Hermione Granger put her coat on a rack and looked around. Some people were soaked from the rain, or freezing from the cold but she could recognize everyone. It was at the 10 Year Hogwarts reunion.
There
were nights when the wind was so cold
That my body froze in bed
If
I just listened to it
Right outside the window
There were days
when the sun was so cruel
That all the tears turned to dust
And
I just knew my eyes were
Drying up forever
Hermione
walked into the Great Hall and smiled at all her friends, "Hermione…"
A voice said from behind her.
She spun around, "Yeah? Oh, it's you." She said as she saw who it was.
"We need to talk, and you know it." He said.
"No, I never want to remember what happened." She started walking away, but he followed.
I
finished crying in the instant that you left
And I can't remember
where or when or how
And I banished every memory you and I had
ever made
"Stop it." Hermione said, knowing that they really did have to talk. But she had tried to erase all the memories between them; they almost were, until he said her name.
He grabbed her arm and pulled her in, their faces inches apart. Hermione looked away, anywhere but in his blue-gray eyes, and his pure blonde hair. She rubbed her eyes to keep from crying. Just thinking about the good times…And the bad ones brought tears to Hermione's eye.
But
when you touch me like this
And you hold me like that
I just
have to admit
That it's all coming back to me
When I touch you
like this
And I hold you like that
It's so hard to believe
but
It's all coming back to me
(It's all coming back, it's all
coming back to me now)
"Don't you remember Hermione? We were so in love…"
"We were young naïve and needed someone in our lives."
"Don't lie 'Mione. You know what happened is real. It's something that happened and no matter how hard you try, you will NEVER forget."
There
were moments of gold
And there were flashes of light
There were
things I'd never do again
But then they'd always seemed
right
There were nights of endless pleasure
It was more than
any laws allow
Baby Baby
Hermione
backed away from him, "They were almost erased…Until…"
"Until what…" He said looking deep into her hazel eyes.
"Until
I saw you." She turned around and headed up the stairs to an empty
classroom, closing the door behind her.
If I kiss you like
this
And if you whisper like that
It was lost long ago
But
it's all coming back to me
If you want me like this
And if you
need me like that
It was dead long ago
But it's all coming back
to me
It's so hard to resist
And it's all coming back to me
I
can barely recall
But it's all coming back to me now
But it's
all coming back
He
rushed in after her, and opened the door. He walked towards her
sitting on the window sill, "Don't run Hermione, I know, you know
that we need to talk."
"But don't you remember we broke each others hearts." She said between sobs putting her head on the window.
He leaned against the window right in front of her, but giving her space to cry, "But then we got back together. We belong together. Destiny never fails."
"You cheated on me. And anyways, wouldn't I still love you if we were meant for each other."
"True
love can wait."
"You'll be waiting all your life." She
said angrily looking up at him, but maybe even a little bit of guilt
lying in her eyes around her smeared mascara. 'She's so
beautiful.' He thought putting some stray hairs behind her ear.
There
were those empty threats and hollow lies
And whenever you tried to
hurt me
I just hurt you even worse
And so much deeper
"I
can do that."
"Just move. I don't ever want to talk 'bout this again." She got up.
"But don't you remember? Our strolls, our midnight swims or midnight walks in the forest!"
"Stop living in the past, and move on." Hermione mumbled, trying to force the good times out of her mind.
There
were hours that just went on for days
When alone at last we'd
count up all the chances
That were lost to us forever
"Hermione no. I can't, I love you still, and will wait, even 'till the day I die I'll love you. No matter what happens… I love you."
"No…You can't. It's impossible." Hermione started crying again.
"Impossible is possible, that's why there's still possible in the word impossible."
"We're better off apart."
But
you were history with the slamming of the door
And I made myself
so strong again somehow
And I never wasted any of my time on you
since then
"No we aren't. Just think about all the things we did. Laughing, playing, loving."
"Stop, just stop."
But
if I touch you like this
And if you kiss me like that
It was so
long ago
But it's all coming back to me
If you touch me like
this
And if I kiss you like that
It was gone with the wind
But
it's all coming back to me
(It's all coming back, it's all coming
back to me now)
"Hermione,
talk about it. It'll never leave you. It will haunt you forever if
you don't."
Hermione started taking deep breaths the finally said wiping her eyes, "I loved the times, I would do anything to relive them."
There
were moments of gold
And there were flashes of light
There were
things we'd never do again
But then they'd always seemed
right
There were nights of endless pleasure
It was more than
all your laws allow
Baby, Baby, Baby
She laughed for a second remembering all the crazy things they did and said. "Same, and we can. Hermione." He put his arm on hers.
She shook her head, "No we can't. What's done is done, I need to move on to…Better things. Without you in my life."
When
you touch me like this
And when you hold me like that
It was
gone with the wind
But it's all coming back to me
When you see
me like this
And when I see you like that
Then we see what we
want to see
All coming back to me
The flesh and the
fantasies
All coming back to me
I can barely recall
But it's
all coming back to me now
"But did you forgive me? You know I'm so sorry, I would give everything I have back to change all the things I did."
"Y-Y-Yes I think did." Hermione said with an unsure voice.
If
you forgive me all this
If I forgive you all that
We forgive
and forget
And it's all coming back to me
When you see me like
this
And when I see you like that
We
see just what we want to see
All coming back to me
The flesh
and the fantasies
All coming back to me
I can barely recall but it's all coming back to me now
"Will you think about it, and if you ever want to, we could get back together. Here's my number and address." He said starting to write it down.
"No. Don't write it down. I don't need it, I'm sorry. I just can't. You left me alone crying too many time."
"But Hermione…"
"I said I'm sorry. You can't change my mind…" She got up.
"You'll always know I'll love you." He said putting a hand on her hip and pulling her in for a kiss.
She kissed back but moved away quickly, "Please…" He wiped away her tears, "Draco…" She sniffed, "No…Malfoy. Stop. Good-bye, just move on. For your own good."
(It's
all coming back to me now)
And when you kiss me like this
(It's
all coming back to me now)
And when I touch you like that
(It's
all coming back to me now)
If you do it like this
(It's all
coming back to me now)
And if we,
Hermione turned around and left, leaving Draco in tears this time.
