Denial
By Amber
"Come in, Hermione, he can't be that bad. Just give it a try, see how it turns out and if he does anything wrong he can say goodbye to those looks of his. "
"Harry!"
"I wouldn't do this normally, Hermione. But, seriously, think of what he did. Just give the guy a chance you know?"
"But he's a Malfoy."
"Oh come on, he's already gotten over that for you. Come on, Hermione if he keeps talking about you to me, I'd die of being squashed by all his words."
"But he's a Malfoy."
"Hermione, you can't keep yourself in this state if denial, it's really not healthy."
"Oh honestly, I'm not in a state of denial for god's sake."
"Oh, no? So you're completely normal when we start talking about him and you start to blush. You're completely normal when you scribble his name on the edges of your books and scratch them out awhile later. Come on Mione. You are in denial. Don't even bother to deny it."
Whack.
"Don't think hitting me is going to make much of a difference."
"Oh for the love of God. We're too different; we're like complete opposites for crying out loud!"
"Opposites attract, Mione. In case you didn't notice."
"Since when have you been so romantic?"
"Ginny."
"Should've known."
"Come on, Mione. Just give the guy a chance, ever since he's started to room with me he's already loved you. And that was one year ago! Just do both him and me a favor and go out with him for one day, if you like him then I'll know you'll be in good hands, and if you don't then you could just tell him. Please, Mione, I can't stand him asking me how you are every single day anymore. This isn't the guy we knew in Hogwarts anymore, he's desperate."
"He's a Malfoy, Harry! Desperate probably isn't a word to describe him at all!"
"You don't know him anymore, he's changed."
"And how much could he change?"
"A lot."
"Malfoy! What are you doing here!"
"Harry asked me to listen outside your door, then wait for the moment to come in."
"Damnit! I forgot about the silencing charm!"
"Well maybe it's a good thing you forgot about it this time, Mione."
"Harry Potter. When we're done with this you'd better start running."
"Gr- Hermione."
"What?"
"What he said, it's all true."
"But I-"
"Look, I understand that you might not even like me because of all those years in Hogwarts. But back then I was nothing but a spoiled brat who didn't know anything about reality."
"Wait…Stop. Has Harry told you anything about me? ……. Wait, where is Harry anyway?"
"He sneaked out when you weren't looking. And no, he hasn't told me a word about you expect that you were doing alright in the wizarding world, which doesn't say a lot."
"He sneaked – Ugrh, the idiot!"
"Hermione. Please, give me a chance to show you I've changed; give me a chance to show you that I can take care of you and show you that I'm not the uncaring, cold, idiotic bastard you knew back in Hogwarts."
"You forgot the mention egoistic."
"Hermione."
"Draco. I'm afraid all you just said was a complete waste of time."
"Please, Hermione, don't -"
"Shush."
"Please Hermio - "
"Draco, shut up."
"….."
"That's why it was a complete waste of time."
"Hermione, you love -"
"Let's just take this upstairs."
A/N: What do ya think? I was bored, I had time. I'm halfway though the other chapters for the other stories that I wrote. I thought I'd just post this first. Hope all their conversation didn't confuse you!
Tell me what ya think?
Love,
Amber
