If only for one night

Here I am sitting at a table all by myself on the most romantic night of the year. Dumbledore had decided to have a Valentine's Day Ball, many boys had asked me but I had turned them down because my heart had already been given to another, Draco Malfoy, it was bad enough every time I saw him my heart broke but tonight he was breathtaking in his black tuxedo, it was a muggle fashioned ball. Instead of having his hair slicked back he had it loose and there he was with Pansy Parkinson drooling over him. I couldn't tell if he was enjoying himself or not but I hope he wasn't because I don't think I could take it.

I knew I must have looked silly crossing my fingers and looking longingly at the Slytherin part of the room so I looked down, I so desperately wanted him to ask me to dance just one dance.

Draco's POV.

"Agh, Pansy get off of me," I said dangerously. She started crying and ran of to tell Blaise her on the side boyfriend.

I looked over at her again, she looked incredibly beautiful she was wearing her hair in a french twist with a few wisps of hair framing her face and her silver strapless dress made my heart leap at the sight of her. I had liked her for the longest time Hermione Granger, a mudblood and a Gryfindor it wasn't meant to be but maybe just for tonight she would dance with him.

He looked at her fingers they where crossed like she was wishing for something and then she looked right at me and blushed, her brown eyes met mine and I knew what she wanted I got up and walked across the room just as 'Can you feel the love tonight' started to play. I offered her my hand and she took it, and without a word I led her out onto the dance floor she wrapped her arms around me and leaned her head on my shoulder we started dancing along with the music I knew there were people staring at us but all I could see was her. My heart was about to explode as I listened to the music:

And can you feel the love tonight

It is where we are

It's enough for this wide-eyed wanderer

That we got this far

And can you feel the love tonight

How it's laid to rest

It's enough to make kings and vagabonds

Believe the very best

There's a time for everyone if they only learn

That the twisting kaleidoscope moves us all in turn

There's a rhyme and reason to the wild outdoors

When the heart of this star-crossed voyager beats in time with yours

And can you feel the love tonight

It is where we are

It's enough for this wide-eyed wanderer

That we got this far

And can you feel the love tonight

How it's laid to rest

It's enough to make kings and vagabonds

Believe the very best

It's enough to make kings and vagabonds

Believe the very best

She looked up at me and smiled then whispered to me " I love you Draco," she said with tears in her eyes. "I love you too Hermione, my love," I said hoarsely about to cry myself and I leaned down and kissed her passionately.

' If only for one night' they both thought.
