***What a day..Wow I'm exhausted. I hope you like the chapter. I am sorry I didn't update yesterday. Hope you can forgive me!
After Christmas, when everyone returned to Hogwarts everything had already changed. Draco didn't talk with anyone except Pansy. He had suspected that Pansy was the secret spy and he wanted to make sure she knew that he would break up with Hermione. He thought that it was better to break up with her sooner than later. While the welcome back feast has started, Draco stood up and left the Great Hall. Five pairs of eyes were watching his every move. At the Gryffindor table Hermione was watching him walking away and she sighed. She didn't know what had happened to him and that made her shiver. He didn't even talk to her at all at the train. She turned back to her feast and thought that he would talk to her later. Blaise on the other hand at the Slytherin table had sensed that his friend was depressed and when he had asked him what had happened Draco just told him to look at his business and leave him alone. He was sure that something had happened back at the Manor. Draco was never so cold.
After the feast was finished everyone went back to their common rooms. When Blaise went to his dorm he saw Draco writing something to a parchment frantic. He went behind him and touched his shoulder and said '''Draco, mate what's wrong?''
Draco looked simply at him and said ''Nothing'' He stood up and pushed Blaise aside to leave the room
Blaise was taken aback from his answer and his moves and said. ''I know that you lying Draco. Tell me the truth''
''I don't need to say anything to you Blaise'' Draco said with regret filling him inside. He looked at Blaise one more time and walked out of the door but before he could leave he heard Blaise.
''Draco where are you going?'' Blaise asked him with anger
''Owlery'' Draco simply said and left
Meanwhile at the Gryffindor Tower, Hermione was sitting in front of the fire alone with her knees leaning at her chest and her arms upon her knees while looking at the dancing flames until Harry and Ron walked inside the common room. Ron was sleepy and bid goodnight to his two best friends and went to his dorm while Harry went and sat beside Hermione.
'Mione, don't worry. I am sure that Malfoy is fine.'' Harry said and rubbed Hermione's arm. She looked at him with her sad expression and nodded.
''I just can't understand why is he like this'' Hermione said but before Harry could answer, a tap was heard at the window and Harry went and opened the window for the owl to come inside. The owl gave Hermione the letter and left. Hermione opened the letter and inside it was written.
Hermione,
Come to the room of Requirement. I need to talk to you.
I'll be waiting
D.M
Hermione looked at Harry who nodded at her and she stood up and left. She walked to the Room of Requirement and saw Draco there in front of the fireplace. He looked at her and she went running to him. She wrapped her arms around him but Draco didn't move his hands from behind his back. Hermione looked at him and saw something she had only seen years ago. Coldness!
''Draco'' she whispered afraid to even talk louder
Draco took a breath. ''Hermione, I am breaking up with you'' he said emotionless
Hermione was taken aback and widened her eyes ''What'' she asked in a whisper.
''What part didn't you realized? We are through. You never meant anything for me. You will always be a filth mudblood. Look at you. Just a mudblood. You are nothing. I was playing with you Granger. I was only playing with you'' Draco said and left before Hermione could even speak.
Draco walked down towards the dungeon with tears streaming down his face. His heart was in million pieces. What had he done to the only person he ever loved? Why did he say all those things to her? He leaned to the wall and sank down touching his knees to his chest and putting his head to his knees, he started to sob. He knew that he had destroyed everything he had. But now he couldn't do anything else.
Meanwhile at the Room of Requirement Hermione was in shock but tears had started to stream down her face rapidly. She came back from her shock and fell down to her knees. She put her hands to her face and started to sob. In her mind were only his words 'You are nothing. I was only playing with you'. She screamed and cried and screamed again. She wanted to just rip those memories of Draco from her head. She just wanted to forget. She cried and cried louder and louder. Her face was wet and her eyes red from crying. She stood up and took some steps but she was exhausted. She fainted a little later from the pain, the screaming and the crying. An hour or so later Harry found her in that condition.
Harry was waiting for Hermione in the common room but suddenly he felt a pain in his heart and stood up and went to the Room of Requirement. He wished to see Hermione and the door opened. What he saw made him gasp. Inside the room was a girl lying in the floor. He run to her and when he saw that the girl was Hermione he kneeled down and took her to his arms. ''Mione, come on wake up. What did he do to you? Mione! Mione! '' He took the hair from her face and patted her cheeks. He shook her slightly and again said ''Come on Mione, open your eyes! Mione, please! Please!'' He couldn't hold his own tears which fall rapidly from his cheeks. He patted her cheeks again and shook her again slightly and Hermione opened her eyes. Harry smiled at her and hugged her tight ''Oh Mione, I thought that I lost you. What have happened Mione? Why were you unconscious? Who did this to you?''Harry asked when he looked at her red eyes from the crying.
Hermione's eyes started to water again and tears rolled down her cheeks ''Draco- He- He- broke up with me'' Hermione said and again exhausted fainted.
Harry widened his eyes and looked at his friend who had fainted again in his arms. His only thought was the death of the one Draco Malfoy. But first, he had to take care of Hermione. Harry took her in his arms and went to the Hospital Wing and stayed with Hermione there all night after Madam Pomfrey gave her a calming draught.
