Hello, if your reading this, then thanks for getting this far and not loosing interest! anyway, heres chapter 12.
Hermione flickered her eyes open. She rolled onto her side and smiled at the golden sunlight shining through the window. She truned and noticed her hand was sitting on something warm and soft. She sat up a bit and noticed her hand was sitting on someone else's, to extinction his.
She only had to take one look at the blonde haired boy who she had so stupidlu fallsn in love with and she snatched her hand away and scoffed before she shook him awake.
Draco opened his eyes to see an angry bushy haired girl with pretty golden chocolate brown eyes. "Morning." He said.
"Morning?!" She snapped, "Why am i here, what happened? I need to go take down those posters-" Hermiine had attempted to get up and hurry away but Draco stopped her. "The nurse said you had to stay here and all your in the hospital wing, you fainted and i ripped all of the posters down once i carried you here."
Hermione would've said thank you but he held a smirk that he expected her to leap forward and kiss him in thanks like Pansy probably does, so Hermione just simply said-
"Who stuck up the posters?"
Draco's grin fadded and he rubbed the back of his neck, "I dont.. know."
Hermione started brightly as if nothing happened, "Well im going to find out-"
Draco had again grabbed her by the waist and softly but quickly brought her back to the bed. "Would you stop that?"
"I told you the nurse said-"
Hermione seemed a little touched by his care for her but she refused, "No i dont care, and im perfectly fine!"
Hermione got up and was once again sat back onto the bed. "Malfoy-"
"Hermione, No!" He snapped. Hermione could see the anger rising in his eyes, "Why are you getting so angry, jesus."
She got up again but Draco grabbed her arm, "Hermione-"
She was standing mid step with him pulling her back, "No Malfoy, you've already caused enough trouble towards my social life and im trying to fix it-"
"Hermione you know i didnt mean for those posters to get up there-"
"I dont- I know that you- This isnt about that right now okay its about-"
"I told you im protective over you and for my sake can you please stay i dont want you to get-"
"STOP TRYING TO PROTECT ME, I CAN PROTECT MYSELF!" She yelled, "WHY DONT YOU GO BOTHER SOMEONE ELSE-"
"BECAUSE ITS THE LAST THING I HAVE LEFT TO DO!" Draco yelled.
Hermione stopped struggling and turned around to face him, "My reputation is gone too, all of it and my parents got arrested two weeks ago and got sent to azkaban all because my uncle set them up!"
She'd never seen him like this. So weak, so sad, showing his emotions, "Your all ive got left, and ive heard threats going around about you, Hermione. Your the only reason im still going. Go ahead, hate me for the rest of your life, just please let me make sure nothing bad happens to you. I love you."
Hermione took a step closer to him before tears stung her eyes as she remembered Pansy with her hair tie, pansy on the bus sitting next to him. She remembered Ron telling her that Draco and Pansy had been meeting at night.
She let a tear roll down her cheek, "You may love me but she got here first, Pansy, and you'll always love her." She almost broke into tears as he let go. She did it. She hurt him and now she felt like the worst person on earth. She heard the heavy doors of the hospital wing slam behind her. Then she wipped her eyes before she turned down the hallway.
XXXXXXX
Hermione walked through the corridors, glad that the posters were taken down, but that didnt stop the gossip and rumours.
"I heard they had sex in public!"
"Granger? The bookworm? Damn she dont look that bad-"
Hermione had to cover her ears. Then her phone buzzed.
She snatched it out of her pocket and pulled open her messages to find a video of herself and Draco in the hot tub sent to her. She looked up from her phone and caught a group of Ravenclaws standing by a phone sniggering while looking at her.
Hermione rolled her eyes and shoved the phone in her pocket.
XXXXX
It had meerily been a second she stepped through the fat lady portrait and she was rammed at by Ginny.
"Hermione did you see the video? Please tell me thats not you- This is terrible-"
Hermione sighed as Harry pulled Ginny back, "Give her a breath Ginny."
"It was an accident Ginny, i thought no one was outside-"
"Were you really doing it."
Hermione almost chocked, "No!" She sighed, "We were just kissing, theres a difference."
Cormac walked past them with a smirk on his face as he looked her up and down, "Doesnt look like kissing to me Granger."
Hermione screwed up her face. Ginny scoffed, "Ew."
Hermione laughed sarcasticly, "Trust me thats the nicest thing ive heard over all of the 'Can you do me like that Granger?' or the 'Me next please'"
Ginny almost threw up, "Thats disgusting." Harry added.
Hermione nodded. Harry scoffed as he was whispered in the ear by a fellow Qudditch player on their way. "Bloody hell, thats the third time this week that those bloody Slytherins have gone and convinced someone to over book us on the Qudditch pitch."
Hermione turned around, "The Slytherins have book the pitch?"
Harry nodded.
"This afternoon?" She asked. Harry nodded again with a confused look on his face. "What time?" She asked.
Harry shrugged, "I dont know, why?"
Harry gave her a look, "Are you going to see Malfoy? Hermione you know Ron doesnt like that-"
Hermione shrugged, "Ron's got detention this afternoon in Herbology." She glanced outside. "I have time before he gets back."
She looked from Harry to Ginny, "Besides its not like were dating."
Hermione watched both of their expressions change.
"What?" She snapped.
Ginny crossed her arms but didnt say anything.
Hermione laughed as she frowned, "What?"
Harry took a step forward. "It may or may not be that Ron was going to ask you out this afternoon after taking you for a walk to the lake.
Hermione blinked a few times. "Oh."
XXXXXXXX
She was walking slowly down to the Qudditch pitch. That was Ron's idea? Wait till he dumped me and then make a move? Nice going idiot.
She wondered out past the forest untill she stood beside one of the goalposts.
She saw the Slytherins passing the Quaffle around. Hermione then spotted a boy with blonde hair standing by the goal post opposite the pitch. He spotted her and ended his chat with Blaise.
She wondered past a few black haired boys dressed in green Qudditch uniforms on her way past. "Damn Granger, never knew you had it for Slytherins, wanna go out some time or-"
"Shut it!" Hermione yelled as she made her way across the feild. She saw Draco scoff. He heard the boy.
Hermione slowly made her way across the feild towards him, and he made it towards her.
The sun was setting slowly in the distance. The sky was filled with royal blue to purple, pink, orange, yellow and the golden sun sat upon the horizon.
Although it was dark she could still see him. Broom in hand, smirk on his face, blonde messy hair. Then they met in the middle.
Hermione's hands were sweating. She had a plan, a speech. But now she didnt even have the strength to reach into her pocket and pull it out. She'd also written him a letter. Or a note really.
"You dating Weasley?" He asked.
Hermione shook her head. "Actually if i wasnt here i would be at the lake being asked by him right now."
"Why did you go to the lake with him?" Draco knew what she was here for, he just wanted to hear her say it. It was pissing Hermione off. She frowned awkwardly. "I had to tell you something."
Draco waited for a few moments, maybe even minutes. She was returning the favour of making him say what she wanted to hear. "What do you want to say?"
Hermione took a step forward. A small one. Almost a shuffle. "I just wanted to say that..." she reached into her pocket but didnt pull it out. "That Ron and i arent dating. Thats what i really came here to tell you about." Hermione opened her mouth but shut it. "Good bye." She spun around but what he asked next stopped her.
"Whats that with my name on it?"
Hermione turned and noticed the letter was sticking out of her pocket. "Oh, its nothing.."
"I thought you had learned your lesson about letters." He smirked.
Hermione tilted her head. "Im going now anyway-"
"I know for a fact that you didnt come all the way over here just to say that and leave." Draco said. "You write speeches, stories, you read infront of people in all of our classes- Heck you even stand up to Snape, yet your so afraid to talk to me."
Hermione scoffed, "Im not afriad to talk to you-"
"Then simply tell me why your really here." He said crossing his arms watching her glare at him. He smirked. "Your enjoying this arent you?"
He nodded. "Its amusing."
"Your so annoying and aggravating and-"
"Then why did you come here to speak with me?" He smirked again.
Hermione opened her mouth but she had nothing to say. She turned around and ran her hands through her hair and clenched her teeth, "Why are you tourturing me like this?"
"No need to if you tell me why your here."
Hermione took a deep breath. "Fine, Not that it matters but uh.." She swallowed, "Ive enjoyed these past three to four months being you fake Girlfriend and ive always fantasized about having something like that. But then it sort of came real. Every moment, everyday felt like a dream. But then it hit me just like my fantasies, it was a dream. We were in a fake realationship. And what im trying to say is..."
Hermione glanced at the sunset. Then she frowned before she turned to leave but as she spun around something grabbed her arm and pulled her back. "But you wish it was real." He had said it so fast and then pulled her in as a hand went around her waist. And she kissed him and he kissed her back. Real kisses, they were really in love. She wrapped her arm around his neck and played with his hair at the back. She knew he loved that.
Then he pulled apart. He leant his forehead against hers. "You gonna go breaking my heart Granger."
Hermione shook her head before she leant in and kissed him.
