Chapter 5
Weeks passed by and the Arcade Place was almost finished. Draco and Hermoine had been spending all their free time together rehearsing their lines. Draco has learned a lot about Hermoine.
One day when they were rehearsing, Draco asked her some personal questions.
"Why don't you care about what other people think?"
"What do you mean?"
"You let other people judge you and call you names. I know your more than just brains."
"I don't really care about what other people think of me anymore. I have better things to do than worrying about what others think ok my clothes, my looks, my friends and whatever the hell I do. I made a list of things I want to accomplish before I…" Hermoine paused and tried to go back to rehearsing.
"Before you what?" Draco asked.
"Never mind."
"Ok. Then tell me some of the things you want to accomplish."
" I don't know… Why are you so interested, anyway?"
"Oh come on. Why not? I won't say anything to anybody. I swear." Draco looked at her with his sexy silvery-blue eyes and begged like a puppy. "Please."
Hermoine couldn't resist and gave in. "Oh, all right"
"Ok, what's first on your list?"
"I'd tell you, but then I'd have to kill you."
"Fine, tell me something else."
"Ok …...I want to get a tattoo."
Draco laughed hysterically.
"What's so funny? I knew I shouldn't have told you."
"No, no I'm sorry. But that's one of your goals to accomplish?"
"What's wrong with that?"
"Nothing, nothing. I just thought that since you're Hermoine Granger, you would want to become the president or pass the N.E.W.T exams this year."
"Oh don't worry. Passing exams are always on my list."
Draco laughed again.
"Tell me the rest."
"Why do you want to know?"
"I don't know. Just tell me the rest, then I wont ask you anymore personal questions again."
"Ok fine. I've always wanted to learn all the spells without taking years learning them in the classrooms. I also want to be in two places at once"
"Hmm… That's very interesting." Draco said sarcastically. "But they're so simple."
" I know, but it's better than nothing."
( There was more on her list, but it would be too boring if I kept on talking about it the entire chapter.)
It was the day before the play and Hermoine was heading back to the Gryffindor common room when she saw someone with blonde hair heading for the Astronomy Tower. She knew who it was and decided to go follow him. When she got to the door, she heard Malfoy trying to find some of the constellations.
"Where the hell is the Big Dipper?" He was getting frustrated.
"What are you doing?" Hermoine interrupted.
"I should ask you the same question."
"I was just wondering why someone would come up here and try to find the constellations."
"Oh, I just like looking at them."
"Can you show me some?"
"Sure."
They spent at least half an hour naming all the stars.
"I've always wanted a star named after me."
Draco looked into Hermoine's eyes. They started to lean forward to each other and…
"Drakie." Pansy's voice interrupted them and it was coming closer.
"We better go."
"Yeah, I have to get some rest for the play tomorrow."
"Me, too."
Hermoine was just heading out the door when she heard Malfoy mumble something ("I'm falling in love with you")
"Did you say something?" Hermoine asked.
"Um, I just wanted to wish you good luck tomorrow."
"Oh, you too."
"Let's go before Flinch of Pansy sees us."
They left the astronomy tower and headed for their dorms.
A/N: Sorry if I took so long to update. I lost interest and plus I haven't been able to go on line. I have two more chapters on paper right now, but I'm too lazy to type it up. I'll try to do it during the break.
