Chapter Six: 3rd person's POV
Harry sat across from Hydrae in the library. Harry had been helping Hydrae with her defence against the dark arts and now she was helping him with his potions.
Even with the half-blood princes book he knew that Hydrae was still better at potions.
Having Hydrae as a friend wasn't all that bad, now that he knew her. He wondered if his families hadn't always hated each other whether or not they would've been friends before.
Hydrae was happy that Harry had accepted her as a friend.
She knew that she would never mean the same to him as Ginny did but she was happy to have him as a friend.
Hydrae promised herself that she would move on and only think of Harry as a friend from now on.
She knew that this would be hard considering the fact that she had considered herself as in love with him for nearly six years now.
Knowing that she had Alisa at her side made her more comfortable with her decision; she knew that Alisa would help her get through it.
It was the day before Christmas holidays and Draco was helping Alisa pack, having already packed himself.
He grinned as he packed a picture of the two of them sitting outside by the lake at night. Alisa's hair was glistening from the moonlight that reflected off the lake's surface.
His arms were wrapped around her waist, and something about the way he looked at her made you think that he thought she was made of glass.
He looked at her as though she was the most delicate thing in his life, and she was.
She was the center of his universe, whether she knew it or not. She might know that he cares about her, but Alisa didn't know that Draco was deeply in love her.
Alisa smiled as she looked over at Draco, remembering the night that picture was taken.
The picture had been beside her bed for the last week or so since it was taken.
Every night Alisa looked at that photo and a smile appeared on her face as she fell into a deep peaceful sleep.
'I remember when you took that,' Alisa said with a smile.
Draco placed the photo down before turning around and taking Alisa in his arms, he pulled her into his chest.
He placed a kiss on her neck and smiled, 'me too.'
Alisa and Draco finished packing before falling asleep on her bed.
Hydrae shook Alisa awake, regretting that she needed to wake her; Alisa looked so cute lying next to Hydrae's brother.
Hydrae had tears in her eyes, she knew that letting Harry go would hurt but it was the right thing for her to do.
Hydrae would heal eventually, over time her pain would go away.
Alisa woke, looking up at Hydrae she automatically slid over allowing Hydrae to sit down on the edge of the bed.
She looked at Draco making sure he was still asleep before turning to Alisa.
'I'm giving him up. I know it's the right thing to do, since he likes Ginny.'
Hydrae's voice was calm as she started but Alisa saw her getting more worked up by the second.
'It hurts Alisa, it hurts so badly.' Hydrae collapsed into Alisa's open arms as she sobbed.
Alisa stroked her hair in an attempt to calm her friend down.
Draco shifted in the bed looking up at Hydrae, her crying had woken him.
'Hey, it's okay. What's wrong?' He was addressing Alisa but his eyes never left Hydrae's sobbing figure.
Alisa looked at Hydrae but she shook her head. Sighing Alisa turned her head back to Draco.
'I can't tell you. Not until she is ready.'
Draco nodded before taking Hydrae into his lap and cradling her with his arms.
'It's going to be okay sis. I promise I'll take care of you no matter what.'
After a while Hydrae fell asleep and Draco laid her down in her bed before returning to Alisa's and laying down beside her.
