Disclaimer: Not mines. That is all I am saying because I want to do this story before the ideas ooze out of my head.
Author's Note: Real quick- Send me a review if you think I should make a story- the song that its based on will either be our song by Taylor swift, or here without you by three doors down,,, I think that's who its by. Well, anyways, this would have been done and up by now, but my laptop broke with the finished& UN published story on it. Therefore, I was very sad and did not have the soul to rewrite it until now. So here it is-
Can't you feel my heart beat fast, I want this to last.
Need you by my side.
Cause everytime we touch, I feel this static.
And everytime we kiss, I reach for the sky.
When they were almost to the castle, Draco was quite aggravated. Since they had gotten off that damn cold ground, he had been thinking about some things.
"It really is early in the day… and lunch isn't for another hour. Who is to say Hermione and me can't just spend some more time together. Hell, we can just spend the whole bloody day together, won't matter to me. However, what if she is just spending time with me because she is desperate for company? What if when Potter and Weasel-head get back, she'll just go back to hating me? Damn I sound like a 13-year-old girl. We have only hung out for three days. Well, I think it was three… Well, it will be four if she wants to go to Hogsmeade with me tomorrow. I doubt it. Ugh, what is wrong with me? I am acting all self-conscious. Wait, why is she looking at me? And why is she smiling? Is my hair messed up? OH MERLIN MY HAIR MUST BE MESSED UP. Oh, no its not. Ill shake it. Shaking your hair is sexy mostly only when I do it. Damn. I will just ask her if she wants to spend the rest of the day with me, and if she does, then later, ill ask her to come with me to Hogsmeade. Okay. Enough thinking now."
Draco looked over at Hermione and smirked. She looked so pretty in the sun, or what was there of it. He looked down at his feet. He had forgotten he was walking. He hated the way his new shoes submerged in the snow. He knew that snow came form water, and water messed up new shoes. He would have to repair them with his wand. Unless this was magical snow. Then he would have to make a bloody potion. He would ask Hermione to help him…
He gasped when he saw that they had reached the cobble stone path. How did they get so far so fast?? He wanted to ask her when they were still outside, so they could go straight to his room… I mean the library. hehe
"Um, hey Hermione?"
"Yeah?"
"Um… since it's kind of early in the day and it isn't even lunch yet, I was wondering if you wanted to hang out for the rest of the day. And if you want, we could pretend we were in Kindygarden... that is what it's called right? But yea, like in Kindygarden in the muggle world and have a sleep over. And I promise I will not be nasty. Ill pretend to be a girl if you want." Draco took a breath. He was turning purple from saying that so fast.
Hermione stopped walking and Draco almost fell. Then he came back in front of her and looked down in her eyes. She bit her lower lip and then flung her arms around him very tight.
"Sure Draco! We will have fun. It is somewhat weird that I trust you already, but I do. And you don't have to act like a girl."
Draco smiled, really smiled, and squeezed the air out of Hermione. He picked her up and spun her around a few times.
"Alrighty Hermioneee, come on."
Draco held one of her small hands in his big one and started running.
Hermione was not as fast as he was, so she sort of dragged on the ground a little bit, but she was happy.
"Draco, where are we going?" she laughed.
Draco turned around and looked at her. Then he chuckled and said, "If I tell you, you won't let me bring you, and then ill have to carry you there, and then you'll hate me because I won't let you go. So just come on."
Hermione's mouth dropped open, but she quickly closed it. She trusted him…
They were now in the castle, and they were still running full speed. They almost knocked over the Divination teacher and almost stepped on Mrs. Norris.
They came to a cross hallway. One way to a few class rooms, one way to the Astronomy tower, one way to the staircase, and one way to the dungeons and the Slytherin Dormitories.
Hermione was sure that they would head for the stairs (or Astronomy tower, knowing Draco), but he sped to the left, heading down many stairs leading to the dungeons.
"Merlin, Draco, don't make me go in the Slytherin dorms."
"Why not? I have my own room."
"So do I, but still."
Drano stopped in front of the portrait that led to the Common Room and pouted.
"Come on Hermione, I have something for you."
"Nu uhh"
"Yea, I do."
"Nu uhh"
"Yea huh. Now come on. Slime roots and munks weed."
The portrait of a headless equestrian muttered"Mudblood" somehow and opened. Draco cursed it under his breath, pulled Hermione through the green, black, and silver room, and headed to his empty dorm.
Hermione held onto Draco's arm with both of her hands. She knew she was safe as long as they did not run into a seventh year or something. She was with the king of Slytherin. Hermione could not stop wondering what it was that Draco had for her. And she honestly could not wait to get to the dorm. Before she knew it, they were there.
Smiled at how neat Draco's bed was even when no one was around. Hers was sloppy. She did not see any reason to be neat because she would just sleep in the bed later on.
"Go ahead and sit. It will not bite you. Unless you're Potter or Weasley."
Hermione took her shoes off and sat cross-legged on his bed.
"Draco, you do know that they are my friends."
"I'm trying hard to forget." Draco muttered, becoming very interested in his feet.
Hermione got up and came over to Draco. She hugged him for a while and about fell asleep because she was so comfortable.
"Draco, I won't stop spending time with you when they are here. And if they wonder where I go everyday, I will just straight up tell them that I have been with you. Okay?"
Draco smiled and kissed her on the cheek. "Alright 'Mione. Now sit back down because I have something for you remember?"
Hermione let go of him, went over to the bed and nodded.
He laughed and walked over to his side table. He picked up his wand and pointed to locked marble box on it alohamora and it popped open.
Inside was a necklace. The necklace had a pure gold chain with a gold heart charm that had five small pea sized(real) diamonds lining the outside, while emeralds lined the inside of the heart.. It was worth almost as much as Malfoy Manor was.
Draco thought about what his mother had said in secret after his dad had beaten her one time this summer.
"Draco, take this box and keep it in your Dormitory at Hogwarts. It will be safe there."
"What should I do with it?"
Narcissa put a frail hand on her only son's strong shoulder.
"Give to a special girl. It does not matter who it is. As long as you love them. Even if it is a muggleborn. I never hated them you know. It is just that your father would have killed me if he found out. But just follow your heart. I know something special will happen to you this year at school for you little dragon."
"Mother, I will, I promise. Please do not leave father next year. He will kill you. I will not be able to deal with father. I cannot handle him alone. He'll be worse with you gone."
"Draco, when you leave for Hogwarts, take everything you can. Then, never come back. Go stay with Blaise or someone. He is on his own now too, since his parents are trying to escape from Voldemort. Oh, and that necklace is enchanted. As long as the girl you give it to wears it, she will be safe from all harmful curses. Even the killing curse. So choose whom you give it too carefully. I would suggest not giving it to Pansy though. Seeing as her faithfulness is equal to the amount of magic a muggle has."
Draco had hugged his mother.
"Thank you Mother. And you are careful when you leave father. I hope your right about this year being special…I will write to you."
"I will be careful as you should be. Now go. Your father is soon to be returning. Don't worry about me, I'll be fine."
Draco put down his wand and turned to Hermione.
"Close your eyes." Hermione closed her eyes, and Draco waved his hand in front of her face to make sure. Then he took out the necklace, and held it up. He took a deep breath and looked at it. Should he give it to her? It would mean he loved her. He did not know if he loved her. They had only been on speaking terms for a few days. However, he knew already that soon enough he would love her. Not that he would let her know. He gained his confidence.
"You can open your eyes now."
Review.
Authors Note: I am going to do the 5th chapter today. So it should be up later on. I lied- next chapter is necklace reaction, sleepover (fun) Christmas-letters from Harry and Ron. And Narcissa (for Draco DUH). Then we will skip a couple weeks and go to when everyone comes back. DRAMA DRAMA DRAMA. They will not be official until like chapter 6 maybe because ill make it skip like a month or so, so that they were hanging out for a while.
Much love- Me
