A/N Okay, this is the final chapter, and I think it's the longest I've ever posted. It kinda makes up for the delays and the shortness of last chapter. Which, by the way, I am kind of disappointed about. I only got one review! So, thank you to sapphireice19 for reviewing once again. I hope you are all satisfied with this chapter, and that you will take a couple of minutes, or seconds depending, to tell me what you think. Even if it's one word, though I appreciate more, I would be very grateful to you. So, please review!

Enough of that. Read on!

I turned to make sure Draco had safely hidden himself like I asked when I saw him fall, and I saw the remnants of a green glow surrounding him.

"NO!!!! WHO DID THIS!"

Severus Snape's wand was pointed in my Draco's direction.

"YOU!" It came out as more of a roar than anything. "HE TRUSTED YOU! I TRUSTED YOU! YOU KILLED HIM!"

I saw red. I turned to the nearest cloaked figure, and he fell to me.

Soon, only Lucius was left standing. He smirked. "Looking for someone?"

"Where is that traitor?" My voice became even more animalistic.

"He's run off. Now, I want to duel with you and get you out of my way, once and for all."

I was too angry to say anything. The man my Draco had trusted killed him. I bowed quickly and watched Lucius do the same.

He took the first shot. He grazed my shoulder with a spell I didn't recognize.

I took the next shot. It was the final one. Lucius fell to his death by my spell. He wasn't who I wanted to kill, but he had tortured my Draco. He deserved to die.

After Lucius hit the ground, I ran to my Draco. I gathered him in my arms and cried. We had finally achieved the happiness we had been striving for, and, as soon as we had, death tore that apart.

I knew it was hopeless, but I had to take my Draco to the Hospital, and the only one I could think of that would accept him, though he was cleared of all charges, was Hogwarts. I looked and saw that my baby girl was still safe with Mrs. Weasley. I nodded my thanks to her quickly and saw that she understood.

I closed my tear soaked eyes and felt more pour down my cheeks. I focused on the wards surrounding Hogwarts and on bypassing them.

It worked, and soon I was in my school once again.

"Madame Pomfrey! Come quickly!"

"What is it, children! I'm trying to- Oh, dear. What happened?"

"It's our wedding day. Lucius Malfoy and his Death Eaters attacked." I growled then. "Severus Snape killed him."

"Oh dear. Go wait outside, dear. You won't be of any help in here. Go on, shoo." I stood and kissed his lips one more time. The fact that his lips were still warm broke my heart even more.

I sat outside the Hospital Wing for three hours, waiting for Madame Pomfrey to tell me what I already knew. My Draco is dead. More tears fell at the complete heartbreak I felt.

"You really do love him." A surprised voice jolted me from my misery. I'd recognize that voice anywhere.

"Snape! He trusted you! You were his best man! YOU KILLED HIM!!" I saw red again. "If you saw what happened at our wedding when your lot showed up, you'd better GET THE HELL OUT OF HERE BEFORE I KILL YOU FOR WHAT YOU'VE DONE TO HIM!"

"Harry, let me explain!"

"You have no right to call me Harry! You KILLED my husband! I love him more than you could even hope to understand, and YOU KILLED HIM!"

"POTTER! HE'S NOT DEAD!"

I froze. "Yes he is. I saw the curse YOU threw at him!"

"It's modified. It won't kill him. It only put him into a coma, but, because I invented the spell, only I can remove it from him."

"I don't trust you."

"You don't have to. It comes down to this. Do you want Draco to live, or don't you? Because if you don't let me in that room, he will die. The spell only lasts a couple of hours before it actually kills. And if he starts to scream, it means he's dying. So, unless you wish to hear the dying scream of your husband, which, believe me, you really don't, STEP ASIDE!"

"I still don't trust you."

"I'M TRYING TO HELP YOU! WHY CAN'T YOU UNDERSTAND THAT? I HAD TO LISTEN TO LILY'S DYING WISH TO SPARE YOU, FOLLOWED-followed by the two most horrible words in the world. Don't make me go through that again. Please, let me save you from this pain."

"Why are you so giving all of the sudden? You hate me."

"Once again, we have to hurry if we want to save him!"

"Fine, but you're going to explain why you're doing this while you're removing the spell."

"Fine."

I nodded and stepped inside the Hospital Wing. Severus was behind me. He walked up to Madame Pomfrey and nodded to her. She stepped aside and let him take over.

"Now tell me."

"I'll only say this once, Po-Harry, so listen. You swore you loved him. I didn't believe you. I never thought James Potter could love Lily either. But, James gave up his life to give your mother more time to save you. I was wrong about them, and it was my belief that James couldn't love her that led to their deaths. Just as with James Potter, I knew you couldn't love Draco the way he deserved. I was going to hit Draco with this spell and take him and run. But as soon as he fell, you turned and saw me. I saw the monster you became to protect him, and I watched as you killed all of those people because they were connected to the one who hurt your husband. And when you were out there waiting for confirmation that Draco was dead, those were the most heartbreaking tears I have ever seen in my life, and even I've doubted that I had a heart at times. I didn't trust you, and I didn't believe that you could love anyone but yourself. I saw what you did to protect Draco, and you don't even notice the flesh eating curse that is slowing destroying your shoulder. I hate making mistakes, so I don't want to make the same on again. I'm not going to mess up another Potter's life because of my misconceptions. I apologize for the anger and fear that I caused you, but it had to be done."

"Why exactly, did it have to be done?"

"I saved Draco from actually being killed. He left his back open to focus on helping you. I shot the spell at him so that the attention would go from him to me, and then to you, who had a prayer of defending yourself."

I sighed in defeat. Though I didn't like it, his logic was sound. "Why couldn't you tell me?"

"I had to make it realistic. You can't fake a reaction like the one you had. I apologize once again for the pain I put you through, thinking he was dead. I hope you will forgive me eventually, but I understand if you won't. He should wake up in a half an hour."

I nodded to thank him, still angry enough to not want to say it.

"Mr. Potter, you should take care of yourself too. You were hit multiple times in the battle. "

I looked down and noticed I should have been in extreme pain. I shrugged. "They will heal on their own."

Severus just shook his head and turned and left. I sat down next to Draco's bed. I took his cold hand in mine. I couldn't help but still thinking he was dead. He was so cold, and he wasn't breathing. I knew Madame Pomfrey's spells would give him enough oxygen to survive until he could breathe on his own again, but I still couldn't help crying at his still form. It was our wedding day. We finally got what we wanted for so long, and his father had to take that away from us.

I grew angry again. Lucius Malfoy was the worst kind of person in the world. I started to shake again and I felt myself losing control of my magic again.

I panicked, knowing that I could hurt Draco if I lost too much control. I took a deep breath and had an idea. I closed my eyes and reminded myself that Lucius Malfoy was dead. I turned my thoughts to more positive things and focused on healing Draco from the effects of the spell. I focused on him with everything I had.

I felt him growing stronger while I grew slightly weaker. I was not in contact with him, and that was the difference from last time. It was harder to do this without contact, and I was already exhausted from bypassing Hogwarts' wards. This was almost as draining as healing Draco's Dark Mark. I groped around until I found my husband's hand. The healing immediately became easier and some of my strength returned to me.

I drew my magic back into me and opened my eyes. I hoped it worked, but I was willing to try again.

"Mr. Potter! What was that?" The terrified voice of Madame Pomfrey reminded me of where I was.

"What was what?"

"Your eyes started to glow!"

"Really?"

"What was it?"

"Uh, I guess that happens when I get really angry? I was thinking about Lucius Malfoy. He ruined my wedding day and he's the reason my husband is lying here right now."

"Mr. Potter, why did you come here? Why not St. Mungo's or any other hospital?"

"Nowhere else would accept him. He was a Death Eater. He no longer bears that mark, but he is still persecuted as a Death Eater because of his father. I had to come here."

"So he is not a Death Eater?"

"No. He was forced into it. Tortured into it actually. He has almost as many scars as I do."

"Poor child. No one should have to go through that. You two shouldn't even be scarred. You both deserve better than this."

"I'm working on it. He deserves to be happy, and I'm trying my hardest to make him so. He's so jaded. I don't know what I did to get him to trust me after everything he's been through, but I'm going to do my best to make sure I never break his trust. I'm ashamed that I did it once, and I'm determined to never do it again."

Madame Pomfrey sighed. "Harry," It was the first time she used my first name in a long time, "did it ever occur to you that maybe Draco feels this way about you too? You deserve happiness just as much as he does."

"I don't care if I deserve it. He comes before me." Draco's hand started to warm in mine.

Then he moved.

"Draco!"

"H-Harry. Cold." I noticed he was shivering. I looked at Madame Pomfrey.

"Go on. Your body heat will warm him faster than any spell I have."

I nodded. "Can you turn on your side?"

He tried, but I ended up rearranging him. He seemed so frail. I took off my wedding robes and unbuttoned my shirt so that he could get as much body heat as possible.

I lay next to him and wrapped my arms around him. He curled into me. He was as cold as death. More tears fell. It hit me how close I was to losing him.

He slowly rolled over to face me and pulled back so he could look at my face. "Why are you crying?"

I pulled him closer to me and gave him some of my magic to try and stop his shivering. "I came so close to losing you. You were so close to dying."

Draco grabbed my hand. "But you didn't. You won't get rid of me that easily."

"I love you."

"I love you too."

Draco gasped. "My baby! Did it survive?"

"He will live. He was only slightly injured in your fall. He broke his arm, but I fixed it for you."

"What would have happened if we didn't have magic to heal him?"

"His arm, in all probability, would have set wrongly and, depending on how it set and grew, it would either be permanently crippled or we might have a chance to save it by rebreaking it and setting it correctly."

"I love magic."

Draco laughed. "Me too." He turned back to Madame Pomfrey. "So, he will live?"

"He will be perfectly healthy."

"Thank you, Madame."

"I'll leave you two."

We both nodded.

I waited until she left. "Don't ever scare me like that again!"

"Babe, I really didn't have a choice."

"You could have gone somewhere save like I asked!"

"I couldn't leave you out there!"

"You should have, but I'm not going to ruin this. You're alive, our daughter is safe, our son is fine, and we're married. I'm not going to ruin it with an argument on our wedding day."

Draco smiled and burrowed his head into my chest again. "So, what happened?"

"Um, I, uh, killed."

"Why are you ashamed of that?"

"I turned into a monster. I saw you fall and everything went red. I didn't just kill. I slaughtered every single one of them. They're all dead."

"Even Severus?"

"No, not Severus. He ran."

"You don't seem angry at him."

"He explained what happened and his reasons for attacking you. If I wasn't so scared and angry at the time, I probably would have been relieved at his reasoning."

"It was something about protecting me, right?"

"Yeah."

Draco sighed. "I appreciate what that you want to protect me, Harry, but I'm not a girl. I don't need to be sheltered all the time."

"I know, and I'm sorry that I didn't want to let you fight. But you mean so much to me. I couldn't bear it if I had to lose you. I'll try not to worry so much, but you're my world."

"I'm grateful that someone cares this much about me, but I can take care of myself."

"I know you can. I'm sorry, Drake."

"It's alright Harry. Just let me help next time."

"I just hope there isn't a 'next time'."

"Harry."

"Okay. If we're ever attacked again, I will let you help. Happy?"

"Thank you." He kissed my head and burrowed back into me. "Harry," He yawned. "'M tired."

"Then sleep, babe. I'm not going anywhere."

"M'kay. Promise?"

"I promise."

"'Kay."

Draco fell asleep and I followed soon after, happy that I everything was right once again.

The end.

A/N There will be an epilogue.
