Being Bound to your Presence Chapter 11

Dreams Continue...

-MIDNIGHT-

The hooded teen emerged once again, and once again the dark man expected the late night visitor.

"I saw them kiss today, just after the warning..." The teen reported, trembling. The man sat forward, glaring at the teen making her wince. "And?" The man hissed fiercely.

"That's all I really know..." The girl replied, voice shaking terribly. Suddenly the man leaned out of the shadows...

The teenager let out a terrified shreik. The man convered her mouth and whispered in a deadly voice- "Next time you bring me more information!" The teen took her usualy jingling pouch and departed in shocked silence. Once around the corner she broke into a run.

The next couple of days went by normal. But by "normal" I really mean "without any akward moments and mysterious death eaters delivering strange unknown messages." But Draco continuted to have the same dream. One night, Hermione got up to use the bathroom. On her way she heard Draco mutter in his sleep. She walked to his bedside (again...) and wonderend if he was dreaming. Suddenly he sat straight up into Hermione's arms.

Hermione's P.O.V

I sat at Malfoy's bedside thinking about when I kissed him. It felt so right... but then again so wrong. I cant believe I'm saying... uh, thinking this, but I think my feelings have changed for him...

What? only a little bit! I mean, he is rather good-looking... NO he's a FERRET! But a cute ferret! grr grumblegrumble

Suddenly Dr...rracula... um, Big Mouth! (It's a new uh, NICKNAME I made for him! sweat drop) sat sat straight up into my arms. I wonder what he was dreaming about! He (most likely incoheriently) put his arms around me, startled, I didn't know what to do, so I jsut sorta, held him. I know that sounds corny, but hey, I'm not good like the narrator! After a moment he just layed back down down and almost instantly fell back to sleep. Inspite of myself, I kissed his pale cheek ebfore returning to bed, and I swear I saw him grin.

Normal P.O.V

It was Friday night (thankfully,) so there would be no lessons until Monday (thankfully). That afternoon, Hermione had conjured some food and snacks up from the kitchen (Harry and Ron finally talked her into giving up on S.P.E.W) in mini-celebration of surviving the week's lessons. As she snacked in a good mood, Draco stared out the window. Hermione frowned.

"Malfoy, is something bothering you?" She asked him tenderly. He sighed.

"I might as well tell you. I've been having this dream..." Draco explained Hermione the dream. As the story went on, Draco watched as Hermione's dark brown eyes bore into his caringly. When he was done she took his place staring out the window, deep in thought.

"Wow," She said. "No wonder you woke up with a start right into me..." She gasped and covered her mouth, but she giggled at the look on his face.

"I WHAT?"

"Er... uh, its not like you were uh, hugging me or er, anything, you know, un... pureblood...ish." Hermoins studdered. Draco laughed.

"Has anyone ever told you that you are really bad at lying? Or did they just use their better-than-yours lying skills and tell you otherwise?" He grinned. Hermione sighed.

"I know. I never could lie very well..." She said. "Kinda goes along with being a goody-goody if you know what I mean.

"Malfoys are born with good-lying abilities." Draco said proudly. "I guess our weakness is always when we're asleep..." He gave her the hint.

"You know I felt all sorry for you and like... cuddled... umm, with you?" Hermione spilled out anxiously, embarrassed. Draco acted suprised. "No! Ohmigosh you did! UGH I feel COMPLETELY VIOLATED!" He did a dramatic pretend-faint.

Hermione shook her head. "Why am I still alive?"

"I don't know, I guess its just... well... hard to reject confort." Draco replied seriously.

"That... that is the most un-Malfoyish thing I think you've ever said!" Hermione said in mock-facination. "I think you're loosing your touch!"

Draco gasped sarcasticly. "Let's hope not! I'm very young and I'm gonna need that Malfoy touch!"

Hermione rolled her eyes. "you're gonna need any help you can get!" she said under her breath. "Now let's eat this food before it goes to waste," She said to Malfoy, "And to put some meat on your bones!" She added.

"No, no, this is rock solid muscle!" Draco flexed and motioned towards his arm, Hermione laughed. How immature. How stupid. how incredibly adorable.
