"So, you really wanna play this game?"
"Well Granger, its my only way to redemption with you, so, why not?" Draco said, dusting his hands on his trousers, warily settling down on the grass.
She turned towards him."I would say you've already been redeemed but you don't believe me. so let's starts then. okay, colours. if there was any colour that you would have to wear, everyday, for the rest of your life, which one would it be?"
"Grey."
"Like your eyes?"
He sighed lightly."No. Like my life."
"Oh." she cleared her throat awkwardly. "Next. if there was anything in your life that you wouldn't mind reliving again, what would it be?"
"The Yule ball."
"That's interesting. Why though?"
"Do you really have to know?"
"Well, we have to do this 'getting to know and forgive' thing somehow."
"Well, there was this certain individual who managed to light up the whole place."
"Don't tell me that it was Pansy Parkinson."
"No, Granger. it was you."
"Oh.Oh."
"You looked..uh..really good..that day."
She blushed. "Uh..thanks. okay, next. Uh…elements. water, air, fire, earth"
…..and the game went on and as the hours passed, the sun set to reveal the beautiful stars above them; yet they both were so immersed with each other they failed to notice it all…having eyes only for each other.
It was safe to say that Draco was getting more comfortable now. His jacket lay discarded beside him and his answers were getting more flirtatious.
"Okay, so, places." She turned to face him, her eyes as sparkling as the swirling stars above them. "If you could be anywhere on the planet right now, where would you go?"
"Ooh, that's a toughie." He feigned contemplation for a moment, instead focusing on the way the wet grass felt beneath his back. She smiled, waiting. "I'd say… hmm… in your bed."
Her laugh took him by surprise.
He just stared at her, not laughing. he could already see himself getting slapped for this if she realized….
"Wait. you…are serious."
He gulped nervously.
"Maybe? i mean, don't get me wrong Granger, you're beautiful and wonderful and brilliant and you're so intelligent its intimidating, and you're just this phenomenal human being that I couldn't help getting attr-"
She kissed him. And time stood still for the both of them.
when she pulled back, her eyes sparkled like the star-lit sky above them and her cheeks were flushed from the lack of air. And her hair was strewn all over the place. She'd never looked more beautiful.
then she smiled mischievously.
"I think i would like to visit your favorite place sometime soon. Preferably with you. Care to join me?"
She bit her lip in anticipation as he just stared at her, shocked.
"Uh…Draco?"
"Yes. Fuck Yes."
he quickly lifted her up and and slung her over his shoulder, her tinkling laughter sounding like music to his ears.
Well, the jacket lay forgotten till the following morning.
Dedicated to delicate-cherry just for being awesome! love you loads! mmmwwwaaahh!
