Draco's diary:
Friday, 28 March
That evening I was standing behind the railing of the Astronomy Tower.
I've always come here with her, since we were kids. But that evening I was standing there alone, looking down, and a cold wind was blowing in my hair. I struggled to hold back the tears that pressed into my eyes.
Those few words that I said that night changed everything irreversibly.
I know I hurt her and I am very sorry for it, but if there is only one way to keep Alli safe, I can face the consequences. So I made a decision and despite many doubts, I decided that it would be for the best.
For us.
For her.
Everything felt so small from this height, I felt everything was so simple. But going down the stairs, everything immediately started to get bigger and outgrown me.
When I see Alli wiping her tears with her sleeve, how sad she walks down the corridors, then I have doubts and wonder 'If I really did the right thing.' But then I remember Voldemort, his deadly gaze and the pain that pierced my body. I don't want the same thing to happen to her.
Evenings are the worst of all this.
I don't think it's been ever so quiet in my room.
When I fall asleep I look at the ceiling and when I realize that there will be no more hugs, no more kisses, no more watching the stars, no more holding hands, no more touching her body.
No more her.
Then I feel like some enormous force, coming from an unknown place, squeezes my heart tightly.
Despite this, I clench my fists tightly because I know that this is the only why to protect her.
The Battle of Hogwarts is fast approaching and Voldemort is just waiting to catch her and kill her.
Therefore, when the need arises, I will protect it with my own breast. If only she knew about it...
