Deeper Side
Every time I pass you in the hallways you snicker at me. I can barely force myself to glare in return. The way your platinum blonde hair gracefully falls to shield your stormy gray eyes sends shivers down my spine. Harry and Ron see these shivers but merely think of shivers of disgust. They are completely and utterly wrong.
Oh how I wish to spill my secret to the whole world: I, Hermione Granger, am in love with Draco Malfoy! If only I could.
You see because of our past I cannot, no matter how much I want to. No matter how much… The many times you've called me that foul name, mudblood makes me want to break down in tears. For the first couple years I knew you I ran off and did so but after awhile I got used to it. It still stings, it still hurts me to the bottom of my soul but I've learned to see past that. I've learned to see past the worse in people and try to find the good.
For you, Draco Malfoy, I see you're proud. Although this is so, you care about those close to you save for one that is, Lucius Malfoy. From what I have found out through eavesdropping, sneaking into the records room and stealing your file and common sense is that you aren't that close with your father. This I put lightly.
I've come up with a thought. Is it that because of your father you act this way? You sneer and make fun of me and my friends. Is that why? I've I wasn't a… a muggle-born would you treat me differently? I guess I will never know my answer. I will always be mudblood Granger to you. Always and forever.
At this thought a tear slides down my cheek. I try to whip it away quickly before someone sees it. Too late. Ron spotted it and is now questioning me. I reply that it's nothing. I stare at the desk in front of me. I suddenly feel the need to look at you. I don't want to, it will only cause more pain on my end. However much I try my instinct takes control and I look up at you.
You look the same as you always do, nearly perfect. I stare at you for sometime. Then, unexpectedly, you glance my way. Probably from sensing my eyes scanning your muscular body.
Our eyes meet and I freeze. I don't know what I see because it isn't clear, but I think I saw a hint of kindness. Of this I highly doubt I saw, for in a blink of your eye it's gone and a cold glare replaced it. No sneering I note. You look away quickly, leaving me to question myself.
In the end I come up with the thought of this,
There is a deeper side to everyone.
