I felt the world go fuzzy.

"Juliet!" True yelled with a concerned voice. That was the last thing I heard before I went into the darkness again.

My head was silent. There was a soft buzz in my head that was calming me.

Then I heard a voice.

A soothing voice.

A voice that I had thought I had lost a couple of days ago.

A voice that made my face brighten up just at the sound.

Draco's voice.

This couldn't be.

Draco was gone.

"Hey, Juliet, m' lady, are you there?" I heard him say. He would never stop trying.

I didn't ask. I was happy to have Draco back.

I jumped up and threw my hands around Draco.

"I thought I had lost you," I exclaimed to him.

"I guess you can never get rid of me, can you?" He replied. He had tired eyes. That was just like Draco, laughing something serious off.

I laughed. At that moment I would be "his girl" if he wanted to. It was the best thing in the world to have him back.

"Where were we, before we were rudely interrupted?" He asked

"I believe we were about to go look for our light," I responded

"Well then, shall we continue looking for it?"

"We shall." I didn't tell him about how me and True found the journal. How the whole thing was a mess. I just followed him to the room.

The door was closed. It looked untouched.

Strange.

The door opened with a creak.

We went inside.

It was all clean.

Not a speck of debris. Not a piece of rubble.

What was going on?

"Where did all the rubble from the bomb go?" I wondered

Draco looked confused. "What bomb?" Did he not remember?

"The one that blew up this whole place. The one that made us look to the stars." He looked at me weird.

"Doesn't ring a bell." What?!? "I think you are going mad from not finding the light." He joked.

I played along. "I guess I am." I forced a fake laughed. He was the one that didn't remember. I was sure of that. "Well then let us find the light as quickly as possible."

We crept through the room. I was careful about where I stepped. I didn't need the whole thing to be ruined again.

"I think we found our light m' lady," Draco told me while looking at something. I followed his eyes.

It was the box.

We ran to the box.

Draco looked at the box and frowned.

"Looks like the light will have to wait," Draco said, "There is a code needed to open."

"I don't think it will have to wait that long, I know the code."

Draco looked at me curiously.

"How do you know the code?" I didn't know what to say.

"I just do," I said quickly and focused my attention on the lock, "Trust me."
