Let them watch

10

"a monster? Draco a monster is someone who kills...so wouldn't that make both of us a monster?" He questioned, a sly smirk on his face "I...I.." I stuttered "Draco" her voice rang through my ears. I turned around to see hermione "the guards say you only have 5 minutes left" I nodded, she turned to leave but I beckoned her back. She stood against the wall as I continued to speak to my father "no father, that wouldn't make us both monsters. Becuase like someone once said to me.." I began, turning to Hermione

"I was forced into something much bigger than myself. Forced to grow up to soon. You had a choice...I did not" i said coldly. His face went bitter as he turned away "Mister Malfoy, Miss zabini...it's time" the guard said. I placed my hand on my father's "goodbye father" i said turning away. I reached the door before I heard him whisper "I love you son". I turned around "I love you too dad..." i said before walking out the door and watching through the glass.

Hermiones hand gripped mine as the dementor was let in. It began to suck my father soul. It was a foul thing to watch. He began to become paler but soon enough the light left his eyes but the dementors didn't stop after that. My fathers eyes popped out of his head and far more gruesome things began to happen; Causing Hermione to throw up. I gasped when her hand left mine as a guard took her away but I couldn't not watch the dementor. Soon my father was just a bag of bones lying in a chair, my eyes burned as I held back tears.

Once they wheeled him out i went to find Hermione, she was in the ministers office with a bucket beside her "Hermione" I said walking over and hugging her "I'm sorry Draco, I couldn't watch it anymore it wa-.." "hey hey, it's okay. I understand it's hard to watch" I said kissing the top of her head. She smiled before quickly lifting the buckets and throwing up again "lovely" I said sarcastically, rubbing her back.

When she finally stopped being sick we were sent back to hogwarts. I brought her up to the dorm and she decided on taking a nap. It's was 4:00pm. I went to find Theo and Blaise, I walked down to hogsmede and found them in the three broomsticks. I ordered a fire whisky and went to sit with them "mate how was it?" They both said getting up and giving me a hug "strangely emotional, he said he loved me before the dementor was brought in.." I sighed, sitting down

"so...you chose-" "yes Theo, both me and Hermione did. The overall vote was dementors kiss...he deserved it though so I can't really be upset about that. The dementor killing him was the worst sight....it's caused Hermione to throw up. I couldn't not watch him, mother wasn't there it didn't feel right to just leave him..ya know?" I finished. They both nodded and we finished our drinks, I said my goodbyes and decided on some time alone before checking on Hermione.

I walked into a bookshop and noticed a book both me and Hermione had been looking at just last weekend, I grabbed it and payed for it before running into the sweet shop and grabbing some chocolate frogs, and a sweet mix for Hermione. I grabbed myself some jellybeans and a colour changing lolly. I walked up to the castle and into my dorm. When I walked in Hermione was sitting in front of the fire with a cat

"hey love"she said, her hair falling over her face "hey...who's your friend?" I asked "I'm not sure, I seen her roaming the castle...she seemed kind of lost. I brought her in and gave her some milk and then she didn't want to leave. She's been here for over an hour"she said with a smile. I walked over and sat beside her "what did you get up to?" Hermione asked, eyes pointing to the bag "close your eyes" I said. She did and I placed the book in front of her,she opened them and squealed "Draco!" She shouted happily

"I thought we could read together later, I got us some sweets as well" I said with a smile. She placed a kiss on my cheek before I grabbed her chin and pointed her lips towards mine. She kissed me again and pulled away, diving at me "I love you!" She said "I love you more Mione" I said kissing her head.

Hermiones pov

It was now 3am, Draco was sound asleep beside me but I couldn't fall asleep. Usually it's the other way round. The words my father said ringing through my head, the feeling of his grip on my wrist still there...he was a scary man. I grabbed my wand and got out of bed, what's the point in staying in it if I'm not going to sleep? I pulled on a hoodie and some shoes before walking out the common room door, there's only ever one person up this time.

I walked to The gryffindor common room and whispered the password. Quietly I walked up the 7th year boy stair case to see a small light shine through the glass window, I opened the door to see a slim figure sitting on the corner bed...Harry. "Hermione?" He asked, slightly scared to see me standing by the door "I couldn't sleep...guessing you couldn't either?" I asked, walking over and sitting on the end of the bed "when do I ever actually sleep?" He asked, I laughed. Causing Seamus to grunt in his sleep. I smirked, covering my mouth to stifle a laugh "let's head down to the common room" Harry said.

We walked down and sat in front of the fire "where's lover boy?" Harry asked, I laughed "out for the count...we were reading and he just fell asleep. I may have finished the rest of the 400 page book he bought us to read Together but he doesn't need to know" I said with a smile "so what's keeping you up?" He asked "I met my father today....he's a terrifying man, but I've met worse" I sighed "He was nothing like I pictured, I pictured a ragged man. With greasy hair and horrible face but he looked pleasant I guess....he reminded me of Blaise" I finished

"It must have hurt seeing him, after all he's done?" Harry questioned. I thought for a moment before smiling "no...it was rather....good I guess" "How?" Harry asked, a bewildered look on his face "Becuase I know now that him being where he is and the person he turned out to be is no one else's fault but his own...and that gives me some type of peace" I said. Harry said nothing else, he only wrapped his arm round my shoulder and I leant my head against his...we didn't say a word the rest of the time I was there. We didn't need to.

You see after 8 years of friendship you form a type of bond that really no matter what situation it is...you never really need to speak...just think and the other will know. Me and Harry have that bond.
