That day Draco didn't go to school. He had gotten permission from Dumbledore himself.
"Draco, I know what happened last night and if you wish you and Hermione can stay in your dorm today. Would you like that?"
"Yeah, I need company"
"Ok. Miss Granger may I speak to you please?"
"Sure professor" she stood up from the couch and walked into their kitchen.
"What did he dream about?"
"Um.his father, beating him. When I came into his room I saw that it looked like he had had the Cruciatus Curse cast upon him. And he had earlier this year." She said the last part in a whisper
"Ok thank you miss Granger I will see you both at the feast tonight. Good day" And with that he turned his heel and slipped into secret passage way connecting their kitchen to the main one
Hermione returned to their common room to find Draco holding her portable CD player in his hand
"Mione how in the hell did you get this thing to work here?"
"Draco I am the most powerful witch ever to walk this earth ha!" she finished with her tongue poking out. Draco laughed "ok well one of the most powerful"
"Ok then" Draco said as he lifted the headphones to his ears pressed play and listened to LeeAnn Rimes, The Safest Place
Daytime, I'm fine Everything is back to normal Last night I thought that I would die I had nightmares I was so scared Thank god that you are by my side To hold me when I cry
Hermione sat down as she listened to the song and started to hum along
I wanna be strong But I don't wanna be alone tonight I wanna believe that I can save the world And make it right, but I'm only human And you've got a hero's face Right here in your arms Is the safest place, the safest place
Hermione watched as she saw a tear slip down Draco's cheek
It feels so real You showed me I can trust you With emotions I had locked away It was your touch, your words They heal the deepest part of me That only you can see
She watched as he went for her hand to hold on to, to feel safe as he remembered how safe he felt in her arms the night before
I wanna be strong But I don't wanna be alone tonight I wanna believe that I can save the world And make it right, but I'm only human And you've got a hero's face Right here in your arms Is the safest place
He fell into her arms crying remembering what his father had done
As long as I am with you As long as I can feel you That's all I need to keep me going On and on and on and on
Hermione held him. Draco's head was on her chest listening to the steady beat of her heart; it seemed to calm him just as it had the night before
I wanna believe that I can save the world And make it right, but I'm only human And you've got a hero's face Right here in your arms Is the safest place Right here in your arms is the safest place, the safest place, the safest place
Hermione took the headphones off his head when the song finished
"She's right. I feel the safest when I'm lying in your arms."
"Draco I feel the same" she kissed his forehead
"I love you Hermione"
"I love you Draco"
And with that they kissed with the same amount of passion as they had in their first kiss
