Malfoy's Gryffindor

The battle of Hogwarts

You both look at each other.
 

"A battle at Hogwarts." You say, with your eyebrows knitted together.
You miss your friends with all of your heart, but you needed Draco.
 

"Will we go?"
"And if we do, what side will we fight for?"
 

You look into Draco's icy blue eyes and lean into him. "I think we should go and fight."
"Alongside our friends." Draco finishes.

When the day of the battle comes around, you pace anxiously around the house. Voldemort will be there. He'll see Draco and be furious. He might kill him. You might not be there to protect him.
  

Draco might get hurt. You could never live on if he died. You knew it.
 

"Maybe this was a bad idea." You say aloud.
Draco walks into the room and hugs you tightly.
 

"We don't have to do it if you don't want to beautiful."
"I want to. But, I don't want you to get hurt."
He smiles. "I won't. I promise y/n."

You land inside the castle, in a deserted Slytherin common room. The barricades around Hogwarts must of been destroyed. You can hear screams and battle sounds around you and you look into Draco's icy blue eye's once more.
"Stay with me."
"Always."

And you walk out into the battle field. Immediately you get hexed, but you fend it off with a wave of your wand.
You and Draco stand back to back as you fire spells out towards your enemies.
You see Zoe in the distance, fighting with Hermione and your heart swells. You missed them so much. But you cant see them, you must stay focused.
In your slight distracted moment, you get caught with a hex and feel blood trickle down your face. But you continue on, holding in your scream of pain.
After only twenty minutes of fending and attacking, everything stops.
The Death Eaters retreat as you hear a message from Voldemort himself.
He had summoned Harry to meet him in the Forbidden Forest.

Later on, you're standing in the Great Hall which has been transformed into a make-shift hospital.
You see the Weasley's surrounding a body on the floor and Hermione comforting Ron. You can't help but feel sorry for them.

You see him. Voldemort. He's standing in front of his army of Death Eaters. You're in the crowd of students and teachers with Draco pulling you close to his side.

"HARRY POTTER IS DEAD!" He exclaims in a loud, ominous voice.
Several shrieks of pain.

You see Ginny Weasley cry and try to run out to the limp body in Hagrid's arms. She's restrained by three students.

The army in front of you rejoices. As you hear people cry around you. Even though you knew he was going to sacrifice himself, you still felt your heart drop.

But then, just as Voldemort is about to go for another tortuous round, Harry falls to the ground and sprints behind a podium.
Gasps fill the courtyard but they are faint, and your vision is blurred. You feel arms wrap around you and your weight being lifted, but not much else before everything goes dark.

You wake up on a cool hard surface. You sit up groggily to see Draco holding your hand, Hermione beside him, Zoe holding your other hand and Harry standing above.
You grin.

"Here we are again."
Draco kisses your hand.
"What happened?" You ask.

"Voldemort's dead." Hermione says gloomily.
You look around at the sombre faces. You see Draco has slightly red eyes.
"Isn't that a good thing?"

"It is, Blake. But there's.. there's something you need to see."
Draco helps you up and you follow your friends through the Great Hall. Bodies are scattered across the floor, and people are being healed as you walk down the isle.
You heart is in your throat, as the suspense of bad news threatens to hit you. You know it's bad. But what happened?
Draco stops you short and holds your hand.
"I'm so sorry y/n." Harry says.

you see lupin and tonks, dead. You were always very close to him .You look down to see them.

Lying there. On the ground.
Holding hands.
Your stomach drops.
Things feel faint.
You cry out as you kneel beside them. True pain, greater than the Crucio curse, comes upon you.
Finn and Del are dead.
You sob uncontrollably as you see their lifeless figures. Draco crouches beside you and hugs you. Zoe and Hermione joins in and you all cry together.

You lean against the cool stone outside and breathe in the fresh air. Draco's on one side of you, and Zoe and Hermione are on the other.
The mist settles around the ground far below as you sniff.

"What a day." Zoe says quietly.
You find the power to smile a little.

"What a life." Hermione embellishes.

As you stand there, with your boyfriend and your two best friends, you know, that although they aren't now, things will be fine.
"What a life indeed."
