Chapter 10
Harry and Ginny spotted Hermione crying before hurrying over to her and sat down next to her "What did he do now?" Ginny said looking upset "I can kill him for you if you want." She grinned and rubbed Hermione's back. Harry looked at his friend worried and sighed "I agree with Gin on this, I can hurt him if you want me to!" He looked at her watching her lift her head up slowly and glare at him.
"You will do no such thing Harry Potter, unless you want to make me feel worse!" she looked down at the table and wiped her eyes before standing up "I think it is time for presents now" she said to change the subject and went to find Blaise and Daphne. She spotted them at a table by themselves talking and laughing with each other, after taking a deep breathe she walked to the table and put on a fake smile "I think we should do present's now. Yeah?"
Blaise gave her a confused look before shaking his head "Yes sister of mine, we can as long as we can also have a private talk later." He warned her before getting up and walking with her and Daphne to the present table. "It's time for the presents" He grinned at the guests and sat down in a chair next to Hermione. "Here you open the first one Mia" He grinned and shoved her a gift before grabbing one of his own.
Hermione opened her present and saw who it was from before smiling a little "Thanks Gin!" she looked at the book titled "When a good witch turns evil" in her hands and couldn't help but grin before putting it on the table and grabbing the next present.
Blaise was next and opened a gift from Pansy before rolling his eyes and putting it on the table "You shouldn't have Pans." He laughed looking at the box of trinkets.
After going through all of the presents there was 2 left one for each of them, Blaise grabbed the first one and grinned "Daph I told you not to get me anything!" He saw her blush a little and opened his present before smiling and showing everyone the very exquisite watch she had given him. He chuckled and grinned "Come here you witch, how did you know I needed a new watch." He grabbed her hand and pulled her into a kiss before hearing everyone saying "Aww" and "They are so cute" He grinned on her lips and whispered in her ear something that made her turn blood red before letting her go and turning to Hermione. "Okay little sis, it's your turn!"
Hermione stuck her tongue out at him and laughed "Older by 1 minute Blaise, so your the little brother!" She looking at the gift in her hands and her smile faded "No I don't think I want to open this one, I think we are done here." She said trying to avoid opening the gift from Draco.
Blaise raised an eyebrow at her and grabbed the gift before she could stop him "Oh but this one is probably the best one here! Draco has an expensive taste I mean look at my gift from him." He pointed to the broom sitting on the table "It's the newest one out and everything, I must thank him for it after this." He gave her the gift back and looked at her sternly "Stop trying to be a drama queen about this and just open the present." He smirked when he saw her cheeks start to turn red and looking flushed.
Hermione grabbed the present harshly and glared at him before turning back to her friends "Sorry about that guys, must be tired is all…" she smiled at them weakly before opening the gift slowly and gasping at what she saw. Inside a velvet box was a necklace made out of pure gold with a pendent hanging on it. It was of a heart within a heart and had pink and white diamonds on it. There was a matching set of earrings and a small note on the inside of the package that she skimmed over quickly before shoving it in her pocket. It read:
Mia,
I know you probably will say I spent too much on you but you are worth every penny. I love you and this is a symbol of my love, you will always have my heart even if it is smaller than yours at times. This charm shows that you will always have my heart even if you take it and never give your own, mine will always be there with yours.
Yours,
Draco
Hermione felt tears forming in her eyes before wiping them away and acting like it didn't faze her at all. "It's only a necklace Blay, nowhere near as special as a broom. She rolled her eyes and put the present on the table before grabbing a drink and taking a big sip. She noticed the present she had bought for Blaise was sitting on the floor, "How did this get down here?"
Daphne grinned at her, "I wrapped it for you and brought it down here!"
"Thank you Daph, I should make him wait until our real birthday though!" Hermione grinned and handed him the package "Here is your present Blay, I hope you like it."
Blaise laughed and took the package, trying to figure out what it was. "You didn't have to get my anything Mia! Having you back in my life was good enough." He heard them "Aww" at him and he grinned. "But you are a pain in my arse so I guess your present will make up for it."
Hermione glared at him playfully "Oh Shut it, just open your present!"
Blaise opened the present slowly and a grin spread over his face. "You got me a signed broom! Where did you get this!?" He looked at the broom and saw it that his favorite quidditch players had signed it. He rubbed his fingers over the broom and couldn't stop smiling. "This is amazing Mia, you even got a better gift then Draco did!"
"Oh stop, you still have something else in there." Hermione grinned feeling proud of her gift to him.
"Oh I have more stuff, hold this for me please Daph." Blaise handed his broom to Daphne and grinned before opening the other present from Hermione. He pulled the shirt out and started laughing, "You really had to get it didn't you?" He held the shirt up that read "I'm the Evil twin".
Harry and Ginny started to laugh loudly "See now we have proof you're the Evil one." They grinned and walked up to Hermione and high-fived her.
Blaise smiled at his sister and gave her a hug, "Thank you Mia, you are the best sister in the world." He stood up and walked over to the cake, motioning for Hermione to follow.
They stood in front of the cake and saw the candles light automatically before grinning, they hadn't celebrated a birthday together since they were 8 years old. The tune of Happy Birthday was being sung and they blew out the candles together.
"It's cake time! Who wants some cake?" Hermione grinned forgetting about her fight with Draco and enjoying the rest of the party.
A few hours later the party ended and everyone headed to their respective houses after saying happy birthday to them again and telling them how much of a good time they had. Blaise on the other hand looked at his sister and sighed before giving her a hug "You need to stop worrying so much Mia, I don't like to see you sad and if I need to tell him to leave you alone I will. No one is going to make my sister feel sad, you understand me. Or maybe I can have a talk with him before I leave here." He looked angry.
"No Blaise, go back to your room…I think I hurt him more then he hurt me tonight. I love you for standing up for me but I am a big girl and if I need you then I will let you know!" She smiled at him reassuringly and kissed his cheek telling him goodnight.
"Hermione, I don't care if he is my best mate, I can still kick his arse if he messes with my sister!" He looked annoyed and walked out of the door. As soon as he left Hermione walked over to the couch and laid down before falling asleep with a frown on her face.
The next morning Hermione woke up with a headache and a sore neck "why did I fall asleep here!" she groaned before stretching and standing up to walk to the bathroom. Just as she was going to open the door, Draco walked out of the bathroom with a towel wrapped around his waist and his hair wet from the shower. She looked him up and down, watching as the water slowly rolled down his chest and his abs before going behind the towel and blushed when she looked him in the face. "Sorry" she said quickly before running into the bathroom breathing hard. "What the hell is wrong with me? I know what feeling I have for him…why can't I just admit it to myself for real." She sat on the toilet and cried before getting herself cleaned up and brushing her teeth.
Draco was furious as he went in his room and decided he didn't feel like eating anymore this morning so he got dressed and grabbed his broom before hurrying out of the common room and heading outside to fly around.
Hermione walked out of her common room and headed down to the great hall hoping to see Draco again, she missed him already and felt bad about last night. As she walked down the hall, she heard two people yelling at each other. She slowly walked closer before hiding on the other side of the wall and listened.
Blaise was red in the face from yelling at growled "If you even cared for her, you would act like it more! I swear to you Drake that I will hurt you if you as much as hurt her you understand me." He pushed him against the wall and held his wand in his hand "So you better tell the truth or else."
Draco pushed him away and smirked "If your precious sister cared so much about me like you said, then why am I constantly getting hurt here! I have waited all these years in hopes of finding the only girl I ever cared about and she didn't even remember who I was! How do you think that made me feel huh? Do you even know? No you have the perfect relationship, I hear about it all the time and it makes me sick. I could get any girl in the school I want except the one I want to want me back! I am done with this mate; you don't have to worry about me in her life anymore. You got your wish." Draco was beyond angry at this point and clenched his jaw "Just keep an eye on her for me…I will always love her." He turned around and walked away as Blaise was telling his to stop.
Blaise sighed "No Draco, I didn't want you to leave her…" he said to the air as Draco walked away and gritted his teeth before punching the wall and storming outside, not knowing that Hermione had just heard the worst part of the conversation. Once he calmed down, he walked back inside and to the great hall. "Daph, I think I just made something worse than it already was." He told her as he sat at the table next to her. He saw her roll her eyes and frowned "Really, I confronted Draco about the whole Hermione thing and he told me he was breaking up with her…she is going to kill me!" He frowned as he filled his plate up and started to eat.
Daphne shook her head and sighed "I'm sorry babe; you just need to stop being so over protective. I am sure she could have calmed him down herself, you know how much he loved her." She finished eating her food and waited until he was done to stand up and leave the great hall with him. As they were walking down the hall they heard a sniffle and stopped. "Did you hear that Blaise?" she asked as she listened again and turned the corner to find Hermione sitting on the floor against the wall crying. She looked at Blaise and shrugged "I guess he already came to her." She said as she sat down next to her and put an arm around her shoulder. "Hey what's wrong hun?" she asked her quietly "Guy problems I take it."
"Yeah I guess, I don't want to talk about it right now. Sorry Daph but I need alone time." She got up and ran down the hall until she ran into someone "Sorry" she murmured.
"Two times in one day, I am starting to think you are doing it on purpose Zabini." Draco looked down at her and frowned before continuing "I can't see you anymore, bye" He walked past her and into a classroom before wiping the tears that threatened to fall "Get a grip Malfoy, she doesn't want you! It's not like it's the end of the world." He tried to tell himself before regaining his composure and leaving the classroom to go to the dungeons.
Hermione just stood in her spot and didn't know what to do; she never thought that she would be hurting this much over losing Draco. She was feeling sick to her stomach and felt hot tears running down her face before going back to her common room hoping that maybe this was all a dream. She soon realized it wasn't when he didn't come back to his room that night, nor did she see him the next two days. She was out of tears and knew the one person she had to confront about this problem, Blaise. She walked down to the dungeons and said the password before entering the common room and looking around. "Hey has anyone seen Blaise?" she hissed and saw him slowly stepping out of the shadows "Come with me NOW!" she looked at him with anger in her eyes before leaving the common room.
Blaise swallowed hard before looking over at Daphne "Do I really have to?" he saw her shake her head and groaned "But Babe, she is going to hurt me!" He had to admit his sister could get very scary indeed if she was angry enough.
Daphne smirked at him "Well you are the one that started this mess, trying to be mister protective. You got yourself into this mess, you can get yourself out. And don't worry I will be here to make you feel better after she is done beating you for being an over protective brother" She laughed at the look of fear on his face and kissed him "I love you and have fun!" she patted his butt as he left the common room nervous.
Blaise saw Hermione standing against the wall and sighed "Look Mia, I'm really sorry okay!" He started before watching her walk over to him looking evil.
"No Blaise Zabini you are not, If you cared about me then you would have let ME handle it, not YOU!" she poked his chest "I miss him so much that it hurts and I have no fucking clue where he has even been the last 3 days!"
"Well he has been in the slytherin common room with…"He was cut off as Hermione stepped closer shooting daggers at him "With whom?" she asked him with a look that could match Draco's pissed off face any day 'Maybe they really do belong together' he thought before feeling a wand poke him in the chest. "You better calm down Mia; I don't want to see you do something you will regret." He said slowly and got nervous when he saw the smirk on her face.
Hermione smirked evilly and laughed "It's Hermione and if you don't tell me who he is messing with, then I will just have to hex you now won't I. After what you did, I don't know if I even want you as a brother." She saw a look of fear cross his eyes before anger filled him.
"Fine Hermione, it was Pansy" He hissed at her "and yes I heard them in his old room and no I don't think you mean what you said about me. Maybe he is better off without you after all!" He smirked at her before going back to the common room and kicking a table. "Daphne, we need to talk…you said you would make me feel better." He followed her into her room defeated before lying on her bed.
Daphne smiled at him "That bad huh? Well what can we do to make you forget about it?" she grinned before leaning down to kiss him.
Hermione stormed into the common room before heading to Draco's room "You better open this door right now, so help me Merlin I will knock it down" she put her ear to the door and heard moans on the other side before kicking the door open and holding her wand out at them. She saw them laying on his bed half-naked with her hands on his erection. "So you leave me for this slut huh? I bet Ron doesn't know about this one." She threw something at him before running out of the room and into the hallway crying.
Draco groaned before pushing Pansy away "get away from me" He said with venom in his voice "I told you that I didn't want her to find out!" He stood up and got dressed before running out of the room after her. He put his hands in his pocket and looked down at the thing she had thrown at him. It was the memory he gave her and she had already looked at it. He instantly felt worse before running a hand through his hair and heading to his head boy room in hopes of finding her there.
Pansy looked down at the bed and frowned "I thought you cared again…" she slowly stood up and got dressed before heading to her room to cry.
Meanwhile in the hallway Hermione was leaning against pillar before heading to her common room and sitting on the couch crying. She felt someone sit next to her and moved away before looking up and seeing Draco "Get away from me" she warned him as her voice got shaky. She watched him look at her before getting frustrated "Didn't you hear me, don't you have Pansy waiting for you" she went to stand up and leave.
Draco grabbed her wrist tight and gritted his teeth "You will hear me out do you understand me!" He felt her flinch slightly at his tone, or was it his grip, he honestly didn't know. "Don't make me tie you down Mia"
She spit at him "Don't call me that now, it's not like you care anyway. I heard you tell my brother in the hallway that!" she struggled to get out of his grip but to no avail. "Let me go, Now!" she cried in pain as she felt a bruise forming.
Draco's grip softened as he realized he was causing her pain "I'm sorry Mimi, Will you at least hear me out?" He saw her nod softly before letting her go, he sighed "Let me take a shower first…and then we will talk." He walked over to the bathroom and turned on the shower.
After an hour long shower and tooth brushing Draco walked out of the bathroom with his towel wrapped around him, he looked over at the couch and saw Hermione had fell asleep. He looked at her wrists and frowned when he saw a perfect hand print bruise forming on them. He walked over to her and grabbed his wand before casting a spell to heal her wrists. He knew Blaise would be furious if he found out that happened. He slowly shook Hermione to wake her up. "Mia, wake up" He kissed her forehead "I'm sorry for hurting you…" he saw her open her eyes and smiled at her "I think it's time we had a truthful talk, no lies this time." He watched her face for her reaction and chuckled when he saw her eyeing him up "Sorry forgot I wasn't dressed yet." He went to stand up to get dressed when she pulled him back on the couch. "Let's just get this over with." She stated before looking him in the face and frowning.
