Draco flew out of Snape's office, leaving a bewildered Hermione behind him. The slam of the door made everyone else stop what they were doing. At the sight of Hermione still holding her wand, the three youngsters looked astonished. But Snape had a dark look, and sighed in ...in what anyway? Sadness, relief, sorrow...?
'I think we'll stop the lesson here.Next time on Wednesday. Don't be late, and don't forget to empty your mind each night before you go to sleep. I think I don't have to remember you how important it is, right? Well, good night children.'
Clearly dismissed, the teenagers left the room, and on their way Gryffindor Tower, Hermione explained them what was in her mind when Draco ran away.
'It's weird. I cast the spell first, and what I saw... well, it was his mind was... I don't know exactly what he was thinking, but I saw how mean he has been to me, and after how he is regretting it, he regret to have let his father inposed his point of view, and he is different now. I was just about to see, something awful that his father did when he threw me out of his mind, and he entered mine. He saw most of the things that hurt me bad ( at this Ron encircled her shoulders with his arms), and then he...he saw my dream. And... he... ran away. I don't understand.'
'Maybe... well, if he really has changed, maybe he regrets what he did. Maybe he's not as heartless as he seems to be. And maybe...'
'... your pain made him realize how wrong he is! Maybe he didn't feel up to face you!
And now...'
'...he is trying to find a way to apologize!'
Harry and Ginny were thinking so hard that they didn't even realize that they were finishing each other's sentences. However, when they cried out the last together, they looked at each other grinning.
'You know, I feel like we were sharing our mind, it's odd!'
'I know, Harry, I feel like that too. I think I'm gonna like this lessons, and...oups, sorry Mione!'
'Don't worry, I... I'll probably like them too in the future. I'm sure there's a perfectely reasonable explaination to what happened. You know, I was starting to think that we culd be friends with Draco. Our work in Potions is really interesting. Besides, he seemed grateful when you warn him against his father! I...I don't know...'
She leaned against Ron, and he run his hand in her hair, whispering.
'Don't worry about him, if he is lmike you think he is, he'll explain what happened, and it'll be ok! Ok?'
'Ok! Ron...hug me please!'
Harry and Ginny left the young lovers, and went to the Common Room to talk about their thought. They had just entered the Room when Ginny suddenly realized.
'Did Mione called Malfoy "Draco" ?'
A/N: Yeah, yeah, short agaon, I know! I'm sorry but I'm working during the holidays, at 6.30 in the morning, so I can't stay late on the computer, and my sisters monopolise it during the day. Besides, it's Christmas... Well, I'll try to update before 2006...
Thanks to my reviewers, I'm so glad to have so many of you who joined in this chapter.And I don't forget Luna Moonlight Fawn , who is here for each new chapter. I hope you all will like this chapter, even if it is so short (Sorry!)
I wasn't able to put one of the winners' name here, but don't worry, in the next chapter, there'll be one.
Diyallah asked me how to pronounced Aurelia, so I'll put it here to everyone: it's o-ré-lia.
And to answer KtotheT, I put the story under romance because it's mostly about love. Ok, mostly brother-sister love, but also other kinds of love, and it's important to me to emphasize it. Besides, there'll be other couples than Ron and Hermione in the story...
Please, keep on reviewing, I'll update faster.
By the way, MERRY CHRISTMAS everyone!
