"So you're just gonna go around telling everyone? Possibly get us killed?" Draco scoffed. I stood up and walked towards him.

"I'm trying to help us. And everyone here." I whispered.

"How exactly? He keeps coming back, I don't see a way to stop him."

"I want to break out sire.... and... wait!" I spun around and hurried back down. "I have an idea!" I smiled.

"What is it?" Hermione asked.

"So, Voldemort wants Dumbledore killed, he wants Draco and I to kill him, we are working on the vanishing cabinet so that other death eaters can get here so they can watch us kill him, but there would be no point for us to keep working on it if we say we already killed him!"

"How would that work?" Draco asked. I turned my head to look at him.

"We transfer Dumbledore into someone else's body, temporarily and then once we give the death eaters proof he's dead, we bring him back and put him back into his body!"

"Y/n! You're a genius!" Hermione said as she clapped her hands.

"Y/n- that's an amazing idea but if it fails and Voldemort finds out, he'll kill you and I can't deal with that." Draco whispered. I looked over at him and frowned.

"But if it works?" I bounced my eyebrows.

"Well then..." He sighed, no words.

"We could build up a small 'army' of people like adults and when it's our time to kill him, we'll just kill the death eaters that came to watch." I whispered.

"Both are great ideas! But there's so much we need to find out before we just go with it." Hermione whispered. "Like we need to figure out how to break the sire first."

"Good point." I whispered.

"So, is everyone in for whatever we have to do?" Harry asked.

"I am." I said.

"Me too." Hermione smiled.

We all looked over at Draco.

He scoffed. "I'm in but if something happens to Y/n, I'm killing you both." He whispered.

I jumped up from the floor and ran up to him, locking my arms around his neck.

"Thank you." I whispered next to his ear. He wrapped his arms around my waist and dropped his head into my neck.

"I'm not giving up." He whispered.

"Now that we have plan, we should head off and meet up sometime this week and looks through the books." Hermione whispered.

"Ok, thank you." I said as I didn't move.

"We need to talk." He whispered. I leaned out.

"Yeah, we do..."

"I love you. You might think I'm not capable but there is no one that has ever made me feel so wanted and I just get so jealous when you talk to other boys because I feel like you see things in them you wish you saw in me. I never liked Astoria, in fifth year you were the girl I was talking about in the astronomy tower but I made it seem like it was Astoria because I feared that you didn't like me, I thought you hated me and I thought it would make you-" He sighed.

"I don't know, want me... I slept with her twice and there's nothing I regret more than that, I should've waited for you... she forced me into 'dating' her when you were gone. She said she would tell people about Leo and I didn't care what happened to me but I love you and I thought you'd understand that it was for you. I looked for so long after you disappeared but she kept threatening but I still looked, I looked everywhere, I never gave up hope and then that day I saw you in the mirror, the day we were to see each other, I saw Blaise and I thought you replaced me... Then I saw you right infront of me the same day, the feeling of relief once you kissed me, there was nothing I would've rather have done at that moment.

Then she came, and I couldn't stand up to her because you were actually there and I knew it would take one word for her to just tell everyone. She forced me to sit with her the ride to sixth year. She kept threatening and it makes me sound like a shit person but I knew that I would rather have you alive and think I don't love you than you be in Azkaban. I'm nothing but honest to you anymore, I want to change, I want to get married and have kids and do all that, with you. I'm sorry about all the times I've hurt you. I overthink everything and I just fear you might throw me out." He didn't stutter, not once.

I stared into his eyes, my mouth wide as I tried to comprehend everything.

"But if you don't want to give me another chance, I won't argue, I've hurt you so much... I promise I won't hurt you again, I promise. I mean it this time, I promise." He whispered, pushing hair behind my ear.

"I love you, Draco. I'll give you another chance but if you fuck up-" He cut me off.

"I won't! I promise!" He had a wide smile as he cupped my face and kissed me. I pulled out and smiled.

"I want you promising me with your ring finger because that finger connects with the heart." I whispered.

He chuckled and wrapped his ring finger with mine.

"I promise." He whispered.

"I promise as well." I whispered back.
