    The six bystanders waiting for Hermione to wake up. They sat in silence and waited for someone to talk.

Ron looked to Harry and he shrugged.

"Let's make one thing clear. From now on, let's mind our own business when it comes to a relationship." Pansy said sighing.

"Agreed." Ginny said leaning her head on Harry's shoulder.

"She'll be okay though right?" Ron asked.

"I don't know how sick she was. But i'm sure she'll be fine, yeah."

Ginnys head popped up.

"She pretended to be better! That's what it was...I thought she was fine..." She gasped.

Then her guilt set in. "I can't believe i did this to her." She whispered.

"I mean it in someway makes sense," Theo spoke up.

"theo!" Pansy and Blaise said in unison. He shrugged.

"Look, they had fine intentions. They should've told Draco she was alive...and not covered their tracks so well. But seriously, they thought she was in actual danger."

I guess in a way it did make sense. It still doesn't redeem them though.

Draco started at her intently. He was so angry. Angry that they kept her away from him, angry she pretended to get better when she was sick, angry that he didn't think of the wealeys first.

He ran his thumb over her hand a few times wondering if that would lull her awake. Her face was so peaceful, and relaxed.

Her lips were parted open, as she breathed softly. He closed his eyes and took a deep breath to calm himself down.

"Draco?" He heard a whisper. His eyes shot open to Hermione waking up. Her eyebrows were burrowed as if she was in pain. He smiled, a real smile. Together again. Finally.

"Madame Pomfrey!" Draco called over his shoulder.

"Draco?" She repeated and he looked toward her, to see her looking back at him with watery eyes.

"I'm right here." He said gripping onto her hand tighter. She smiled a bit before wincing in pain.

Madame Pomfrey began assessing Hermione and treating her with healing potions.

"You're okay, Mione. I promise." He said kissing her forehead. She held his face and dragged her thumb along his cheek softly.

"I missed you." She whispered and Draco laughed. She had no idea. She smiled softly and didn't lift her eyes off of him.

"What's wrong love?" He asked staring at her confused.

"I don't want to forget your face." She whispered. He kissed her forehead again. Madame Pomfrey awaited them to be finished.

"So you are not contagious, and you are on the way  to recovery. However, you are not to return to classes for a while." Hermiones eyes grew wide.

"Why can't I go to classes?" She gasped. Draco noticed her eyes becoming glassy. Madame Pomfrey didn't know how to calm
her down.

"You need to rest hun...You already are getting better...but you need to truly recover." Hermione looked up at her, with her mouth open, tears streaming down her face.

She looked to Draco.

"No classes?" She whispered. Draco tried to hide his amusement by hugging her. This would be a dream to everyone else. She shook in his arms.

"I just want to go back to normal." She said through her cry's.

"They will...hey this probably means we can stay in our suite." Draco said trying to cheer her up. She nodded and wiped her tears.

"I don't want to see anyone today. I can't face them Draco." She said looking up at him. He smirked and nodded.

Madame Pomfrey came back and gave Hermione healing medicines before she went on her way.

"Oh, Madame Pomfrey? Is there any other exit then the front doors." Madame Pomfrey sighed and nodded.

Draco carried Hermione because she jumped out of a bloody window and sprained her foot. She laughed when he mumbled that to himself.

Madame pomfrey led them to a set of stairs that would take them to the fifth floor. Draco thanked her.

"Oh please let the others know."

When Draco and Hermione had reached their suite Hermione felt more relaxed.

"I can't believe we're together again." She whispered when he set her down softly in the bed.

"I know we can talk about it later, I need a nap." He said walking around the other side of the bed and got in himself.

He brought Hermione close to him, and snuggled in.

"That's better." He said before the two of them fell into a deep sleep. Hermione felt home.

"Thank you," Draco heard in his dream. It was her parents again. He saw her mother and father appear out of the white clouds smiling.

"You saved her. Tell her love her, and treat her well. But we see far from now, that you will."

They disappeared and Draco smiled in his sleep.

Only a few hours later, Draco woke back up. Hermione was still asleep, but she was beginning to wake up too.

Draco smiled at her and made sure her foot was elevated.

She took a deep breath and looked at Draco making sure she was comfortable.

"Thanks," She said smiling, and Draco looked up at her. He walked over to her and smoothed her hair down. Her eyes never left his face.

He kissed her forehead, then her lips. Her hands traveled through his hair, as his fingers rested on her face.

"We should give you your medicine." Draco said breaking from their electric kiss. Hermione was blushing and nodded.

She closed her eyes and casted a spell to fix her foot. It hurt for a second, then immediately felt better. Draco came back into the room with medicine and tea.

Hermione was stretching her foot and removed the pillow from underneath of it.

Draco put her stuff on her bedside table, and handed her the medicine.

She took it quickly then, she started to become emotional.

"Draco?"' She said blinking back tears. He looked to see her staring up at the ceiling. He hummed in response.

"I..." she whispered, not even being able to speak the words she wanted to say.

"Look at me granger." He whispered, he recognized this as a panic attack. She stared into his cool grey eyes, and felt better instantly.

"I don't think its over." She whispered. He burrowed his eyebrows.

"What's not over?"

"War." She whispered.
