Mixed up Love

Chapter 8

The Dream

Hermione could see something in the distant it looked like a person hovering she walked up to the person, and saw that it was Draco. "Malfoy what's wrong?" Hermione shouted. He didn't answer just looked around to her, his eyes weren't silver blue anymore, but the were covered over in a black coat. She stepped back and looked at him.

"Help me…Hermione!…Help me!" The sound of his voice made her shiver he sounded like he was far away and was hurt badly, but he was right there in-front of her just floating. His face turned soft but only for a moment, then another voice came out of nowhere.

"You do as I tell you now, kill the Mudblood now! Do it!" The voice hollered. Hermione tried looking around but couldn't she was to afraid of Draco and what he might do,

"Hermione…Run!" His voice sounded desperate, and she didn't know what else to do a part of her wanted to run away far far away and another part wanted to stop him. She looked up and watched Draco, he face squinted and she could tell he was trying to hold back. The next thing she knew a blast of fire came from no where she screamed and reached for her wand.

"Nooo…Herrrrmioneeeee!"

Hermione sat awake and starred at the moon, it was just disappearing cause the sun was just getting over the hill. She felt her forehead and whipped off the sweat. She was scared to death, she didn't know what to do or say when it came to that dream. She was so scared she didn't even want to move, and then her alarm went off. She looked at it and squinted her eyes.

"Why can't I just have ten minutes to think!" She yelled at it, before it went flying across the room. She jumped and starred at it then saying it was nothing went and got ready for the day, thank god it was Friday.

In the other room, Draco was just waking up. He was up all night reading the papers, not one told him anything he wanted to know, just all riddles and to his mind a headache.

"I don't know how to prove it to her that I love her and not just because of some letter!" He stood up and went to go take a shower, but then again what if she was right? No he would prove it to her, even if something as much as a paper said it wasn't real, he'll make it real, he knew he felt something for her, something he hasn't felt before, only when he was around her. He knew what to do, he would invite her to the dance.

"Thank god it's Friday," He said before he stepped into the tub.

Just as he was about to leave the dorm he saw Hermione walking down stairs with the egg in hand, He ran over to her and took the egg from her. She stopped and just looked at him.

"Any sign of hatching yet?" Draco asked.

"No, it moves, but one minute it will move a lot then next it stops then it's hours before it moves again," Hermione explained.

"Great," He took her bag then passed her the egg.

"Malfoy give me back my bag,"

"Listen I'm not about to have you screw up our assignment by tripping over yourself and hurting the egg," Now let's get to class," Draco said. Hermione smiled and Draco smirked.

"Why are you doing this?" Hermione asked.

"Cause I want too, and I also want to take you to the dance, come with me, be my date," Draco asked.

"I can't, people would talk," Hermione said.

"So let them talk, I don't care what anyone else says, Everyday I get offers to leave you and go with some other girl, but I don't want too, I want to be with you, so let me prove it to you by taking you to the dance," Draco did a puppy face and Hermione smiled.

"I just don't know," Hermione said.

"Listen you said you don't believe me that I care for you, so let me take you to a dance where everyone can see us,"

"That's the thing though we have to dress up, hiding your face is the idea of the dance," Hermione said. "So technically, no one will see," Hermione started to walk off again.

"I don't get it, if this prophesy is for real, why is it only me that falls in love with you and you not me? Answer me that," Draco said.

"I don't know, there is still more things I have to read about it, but like I said it could be me and you or it might not be,",
"So in the mean time let me try to prove it to you, let me take you," Hermione just put her head down and started to walk to off, But Draco couldn't take it anymore. He walked over to her turned her around and pushed her against the wall gently as to not to hurt her or the egg.

"Fine you want me to go back to the way I was before I will, I'm a Malfoy and a Malfoy always get they want, and I want to take you to the dance, so weather you like it or not you're going with me," He said this close to her almost like a death whisper. Hermione just went up to his face.

"You know for some one who cares about me, you have a funny way of showing it," At this Draco just threw his hands up in frustration.

"Well what else can I do? All I want to do is take you to the dance and have a good time with you, if you claim that I don't like you, then allow me to get to know you, I know I feel something for you and all I'm asking is for you to forget the past years and give me a new starting chance!" Draco yelled. Hermione looked at him with tears in her eyes. Then she went and grabbed her back pack,

"Fine, I'll give you a chance but if this is just all made up and you're really tricking me, you'll be sorry," And with that she walked out of the dorm.

Draco watched her leave then ran after her, he stopped at the door for he didn't have his bag.
"Does this mean you'll come to the dance with me?" Draco hollered.

"I'll be ready at seven thirty!" She hollered back not turning around. A smile formed on Draco's face, now he couldn't wait for the rest of the day, and first up was his care of Magical creatures class, with Hermione.

"Righty then, everyone got 'yer egg?" Asked Hagrid. Hermione was standing by Draco holding her egg. Hagrid walked around, and stopped at Harry and Ron.

"Well yours looks like he'll hatch any day," Hagrid said, taking the egg to examine it.

"So are you sure you're going to be ready at seven thirty, if you make me wait, you'll pay," Draco said, jokingly. Hermione smiled and hit him playfully on the arm. Then her arm started to shake; she quickly placed both hands on the egg, and Draco and Hermione called out to Hargid.

"Uhhh Hagrid, it's moving, ours is moving, like mad!" Hermione said.

"Quickly place it down on the grass bed in front of you," Hargid said. Hermione went down to her knees and carefully put the egg down in it's bed. Everyone gathered around, but Hargid stopped them, "Stand back yeh hear, it needs space if it's gonna hatch.

"Draco it's going to hatch, it's going to hatch!" Hermione said. She hugged him and Draco hugged her back. Then the egg started to crack. Hermione was so excited she could have killed any one who tried to come into the little guy's area in fear they might scare it away. A beak popped out and soon the whole body came out. He opened his eyes and looked at Hermione and Draco and yawned.

"Now looky here he's hungry," Hargid said, pulling out some worms from inside his pocket.

"Hargid, don't give him those, they were in your pocket," Hermione said, grabbing the little Hippogriff.

"Don't be silly, it was in a bucket, I do have big pockets." Hagrid explained. He gave it to Draco who looked at it with degust then passed to the little Hippogriff, who ate it with no complaints.
