"Hope I'm not interrupting anything." Seamus said clearing his throat. Draco and Hermione's eyes grew wide as there cheeks turned varying shades of red.
'Damn it Seamus ' draco thought, slightly pulling away from Hermione.
" you...you should really get some rest." Draco said standing up. Akwardly glancing around avoiding her eyes.
"Your right, though I don't think I'm going to class tomorrow  there's just to much, I'll have lavender bring my asiments or something. The headmaster should understand." Hermione said collecting her books and strewn papers. " night boys."
"Night." They both said simultaneously. As soon as Hermione was up in her dorm and out of ear shoot Seamus grabbed draco by the collar practically  dragging him down to the hospital wing.
Draco wanted to just stay in the common room with Hermione, it was something he wanted deep in his soul. A type of want that fills your every thought a type of want so powerful that it makes you feel absolute terrible about reality, a type of want where you know its impossible but you still have never wanted anything more in your life. This was Draco's current struggle. One of many. though everyone has some sort of struggle, its weather or not you let that struggle control you or not that makes you strong.
The two boys snuck into the hospital wing. Seamus stormed over still having tight hold of Draco, whose thoughts were bubbling with ooey gooey mush that comes with being a teenager, the want that comes along. Seamus was almost literally shaking it out of him, with the push he gave when they arrived at pyras bed. He flew open the curtains.
Draco stopped and furrowed his brows, none of this made any sense. His attention was finally in the present. The ooey goo was gone. The real world was here.
The two boys stood in silence before the floating girl. The sweet smoke still drifted off her body. Sea!us let him gawk at her for a bit then finally spoke.
" she loves you, ya know. If what she did for you wasn't out of love then I don't know what love is." Seamus said, it was something he obviously thought about often but only now did he dare speak it out loud.
" that's the thing I don't get why did she do this for me. I don't even know what this is! I love her too i guess, but like a sister." Draco blurted, louder then he imagined.
" I didnt expect you to understand. I only ask that your here for her when she wakes up, if that day ever comes. Times like these though are when I doubt she will ever come back." Seamus said calmly.
" before you say anything more, I want you to explain to me what exactly pyra did for me because I can't be greatful without knowing why."
Seamus nodded.
" dragons are tricky beasts specially she-dragons. Their powers seem almost limitless, with there pyramancy, strength, wit, shape shifting ability. But what most people don't know is that theirs an ancient form of sorcery that the dragons created its name long forgotten. A form of sorcery where one can take the pain, ailments, memorys, and suffering of others. Then place these burdens within themselves, once within them they can attempt to eradicate these....problems. Trying to destroy these tings though take all their effort, causing them to go into a coma like state. What she is covered in are creatures called fire dwelling salamanders, in her moments before her coma she called ta them for strength so they encased her like a suit of armor. Giving their lives to protect Her." Seamus said stepping closer to the hospital bed
Draco looked down at his feet.
" so what your saying is, that pyra took the werewolf out of me, and placed it within herself to destroy it."
Seamus nodded once again.
" what if pyra...." Draco looked back up to her sorrow in his eyes.
" what if pyra can't destroy the werewolf, well then here she will lay until she can, fighting for the rest of eternity. That's why no one ever uses this magic, its fairly easy to be trapped in your own body forever. Well that and the fact that you need to be a dragon." Seamus said nervously laughing.
The two boys looked upon her in silence, draco secretly wished Hermione was there. So that he could deal with this with him. So she could make him feel less guilty. He began to lightly hum.
" how do you know that song?" Seamus said quietly.
" its the one she sang to me that night in some foreign language. I think It was a spell of some sort, I'm not sure." Draco said not looking seamus in the eye.
" me mum used to sing it to me when I was younger. Its an old Scottish lullaby. Here hum again." Seamus seemed excited as he recalled the tune.
Draco began to hum louder.
Seamus began to sing cheerfully. His his voice was warm and full of pride. Draco smirked as he hummed laughing at seamus.

"Go north, go north with wings on your feet.

Go north with the wind where the three rivers meet.

There's a clearing of sorts in the circle of trees.

Where the wild constellations shine one two and three.

Look around, look around, look around you and see

deep in the forest, there dragons will be."

Two beams of golden light broke through the darkness.  She had awoken.
