Crabbe knew that would never happen and was just trying to make sure that he exacted his own vengeance.

And then he wanted to give me a chance at saving you so that he could ruin it. And me." The last words came out so softy she almost missed them. She grabbed one of his hands as he spoke, running his irritated wand gently along his still-unhealed knuckles.
