Wish I had an Angel

Hermione's heart was frozen. She had not slept all night, dry tears still in her eyes. She had met Ginny at Gryffindor tower. Telling her friend all that had transpired. Ginny went into a fit yelling about blond haired ferrets who couldn't keep it in their pants. Draco was not much better then Hermione. His heart ached as each class he saw her in, she still ignored him. Why wouldn't she see that Astoria had only done it to make sure a wedge was between them. He wanted to yell at Hermione, say that she had given his father what he wanted, a wedge between them. Albus and Minerva watched the head boy and girl in despair. Their golden Aura had dulled to a light yellow. Old Magic was funny this way, it brought soul mates together, but if they do not act on it or are separated, they it drains the life and magic out of them. Albus decided that if the problems between the two were not fixed by the end of the week then he would step in.

Draco sat at the Slytherin table, Astoria was next to him fawning over him. Bile came up his through listening to her. Did she not realize he hated her, didn't she realize that she was reminding of Pansy of his youth. Pansy was watching him with a sad look. She had grown up after the war, realizing that blood was not that important. But her like him was in the process of being married off by her parents. Unlike him, they were giving her a choice of pure blood. They must of been surprised when she choose the penniless Ron Weasly, Pansy wanted love and family in her marriage not just money and power. The contract between the two families had been written up and Ron was courting her. They would be married when they both turned twenty one. Giving them both some time to live their lives a little.

Hermione was torn, she realized that she had judged Draco to hard that night. But why couldn't he just stand up to his father, did money mean that much to him. More then she did, staring at the Slytherin Table she felt like going over there grabbing Astoria Greengrass by her perfect hair and smashing her head into the table. Realizing that Draco was staring at her as well Hermione glared at him dropping her gaze back down. No she wouldn't feel sorry for him, she would ignore how her heart and soul were burning from being away from him. No she would be strong.

The heads common room had become a place for both Draco and Hermione to avoid. The only time either would be in there was if a prefect or student need to see them both. It was on the third day of not talking that they found themselves in there together. Draco had enough and was waiting for Hermione to face her about it all. Hermione walked in and saw him him standing in front of her door. "Move Draco, I am tired and just want to go to sleep." She went to push past him, stopped by him grabbing her pressing his body against her looking into her eyes with a mad glint.

"Hermione, this has to stop. I love you, cant you feel the way our magic is suffering for us not being together, You are my soul mate. Your magic picked me and mine you, if we continue like this we will both die." Hermione struggled, feeling his legs against her. She felt her magic screaming out to his, wanting to join.

"I can't do this anymore Draco, everyone knows we are together and are fine with it. Why wont you just stand up to your father and tell him you want me. Does your inheritance mean more then I do?" Tears had start to fall from her eyes, Draco stood lost for words before using his hand to wipe the tears. "I don't care about my Inheritance, he will kill you to get you out of the picture, I could not bear for that to happen." Hermione gave a sigh leaning into his chest. "I have fought a war, been tortured and cut do you think I could not handle your father? I love you Draco and will be with you till the end of time, But I will not be the other woman when you marry Astoria just so your fears for my life can be over."

Draco understood what she said. "Either way your father will want me out of the picture, so make up your mind now or we will both just have to live with the fact that we cannot be together." Draco gave a groan, lifting her head he looked deep into her eyes. "We should just get married, elope in a wizarding ceremony then he cant force me to marry Astoria." Hermione knew this was the only way, "How though Draco, how will we do it as we are both still in school. I know we are old enough but who would want to bring the wrath of your father upon them to join us?" A cough from behind them made both teenagers jump and turn around to see the sparkling eyes of their headmaster.

"Well it just so seems that I am able to perform the ceremony you need, and I am most not scared of your father Draco considering I knew the man when he was a child." Draco smiled, looking back at Hermione. "Well then what do you think my lioness would you like to be the next Mrs Malfoy?" Hermione laughed feeling the heaviness that had been on her heart for days lift. "Hmm well I think I do Mr Malfoy." Draco gave a shout of joy lifting her and spinning her around kissing her hard.

"We will have the ceremony this Friday, it is a full moon you will both need to bring two people who will be witnesses they have to have a connection to you that is stronger then blood." Tipping his head the headmaster left the two lovers together. In their excitement all three never noticed that a fourth person had been standing outside the door with it opened just a crack. Astoria frowned knowing she need to get word to the Snr Malfoy before the two could elope. She would have Draco if it was the last thing she did.
