"For all of the light that I shut out,
For all of the innocent things that I've doubt,
For all of the bruises that I've caused and the tears,
For all of the things that I've done all these years,
Yeah, for all of the sparks that I've stomped out,
For all of the perfect things that I doubt..."

~excerpt:
How could Ginny do this to her? To her! They were supposed to be best friends, sisters even.
A hand wrapped around her wrist. "Go away Ginny." She bit the words out.
A low chuckle rumbled behind her. "Too bad I'm not the Potter." Why did he have to follow after her!
"Go away, Malfoy."
The hand dropped away from her wrist. "So, it's Malfoy again." The pain in his words brought Hermione to a halt.
"Why did you follow after me?" She whispered without turning around.
Draco chuckled and she could imagine him running his hand through his hair. "It's quite obvious why Ginny did this." Hermione turned around to look at him, stunned that he had called Ginny by her name. He brought his eyes to meet hers and laughed. "Apparently, not that obvious." He continued when she remained quiet. "She's playing matchmaker."
Ginny was doing what! Hermione was going to have to have a long chat with her friend. "I'll tell her to stop." She said tersely.
"Why?" Did he really just ask her why? He should be the one to know why, Hermione had told him the reason why they would never be together. Then she remembered his words from that day, he had told her that she was worth the wait.
