A/N: Beater 2 for Appleby Arrows! So these are some 'hate' letters between Draco and Hermione - written for the Quidditch League Fan Fiction Comp! My prompts are: willing, drag and old.
Hermione: Normal
Draco: Bold
Enjoy!
Hey Malfoy, May 16th, 1999, 3:09pm (Seventh Year at Hogwarts)
Just to let you know - I hate you.
You think you're so damn cool - but you're just an old piece of information! You infuriate me! You are a drag on the end of my bag and all you do is just - just - just sit there! You just stare at me with a smirk and you hate me back so I don't know why the hell you do it!
Is it to frustrate me?
Because if it is, you're doing a bloody good job of it.
Or do you do it because you like me?
You said so yourself that I was good looking and had 'somewhat matured.' If anyone has matured - it's you!
Oh Merlin, I did not just say that.
Well, write that but it doesn't matter! Still the same thing.
And anyway - we couldn't be together! You're a Malfoy and I'm a Granger and right now, I can just hear you saying 'So you think about me, huh?' Well - well, well you must think about me too you sneaky bugger!
And your hair! I GODDAMN HATE YOUR HAIR. Why do you have to slick it back all the time? All the time? Even back in Third Year when I punched you - that was pretty funny by the way - your hair was so bloody greasy and just EW.
So I ask one favour of you, Draco bloody Malfoy. We saved your life, so there's no way to get out of it.
Stop annoying me.
From your biggest fan *sarcasm, if you can't get it through your thick skull*,
Granger
Granger, May 17th, 1999, 7:56am (Seventh Year at Hogwarts)
You're not so bloody perfect yourself.
I hate you too - so I guess we're even.
And all of those little side notes - meh! If anything, I'd think you liked me! But as you say - I am quoting you here - "You're a Malfoy and I'm a Granger." So it's obvious, we can't be together!
Your hair isn't so good either. Well no, it's actually quite nice, the loose curls that hang below your shoulders - and I did not just say that.
All I'm trying to say is that your hair was bad in First and Second Year, but now it's good. And it was especially gorgeous at the Yule Ball. I was actually going to ask you to dance but then I though, Weasley and Potter would possibly kill me. I can just hear you saying 'Ha - I knew you thought about me!' But at least I admit it.
So Granger, I have a favour to ask you. Which you have to do because I saved your arse back at my Manor when you and Potter and Weasley were caught - you stupid idiots. I still can't believe you did that.
Anyway: Meet me at the Black Lake at 11pm tomorrow night so we can talk.
Warm regards *not* and from your biggest fan,
Malfoy
Malfoy, May 17th, 1999, 3:37pm (Seventh Year at Hogwarts)
It was not stupid, we saved the Wizarding World and in closer observation, your arse. So don't go around using that excuse again.
Oh Malfoy, we're not even with anything.
And I do not like you! Are you mental, you foul, evil, loathsome little cockroach!
And why thank you for your 'oh so lovely' comments on my hair - I think it's quite nice myself - glad you think so too.
Yeah, you're right - I was thinking that.
Fine.
I'll meet you but only - ONLY - so you leave me the hell alone.
Until then,
Granger
Granger, May 17th, 1999, 4:09pm (Seventh Year at Hogwarts)
See you there.
Malfoy
Malfoy. May 19th, 1999, 10:59am (Seventh Year at Hogwarts)
What happened last night should never have happened.
That kiss was not supposed to happen.
You know it.
I know it.
So…this should be the end of whatever is going on.
Um, sorry?
Granger
Granger. May 19th, 1999, 11:04am (Seventh Year at Hogwarts)
You don't mean that.
We both leaned in at the same time.
It was meant to happen.
Meet me again tonight.
Same time.
Same place.
Malfoy.
Okay Draco. May 20th, 1999, 9:26am (Seventh Year at Hogwarts)
You won whatever the hell this was.
Hermione
Oh Hermione. May 20th, 1999, 9:30am (Seventh Year at Hogwarts)
I'm so glad that you admitted it.
Who knows how long we would have been keeping up at this game.
But, I have never heard you admit that someone has won something?
New you?
Draco
Oh bloody hell Draco. May 20th, 1999, 9:36am (Seventh Year at Hogwarts)
Now leave me the hell alone so I can study for the Charms test!
I know we're together and everything but if you make my grades drop then I'll drop your sorry arse!
Love you too, Mione. May 20th, 1999, 9:40am (Seventh Year at Hogwarts)
PS. My arse is so not 'sorry.'
Oh shut up. May 20th, 1999, 9:42am (Seventh Year at Hogwarts)
Fine. May 17th, 1999, 9:44am (Seventh Year at Hogwarts)
Fine. May 20th, 1999, 9:46am (Seventh Year at Hogwarts)
Is this going to be our relationship? May 20th, 1999, 9:50am (Seventh Year at Hogwarts)
Back and forth but we still know we like each other?
Because I like it.
Mione
Gorgeous, May 20th, 1999, 9:52am (Seventh Year at Hogwarts)
Whatever you want.
Whatever.
You.
Want.
Even if it's punching me in the face, I probably deserve it.
I'm yours.
Draco
I'm glad that it's going to be like this. May 20th, 1999, 9:55am (Seventh Year at Hogwarts)
It'll be fun!
I'm yours too.
Now I seriously have to study for this test!
Mione
PS. That punch was pretty damn awesome.
That's fine! May 20th, 1999, 9:58am (Seventh Year at Hogwarts)
Sorry I'm so smart - I don't have to study!
Meet me tonight at the Room of Requirement at 8:45pm for a date.
Draco
Draco. May 20th, 1999, 10:00am (Seventh Year at Hogwarts)
I will punch you again.
But fine, I will meet you there.
Mione
See you there! May 20th, 1999, 10:02am (Seventh Year at Hogwarts)
PS. I's still smarter than you.
Fine. May 20th, 1999, 10:03am (Seventh Year at Hogwarts)
PS. Only saying that to shut you up.
