You were in the Gryffindor common room. Your heart hadn't stopped hammering against your chest ever since you heard the closet was working and the death eaters could come any minute now.
Hermione and Harry were there, sitting on the couches in the main room while Ron was sleeping, as always.
Hermione was staring at you, more like glaring. You knew that she knew something was up. You were gone the night of the ball, the couple of nights you were gone too.
"Where have you been?" Hermione finally asked, a tone of hesitation was evident in her voice. You simply looked up at her with a normal look on your face.
"I've been busy studying." You lied. Simple, believable lie. But to Hermione, it was an obvious lie. "I spend 4 hours studying in the library, Y/n." She said.
"Okay, I've been spending time with Draco. In case you forgot, he is my friend as well." You replied, Harry, heaving a sigh.
"It doesn't look like he's only your friend," Harry said, looking up at you from the book he was surprisingly reading.
"You left Fred at the ball the other night and I saw you leave with Malfoy. Then you came back all flushed and weird with Malfoy, again." He explained.
"I don't want to think about what you two did, but it's pretty obvious you slept with each other." He stated, making you scoff.
"Well, I'm sorry. I didn't know you were all so up and into my private business." You said angrily, slamming the book in your hands shut.
You got up harshly and slammed the book on the coffee table, heading to the stairs to your room but you stopped.
You let out a laugh, looking up at the ceiling before looking at them, turning to face them. "You know what? Yes, I slept with Draco. Because I love him." You stated.
"Because I care for him and he cares for me. He cares about you too. He tries to push you away because he is scared to hurt you. Because he is scared you will get hurt because of him." You exclaimed.
"I care about you as much as he does and I'm trying to do everything I can to be on your side but I can't because I have no other choice than to lie to you and push you away hoping you will forget about me before I get you hurt!" You yelled.
You were angry. Very angry. But not at them. You were angry at yourself, at Voldemort. At the death eaters.
"Y/n, what is going on?" Hermione asked, this time, she was worried. She got up and headed towards you, grabbing your shoulder caringly.
"What is happening?" You were about to reply but a loud explosion echoed throughout the entire castle, making you stumbled since everything shook.
"What is going on?" Harry asked hurriedly, getting up from the couch. You sobbed instantly when tears grew in your eyes, covering your mouth as you stared at them in guilt.
"I am sorry. We had no choice." You said quickly, Hermione and Harry staring at you in shock. Ron stumbled into the main room with his brothers, making you look at them.
"What is going on?" Ron asked in fear. "T-The death eaters. They are here." You said quickly before pulling your wand out and running to the door, "We had no choice and I am very sorry." You said before blowing up the ceiling in front of the exit of the common room when all of them followed after you.
"Y/n! We trusted you!!" Harry yelled angrily. "I know." You replied from the other side of the rubble, sobbing quietly and taking off to the astronomy tower.
When you reached, Draco was already there, pointing his wand at Dumbledore. You hurried up the steps and stood behind Draco, holding your wand tightly.
"Ah, Y/n..." Dumbledore said, a slight disappointment in his voice. "We had no choice, Professor. I'm sorry." You muttered, tears streaming down your cheeks.
"I saw this was coming long ago. I knew you had no choice. Two teens doing the devil's work. You are great kids, Y/n. You two can make the right choice." He said.
"Shut up! We have no choice!" Draco exclaimed. "We have to kill you or he will kill us!" You looked back to see Severus making his way up and caught a glimpse of Harry there.
"I'm sorry..." You mouthed. "Severus," Dumbledore said. Bellatrix and other death eaters also made their way inside too, laughing hysterically.
"Who's going to die tonight?!" Bellatrix shouted in a crazy tone, jumping around weirdly. You rolled your eyes and wiped your cheeks, glancing at Severus who stared at you worriedly.
You walked to the side, heaving a sigh before pointing your wand at Dumbledore. "Do it. Do it. Do it!" Bellatrix urged you.
"I'm sorry." You whispered to Dumbledore. "What are you doing?" Severus said quickly, heading to your side.
"What we are supposed to do!" You said quickly, your hand beginning to shake. "Let me do it," Severus whispered to you, his hand taking a hold of yours.
You looked at him with teary eyes, watching him nod his head. With a sigh, you put your hand down slowly, watching Severus point his wand at him instead.
"Severus," Dumbledore said, Severus, staring at him in hurt. "Avada Kedavra!" He cast, the green spell shooting out of the wand and at Dumbledore.
He was thrown off the railing, falling to the courtyard. "We have to go. Now!" Severus said as you, Draco, and he stood and stared at the empty space.
Bellatrix was cheering along with the others running off down to the Great Hall as you followed behind. Draco took your hand and dragged you out of there, following Severus.
It was done. Dumbledore was dead. Bellatrix was blowing everything up in the way, students were running in fear as you all ran out of the castle.
You gasped when Bellatrix blew up Hagrid's hut, the flames consuming the place. "Stop!" Harry screamed from behind you. "Sectusempra!" He cast, the spell about to hit you.
But Snape was quick enough to cast it away, causing it to hit Harry instead. "You dare use my spells against me?" Snape said angrily.
"Dad, help him." You said. He looked at you, staring deeply into your eyes and waiting for something. "Please." You whispered.
He then turned around and cast the counterspell, leaving Harry on the ground and pulling you and Draco far away from the school.
