Draco's POV:

I sit up and rub my eyes. I look over and see Raiden sleeping soundly. She's beautiful when she's sleeping. I kiss her lightly in the forehead as my owl flies in. I grab the envelope from him. It's green. Riddle.

I read it over, I look back at Raiden, who adjusts slightly, biting down gently on her lip. I can't let her see this. This is horrible. Is the dark lord making him do this?

What if I did give it to her though? I could then be the one who is there for her when he's not. I fold it back up and set it next to her. I write my own letter.

'Riddle,
Breaking up with her over parchment? Pathetic. Me and Raiden are going to he getting back together. You need to back off and never send to her again. Because I'll get it before she does. And I'll burn it. I love her and you don't. Hurting her was a mistake. Send another letter and I'll kill you for it. -D.M.'

I send it proudly. I hear a whimper come from Raiden as she wakes. I speed back to bed, closing my eyes.

Is father coming back today? I hope not.

"Draco?" Raiden asks. I don't answer. There's silence for a moment, but then I hear her open the letter.

"What the fuck?" She asks.

I shake awake, turning to her. "What's wrong?" I ask.

Her jaw is dropped as tears rush from her eyes. "Something happened. We have to go help him, Dray," she pleads. Dray, she hasn't called me that in forever.

"Why?" I ask, trying my best to sound worried.

"He wrote this break up letter, we have to go and-" She hurries.

I snatch the paper away from her. I should've watched for it. "We can't do that," I say, "he's with the dark lord,"

"I don't care, Draco!" She objects.

"You're not going on a suicide mission for a guy that just broke up with you!" I argue.

"I'll forgive you. Draco, I'll forgive you for all of it if you just, please, come with me to get Mattheo," She begs, "I need him,"

I need you.

"Really?" I ask.

"Really," She says, she's telling the truth, I can tell.

I'd never risk my life for Riddle, but for Raiden, I'd risk my life any day.

"Deal," I'm an idiot for her.
