of his... (Or Harry's etc..)
TFPTD Chapter
Hermione slid the door open slowly, her hands shaking slightly.
"Malfoy?" she whispered unbelievably.
She noticed that his eyes were closed and there were tears coming out of them. She slowly stepped into the compartment and silently sat down across from the sleeping Slytherin.
'Iwonder what he's dreaming about...' she pondered, but quickly shook the thought away. 'Why should I care about him, all he does is call me mudblood all day and insult me in any and every way possible in his stupid, arrogant, ferret mind.' Hermione was so caught up in her thoughts that she hadn't noticed that there was a lady at the door. Hermione quickly jumped up and slid open the door , apologizing to the lady. "That's quite alright dear, now, what would you like?" Hermione was confused, then she saw that the lady was pushing a cart and it was filled with SWEETS! Hermione stared at the sweets , suddenly realizing how hungry she really was. The woman glanced at her strangely.
"Are you alright dear?" she asked, seeing the glazed expression on the young witch's face. Hermione blinked and shook her head slightly.
"I'm fine, just hungry, that's all. You know how girls are about chocolate." She said jokingly. The lady nodded her head understandingly.
"So, what would you like? "
Hermione gazed at all of the sweets adoringly. "Oh! I can't decide ! It all looks so good! " At this statement Hermione looked down sadly. "But I don't have enough." She realized as she reached into her pocket and pulled out a few coins. "Here, take this." she heard. She turned around. There was Draco holding out his hand a few coins in his pale hand. Hermione cocked her head to one side suspiciously and narrowed her eyes. "Why should I trust you ferret? "She asked .
Draco smirked. (A/N- Yummy!!! ^_^)
"Maybe because I have money, Granger, and that is besides the fact that you're drooling over chocolate and it's making me sick." he said sneering. Hermione thought about this. On one hand, she was accepting money from Malfoy. But on the other hand, she was starving.
'Damn, I should have eaten breakfast'
She looked at the chocolate, , then back to Draco. Then back again. "Fine" she agreed, and he held out the money. She was giving the money to the lady when she asked, "Why are you , of all people, lending me money?" she asked suspiciously.
Draco flinched at this statement , but Hermione was too busy inhaling her chocolate to notice. "I'm not completely evil you know, besides, I know what its like to have a chocolate craving too. " he said and Hermione smiled as they walked back into the compartment. Draco laughed quietly. "So you're Head Girl this year... I should have known, you top in every class." He said dejectedly. Despite her chocolate craving, she did notice this, and frowned.
"Malfoy?"
"I take it you've noticed my change in appearance?" he gestured to himself. Hermione nodded. "It is a big change for you Draco." she said as if it was the most obvious thing in the world. Draco stared at her. Hermione figeted. "What?" she asked, feeling uncomfortable now. Draco kept starting. 'oh no, now what? "Y-you just called me D-Draco..." he said , eyes wide, mouth wide open. As this information processed in Hermiones mind, her expression slowly changed to that which resembled Draco's. Hermione was having an internal battle with herself. o God! Why did I do that? What do I say? should I deny it? Is he mad? Why is he still staring at me? her last thought was laced with annoyance and curiosity why? Hermione looked up to se Draco smiling, truly, genuinely smiling. Hermione was somewhat scared. she had never seen Draco Malfoy smile before. She panicked as Draco leaned towards her and lightly brushed his lips on hers. sHermione saw fireworks. This was her first kiss after all, your supposed to see them but with Malfoy? She thought, but ignored the thought as she melted into his kiss. She wondered if he knew it was her first kiss. Reality hitched in for them , the kiss ended, and the fireworks vanished. When she opened her eyes Draco looked halfway in between, looking like he was going to burst into tears or die from shock. Finally he spoke. "Oh my god, I- I'm so sorry, I I didn't, I mean y-you, and her, couldn't ,- miss-, I'm I.", he stuttered. He would have kept talking for years, but Hermione put one of her fingers on his lips to quiet him. She looked confused, but she was laughing. " now," she said slowly, "Take a breath and tell me again, slowly!", so he did and once again tried to explain. " I had a lot of things happen to me over the summer, most of them not so pleasing." he said softly as the memories came back. Memories that he hoped he would never have to relive.
"I had a girlfriend over the summer she was extremely nice, she was pretty, smart, and perfect in every way. Except one. She.was a muggle. As you probably already know, Malfoys aren't' usually the first people to go up and date a muggle. We had a really good time over the summer , I got to know her better than anyone I had ever known. Little did I know , my father found out, and he...he sacrificed her to Voldemort."
Draco closed his eyes in pain. Hermione looked at him the way she would have if he were a tiny puppy no bigger than her hand.
"I- The reason that I kissed you was that , you just look so much like her. You act like her too," He said softly. "And you- you're beautiful." he said looking at her as if seeing her for the first time.
Ruining the moment, Hermione's cell phone rang.
"Hello? Oh! Salùt! tù mapelle Riley: oui? " she said eagerly.
Draco looked flabbergasted.
'Since when does she know how to speak French?'
A few minutes later, Hermione hung up. "Sorry about that," she said. "That was a friend of mine that I met on one of my trips to France." Draco nodded.
" Um. Draco ?" she asked hesitantly. "Before my phone rang , did you mean it ?"
He frowned. "Did I mean what?" Hermione looked troubled. "Did you mean it when you,.. when you said I was beautiful ?"
She looked anxious, and Draco had to admit, she looked adorable. He leaned forward and took Hermione's hand in his and swallowed.
"I meant every word." he said honestly.
