I apparated at godric's hollow where 'I' was buried. I shook my head walking inside the cementery my hands tucked in my pockets as I drew out a shaky breath. Walking in my headstone to deliver some flowers. But I was stopped to see a platinum blond haired man sitting infront of my tombstone drinking some butterbeer. I heard him sniffing mumbling something under his breath.

"Draco? What are you doing here?" I asked him, He jumped a little looking towards me

"I should be the one asking you that question why are you here?" He snapped

"Er- Harry asked me to deliver some flowers for her. Dumbledore can't let him visit Mavis' grave for his safety" I said coolly his expression hardened on the mention of Harry's name

"Yeah right Potter, that stupid bloke who can't even protect his cousin from dying" He scoffed taking a swig from the butterbeer he had brought. I sighed laying the flowers next to my headstone looking at Draco

"Well let me tell you a story" I said smiling sitting beside him "Mavis, whom I really don't know personally saved Sirius Black's life. Your aunt Bellatrix was aiming for Sirius but She jumped infront of him taking the spell."

"How could you know all of this?"

"The twins were at the ministry too, they followed Mavis but it was already too late." I said frowning

"Potty was just standing there beside her doing nothing!" He argued

"Harry didn't just stood there and did nothing! He was fighting with several death eaters" I shot back glaring at him

"How could you know Weasel? You weren't there you sod! You were back there living your life back wherever you are 7 months ago! You weren't the one who died!" He snapped glaring back

"You're wrong! You don't know where I was during that time! You didn't know what I was doing you dumb fuck!" The two of us stood taking our wands out

"You don't even respect her!" He spat venomously

"for your information you're the one who's making out with other people while she's not been dead for a year!" And by that Draco shot a spell almost hitting me an inch

"You little ferret!" I hissed "stupefy!" He ducked under a tombstone hitting the stone

"Flipendo!"

"Levicorpus!"

"Crucio!" He yelled hitting me. I screamed in agony as I felt thousands of knives torturing me inside. My head thumping as I crumpled into the ground screaming in pain.

Kill me I thought as my body felt like it was being thrown over the fire as knives plunged in my skin. My eyesight became blurry as I blacked out

Draco

She screamed in pain once the unforgivable curse hit her square in her chest she crumpled in the ground trashing in the ground begging for mercy. My eyes widened when her features were changing. I ran beside her as soon as she blacked out. I gasped at her appearance as my heart stopped beating.

"Mavis?" I said in disbelief as I blinked a couple of times

How could this happen? She's dead! She was hit by the killing curse! This is impossible. How could someone play a cruel joke on me? How could be the girl I loved the most be here?

I pinched myself a couple of times before I came into realisation that she was real. That Mavis was alive. And it also hit me that I almost killed her.

I almost killed her.

"Oh God Mavis I'm so sorry" I choked back in tears as I carrying her bridal style And apparated into the Weasley Wheezes. I bursted into the front door seeing the Weasley twins talking to their cashier.

"Malfoy? Who are you carrying?" Fred's eyes darted into Mavis' body. The twins eyes widened as I cried

"Help me! I don't know what happened it just it just" I sobbed as Fred carried her away rushing into their flat I was about to follow them when George attacked me pinning me into the wall

"What the bloody hell did you do?!" He snarled as his wand was pushed into my neck

"It wasn't! It was an accident! I didn't knew it was her!"

"You great sod!" He bellowed "You're hurting her while all we do is to protect her from being harmed are you fucking kidding me? What spell did you used Malfoy?" He demanded, I know that I was already dead if I told them

"WHAT SPELL?!" He bellowed as he gritted his teeth in anger

"I'm so sorry" I sobbed out

"There's no such thing as an I'm so sorry spell you rascal!" He snarled

"I performed the cruciatus curse!" I blurted out "She was she was I didn't know! I didn't mean it we were duelling in Godric's hollow!" George's fists collided in my jaw as I was thrown into the ground

"George!" Fred called out stopping his twin

"He deserved it Fred!" George yelled at his twin "He performed the cruciatus curse on her!"

"He did WHAT?!" Fred bellowed as he grabbed me by the collar strangling me

"Listen here Malfoy, touch her again and I'll swear I'll use the killing curse on you!" He said in a low tone as his expression darkened "You didn't know how much she has suffered while she was on disguise"

"I really didn't know" I sobbed while Fred released me his eyes still glued on me

"Ofcouse you didn't" Fred and George chorused scoffing at me I looked down ashamed of what I have done to her, to all the things that I have done.

"We don't want to see your face ever again Malfoy" George warned as he shoved me to the door

"But I want to see her-"

"You won't" Fred said coldly "You're not going to be seeing her in Hogwarts either. Good luck on that Malfoy" He sneered slamming the door in my face as the two went upstairs to check on their bestfriend, my other half

What have I done?

I apparated back at the manor hastily shutting my bedroom door close.

All this time it was her.. She lived through the killing curse just like her cousin.

The youngest auror and the youngest death eater. I gave her pain when she was comforting me all along. She was giving out hints and I didn't even realised it. She paraded down the corridor with the Weasley twins pulled a prank in hogwarts and all I ever thought about was she was like her but all along it was really her. I didn't remembered that she was a metamorphmagus. She didn't even bothered telling me that it was her.

Ofcourse! Why would she tell me? She will be dead as soon as the Dark Lord knew about her living through the curse

I remembered clearly when Slughorn brewed the amortentia potion back. I thought she was in the room when her strawberry and gunpowder scent filled the room.

When she was sitting in our tree in the black lake. When she didn't laughed at me for breaking down infront of her and instead she brought me comfort and escorted me back to the slytherin room.

I didn't noticed that it was her, even though she always hang around with Harry and discuss certain things with muffled voices. I didn't noticed everything. I was blinded that she was already dead. And I'm not mad at her for keeping this secret at me. I was grateful to know her that she was alright all along. I was mad at myself for cheating on her while she was around me.
