But Draco Malfoy is now dead, as once again Bellatrix has managed to hurt someone Neville loves. Because watching Draco die had broken Theodore, had killed a part of Hermione, and had hurt Neville beyond what he can put into words. Despite their past, just like Hermione, Neville had grown to first appreciate Draco as the Order potion master, and then as a friend. He spent hours in Draco’s laboratory, talking with him about plants and their properties as Hermione and Theo talked about Transfiguration and Charms. It was a plus that Draco was the reason Theodore entered his life, his heart.
