After the annoying Pansy left, Draco and Hermione continued to walk across
the grounds, they headed for the lake. As they walked they asked each
other questions.
"What do you like to do in your spare time, 'Mione?" he asked her.
"Well, I enjoy reading, but, believe it or not I love to dance and listen to muggle music." she said. "Now its my turn. When is your birthday?"
He looked at her out of the corner of his eye.
"September 13th," he said. "My father wanted me to be born on October 13th but there wasn't a spell to fix the date." He looked to the ground.
"I have another question..." she said. "What is your favorite color?"
"I have two favorite colors... They are black and green." he said softly. He stuttered and looked at the ground. "I have a... well... a personal question..." he asked humbily.
She stopped at the edge of the water, just behind a large tree and sat down on the soft grass.
"Yes?" she said softly. She could not deny that she, Hermione Granger, the one who hated Draco Malfoy as of six years ago, had feelings for this young man.
"Do you really like Ron... you know.. like... that?" he asked sheepishly, his eyes betraying no emotion.
"In a way." she sighed. "He is nice and all, but jeeze can a guy get anymore shy??"
He smiled to himself. He sat down next to her and layed back, resting his head on his arms. He looked up at the sky. It was a twinkling blue... just like his eyes.
She sighed and layed back as well. She couldn't think of anything else she wanted to ask him right now. Suddenly, Draco leaned over her and....
brushed the hair out of her face.
"You are so beautiful." he said softly. He leaned over and just as he was going to kiss her, Ron came up behind the tree.
"HERMIONE?!?!" he cried. "What are you doing here....with Draco??"
She sat up and looked into her boyfriends amazed and slightly mad face.
"Ron... honey... I can explain everything..." she stammered weakly.
"No. I don't need your stupid explanation." yelled Ron who was now fuming mad, his eyes had fallen on the stunned Draco, who was now standing behind Hermione.
"You obviously like HIS" he pointed to Draco, "more than mine." His face was a picture of anger. She suddenly stood her face very red. She screamed at Ron and she began to cry.
"Well what if I do?" she yelled. "He is kind and caring... and.. I have feelings for him!"
Ron looked stunned. Draco looked from Ron to Hermione and walked away very quickly before his emotions got the better of him.
"What?" Ron said softly. "What did you say?" He looked totally abashed. He couldn't believe his ears, his girlfriend...the one who hated Draco with a passion, now has feelings for him.
"I said... that I want to break up with you!" she cried. She ran past him. She left Ron standing there behind the tree, completely stunned.
"Good-bye Hermione," he said softly as she left. So now she's my ex- girlfriend...
He wandered away into the descending darkness until it engulfed him....
"What do you like to do in your spare time, 'Mione?" he asked her.
"Well, I enjoy reading, but, believe it or not I love to dance and listen to muggle music." she said. "Now its my turn. When is your birthday?"
