Chapter 9

"What are you doing here J.T?" Sarina asked.

"I'm here to install computers."

"Ok J.T that's getting old; really what are you doing here?"

"No seriously, I'm here installing computers; remember I work at Digital Doings?"

"Oh I see, well do it quickly and quietly."

J.T. and Sarina quietly made their way back into the class room. The class was still giggling at comment that was made by J.T. Through out the rest of the lesson Hermione and Draco never said another word together. When the lesson was over Hermione got up and went to hand in her homework which she had already completed. She quietly went back to her seat grabbed her bag, she swung it over and then while Draco was packing his bag she purposely hit him. Draco stumbled a little because the hit took him by shock. He watched her leave the room and then left himself.

"So it looks like your little plan worked." Sarina said sneaking up behind J.T. and putting her hands on his hips.

"Huh? What plan?" he asked innocently.

"The one to get Hermione and Draco to slowly begin to hate each other."

"What? Oh are you talking about what happened in class?"

"Yup."

"Oh, well, that was not a plan, it's not my fault my looks have an affect on a lot of people." He smirked with the famous Malfoy smirk.

"Oh so that's why people have been dieing." "Ha ha very funny"

"I'm glad you agree." She started hysterically laughing.

J.T. swiftly moved in front of her and enjoined her in a passionate kiss. They kissed will great passion for what seem like an eternity. Sarina finally broke the kiss.

"J.T. you should leave."

"Yea I should...later."

"Bye" she whispered.

**** Hermione sat son the couch in the common room thinking of all the reasons she hated Draco for.

"Rrrr I hate him!"

"Why do you hate him?" asked the voice which seemed to come from the portrait on the wall. She had blond locks of curls and bright green eyes.

"Because."

"Give 5 good reasons."

"Ok fine 1. He's two faced and I hate it! 2. He was staring at my cousin! 3. He's totally gorgeous Oh my god no I did not jus say that!"

"HA! So wow he has 2 faults! But you still like him; it's so obvious that you're jealous!" She started giggling.

"Oh shut up."

"FINE I WILL! But I was only telling the truth that you're afraid to hear." And with that she left her portrait.

Hermione sat and was really afraid that what the girl in the picture had said was true. Was she really jealous? Or was she jus worried that she could lose him? But then why was she playing the same game? Her were all interrupted by the portrait closing and a Draco walked in. They rapidly made eye contact but she looked away as soon as their eyes met.

"Hermione, look, I hate this game you're playing with me! Ok? Like come on! You're pissed off at me; you're hitting me with your bag, kicking me, slapping me and giving me the god damn silent treatment! Like please this is bullshit!" Draco said while he paced in front of her.

Hermione had, had enough she was more than pissed. She got up and went over to where Draco was pacing and stopped him.

"So basically you are saying I'm acting like a total bitch!?"

"I am not saying that! I'm saying you're being immature playing these stupid mind games!"

"Oh so now I have all the faults! Cause you're perfect right!? I'm just a fucked up bullshiting mudblood!"

"Fuck, Hermione! Don't you understand I'm only trying to protect you! Hermione J.T. literally spells trouble! You're falling! And Hermione I won't be there to catch you!"

"Why won't you be there to catch me!? Isn't that what you're supposed to do?!" she had just started crying at her last statement.

"I won't catch because I'm literally telling you that J.T. is planning something for you! And it's not a good thing when he plans! I care for you and I don't want to see you get hurt!" Draco looked as though he was about to cry but he would never cry.

"You know what?! Just forget it! Do as you please you don't belong to me; so why do I care? I really don't know!" But he knew the exact reason why he cared. Draco looked at her once more and left her there to cry by herself.

Draco went up to his room and sat at his desk. He signed into msn and looked to see if his newest best friend was on; but unfortunately she wasn't. A window quickly popped up.

**** "Is the plan working J.T." asked a dark voice which hissed his every word.

"Why its working excellently."

"You seem so confident, and u better be because as you know my time is coming and once I am gone you shall take my place." "Yes my lord I am aware of that." He snapped.

"Don't you dare get mouthy with me; I am still the lord of the dark world and you shall respect me until I am no more, once you rule you may do as you, please but as long as I'm here I am respected, is that understood?!" He barked back.

"Yes my lord I'm terribly sorry, it won't happen again..."

"Now leave my presence and go and complete the plan we need the girl!"

"Yes master."

With that J.T. left the room and started thinking to him self. 'What the fuck is moldimort's problem?! Like Jesus, I'm doing him a favor he's a fucken moron the old hag. Well I will show him what J.T. Malfoy can do' with that last thought he walked in to the dark shadows with his family trade mark smirk.

****
He was looking through the books, J.T had just run away, but that was normal now, this was only what the 50th time? But anyway the book he had needed was not here, of course. He had been asking for the same book forever, but did he get it, NO! he couldn't get his book because J.T got a motorcycle, which he used to run away. Suddenly Draco heard cheering it seems that the lost son had returned Oh Joy!

Draco slowly walked downstairs, he had nothing to run for.

"Oh J.T thank god your home,"

"Hey yeah man we thought we had lost you" Draco looked around they were having a party, and there in the middle of it all was J.T

"Hey look lucky me, my wonderful brother Jeffrey Todd is back home, this has to be the happiest moment in my life!" Draco said mocking him.

"Draco I know you love me, but seriously you're making a fool of your self" J.T said rudely while showing off his newest possession, the book Draco wanted.

"Draco honestly what is wrong with you boy, go up to your room now!" Luicuis said aggravated with his younger son

"Why can't you be more like your brother?" Narcissa said. Draco felt as though he had just been slapped, All his life Draco had worked to impress his family and still now, his brother who does nothing is praised. "You would have less, if I was like him, why can't you see that?" Draco mumbled while walking up to his room.

His brother had everything, good looks, quidditch skills, business smarts, and most importantly his parents' love. But why would he care his parents obviously didn't. Draco lay down in his bed for the night, he felt as though he had changed like he was colder. He smiled to him self wickedly. Just then J.T came into the room, he threw the book into the corner.

"Of course it's good to be home, here I get anything I want, including your misery" J.T said with a smile on his face while he was changing. Draco stood up he looked at J.T

"You don't understand do you, this is a game, isn't it? No wait of course it is well maybe you should pay!" Draco said his eyes becoming a bright silver, J.T looked at his brother, a hint of fear over took him. But then he assured himself, Draco did not have his wand so he couldn't do anything, right?

Draco's eyes were so malicious that J.T began to walk back. All of a sudden a bright light shot out at J.T it hit him right along the chest. J.T fell back and out of conscious.

Draco sat up in his bed it was morning and just a night mare, that had been the day that Draco became cold and heartless, But Hermione seemed to break that in him and it wasn't a good thing, or was it? Draco sighed. He didn't know any more, his perfect world was turned upside down at the mention of her name; his heart skipped a beat when he saw her smile. Why though he couldn't love her, it was impossible, or was that not true as well? One thing was for sure he would stop loving her now because the last thing he needed right now, was a broken heart. But he couldn't stop loving her it was impossible. He wouldn't let go of her, he had to hold on or else he'd have nothing else to live for; would he? Or was this also one big lie?

**** The next morning I must have been so excited to go and meet Silver Ice, that, I tripped over my bed, spilled a bottle of nail polish, broke 3 clips, slipped on a bar of soap and broke a vase. Draco kept on screaming at me telling me that if I were to break one more thing he'd send his big ass brother to come and bitch slap me to knock some fucken sense into me. This is sort of how our argument went:

"How drunk are you, can you not see that there are things in a room? Listen if you don't stop, I will get J.T my gay brother to personally, come and bitch slap you"

"Oh actually I wouldn't mind you doing that at all; maybe you can personally get him to come here and bitch slap me naked?"

"No, I've already been scared by that sight, but you know what would be nice? If your cousin would come and bitch slap me, she could ware clothes, if she wanted that is, but who cares she's "slapping" me" He then winked and went into a trance.

"Mmmm oh yeah right there, now I know why they call her a horny teacher." Draco said still in a trance.

"Ewww...can you...umm..not! She's my cousin, what do you see in her?"

"Her body, her face, whoa I should stop thinking there, some one else is getting a bit worked up. Anyway, why Granger are you jealous?"
"What if I am" I replied in a whisper, before walking into my room, which is where I am now.

Draco Malfoy, why does that name mean so much to me? He's nothing, right? But his smile, his lips, his eyes, body, voice, soul...I can't stop..does that mean I love him?

**** Draco looked at Hermione's door with an expression of seriousness, what had he done now? Hermione is all he had and he hurt her, without even knowing it. He walked to the door and in her room, only to find her lying sitting on the bed her face red a puffy from crying. He sat on the bed besides her gently turning her around to face him. He gently kissed the tears from her eyes and looked at her almost as though for the first time. He leaned over and whispered to her inches away from her lips,

"Hermione God always said that angels should not cry, and I must say the same for you; your the closest thing to an angel I have," Hermione looked at him and felt like crying again but for a different reason. She began to open her mouth to speak but could not. He kissed her. It was a tender gentile loving kiss. Draco then broke the kiss looked Hermione in the eyes then stood up and left the room.

**** Draco had just finished showering about 5 minutes after Hermione left. He hoped she forgave him for all this mess, all though it was partially her fault. Draco had finally finished dressing and went to go sit in his jaguar, silver jx220 to be precise. The car was his refuge, tinted windows, sunroof, the hole nine yards, it was practically the perfect car.

Draco began to drive through Hogwarts winding roads then down the dirt roads leading to Hogsmade, while doing so he was think of how this "Velvet Rose" chick can help him forget about Hermione. She was like another piece or him; but he didn't want her to be part of him, or did he? Did he really want to erase Hermione from his life? Should he really go and meet this chick that could erase Hermione? All these questions were flooding through Draco's mind. Draco pulled up into the centre of the village and parked in front of a florist to pick up his red rose. Draco came out five minutes later carrying a gorgeous new born rose. He opened his car door and got his leather jacket and started walking down the street of Hogsmade. They had earlier decided to meet at a little Italian restaurant called: Gino's. He continued walking until he reached a crowd of people surrounding a store. 'There must be a sale' he thought before heading into the crowd. He walked in and looked at every girl trying to find one with a white rose until he spotted a girl with light brown curly hair and sparkling brown eyes.

"Shit.." He muttered. "Hermione is Velvet Rose..Why didn't I see it before?"

Draco decided to try some thing; he hid in an unseen alley and waved the red rose out from behind the wall so all that could be seen was his hand and the rose. Hermione quickly noticed the red rose and thought to herself 'Ha that must be him I guess he wants us to see each other in private, what a smart guy!' Hermione walked up to the waving arm but before she passed the wall she was grabbed in a harsh manner and a hand covered her mouth. She was yelling but of course nobody could hear her. She was rapidly turned around to face a blond haired boy with gorgeous blue eyes.

"Shhh...shhh.it's ok it's only me Draco."

"You're Silver Ice?" She asked quietly.

"Yeah and you must be Velvet rose? Am I correct?"

"Yeah you are. So I guess I'll see you later." She turned to leave but Draco caught her arm.

"Yeah.umm where are you going? I have reservations at Gino's! The best Italian restaurant in Hogsmade and I really don't feel like wasting the opportunity of eating there."

"So what are you going to do?"

"I'm going to take you on the date you came here for.that is if you don't mind accompanying me."

"Well do you want me there or are you jus doing this because you have to show up there with someone?"

"No it's because I want you there. Now will you join me for dinner?"

"Yes and thank you for the invitation." She said mockingly.

Draco took Hermione's hand and they made their way down the street laughing slightly from them not knowing they were msn buddies. They happily walked into Gino's. Gino (the owner of the restaurant) quickly came to seat and serve them. After enjoying their meal they decided to sit and talk for a while longer.

"Hermione?"

"Yes Draco.."

"Do you trust me?"

There was silence for a few moments.

"I-I." she stuttered.

"Do you trust me?" He asked more demandingly hoping this time for an answer.

"Yes..I trust you."

"Good, come on get up, I want to show you something."

With that they got up and left the little restaurant leaving some money to pay for their dinner.

A/N- Hey everyone..Thanks for being patient and waiting for the next chappy..Sorry it took so long I was so busy these last few days I hope you don't mind ne way more to come...TO BE CONTINUED.......
