Frankie's POV
I hopped out of the shower and used a spell to make my hair dry and straight. I applied my makeup and looked at myself in the mirror. I liked the way I did my makeup and knew it would make Draco want me. Which is what he wasn't getting. I looked at my watch and was that it was already 6:05. I went and put my dress and necklace on. I didn't feel pretty like I did the first time I wore it. I felt ugly. I felt like I didn't want to go see him at all. But I just shook it off and headed downstairs to my car. I hopped in and before I knew it, I was at the park, and it was 6:25. I decided to wait in the car until it was 6:30. Why should I go and look like I actually wanted to be there? I waited the five minutes and got out of the car. I looked around and saw no Draco. So I sat on the swing. I felt bad. I shouldn't be here. I should be with Ron right now. Not waiting for Draco to arrive. Right? I heard footsteps behind me and a voice that made me want to kill him.
"You came!" he said happily.
"Yep. So can we get going so I can leave as soon as possible?" I said annoyed. He nodded and took me to his car.
"Wow actually taking yourself somewhere eh?" I said sarcastically. He just ignored my comment and drove. He drove to his house.
"Why are we here?" I asked.
"Because I have a surprise." He said. He led me into the backyard. There was a table in the middle of it and candles everywhere there was a place setting for two and... It actually looked nice.
"I did it myself." He said while pulling out my chair for me.
"I hope you don't think that will get you any bonus points." I said. He sat down. And a house elf came and brought us wine.
"Would you like some miss?" the house elf asked kindly.
"No thank you. I would like some water though" I said. He nodded and disappeared into the house. He reappeared with my water. I thanked him and he was off.
"So I've asked you here tonight so I can properly explain my actions." He said.
"I think you explained it enough in your letter." I said bluntly.
"Alright. Well than can I ask you if there will ever be a chance of us being together again?"
"Yes you can ask me that. And no I don't think we can" I said. I was lying to him and myself.
"Oh. Anyways off that topic, how have you been lately? Anything new happen?" he asked trying to change the topic.
"I've been fine. As for anything new, I met up with an old friend. He introduced me to his friends, and basically they are who I've been hanging out with." I said.
"That's nice. Who are they?" he asked.
"I know you'll be happy to hear this..." I said.
"Harry Potter, Ronald Weasley, and Hermione Granger" I said with a small smirk on my face. Harry had told me at the party that Draco was basically their worst enemy. That probably why it hurt Ron so much when I told them who I was going to dinner with tonight.
"You're kidding right?" he said serious.
"Couldn't be more serious" I said.
"Even though I don't approve of your choices of friends, I will attempt to accept it" he said.
"I wasn't asking for your approval, I was just answering a question that you asked." I said
"Why are you doing this? You're acting like a..."
"Acting like what Draco? Go ahead and say it!" I yelled.
"A bitch! You're acting like a bitch and I hate it!" he yelled back.
"Well I hate the fact that you cheated on me, but that's not going to change!" I screamed.
"I know! I know okay? I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry! What do I have to do to get you to understand that? I'M SORRY!" he screamed. I just looked at him. I couldn't say anything. I could see tears building up in his eyes. He really was sorry.
"Please, just tell me you believe me." He said almost pleading.
"I... I believe you." I said.
"You... you do?" he said in shock.
"Yes. But I'm not saying I forgive you." I said
"I know. But it's a start." He said with a tiny smirk. A house elf came and gave us our food.
"Thank you Blix" Draco said. The house elf nodded and went back into the house. We ate in silence. But it wasn't an awkward one.
"I've missed you." Draco told me.
"I've missed you too." I said trying to not say anything that would ruin this.
"I can't believe I ruined what we had. I was so stupid to let myself throw away...us." he said looking at me in the eyes.
"Me neither." I said.
"umm excuse me. I'm just going to go to the bathroom" I said and walked into the house. I was on my way, when I was stopped.
"Frankie! Oh it's so wonderful to see you again dear!" Narcissa said.
"Its good to see you again too." I said.
"You know Draco's been a complete wreck for the past week. He has hardly eaten or slept. And he wouldn't leave his room. I've never seen him so depressed. Not even when he broke up with that awful Kate girl. I was quite worried about him. But now that you're here I know everything will be fine! Well don't let me keep you too from your date!" she said walking away. I headed back outside with outside without going to the bathroom. Draco saw me coming back and his face lit up. It was like he thought I wasn't coming back. I sat down and looked at him. I couldn't stop. It was like I was under a spell. And then I did something I never thought I would do in a million years.
I got up and walked over to him. He stood up confused and I kissed him. He was taken back at first but then he started kissing back. I put my hands on the back of head. He put his on my waste. I finally snapped back into reality realizing what we were doing. It was wrong. But for some reason I couldn't stop myself. We stood there kissing for like ten minutes when I finally pulled away. He looked at me confused at why I pulled away.
"Oh god. What have I done?" I said putting my head in my hands.
"What's wrong? Why was that a bad thing?" he asked even more confused.
"I can't believe this. I'm a horrible person. How could I do this to him? He knew I would fall for you, but I came anyway. God I'm so stupid." I said to myself as the tears were building up in my eyes waiting to be let out.
"Frankie what are you talking about?" Draco yelled.
"I... I have a boyfriend." I said. This time the tears poured down my face. There was no stopping them.
"You what?! What do you mean you have a boyfriend?" he screamed at me. I just sat there crying.
"Can you take me home Draco? Just... just please take me home" I said without giving an explanation. He nodded and took me to his car, and opened the door for me. I got in and the tears were still pouring out like a faucet. How could I do this to Ron? Now I'm exactly like Draco. My god I can't wait for the summer to be over. We were driving in silence.
"Who is your boyfriend?" he asked. I could tell he was trying not to yell.
"I don't want to tell you. I know you'll hate me." I said.
"Its not pothead is it?" he said on the verge of yelling.
"Don't call him that! But no it's not him." I said yelling the first part.
"Dear lord, its weasel be isn't it?" he said. Surprisingly still calm. I just nodded.
"I can't believe I've been replaced by that fool." He said shaking his head. I just sat there looking out the window. I can't believe what I had done. I had to tell him.
"Draco what time is it?" I asked
"Its about 9:30." He said still calm. Why was he so calm? We pulled into my driveway and I didn't even notice until Draco opened my door. And I fell out because I forgot to put on my seatbelt. He caught me.
"Draco, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have kissed you." I said.
"Why did you then?" he asked walking me to my door.
"I don't know. It just... OH CRAP! My car! I left it at the park!" I said
"Give me the keys and I'll bring it by tomorrow morning." He said. I nodded and handed him they keys. I hugged him and he walked away. I wanted him back. But I wanted Ron too. Oh gosh I was a horrible person. I walked inside and walked up the stairs. As soon as my head hit the pillow I was out like a light.
Draco's POV
I walked down her driveway and saw her walk into the house. I loved her so much. But I couldn't tell her that. She was with weasel boy now. It was hard enough being calm. I knew if I wasn't she probably wouldn't talk to me again. I drove to my house and walked in the front door. With Frankie still on my mind.Why did she kiss me? It's like she went pee and then she knew she wanted me. I head mother coming down the hall.
"Oh Draco darling! I'm so glad your finally back with that Frankie girl! She's so sweet!" she said
"How did you know she was here?" I asked suspiciously.
"Oh I ran into her in the hallway when she was coming to go to the bathroom, I assume." She said still smiling.
"What did you say to her?" I asked, maybe something mother said made her want to kiss me...? that doesn't make any sense. I'm an idiot.
"Oh I just told her how I happy I was that she was here again, and how you were very depressed this entire week, with locking yourself in your-" I cut her off.
"How could you tell her that? You made me look so incredibly needy and-" now she cut me off.
"Well I didn't tell her about the fact that all night, every night, I could hear you crying yourself to sleep!" she yelled.
"You heard... I mean I wasn't crying. You must have dreamt that. I'm going to bed. Night mum." I said running up the stairs. I was pathetic. I cried over a girl. A girl, I've only known for a month. A girl who is going home in 2 weeks. Oh god. She's leaving in two weeks. Why was I even trying? She didn't love me anymore.She loved Weasley. then why did she kiss you? Because she felt bad for me.she kissed you for 10 minutes, while knowing she had a boyfriend. She... oh shut up.hah you know I'm right. I know I'm going insane, because I'm talking to myself.true. But you still know I'm right. just SHUT UP!
