Love?

----------
"Did you find her?" - Ginny
"She was lying unconscious in the forbidden forest. For whatever the reason Lucius wanted us
to find her." - Harry
"Is she..?" - Ginny
"She's okay. A couple of bruises here and there but other than that she's fine." - Harry
----------
"How is she?" - Draco
"Still unconscious." - Harry
"Can I see her?" - Draco
"Over my dead body." - Harry
"What...?" - Draco
"I mean it Malfoy. If you care at all for her then just leave her the hell alone."
----------
"What's going on?" - Hermione
"Hey you're awake." - Harry
"Is Draco alright?" - Hermione
"He's fine." - Harry
"Where is he?" - Hermione
"Not here." - Harry
----------
"Hey Mione how are you?" - Ron
"I'm fine, more worried about Harry actually." - Hermione
"I've tried talking to him but it's pointless. He thinks this is all his fault." - Ron
"How does he figure that?" - Hermione
"Well the second he takes his eyes off you to spend some time with Ginny, this happens. He told me to keep an eye on you but..." - Ron
"I'm a big girl Ron I don't need you or Harry fussing over me constantly." - Hermione
"Maybe you should tell that to Harry." - Ron
"Maybe you could." - Hermione
----------
"I heard they found her. Is she okay?" - Blaise
"As far as I can tell." - Draco
"You mean you haven't been to see her?" - Blaise
"And risk Lucius going after again, I don't think so. Not to mention the fact I've got Potter
on my back about the whole thing." - Draco
"But surely you could..." - Blaise
"Look, just drop it okay." - Draco
----------
"Hey how are you feeling?"
"I'm okay." - Hermione
"You don't look very well." - Ginny
"I guess..." - Hermione
"What's wrong?" - Ginny
"I'm worried about Draco. He hasn't been in to see me yet...I just hope he's okay." - Hermione
"I'm sure he's fine." - Ginny
----------
"Can I have a word?" - Ron
"Sure what's up?" - Harry
"You know you don't have to watch her round the clock." - Ron
"And look what happened last time when I wasn't there." - Harry
"That was different, Lucius isn't going to try anything now that Dumbleodre's involved." - Ron
"Maybe it's not Lucius i'm worried about." - Harry
----------
"Is she okay?" - Draco
"Why don't you go see for yourself?" - Ginny
"Because your boyfriend won't let me anywhere near the place." - Draco
"If you really wanted to see her you wouldn't let Harry stop you." - Ginny
"Just forget it." - Draco
----------
"You can't keep Malfoy away forever." - Ron
"I've done a pretty good job so far." - Harry
"Maybe that's because he hasn't even tried to get past you." - Ron
"So what, you don't think I could take him?" - Harry
"You know that's not what I meant."- Ron
"Then what did you mean?" - Harry
"Harry this is ridiculous..." - Ron
"No, what's ridiculous is the fact that no one else seems to be able to see that them being together is putting her life in danger." - Harry
----------
"He's not coming is he?" - Hermione
"Maybe he just needs a little time." - Ginny
"Or maybe he's decided to just give up." - Hermione
"He wouldn't, not now he has Dumbledore on his side." - Ginny
"I just wish he'd come and talk to me." - Hermione
----------
"Watch it." - Draco
"Where are you off to in such a hurry?" - Ron
"None of your business." - Draco
"Well if you're going to see Hermione you needn't bother. He's not going to let you in." - Ron
"I wasn't going down there anyway." - Draco
"You weren't going down there were you? Whatever you're afraid of Malfoy I suggest you stop running from it." - Ron
----------
"You don't look so good." - Harry
"Thanks." - Hermione
"I mean it Mione, are you okay?" - Harry
"I'm fine. Why wouldn't I be? I mean I only have to choose between the guy I love and my life, but you know what it doesn't really matter because it looks like the decisions already been made for me" - Hermione
"You love him?" - Harry
"More than I thought possible." - Hermione
----------
"She's asking about you." - Ginny
"Just leave me alone Weasley." -Draco
"Don't act like you don't care, she needs you." - Ginny
"Well maybe she's better off without me." - Draco
"If that's really what you think, then maybe she is." - Ginny
----------
"So when are they letting you out of here?" - Ron
"As soon as everything's completely healed. Should be a couple more days at least." - Hermione
"You don't seem too worried about that considering you've been locked up in here for the last week." - Ron
"There's a lot less to worry about in here than out there." - Hermione
----------
"What's going on Malfoy?" - Harry
"What are you talking about?" - Draco
"You haven't even tried to go see her." - Harry
"That's because you pointed out the threat to her life if I did." - Draco
"Since when do you take notice of threats?" - Harry
"Since they started to involve someone I care about." - Draco
----------
"How's she doing?" - Ginny
"Not so good. Where's Harry?" - Ron
"He went to talk to Malfoy." - Ginny
"Is that such a good idea?" - Ron
"It might do them both some good." - Ginny
----------
"What are you afraid of?" - Harry
"I'm not 'afraid' of anything but you saw what he did to her. I can't be there to protect her twenty-four hours a day." - Draco
"Well at the moment you're not protecting her at all." - Harry
"That's because as long as I stay away from her she doesn't need protecting." - Draco
"That's bullshit. Lucius will come after no matter what you do, It's obvious that he considers her to be a threat now." - Harry
"I thought you wanted me to stay away from her? You told me if I cared about her I wouldn't go anywhere near her" - Draco
"Well maybe I was wrong. Maybe if you cared about her at all you wouldn't be giving up on her
so easily." - Harry
