"Why do you always try to run?" Barty sighed, his fingers digging into Hermione's jaw so that she couldn't look away. "I love you, you belong to me."
"I don't belong to anybody," she spat. "I'll never let anybody put me in a cage."
"I don't want to put you in a cage," he cooed, his grip loosening so that he could stroke her hair. "I want to love you!"
"No, you don't," she argued, trying to shake her head but only serving for his fingers to dig in deeper. "This is a crazy infatuation. It isn't love."
"Oh, sweetie," he cooed, pressing a kiss to her forehead. "I've loved you since you were fifteen. It shows my dedication to you, to us."
"You're insane."
"No, it's called love." He pressed kisses, tracing a pattern from her forehead to her lips, where he placed a firmer, more lingering one. "We'll be together forever."
