So, I fell in love with Weezer a few weeks back (I've always loved them, really. I guess it was sort of a rediscovering of love) and this is one of my favourite songs by them, so decided it was only right that I write a songfic about it for this story. ^^ I hope you enjoy it!
Also, if there's anybody good with making trailers for fanfictions and/or banners, see the note at the bottom. Thanks! ^^
Waste my days
Drown aways
It's just the thought of you in love with someone else
It breaks my heart to see you hangin' from your shelf
Keep Fishin'-Weezer
A warm breeze drifted across the grounds, ruffling its way through Draco's hair and scattering a few papers. Pansy, with the quick reflexes she had, reached out and stopped them from getting too far.
"Thanks," Draco said absently, shoving the parchment between the pages of his potions book.
Pansy stared at him sternly for a few seconds before sighing. "You need to start paying more attention, Draco. I understand you're in love -"
This startled Draco a little, but Pansy continued. "-but that's no reason to completely ignore your life."
"But I have to keep watching her," Draco replied quickly. "So many guys are after her...I have to make sure she stays single.
Pansy rolled her eyes. "Why?"
"Because-" he stopped to think. "Well, because-"
"Exactly," Pansy replied. "There is no reason. The only possible reason would be because you are an idiot."
"A jealous idiot," Blaise added. Pansy and Blaise shared a grin at Draco's expense. Draco just furrowed his brow and scowled.
"I am not. I'm just making sure she doesn't end up with the wrong guy. If I can't have her, then she shouldn't be with someone stupid."
Blaise shook his head at his best friend. "And who said you can't have her?"
Another question Draco couldn't answer.
"Right," Blaise replied. "No one. You're just too much of a chicken to ask her out."
"I am not!"
But it was too late. Both Blaise and Pansy were making fools of themselves, waddling around Draco with their arms bent, making the most ridiculous chicken sounds Draco had ever heard. Not that he'd heard many chicken noises.
"Fine," Draco said. "I'll prove you wrong."
"What, ask her out?" Blaise said. He laughed once. "Yeah right. I bet you ten galleons you'll chicken out." He couldn't resist one last chicken sound.
Draco's eyes narrowed. "Alright, it's a bet. I'll use the ten galleons to pay for her dinner when we go out. See you, morons."
The last thing he heard before he reached Hermione was "Morons?"
He smirked.
"Granger, I need to speak with you."
Hermione looked up from where she was seated with Harry and Ron. Since their "seventh year," the group hadn't been as cruel towards each other, but they hadn't really been friends, either. So he wasn't really surprised at the shocked look on Hermione's face, the wary look on Harry's face, and the aggressive, demented look on Ron's face.
"Erm..." Hermione said, looking at her friend's for an answer. They didn't have one. "Okay..."
Draco was so excited he had to steady himself against a tree before turning and leading Hermione across the grounds, towards a place out of hearing range of anyone from the school. Right outside the Forbidden Forest.
"What's going on?" Hermione asked suspiciously.
"I'm asking you out."
It was Hermione's turn to steady herself. She stared him for several moments before speaking. Or, at least trying to.
"Wh-wha-what?"
Draco smiled at her. She was so adorable like this, wasn't she?
"I'm asking you out," Draco replied. "See, I've got some pretty awful jealousy skills, and whenever I think about you coming to be in love with some other unworthy bloke, I can't stand it, and realise the only way I'll be happy is if you're with me." Draco grinned. "So, what do you say?"
"I say..." Hermione looked around, as if she'd lost something, or if she were looking for the answer on the ground. "I say..." She shook her head. "Heh. I guess so."
Draco blinked and his grin dropped. He hadn't really thought of any sort of outcome!
"Oh. Well then. I'll see you Saturday in the great hall? Hogsmeade together?"
Hermione laughed quietly. "Sure. I'd like that."
Hermione turned away from him then and walked back towards his friends.
Draco suddenly lost all of his energy and sunk to the ground.
Blaise and Pansy laughed at him. "He didn't think she'd say yes!" Blaise exclaimed.
"On the Brightside, though," Pansy said, "You got ten galleons and a date with Granger."
Draco grinned. What was the downside?
I hope you enjoyed this mini songfic! ^^
