We were practicing for the dance for the ball. He was actually tolerable during the week's practice- he didn't make any snide remarks at all. He was just focused on the dancing, and constantly giving me pointers on the way I danced. I didn't really listen though- after all, I am Hermione Granger.
The only advice I took from him was the eye contact with each other. While we were dancing, he said, "When we're dancing, we should keep eye contact. The dance will look even better."
I just shrugged and ignored it, mainly because I didn't want to stare into his eyes.
What, afraid he would find out how you feel?
Why, how do I feel?
You're in love.
What in bloody hell-
No, listen to me once, and listen closely. You are in love- have been ever since he started caring for you. You brushed it off as an ulterior motive, but you could see the sincerity in his eyes. You knew that his intentions used to be dishonorable, but now.. And now you're hurting because you know he's not going to look back, to come back to you. He's moved on when you've finally discovered your own feelings for him.
sigh..
Well?
It hurts..
I sigh, not even paying attention to the way I was dancing. Not that it mattered, he was an excellent dancer.
Just.. put on a brave face. This will all be over in 2 weeks.
Like they say..
The dance ended and I walked over to Ginny, who was watching the practice.
"How's practice?" she asked as soon as I sat down.
"It's tolerable," I said, sipping a bit of pumpkin juice.
Suddenly he came over, took the goblet out of my hand and finished it all off in a single swig.
That bastard.
"Partners first!" he said, smirking. I merely rolled my eyes.
The music to the bloody dance was starting up again, and I just huffed in exasperation.
"Good luck!" Ginny called as I ran to him.
I made it in time for us to start dancing.
This is my moment
This is my perfect moment with you
This is what God meant
This is my perfect moment with you
"Eye contact," he said sharply.
I rolled my eyes, then decided to piss him off by staring at him the whole time.
I wish I could freeze this space in time
The way I feel for you inside
This is my moment
This is my perfect moment with you
I'd been at it for the whole day, and it was only when we were dancing for the last time that day that I noticed that he was also staring.
Just eye contact, I thought.
Tell me you love me when you leave
You're more than a shadow, that's what I believe
You take me to places I never dreamed I'd see
Minute by minute you are the world to me
I wanted to believe it so bad, so I could get over him quickly.
But I realized- I hadn't gotten, haven't gotten and probably will not get tired of him. I could stare into his eyes forever.
I wish I could frame the look in your eyes
The way that I feel for you inside
This is my moment
This is my perfect moment with you
What hurt though was that I passed that chance up to another girl, whom I knew would love him so much he would love her back the same way, and forget about me.
And if tomorrow brings a lonely day
Here and now I know I haven't lived in vain
I'll cry my tears in the rain
and if love never comes again
I can always say I've been
to paradise skies in your eyes... in your eyes
I used every chance I could get to look away- just seeing him hurt me.
So tell me you love me the moment you leave
You're more than a shadow, I've just to believe
Towards the end of our dance, he muttered something.
I'm not sure to whom it was directed, but it went along the lines of..
"I wish (you/she were/was?) my partner.."
I wish I could keep you all of my life
The way that I feel for you inside
This is my moment
This is my perfect moment with you
This is my moment
This is my perfect moment
With you, with you..

I was in the Head's Common Room, working on my job applications when he strode in.
"You're not a Head," I told him as he walked over to me.
"The Head Boy has given me the authority to come to and leave this room whenever I please," he said with a hand raking through his dark hair. "Besides, it's not the first time you've seen me in here."
I didn't answer to that. I kept my head down and started filling out the Healer application for St. Mungo's.
"Graduation's coming up- what do you want as a gift?" he asked me.
Sighing, realizing he wouldn't let me work on my own in peace, I decided to humor him.
"I would like.. a CD," I said simply.
"A CD?" he asked curiously. I knew he knew what it was, since we had Muggle Studies together in our third year.
"Yes.. maybe an Evanescence CD-"
He cut me off.
"Ahh.. the Head Girl getting naughty ideas- porno huh?" he said, smirking.
I rolled my eyes, but smiled.
"Hi love!" Draco said as he burst in after a Quidditch game with his other friends, seeing that Gryffindor won the Cup.
Draco was there, so I was now able to work on my applications without him disturbing me.
Once again, I heard something.
Maybe I was going mental, but I just know I heard..
"She's my love too.."
