A/N : I do not own anything - except maybe some characters I make up. Oh and another thing Snape isn't dead.

A bright cheerful morning celebrated Hermione as she awoke from her sleep. She couldn't stop grinning and blushing from the events that happened last night. Lying on the bed she tried recalling the points in her life that made her believe that he was the one. Feeling awestruck she reminisced at how they ended together.

3 years ago:

"Granger" A familiar voice called out, Hermione looked up from the book she was reading. Surprised was clearly evident on her face as Draco Malfoy stood at the compartment of the heads on the train going to Hogwarts.

"Malfoy" she uttered coldly. The war made their relationship better but strained.

Better in a sense that they were not throwing hexes at each other every second they were together. Hermione wasn't still convinced that Malfoy has changed and turn his back on anything that can be related to the dark arts. He closed the door and sat opposite her in the farthest possible corner near the window and became quiet. They didn't talk nor did they make eye contact throughout the rest of the ride. It was the end and the beginning of something they both didn't knew.

"Crying loudly in the bathroom wouldn't help a bit" Moaning Myrtle said happily.

Hermione wanted to hex everyone Myrtle, Ron Lavander, EVERYONE!

"He's a cheating bastard isn't he? I had never experienced that because I died" she screeched and flew inside the toilet. Hermione ran outside the bathroom stall before Myrtle decides to comeback and laugh at her. She went straight to the heads common room hoping Malfoy wouldn't be there, but the fates decided where's the fun in that. Upon saying the password the door suddenly opened and out came Malfoy fuming.

"Granger what the hell, you didn't come to the meeting, we were supposed to give out orders to the prefects, even your boyfriend Weasel wasn't there." Hermione stayed silent as he continued on with his rant.

"So what, instead of attending you decided to go dally and make out in some secret corridor?" she saw red at the comment.

"Shut up you don't know anything. And for the record, I don't believe any of the shite you said about turning your back on the Dark Side. I was even surprised you were chosen to be the Headboy being a coward and all that, just like your father." Before she knew it the words came flying out off her mouth without any filter.

Malfoy stood there shell shocked, she could see a lot of emotion on his face but pain and anger was evident. Her eyes grew when the harshness of her words sunk in, never had she uttered something so vile in her entire life even if Malfoy was at the receiving end.

"I - " he cut him off before she could say anything.

"Next Meeting you will handle it I have something important to attend." he said it with a voice laced with so much contempt. He then turned around went upstairs to his room, before she could say an apology.

News spread like wild fire in Hogwarts, students heard different stories ranging from Ron having an affair with 3 different girls to Hermione being a not good in the sack. She really didn't care because she was more concerned about her problems with Malfoy.

Hermione and Ginny was situated at the back part of the library where no one can hear them talk.

"I am sorry 'Mione, I heard what Ron did to you. He's stupid don't let him get to you, even though he's my brother I won't let him off easily. If you want I'll talk some sense into the git."

"It's ok Gin, I know we were not always happy together but I thought we could fix it, if it wasn't meant to be then we could always part ways amiably. What I didn't understand was the cheating; we could've ended our relationship in a more meaningful way not like that. Look at you and Harry even though you two broke up you still remain great friends" Ginny hugged Hermione.

"Don't worry Mione you'll find someone better look at me I'm single but I am happy." Hermione smiled and thanked her for always being there.

"So why are we even here Hermione? You said you needed help on something right?" Hermione fiddled with her hands, she wasn't sure how she would broach the Malfoy problem to Ginny without having her turn red.

"Uhmm, it's complicated but I screwed up"

"Ok. How would I help you when I don't even know the problem?" Ginny was being patient with her, she could see.

"WhenRoncheatedIwassomadandth efirstpersonIcouldfindwasMal foyandIsaidsomethingsthatIsh ouldn'thaveandnoweverythingsallwro ng" Hermione prepared for the onslaught that was Ginevra Weasley.

"Hermione Jean Granger you will tell me what is wrong and will tell it in a way that I will understand or so help me Merlin if you don't." Hermione, not wanting to be at the wrong side of her, took a deep breath and told Ginny every nook and cranny she could.

"Ginny I can't stand it. I know I was wrong but we should talk about it. I mean he should give me a chance to apologize and explain myself." she hasn't seen Malfoy in two weeks and the guilt was growing inside her. They weren't even seeing each other at their shared common room or even at class and they have 4 classes together! He would come late and leave early before she could even see or talk to him. Apparently Malfoy has a Granger danger tracker that will warn him if she's 20 meters from her, if she didn't know better.

"Hermione listen give him time, what you said was really..." she glared at her.

"OK! Don't worry, I'll think of an idea on how we can corner him so you could apologize." Hermione merely nodded. She knew Ginny would think of something, her brain couldn't work right now with all the conflicting emotions inside of her. As they were brainstorming of plans to get him to talk to her, they didn't see the figure who was listening at the dark corner of the library.

Ron was the last person she wanted to see right now. Ginny still haven't done anything only saying she's got it covered.

"'Mione can we talk" he asked. Hermione not wanting too turned around and walked faster.

"All the talking is done Ron after I found you with her. You've said what you've wanted to say for the past couple of months" she tried to think of a way out with the crowd of people going against them.

"'Mione please listen to me" he kept in pace with her as she tried to lose him.

"'Mione it's because of this attitude that I was susceptible to Lavander's advances" How dare he, she thought.

"Wow Ron, now it's my fault. Bravo Ron for the second time around you have really made me want to hex you until your grandkids can feel it" Hermione glared at him and walked away

"Hermione will you please stop, listen to me, I know you're angry but let's just point out the fact that I'am the only one who is willing to go out with you" She gasped at the statement and turned around to face him. This time around a lot of students heard the statement and were frozen by the scene unfolding in front of them. She was about to utter a stinging hex on him when someone's fist collided with Ron's face.

"Nobody disrespects the Headgirl, Ten points from Gryffindor." Malfoy tended to his knuckles. He picked up his belongings and walked away from the scene never even turning to face a very shocked Hermione.

"Malfoy wait" for the first time in weeks Hermione saw him and the only thing that registered in her mind was to run after him, apologize, and thank him, not caring what happened to Ron she did what was on her mind. He was faster than her and it became difficult for her to go after him, he suddenly turned around a corner and when she did he was already out of sight. Hermione was annoyed that she lost him again; she was about to turn back when a hand drew her inside an empty classroom.

"What do you want Granger" he closed the door loudly behind her. She was stunned after not seeing him for weeks he was so close to her, their faces were only inches apart. Both didn't speak but keep looking at each other.

"Well Granger, if you don't have anything to say to me I might as well go, you're wasting my time" he was ready to leave when she caught his hand on the handle.

"Wait Malfoy" he stared at the soft hand that held his calloused. She quickly snatched her hands away from his and started to apologize.

"I am so sorry Malfoy, I didn't know what came over me that time. I was angry, hurt, confused and you were the only available person I could let my anger out. I didn't mean what I've said. And I totally understand if you won't forgive me but at least can we be civil with each other." He was silent which means he was contemplating about what she said, because of this she was a little bit hopeful.

"Don't worry Granger. I've heard worse, if that's all then I'll go" she moved out of the way to let him pass, when he was nearly out of the door Hermione whispered a soft thank you to him which he didn't acknowledge or replied to, she didn't know if he even heard it.
