Harry Potter x Reader

Chapter 36

"Get dressed you two, they have Harry and his friends, and Bella wants everyone to see her torture the girl." Narcissa says. You gasp as you realize she's talking about Hermione. You run and get dressed, and without waiting for Draco, you run downstairs.

You wait behind a doorway, hearing Bellatrix's cackles. You wait there until Draco catches up to you, and he grabs your hand and walks in. You two had to pretend you were in a relationship or else Voldemort would know something was wrong.

You see three people that look nothing like your friends. But when you see the eyes of one boy fill with tears, you know it's Harry. You feel awful that you can't explain yourself, but at the moment the death eaters aren't sure that it's them, and you weren't going to be the reason they were killed.

But eventually the Polyjuice wore off, and here was Harry. You saw the hurt looks on all of their faces, and tears sprung to your eyes.

Bellatrix sent the two boys to the dungeon, then lunged at Hermione. Draco dragged you off while covering your mouth to prevent your screaming.

"Go talk to Harry. I'll stay up here." He said. You nod with tears in your eyes. You turn to leave, but then turn around and hug Draco tightly.

"Thank you, you're an amazing best friend." You say. He hugs you back, and then you run to Harry.

"Harry!" You whisper through the bars of the cell. Harry looks up at you in disgust.

"You joined the Death Eaters?" He snarls.

"No! They captured me that night at the school, but Draco pretended to be in love with me so they wouldn't kill me. He saved my life. But look, I'm not one of them." You say, pulling up your sleeve. Harry sighs in relief and runs to you, grabbing your hands through the bars.

"I was so worried." He says, tears falling. You squeeze his hands.

"I know. I'm sorry." You say. Suddenly you hear screams of agony.

"Hermione!" Ron bellows, and tries to break down the door.

"(Y/n) let us out!" Ron screams at you. You sigh.

"I can't. They took my wand." You sigh. Hermione's screams fill the manor, and soon you're crying. Ron is going mad, and Harry hasn't let go of your hands.

Suddenly you hear someone behind you. You pull away from Harry and shriek when you see Peter Pettigrew.

"No! I'm here to help!" He says, and let's the boys out. Harry runs to you and hugs you as Ron runs up the stairs.

"Harry come on!" You say, but before you can leave, Peter falls to the floor, and starts to choke himself.

"It's his hand, there's nothing we can do." You say to Harry sadly. After Harry's failed attempts at saving him, he lies dead on the floor of the cell.

"Hermione." Harry remember. You run up the stairs, and Bellatrix is furious.

Suddenly, a house elf appears.

"Dobby!" Harry yells. You smile at the elf, and he snaps his fingers.

Suddenly you're pushed to the ground and you hear a loud crash. You look up to see that Harry is on top of you, shielding you from the glass chandelier.

Dobby apparates with you and the trio, and suddenly you're on a beach.

You turn to see Harry, but he's crying.

Dobby had a knife in his back.

You decide to leave him alone to say goodbye. You say hello to Bill and Fleur, and they show you to a room that you share with Luna. You don't see Harry again at all until the next morning, and you found out he spent the night digging a grave.

"Good morning." You smile at him when you see him at the table. He looks at you, but doesn't smile. You take a seat next to him and he wraps his arms around you, taking you by surprise.

He doesn't say a word for a while, and neither do you.

Finally, he speaks.

"I love you." He says.
