The Confession

I was along the corridors of Hogwarts when someone grabbed me from behind and pulled me into a dark passageway to the left. I was too scared to scream instead I just went really rigid and shut my eyes tightly.
"Lumos" I heard a male voice say. I recognised that voice. "Malfoy, what do you want from me? I will do anything just please, please don't hurt me!" I said shakily. He laughed at this and that made me even more scared. "Firstly, I want you to call me
Draco. Secondly, I want you to calm down because I am not going to hurt you Hermione. I don't know why I pulled you in here but I just saw you and I just pulled you in here instinctively. I should probably explain more."
"You think!" Hermione says with a bit more confidence seeing the vulnerability and sincerity in Draco's face however still cautiously.

He talked for a while but I didn't understand what he was saying as he was talking so quick. I didn't interrupt him though because it seemed as though he was really nervous about it. After he had finished i said. "What? Try again but this time slower
because I didn't understand a word it just said. " He hung his head low and if made me feel bad. "I am so sorry it's just that I was really nervous about telling you this and I am just so confused how this happened-" I put my hand up to stop him from
talking and said
"Now who needs to calm down? It's ok Mal-Draco. Let's start from the beginning but this time I will ask you questions and you will answer them. Ok?" He nodded but kept his head down. "What are you confused about happening?" He hesitated. Then he casted
a silencing charm before answering "I don't understand how I have feelings for you. For years we have been enemies and I have put you through hell since the day we met. Now suddenly I care about you and I don't understand how!" I couldn't help but
smile at this. Probably feeling my smile he looked up. "What are yousmiling at?" He asked abruptly.

"Nothing, it's just you are cute." He flushed a deep shade of red at this. "So next question... Why were you nervous to tell me?" He hesitated once again before saying "I wasn't sure if you would feel the same way or if you would laugh at me and spread
rumours around the school about me." I tried my hardest but I couldn't help but laugh.

He looked very hurt and I stopped abruptly. Then explained "Begore you ask I am only laughing because icouldn't believe that you actually think that I would hurt you like that. Ofcourse I feel the same way about you. I don't understand how
or why either but I am glad I do."

He stood still, not moving at all. I saw the fear of rejection and anxiety flood out of his eyes and replaced with happiness. As he wasn't moving I chose to make a move. I lifted my wand said "Nox" and immediately the light from his want went out. I heard
him move slightly at this sudden darkness. I put my hands out in front of me and took a step closer to him. I felt his muscly arms under my hands. I squeezed him arms and took another step closer to him. I got so close to him that I could feel his
heart beating fast. I got on my toes and kissed him lightly on the lips. I felt him relax. I pulled away and left leaving Draco alone in the darkness.
