Then Draco Malfoy did something he had only done once, in the presence of something dark. He kneeled in front of Hermione, much like the way he was forced to kneel in front of the Dark Lord the night he got his Dark Mark. But this was different. This was his choice. This was Hermione. This was right. "I’ll always be lost without you. I am not a good man; I don’t make the right decisions. I am too afraid of the consequences. These are terrible flaws in a person and too heavy a burden on your shoulder. But I need you to know who I am. I need you to know that you will probably spend a huge portion of your life making me do the right thing. I’ll fight you, I’ll run from you. But if you keep holding on to me, I’ll keep on coming back to you.’
