This time all I want is you
there is no one else
who can take your place
this time you burned me with your eyes
you see past all the lies
you take it all away
"Ms. Granger, professor Dumbledore would like to see you in his office."
"Yes, professor." Hermione slowly walked to Dumbledore's office, it probably had something to do with being Head Girl.
She entered the room, and noticed that Draco was there also.
"Ah, Ms.Granger, you're here." Professor Dumbledore said. "Please sit." Hermione took a seat and eagerly awaited what he had to say. "As you know already, you're Head Boy and Girl. Now, your first duty is too make sure that everyone is following the school rules. And also, this year we have decided to have a friendly competition, other than quidditch. You will be making up teams, four people from each house. You have to come up with the teams, and which tasks they will do, and who's playing against who, and determine what the tasks they will do, and how to decide the winner. Sound clear?" He asked.
Hermione and Draco nodded their heads.
"Well, that is all. Have a good evening. Oh yes, you can work on your project in the Head study."
They quickly walked out of his office, and down the steps that lead into the corridor. "Do you want to meet there after dinner?" Hermione asked. Draco nodded and they went their separate ways.
~***~
Hermione, quickly ate her dinner, and began to stand up. "Hermione where're you going?" Harry asked curiously. "Oh, I'm planning something with Malfoy." "Malfoy? What're you doing with him." Hermione rolled her eyes. "He's Head Boy, and we have to plan something, and I have to go. I'll see you two later." And with that Hermione walked away to the Heads' study room. (Kinda like a common room, except for the Head Boy and Girl to do a project in without being interrupted.)
Hermione climbed through the portrait and into the study, Draco was already there. "Hi Draco." Hermione said happily. "Hey Hermione."
They started to plan what the activities were going to be, and they'd worry about making up teams later. After an hour of planning, they took a break.
They were sitting on the comfy chairs in front of the fire, when Draco spoke. "Do you want to play a game of Clue?" "Clue?" Hermione asked curiously. "Yeah, I brought it from home, so we could play it." Hermione smiled, and they started to play Clue, just like old times eh?
"Hermione, can I ask you something, but you have to promise to answer truthfully." "Sure, go ahead."
"Am I still your friend?"
"Of course you are." Hermione said while frowning, a confused frown.
"Does what everybody think affect you?"
"Umm.no." Hermione said still confused. "Why?"
"No reason."
*He's a little messed up right now * Hermione thought.
At 10:00 p.m. Hermione and Draco left to go to their common rooms.
^ And that night, they slept peacefully, because they had been together for 3 hours, and didn't need to go down to the lake. ^
~***~
The next day Harry and Ron bombarded her with questions like: what happened, what'd he do, what were you doing, why is he Head Boy, blah blah blah.
They were walking down the corridor, Ron just asked if he could hurt Malfoy, when Draco came up to Hermione.
"Hey, Hermione." He said cheerfully.
"Hi, Draco." Hermione said confused yet again.
"You know yesterday what I asked you?" He asked.
"Yes." Hermione said, not seeing where this was going.
"Well, do you still mean it?"
"Yes."
"Are you sure?"
"..Positive...Why?"
And as soon as the words had come out of her mouth, she was embraced in Draco's arms, and he was.kissing her? Hermione didn't pull away, as she heard the gasps around them. She was surprised that Ron or Harry hadn't killed him yet. But they were too shocked to move!
Draco was enjoying it, everybody around gasping and wheezing, pinching themselves to see if it was real or they were just dreaming. He couldn't have felt better! He didn't care, she didn't care, and now finally everybody knew!
After the shock, had worn off, Ron and Harry came and jumped between the two of them.
"What do you think your doing Hermione?" Ron yelled.
Hermione, looked shocked, but took that emotion off her face, grabbed Draco's arm, and they walked down the hallway together.
"What the heck is she doing?" Harry asked.
"I don't know, but it's scaring me." Ron said.
"Me as well." And they stomped off madly. They were in a very bad mood.
~***~
"Did you hear everyone." Draco asked as they walked into the sunny lawns of Hogwarts.
"That was priceless!" Hermione said.
"Yeah, I wish I had one of those muggle things that Colin always carries around."
"A camera?"
"Yeah. Are you scared of what Potter and Weasley will say?"
"Not any more, just as long as everyone knows we're friends." Hermione and Draco smiled, and sat on the grass watching the sun gleam off the top of the lake.
"Now, can I ask you something?"
"And what would that be?" Draco asked curiously.
"Why'd you do that?"
Draco stared at her and smiled. "Well, just to show you that I don't care what other people think either." Hermione smiled, even though it wasn't the answer she was hoping to hear. ~***~
For the rest of the day Hermione avoided everyone she saw, except for Draco. And that project of theirs couldn't have come at a better time. Harry and Ron weren't speaking to her, come to think of it nobody was.
Draco was also glad that they had the project together. Because all the Slytherin's were saying some pretty rude things to him.
~***~
Hermione and Draco were sitting in the study, they had planned a lot of things, but neither of them wanted to go back to their common rooms.
"Was it worth it?" Draco asked Hermione.
Hermione, thought for a moment but quickly said "If I could take back anything in life, that would be the thing that I wouldn't, well that and you moving into the neighbourhood. Why did you move into a muggle neighbourhood anyway?"
"Well my mom was a little sick of magic, with Lucious going to St.Mungos, and we just needed a break for awhile so she decided to move into a quiet muggle neighbourhood, so we could forgot magic, until I would come back to Hogwarts. And I guess it was just fate that you lived in the same neighbourhood."
Hermione smiled, and wished that the night could never end. Of course she always wished that when she was with Draco. She was in love all right, and with the best person in the world. Sometimes things can be misleading, and Draco was just one of those things. She could never forget him, she wouldn't let herself forget him, and she hoped that he would never forget her.
Draco at that moment wanted to tell her, how he loved her so much. She was a special person; she could look past everything, and think about the things now, and not the things in the past. Even if Draco would never get his chance to tell her, he hoped that she would think of that one thing in the past, him.
They were drowning in their thoughts, when the clock chimed, saying that it was 12:00 a.m.
"Well, we better get going, even though we're Head Boy and Girl, Filch would probably make up a lame excuse for us being out late."
Draco nodded, and stood up. And when Hermione was leaving through the portrait hole, he went up and kissed her again.
"And what was that for this time?" She asked. "That was so that you can never forget me, and also to remind you that what other people think, doesn't matter.
Hermione smiled. "Don't worry Draco, I could never in a million years forget you."
"And I could never in a million years forget you either."
~***~
Hermione was lying in her beds, thoughts directed towards Draco. How much she loved him, if only he could love her. But of course Hermione didn't know that he loved her as much as she loved him. (A/n say that five times fast :p)
~***~
"Do you think we should ask Hermione, what that was all about today in the corridor?" Harry asked Ron.
"I'm not talking to her. How could she? So, now she's friends with that slimy worm?!"
"Maybe she has a good reason too"
"Harry, this is Malfoy we're talking about..Malfoy!"
"I know, but I think there's something Hermione didn't tell us at the beginning of term."
"Well no kidding! Like, how she's friends with Malfoy!"
"I mean, WHY she's friends with him, why."
"Well, you can ask her, because I'm not speaking to her. And I mean how could she? Does she know how many times he's called her a mudblood?"
~***~
Hermione could hear Harry and Ron through the wall, and frankly they were being more like older brothers than friends. It would be an interesting day tomorrow. But Hermione wasn't sure if she was going to tell them about the summer. But, knowing Harry, he probably already knew.
Hermione cleared her thoughts, and made her mind go to something happy, like fluffy little bunnies, and cow's jumping over moons.
Draco, had only one thing on his mind, and that was: No regrets.
There's chapter 7! It's longer, yay! * Claps * I tried very hard to make it a lot longer, but I didn't want to start a new day in this chapter, because wouldn't that be a little fast paced? But what chapter of mine isn't. Lol. I know that I needa be more descriptive, and I'm working on it. My usual 3 pages on Microsoft word for a chapter, well this chapter is 5 pages long of pure story. And this little thing that I'm writing now is on page 6. But anyhow, hope you enjoyed this chapter, because it's my favourite one so far.
Ellie, your question was answered!
