Chap21 - Share My Bed

Small chapter - sorry

Draco leaned up from his hospital bed and took Hermione's hand, he watched her cry softly and hated himself for hurting her this way, he knew he chose the wrong choice by cutting himself, but he was also thankful because he got to hear Hermione say she loved him.

"I promise Hermione" he lightly smiled.

Hermione smiled and wiped her eyes dry.

"What is it with you and tears?" he laughed.

She lightly smiled and shrugged. Draco scooted over and pulled the covers back, Hermione watched him.

"Come here" he said softly, indicating her to join him.

She lightly smiled as took off her red jacket and climbed into the bed and laid down next to Draco, who also laid down and wrapped his arm around her. Hermione felt happy again, she was laying in his arms again, just like what she always wanted, he leaned over and lightly kissed her cheek.

"Hermione" he said, waiting for her response.

"Yes?" she asked him as she closed her eyes.

"I'm really sorry about the night we broke up" he said sorrowfully.

Her eyes opened from his comment, she didn't want to think of Blaise forcing himself onto her, and she definitely didn't want to think about the Pansy situation.

"Please don't talk about it Draco" she begged him.

"I don't want to talk about it, I just want to make sure you know how sorry I am" he told her.

"I believe you" she said closing her eyes again.

"I love you Hermione" he told her softly.

She smiled at his comment.

"I love you too"

They both soon fell asleep together, with Draco's arm wrapped around her warm slender body. For the first time in a few weeks, Hermione fell asleep with a faint smile, with no tear streaks or throbbing headaches, she felt whole again.

In the morning, the two students were both disturbed by a woman clearing her throat, Hermione opened her eyes quickly as Draco didn't bother with them and tried to remain sleeping.

"Professor McGonagall" Hermione said worriedly as she climbed out of the bed.

"Can I ask why you are in Mr Malfoy's bed at this hour?" McGonagall asked with her hand held her wrist down near her stomach.

"Oh, I came to see if Draco felt any better and... I guess I fell asleep" Hermione replied awkwardly.

"You know the school rules do not allow students of different gender to share beds" McGonagall told Hermione with a strict voice.

"Yes professor" Hermione said with her head down.

"Return to you're dorm immediately" McGongagall instructed her.

Hermione nodded and walked out of the hospital wing, she looked over her shoulder to see Draco with his eyes closed, she looked away and left the hospital wing, and returned to the common room.
