Men Don't Change 5

Disclaimer- I own… NOTHING! Expect the plot… I just screw up the characters lives… that is my job! It is the meaning of life… the chickens told me!

Note-So I really have nothing to say… oh, the thoughts that are underlined are different from the thoughts that are NOT underlined! It is the type of thing where you have the two voices in your head… or whatever. And I also realized that some wording in the last chaper was messed up… sorry!

AsteriskTruly- I think you are the only one who doesn't mind the chapers being so short! And thank you!

And that Don and Hermione are going out! But not for long! Lol!

So –list of random objects, like violin and taco chair- READ

Chaper 5- Posion

Don came to Hermione's house to see what was going on… Hermione couldn't really face him and she didn't know why.

(A/N- ok, technically I'm just trying to get to the point of the story and I'm SUPER sorry you don't really get any details on anything… again SORRY!)

For the next two months, Hermione goes out on her tours and comes back for her Friday nights at Banana Joe's Bar and when she is there she always sees Draco.

'Maybe you should just quit with the grudge. Why? For crying out loud, it's… MALFOY! Yes, we kind of known that since you were eleven. No, shit! But do we need to recap on what he did? Bloody hell, women! Will you just drop the fucking damn grudge? It's not gonna kill you just to say 'hi' or even smile! Ok, chill!'

Hermione made her way to the bar counter to the blonde. She took a seat next to him and ordered Crystal Magic, her favorite drink. She paid and quietly sipped her drink. Her and Draco made eye contact and she slightly smiled, but didn't really think that he saw it, and he looked away.

'SAY SOMETHING!' she thought.

"I'm really sorry," she heard him mutter. "I don't really know what I was thinking. I regret it more everyday I live. Eight years, three months and twenty-one days… and I hate myself more and more," he continued. "You really had the perfect right to forget about me. You don't deserve to be treated like that. I'm happy that you found someone new… someone who is not me." He looked at her, "I'm so sorry."

Hermione felt like she was about to cry.

"You're right," Hermione spoke, "I don't deserve to be treated like that." Draco, sadly, looked back into his drink. "But you were also wrong. I never forgot about you. You were the best thing that had ever happen to me and I could NEVER forget you." He again looked up. She smiled at him.

Hermione never saw that Don was watching her every move.

'It's offical… I still have feelings for Draco, and there is not way to stop them.' She smiled to herself. 'But what about Don… you love him… don't you? Of course I do!' This whole thing is confusing!

She knocked on Don's house door. He answered and his smile faded when he saw Hermione.

"Hey sweetie," she said, kissing him.

"Hi," he mumbled.

"What's wrong?"

He hesitated.

"Who was that blonde guy you were talk in to? Were you flirting with him, cause it sure as hell looked like it!" he was on the verge of yelling.

"He was just an old school friend… that's all," she paused. "You saw us?" 'Oh shit!'

"Yea, I saw you," he said.

"Don, there is nothing going on with us! I don't wanna fight with you," she was on the verge of tears.

"Hermione, there are a lot of jerks out there… and I just don't wanna see you get hurt," he pulled her into a hug, "I just don't wanna see you hurt."

"Psst! Hermione!"

Hermione turned and at the end of the hallway was Draco, waving to her. She was at one of her concerts that just ended.

"What are you…" she started.

"Shh…" Draco said, "Come here."

Looking around to see if anyone was looking at her, she ran down the hallways with her guitar in her hand.

"What?" she said once she reached him.

"Hi," came his reply.

"That was it? You called me down here to say 'hi'?"

"And that you had a great show!" he smiled. "I have never missed a concert."

"I thought I've seen you at my other concerts."

"Yea, so what are you doing tomorrow?"

"Why?"

"Well, I thinking that… well, maybe we can hang out together…"

"Gee, Draco," she smiled in a teasing voice, "I don't really think I can. I still have a concert in Paris I really have to get to… plus I have an interview with the newspaper, along with a radio talk show I have to do…" Draco's face fell. "But I guess since I'm so booked, we could go out tonight?"

"Don't you have a boyfriend to get to?"

"What he doesn't know isn't gonna kill him."

"So you wanna go now?"

"Just let me change and then meet me by the front entrance in ten minutes," and then she took off to her room. She changed into more comfy clothes, set her guitar in the case and grabbed a pair of sunglasses so that no one would recognize her.

She found Draco's car easily… black and dark green. She hopped in the car and off they drove.

"You sure you're not gonna get in trouble with your producer or something?" Draco said.

"I'm sure," although she thought everyone working with her would be pretty pissed if they found out what she was up to.

"So, where to?" Draco asked.

"Anywhere, just as long as it is fun," Hermione laughed.

"There's a new night club that just opened," Draco suggested. "We could go there… or would you want to go someplace without the public?"

"I don't care, just as long as it will be fun," she repeated. "Don won't take me to places like that, so what do I go to lose?"

Draco pulled into the parking lot. Once they were inside the club, Hermione didn't noticed that she and Draco were walking to the dance floor hand-n-hand. Draco, however, noticed. He smirked to himself.

"What are you smirking at?" Hermione asked him.

"Nothing."

Several dances played and Hermione was having the time of her life. Then there was this thing being held on the stage at the front.

"Ladies and gentleman, we have a contestant, John Hunters," the guy said into a microphone. Everyone must of known what he was talking about cause everyone was hollering and clapping. "Now, Mr. Hunters, do you see a challenger anywhere?"

John went to the mic.

"Yes, I would like to challenge Hermione Granger!"

Everyone in the club gasped.

"Well, Miss. Granger, where are you?" the guy said. "Come on up here."

"Draco, what the hell am I gonna do?" she whispered to him

"Well, we could make a run for it, or you can do whatever the hell they are talking about," he said.

A spotlight came on Hermione and Draco.

"Miss. Granger?"

Hermione, taking a deep breath, marched up to the stage and looked at everyone below.

"Now what Miss. Granger and Mr. Hunters will do is empty their glass of beer as fast as they can. Winner has to sing any karaoke song while loser…" he paused. "While loser has to dance around the club… naked!"

There was cheering and hollering again.

"So, what will it be, Miss. Granger? Do you accept the challenge?"

Hermione looked at Draco for support. He smirked at the thought of Hermione dancing naked but wiped it off quickly and shrugged at her.

"Accept! Accept! Accept! Accept!" the crowd we chanting.

"I accept!" Hermione said. 'What the fuck am I doing?' she thought.

"Rules: the first person has to empty their glass the fastest! Here is a bucket if you feel like you are gonna throw up. But if you do, you lose! So contestants ready?" Hermione and John nodded. "Ready, set… GO!"

As John was chugging his beer, Hermione just dumped hers in the bucket. John practically chocked on his beer.

"What the hell! She can't do that!" he shouted.

"Actually… she can," the mic-guy said. "You see, I never said how to empty the glass. So you, Mr. Hunters, look like you are the loser! Any final words to Mr. Hunters, Miss. Granger?"

"Yea…" she stood up, "take it off!"

And again there was more cheering and whooping.

Hermione stood at the mic and sang…

(Alice- Poison)

She would steal glances from Draco every now and then.

After the song, Hermione wanted to go someplace for drinks. Draco took her to this really nice bar called Dreamy Moon and she had about 6 of her favorite drinks, which was the Crystal Magic, and it is pretty hard stuff. Draco decided that it was time for her to go back to her house, because she looked really drunk. For some reason, she was talking about chairs and tacos and just laughing out of the blue. Plus she couldn't stand up straight.

He had to carry her inside once they reached her house. Draco laid her on the couch and as just as he was about to walk out, Hermione spoke…

"Draco, I never stopped loving you… not once…"

"Mi, you can't do that to Don," Draco said back and walked out.

Hermione cried herself to sleep.

Ok… how was that? And it was one of my longer chapers too! Anyway… I'm trying my VERY hardest to get longer chapers and if you don't like them being so short, I'm SO sorry! So review and thank you!
