Chapter 2 What to do?

The day after the "fight" started, after classes Hermione tried to talk to Draco.

"What are you going to spell me again." Draco obviously didn't want to talk to her.

"No, I gave my wand to Ginny." Hermione replied very passively.

"That's a relief, but I have one question: Why?"

"Didn't Ron explain it?" Her temper was flaring again. Recently she had been so quick to anger. So was Draco.

"Do your really think that after all this time I would want to hurt you like that?" Hermione tried to look him in the eye and see if he was lying, but she couldn't tell. But she would do anything to save her relationship with Draco.

"No." Hermione spoke, trying so hard to believe in her heart the word, but she couldn't.

"Well thank goodness for that much. I need to get back to my tower, Ok?" With a quick peck on the forehead he was gone, back with the Slytherins.

"Bloody Hell!"

'Why does it hurt this much to lie to him?' Hermione wanted to scream. She was still so angry. At Draco, and herself. They were acting like third years.

Hermione went searching for Ginny, maybe explaining it to her would help the guilt. She found her in the Griffyndor tower. She immediately sat down to catch up her best girl friend.

"Do you love him?"

"Yes Ginny, you know that, Would I care this much if I didn't love him?"

"I talked to Pansy."

Hermione stopped dead in her tracks.

"You what? What did that whore say? What happened? Wait do I want to know?"

"One question at a time please, Whoa. According to Pansy, whose word I value about as much as Snape's, he snooged her, but it was a game."

"A game? Now what do I do? I just told the git I believed him?"

"That is for your heart to decide." Ginny was always a hopeless romantic, and now that she was with Harry, It had gotten worse.

Hermione spent the next week confused. She would see Draco occasionally, and he would give her a quick peck on the cheek, like it was a chore that he had to do. Then he would disappear again. Meanwhile, Hermione had started spending more and more with her old friend, Oliver Wood. They would watch Griffyndor Quidditch practice, and Hermione would help with the notes that Madam Hooch required him to take. They would talk about the world outside of Hogwarts. Oliver talked of the "grown-up" wizarding world, and Hermione would tell him of the muggle world. They were always laughing together. He made a good distraction from all her relationship woes, but as they started getting closer, Hermione started getting scared.

"I like him." She declared one day to Ginny, Harry, and Ron while they were studying on the grounds. Hermione started pacing back and forth.

"We knew this already that is why you're dating the damn git, well sort of dating." Ron was impossible.

"Not Draco you dimwit, Oliver Wood."

"Bloody Hell, Hermione!" Ginny couldn't believe her years.

"But is name is...Wood..." Ron was giggling uncontrollably.

"Oh honestly Ron will you grow up. I have bigger problems than that. I love Draco, but I like Oliver." Hermione was pacing again, this time faster. "What the hell am I going to do?"

"I suggest you do nothing and let fate handle it."

"Ginny, look where fate hast taken me so far, so instead of using bloody metaphors and that symbolism crap give me real a answer!!!" Hermione was tired of being so lost.

Ginny just sat there with her mouth open, gapping at Hermione. Ron and Harry didn't know what to say either. Hermione turned on her heels and returned to the castle.

She was on her way back to her Head girl room, when she ran into Pansy. Quite literally. After nasty looks were exchanged Hermione continued on her way. She ran in to someone again as she wasn't paying attention to where she was going. This time it was Draco. Draco rubbed her cheek, making her face melt into his hand.

"Where are you headed, Hermy?"

"Nowhere in particular." Draco leaned in and kissed Hermione, numbing all the pain he caused.

Now Hermione was really confused. Was this kiss supposed to fix everything? Was she supposed to pretend nothing happened?
