Kissing a Green and Silver Serpent: Chapter XIII
The ball (Part III)
The song ended, but the moment continued and although the song that followed was much rapid he didn't let go of her, moreover she wasn't complaining. They just stood there by the lake looking into each others eyes for how knows how long. Suddenly a stroke sounded inside the castle making both of the jump.
Hermione checked her watched, midnight had arrived and that could only mean one thing... And sure enough after the twelfth stroke Dumbledore's vanishing spell sounded clearly even on the grounds... the masks were gone
Hermione, who had closed her eyes at the sound of the second stroke did not dare to open them now, and Draco was thankful for every second he could spend next to he before she freaked out; but as she continue to have her eyes shut he ceased his chance, leaned forward and brushed her lips with his. She didn't protest or moved so he prolonged his kiss, first tenderly and then more passionately. Both of them felt in heaven, the kiss was the final clue they needed to realize that they were meant for each other.
"Wow, I have another positive characteristic to add to the already long list, he's a great kisser... even better than Ron who is very good (although I would never say this aloud)... I think the time has come to meet my Secret Admirer" She thought as they broke apart.
But the moment she had opened her eyes, she regretted; until a second before everything in her life was perfect but now she knew the truth...
"YOU?!...How...What... Oh I should have known, it was all a bet right? Where are your cronies? Call them, let them now you won" She had now idea what to do now. She hadn't forgot all the feelings she had been having towards him, specially what she had felt that very night, but when she saw in front of her the face that belonged to the person who had taunted her for the last six years... She was not going to let him play with her emotions any longer.
"Mione, no! Wait... Let's talk!"
"Oh, you didn't win yet... No, perhaps your goal was take me to bed...That's why you've been acting so kindly, isn't it? So I would accept your 'honest and heartily' invitation... Well, I'm sorry I have ruined your plans." She stormed at him, tears running down her face, she wasn't even sure if they were tears of anger or sadness, the only thing she knew was that she wanted to turn into a rock and never feel again.
"It's not like that." Draco said frantically "I love you... I really do." But she was walking away from him "And I know you love me too... I felt it in you voice, I felt it in my heart, I felt it in your kiss" And in a desperate attempt to make her understood that his feelings were sincere he run after her, grabbed her by the shoulders, turned her round and kissed her fully on the lips. She tried to free herself from his tight embrace but as she felt his mouth kissing hers, her emotions took control of her mind and she kissed him back, realizing all the love her heart enclosed.
"Do you believe me now?" Asked Draco when the kiss was over.
"I don't know... I mean, how can I? After all you have done to us" Hermione was crying furiously, Draco's heart sunk: "us" she couldn't stop thinking about Potter and Weasley even in a moment like this one, he would never be able to compete with them. But he was not going to give up on her, even if he had to share her love with those two idiots.
"But I have changed what I feel for you made me change... Listen I've been horrible too everyone who is not a Slytherin because that was how I was brought up, that is how a Malfoy is supposed to be... but you showed me that there are other ways, that there are things so relevant that they can make us change our ideals in an instant... You are one of those things 'Mione, I want to be a better person because of you"
Hermione didn't know what to say, she wasn't even sure she believed Draco but all her instincts urging her to trust him, only her mind had doubts. Draco needed to do something to convince her, he seized her face and looked her straight in the eyes; they moment his made contact with hers a strong voice inside Hermione shouted YES! And she believed him. This time it was her who leaned forward and kiss him sealing a wordless pact of eternal love (A/N Ok, even I know it's twee but its fits!)

"I think it's time we go inside" Said Draco a couple of minutes later.
"Yeah, if anybody finds us here, we'll be in trouble" with that they headed towards the castle.
"Talking about trouble, you d know this is not going to be easy... I mean all our friends will object to our relationship, not to mention my family"
"Yes, I had already though about that, but if our love is strong enough to make you change and me believe you, then I think will be able to face whatever comes" Draco smiled broadly at these words.
"Did I ever tell you that I love you" She nodded. "Well if you are ready to face anything, so am I" with that he kissed her goodnight, they had arrived to the empty Entrance Hall and he had to go downstairs to his Common Room.
Hermione had no memory of walking to the portrait of the fat lady, her thoughts were still on Draco Malfoy.
"Well, I never ever before now thought this could happen" She said allowed.
"Mmm, sorry dear, wrong password"
"Wha? Oh sorry, Toreus" She said to the picture.
"That's better" Answered the fat lady as she sprang forward to let her enter.
"'Mione! What kept you?"
"There you are"
"I was worried"
The shouts of her three best friends received her at the Common Room
"Calm down you three... I am perfectly fine, I was just saying good bye to my date."
"Which was...? Who?... Oh no, wait. Let's do things right" Said Ron who was clearly were exited "We have lots of things to talk about, should I get us butter beers, this is going to be a long conversation!"
"Actually" Said Hermione in an apologetic tone "I am exhausted... tomorrow we'll have the whole afternoon for ourselves to talk about everything that happened at the ball, deal?"
"Ok" Everyone agreed, although Ron did seam a little disappointed to have to wait until the next day to talk to his friends.
Once in her room Hermione sighted, she wasn't tired at all and she knew ages would pass before she dozed off, she just didn't want to ruin the best night of her life telling her best friends about her new boyfriend...
TO BE CONTINUE
A/N: So, as I had promised I finished the ball part... but if you thought that was going to be the end of this fic, think again... They still have to face their friends and relatives, will their love survive? You'll have to wait to know, but to kill some time, why don't you review???
