All I Ask of You

By: Slytherin Witch

*A Few Days Later *

Draco sat by the fire in his room reading a book when a soft knock came to his door.

"Come in," he called.

"Draco?"

It was Pansy. Draco turned to face her. Her face had a sad impression on it. Draco suddenly felt guilty for being rude to her on the first night.

"Come sit," Draco patted the spot next to him.

Pansy rushed over and sat by him.

"Draco, I'm so sorry for being rude to you! I should have noticed you didn't want to talk! Please forgive me!"

"It's alright Pansy. I forgive you."

"So we're okay?"

"Yes we're okay."

Pansy smiled and leaned in and kissed Draco on the lips. Draco wrapped his arms around her and kissed back. There kissing got more and more passionate.

Draco and Pansy had always been together like this. There family's were best of friends and expected them to marry one day. It was hard for Draco though. When he saw Pansy he saw a sister, nothing more. Sure she was a great kisser and great at like everything else but something was missing from their relationship. And Draco new he could never have all the wonders in a relationship with Pansy.

Draco pushed her away.

"Pansy we have to talk."

Pansy's eyes flickered with hurt to confusion.

"About what Draco?"

"About us?"

"Us?"

"Pansy, you are like a sister to me. I'm not sure if I could actually keep doing this with you."

"Am I not good enough for you?" Tears threatened to come.

"No, that's not it. I love you, Pansy. But not in this way. Not in this way. And I know you feel the same way."

"Yes, I do." Pansy sighed.

"You should follow the one you love."

"But no one wants me"

"Not true."

Pansy looked away. She had always thought that no one could like her, that's why she stuck to Draco.

"What about Blaise," Draco said.

Pansy's eyes lit up.

"Blaise?"

"I know you like him. And I know for a fact he likes you. I see it in his eyes every time we are together."

"H-He li-likes me?"

"Yes."

Pansy looked like she could jump for joy.

"But Draco? What about you?"

"Me? Don't worry about me. I'll find my love one day."

Pansy smiled. "Thank you Draco. For everything."

Draco gave her one of his rare smiles. "No problem."

With that Pansy hopped up from the couch and ran to the door. With one more smile to Draco she ran out the door.

Draco sat there for a moment before getting up himself and leaving his room. As he walked into the Slytherin common room he saw Pansy talking to Blaise. She caught his eye and gave him a weak smile. Draco walked on leaving through the stone wall.

He ended up walking to the library. He figured he could search for a book to read since he was there. As he walked in the door however he ran into someone.

"Sorry," came a soft mumble.

"Don't worry--" Draco cut himself off as he realized who ran into him, "Granger?"

"Oh, Malfoy it's you."

She quickly picked up the books she had dropped when she ran into him and made to leave.

"Wait!" Draco said catching her arm.

Hermione looked confused, "What?"

Draco was at lost of words. Why did he just stop her, and did he just grab her arm?

He quickly let her go.

"Why we're you so nice?" he asked.

"What?"

"On the train and in the carriage."

"Oh, you looked upset. I don't like people being upset."

Draco finally got on good look at her and noticed that her face was tear stained.

"Were you crying?"

Hermione was taken aback.

"No…"

"Yes you we're. What's wrong? What happened?"

Hermione just looked at her feet. A small tear slid down her cheek.

"Nothing…"

Draco didn't know if he should pursue the subject more.

"I-I got to get to class, bye."

With that she rushed out the door and down the hallway, leaving Draco with himself.

'Wait,' he thought to himself, 'was I just nice to a mudblood? What is going on with me.'

Draco slumped to the ground near the door with his head in-between his legs. What was going on with him?
