"Draco?" Hermione said in complete shock.
"Merry Christmas" Draco said shyly.
"What are you doing here?" Hermione asked.
"Can we talk?" Draco asked not answering Hermione's question.
"Yea….let me get my coat" Hermione said uncertainly and went up to her and Ginny's room and got her coat.
"Ok I'm ready" Hermione said awkwardly buttoning up her fleece coat.
"Alright" Draco said opening the door for her.
The sun had already gone down and the moon was full and shining brightly, it made the snow look like a million diamonds scattered all over the ground. It was so cold…even though Hermione had on a very thick, warm coat she was still shaking. But it wasn't all because of the cold….most of it was because she was nervous.
"So…" Hermione said once they had gotten away from the house and found a picnic table to sit at.
"I love you" Draco said quickly.
"What?" Hermione asked exasperatedly.
"Hermione….I know that no matter what I say or do I'll never be able to make up for what I did. I wish I could go back and change it but that's not possible" Draco explained.
"Well since you can't change it then…what are you going to do?" Hermione asked.
"Well…I'm going to do this" Draco said and pulled Hermione to him and kissed her on the lips, but Hermione pushed him away.
"What's wrong?" Draco asked.
"I just don't know Draco!" Hermione shouted standing up.
"You don't know what?" Draco asked quietly getting up and standing beside her.
"I just…." Her voice cracked and tears were pouring down her face "I don't know if I can trust you anymore" Hermione finished.
"Hermione" Draco raised his voice and got in front of her and grabbed her shoulders.
"No" she said trying not to look in his eyes.
"Hermione look at me, look at me!" he said forcing her eyes to meet his.
"What?" she said looking at him now.
"You are the one I want! You! Not Pansy, not some hooker off the street, not anybody but you! You are the one I want, you are the one I love….the one I want to love for the rest of my life" Draco said holding Hermione's face in his hands and wiping her tears away.
"Me?" Hermione asked.
"Yea…why do you sound so surprised?" Draco asked.
"I just…I never thought that anyone would feel that way about me" Hermione said shaking her head.
"How could they not? Hermione you're perfect, you're beautiful, you're smart, and you've got everything" Draco said wiping another tear from Hermione's cheek.
"You've been wiping tears from my eyes a lot lately" Hermione said giggling slightly.
"I'll always wipe tears from your cheeks Hermione….if you'll let me" Draco said.
Hermione grabbed the collar of Draco's shirt and pressed her lips against his. It felt so right to her and she realized how much she had really missed him.
When you come back down if you land on your feet I hope you find a way to make it back to me When you come around I'll be there for you Don't have to be alone with what you're going through You don't have to tell me what you're going through I won't be the one who let's go of you
"I think I'll let you" Hermione said pulling away.
"Good" Draco replied smiling for the first time in weeks.
"So how did you know how to get here?" Hermione asked.
"I had a little help from you're friends" Draco said nodding his head towards the window where Harry and all of the Weasley's were standing.
"I thought they were acting strange" Hermione said waving at them and when she did they all disappeared from the window.
"Do you want to go inside?" Draco asked.
"Yea" Hermione said and they walked in the house and sat by the fire talking.
That's all it was…talking. But it seemed to have so much more meaning, all the laughing they did…it just seemed so special and important to them. And that's how they spent the rest of their lives together.
