Hi everyone! Thank you to those who reviewed my other HG/DM OneShots, it has inspired me to write a couple more. I was listening to the Jack Johnson album 'In Between Dreams', its really good and I love it! So I took a couple of songs and ta da! My first song-fic.
A/N: I did skip some lines and change some minor things in order to fit the song better to my fic, so don't flame for the inaccurate lyrics.
Hope you like it and please read the other two…and all my fics haha! So on with the story…

Do You Remember? – Jack Johnson
Draco loved the woman lying next to him so much it hurt. He had tried to win her over the honest way, but she never saw things his way.
Do you remember when we first met?
I sure do
It was some time in early September
He was always the evil, arrogant enemy. Even after the war when he had dedicated himself to their cause. He knew the consequences but still turned his back on Voldemort. Why? Because he thought she would see how he had changed, just to be with her.
But you were lazy about it, you made me wait around
I was so crazy about you I didn't mind
But when she got engaged to Weasley he couldn't take it any longer. How much could he do to get his message across? Was there nothing he could do to make her see how true his love was? So, he placed her under the Imperius Curse.
I guess that I was afraid that if you rolled away
You might not roll back my direction real soon
If there was another way, he would have tried, he didn't like to trick her and tell her lies about the romance that made her marry him.
Carefully Draco smoothed back some of her ginger curls. She shifted slightly, settling deeper into his embrace.
I was crazy about you then and now
The craziest thing of all is over ten years has gone by
And you're still mine, we're locked in time
Lets rewind
Sometimes, keeping her under the Imperius and using memory charms to release the hatred towards him were too much. It was so much guilt to live with; knowing that her loving glances were fake, they weren't true.
If only he had convinced her earlier.
Well all these times they come and go
And alone don't seem so long
Over ten years has gone by
But the years of happiness with his love, the woman he was crazy for so long and still was; these years were worth the guilt. They were worth the pain of telling himself white lies.
But is it worth the future? How long could he keep her under lock and key? He loved her truly, more than Weasley ever could.
Because of this he knew it was time to let her free; give her back her mind and let her make the decision herself.
We can't rewind, we're locked in time
But you're still mine
Breathing deeply, Draco waved his wand, releasing the bonds that held Hermine's mind and heart.
She woke then, looking up at him with mild confusion.
Do you remember?
They stared at each other for a minute, memories rushing back into her head, what Draco did; what he had showed her about himself.
Do you remember when we first met?
Do you remember when we first moved in together?
"Do you remember?" He whispered, eyes searching; pleading.
She smiled softly "Yes, I believe I do."

So what did you think? Please drop in the review and let me know. And feel free to read my other fics. By the way, each OneShot and the three Jack Johnson song-fics are in no way related. They are all different scenarios!
Thanks for reading!
