Got To Believe
Draco/Hermione
PG
A/N: Please, please, please answer the survey question at the bottom! PLEASE!! Anyways, thanks to all those who reviewed! BTW, this dinner scene is when Toni was dressed elegantly while Lorenz was gawking at her in the movie…much like this one, just to let you know.
***Previous Chapter***
Draco was watching intently at the entrance seeing if his date would enter and kiss his, oh never mind. His date was, Pansy Parkinson.
'I can't believe she'll ditch me like that!' And his eyes fell upon an elegant lady wearing a beige evening dress outlined with sequins and beads (A/N: Sorry, I'm not really into fashion. ^_~) and her hair was tied into a bun leaving some twirly hair dangling from it. He gaped at her, and realized who it was…HERMIONE GRANGER!!
"What are you doing here Draco?" He immediately saw Hermione staring at him.
***Start***
Draco didn't even reply because he was too busy gaping at her. Suddenly, he said something that he'll really regret.
"Why are you so goddamn beautiful?" Draco said without even thinking. It's like those reflex actions you know what I mean.
"What did you just say?" Hermione didn't catch what Draco said and had a confused look on her face.
"Uhm…I said why are you so…tadam…tuttiful! Yeah! Why are you so Tadam Tuttiful?" Draco said in a sort of weird way, Hermione got even more confused.
"Tadam Tuttiful?" Hermione said, quizzically.
"Yes! You know, I learned Thai when I graduated from school. You know…hehe…hehe" Draco cocked his right eyebrow still gawking at Hermione.
"Oh…Thai, so what does that mean in English?" Hermione, who always wants to know answers to her questions, stared attentively at Draco.
"Aaahh…that means why are you so…so…why are you here, yeah, why are you here!" Draco answered hesitantly while Hermione giggled. 'She giggles so cute' Draco sighed inwardly but remembered who was in front of him and regained his composure.
"Actually Draco I was the first one to ask you, but ok, you see I have this meeting with someone and they postponed it just after I arrived, then I saw you. What about you?" Hermione again giggled.
"Well, ok, Pansy didn't show up." Draco felt uneasy being in front of her.
"Oh, so we're both alone. Do you mind if I sit here?" Hermione said with her eyes glinting. No man can resist that so, Draco said 'yes' right away.
***
They both talked about what's been going on and thought about reasons why their 'date' or 'administrator' didn't arrive. They had so much fun together that they did not know that it was already past midnight.
***Draco's POV***
She looked like a goddess! I can't believe I said that, in front of her! Well, at least she didn't understand what I said. But still, she looked so stunning! I gaped at her, gawked, stared, gazed, looked, watched whatever you wanna call it, it's still the same. You can say I am again attracted to her. After Graduation, I thought I'm not going to see her again and that was a relief to me, she has always been bothering me. Well, not really me, but bothering my mind. I can't believe I'm falling for her again.
***
Draco woke up at around 5:00 in the morning, took a bath, wore his most expensive suit (Actually, all his suits are expensive.) and went to the dining room, all alone of course eating cereal. (A/N: Think of Ja Rule's Always On Time…but w/o the girls!! IT'S MURDAH!!) He kept on thinking about a girl…no, correction, a lady dressed in a beige evening dress…'What am I thinking? Am I really falling for her again?' Draco smiled seeing his memories flash by. It was like only yesterday when they were Head Boy and Head Girl and were always together letting Harry be furious. 'I just love those days!' he got his bowl and went to the sink. Even though he was in the muggle world, there were still house-elves who were still very loyal to him. And, his place was really difficult for muggles to find. Anyway, he stayed for another 15 minutes then when it was already 6:00 he stepped to his Ferrari and drove off. 'This really is true…I am in love with Hermione Granger.'
***
He went inside the busy hallways of the building and as he got out of the elevator he stumbled to Hermione and felt his cheeks turn red. (Again) He just smiled weakly and bowed his head to hide his blushing cheeks. Hermione thought that he was really cute hiding his face followed his gaze to the floor.
"So, what's so interesting about the floor?" Hermione stifled a laugh. Draco was still hiding his face and scarlet was creeping all over his face. When he was about to ask her to follow him she dissolved into a fit of giggles, the people walking by them were amused seeing that there was nothing really funny, Hermione said in-between her giggles.
"You *giggle* look l-like *giggle* a-a Gryffindor *giggle* with y-your *giggle* blonde hair and that face!!" She again continued to laugh until she saw that Draco was feeling very troubled, so she stopped and looked very concerned.
"What's wrong?" Draco didn't answer; instead he took her hand and pulled her outside his office. As he faced her, he looked straight at Hermione who had a very confused look on her face.
"Why are you so taddam tuttiful?" Hermione spoke up, giggling again. Draco got a little puzzled there and remembered what happened last night.
"Oh, you know that I was only joking, right? You did believe that I speak Thai?" Draco got astonished.
"No, silly. Of course it was only a joke. Like there is taddam tuttiful in a Thai dictionary!" And again, Hermione giggled. (A/N: There are so much giggles! I can't take it any longer! And I don't really know about 'taddam tuttiful' I just that made that up. ^_^)
'This is it, Draco. Tell her that you need her so badly! Tell her that…' The voices in his head were really getting a little bit irritating so he just shrugged it all off and looked seriously at her. Now, Hermione was already paying good attention to him and was looking also pretty absorbed in her own thoughts. He suddenly spoke up. "Hermione remember when we were in seventh year, and, uhm, well, anyways, uhm." He stopped and stared at her wide-eyed and continued. "Anyways, you know, when we graduated of course we left and, you see, you really became very special to me." Hermione just nodded with a smile planted on her face. "And, you see Hermione, I sorta li…AAAAHHH!!!" Someone pounced at him and he turned around staring at the one-and-only… "RON!! I missed you so much! Come over here and tell me all about what happened. Draco, I'll talk to you later, k?" Hermione said bewildered. Draco still stood there staring at where Hermione was standing a while ago. "Tough luck?" It was Cam. Draco just moved his head up and down and the two went over to the men's lounging room.
