IMPOSSIBLE
Chapter Four
The Impossible Confirmed
There is a long moment where I simply stare at him, my jaw practically reaching my quaking knees. This is the best news I've ever heard, yet I only half believe it. Surely he must just be messing with me. He must be! But Edward's not a liar. I don't think he's told a lie since I met him, and he's certainly not mean.
"Are you serious?" I ask. He slowly nods.
"You – You swear?" He nods again, quicker this time.
"I solemnly swear, Draco Malfoy," he says, looking me straight in the eyes. I gape at him, and my breathing is becoming funny. I think I can't breath. I'm so happy I'm going to cry. Or barf. Or faint. Or cry and barf and faint all at the same. Right now, it doesn't matter I have to kill Dumbledore. It doesn't matter the Dark Lord is out there, watching my every move and plotting to take over the world. Nothing matters right now except for this. Edward Cullen likes me. I take a deep breath, and try to regain my composure. He looks at me expectantly. He wants to know what I'm thinking. Whether I'm going to hate him and run, or like him back.
"Draco," he says slowly. "I'm almost positive I'm in love with you." I smile.
"Thank Merlin!" I say, relieved. I think my voice actually cracked a little bit. He smiles too, and for a moment we're just sitting there, grinning like idiots. Then, before I even know what's happening, we kiss. It's the strangest thing I've ever done, kissing a guy in public, and if my dad saw he'd throw a fit, but I don't care. Right now is the happiest moment of my whole bloody life, and I don't give a damn what anybody else thinks.
