Chapter 6 Admitting Feelings

Hermione had to get the file out of her sight so she went in the kitchen and made some tea, one of the few things she could manage with burning anything. She sat at her kitchen table sipping the tea letting her mind wander over some old memories.

She saw Malfoy's sneer but she also saw his rare smile. She had never been able to push him out of her mind, he had always been in the midst of her thoughts. She couldn't deny her feeling for him any more. She had or rather she has a thing for Draco Malfoy. But when your crush is your best friend's nemesis things don't exactly work out.

Every time she had secretly thought about him it brought a smile to her face. When she felt down it was thinking of him that had put her back into high spirits. She thought of him every night before she went to sleep and he was the first thing to come to mind when she woke up.

Hermione never knew exactly when she had begun seeing Draco in this way. It was just that one morning she woke up and all that she could think of was him. She looked forward to the classes she had with him and she looked forward to catching glimpses of him between classes.

Hermione poured what was left of her tea down the drain and put her cup in the sink. She went down the hall to the bathroom. She knew the only way to get him out of her head was a cold shower. Before she could get any thing done after she had seen him was to take an ice cold shower even if it was the middle of December.

The cold water was like ice hitting her skin. She felt numb within a moment just like she knew she would. She just stood there in her shower letting the ice cold water freeze her skin. She turned the water off after five minutes because she couldn't feel anything by now, her inter body was numb, mainly her heart.

She dried off and pulled on her clothes. She wore a pair of old baggy jeans and a black tank top. She brushed her hair, leaving it down and only half dry.

Hermione felt better as she went into her study and picked up a book she had been reading. Though this time she just couldn't concentrate on the book.

"Damn you, Draco, why do you have to be so hard to get out of mind or rather my heart. I admit it, okay, I don't have a crush, I love you, Draco Malfoy!" Hermione was yelling to the empty room as tears fell down her face.

A/N: Wow another chapter down! Poor Hermione, though, she's love sick!
