A/N: This is just something I was thinking about in class today. Draco holds some ressemblence to one of my classmates (Only I'm not in a romantic relationship with him). Have fun, review if you feel like it.

Disclaimer: If it was mine, DH would have ended in a D/H orgy.

She hated the way his hair would fly around when he was nodding or violently shaking his head

She hated the way his hair would fly around when he was nodding or violently shaking his head. She hated the cruel voice which could be heard when he was talking to her, or about her, for that matter. When he was mocking or humiliating her. She hated his ideals and his way to look at life, so careless and indifferent, as if nobody could harm him or his little perfect world. She hated that he hated her friends and wouldn't miss a chance to tell her how stupid they were to fight for the wizarding world, which, even without Voldemort there, would go down in a war. She hated him, and his cocky attitude. He was just some ordinary guy in her class.

But when he nodded or shook his head at her, because they were discussing something, and his hair would fly into his eyes, she loved it. When he would whisper something in her ear, with his silky voice. She loved the way he would tell her how he admired her, no matter her blood status, and she loved the short sparks of optimism regarding the wizarding world's future, rare and short, but existent. She loved his attitude towards her, when they were alone, when they were talking, or simply smiling at each other in class and nobody would see it. Or when they were safe inside their rooms and just lay on one of the couches, his arms safely wrapped around her. She loved his tender kisses, demanding, passionate, but so tender…

"Hermione!"

She turned around to look at the boy seated behind her, only the slightest hint of a smile on his lips.

"Yes."

"You don't have any parchment left by chance…?" What a smile. Yes, he was charming, in his own impossible way. She rummaged through her bag and produced a roll of parchment which she handed to him.

"Thanks." She mirrored his shy smile. He was cute.

Yes, definitely the man she loved. Hermione Granger loved Draco Malfoy. A lot.
