Three days after the incident with Ginny, she still wasn't speaking to me, and rarely said anything to Hermione for supporting us. It was really hard to keep my relationship from Harry, because he was starting to ask why Ginny was upset. It was also difficult to keep lying to Draco about my friends, and pretending to hate them when he was around. I really felt like I had a huge weight on my shoulders that I couldn't take off. And, to make things worse, my muggle friends were starting to ask me why I couldn't hang out with them as much. I felt horrible about all of these things, and I kept piling lie upon lie every day. But I didn't know how I could tell anyone the truth without them hating me, and since me being a witch was a secret, I would have to continue to lie to my muggle friends.
I decided to start by asking Hermione what I should do. I knew that I had to tell Draco about them, and I had to tell Harry and Ginny about Draco. But I didn't know how to go about doing that. That's why I needed help from Hermione.
"I really don't know what to do Mione…if I tell Draco that I've been lying about being muggle-born, and that I really am friends with you, Ron, Ginny, and Harry, then I'm afraid he'll break up with me. And if I tell Harry that I'm dating Draco, he might go after him. Oh help me! This is so hard! I mean, I love Draco, but my friends mean so much to me, and if I mess this up, then-"
"Whoa whoa whoa! Calm down Beth! You'll get through this. If Draco really loves you, then he'll understand why you were afraid of telling him about us because you really wanted him to like you. Then tell him that you got your confidence back when he showed you his Dark Mark. Ask him if he can be civil around us for your sake. And leave Harry to me. I don't want him exploding on you, because if you tell him, I know he will."
"Thanks so much Hermione! I'll tell him tomorrow."
THE NEXT DAY
"Draco, I need to tell you something. I didn't tell you at first because I was afraid that you wouldn't like me, but when you showed me your Dark Mark, I realized that if you really love someone, and they love you too, then it doesn't matter who you are, or who your friends are, because if the other person really loves you, then they won't care about those things. I learned that, and I hope that you understand whatI'm about to tell you,the same way I understood you. And I know that you'llcompletely hate me after this, but I feel like I need to-"
"Beth, I think I know what you're talking about. Let me just say, I always knew that you were muggle-born, and that you are friends with Harry, Hermione, Ron, and Ginny. I was just waiting for you to get the courage to tell me yourself. But don't you ever think that I would love you less because of your parents or friends. I love you for you, and nothing else."
"I love you too Draco. And I'm so glad that you understand me."
Ok, there wasn't really a point to this chapter; I just needed to write it so I can get on with the story. Plus, it shows a whole different side of Draco, one that we all know is in there somewhere
