Alrighty, let's get this show on the road! ….. Oh God….i sound like my mother….ANYWAY, 2nd Dramione attempt! LET'S SEE WHERE THIS GOES! XD
If this fails like last time, PLEASE TELL ME. It took me less than a week to figure out my story was going nowhere….i also don't know if you would count this as romance but whatever. It sort of is.
Btw, i'm not British (obviously) so i won't know many terms they use in England! I know the term "lou" though! :D
I don't own Harry Potter. (or Draco Malfoy/Tom Felton although we all know how many girls wish they did)
Just another lovely day at Hogwarts…..
Bah, who am I kidding?
The sky was gray, the trees were sinister looking, big rain clouds had rolled in, and one Hermione Granger was in quite the bad mood.
Lightning flashed, illuminating the slightly darkened halls as she stormed through the old castle. The look on her face was murderous, as any fool could see. (Considering there are quite a few fools around this place.)
Hermione marched into the Great Hall and placed her hands on her hips. Everyone froze.
"DRACO MALFOY!" she yelled.
"HERMIONE GRANGER!" was the reply.
She glared in the Slytherin table's direction. There, smirking at her with a glint in his eyes was the boy whom she believed to be the death of her. She stalked in his direction and grabbed him by the tie.
"Draco, I swear I will feed you to whatever is in the lake if you don't answer me." Hermione glared into his (gorgeous) gray eyes and tightened her grip on his tie, bringing them slightly closer.
He faked a cringe. "Hermione, love, I'm afraid I'm far too good-looking to be fed to the creatures in the lake."
"Don't give me that, you ferret!"
"Then what, pray tell, have I done, darling?" Draco gave her a sickening smile.
"What did you do? What did you do? You know perfectly well what you've done!" She narrowed her eyes menacingly at her suspect.
"I have no idea what you're talking about," he said.
"Yes, you do." Hermione had lost her patience, which she didn't have much of anyway.
"Why would you come in here and start pointing fingers at me just because I'm likeable?" he feigned hurt. "Not to mention hot." he added, smirking.
Hermione let go of him and stepped back, sighing with exasperation. She rubbed her temples, her eyebrows creased in discomfort. "Malfoy, you are many things, other than what you believe yourself to be."
"Oh please, you know I'm hot." Did his smirk just grow?
"Right," she started, staring incredulously at him. Their suspiciously quiet audience just gaped at the scene unfolding before them. They looked like fish. Save for a few knowing Gryffindors and Slytherins. "I know you're not. You also know what you've done and I believe an apology is in order."
"Mione, I keep telling you that I don't know what I've done. How 'bout we drop it?" Draco kept as much of a straight face as when the corners of your mouth slightly twitch upward every couple seconds.
Then, she gave Draco a look that practically killed everyone EXCEPT him.
"You.
Ate.
My.
Pixie stix."
Draco grinned. "Oh, that?"
Hermione looked completely calm. Way too calm. She simply nodded. Definitely the calm before the storm.
He took this opportunity to further enrage her. "Yes, I did eat your pixie stix. They were just sitting there on the common room table looking quite inviting, really, and since you were gone, I thought you wouldn't mind if I had just one. But they were really good so I just kept eating them. And whaddaya know? They were gone as well!" he was smiling widely at this point.
"I see….so you just decided on your own that just because I wasn't there it was perfectly fine for you to go and eat my pixie stix…." she shrugged. "Well…."
"Yes, Hermione?" Queue crooked grin from Draco.
"YOU ARE THE MOST INSANE, SELF-CENTERED, OBNOXIOUS, CANDY-EATING JERK I HAVE EVER KNOWN!"
"Aw, I know!" he smiled. "And that's what you love about me!" he squeezed her cheek playfully.
"And that's what makes you piss me off so much!" she hissed.
"Oh come on, it's just some candy. You'll get over it." he stood and wrapped his arm around her. "Come on. Let's get you back so you can calm yourself."
Hermione grumbled but didn't protest as they exited the Hall.
"Did I miss something here?" Ron asked with a very confused expression.
"No, Ronald. Draco didn't just walk out with Hermione in his arms." Ginny rolled her eyes. "Of course you missed something you thick head!"
"No need to yell at the poor, lost boy. He'll figure it out on his own slow pace." Harry patted Ginny's shoulder.
"I'm not thick…." Ron pouted.
"Of course not." Harry and Ginny replied. The latter of the two looking more pissed than the other.
"Hermione, angel, there can only be one way to calm your nerves." Draco gave her a look that can only mean trouble. For her, anyway.
"And what is that?" she played along, more or less enthusiastic about it.
"By staring at my incredibly handsome being." he devilishly smirked down at her.
"That's it, bottom of the lake with you. Have fun with whatever's down there." she fast-walked down the hall and to the Heads' Tower.
Draco only laughed at this. "You know you're only joking, love!" he hollered after her.
"Shut your face, ferret!"
What a lovely couple they are~
WHEW! I am SO glad that's over! I started it yesterday when I was in the mood but whatever….
If I get at least 2 reviews I might continue it in one-shots per chapter. And if I don't get any reviews like my last failure of a story, I understand.
Thanks for reading if you actually did!
Adieu~!
