money, but I wish I did.
AN: My 2nd attempt at a Draco/Hermione fic. My first wasn't too bad, and considering that it was my first FanFic, I was amazed at the number of reviews I received. So if any of you read Evanescent Enchantment, I thank you again for your reviews, and here's the new fic I promised. A little late, but never late than never! Love ya! ~ dangles~
~ If You Love Me ~ (Written from Draco's POV)
Prolouge
When I arrived at King's Cross on September First for my seventh year at Hogwarts, I had no idea what awaited me at school. The summer was hell, to say the least. Infact, hell was an understatement. My father passed, not that that's the bad thing. That was actually the highlight of my vacation. He suffered a severe heart-attack when I informed him that I had no interest in becoming a Death Eater like him, and I didn't care at all when the medics pronounced him dead. The thing that killed me this summer was the death of my mother not two weeks after Lucius's passing. My mother was always my anchor in the world, even though my father had her wrapped around his finger. Although she never let him see, my mother would've stood next to me if she had to choose between Lucius and I... Her death was the birth of the new Draco. My old personality disappeared at the end of sixth year, and the death of it was when I defied my father, and the new me shone through after the death of the sweetest, most devoted person in my life.
My thoughts trailed on and on over the events of the summer as the train arrived and a man took my trunk and carried it into the Head Student cabin, which I was to share with Hermione Granger. I was skeptical about the appointments at first, but only because I knew how she'd react when she and I met again. She wouldn't believe that I could change, and wouldn't let me convince her... Or so I thought.
