Harry dimly remembered, even years later, Hermione screaming, and the sound of Ron's body dropping to the ground. And laughing. He heard laughing coming out of Lucuis's cruel mouth. But he did not hear himself crying, or his voice whispering Draco's name on repeat. And then there was silence, nothing. Nothing. White noise, nothing.

And when he woke, Hermione was sitting beside him and crying, holding his hand. It took effort to move his mouth, but he did, and he croaked: "Where?" She sniffled. "Hos-hospital. You and Ron, and- and Draco!" A fresh bout of sobs exploded from her, and she shook. Harry sat straight up. "Draco? Hermione, what happened to Draco?" She didn't answer, crying instead. "WHERE IS HE?" He screamed, shaking her. "He... he's recovering from his operation." She sobbed. "Will he be okay?" Harry asked urgently. She started to scream. "I don't know! They won't tell me anything, and I'm scared, I'm so scared!" She burst into tears again. Harry hugged her tight as he could, rocking her back and forth. "Where's Ron?" He asked.

"Beside you." She sniffled. "He got hit with a nasty curse, but he should be okay." Harry turned his head to look at him. His face was unusually pale and his eyes were closed, but he looked okay. Harry rubbed his head. It ached. "And- me? Do I still have legs?" Hermione laughed shakily. "Yeah. You got hit with a stunning curse by Lucuis, and you passed out from the stress, but you're okay."

A doctor came into the room. "Hello, Mr Potter." He smiled. "How are you feeling?" He set down his clipboard and sat beside him. Harry shook his head. "Fine, but how's Draco?" The doctor frowned slightly. "He's fallen into a light coma. I'd let you see him, but you're obviously in no condition to." Harry grabbed the doctor's collar and pulled him up to look into his face. "YOU ARE TALKING TO HARRY POTTER HERE." He sneered. "I have defeated Voldemort twice, once when I was a baby, and I have survived and eluded him fourteen years. So you can just let me see my fucking boyfriend for twenty minutes!" The doctor shrugged, sweating slightly. "Alright, Mr. Potter. If you think you can walk, he's in the room next to us. But don't exert yourse-"

Harry was already out of his bed and at the door. "Thanks." He muttered. He raced to the next room, and spotted Draco in the bed, eyes closed. Even in sleep, he was so beautiful. Harry couldn't resist kissing him softly on those beautiful lips before he sat down. His eyelids fluttered, the action bringing tears to Harry's eyes. He took his hand. "Um, should I talk?" He asked, and when he didn't get an answer, he assumed it to be a yes. "Okay." He said quietly. "First of all, I'm sorry. I'm the one that made your father do this to you, and I'm pretty sure he intended to shoot me tonight. I think you stepped in front of the gun for me." He took a deep breath. "And it breaks my heart to have someone care about me so much. It makes me feel so amazing that you chose me, chose to love me."

He sighed. "And I love you too. I want you to wake up very much. So that I can kiss you again. Wake up, Draco. Because I want to talk about our life together, I want to remember it with you. When I first took your hand, when you first said that you cared about me. Snowball fights," He smiled at the memory. "You taking care of me. You being there for me, and kissing me and making it better. And-" He knuckled his eyes to stop the tears from falling, but couldn't help the sob that fell. "And it aches, it hurts in my heart every moment that I know that I've done this to you. And I'm so sorry. So, please. Wake up, because I want to make new memories together. I want to see Ron and Hermione get married and have kids, I want to be an Auror, I want to go to my parent's grave. And I want you to be beside me every single step of the way, Draco!"

He burst into tears, burying his head into Draco's chest. "I want to marry you!" He whispered. "I want you to be my husband someday, because I want to be with you the rest of my life and I've never felt like this before! Like one person could do something so strange and incredible to me! So wake up..."

"Because I love you."

I am walking through the empty halls of Hogwarts. The stone hallways should be cold, but somehow even though I am naked, they are not. I come to the bridge that crosses between the buildings, and I stand in the middle. "Draco..." I hear a voice at the opposite end. It is nothing but black and emptiness, and I feel as though I should go towards it. I dimly hear words, but I don't want to feel them.

Memories together

You beside me

I want.. I want

Strange and incredible

I am almost at the blackness and I don't want to turn around but somehow I hear the words and they pierce me.

I love you

And something way at the back of my mind goes iloveyoutoo and i am rushing, rushing out out out into the sky and Harryharryharry please please wake me up

Draco blearily opened his eyes, and felt Harry's tears soaking the front of his shirt. "Harry..." He croaked, stroking his hair. Harry looked up, eyes full of wetness. "Draco!" He shouted, and he winced. "Sorry." He whispered. "I was. I was just really really scared you wouldn't wake up." Draco smiled. "Why'd you even doubt me? Why would I die when I have heaven right here?" He leaned his head up, lips begging. Harry kissed him, tear tracks etching both boys faces.

When they parted, Harry grinned, and rested his head on Draco's shoulder. "So, did you take that bullet for me?" Draco looked out the window. A brand new day was beginning, and the sun was rising. It painted the sky with red, pink, and orange. Draco knew that the new day might bring sadness, and anger, but it could also bring love, and peace. And new hopes, and chances, and laughter.

Someday, he would die. But until that day, he would savor every single moment.

And that day was not today.

Draco stroked Harry's head, smiling at a weak looking Ron and a teary Hermione in the doorway.

"I'll never tell."

The End.

Please review my story! There will be two more chapters, bonus ones! And I might do a sequel if enough people ask. I have given up on the contest though : )

It's really sorta over? *sniffle*
