The Best of Me

Chapter 9

The music in the hall was a soothing, yet chilling techno beat. Hermione's body started to sway to the beat, almost automatically. Fred grabbed her hand, and onto the dance floor they went.

Dancing was one of Hermione's favorite things to do, she never told anyone about it, but she was actually pretty good.

She and Fred took over the floor, the crowd moved outwards, to give them some room. Hermione's body was all over the place, her hair moved like water behind her.

Fred locked his blue-green eyes with her chocolate brown ones, Hermione stared deeply into his eyes, but she couldn't find what she was looking for.

The song abruptly changed, it was a slower, more soothing beat, 'Listen to Your Heart,' by DHT. Hermione mouthed the words along with the song, realizing what the song meant to her.

Ginny Weasly glowered at Hermione and Fred, from across the great hall. "How dare she," Ginny murmured, "Bewitching my brother like that, what a slut."

"No, my dear sister, it is you, who are the slut."

Ginny froze and turned around slowly, "George!"

"I love you Ginny, you're my little sister," George started slowly not quite sure how to explain himself. "But, Hermione, she's my best friend, I can confide in her, and trust her not to spread it around the school," George emphasized the word trust.

"George, I would never betray you trust," Ginny said quickly without thinking.

"Oh, like you did with my little secret." Ginny's eyes widened, "I know you told Lavender, and Parvati, but they were too heartbroken to tell the school."

"I didn't tell them," Ginny started weakly, but they both knew it was hopeless, she had.

"And how did you find out I was gay anyways?"

Fred hugged Hermione close to him, as if he were afraid to let go. "Hermione," he breathed into her hair. "I need to tell you something."

"Fred, please, don't," Hermione broke away from him, and stared pleadingly into his eyes. He slowly nodded in consent, did she know what he was about to say?

Hermione slowly walked away, "I'll be right back," she whispered to him, "I promise."

And with that she was gone from his sight.

Hermione heaved a huge sigh; it was now, or never. She quietly walked on the stage, and whispered to the band, 'Wizards Blood,' they nodded and started up a new tune. Opening her mouth Hermione began to sing.

"Got introduced to you by a friend
you were cute and all that
Baby you set the trend, yes you did oh
the next thing I know we're down at the lake
we're sitting there you say you love me
What's that about?

You're moving too fast, I don't understand you
I'm not ready yet, baby I can't pretend
No I can't
The best I can do is tell you to talk to me
It's possible, eventual
Love will find a way
Love will find a way...

Don't say you love me
You don't even know me
If you really want me
Then give me some time
Don't go there baby
Not before I'm ready
Don't say your heart's in a hurry
It's not like we're gonna get married
Give me, give me some time

Here's how I play, here's where you stand
Here's what to prove to get any further than where it's been
I'll make it clear, not gonna tell you twice
Take it slow, you keep pushing me
You're pushing me away
Pushing me away...

Don't say you love me
You don't even know me
If you really want me
Then give me some time
give me some time
Don't go there baby
Not before I'm ready
Don't say your heart's in a hurry
It's not like we're gonna get married
Give me, give me, some time

Don't say you love me
You don't even know me baby

Baby don't say you love me,
You don't even know me
If you really want me than give me some time
Give me some time…

Don't say you love me
You don't even know me
If you really want me
Then give me some time
won't you give me some time
Don't go there baby
Not before I'm ready
Don't say your heart's in a hurry
It's not like we're gonna get married
Give me, give me, some time

Baby, don't say you love me
You don't even know me baby
If you really want me
Then give me some time
won't you give me some time
Don't go there baby
Not before I'm ready
Don't say your heart's in a hurry
It's not like we're gonna get married
Give me, give me, some time

Don't say you love me
You don't even know me
If you really want me
Then give me some time
Don't go there baby
Not before I'm ready."

(M2M's don't say you love me I don't own it with a couple slight changes)

The entire hall erupted in a thunderous applause, they had no idea anyone could sing like that.

Fred had locked eyes with Hermione's, he could tell what the song was about, but how had she found out? He stared deeply into Hermione's eyes and seen they glistened with tears.

She walked off the stage and straight towards him. When she reached him, Fred opened his mouth to say something, but Hermione beat him to it.

"Don't say it; I don't want to hear I'm sorry, but I have something to say. Don't say you love me, when you don't even know me."

With that said, Hermione kissed him, full on the lips.
