'You have a choice!' He stood up from the red velvet arm chair grabbing my hands pulling me closer to him.

'No I don't! Don't you understand Ron!? If I don't accept them to be their mate they will die!' I felt the sweat of anger in his palms as he held a tight grasp I could not escape.

'You can't be serious? You're leaving me for some git you don't even know!'

'How many times do I need to tell you Ronald!' I struggle for air to repeat my words 'I don't want anymore blood on my hands.'

'How many times do I need to tell you? I love your hermione!' His face was full of red, the shade that showed his heartbreaking.

'If you truly loved me Ron you will let me go and not let me live my life with an innocent life's blood on my hand' I with draw my hands from Ron's grasp looking at his masked face of heartbreak. He stood their motionless with his eyes following me as I exit into the garden.

I felt terrible. No, I felt dreadful. Not only did I breakup with my boyfriend, it felt like I broke up with my best friend. I knew he wouldn't talk to me, for what will probably be, months...

I sat at the side of the burrow with my head into my hands. I could feels droplets of water flow down my arms. I sat there thinking of what had happened and what was to come... could it me more miserable than this? 'Stop' I told myself 'stop crying, get a grip your better than this.' I drag my head up and wipe my tears away, accept the water kept poring out of my eyes.

I could feel her. I could feel the devastation and guilt that sank into her heart... into my heart? I wanted to comfort her... but how could I comfort someone that I don't even know? I started to feel the sadness she felt.

I hug my legs and bury my head into my knees. A hand rested onto my back.

'Draco, Dragon , what's wrong' asked my mother as she rubbed my back in the soothing motherly way.

'What- if- she- doesn't- accept- me-' I gasped pulling my head up looking for air then sinking it back into my knees again.

'Dragon don't worry, no Malfoy looses their mate' I raised my head and my mother lent in giving me a kiss on the forehead 'Come on now, we're leaving for diagon alley shortly.' She handed me my blazer and headed to the fireplace.

I walked behind my mother and father as we walked done the Sandy stone path of diagon alley. The place was packed of families buying for their school supplies.

I kicked a sickle down the path my eyes following the coin to not paying attention to where I was walking. CLASH. Books were scattered and I brunette curly head stumbled for a fall. I caught her before she fell to the dusty ground. My head started to ache with buzzing.

'Malfoy?' Said a red headed silhouette. I look up to see Weasley number 6 look at the me and the girl I held. I help the brunette up and see Grangers face as she brushed the dust of her grey turtle neck and denim jeans.

'Sorry Granger, Weasley.' I start to pick up the books and handed them to Granger. Glancing at her face I noticed her features clearer. She was different but I could figure out how. The buzzing in my head became louder distracting me from focus.

'Thank you Malfoy' said an angelic voice. The girls brushed by me alone with the buzzing in my head.
