Time is Running Out - Chapter Sixteen

Hermione cracked up her eyes just enough to get any idea of what time it was. If she had to guess she would say around 6:00 am because the sun was just coming up. But instead of getting up she closed her eyes as she listened to Draco's heart as it beat. She had been laying on his chest ever since she had fallen asleep after their wonderful night of pleasure. His breathing was rhythmic and calming making it easy to fall asleep. Which she did.

Draco POV==================

Draco yawned and opened his eyes. He looked at the sleeping Hermione and couldn't help but remember the night before. The memory caused him to smile in a way he never had before. And it was at that moment that Draco realized just how much he loved the beautiful woman sprawled a crossed him. Draco never thought he would ever love someone other then himself but he had changed and she had helped him change. He owed her more then he could ever repay. But it saddened him to think that he would only love her for a few months or so before he would die.

I really do hope she will find a cure, because living her now would be the worse punishment I could ever have. He said to himself.

Draco looked over at the clock on his night stand, the time read 9:53 a.m. It was much later then he thought it was and he had to pee like there was no tomorrow but as he looked down at the sleeping Hermione he could not force himself to move and wake her up, so he would have to hold it.

The things you do for love. He said laughing to himself.

But lucky for him that was when Hermione moved her head and looked up at him. “Good morning!” she said to him in a cheery voice laced to sleepiness.

“Good morning!” He said to her with a smile. “How did you sleep?” he asked.

“I have never slept so well in all my life.” She told him honestly. “What about you?”

“About the same.”

“How long have you been up?” She asked.

“Only for a few minute or so.” He told her as he ran his fingers through her curly brown hair. She closed her eyes and smiled. People rarely played with her hair so she was loving it.

After about ten minutes Draco said. “Are you hungry or anything?”

Hermione opened her eyes. “Actually I'm starving!” she said with enthusiasm.

Draco chuckled lightly. “Well why don't you decided what you want while I use the bathroom and I'll go let Deedee know what you want. Does that sound good?” he asked.

“Wonderful!” She said as she rolled off of Draco's chest and on to the bed.

Draco stood up and make his way to the bathroom.

Hermione POV ==================

Hermione yawned and stretched, trying to decide if she wanted pancakes or french toast....or maybe both!

She rolled over and looked at the clock it was 10:20 a.m.

That was when she heard a loud thwonk noise coming from the bathroom.

“Draco?” She called and got no answer. When she got no answer she quickly jumped out of the bed and called his name again. But again there was not answer. She pushed open the bathroom door and stopped dead in her tracks.

“No....no....no...” she said.

She ran to Draco who was laying face down on the floor.

She quickly turned him over checked his heart rate and made sure he was breathing.

He was breathing but he had lost all consciousness.

“Deedee! Deedee!” Hermione yelled.

The small elf popped in, she had a smile on her face which quickly faded as soon as she saw Draco on the floor. Hermione looked up at Deedee.

“I need you to grab me paper and a pen!”

She did as she was asked and came back quickly. Hermione made a list as fast as she could and handed the paper back to Deedee. “I need you to go to the hospital and get everything on the list. Just talk to Andrew Stine.”

Deedee was gone with a pop.
