He was taller now, by about 3 or 4 inches and his once long blonde hair was now short and spiked. He wasn't wearing robes but instead a pair of almost baggy jeans, a red long sleeved shirt, and a pair of sneakers. He looked almost rugged, and Hermoine thought why hadn't she ever liked him back,

Flashback

It was their fourth year at Hogwarts, and Hermoine had been sitting on a couch in the library. Usually she would have been on a date with Snape but they were on a 'break' so Hermione had nothing to do and decided to catch up on some homework due a month from then. Draco walked into the library and stood right in front of the couch and told her he had a crush on her. Hermoine thought it was a dare so she immediately dismissed the idea, but when he wouldn't go away, so she told him she had a boyfriend who would destroy him if he ever tried to pull a stunt like that again. Malfoy laughed leaned in closer and kissed her right on the mouth.

She never told anybody about that night, because she never liked him in return but seeing him in this way made him look like he could have been the one she walked down the aisle towards the night before.

"What were you saying granger?" he asked

"The names not Granger anymore it's Mrs. Snape."

"Its what?" If he had been drinking something it would have been on the floor and all over her and himself.

"You heard me I was married yesterday actually."

"But isn't that against the rules, I mean teacher/ student relationships are frowned upon, how did u two get married?"

"Well professor Mcgonagall actually performed the ceremony Snape tried to find you and invite you but he couldn't locate you."

"Well I was trying to find a way to destory voldemort and came extremely close but I tried killing him and nothing worked apparently only one person will ever be able to and that person is Harry."

"Well duh, that's obvious, but wait you don't know about the prophecy so maybe it isn't obvious."

"Well anyway, you know what kept me up all those dark and dreary night?"

"The thought that when I came back to hogwarts you would be there, didn't you say that when our seventh year came along we'd give each other a shot?"

"Yeh, that's because I thought you would have gotten yourself into a serious relationship by then and you would have forgotten about it. Listen Draco, I am married now, possibly to the love of my life, he was there for me when no one else was, and I love him with all my heart for it, he's the only one I see myself with, so I am sorry if I am disappointing you, but if you had come 5 months earlier you might have had a chance to win my heart but it's just to late, now I must be going." She turned around and was about to leave.

"Wait, I wasn't solely searching to kill voldemort I was planning something."

"What was that?"

"I was planning on how I was going to make you fall in love with me."

"What are you up to malfoy, I know you don't love me."

"Oh on the contrary I am very much in love with you. You know how when your little and a boy picks on you, and you told your parents and they said he was only doing it because he liked you, well Hermoine I never stopped loving you which was why I always picked on you, calling you mudblood, and now I am deeply sorry for all the hurt I put you through."

"Listen, I am MARRIED, ok but you seemed to have changed and I know this may sound out of the question, but if you promise me you won't try and kiss me we can try and be friends."

"Ok, I will try and do that, after all I at least I get to be close to you. Is it me or is there something different about you?"

"It's wedded bliss, it happens you know… when you get married."

"No I don't think that's it but whatever, so do you want to hang out?"

"Sure, I have to help Sevvie pack, but you can help I'm sure he'd love to see you after all it's been a few months. But first I have to go to herbology"

"Ok, I'd love to. Meet me here afterwards" With that they departed and met up later to go to Snape's dungeon.

A/N: ok ok… I couldn't help myself, Hermoine and Draco pairings are my addictions so I just thought I'd add it. Ok and Snape and Hermoine stay together. She isn't going to leave him for Draco… I think.

A/N: Thank you littlekittiecatfromhell I never would have known about that mistake. Oh and thewolfintheshadows I appreciate you're suggestions but I think I'm going to stick with my original stories.
