Title: What Have You Done Now
Author: BlackDemonAngel
Chapter 1: The Truth
Would you mind if I killed you?
Would you mind if I tried to, cause you have
Everything was perfect; it was like he and I were meant to be. From the kisses and touches there was love. But I guess everything was too perfect to be true. You see, Harry and I hooked up around Forth year after the whole Yule Ball fiasco. I was so happy back then, and looking back now it all seemed so fake, so unrealistic. Almost like a beautiful silent movie just playing and then it suddenly stops and you feel different as if your whole life has been a lie. I now notice that all the signs were there, so subtle that you don't notice, but still there. Things with Harry were so perfect that I didn't even notice the changes.
I know I better stop trying
You know that there's no denying
I won't show mercy on you now
I realized things stated to change around the beginning of fifth year when I convinced Harry to started Dumbledore's Army. Even though D.A was my idea certain things did not add up. Sometimes girls would ask Harry for help, and these private sessions usually occurred after D.A meetings. And I being the trusting girlfriend that I am let him. That was my first mistake. At first everything was okay, I mean he would sometimes stay longer than needed; I would always try to think logically about it and not just jump to conclusions. And then things got worse, sometimes he would come in the common room close to curfew, smelling like girls perfume. I tried really, I did, but I just couldn't hold the relationship by myself anymore. I got sick of denying what I knew was going on. So one day I went after him, I stole his Invisibility Cloak and followed him, it was right before Christmas. He was suppose to be teaching Cho Chang how to do a patronus charm. I guess he was trying really hard to give her a "happy" memory, because I caught him locking lips with her in a compromising position.
I know I should stop believing
I know that there's no retreating
It's over now
What have you done?
What have you done now?
After witnessing such a passionate display I couldn't help it. Something in me snapped and I threw Harry's invisibility cloak on the floor, and lost it. I hexed Cho and yelled at Harry. If I recall well I believe it went like this- "You fucking bastard this why you've been so distracted lately!" and slapped him. I knew I was crying because I could feel the tears make their way down my cheeks. I felt numb and hurt. Harry had been in shock while I yelled but he seemed to snap out of it when I slapped him. He looked hurt and ashamed.
I simply couldn't look at him and I wouldn't. I ran out of the room not caring if Filch or if anyone else found me. I ran and ran until I couldn't go anywhere. I found myself in the Astronomy Tower. I looked out the window; it was night and the moon was bright along with the stars. That automatically reminded me of Harry. He used to tell me that if I looked closely and saw a shooting star that it meant a soul was going to heaven. We were on our first date when he told me that, it was also the day we had our first kiss.
I've been waiting for someone like you
But now you are slipping away
(What have you done now?)
I had always wanted Harry to be my boyfriend, he was nice, caring and my best friend. I was sure Harry wouldn't hurt me, but I wrong. I stayed up in the Tower staring at the night until I heard the door close. Turning around I found Malfoy standing behind me. He simply started at me, then proceeded to move forward to look out the window. We just stayed there in silence for a while until he spoke, "You found out huh?" I looked at him with a curious look.
He laughed at my curious face and took out a cigarette, lit it and took a deep breath of it. "Nasty Muggle habit, don't judge" He looked away, towards the night sky.
"How do you know?" rolling my eyes at his comment.
Draco looked at me and spoke "I always knew but I just waited until you found out about it. You deserve better." he took another puff. "You may be a Mudblood, but your still better than Saint Potter," he turned to look at me and proceeded to offered the cigarette to me, I just looked at it.
He smiled and said "It won't hurt; I usually do it when I have so much on my mind." I recognized smoking was terrible for my health but I took a puff and tried it. I coughed and he laughed and told me to try again and I did. It was better; we stayed like that sharing back and forth until it finished.
Once it was done I broke the silence by asking him "Should I take him back if he asks me too?" He looked at me and said, "Do what your heart tell you to do. But remember you deserve better" and with that he left. Shocked that Draco Malfoy was not just civil he was actually kind.
Why? Why does fate make us suffer?
There's a curse between us
Between me and you
Entering common room with the smell of smoke and Draco's cologne on my clothes, I realized he wasn't such a prat. Draco was just a misunderstood like everyone. As I made my way into the common area I had full intentions to go up to bed. Harry was sitting in front of the fireplace, upon seeing me; he patted the other side of couch. I sighed and went to sit next to him. He turned face me and spoke.
"We need to talk" I just nodded, while looking at the fire roar. The warmth was refreshing amongst the cold night.
"I'm sorry, I am so sorry Hermione. God I have been an idiot and a bastard. Please take me back. It didn't mean a thing I swear." Harry tried to hold my hand and I pull away and move over a bit, making sure their was more than enough space between us.
"Harry, if it didn't mean a thing then, why did you do it? I am, not good enough for you? Damn it! Harry we have been together for a while and I…I…. I love you. But cannot I stay in love with you if you don't love me back. I cannot be with someone who doesn't want to be with me" Tears finally made their way down my face for the second time tonight.
What have you done?
"This is your fault. Bullocks, Harry. You could have broken up with me, if you wanted to go off and explore. You do know that right? You are not stuck with me just like I am not stuck with you. How would you feel if I had cheated on you" I looked at him with pure anger and disappointment.
Would you mind if I killed you?
Would you mind if I tried to, cause you have
Turned into my worst enemy?
"You wouldn't dare. You won't because it's not you Hermione, it's not who you are." Harry states with a small smile.
"What is that what you think?" Outraged I hiss, clearly upset at his smugness, this is not the Harry I love.
"Come on it was a mistake, it won't happen again. But come Hermione, we will get over this-" He states as he tries to sit closer to me.
"Don't come on, Hermione me. I am tried and exhausted so excuse me. Have a wonderful night Harry Potter" And hurry up the stairs towards the girls dormitories and leave him just sitting there in shock. I ended up crying myself to sleep. Great the third time tonight. Screw you Harry Potter.
You carry hate that I feel
It's over now
What have you done?
What have you done now?
In the morning I woke up late but I immediately thank God and Merlin it was a weekend. I took a shower and changed to at least look human. I stared at my reflection in the mirror and just as I though bloodshot eyes. Casting a quick spell I feel them alleviate and I at least look human. I quickly made my way to the Great Hall for breakfast. Upon entering I saw everyone staring at me, looking around my eyes found Cho nursing a bad bruise from where my hex landed. Smirking, I caught Draco's eye and with the subtlest nod of his head, he turned away. I made my way towards the Gryffindor table and sat down at the end of the table ignoring everyone's stares and obvious gossip. At that moment I knew what I had to do. I grabbed a piece of toast as I ran every possible scenario flying through my head. I felt Harry's stare as I made my way out and I knew my revenge would be sweet.
Next part will be out within a week. So review please. And the next chapter for Baby Love shall be out the same or after that week.
