NOTE: I do not own any of these characters! Harry Potter is copy righted by Miz Rowling and Moulin Rouge is copyrighted by 2oth Century Fox, I'm just here to amuse myself. Thanks for all the readers! I hit a very very large and stiff brick wall called writer's block. so this chapter maybe a bit..urgh. Oh and I've tried to cut down on the swearing...I noticed what a potty mouth I have. o^_^o
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Draco had walked about 100 feet when he suddenly stopped.
"What in the world am I doing? It's going to take me DAYS to get her to the Hospitle Wing, I might as well just take her to her room" Draco slowly turned around and continued back to his room.
"Serpensortia" he whispered to the old woman gaurding his door. She nodded polietly and swung open. It was quite a task, getting Hermione through the small portrait hole, after many trys, Draco gave up and decided to just carry her in. Gaining a few suspicious glances from the portrait, he eventurally got both himself and Herm in.
*Well, I might as well first place her on my bed so I can see if her door's open* Draco thought, kicking his shoes off and treding across his room.
"There" He siad happily, placing Hermione on his own 4-post bed. *She's really pretty when she sleeps..too bad she fainted, I coulda had some fun. Well..I cant just leave her like this, I should see if her door's open. Then I could place her in her own room for the night*
Draco walked to Hermione's bathroom door and turned the nob, getting no results.
*Blasted, she must have locked the door. Must get my want out then.*
"Alohomora" Draco pointed his want at the door. No reaction.Again and again he tried, no results.
*Bloody hell! The woman must have put a spell on the door. Guess she's stayingin my room tonight. Probably wont be too thrilled in the morning* Draco wrinkled his nose as he walked back into his room. Draco fell into his large couch and stared at Hermione for awhile, running his hand through his hair.
"I should at least get her comfortable." Draco sighed, getting up and sitting down beside Herm. He took off her shoes and threw them aside. Then took off her robe and placed it on the chair. He was amazed how easily her outer wear came off. It was almost like she was awake and turning so he could take them off. Eventurally, Hermione was lying peacefully on Draco's bed in her white blouse and her grey skirt. Draco pulled his blankets up to her sholders and happily tucked her in.
*She is quite pretty...maybe I should tell her...tell her how long I've liked her. I guess she has to have some feelings for me right? She did kiss me earlier tonight. But there's my damned father and Pancy..the stupid ugly frog. Not to mention Potter and Weasly. This isnt going to be easy..*
Draco returned to his couch and decided to do some reading, pulling out a small paperback book titled "A Story About Love" he made himself a hot cup of tea and read for hours.
"Wow its 3 AM already? Bloody hell I should get to sleep..we have school tomorrow." he yawned, rubbing his eyes with his hands sleeply.
"Now where am I suppose to sleep...I guess I could sleep next to her, my bed's defintally big enough. Okay that works. Better get dressed then." Draco undid the tie on his robes and threw them aside. Throwing his slackers off, he took off his shirt.
*I'm in only my boxers..I hope the woman wont snap. I cant sleep in anything else*
.:Meanwhile Draco's undressing:.
Hermione tossed happily on Draco's bed, unaware it was his. She had a dream, more of a flashback to the beginning of her 6th year. Getting ready to board the Hogwarts Express. She was sitting happily on her trunk, waving fare-well to her parents and waiting for Ron and Harry. The sun shone brightly and there was a light breeze. Hermione was wearing a yellow t-shirt with a long white skirt that came past her knee's. Crossing her legs, she smoothed her long pigtails out and stared at the door, almost counting down the seconds until her friends arrived.
*It's been awhile, where are they?* she pondered, twisting her face lightly.
"Why hello Granger.." purred a voice from behind. Hermione whirled around and was so shocked with what she saw, she fell backwards and flat on her butt. Blaise Zabini cocked one of his eyebrows and smirked evily. Hermione blushed heavily and pulled her knee's closer to her chest.
"What..what do you want Blaise?" Hermione stuttered, her eyes windening.
"Nothing much, just want to take a little peek at your backpack." He said causially, undoing the clip on Hermione's hand bag. Herm watched in horror as Blaise suck his hand into her bag and pulled out the small purple book..better known as her diary.
"You slug, give me my diary back!" she yelled, felling around her pockets for her wand, relaizing it was in her bag and far out of her reach.
"So that's what this little book is. Hermione Grangers diary? Oh I should give THIS a lookie shouldn't I?" he smirked, leafing through the pages.
"NO don't! JUST GIVE IT BACK BLAISE!" Hermione pleeded, knowning the group of Slytherin's on the otherside of the hall were laughing at her. But the laughs and sneer's of her enemies was only a taste of what was to come if Blaise read what was on the page's of Hermiones diary. She had secrets in there no one should ever know.
"If you want it back, then get it from me." He said, raising his hand over his head and far out of Hermione's grasps. It was as if Hermione was the stupid cat and Blaise was the owner, with a ball of yarn. Constantly teasing her.
"You bastard, give it to me!" she sobbed quietly. Feeling tear's swell in the back of her eyes.
"Ha! Never Granger, your not as smart as you seem. You must be one dumb broad to let someone take your diary!" Blaise laughed.
"Give it back to her, Zabini." said a cold voice from behind. Blaise smirk quickly disapeared from his face, as he reconized the voice. A voice that cut through the air like a hot knife through butter. A voice that brought chills to anyone's spine. It was the voice of Draco Malfoy.
Hermione leaned to her right, peeking over Blaise's sholder. Draco was indeed standing behind Blaise with his wand pointed at the back of his head. Hermione stared at him in awe, something was different about him, but she couldnt put her finger on it.
"Dude, Malfoy I was just joking.."
"Just give it to her Blaise before I have to jinx you" Draco said very straight forward.
"Okay..whatever. Here Granger." Blaise shrugged, shoving the book back into Hermione's hands. Blaise walked away, Draco and him exchanging glares until Blaise returned back to the crowd of Slytherin's watching in shock.
"Are you okay Granger?" Draco said softly, walking towards a very confused Hermione. He took one step forward, she took one step back. Suddenly Blaise came up from behind Draco and shoved him forward, causing him to fall ontop of Hermione. His face, centimeters from hers. They stared into eachothers eyes briefly . Draco opened his mouth annnnd Hermione wakes up.
Her eye's opened suddenly. Her whole body jerking awake. Hermione looked at the foot of the bed, confused it wasnt the deep red color.
"Where the hell am I?" she moaned, trying to open her eyes so she could observe her new environment.
Draco turned around, Hermione's voice shocked him.
"Umm...errr..." he stuttered.
Hermione looked around. * Oh Merlin, I'm in a room covered with green and silver. Okay so its ovious I'm in a Slytherin Dorm. Now...my robes along with...alot of my clothes are at the end of the room.....* Hermione looked down at herself in bearly any clothes and gasped. Pulling the large blanket over most of her face.
"Dracomalfoywhatintheworldareyoudoingg" she mummbled.
"What?" Draco, raised his eyebrow.
Hermione pulled the blanket down and repeated herself. "Draco Malfoy what in the WORLD are you doing? Why are you in your underwear and why am I in your bed with only my shirt and skirt. You sick bastard! YOU WERE GOING TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF ME WERN'T YOU?? HOW DID YOU GET ME IN HERE? DID YOU DRRRUG ME!?" Hermione screamed, completly inraged.
"Wait, what..oh NO! No Hermione you don't understand! You and I were snoggling"
"YOU AND I WERE WHAT?!?" Hermione yelled, " I don't remeber us doing any such..." and all the memories came flooding back to her. Harry, the Halloween incident and what happened outside his very door. "Oh...oh oh I'm sorry Draco. I just sorta snapped out of it. I'm sorry for blaming you without looking at the facts."
An awkward silence...
"Well I should get going." Hermione said, getting up and grabbing her clothes, heading for his bathroom door.
"Wait.."
Herm turned around to find Draco putting his hands around her in a large hug. It felt like what Harry had given her before and it touched a part of her heart she thought she locked away. Herm sobed into Draco's chest and didnt deny it was comforting. Draco felt her tears trickle down his bare chest, her hair tickling his chin. Draco whispered comforting words into her ear as he rocked her lightly in his arms.
"I just..*sob* thought that he*sob* loved me *sobs more*"
"It's a little bit funny"
"What are *sniffle* you *sniffle* talking about?" :sniffle sniffle:
"...this feeling inside. I'm not one of those who could easily hide.I dont have much money but boi if i did, I'd buy a big house where we both could live."
"errr....Draco..are you okay?" Hermione asked, gaped." You do have alot of money...your a Malfoy.." she cut herself short.
"If I was a sculptor, but then agian no. Or a man who makes potions in a travelling show. I know its not much but its the best i can do..."
"What the hell.." Hermione looked up at him completly puzzled. She let go of him and walked back. WIth a creeped look on her face. "I think..you should get to sleep, I have to sleep myself." she shot him a look that said 'he's insane'.
Draco continued, his voice raising changing from whispers of words to harmonic singing and suddenly he yelled " My gift is my soong!!!"
Hermione turned around and looked at him in disbelief, " What are you getting at Malfoy?"
"..and this ones for you" lunging after Herm, he didnt want her to leave." And you can tell everybody that this is your song. It might be quite simple but, now that its done. I hope you dont mind..I hope you dont mind, that i put down in words, how wonderful life is now your in the world"
"You...you can sing?"
"Sat on the roof and I kicked of the moss well some of these verses, well they, they got me quite cross. But the suns been kind, while I wrote this song. It's for people like you that keep it turned on. So excuse me for forgetting, but these things I do..you see I've forgotten if there green or their blue.Anyway the thing is...what I really mean.." he paused and held her hand, staring deep into her eyes. "Yours are the sweetest eyes..I've ever seeen."
" Oh....Draco..thats beautiful." Hermione smiled and couldnt believe what stood infront of her. She always thought Draco Malfoy was a cruel, disgusting evil boy who hated her and had a heart that was black as coal. But the Draco Malfoy that stood infront of her was caring, poetic and showed signs of being a romantic. Draco almost swept Hermione off her feet, A simle came upon his face and he suddenly found himself slowdancing with her.
" And you can tell everybody that this is your song, it might be quite simple but...now that its done. I hope you dont mind. I hope you dont mind. That I put down in woords. How wonderful life is now..your...in...the..world"
Draco held his hand out and Hermione twirled. She laughed as he caught her and dipped her head. She suddenly felt happy as Draco held her. They paused before he leaned down and kissed Hermione. She felt like the the heroin in all the Muggle movies she had seen. Suddenly Draco let go of Hermiones hand and walked away to his own bed. She didnt know what to say but walked towards her own room. Closing the door behind her, she threw her head back and slid down to her knee's.
"Wow..he's so..dear God he's hot. And he can sing...but it's Draco Malfoy..I'm nuts I tell you..nuts!" she mummbled, getting up and throwing her clothes on her drawer.
She waltzed towards her bed, humming the song Draco had just sung so beautifully to her. She changed and happily crawled into bed. Suddenly she head a tap at her window and found Hedwig wiht a large parchment tighed to her leg. She sighed and opened the door letting the beautiful snowy owl into her room. She hooted beautifully and held out her leg, waiting for the letter to be untied.
"Argh, Harry what the fuck do you want?" she spat out. She unrolled the parchment and read it over and over again.
" Moine,
I have noticed that you've changed lately. You hvnt been speaking to us for a long time and Ron and Ginny and I are concerned. I figured you were mad at me and I just wanted to know if you still wanted to keep our little secret. I want to know why your so mad at me, I dont know what i did wrong Write back soon so i can sleep, I miss you.
Love, Harry"
Hermione gaped at the letter. *He doesn't know what he did wrong?!?!?*
"That conceided fool" she blurted outloud. Scribbling a few words (Busy studying for N.E.W.T's, talk about it later) she sent Hedwig on her way and decided to find Draco.
Knocking on his door didnt seem to work. He was dead asleep she thought.
*Maybe I can get in through from the bathroom*
Going back inside she pushed her door open and smiled. He left a slit in his door. She slowly peered through the crack finding him lying down on his four-post bed. She gasped when she caught sight of him. With his hands behind his head he slept in shorts and a dark green blanket with the words " Draco Malfoy" stitched at the bottom. She smiled sweetly and stared at him for awhile. When he was asleep, he seemed more innocent and more..different. She thought of his cold blue-grey eyes from her first year at Hogwarts. But her heart cringed when she flashed back, thinking of Harry. Shanking her mind she looked back at the sound-asleep Draco Malfoy. She remembered how dark and sad they looked when he told her about his scars. Then she flashed back to earlier that night and his beautiful voice. She remembered his eyes looked warm and full of love. She liked that Malfoy, not the Malfoy who called her names and spat at her whenever they saw eachother.
"Comming back for more?" he said interrupting her thoughts.
Herm blushed insanly and stuck her tongue at him.
He pushed himself up and leaned on his arm, " What's wrong?"
"I..felt lonely" she lied.
Draco got out of bed and gave a hand to Hermione. She took it greatfully and he led her onto his bed. She flinched a little as he placed an arm around her.
" Hermione i need to know something...i need to know..what do you think of me?" he sputtered.
Hermione felt her cheecks tint but she took a long breath and looked up at him. His face looked ergar..waiting for her reply. She smiled and kissed him. "Enough said Hem"
" How wonderful life is now Hermione's in my world" he whispered into her ear. Herm tightened Draco's grip around her middle and she leaned her head gingerly against his sholder.
"Did you write the song?"
"Sorta.."
"I never knew you wrote lyrics..or poetry"
"I can only write when I have modivation. Thats normally when I'm seriously depressed. Words come easier when your hurt and in pain" he said softly.
"Whats the deal with you and Potter?" Draco asked, breaking the silence.
Hermione didnt want to talk about Harry, she just wanted to be with Draco. She wanted the world to disappear except for them. She wanted to be in his arms forever. She never said anything for a while, finally drawing in a deep breath she smanaged to croak the words "Nothing..he's an asshole and nothing more"
Draco scooted down, resting his head against his pillow. Hermione readjusted herself and leaned against his arm.
"You do know we have to keep this secret. If anyone from Slytherin got wind of this, my insane father would probably go nuts. He doesnt like muggle-borns. So we have to carry on like before.
"Yah...I know, its okay. I trust you" she said placing her hand on his leg.
"Promise me Hermione, that everything will go back to normal. Dont let it slip that we're..."he paused and continued after gathering his thoughts" I know what my father will do...I dont want to lose you"Hermione nodded and held his had. His long pale fingers wrapped around hers.
They sat silent for a little while longer.
"Hermione..."Draco and looked down to see Hermione had drifted off in sweet slumber in his arms. Pulling his blanket over her, he followed her example and slept.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
hahaha! I mixed my favorite love story [Moulin Rouge] with my favorite couple, Draco and Hermione. It really isn't one of my best chapters, I hit writers block square in the face. If i get a few reviews, I'll be happy to get started on my next chapter.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

hahaha! I mixed my favorite love story [Moulin Rouge] with my favorite couple, Draco and Hermione. It really isn't one of my best chapters, I hit writers block square in the face. If i get a few reviews, I'll be happy to get started on my next chapter.
