River's POV
"Draco stop it!" I yelled but he only stared at me his face emotionless "Draco!" I tried to grab his arm but he grabbed my wrist instead and twisted it before shoving me back "no you stop it River" he spat his voice full of venom "you must think that I'm stupid... you must think that I am a fool" he whispered and I stared at him taking a step back "no... Draco what are you talking about?" I asked my eyes wide; my heart breaking. I took a step towards him and his bottom lip quivered and he shook his head holding his hand out as if to stop me  "I'm never going to let you close to me" I frowned "Draco, why? What's happened? Did I do something" Draco just shook his head taking another step back his hand now shaking "even though you mean the most to me... because every time I open up it hurts" I watched as he slowly broke in front of me "why are you so worried? I won't ever hurt you! You mean the world to me draco!" He continued to stare at the ground his shaking gradually getting worse "in case you go and leave me in the dark" I shake my head "Draco I won't ever leave you" he took a step towards me breathing heavily "I'm sorry river... you mean the world to me but..." he swallowed hard before looking back up at me his face contorting into a sneer  "baby we don't stand a chance..." a tear steamed down my cheek my heart breaking. "What's happened? What's made you think this... have I done anything? Draco tell me!" He stared at me his blue eyes now clouded over with sadness "I know you're thinking I'm heartless... I know you're thinking I'm cold... I'm just protecting my innocence... I'm just protecting my soul..." I shook my head watching as he straightened himself up and buttoned his jacket up. He turned around his shoulders shaking slightly "I'm way too good at goodbyes" he said his voice cracking "b-but Draco... what did I do?" I asked staring at the back of his head "nothing river..." he started walking to the edge of the astronomy tower "Draco don't do it!" He looked at me a sad smile on his face "I'm way too good at goodbyes" he sighed and stared down at the ground below him. I walked towards him my mind baffled but my heart aching for this lost soul. I walked towards him until my arm brushed with his arm. I slowly slipped my hand into his and he tensed up but soon enough relaxed "don't do it" I said staring up at the moon "god this reminds me of when we were young..." Draco said sadly and I looked at him "don't change the subject Draco... don't do it" I said my grip tightening on his hand "let me help... you're stuck" he looked at me "no I'm not" I sighed "yes you are..." he ripped his hand out of mine and glared at me "no! I'm not!" He yelled and I stared at him "you're a lost soul... dray" his head shot up and he looked at me his eyes wide "my dad" Draco whimpered and I gripped his arm gently before pulling him away from the edge "tell me what happened" I said quietly but all he did was shake his head "I can't" I looked into his eyes before pulling him into my arms gripping him tight. He held me tight instantly cracking. "He made me..." he breathed heavily "he made you..." I whispered trying to get him to open up "dark mark" he said his breathing getting ragged "it's okay" I whispered wrapping my arms around him again. I ran my fingers through his hair trying to soothe him "r-river... I'm... I'm not good at goodbyes" he whispered and I frowned "dray what do you mean?" He slowly pulled away his eyes filled with fire. "I can't be with you anymore... y-you're slowly killing me... I hate you... but I love you... I have to hate you but I can't!" I frowned "this is forced... from your dad... right?" I asked gently and he nodded slowly "it's fine" I caressed his cheek before stepping closer to him; kissing his cheek. "Tell your dad you broke up with me but tell him I'm staying your friend. I'll write to you every Saturday. I love you Draco Lucius Malfoy" he smiles tears welling up in his eyes "I love you too... River... my river" I held his face in my hands "forever dray..." I pulled away and smiled before walking away staring down at the ground. Lucius malfoy can't control his son and he can't control me. One way or another I will always stay with Draco.
