Chapter Text
Hermione stared at the Malfoy Manor garden, the large number of flowers were in full bloom as the seasons changed in the air and the smell of fresh flowers hit her strongly in the face. She inhaled deeply as she closed her eyes with a rattling sigh.
Narcissa had been a massive help with everything lately. The older Malfoy was going through a lot of pain and still decided to be the huge support system that Hermione needed right now.
She hadn’t realised how tough this was going to be for her.
Hermione sighed again, rubbing at her eyes before opening them and staring out at the flowers.
“Darling.” He called out to her, his hand reaching out for her.
“You aren’t real. Leave me alone.” She sniffled, not moving her face or body. She remained completely still. “You are gone.” Her voice left her harsher than she originally planned but it was too late.
He had left her.
He had ruined her life.
Draco was gone.
Draco was dead.
“I am here now, my love.” Draco kept his hand outstretched towards her. “Please, my darling, I am here for you.” His floating form inched closer.
“You are dead!” She turned around to him, screaming at him. “You fucking left me, Draco!” She shouted her throat raw as tears streamed down her cheeks.
“And I am so sorry, my love. But I am always here for you.” Draco commented, inching closer and closer until his ghostly form was almost floating inside of Hermione. “You planted all those flowers for me. I love them. They are beautiful.”
“You don’t deserve them.” She said in anger, collapsing to her knees as she stared at the flowers. Tears wrecked through her body as she tried her hardest to ignore the presence of his ghost.
“I’m sorry, my darling.” Draco brushed her shoulder, taking one more glance at the blooming flowers before disappearing back into the Manor.
