You stood outside the room of requirement. You had become more worried about Draco and had come accustomed to following him in order to make sure he was ok. 'This is it,' you thought. 'This will be the end of my following.' Today, you finally planned on confronting him. You knew something was wrong, and you wanted to do everything in your power to help him.

You looked once more at the door, thinking only about the one person you hoped to find and began to open it. You cautiously looked in and saw the one thing you hoped you'd never see.

Draco was crying.

Your heart broke when you saw him. He had always been your crutch and yet, at this moment, you couldn't be the same for him. You slowly walked up to him and placed a hand on his shoulder. He jumped but quickly turned to face you, wand out in front of him, and fear evident on his face. However, as soon as he saw you, he calmed down slightly.

"Draco," you started, "What's wrong?" He grabbed onto you and pulled you closer. "I'm sorry." he stated, " I can't tell you." He only began to cry harder after this. Whatever it was he was up to, it was pushing him over the edge, and the stress was slowly killing him inside.

     You lightly grabbed his face and forced him to look you in the eyes. "There has to be something I can do," you whispered. "Can you sing that one song you always sing?",He Started, " the one about paying you back with kisses."

     You smiled at this. "I have a better idea, " you said. You quickly grabbed his hand and started to lead him out of the room of requirement. "(F/N), where exactly are we going?" "Astronomy Tower", you answered quickly. "Can I ask why?"

       You stopped for a moment on the stairs and looked back at him. "Promise you won't think it's stupid?" "Well, I can't exactly judge it if I don't know what it is." You smiled a bit at his response and continued to walk towards the astronomy tower.

      "Well," you started, "whenever I was frightened, or felt alone, there was always this one star I could turn to. Sort of an escape from reality. I thought maybe you'd like to see it as well."

     You didn't turn around, but you knew exactly what kind of face he was making. He was probably even more confused, possibly even thinking you were a bit crazy, especially because you were thinking a star would help him feel better.

     When you finally reached to top of the tower, you dragged him to the one spot where you knew he would be able to see it clearly. "There it is," you said while pointing, "second star to the right and straight on till morning." You knew you sounded slightly crazy, well at least to him. He didn't understand the full story.

     What you didn't expect, was for him to start to laughing.

"Don't get me wrong" you started. "I'm glad to see you laughing, but what in the world did I say."

"Where in the world did you come up with that idea?" He said in between bought a of laughter.

You smiled, it was a bit silly the first time you had heard it as well. "It's from a book. You know, one of the many you see me reading on a daily basis."

"Of course it is." He stared at you for a moment, smiling, as if trying to decide what to do next. After a moment or two he enveloped you in his arms, chin resting lightly on top of your head.

"Thank you" he whispered, "I don't know what I'd do without you."

You closed your eyes as a smile gently appeared on your face. "Anything for you" you whispered back. "Because I'll always cover you."

A/N: I know, it took me long enough. Here's the very bad ending to part 2. Like I mentioned in a previous post I did have ideas for a part 3, but at the rate I write I doubt I'll ever get around to doing it. So this book is going to become completed, but on the off chance I do have some time I'll attempt to write it,but I wouldn't get any hopes up. Thank you guys so much for reading this and dealing with it taking so long. ❤️
