" Now you've gotten me quite drenched…" Draco said handing Hermione a towel.
"Thanks," Hermione said taking the towel as she wrapped it around her bare body as well as patted her face dry.
"Darling…" Draco said "You know Harry and Cho's Wedding is this Sunday."
There was an awkward pause, as Hermione looked at her feet, which had a puddle of water around them.
" I can't say this to you Draco but-" she started to say
" What?" Draco replied in a whisper
" I don't want any feelings to arouse between Harry and I again…"
" You mean you still fancy him" Draco said in question
" No…no-I don't know…" Hermione leaned her head against the wall, " It brings back lost memories of-of our old friendship. You-you wouldn't understand." Hermione became a bit uncomfortable and started to charge out of the bathroom.
" I want to understand…" Draco stammered blocking the doorway. Hermione let out a heavy sigh and tried to push him out of the way.
" I'm not moving Hermione…" Draco said sternly as if talking to a small child
" Well I guess I'll have to move you-" Hermione said angrily as she tried to ram her elbow into his stomach; hoping it would make him budge. Instead Draco grabbed her by the sides a tad agitated and looked deep into her eyes.
" Hermione- I know there is something there between you and Harry – still- I know I may be the slightest bit skeptical about you two coming in contact with each other at this wedding…all because of Cho's slight mistake-but need to know from you that we are in this together…" Draco paused as Hermione began to speak:
"I---"
" Hermione-I---I don't want you to drift away from me…" Draco budged in.
"Oh-oh Draco…." Hermione's eyes started to tear as she clenched him against herself. " I will never leave you for anyone else…never ever…" she continued.
"Then-" Draco spoke
"Then just shut up and trust me…" Hermione laughed as she brought her lips to his and pinned him to the hallway wall. Her towel that lay around her slipped a tad, but she didn't care, for she was showing her affection to the man she loved.
