>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Chapter 6

((small time skip))

I climb up on the edge of the Astronomy tower, contemplating death. It could be all over in an instant you know. The view from up here is beautiful.  I fling my feet over the edge and sit down. I am so far up, and it is such a long drop. Everything's so fragile. I could put one foot off of this ledge, and everything could be over in an instant. Does he not realize that? Do I even realize that? I'm not so sure that I even want to. I hear foot steps in the distance. They draw closer. They're quick. Someone is coming fast. They echo through the tower. Couldn't they just stop and appreciate the silence? I turn my head just as soon as they stop. I stare into these beautiful green eyes as I have many times before. The same emerald green eyes I've fallen for since 1st year. He's frozen in shock, or maybe its fear? Me too. I don't care if I'm scared. I care about my happiness after this is over. I want to get one last look. His hair is Jet black and messy. His robes are the perfect color to enhance the green in his eyes. Harry Potter is just simply perfect.

 I slowly turn my head back around. I'm done. I don't want to live like this anymore. The absolute truth is I'm not okay. I was never okay. I'm not scared anymore. The truth in the matter is that I am terrified. I, Draco Malfoy, am absolutely terrified. I'm horrifed of what I have let myself become. I pull of my robes, revealing my wounds. I look over my shoulders towards Harry with tears in my eyes. Suck it up Malfoy, you're doing this to yourself. No one else. I try to figure out exactly how high up I am. Pretty high. If I were to jump, it would kill me for sure. So what am I waiting for? I-. Potter grabs my arm and yanks me back. damnit. Fuck him. I was thinking for too long. I didn't hear him walking. The sneak. I yell out and fall to my knees. Harry kneels down straight in front of me.

- "I can't do this anymore." I sob "Fuck you. Leave me be."

I turn away. I don't want Harry to see how blotchy my face is. He grabs my arm and I flinch. He looks at my arm carefully and runs his pointer finger along a few cuts.

-"Stop it, please." I whisper in defeat.

Harry looks up at me. He cups my face in his hands, looking me in the eyes.

-"Don't ever do that again." He says. I look down.

-"I can't promise anything." He looks at me disappointed for a split second, still cupping my face. Suddenly, he throws his arms around me.

- "Potter-" I croak out. I attempt to hug back, but he's squeezing me so tight that I can barely move.

-"Harry" He corrects

He grabs my left arm again, but this time very delicately. Almost as if I may shatter. I feel my face get hot and shift my eyes. He looks up at me with a mixture of awe and concern.

"wh-what?" I stutter and adjust my position I'm sitting in.

- "Promise me that you'll never do this ever again Draco" he softens his tone, "were you really going to kill yourself?"

I look down at my hands not knowing what to say.

-" Please don't ever try to hurt yourself Draco, I..." He tenses "I need you here."

- "Oh right. because the boy who lives needs me" I say quietly and motion to the mess he calls Draco.

A look of hurt spreads across Harry's face.

- "I'm sorry" I mumble, "I just don't understand why you would need me, there's nothing special about me." I speak just barely audible.

Harry attempts a weak smile. I know that he's trying. I know that I'm being difficult. I know that I can be hard to help. However; I don't know why he wants to help me. I don't know what kind of interest he has in me. Look at me. I'm a mess. I don't even know myself.

-"Draco. " He somehow reads my thoughts. "Don't ever think that you're not lovable. Who told you that? Stop thinking that. Of course I need you. Why wouldn't I? I think you're more than you present yourself to be."
I'm really not. He continues.
"I couldn't live with myself if you had ended your life, knowing that I could have done something. You're perfect. Draco Malfoy you are perfect. No matter what you tell yourself."
