He leaned back, looking at her face again before his fingers slid under her chin, lifting it so she had no choice but to meet his eyes. "You love me." He said, shaking his head in mock sympathy. "& that's the most reckless thing you could've ever done." His grip tightened slightly under her jaw, not hard enough to hurt, just enough to remind her that he could. His thumb grazed her jaw, slower this time, respectful. "Love doesn't make me weak, baby. It makes me more dangerous. Because I love you back, meaning I now have something to lose." He leaned in until his lips hovered just above hers, their breath mingling. "& I don't like that. Not having shit to lose is what kept me untouchable, now I got a weakness & now we gotta die holding hands because you ain't doing this shit without me & I ain't doing it without you. So, Naytiri, you sure you wanna bleed for me?"

Hate that love can, get so dangerous

Draco gave a cocky grin. "I am going to give you a makeover." "I'm sorry what?" "You heard me Granger, I'm going to give you a makeover that will make every man want you,and make Weasley die of regret. You will be simply irresistible." Now Complete!

"Why would you do that for me?" She got curious, after all it hadn't made much sense. Aurelia and him had hated each other right at the start and she swore he wanted her dead, but now he was willing to put his whole into promising her things and promising her safety, but why did he care? Aurelia then stood up from her seat, he watched as she walked towards her vanity and leaned against it, awaiting his reply. He instead just looked over at her, thinking about what to say. Maybe he didn't know what to say? Maybe he was a little taken aback by the question. But Aurelia wanted to know, and she was confident she would find out. Damon thought about her question, it wasn't until that moment that he figured out why he did all of this. That was when it finally clicked, he stood up from his seat and made his way towards her, not taking his eyes off of hers as he did so. She shuffled a little in her stance as he was now close, very close. "I would do that for you" he began while placing either side of her, onto the variety's edge. "Because I care about you". // A story in which a young Aurelia finds herself meeting the alluding, mysterious vampire, Damon Salvatore. What starts off as a hatred and bitter relationship quickly snaps into something else, as emotions arise, Aurelia finds herself in imminent danger. How will she balance the pair?

Hermione knew she was good with kids, but this was beyond the pale. She had been called down to Emergency for a 6 month old infant boy, the original diagnosis was splinching as he had been apparated in with an injured adult but the minute Hermione looked at him she knew better and immediately cast the counter curse and began healing the open wound on the child's chest. Someone had cast a sectumsempra on him. What sort of person would do that to a baby? It couldn't have been an accident. The hit had been dead on and with a target that small it had to have been done on purpose.
