AN: STILL DON'T OWN HARRY POTTER. SORRY FOR THE LONG WAIT. HOPE YOU ENJOY!
CHAPTER 10
The morning that Draco was due to arrive, Hermione wasn't there. She had an appearance on a morning talk show to promote the show tonight, the rest of the tour, and her album. The rest of the group was in the hotel room, having promised to watch. They were all excited to see Hermione on television.
Severus was somewhat disappointed, though. He had hoped to go with Hermione today to the television show, but for security purposes, and because she was going to be working, he stayed at the hotel. He thought back to last night after Albus left. He couldn't stop the smile from appearing on his face, especially thinking about the shower they took together this morning before she left.
Hermione had given him a wonderful wake up call to start with. He woke up with her mouth around him, and once she knew he was awake, she wasted no time in giving him a morning ride. Just when he thought she was finished, she talked him into showering together. She really was something else. And he couldn't wait until he got some time alone with her again.
He was brought out of his thoughts by Albus and Draco appearing in the hotel room. Draco was dressed like a man on a business trip. He shook his head. The one thing he had always hoped to pass on to his godson was that jeans were the best in leisure clothes. Oh well, he was his father's son.
"Good morning, all. Hermione on, yet?" Albus asked.
"Good morning, Albus. No, not yet. She will be in about 5 minutes, though." Bill answered. "Will you be staying to watch?"
"Indeed, I think I will. Don't get the chance to watch television much. Have a seat, Draco." Albus said.
"Draco, would you like something to eat or drink?" Ginny asked. She knew the blonde was nervous, even though they had called a truce.
"Um…yeah, I guess." Draco answered.
"Alright. What would you like? We have water, tea, milk and I think Hermione has some of that soda stuff around here." Ginny said.
"We also have orange juice, Draco, if you would like that." Luna said.
"That sounds good. Thank you."
"Well, why don't you sit here by me, Draco? Plenty of room." Ginny asked, getting a look from Luna. The girl knew Ginny had a crush on Draco.
"How are your parents, Malfoy?" Harry asked. He noticed Malfoy looked like he had wandered into a wolves den. He was trying to be civil to Malfoy, new beginnings and all that.
"They're fine. Still shaken up, but good. They're going to be going to the other safe house for a while." Draco said. He was trying to relax, but was still nervous.
"Well, they'll be in good company, then. They'll be with the other Weasley's, and some other Order members. Oh, look. Hermione's almost on." Albus said. Charlie turned up the volume.
"Honey Wilde talks about her tour, her album, what fans can expect at the show tonight, and performs a song from her album. After the break."
"Wow. Is she good? I haven't heard much of her singing, but Mother loves her." Draco said, getting some weird looks from the others. "Headmaster Dumbledore let us see a memory of her performing yesterday. Mother fell in love with her song about a lady named Georgia, but I was busy looking at the crowd." he added sheepishly.
"Yes, Malfoy. Mione's the best. I'm sure Severus thinks so." Harry said, shooting a glance at Severus.
"Yes, well. That's beside the point, Potter." Severus said.
"Alright. We're back. It is now 6:55 and sitting at around 65 degrees this morning. Taking time out of her current tour, singer Honey Wilde is here with us in studio this morning. Good morning, Honey."
"Good morning, Brad."
The camera cut to a shot of Hermione, who was wearing jeans and a simple white t-shirt with a jacket she had borrowed from Severus that morning.
"Although still fairly new to the game, you're making your name fairly well known. How does it change your life, knowing one day you're just a regular person, and the next, you're a household name?"
"Well, not to much, I guess. The only big difference I guess is the amount of security I have now, as opposed to last year. Also, the amount of people waiting my autograph has gone way up, from around 0 to a lot more than that."
"Hahaha. You're just starting your American leg of your tour. How is it so far?"
"Well, I've been enjoying myself immensely, Brad, as have my friends I brought with me. Most of the people with me haven't been outside of our corner of the world, so this is a big adventure for them."
"Glad to hear it. Your new album, titled 'UNTAMED' has been flying off the shelves. How did you come up with the title, and could you tell us about it?"
"It's called 'UNTAMED' because I tend to do things my own way, despite what people say, so I felt the name was appropriate. I picked all the songs, some of them against the better judgment of the producers and record company. I'm glad that people love it as much as I loved making it, because all the songs on there have some special meaning to me."
"Well, it certainly does mean a lot to your fans. Your current single, 'Love Me Tonight' is climbing steadily up the charts. And your album itself is currently sitting at number 7 on the charts. Any song mean more to you than the others?"
"Yes, definitely. There's actually 2 that mean quite a bit more to me. 'At Last' and 'Eyes'. I won't go into details, but those mean a lot more to me, lately."
"Alright, when we come back, Honey Wilde will perform a song for us, and talk more about her tour."
"She hasn't changed, then? Still doing things her way?" Draco asked.
"Yeah, pretty much. Any reason she mentioned 'At Last', Severus?" Sirius asked.
"You know why, Black." Severus said, raising an eyebrow. Looking at Draco, he said "She's taken, by the way."
So, his godfather had landed Granger. Well, Draco could see how they would fit together. They were essentially the same person, in regards to talent and power, not to mention they both had a weird fascination with books.
"And we're back, with Honey Wilde."
The crowd went nuts. "From her album, 'UNTAMED', singing her song 'Honey', Honey Wilde."
The group watched as she danced and sang, the camera cutting to fans on occasion. Draco was in awe. She was really good. Both her voice and the way she danced were perfect. His godfather was lucky. He was looking forward to the concert tonight.
After 2 more songs, and a few more questions, the show was over with the parting words from the host, "Alright, everyone. Don't forget to buy your tickets to Honey's show when she comes to your town. Honey Wilde, once again, ladies and gentlemen."
After the show ended, the group decided to go back to bed for a while, since Hermione wouldn't be back real soon. They were going to be having a lazy day, not wanting to waste too much energy so they could be awake for the show later. That, and today was their last day in New York, so they decided to use the laptop Hermione gave them to research their next destination, Charlotte, North Carolina.
For Severus, that couldn't come fast enough. He was looking forward to spending some time alone with Hermione on the plane. For Draco, the time couldn't come fast enough to see Hermione's show. He was looking forward to tonight, and found himself intrigued. He couldn't wait to see Granger in action.
PLEASE REVIEW. LET ME KNOW WHAT YOU THOUGHT. I PROMISE I'M WORKING ON THE NEXT CHAPTER ALREADY. XOXO
