I was behind the curtains waiting for my Drakie to come. I had sneaked in wearing an invisibility cloak my father bought for me - how else do you suppose I get the gossip? - while Drakie and the mudblood walked in. Anyway I was hoping for a midnight snogging session after the mudblood went to sleep but what do I see? My Drakie kissing her! Then he proposed to her! After that she hugged him. How dare she! He's meant to be mine! And the worst was yet to come. They had a snogging session! I tried to do a spell on her but I couldn't get my wand and all I succeeded at was arousing suspicion. I guess if he won't be mine then he'll have to pay the consequences. The secret's out peoples. And I'll make sure the whole school knows it. Especially Potter and Weasel. Omegod! I broke a nail! Oh, I'm gonna kill who ever did this! Potter and Weasel will have to wait.
The next eveningRon's PoV
When Harry and I walked out of the common room guess who we found waiting for us? Pansy pug-faced Parkinson.
"Hello boys," she said, putting on a rather ugly smile.
"What do you want Pansy?" I demanded.
She was about the only girl I wouldn't mine giving a knuckle sandwich to. She was so arrogant and always giggled in such a stupid way. I mean, she's probably the female equivalent of Malfoy! They are a perfect pair. Just like me and 'Mione will be if I can just get the guts to tell her.
"Daydreaming about the mudblood again Weasel?" she sneered.
I was about to lunge at her but Harry held me back. How dare she call Hermione a mudblood! God she had such an annoying voice.
"Don't you dare call her a mudblood, you, you , you slimy Slytherin snake!" I yelled.
I know the insult was pretty lame but it had served its purpose. Pansy looked like she was about to cry. Then somehow she seemed to pull herself together and smirked.
"Protective of your darling Granger are you Weasel, but you won't be once you hear this juicy bit of news,"
Harry glared. "We don't want to hear it Pansy," he finally said.
But the truth was I did want to hear it.
"Well, I'll tell you anyway. I saw your darling mudblood snog with Draco Malfoy!" and with that she left.
It couldn't be true. I mean it just couldn't be. But the more I thought about it the more it made sense. They do share a dorm and she seemed to be looking at him a lot lately and differently too. He didn't insult us as much. And he hasn't insulted her all day! Plus Pansy liked Draco so she wouldn't make up lies about him unless he did something real bad to her, like, like, like snog with her arch-enemy!
Harry's PoV
Ever since Pansy told him that stupid lie, Ron seems to be acting a real weird around Hermione. I could see he was really depressed so I decided to prove to him that it was only a stupid lie. We decided to sneak into the Heads common room that night.
That night
So here we were next to Draco and Hermione - wearing an invisibility cloak of course. I made a mental note that the password was liebe - gotta check what it means, probably German cause that's Hermione's second language - and we followed them in without them noticing. Outside the common room there acted like they were about to avada each other any second but as soon as they got inside the atmosphere seemed to change.
They looked at each other with kindness. Draco gave Hermione a goodnight kiss and then walked up the stairs. But Hermione yelled after him saying they needed to talk about what he said last night. He invited her up to his room saying that to explain properly he needed to show her something. She went into his room and we followed.
Man, I can't believe this was happening and I knew it was harder for Ron than it was for me. I could feel him tense up and I could see that he was trying real hard not to go and punch Malfoy. And it was all my fault. I had dragged him into this hoping to prove to him - and myself - that Pansy's accusations were false. But it ended up confirming them.
I just hope he wasn't planning to do anything to Hermione.
When we got to his room I found that it was fit for a king! Everything was huge, from the green and silver rug in the middle of the floor to the four poster bed in the middle of the room.
I could see Hermione lying with her head on Draco's lap on the couch talking. He was playing with her hair. We moved closer and could finally hear the conversation. Heck, it confused the hell out of me.
"You know what you said yesterday Draco, what do you mean? I mean, how did you know?"
"Well, I really don't want to tell you this. It could put you in danger. No I better not."
Since when did he care what happened to her? But then again he kissed her!
"Draco, tell me. Don't worry it's okay. I can take care of myself."
"But, c'mon 'Mione. He doesn't like people knowing what he's up to."
'Mione?
"Draco Johnathan Malfoy! I demand you tell me at once. Remember what you said last night? I think it's better I know,"
Johnathan?
For some reason he looked ashamed. He seemed like he was having and argument with himself whether to tell her or not. Then he shook his head and said, "Hermione, I love you. I don't want anything to happen to you. But since you want to know then I guess I owe you the truth. He's back. He really is. My father decided to turn me into a Death-Eater so I went with him to the hide-out. I didn't want to Hermione, I didn't…"
Were those tears I could see on his face? I never knew Malfoy cried. I mean, of course everyone cried but Malfoy? I was still trying to digest the thoughts from the past fifteen minutes. Malfoy kissing Hermione. Hermione lying on the couch with Malfoy. Malfoy admitting he loved Hermione. Him about to get turned into a death-eater. Malfoy crying. And why the heck were they in his room? Then Hermione did something very strange. Something that would hurt Ron more than a bucket of knives.
She pulled Malfoy's head closer to hers and kissed him.
Then before I knew it, Ron ran out of the invisibility cloak, punched Malfoy in the face and ran out of the room.
