The comfort of Rain – Chapter 9
A New feeling
It was about a month later, and Draco and Hermione were together. Everyone knew it too, and they thought it was fairly interesting. They were inseparable; they spent almost every waking moment with each other. Everything seemed perfect, except that a couple nights earlier.
Draco was out on the grounds when he heard a fairly familiar "pop!" before he knew it, someone grabbed him from behind and there was another faint "pop!"
Suddenly he was in his father's office, and turned around to see Lucius standing next to him with a venomous look in his eyes.
"You have disobeyed me," he said icily.
Draco didn't have to say anything; he knew what his father was talking about.
"What the hell do you think you're doing with a mud blood?" he spat, "You know what I expect from you and you better meet those expectations!"
Draco mumbled something under his breath.
"What was that?" Lucius asked dangerously.
"I said fuck you!" Draco screamed.
"Crucio!" Lucius yelled.
Draco floated in mid-air screaming in pain.
"Why are you doing this?" Lucius screamed.
"Because I love her!" Draco screamed back.
It got very silent, and his father stared at him with his cold gray eyes. After a long pause Lucius said, "You better get rid of the girl, or I will, and you know I won't back down. I'll kill her. Now you wouldn't want that to happen to your precious muggle born."
Draco stared in hate.
"She's ruining your future Draco, and your future is getting the dark mark and following in my footsteps. The war is about to begin."
After that Draco was back on Hogwarts grounds, what would he do? He had to save Hermione. He loved her. He couldn't lose her; and had no idea how to confront her either.
"Fuck him," he thought, "This is our last year in school." Draco plopped on his bed and drifted off to sleep, he'd find a way to stop him.
The next day went mutual, but about a week later Hermione and Draco were in "The Three Broomsticks" sipping butter beer, along with Harry, Ron, and Ginny.
Hermione smiled warmly at the sight of her friends getting along with Draco.
"…and so I said "Eh, woman, get a hold of yourself!" The four of them roared in laughter.
"Hey Draco, this is nice, your not so bad after all," Harry said.
Draco nodded. They stayed there a bit more, talking about quidditch, and other sorts, until the couple had to patrol the halls.
The five of them walked up to Hogwarts castle and went in there dormitories, while Draco and Hermione set off together patrolling Hogwarts corridors. Hermione playfully punched his arm.
"That was fun," She stated.
"Yeah, it was," Draco replied.
Hermione kissed him on the cheek and ran off down the corridor into a room. Draco ran after her, and ended up in the room of requirement.
"Hermione?" he teased.
Hermione jumped out of the closet and toppled over Draco and kissed him. He kissed her back while she ran her hands through his silky golden locks.
"We're supposed to be on duty," Draco gasped.
"I know, I'm sick of everybody around us, conniving into our business." Hermione said.
She stayed in his arms feeling the rhythm of his heartbeat.
"I missed you," Draco whispered.
"What do you mean? Where have I been that you've missed me?"
"I don't know, maybe the moments just with each other and no one else."
"We should get back though," She said.
He nodded. They left the room of requirement and went to there dorm.
"Goodnight," She said and kissed him on the cheek.
"Night," He replied.
They walked to there separate rooms. She threw herself on her bed. Her heart ached because she wanted to be with him. Thoughts cascaded her mind. She was in love. She never wanted to be apart. The mere thought of not having him felt like someone ripping her heart out or telling her she couldn't breathe. As she thought of this, she found herself walking in his room and laying in his arms, as she drifted off to sleep. Sweet dreams rippled in her mind.
Draco pulled her closer and kissed her forehead. He also fell fast asleep; knowing that they were safe with each other.
