"Hermione?" He called hopefully. "Hermione, please Hermione, you can't leave me do you understand?" He laid his head on her chest and tears started falling freely down his face. "Please come back to me Hermione," he cried desperately.

He knew life wasn't worth living if he didn't have her. The doors to the hospital wing opened and Professor Dumbledoor walked in. Draco knew what this meant. He knew he had come to take Hermione's body.

"Mr. Malfoy?" Draco didn't move from his spot. "Mr. Malfoy, please will you just let us take her," Draco shook his head. He didn't feel like speaking with anyone. All he wanted to do was lie there with her forever.

"Give her one more day," Draco said. "I know she'll come back to me, I just know it," Draco said trying to convince himself.

"Mr. Malfoy," Dumbledoor sighed. "I know what your going through, but she's not coming back," Draco looked up towards the old man. "She's gone," Draco shook his head.

"One more day you'll see," Draco said quietly.

"Fine one day," Dumbledoor said. "But after that she's going do you understand?" Draco nodded. He lay across Hermione and sighed.

"I know your not coming back," He said softly. "I'm just not ready to let you go yet," Draco tried to fight the tears but they kept coming. He looked down at his hands and saw her blood. All over his arms and pants. "That's it!" He ran into Madame Pomfrey's office.

"Madame Pomfrey, did you try putting more blood back into Hermione," Draco said all in one breath.

"No, Mr. Malfoy, I didn't try the blood replenishing spell," Madame Pomfrey followed Draco to where Hermione was lying. "I don't see how this will work," Madame Pomfrey said doubtfully. "she's already gone," but she tried it anyway. A bright glow emitted from Hermione. She floated in the air and suddenly it hit him.

"Hermione tried to do this spell on her," He said more to himself than Madame Pomfrey. "When she was out cold, she did the same thing, but she must not have been strong enough," Madame Pomfrey looked over at him with curious eyes. Hermione's body floated to the bed and hit with a soft thump.

The glow slowly faded from her toes and then to her legs. Draco ran to her side and grabbed hold of one of her pale hands. The glow was gone completely and Draco closed his eyes wishing for the best.

"Come on Hermione," he said softly. "You can pull through I know you can," Her hand twitched slightly and her eyes fluttered open.

"Hermione," he said softly. She didn't say anything only looked at him with her honey eyes. "Thank Merlin," he said louder than he meant to. He slowly brushed his lips against her forehead and looked at her with joy in his eyes.

"What," Hermione's voice was weak and he could barely hear her. " What happened to you?" she asked pointing toward the blood.

"don't worry about it," He chuckled. "All that matters is that your safe,"
