Draco & Hermione: a Romeo & Juliet story
Hey everybody!
Thanks for everyone who reviewed! I'm so sorry that I took so long to update, but I've been really busy, and I went to Cambodia for a week (which was great! Everybody should go to Cambodia to at least see Angkor Wat). So anyway, I hope you'll enjoy this chapter. I won't be updating that much, because I'm very busy right now, but I promise that I'll finish the story no matter what. Anyway, please review, and enjoy the chapter!

Chapter 6: I Love You
Hermione was staring dreamingly at the door, while her friends were still talking about the burial:
- Did you see how Malfoy's father was boasting that he was one of Skeeter's best friends?
- Ya… totally… said Ginny without enthusiasm. She wasn't really following the conversation… It was boring her to death.
- How come you're not talking as much as usual? asked Ron. What happened to you girls today? You look like you were in someplace else! And Hermione where were you when they buried Skeeter?
Hermione realized after a few seconds that he was talking to her…
- Huh? What? What did you say?
- See! said Ron to Harry.
- Ya, he's right…
- About what? asked Hermione totally lost.
- You're not following the conversation!
- Well, that's because it is BORING! replied Ginny. Can we change the conversation? It's been hours that we talked about this!
- WE? Only Harry and I have been talking! You were just nodding and sometimes saying a few words, and Hermione kept staring at the door the whole time!
- Ron… said Harry. Don't get so pissed off. Anyway, Hermy and Gin, where were you? We didn't see you when Skeeter was actually buried…
They looked at each other, surprise in their eyes. But Gin replied quickly:
- Hermy had a… technical problem.
- And what would that be? asked Ron, obviously clueless.
- Never mind… said Harry. Drop the subject.
- But what was it?
- I said drop the subject!
- I WANNA KNOW! DON'T YOU?
- I do know!
- So, you know and you won't TELL ME?
- Ron, calm down…
- I WON'T CALM down!
- Harry was looking very embarrassed… He whispered to the girls:
- Um… I think we better leave… We'll see you!
He winked at Ginny, and then headed for the door, dragging an enraged Ron along…
- Finally alone! Ginny sighed.
- What did the guys talk about?
- About what?
- About you not being there at the burial…
- You weren't there too!
- But what about you?
- Oooh… well…
Flashback:
Blaise was watching in horror and disgust his best friend kissing that know-it-all mudblood. How could he? Betrayer! Liar!
He heard a small chuckle near him…
Hay, what are YOU doing here? he asked.
I should ask you the same question, death eater! replied a red-headed girl.
You're going to pay for what you've just said!
Ginny was waiting for him with her wand in her hand hidden behind her. She thought he would fire a spell or something. Instead, he just stared at her up and down, thinking the same thing as Harry thought about her the night of the Masquerade Ball.
You know, you're kinda hottt…
How dare you!
She slammed Blaise in the face and left…
End of flashback…
Hermione was laughing so hard that her tummy hurt… She was kind of angry at Ginny for following her, but she couldn't help but laugh…
Meanwhile, in Malfoy's manor, Blaise was thinking back at what happened. He didn't know whether he should tell Draco what he had seen or just let it go… He knew that well he saw his best friend kissing that know-it-all mudblood, but maybe, just maybe it wasn't Draco… Maybe somebody else took the Polyjuice potion and transformed himself into Draco… But that's not possible…
Blaise couldn't accept the idea of Draco kissing Hermione…
Draco was lying on his king size bed… He was thinking back at that kiss… Smooth, gentle, but somehow powerful… The vain mudblood-hater of all time (lol) was in a strange state. He was feeling something he had never felt. At the beginning, it was just like a challenge for him. Gain the heart of the enemy and then crush it. Like he had done thousands of times with other girls. It was just a game. Just a fling, nothing more…
But there was something more this time. Something different, but pleasant. Indescribable…
Was she worth taking the risk of being dishonored if someone would find them together? Was she worth taking the risk at –maybe- the cost of his life? He asked himself, thinking of Potter and Weasley who would kill him without any hesitation if they'd ever found out. His mind and conscience were screaming 'NO!" in his head, but the light voice of his heart murmured a little 'yes'…
A week passed. Ron knew something was going on. He just knew it. Hermione who was always alert, attentive to everything was now always dreaming…Harry noticed that too.
Both of them were talking about that in Harry's room.
- Let's spy her! said Ron.
- WHAT?
- I said let's spy her!
- What's gotten into you? Come on. Don't be so low, man. She deserves to be down once in a while.
- Down? You call that being down? She's not herself anymore! I don't know what's happening to her, but I'm going to find out!
- It can't be that bad… It's ot like she's under a curse or something.
- What do you know? Maybe she id! After all, maybe you-know-who…
- Come on! That's ridiculous! interrupted Harry.
- You never know… Everything is possible.
- Ron. Be reasonable. We're her friends, so we trust her.
- That's exactly my point! We're her friends so we have to protect her!
- Ron, calm down. She's fine!
- Maybe not! And STOP commanding me! You're not my mum!
- But you have to respect her privacy!
- Whatever, dude. I'm leaving.
- FINE!
- FINE!
Ron left, leaving Harry stunned.
This is so stupid! He thought. I got to ask Ginny what is really going on with Hermione, and I have to warn her about Ron…
- Listen… said Draco.
Draco and Hermione were lying on the grass, in the forest near their city, watching the stars shining in the dark night.
- Yes?
- I know that we have kind of a weird relationship, thinking of the hatred between our two families, but…
He laced his fingers to hers.
- I… I love you.
She smiled and kissed him whispering:
- I love you too.
Behind the trees, a man smiled, seeing this eternal love.
So? What do you think? I'm so sorry that it is shorter than the other chapters, but I promise that the next one will be longer, and better! Oh, and I need your help: who do you think should marry Hermione and Draco? Dumbledore? I don't know… I need to find someone who will marry them. Please review! I'll try to update as soon as possible, but I'm really busy right now! But remember: the more you review, the faster I tend to update!
Toodles!
Sweet-linc
P.S: If you didn't get what Ginny was saying about "Hermione having a technical problem", the "technical" problem was that Hermione hadher menstruation. Harry got that, but Ron, as usual, was completely clueless,lol.
