A/N: Since you wanted me to elaborate this story, here it is. :)
Mine
Inspired by Taylor Swift
One: Starbucks
Hermione stepped into the restaurant, and then flagged down the waiter. Nearby, a couple were angrily discussing something about their relationship, making Hermione remember her and Ron's short stint as a couple, making her lips twitch up.
flashback
"No, Ron. I will work after we get married. I will not settle down as a lowly housewife!" Hermione snapped back.
"Lowly housewife? SO that's what you think of my mother? A lowly housewife?" replied Ron.
"Absolutely not! You know exactly that I do not think of your mother like that!" Hermione said.
"Then you will agree and stay at home once we get married, doing what's expected of women." Ron said in a finalizing voice.
"You know what, this is not working out." Replied Hermione.
"That's because you're so stubborn and so prideful!"
"I am not!"
"Yes you are."
"How about you then? You're just the same, if not more."
"Fine!"
end of flashback
"What can I get you Miss?" he said. Hermione looked up and recognized him.
"Malfoy?" she said.
"Granger?" he replied.
"Fancy seeing you here." Both chorused, earning a smile from both parties.
"Well, I never pegged you as a waiter, in a Muggle establishment at that." Said Hermione, not being able to hide a grin.
"Why am I not surprised? Tell you what; let's continue this... talk later. I need to work." Replied Draco. "What's your order Mrs. Weasley?"
"It's still Miss Granger actually."
"Oh?"
"Yeah."
"Okay... so, what would you like?"
"Just a cup of coffee, and a slice of Angel Food Cake."
"Comin' right up!"
A few minutes later, Draco came back with Hermione's order, and with curt nod, he left Hermione in peace. She took a sip of coffee, and then took out her notebook. She opened it, and started an entry.
September 1st
Sipping coffee by the clear glass of the window
I wonder if there's someone waiting for me
Someone who'll treat me as a queen
Yet scold me like a kid.
Turning around, I see a couple fighting
Just like how we used to be
Staying together because everyone said so
Oh, it was a silly reason for me
We were much too young
Much too naive
To think of marrying back then,
When all we needed was peace
Right now, I wonder,
Why is he here?
Why haunt after all these days,
After all these years?
Several years have passed,
A round seven, that is
I'm longing for the Express,
But I don't want to remember less.
Forgive me for thinking about things senseless
But that's how I was raised to be
Curiosity killed the cat
But Aurora was awakened by that.
She sighed, and then read her work, analyzing it carefully, reading between the lines. Bottomline, she realized that the past doesn't go away. Sighing once more, she finished her coffee and cake, left a few bills on the table and left.
Draco, after serving Hermione her order, asked for a few minutes break from his rather sexy supervisor, and the flirty lady agreed, laying a lingering touch on him. He thanked her and proceeded to the "Employees Only" room and wrote in his journal.
Starbucks is what you call this place
Coffee abounds and so does love
But if you know where to look,
You'll see hatred too.
By the window a witch sits,
Everyone's unaware of her power
Except a deceptive Slytherin
Who wonders, "Why is she here?"
Perhaps I'll never know,
Perhaps she'll never tell
After all, a little snog
Was the only thing we've ever shared.
Back when wounds were bleeding
Hurt, sorrow and regret
Branded into our flesh
We were much too young, much too young.
Draco closed his eyes and reread his poem, satisfied. Fixing up himself, he walked out of the room and caught sight of Hermione just as her body blended into the crowd outside. He walked to her table and cleaned it, taking the money. A slight glint caught his eye and he bent under the table to see what it was.
Hermione's calling card, with her name, address, number and e-mail, that's what it was.
Starbucks, I love you, thought Draco, grinning.
