24. The Death

"Harry? Do you think we should inform Draco about....you know...that's she's here.", Ginny said as she sat down next to Harry on the couch.

Harry pulled her into his arms and sighed.

" I don't think so. He probably knows that's she's here or else he would have contacted us."

Ginny's eyes widened as if a sudden realisation had just hit her.

" Harry! What if he isn't okay ?!", she asked in a hushed yell.

" Oh come on Gin, he's a man. ", Harry chuckled.

" Men feel pain too!", Ginny scolded.

" I'm going to check on him!", she said as she got up.

" Oh no no no-", Harry grabs her hand. "- you aren't going anywhere Mrs. Potter. I'll ask Zabini. "

" Then do it right now.", Ginny glared at him.

Harry puts up his hands in surrender.

"Going, woman."

******

"Evening Pansy.", Harry greeted her as she opened the door further to let him in.

"Everything alright ?", she asked almost immediately sensing something was wrong.

" Er actually I was hoping if you guys could go and check up on Draco. I mean I would do it myself but it would look too suspicious. So if you would...", Harry trailed off.

" Wait wait wait. What do you mean by 'check up on Draco'? What have you done?", she narrowed her eyes at him.

" Hey hey. It wasn't me. It's just that....er Hermione came to us."

"So?.... Wait. you don't mean that she left him do you ?!", she almost screeched.

"That's exactly what I meant Pansy. "

Harry didn't even get time to register what had happened when he suddenly felt the familiar pull of apparation.

They landed in Draco's garden and Pansy sighed when she saw that the lights were on.

Draco's home at least.

They knocked but there was no reply. Pansy looked at Harry who shrugged. She tried again, harder this time, but still nothing. She was growing impatient now. This so wasn't like Draco.

" Draco!", she tried.

But nothing.

Harry pulled her back and muttered alohomora but the door didn't budge.

Pansy rolled her eyes at him and gave him a look that clearly said. Really, Potter ?

She held up her wand and mumbled Bombarda. The door blasted into pieces and Pansy held onto Harry's arm unconciously as they entered the house.

Knock knock knock

"Hermione! It's me. Ginny."

"Come in.", came her muffled reply.

Ginny entered and sighed. Hermione was curled up into a ball on the bed and was crying. Her sobs could be heard and Ginny felt tears forming in her eyes.

" Mione.", she walked closer to the bed and then sat down.

"Why did you leave him?", she asked her.

Hermione looked up and hugged her immediately.

"Oh Gin, I didn't want to. N-not now not ever. But...but I couldn't just..o god....... this hurts! He....He loves....Ginny....he's in love. ", she cries and Ginny could feel the wetness on her blouse now.
