Even sun seemed to be giving them some more time together as it slowly crept up next morning, peeping through the bathroom window which last night became a host to stars as they witnessed the change one little confession has brought. Finally after seven years of controlling their feeling from letting the flow, the Gryffindor princess and Slytherin prince were together.
Draco woke up first, squinting his eyes as suddenly all the bright light entered in. After adjusting his vision he looked around, shocked for a few seconds about what he was doing in bathroom but as his eyes fell on the beautiful girl sitting next to her,sleeping peacefully as if not sleeping on hard floor but on a soft feather mattress, the memories from last night flood his mind, making him smile ear to ear.
He lifted their hands which were tightly bonded by their fingers. As soon as his eyes fell on their, particularly his hand, his smile vanished filling his eyes with regret and guilt. Although he knew that now the Dark Mark was just a reminder of his past mistakes and will never burn against his skin after all Voldemort was dead, he was gone and Draco along with a few Slytherins had returned to prove that they were not really bad and were just in the dark side coz of their families, to prove, that he in particular would do anything in his power to gain their trust and not breaking it ever. He was so lost in his thoughts that he didn't realised that Hermione woke up and was looking at him with a dreamy smile. He smiled back at her.
"you up beautiful?" he said breaking the silence
Hermione moved back as she heard his voice "so...so...it wasn't any other dream?" she said
"dream? So you've been dreaming about me Granger?" Draco said with a cocky smirk
Hermione could feel the heat rise in her cheeks "wha- whatever you said last night...was that true?" she asked
"every word of it" he said looking in her hopeful eyes
Hermione could see the sincerity in his eyes and knew he meant it by the way he said it, now and last night.
They looked at each other for what seemed like an hour but was merely a few minutes before they were interrupted by someone...
