My Man - Lea Michele
Oh my man I love him so, he'll never know, oh my life is such despair, but I don't care, when he takes me in his arms, the world is bright.
Draco would never understand how much Hermione loved him. When she smiled, she thought of him. When she laughed, she thought of Draco. Basically anything she did, she thought of Draco. And he would never know, you couldn't ever know. It would ruin her. And break her heart becasue she knew he wouldn't like her back.
Hermione would cry at night thinking of Draco. She would think about how much she loved him, and wanted him, but couldnt have him. And it would kill her inside. I was causing her so much despair she didn't know what to do with herself anymore. But the sad part was, she didn't even care. She didn't even mind that she couldn't have him.
Watching him from afar was all she needed.
Then it happened.
Professor McGonagall walked swiftly as Draco and Hermione trailed behind her, on their way towards their new dormritory they would be sharing for the rest of the year. Hermione took a sideways glance at Draco and saw that he was looking up at the hundreds of portraits that lined the walls. She giggled as he tripped on his own two feet, not paying attention to where he was walking. "How dare you laugh at me, Mudblood" she winced at his last word. No matter how many times he said it, she didn't know if she would ever get used to it. She turned towards him, tears in her eyes "You'd think a war that almost killed off the entire school would have made a difference on your beliefs and morals, but I guess not" she spat, a tear falling from her eye as she shook her head and looked away. Draco furrowed his brow and dropped his jaw, the words stinging. He hadn't meant to say that word.. and it had been such a reflex by then that he hadn't even noticed he said it.
"I'm sorry, Herm-Hermione" he said looking back towards the portraits that lined the walls.
They finally arrived at their new home for the year, said the password to the portrait, and stepped into the common room. It had two couches, a desk and a large bookshelf. It was dark wood with tan colored fabrics and deep reds and greens. There were two stair cases on each side of the common room, one with red carpet, and the other green. Each knowing what stairs they had to take.
"Well here we are, your password is "unity" and there shall be no hanky panky" Proffessor McGonagall said with a nod and a slight smile, knowing the two were on no terms for "hanky panky" and with that, she exited the room, leaving the two standing there awkwardly.
"I really am sorry Granger, I'm not like that anymore.. " Draco finally said after a few silent moments. "It's fine you stupid git" Hermione said with a smile. Draco looked at her, and melted. That smile did things to him. "I think we could be civil to one another, nice maybe" Draco said. Hoping for the best reply possible. "Truce?" Hermione said, opening her arms, and embracing him in a hug.
"Truce." he replied, gratefully. And then the world was bright, all right.
