Draco went to school still distressed from what happened last night at
Hermione's house. Maybe he had been too hard on her? But then he realized
all the times he had made fun of her, called her names in the past. He was
the prince of darkness in Hogwarts and it just confused him even more to
think about what he had done to her. Maybe that's why she was afraid to
commit to him. Maybe her heart was afraid that he would do something
horrible to her.
"Mr. Malfoy excellent draft." His professor handed it to him. "Class, I am not asking you to be the next Bates, nor the next Shakespeare. I want to reach inside of your soul and I want you to write from your perspective in life. No writing is worthless if it is an original piece."
Draco looked at the clock, two more hours until the class would be dismissed. Draco knew that this was going to be a long day.
~*~*~*~
"Please hurry." Hermione urged her driver and personal bodyguard.
"We are here." He pulled over. Hermione was about to jump out when he locked the doors. "You don't have a cap, you don't have a jacket. I suggest that you wait until I let you out of the car."
"You attract more attention." She whined. "But this is a waste of time. Hurry!"
"All this for a guy." He laughed goodheartedly as he stepped out of the vehicle, allowing Hermione out.
"Come on!" She ran to the building of Draco's place.
"Whooh, missy." The boy at the front desk stopped her. She looked at him. "Hey aren't you?"
"Where can I find Draco Malfoy?" She asked almost automatically.
"Uhm," He looked at his files, he was panicking. "He should be in class right now. His key is here."
"Where can I find him."
"The building across from here. He should be having Interpretations right now." He looked at his watch.
"Thank you." Hermione jumped over the table to give him a kiss on the cheek.
"Room 105." He called out as Hermione ran. "Thanks." He whispered dazed from what had just happened.
Her bodyguard trailed her and people had started to notice.
"Oh my gosh, that's Hannah." One of the girls whispered.
"Hannah is running around Oxford!" One of the students yelled as Hermione brushed past him.
"105." Hermione whispered as she passed 104. "Here."
She opened the door causing everyone to look at her. "I, uhh."
"Bloody hell, it's Hannah!" One of the students said in shock.
"Draco Malfoy wouldn't be in this class would he?" Hermione bit her lip and moved her hand around casually.
"He just stepped out." The professor looked at her evenly. "Down the opposite corridor to the clinic."
"Thank you, sorry for disturbing you." Hermione rambled. "Stay in school!" She put her hands over her mouth. "Thanks anyway." She walked out and she spotted Draco. "Dra," She tried to call out but a bell rang and the students began to pour out.
"Fire awareness month." They started mumbling.
"Draco!" Hermione pushed her bodyguard aside and made her way through the crowd. "Draco!" She called once more as she got closer. His figured stop dead on his tracks and he slowly turned around. The students in the hall who were supposed to be exiting the building had stopped.
"Hermione?" His eyes shot up.
"Please," She panted as she got closer to him. "I think you know why I'm here. You won't believe what just happened to me. I'm a mess, I lost my bodyguard somewhere back there and I know that my management won't be happy but, I," She was so close to him now.
"Don't talk." He said as he put down his head. "They're looking."
"I need my best friend!" I exclaim and out my arms around him. "I am never ever going to fight with you again!" The students looked at them. "Can I apologize to my friend in private?" She laughs and looks at them.
"How do you feel about lunch?"
"Only if it's in the cafeteria here." She smiled smugly.
~*~*~*~
"Wow! This isn't a cafeteria!" Hermione gaped.
"Herm, this is where students have lunch. There are no cafeterias here, well I'm not aware of any."
"Hi Hannah." The students would say as they passed the two by with Hermione's bodyguard trailing behind them.
"Hi you guys." She'd smile.
Draco looked at her from across the table in awe. There was a crowd around them and Hermione's bodyguard looked stressed but Hermione was beaming. This is why she loved her job, so many people appreciated what she did.
"Hi," A little blonde girl approached their table bravely. "I'm Amy and I'm going to be as big as you one day."
"Hello Amy." Hermione smiled. "This is my friend Draco." She pointed to him as the people watched her. "You want to sing something for us? Or are you too shy?"
"I'll sing for you but can you give me an autograph?" She looked at her and Hermione nodded. She sang one of Hermione's songs which Draco had heard before.
"Wow, that's quite a set of pipes for a six-year-old." Hermione took her paper and pen and scribbled for quite awhile.
"Actually, I'm seven." She smiled and she glanced at the paper for a moment. "I can't read shorthand properly yet." She whispered honestly. "What does it say?"
"Dear Amy, don't break to many hearts growing up and I'll definitely be watching my back when you start to shine but I'll be too old by then. Maybe one day when you're a star you'll remember me, this girl who was once famous who you asked for an autograph. You're number one fan, Hannah."
"Thank you." She smiled and gave Hermione a kiss on the cheek. "You're my idol." She said suddenly becoming shy.
Hermione signed a few more autographs but later on the people knew that they had to respect her for a few moments and allow her to spend time with her friend.
"Wow." Draco looked at her in amazement.
"What?" Hermione tucked a strand of her hair behind her ear.
"You amaze me."
"Well, thank you." She nodded.
"I'm glad you came today." Draco whispered.
"Me too." Hermione looked down. "Draco are we a couple now?"
"Not unless you don't want us to be."
"Let's start from the very beginning." Hermione said.
"I could court you." He said.
"Really? You would do that?"
"Yeah." Draco smiled.
"Do you believe that you could go from heart-breakingly sad to being the happiest person in the world?" Hermione looked at him.
"Only if I'm with a girl named Hermione Granger." Draco smiled.
