"Draco," Hermione said in surprise, "What a surprise to see you here."
"Indeed it is Hermione," Draco replied.
"What brings you to Diagon Alley, Draco," she asked curiously.
"Nothing much I was just hoping to see some old friends here," he replied. "I've been coming almost every day for the past few months hoping to see someone from school. I mainly wanted to see you. I was hoping to get a chance to talk to you, that is, if you will give me the chance to say what is on my mind."
"Very well, as long as you can talk and walk at the same time," Hermione stated huffilly.
"I can, if that is what you want. Lets go. Where to," Malfoy asked her.
" It does not concern you where I am going. Just walk. Follow me."
They stsrted walking towards Madame Malkins robe shop.
"I wanted to ask you if you still loved me," Draco stated. "Do you, Hermione?"
"Do I what?"
"Still love me? All I need is a yes or a no. Please just tell me. I just want to know?"
"You know that was just a fling, I was trying to find myself. I did not mean anything serious. Me and Ron had split up, and I was trying to find out if I really wanted to be with him for the rest of my life! I'm sorry but I never did love you, I just didn't, I'm sorry, Draco," Hermione explained.
"That's it, I guess I have my answer then. Just know this, I love you Hermione, I always will," Draco told Hermione. "Goodbye, my beloved."
He then apparated to the Malfoy mansion, where he locked himself in his master suite, refusing to come out. He refused to eat, and denyed anyone entry. He was so deppressed that he could not see straight.
Hermione felt so bad about what she had told Draco by the time she got home that she went to the Malfoy mansion. Could she really be doing this? Could she really have feelings for Draco Malfoy? Was it possible? The house-elf told Draco that she was down stairs in the foyer, he was downstairs before she really had a chance to look around at her surroundings.
"Hermione," he asked, "What are you doing here?"
"I don't know exactly," she told him, "I just felt so bad after I told you those things, I had to come apologize. In truth, I think a part of me does have feelings for you."
