Last Chapter:
Draco was standing all alone a short distance away from the rest of the class, who had not yet noticed him, presumably since they were so busy noticing Hermione. He had his head, which was still adorned with bunny ears, down and he looked so lonely that Hermione began walking towards him. She had almost reached him when he looked up and their eyes locked. They just stood there staring at each other for what seemed like an eternity, then for some reason past her comprehension, Hermione offered a shy smile. And for some reason past both of their comprehension, which seemed to be on holiday, Draco smiled back. A thrill went through both of them as the rest of the world faded into oblivion.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------
Hermione continued walking towards Draco, still smiling, still staring. She stopped about 2 feet in front of him. To rest of the class, who had one by one noticed the blue girl and the bunny boy, they looked like they had completely lost control of their minds, just standing there grinning at each other. Hermione really wasn't thinking at all, aside from the occasional 'Who is that boy? What is wrong with me? Where am I? Why is this world so much better with him in it? When am I going to regain control of my limbs? How can anyone be so captivating?', the only thing she heard was the Piano Concerto No. 1 1st Movement by Grieg which seemed to be playing over and over in her head. Draco's thoughts ran in pretty much the same stream. After the rest of the class had given up on the usual name-calling spree that occurred between the two, they began anticipating a passionate kiss and declaration of love. Pansy, still hanging off Blaise's arm, was whispering excitedly,
"Oh, I hope that Draco has fallen in true and forever love, don't you, Honey? Nobody deserves it quite as much as he does! It's so romantic!" And Blaise was trying not to snicker (we must remember that although he is very nice, he is still Slytherin) at the thought of just how 'romantic' it was that a boy wearing a set of bunny ears and a girl who was tinted a 'lovely shade of shimmering sky blue' fell in 'love at first sight' in front of a dilapidated shack and a dark, forbidden forest while a grisly half-giant, a crowd of 16 year old witches and wizards, and a couple dozen crates of Foograws looked on. And he was also wondering when the 'romantic' pair would remember who they were. Archenemies.
Harry and Ron were standing off to one side. Ron had a tiny smile spreading over his face as he thought about how incredibly embarrassed Hermione was going to be when she came around and realized what was happening, and Harry's jaw was hanging slack as he stared dumbfounded at the pair, wondering what he had missed. Lav and Pav were sighing and saying,
"I knew it was going to happen, I just knew." Neville was smirking; he really HAD seen this coming, because he quite excelled in divination these days. Seamus and Dean were chanting,
"Draco and Hermione, up in a tree, k-i-s-s-i-n-g" Crabbe and Goyle were chanting the exact same thing a short distance away. Hagrid was rolling his eyes and muttering,
"Hormones!" under his breath. Everybody else was either affronted by this inter-house interaction, or happy that there finally was some. In a large office far away, Professor Dumbledore's electric blue eyes twinkled as he laughed softly and said,
"Ah, young love." Altogether, the residents of Hogwarts reacted much better to this revelation, if one could call it that, much better than anyone could've ever anticipated. They were for the most part young, those who are young accept different things easily, and old hatred and prejudices do not run as deep in them as they do in their elders.
And so Hermione and Draco stared soulfully into each others eyes, smiling adoringly, and heard Grieg in their heads, and the rest of the world looked on with various reactions.
AN Sigh. Young Love. Listen, I know a bunch of you are going to write and say 'love doesn't happen like that' blah blah. Well, it isn't love. Not yet, at least. For now it's just fascination and… recognition? Wow, I never noticed her/him before…wow! All I have to say is, haven't you ever looked into someone's eyes and been totally captivated and unaware of the rest of the planet earth? If you haven't, I'm sure you will someday. This chapter is dedicated to my other half, Josef. Since I'm feeling so great, I think I'll have the next chapter up tonight.
