"KARI!!" Draco yelled as I had stopped talking. Someone was screaming bloody murder; I dropped to my knees and clasped my hands over my ears. Draco pulled me to his chest after he too dropped to his knees. I felt him guide my mouth closed, and when I felt my mouth close, the screaming ceased, so it was me screaming.
"KARI HOW DARE YOU!!!!!!!" I heard The Dark Lord yell "DO NOT MAKE ME HURT YOU!" I felt the locket constrict around my neck. I pulled at it, my face was turning colors. Draco pulled the locket off, trying to help me breathe. I took a deep breath, and after regaining my lung function and thought process, I threw my arms around him and tears trickled down my cheeks.
"You saved my life."
"You act like I had a choice."
"What?"
"I'd never be able to let anything to happen to you," he whispered, lightly wiping tears from my eyes.
My lips met his; I was kissing him strongly, as if trying to convey my heavy gratitude through the kiss. I was being pushed away from Draco, by Draco. I looked at him, he didn't look happy.
"Draco?" I asked, looking into his eyes.
"No, date Brendan, love him, kiss him, let him hold you, I'm not good enough, I don't want you getting attached." He told me, looking out the window.
"You just saved my life!" I told him, I was heaving as if I were about to cry again. Draco sighed. "Please, I want to be with you!" I whispered, grabbing the part of his robe, close to his knee, he had stood up.
"Kari, I'm not good for you." Draco began. I let go of his robes.
"Okay," I told him, letting go of the robe. He disappeared out of the compartment. I was back to where I had started, except the rush of pain that made me want to be dead was double what it had been before I had met Draco. I got up to gather my stuff, and did. I waited for the train to stop, as I did so I doodled on the inside of my journal. Well, not doodle, per se.

I had decided. Draco was wrong anyway. He is perfect for me anyway. Anyway won't make him come back. I told myself that I'd try to make him see that he's perfect for me, and I for him. I looped the horcrux onto my neck, after fixing the link the Draco had broken trying to get it off my neck. After I looped it on I put my shoes back on, then I gathered up all my stuff.
"Eureka!" I had figured out how to convince Draco he was perfect for me, 'accidentally' put myself in a life-or-death situation and let him save me, then I would convince Draco that I need him. I just hoped Draco liked, or, I daresay, loved me enough and was stupid enough to fall for it.
The train came to a stop. I heard people talking, and the distinct voice of Draco Malfoy just outside my door, he was talking to his two friends. I heard the door open, I had turned around to make sure everything was where it was supposed to be.
"Kari, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have left out like that." Draco said. It took me by surprise when her turned me around and hugged me close. I pushed at him.
"What's your problem? You leave me like that and you think 'sorry' is going to cut it?" I demanded, I couldn't believe I had just raised my voice at him. I felt his lips violently against mine, I melted into his lips and his arms. He released my lips.
"I'm sorry I left you like that, will you forgive me, I promise I'll never do that again." Draco promised, offering his pinky. I looped my pinky around his and smiled.
"I forgive you." I told him.
"You're gonna be all lonely, the only third year that has to be sorted." Draco told me, grabbing my stuff. "I'll take this; you go with the first years." Draco told me and nudged me softly out the door.
