"Thinking Of You"
Comparisons are easily done
Once you've had a taste of perfection
The day we met, we were enemies. There's no other way to describe it... I fell in love.
We had our differences, yes. Who doesn't?
Like an apple hanging from a tree
I picked the ripest one
I still got the seed
The day that I met him in the hallway, after hours. I knew he was the one for me.
***flashback***
"Hey Granger." His voice said behind me.
"What do you want Malfoy?" I asked as I turned to look at him.
"Honest answer?" He look almost tormented.
"That would be nice for a change."
"You." He said.
"Your joking right?" I asked.
I gasped as he took a few strides and wrapped his arms around me. He looked into my eyes and leaned in. His lips captured mine.
I felt my heart race fast and my arms wrap around his neck. My fingers intertwined themselves in his hair.
He pressed me against the closest wall and I wrapped my legs around him.
Soon we pulled away when the need for air became a necessity.
"Does it look like I am joking... Hermione..."
He left and I felt as if my being was on fire.
***end of flashback***
"Hey 'Mione... You okay? You seem out of it." The person I had to choose asked.
"Never better." I said. My voice barely above a whisper.
You said move on
Where do I go
I guess second best
Is all I will know
For almost ten years, we were together. Meeting in secret. We both knew that if we were caught, we'd be killed.
During the war, things got bad.
Harry and Ron were constantly with me. Never letting me out of there sight.
Every time I tried to sneak away, they would follow me.
One day, Draco confronted me.
***flashback***
Feeling his lips leave mine, I opened my hazel brown eyes to look into his silverish blue orbs.
"We can't be together anymore..." He said softly. His voice hoarse.
We both knew this day was going to come sooner than later, but it still hurt to hear the words leave his mouth.
"You need to move on..." I heard him say.
"How? Where am I suppose to go? I love you!" I say, as tears left my eyes.
"I love you, too."
"I can't leave you..." I said.
That night he held me close.
In the morning we said our farewells.
***end of flashback***
Little did I know, that he was going to be killed the day after our final kiss.
"Are you sure your alright, babe?" Ron asked.
"Yes!" I almost shout. "Sorry Ron. I just have a lot on my mind. The wedding is only a few days away..."
"Understood."
I was to marry Ronald Weasley within two days.
The day he left this world.
Cause when I'm with him
I am thinking of you
Thinking of you
What you would do if
You were the one
Who was spending the night
Oh I wish that I
Was looking into your eyes
Ron leaned down and kissed my forehead.
I imagined it being Draco instead...
Ron and I would be moving in together after the honeymoon. He would spend the night and I would feel broken.
I would pretend I was in Draco's arms.
I would pretend it was his silver-blue orbs I would be looking into.
How I wished it really was...
You're like an Indian summer
In the middle of winter
When it got cold... Draco would wrap his arms around me and give me his cloak. He would say it was so I wouldn't catch a cold.
I still have his cloak now.
It smells just like him.
When I'm alone, I snuggle up with it.
He told me to move on with my life. Yet, all I want to do is curl up into a ball and cry.
When Ron left for work, I took out his cloak and put it on.
I made that last minute details of Ron's and my's wedding.
The following day I would be 'Mrs. Ronald Weasley.'
Though all I wanted to be was 'Mrs. Draco Malfoy.'
Life wasn't fair.
Like a hard candy
With a surprise center
If you asked most people, they would tell you Draco Malfoy was an awful, cruel man.
But that was just his disguise. He gave to the poor and helped free house elves from there cruel masters.
I would say to him "Your my Surprise truffle."
Because he had a soft milky inside, but appeared tough and rocky.
How do I get better
Once I've had the best
I've had the best of the best. Yet I'm settling for less...
Ron's a good guy, who's head over heals in love with me... Yet, I don't deserve him.
He deserves someone who will love him as he loves me.
Yet I'm planning on marrying him.
I don't want to break his heart.
We've been friends for almost 15 years...
Dating for five.
I know I can't hurt him...
So why do I feel as if I'm hurting myself instead?
You said there's
Tons of fish in the water
So the waters I will test
Draco would always tell me after we broke up, I would have men lining up to date me.
I would roll my eyes and laugh.
He knew me and Ron were dating. It didn't matter to us.
Even though it hurt to lie to Ron everyday.
He kissed my lips
I taste your mouth
He pulled me in
I was disgusted with myself
As I get ready for my "special day", I pretend to be the happiest woman on the planet.
Yet I can't help but feel broken on the inside.
Every time Ron and I kiss, I taste his mouth.
I want him more than anything, yet here I am about to marry Ron.
I am disgusted that he could be with someone else.
Someone that truly cares.
Yet he's choosing to be with me.
Soon, my father tells me it's time.
Together, we walk towards my doom.
Cause when I'm with him
I am thinking of you
Thinking of you
As I walk down the aisle... I imagine him waiting for me at the end.
I fake a smile.
Ron gives me a true smile. One that's filled with love.
I already know what I'm about to do.
Even if it hurts everyone I know.
At least they will know the reason for my so called "madness".
My minds set. No one can change it now.
As I get closer and closer to Ron.
I feel my heart break.
Yet, it's more for his soon-to-be heart break.
I reach him...
What you would do if
You were the one
Who was spending the night
Oh I wish that I
Was looking into...
The preacher says his lines. When it gets to the line "Speak now or forever hold your peace."
I take a deep breath.
I feel Ron squeeze my hand and give me a reassuring smile.
No one speaks, nor makes a sound.
"Ronald Billious Weasley, do you take Hermione to be your mate through the good and bad? To see through the darkness with her by your side? To protect her through everything?"
"I do." He said proudly as a tear slid down my cheek.
My turn.
"Hermione Jean Granger, do you take Ronald to be your mate through the good and bad? To see through the darkness with him by your side? To protect him through everything?"
The moment of truth had arrived.
"I...I..." I looked into his eyes. "I can't."
There was a chorus of gasps through our audience.
"I'm sorry... I fell in love with someone else..."
I took a deep breath and continued.
"It wasn't suppose to happen. I tried not to fall nor even look his way. I guess you can say that made me want him more..."
You're the best
And yes I do regret
How I could let myself
Let you go
"Now he's gone for good. Why don't I start at the beginning..."
Everyone was silent. They wanted to know what I was talking about. All of them were driven by the curiousity of knowing...
"Draco Malfoy confronted me in the corridor almost 15 years ago... One thing led to another and we were together. For years we were together in secret. Meeting in darkened passages.
Nothing could keep us apart..."
"Long story short... The day after we broke it off... He was killed."
Now the lesson's learned
I touched it I was burned
Oh I think you should know
"You can say that's what I get for playing with fire. You play and get burned. Yet, I wasn't burnt. Not even for a millisecond."
I turned to Ron.
"I'm sorry. Every one wanted us together. I couldn't bring myself to is though. You deserve a love like I had. I want you to be happy and get the most out of life... You just won't get that with me."
I kissed his cheek.
"I understand 'Mione. I love you." Ron said as he gave me a hug.
We both knew this was it. Only one of us knew we weren't going to
be see each other...
Harry winked at me and hugged me.
Ginny glared at me and then gave me a hug while whispering "Go."
into my ear.
"Thank you everyone for coming."
With that I turned and ran out of the church. I kept running until I could run no longer. I was in the middle of a forest.
Cause when I'm with him
I am thinking of you
Thinking of you
I close my eyes and imagine a cliff. At the bottom there was an ocean.
When I reopened my eyes, I was at the place I imagined.
I looked across the ocean, the sun was setting.
The sight was magical.
"Draco... I hope you can hear me. I'm always thinking of you. There hasn't been a day when your beautiful face hasn't crossed my mind or your angelic voice appears in my dreams." I start to say. Taking a deep relaxing breath.
What you would do if
You were the one
Who was spending the night
"I left my wedding, every person in the world now knows of our love. It will never fade. I love you. That's why I'm doing what I'm about to do..." I say.
I close my eyes, taking a few more calming breaths.
That's when I start to take a few steps back.
After about ten paces, I open my eyes and start running.
Then I'm floating, then falling fast.
I brace myself for the impact.
Soon I am under water, holding my breath.
Oh I wish that I
Was looking into your eyes
Most people would've thought me jumping off a cliff, would be suicide. Sorry to disappoint. Only he would know what I was doing...
***flashback***
"Are you ready to jump?" Draco asked.
"If I must."
"Don't worry, we're doing this together. Besides everyone must face there fears."
"I will... eventually."
"Eventually is now."
As soon as those words left his mouth, he picked me up and started running towards the cliff.
"Draco!" I shouted as he jumped.
All you could hear was our laughter.
That day was amazing.
***end of flashback***
I swam to the surface, thinking those thoughts.
After I caught my breath I whispered.
"You taught me to take challenges and not be afraid to do anything. For that, I thank you. And I hope you don't mind Blaise and Melissa taking care of Scorpius for awhile. It was starting to hurt being around him."
I start to swim to the surface.
Looking into your eyes
Looking into your eyes
***flashback***
The pain had subsided, thanks to painkillers.
The pain was worth it though.
In my arms was a little bundle of joy. A baby boy.
"What would you like to name him?" A nurse asked.
"Scorpius. Scorpius Lucious Malfoy." I said.
New born Scorpius, opened his eyes. They were almost exactly like his fathers.
He was his father's son.
***end of flashback***
I kept him a secret because I didn't want to explain. It hurt to much to explain.
I didn't have to hide anymore.
Oh won't you walk through
And bust in the door
And take me away
Oh no more mistakes
Cause in your eyes I'd like to stay...
"I hope one day we meet again, but for now... Remember I love you."
