Happy Days
Finally they met again. Hermione and her dream lover. She fell asleep not hoping that he would be there, just wishing she could at least have a peaceful night. But as she was going to find out, most nights were never peaceful. Draco was thinking almost the same thing as he too drifted into slumber.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"Hello again stranger" Hermione joked smiling.
"Hello yourself" He teased back.
They drew together feeling they had spent years apart. They both whispered lovingly to each other, mostly about how they had missed each other. They just stood there embracing each other wishing to be no where else but right there in that space of time, knowing it would end when they woke up.
The spell that lay on the silence that came when they had finished talking together, lay there delicately not wishing to be broken but just wanting the peace to last. But as with all good things they must end. Even the silence.
"Hermione dear? Are you alright, you seem very quiet" He asked delicately wishing as if not wanting to be over heard.
"Yes, I am fine . . . I was just thinking about how much I used to hate you. But now that I haven't been with you for about week . . . I . . . I think . . . I love you" Hermione confessed, just wishing he would think the same to.
"Well . . ." He said slowly "what do you feel now and when you were not with me?" he asked.
"I . . . just feel so loved at the moment, by the way you hold me and the way I feel, like I have a balloon filled inside me . . . and I don't want it to burst. When I was away from you it felt weird . . . like I felt really lonely, and I just wanted to be with you." She finished and stood thoughtfully until his next words brought her down to earth.
"If you felt that way . . . and you told it truthfully then . . . that is how I feel so . . . I must love you to. With you I can be myself. No having to change to please other people. I fell so right here you know." He explained.
"Do you really fell that way about me? If so I am so happy." They shared a passionate kiss before going to their original state of embrace.
Hermione then began to shake as if some invisible person was pushing her. "Hey! What's going on? Why am I shaking? Why is everything disappearing?" Hermione screamed.
"Don't worry someone is just waking you up. See what they want then come back!" He gave her a kiss. Then all went black.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Hermione opened her eyes. Someone was standing over her. She looked up with frightened eyes until the person moved into the moonlight and she gave him a glare.
"Harry! What the hell are you doing here? It's . . . " She fumbled with her alarm clock "2:30 in the morning. This had better be good!" She whispered fiercely.
"I'm sorry Mione. I just had to see you. I just woke up and decided that I wanted to see you. Do you want to talk?" He asked hopefully.
"No! I don't want to talk at 2:30 in the morning! You just interrupted a really good dream! No go back to your room before I hex you for a) waking me up from a good dream and b) for trying to keep me up! Now leave me to get some sleep other wise you won't get your presents in four days time. I will just give you coal."
Hermione just turned over on her side leaving Harry to go out the room. How could he get in the room without waking up the other girls? It was a mystery to her. By the time she had turned over again Harry was gone. She sighed with relief that she could get back to sleep.
But she couldn't though! It was 3:00 now and she still wasn't asleep! She wanted to go to sleep. She needed to talk to him again. She was facing the window and was getting sleepy. But she was uncomfortable and her favourite side to lie on was to face the door. With another sigh she turned over to face the door. She was going off into slumber when she opened her eyes for a sleepy look over the room she saw someone standing in the doorway.
"OH! Harry if that's you again go away I'm trying to sleep and it is now 3:00! Go away." She whispered as loudly as she could.
But it wasn't Harry who came forward it was Ron! "Mione? I couldn't sleep and I wanted to talk to you" He said.
"What is it with you and Harry? You don't want to talk to me in school hours or even in the day time, but now that it is me trying to sleep you want to talk to me! Well no I don't want to talk to you. It can wait till morning when I am awake and not trying to sleep."
This time she sat up and grabbed her wand off her night stand and muttered a few words. The door opened and Ron got propelled out the room by and invisible force, while whispering " Ok you don't have to be grouchy" When he was passed the threshold the door closed and magically locked so that no one apart from the girls could get passed the door.
"How had both Harry and Ron managed to get up into her room when they couldn't get passed the stairs? They must have levitated up." She said sleepily.
No sooner than she was on the verge of sleep when a crash of thunder made her jump out of her dozing state. Urgh! She thought. Someone must really not want her to sleep. Then there came lightning and more thunder. She could never sleep in thunder storms. Well there was only one option: she must read. With another sigh (Which she seemed to be doing a lot of) She propped her pillows up and lay against them. Taking out her book: Northern Lights. She lit her wand and then began to read.
Several hours later she dozed off only to be woken up by her room mates moving around. Groaning she opened her eyes to see the last one of them going out of the door. She was alone in the room. She looked at her clock and saw that it was 9:00. She hadn't had much sleep and was still tired, she felt sad. She didn't see him again that night. So she went back to sleep hoping to see him again.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Draco awoke in the morning feeling as if he had been waiting for something. But it hadn't come. He was very confused because he couldn't remember what he waiting for. He had had the weirdest dream. He was standing around waiting for something to come, but it didn't. Like totally strange.
He shouldn't let dreams bother him because he didn't really believe in fate or anything. He was a person who needs to see things to believe them. He had to have solid evidence to believe in it otherwise to him it wasn't true. The thing that was bothering though was the fact that he still had the necklace. He didn't what to do with it. He had stuffed it in his draw as soon as he came in to his room and in a way he couldn't get that necklace off his mind.
He was just always at least once a day thinking of it and who he could give it to, but no name had come to his mind. He was still dwelling on the dream and the thought of waiting for something when he remembered that he had gone to bed thinking about how he hadn't received any post yet from his parents. Maybe that was what he was waiting for. Maybe that thought had slipped into his dreams somehow. It could be possible couldn't it?
He slowly got out of bed and made his way towards the bathroom. There were three bathrooms (Draco lives in the Heads dormitory but still has a room in Slytherin Dormitory's). One was connected to the common room and the other two were in the head boy and girl rooms. A he walked past the head girl's room he noticed that where the plaque was on the front it was going darker. Perhaps Dumbledore was finally coming to a decision.
Draco went into the bathroom but he left the door open. It was only him in the rooms so no one could see him. He could have his privacy. But something made him shiver as he went to take off his dressing gown. It was the feeling of being watched and he didn't like it. There was a picture of some boy in the portrait, and for some reason the picture didn't move. So slowly while casting a wary eye over the common room he shut the door.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
It was Christmas day and every one was in the hall for the grand feast. Every one was just getting started when Dumbledore stood up. Both Harry and Ron groaned because it meant that they couldn't eat and they would have to wait longer to fill up their stomachs.
"Everyone, I am sorry to interrupt you from starting this delicious feast, but I have a word or two to say. Well I would like you to all stay behind here once you have finished because the head girl will be announced as soon as we have finished. I will tell you why I have pushed this announcement forward once everyone has filled their stomachs. Well this all I wish to say. Tuck in!"
There were quite a few people who gave a hearty cheer at this announcement. And surprisingly Draco was one of them. He was getting into the Christmas spirit and enjoying it.
Finally like an hour later. Everyone had finished their meal and was quite happy to go and sleep. But Dumbledore still had to have his say, so people had stayed. Practically the whole school had stayed for Christmas which was unusual but then strange things did happen at Hogwarts. So finally Dumbledore stood up.
" Ladies and gentleman, boys and girls . . ." Dumbledore smiled letting the tension grow as he saw the various candidates looking up in anticipation. " this years head girl will be . . . Hermione Granger!"
There was a blast of applause and whistles from Hermione's fellow students as she got pushed gently from her seat by Harry and Ron. She stumbled slightly like Harry once did when his name got shouted out by Dumbledore when the goblet of fire spat out his name. When Hermione had finally reached Dumbledore he gave her a reassuring smile before giving her, her head girls badge.
If Hermione had cared to notice she would have seen that not all the smiles were friendly and that quite a few people weren't clapping. But she didn't notice because this was her moment and she was proud.
Finally when she had stood up there long enough she was allowed to step down out of the limelight, her face was kind of red and she was slightly embarrassed about her redness because she wasn't use to the attention.
They were allowed to go straight to bed after that but Hermione had to stay behind and wait for Dumbledore to tell her were her new common room was. She waved to Harry and Ron as they left the great hall to go to the Gryffindor Tower. She took a deep breath and let it out slowly as she waited for the last of the students leave the great hall.
Hermione let her mind slowly wonder, her thoughts gradually came round to him. She wondered if now that she was in a different room he would still see her in her dreams. She finally came out of her thoughts when she noticed Dumbledore standing right in front of her. She blushed slightly.
"Well Miss Granger, I can't show you you're new living quarters. Mister Malfoy will show them to you instead" And before she could say another word he smartly turned on his heel and left. Leaving her to stare at Malfoy, waiting for him to speak. Finally he broke the silence.
"Granger, follow me and keep up ok?" Malfoy turned away and started walking quickly out of the hall. He seemed have put the little fight behind him. She ran a little to catch up with him and walked by his side. There was little conversation as he whisked through the corridors and finally came to a halt outside a blank piece of wall. He then said "Bonding" He gave her a cold look and said " Dumbledore picked it" The wall opened to reveal her new living space.
A/N: Well that is it! I have finally finished it! I found my disk with my story on it and started on it immediately! I hope you like it and please review and constructive criticism, not flamers! Like someone called excuseme: I'll have you know that I think that it is good for an 14 year old so there. Anyway I will try to update soon.
