"Well…" I started. "If you really want to." I replied.

Hermione

"Finally you agreed on something reasonable." Draco laughed as he kissed me. "We'll get started straight away, when we get the materials. Then kick Weasley's ass," He laughed excitedly.

"Nothing to have him hurt permanently," I added.

"We won't do anything that physical."

"Or emotional," I replied.

"We'll try not too…" Draco reassured me as he when to the couch.

"Great I don't want any permanent damage," I told Draco as he stretched out on the couch. "Emotional or physical," I knew that Draco knew what it meant to be hurt emotionally and physical… Years with his Father and done that to him, I shuttered.

"Isn't Weasely not your friend anymore?" Draco asked. "Why would you care?"

"I still wouldn't want him to get hurt," I muttered. "They would always be my friends to me…" I trailed of sadly. I glazed around the Slytherin common room. It was so different from Gryffindor… Gryffindor was so warm and welcoming and Slytherin was cold and shallow…I didn't belong here. NO! Slytherin was just fine…It was nice. Draco was here, so was Pansy. But it was just so different. There was on windows thus no light and so green and…stony? Draco and I weren't public…We ate together sometimes in the morning but barely anyone was there. Harry, Ginny and Ron where there however. What if Draco and I weren't meant to be? What if this was all an act. NO! I can't think about that! Draco loves me…But what if he doesn't. Maybe I'm just his new toy? What if…No! Too much what if's… I needed to get hold of some truth serum….I can't use Veritaserum. I would sneak into Snape's office…I had snuck in there before but that was for Harry and Ron-

"Mya are you ok?" Draco asked kindly. How could he be faking? But he was known for his acting skills…

'Yeah...I'm fine." I reassured him…What if I just use Occlumency…I read about it and tried to help Harry learn it. I'm sure I'll be fine.

"Are you going to him today?" I asked.

"NO! We need a master plan…" He laughed. Here's my chance! I thought as I tried Occlumency on him…I'm doing it! I thought as I listened into Draco thoughts Maybe something from the Weasely's store… I heard him think. YES! I did it! I thought just as I stopped hearing him… I got of focus! "Are you all right?" He asked again.

'Yes Draco, I need to go to the library now…" I acknowledged.

"Ok, Bye Mya!"Draco called. Sometime today I would mention the war… I thought. I heard him stand up as I left for the door. I walked over as someone grabbed my hand; I turned around to see Darco there. "I love you." He whispered as I squeezed him hand back.

"I love you to Draco." I told him as I left the common room. Barley anyone knew about us, Other than Pansy, and my friends only the Slytherin's knew. The other 3 houses didn't know… He loved me…and I was questioning that. I knew he did, I didn't need proof I knew Draco loved me. I felt horrible. I was questioning us… But what if Ginny is right, what if Draco just gets bored of me. What if I sacrifice Harry, Ginny and Ron and then…He dumps me. I won't have anyone then. The Gryffindor's would turn ageist me and I have no way of staying in Slytherin without Draco…I needed my friends back, it doesn't matter if they don't like Draco, I needed them back. I thought as I made my way to the Gryffindor common room.

…

What was I doing here? Do I expect just to be warmly greeted? The other Gryffindor's have no idea what's going on…But Harry, Ginny and Ron? I needed to apologize…I needed my friends back. I needed them back. I walked over to the portrait as the fat lady appeared.

"My, you weren't here in quite a while?" The fat lady asked.

"Well, yes…I'm sorry."

"No need to apologize my dear," The fat lady laughed. "Password?"

"I don't really k-know…" I muttered.

"Well, I seen you walk in for years and it's probably the first time you forgot…"

"Could you let me in?"

"The password's is Phoenix," She whispered.

"Thanks, Phoenix," I said as the door swung open as I saw Harry in his usual spot with Ron. Like always, there were playing wizard chess. I slowly walked over to them thinking what to say… They didn't see me, yet. I was being the bigger person and apologizing to them, even if they had too.

"Guys," I started as they looked up at me.

"Well well…look who came crawling back," Ron spat. "Did the twerp dump you already?"

"I'm not crawling back Ronald," I replied as he looked un- amused. "And no he didn't dump me."

"Then what are you doing her Hermione?" Harry asked not even turning his head to look at me.

"I wanted my best friend's back-"

"Who said we want to back?" Ron spat back.

"And I came to apologize," I added. "I should have told you two earlier…" I said as they sat quietly. "Where's Ginny?"

"In the girl's dorm…" Harry said slowly.

"Don't even think of going there! Get out!" Ron muttered.

"Don't listen to him Hermione…Ginny wasn't really the same since you, well left." Harry admitted.

"Thanks Harry." I told him as I headed to the Girls dorm. What did he mean by Ginny being different? I went up the stairs as I saw Ginny sitting on her bed looking at pictures. I slowly walked up to her as I saw the picture was of Ginny and I. She was slowly outlining my picture as she stared at it. Did she really miss me…Ginny and I weren't really that close but she was the only girlfriend I had.

"I should have been a better friend." I heard her mutter softly. "Now, you're better off with Malfoy and Parkinson."

"That's not true Ginny," I said sadly as I didn't notice the tears in my eyes.

"Hermione?" She asked.

"Who else?" I asked as I sat down on her bed. We both sat there quietly as I didn't know what to say."I'm sorry Ginny." I apologized.

"I sorry too…I can tell Malfoy loves you..." Ginny said as she stayed back turned away from me. "Are you still dating him?"

"Yes…" I replied. Thankfully she wasn't that mad at me like Ron. "I'm afraid Ginny…" I admitted.

"From what?" Ginny began turning around back to me. "Are you afraid of…Him?" She asked softly.

"N-No…" I cried. "I'm a-afraid that he'll dump me, a-a-and-d you g-guys would still hate me. Then I'll have nowhere to go… Without you three as friends….I have no one." I cried. This was unexpected. I was feeling this and It felt good to get it all out.

"I don't hate you Hermione." Ginny reassured me. "I was acting crazy for the last couple of weeks. I was afraid of losing you as a friend…and then I just needed you back. I didn't want to believe that you where gone."

"Really?"

"Yes, you where my first real friend that wasn't a guy. After years of being the only girl in the house…"

"Thanks Ginny." I said sincerely. "I missed you too. Friends?"

"Friends." Ginny agreed. "Harry and Ron feel the same way except they don't want to admit it."

"That's great." I laughed as I glanced at Ginny who was now smiling.

A/N: So sorry for the long wait! I got addicted to Facebook games and well... Anways, I wrote a next chapter and it's coming soon! I'm just waiting for my beta reader to edit it. Please R&R!

By the way i'm working (worked) on some other short one shots. Both are Dramiones. One about Draco turning animagus (So similar yet different). Also a Parody, about snape reading Hermione's and Draco's notes (called 'Say what?'). They are both on my profile. If you want you can check them out. Thanks. =*)
