She sighed getting aggravated and the interruption. Hermione Granger turned around to see Harry Potters head emerging from her fireplace.
"please Hermione come out to dinner with us, Ginny hasn't seen you in ages and neither have I"
"harry we go through this every week…im much to busy for dinners and what nots"
"Mione its been 5 years it is time you move on…please..this isn't healthy"
"thank you for your concern mr. potter but I am a grown adult and I will do as I please and that my friend is staying in my little lab and working"
"yea about that, what exactly are you working on"
"something that will change the wizarding world for ever..and with that note I must insist you let me go back to work" and with that she turned around closing a curtain in front of her fireplace.
They just don't understand she thought, they think they know what love is, but really they have no idea…would Harry or Ginny or anyone go to the lengths that I have gone…
She slowly walked down the stairs to the basement of a beautiful Victorian home. Her own personal work place, she refused to work in the ministry to many questions, memories, and suitors that just did not get the hint. As she entered her own lab she stopped for a moment and stared and left where there was a door…she sighed as she put her hand on it..she couldn't help the tears that flowed down it happen every time..
She slowly pulled a strand of her hair and held it by the door known where the hair was sucked up by the keyhole after glowing brightly the door opened..
She walked slowly inside, first she went over to the potion she was working on after examining its contents she went to her cupboard for more ingredients. As she was chopping up some gillyweed she had a flashback…
She remembered she didn't care if she got caught she just knew she had to help Harry save Ron. She knew everyone would be in the stands so she bursted into Snapes dungeon and started looking for gillyweed she was surprised when she ran full force into Draco Malfoy.
"well well well, What are u doing here Granger"
"what is it to you Malfoy!..i don't have time for you I need to help Harry"
"ah but of course..go right ahead" he said as he moved aside
She eyed him carefully but not wanting to waste any more time she went straight for the gillyweed.
He kept looking at her the whole time wondering what Krum saw in this girl…sure her bushy hair wasn't as bushy as it was, sure she was leaving her girlish body behind and developing some nice curves, sure her eyes always twinkled with fierce determination…maybe that's why..
She rushed past him hoping she reached Harry in time.
Later that evening she was extremely restless in her bed, she just couldn't shake off Draco's grey eyes. She borrowed Harrys invisibility cloak and made her way down to the lake. She was enjoying the chilly breeze until she realized she was shivering but she didn't want to leave. She felt and odd sense of emptiness something was missing with her..out of no where she felt a nice fleece blanket being wrapped around her. She turned around abruptly to come face to face with Draco Malfoy, he had his arms around her to keep her from loosing her balance..
"you" she said
"you" he said
She sat back down and he next to her. No one spoke and they both seemed to understand that silence. They didn't touch they just stared ahead both of them knowing and accepting that this was the beginning of something…something new, strange…but welcomed
She stared down at that gillyweed and couldn't resist a smile…so this is what started everything she thought..
She turned around and walked over to the center of her lab..she put her hand inside her make shift incubator and touched Draco Malfoy's 17 yr old looking face..
"one day you will rise again my love" she said caressing him.."we will be together and enjoy the life that was stolen from us..i think I may have done it Draco..just give me a little more time and I will find a way to reverse the avada kedavra curse"
