Dancing in Confusion
Draco enjoyed the nice warm, relaxing shower. Hermione turned her shower off and reached for her towel. She rapped it around her tightly, so it would stay. She got out and walked over to the sink. She hadn't even noticed that the other shower was running. She muttered something and music started to play from out of no where. It was Michelle Branch: Goodbye to You. Hermione started to sing.
"Of all the things I've believed in
I just want to get it over with
Tears form behind my eyes
But I do not cry
counting the days that pass me by..."
Hermione started to dance a little while she sang to the song.
"...I've been searching deep down in my soul
Words that I'm hearing are starting to get old
It feels like I'm starting all over again
The last three years were just pretend
And I said..."
Hermione was now dancing around in circles, her towel still snug around her curved body.
"...Goodbye to you
Goodbye to everything that I knew
you were the one I loved
the one thing that I tried to hold on to
I still get lost in your eyes
And it seems that I can't live a day without you
Closing my eyes and you chase my thoughts away
To a place where I am blinded by the light
But it's not right
Goodbye to you
Goodbye to everything that I knew
You were the one I loved
The one thing that I tried to hold on to..."
Draco turned his shower off. He heard Hermione singing and noticed a shadowy figure moving back and forth, outside of his shower door. He opened it and saw Hermione dancing back and forth, while singing. He noticed what she was wearing and it made him smirk. He stepped out of the shower and grabbed his towel, wrapping it around his waist. He then leaned against the shower wall and crossed his arms, a smirk placed pleasingly on his face.Hermione didn't notice Draco standing there.
"...And it hurts to want everything and nothing at the same time
I want what's yours and I want what's mine
I want you
But I'm not giving in this time
Goodbye to you
Goodbye to everything that I knew
You were the one I loved
The one thing that I tried to hold on to
The one thing that I tried to hold on to..."
Draco's smirked turned into a dreamy smile. He stared longingly at Hermione as she sang and danced gracefully.
"...And when the stars fall
I will lie awake
you're my shooting star."
As the song came to an end, so did Hermione. She stopped dancing and noticed a smiling Draco. She blushed and looked at the floor. Draco then muttered something and music once again filled the room.
"Come away with me in the night
Come away with me
And I will write you a song..."
Draco reached out his hand. Hermione stared at it uncomfortably.
"...Come away with me on a bus
Come away where they can't tempt us
with their lies..."
"I don't have germs Granger." He said, his hand reaching out to hers.
Hermione took it shakily and Draco put his hands on her waist. As if on cue Hermione moved her arms around Draco's neck. Draco started moving slowly, back and forth. Hermione did the same.
"...I want to walk with you
On a cloudy day
In fields where the yellow grass grows knee-high
So won't you try to come..."
Out of nowhere, Hermione rested her head against Draco's chest. Surprised at this, Draco flinched, but he didn't move away. They kept dancing.
'What am I doing?' Draco asked himself (not aloud).
His thoughts were soon lost as quickly as they came. He was now unaware of anything else, just this person leaning on him and the sound of the soothing music.
"...Come away with me and we'll kiss
On a mountaintop
Come away with me
And I'll never stop loving you
And I want to wake up with the rain
Falling on a tin roof
While I'm safe there in your arms
So all I ask is for you
To come away with me in the night
Come away with me."
As the song ended, they pulled away from each other. Hermione in shock of the fact that she was touching Malfoy. Draco on the other hand just stared at her and smiled.
"You're a good dancer Granger." He smiled.
"You too Draco." Said Hermione.
"You just called me Draco." He stated, smiling wider.
"No I didn't!" Hermione retorted.
"Yes you did!"
"NO I didn't!"
"Yes you did!"
"No I didn't!"
"Yes you did Hermione."
"You just called me Hermione!"
"What, No I didn't!"
"Yes, You DID!"
"Did not."
"Did too!"
"Did not!"
"Did too!" She yelled.
"Did NOT!"
"What is your problem?"
Hermione got her things and bolted out of the bathroom and back to her room. Leaving Draco extremely confused. 'OK what just happened!'
He too got his things and went back to his room.
Hermione went to bed and so did Draco, both extremely confused.
Draco's POV
What was her problem? What was my problem? Why did I dance with Herm-Granger? She's a mudblood. I touched a moodblood!
But she's so beautiful when she dances....NO stop that Draco! She is a filthy... hot & sexy...NO shes a mudblood!
But she is so ...HOT!
NO! stop that!
You know you want her.
No ?I don't!
Do too!
Do not!
Do too!
DO NOT!
DO TOO!
STOP!
NO!
"OMG!(oh my god) I'm arguing with myself!"
UGH!
Hermione's POV
Why did he stare at me like that? Why did he ask me to dance?
"I need to stop thinking for once."
I went to bed after an hour of reading.
