AN: I don't own Harry Potter or the lyrics – those belong to JKRowling and Taylor Swift respectively. I started this over a year ago and well I never got round to finishing it but here it is, at long last...
You Belong With Me :
You're on the phone with your girlfriend, She's upset
She's going off about something that you said
She doesnt get your humour like I do
Hermione's POV:
I sit curled up on the sofa reading Potions and Properties Advance Level 4, I look up to your room. I see you bent down in front of the fire. I sigh, you seem pretty pissed off, and no doubt you're talking to Pansy. I really don't understand how you can stand her. I think back to earlier that day when played the prank on Slughorn.
Flashback
"Hey Pansy" he called out to her. I sat in my seat opposite him and listened.
"Yes Drakey" she replied.
"Watch this" Draco sent a curse in the direction of the Professor, turning his hair pink and green. All the Slytherins, minus Pansy burst out laughing. I tried to stop myself from giggling.
Pansy just sat there.
End flashback
I head upstairs smiling at the memory.
I'm in the room, its a typical Tuesday night
I'm listening to the kind of music she doesnt like
And she'll never know your story like I do
I find my IPod and slot it into my speakers and let Eminem: Lose Yourself play out. I sing along
Look, if you had one shot, one opportunity
To seize everything you ever wanted, one moment
Would you capture it, or just let it slip? Yo
(AN: Sorry about the Eminem lyrics, I think its apt for my story)
I think back to the conversation we had last night
Flashback
"Hermione, promise me you won't tell anyone what I'm about to tell you?" You asked me
"I promise Draco" I replied
"Ok, I don't know how to say this or if you'll believe me but this is so hard, everything is so hard." You told me.
End flashback
I smile so happy that you trusted me with your secret.
But she wears short skirts, I wear t-shirts
She's cheer captain and I'm on the bleachers
Dreaming bout the day when you'll wake up and find
That what you're lookin for has been here the whole time
I woke up the following morning from a lovely dream. Me and Draco were together. I smiled and prayed that it would come true. I open my wardrobe door and imagine what Pansy's is like probably full of miniskirts and boob tubes. Mine however is full of T-shirts and jeans.
If you could see that I'm the one who understands you
Been here all along so why can't you see?
You belong with me
You belong with me
I watch you messing around with your fellow Slytherins Blaise, Theo, Crabbe and Goyle. I laugh as you push Blaise in the lake. I swear that you look up to the Astronomy Tower, in my direction and smile it me but I'm dreaming, you've probably just seen Pansy. I wish you could see how happy we would be together.
Walkin the streets with you in your worn out jeans
I cant help thinking this is how it ought to be
Laughing on the park bench thinkin to myself
Hey isnt this easy?
As we walk down to the Hogsmede, joking about the way we used to be and how now we're friends, laughing at the memories.
Suddenly Pansy appears and walks over to us, she smiles a fake smile at me, taking your hand leading you away. You turn around and wave back at me.
And you've got a smile that could light up this whole town
I havent seen it in awhile, since she brought you down
You say you find I know you better than that
Hey, Whatcha doing with a girl like that?
As you walk off I think back till when you first started dating Pansy and well before that, you used to smile so much. You haven't smiled at all in the last few months, being with Pansy has made you lose that smile, the one that lights up the whole of Hogwarts.
She wears high heels, I wear sneakers
She's cheer captain and I'm on the bleachers
Dreaming bout the day when you'll wake up and find
That what you're looking for has been here the whole time
I look at my feet, tatty old sneakers, they're comfy and nothing special, Pansy's wearing black high heels, making her about an inch taller than you. I sigh deeply, wishing you would realise that I'm the one for you.
If you could see that I'm the one who understands you
Been here all along so why can't you see?
You belong with me
Standin by, waiting at your back door
All this time how could you not know that?
You belong with me
You belong with me
I lean against the wall in our common room, being head's sure has its advantages. I'm waiting for you to come down and help me plan the ball and more importantly to realise that all this time you belong with me.
Oh I remember you driving to my house in the middle of the night
I'm the one who makes you laugh when you know you're about to cry
I know your favorite songs and you tell me about your dreams
I think I know where you belong. I think I know it's with me.
I remember over Christmas you flew over to my house on your new broom, through a snow storm after an argument with your father, I told you muggle jokes and we watched cartoons, I did impressions of teachers. I managed to make you laugh, even though you were about to cry. We listened to Eminem that night and danced around my house, you told me about your dream to be a Healer and I told you mine of wanting to be a writer. I silently added with you as my husband when you fell asleep on my sofa.
Can't you see that I'm the one who understand you?
Been here all along so why can't you see?
You belong with me
Standing by or waiting at your back door
All this time how could you not know that
You belong with me
You belong with me
Have you ever thought just maybe
You belong with me
Its graduation day tomorrow, the seventh years are having a ball tonight to celebrate the end of our time at Hogwarts, and the beginning of the rest of our lives. I don't have a date, no doubt your going with Pansy. I plan to tell you tomorrow how I feel.
I'm wearing a gorgeous green satin dress, a silver necklace that once belonged to my grandmother.
I walk down the steps and into Hogwarts entrance my thoughts go back to the beginning of the year when you yelled at me and said no one understands you, you never heard me but I whispered back I do. Because I do. I understand you Draco Malfoy, and you belong with me, but I just wish that you could see that.
I enter the great hall, and see Pansy all over a Ravenclaw.
I glance around the hall hoping to catch your blond hair. You're stood over by the drinks, surrounded by your friends. I make my way through the crowd and approach you. Your friend Zabini sees me coming and taps you on your shoulder, you turn around and see me.
A smile graces you lips, the same smile I haven't seen in while, you hand your drink to Zabini and make you way over to me.
When you reach me, you hold out your hand, "May I have this dance Miss Granger?"
I nod my head in reply and take your hand.
You pull me close and whisper in my ear...
You belong with me
