The war is over. It was a terrible affair that many wish not to speak of.
It was not a complete nightmare, however. No, the war had had some dire consequences, but it also signified the end of Lord Voldemort's reign.
Through the pain and suffering, newly acquired friendships grew. People took refuge in past enemies.
Before you knew it, Hermione Granger and Draco Malfoy were inseparable.
There she goes again
The girl I'm in love with
It's cool we're just friends
We walk the halls at school
We know it's casual
It's cool we're just…
He glances at her with longing. It has been, and still is, excruciatingly difficult to hide his feelings from her.
How much longer must he pretend his pulse doesn't quicken when their eyes meet, that his stomach doesn't do back flips when she says his name. How long must this charade last?
I don't want to lead you on
No
But the truth is I've grown fond
Yeah
Ron places his hand on the small of her back and guides her into the kitchen of the Burrow.
Draco feels his ear heat up, and his breathing quickens. He cannot take much more of this.
Everyone knows it's meant to be
Falling in love, just you and me
'til the end of time
'til I'm on her mind
It'll happen
I've been making lots of plans
Like a picket fence and a rose garden
I just keep on dreaming
But it's cool cause we're just friends
But he must not tell her. She is happy with Ron. To tell her would be to scare her away. He could not survive without her.
He'll be alright, as long as they remain friends.
Small talk on IM
Just one word sentences
It's cool we're just friends
If I had my way
We'd talk and talk all day
Yeah
But that doesn't stop him from envisioning the life they could have together.
A white picket fence enclosing an elegant two bedroom flat. A stunning rose garden wafting it's delicious aroma toward all passersby.
Draco sighs. He knows that day will never come. But it will be alright, as long as they remain friends.
Everyone knows it's meant to be

But it's cool cause we're just friends
He is sitting at Home when the doorbell rings. Hermione flings herself inside, uninvited. But then, when is she ever not welcome?
"I can't take this anymore!" She cries out in exasperation, and in one swift movement, she grabs his shirt and pulls him down to her. Draco smiles against her lips.
Thinking about how
We're gonna say Our vows
It's cool we're just friends
She walks down the aisle
I see all my friends smile
Cause now we're more than friends
He stands at the altar, smirking to all his friends as Hermione walks down the aisle. The Weasleys smile knowingly. It was meant to be.

Like a picket fence and a rose garden
I'll just keep on dreaming
Just keep on thinking of when we used to be just friends
Propped up on one elbow, Draco observes his sleeping wife. A smile graces his lips as he thinks back to when they used be just friends.
La, La, La, La
La, La, La, La
La, La, La, La, La
When we used to be (When we used to be)
La, La, La, La
La, La, La, La (Just friends)
La, La, La, La, La
When we used to be just friends
