Forever and Always: Book 1 Of Always

Forever and Always

Draco PoV

           I sat in the hospital wing and watched Rebecca while she slept. At that moment, I felt that nothing would be able to keep her away from me but I was wrong.

           She had been bruised, and her soul had been almost sucked out and I couldn't do anything.

           It was strange how peaceful she looked. 

           I whispered, "I love you, Ginger, and I know you'll wake up soon."

           "Is that right?" said a voice from behind me.

          I turned around and found what I had hoped never would be here with me and Rebecca.

          "I knew you had feelings for this girl and I thought if I arranged a marriage for you, you would lose your silly feelings for her. I can't have you ruining the family by being with this filth that is as well property of the Dark Lord. If you don't end things with her, I wouldn't be opposed to causing things to happen to her, " said my father.

         I looked at Rebecca and saw my father's hand wrap around her neck and her struggle.

         I yelled, "If you are so worried about your precious lord then you can't kill her and she isn't Voldemort's property. She is no one's property."

         "You will respect your future master and respect your father. I may not be able to kill her but I can change her mind and make her hate you, give her night terrors, cause her to kill herself, or maybe even torture her."

         I stared at my father and nodded, "I will never respect you after this but for her I'll do anything."

        "Good, break up with her, once she wakes up," and he left.

Rebecca PoV

         I woke up to yet again...the hospital wing. I looked to the side and as usual Draco was crying next to the bed.

         I laughed, "How long was I out this time?"

         He replied, "Only a day."

         "Usually you're talkative when I wake up what is wrong?"

           Draco looked at me and shed another tear, "I love you, Rebecca. I really do but I can't be with you."

           I laughed, "Your joking, right... right?"

           Draco looked at me and shook his head, "I can't now or ever be with you. Maybe in another world but in this one I'm a Malfoy and your..." He let a tear out and I could tell he didn't want to say what he was going to, "filth."

           He turned around and left the hospital wing even though I was calling after him. 

           He looked back at me one last time and whispered, "I'll love you forever and always, Ginger."

          Why would he do that to me? I love him and he loves me but he won't stay with me. I realized though that there was one reason he didn't want me.... I was a filthy little halfblood and I'd never be good enough. 

         I sat on the edge of the bed and cried, the tears never stopping.

         That is the end of Prisoner of Askaban and the first book of the Always series. Check out my profile for the second book: Love, Loss, and the Unknown.
