Chapter 13: Freedom
A/N:Disclaimer in first few chapters! VERY IMPORTANT NOTE AT BOTTOM OF CHAPTER! PLEASE READ!
As Hermione walked home to her apartment that night, she felt a sense of warmth spread through her body. She was finally happy. She realized, now, that being with Ron was difficult at the best of times. Prior to being in a relationship with him, he had been the fun-loving, kind of oblivious, stubborn guy that she had fallen in love with. That was the boy she met at Hogwarts. But, during their relationship, the warm-hearted young woman started noting changes in the red head's behavior. He started becoming distant, cranky and even became pushy with her about performing sexual intercourse, which Hermione firmly said no to. Still a virgin, she is saving herself for marriage with a man she loves. In return to his rather aggressive attitude, the young adult distanced herself from her lover, which prompted him to ask her if she loved him anymore. Hermione then realized that she bore the burden of the relantionship, aving to clean the flat when they moved in and telling Ron she loved him everyday so that he wouldn't be getting doubts towards their relantionship. Well, it looked like he was the one who was wandered off and stopped loving her in the end. Yes, she was heartbroken at the beginning but now she realized that she was free. She doesn't have to chose between her career and something else, like being a personal baby making machine. She was out of Ron's grasp and she was going to live her life the way she wanted to live it.
"You all right?" the blonde wizard on her right asked her.
"Yeah," she sighed, looping her arm through his and resting her head on his shoulder. "Just thinking,"
With all of her thinking, the brightest witch of her age didn't notice the hopeful glint that entered Draco's eyes as she looped her arm through his.
A/N: I know, I know! I am a terrible person for doing this and making this chapter so short but I am on a time limit here you guys! I have to be up at 5 am to get to the train station by 6:15 am. Can you see why I am in a rush?! A girl needs her beauty sleep! Anyways! VERY IMPORTANT NOTE! it would be wonderful if you guys could come up with a few boy names and leave a review with your suggestion. I am trying to come up with a name that doesn't already exist in the Harry Potter Universe. So, if you would be so kind? I'll write again at the weekend if you do! Toodles!
