Hello people! Chapter 9, can you believe it? This is the last week of school for me, so it's a little hectic right now, please enjoy!
As Hermione walked down the hall to the great hall, she fidgeted with her hands as she thought of Harry and Ron's reactions to her NEWS. Oh I do hope they understand. As she walked to the Gryffindor table, she caught Draco looking at her; he flashed an encouraging smile and she felt warmth creep up her cheeks. She still managed to blush even though they had been together for about a month now.
" 'Ello Hermione!" Harry and Ron chimed that together.
She raised her eyebrows, "Wow, you guys been practicing or what? What's with the togetherness and stuff?"
They chuckled and gestured for her to follow them out of the Great Hall.
"Where are you taking me guys?" and "Don't you want to eat first?"
They winked at each other and pulled her along anyways.
She brushed her hair out of her eyes and took a deep breath, "Look, guys, before you do anything, I have something important to tell you."
"Get on with it then!" Harry and Ron looked impatient.
"Uh, ah, well, you see… okay, I'll tell it to you straight and forward: imwithdraco!"
She will never forget the looks on their faces when she told them. They had started to guffaw and laugh.
"What? Why are you guys laughing?"
As Harry and Ron struggled to catch their breaths, "Ah, Her-Hermione, w-we knew all along, we had planned to talk to you about it today, right now; we even invited Draco here so we could discuss peace!" With that, Draco walked out of the shadows and chuckled softly.
"See? I told you not to worry."
"Ah!" Relief swept over her face and she leant against the wall.
"I though Ron and Harry were going to kill Draco." She flashed all three of them a smile and then gestured towards the Great Hall.
"Can we eat first?"
Ron faked a faint, "Is this the famous bookworm asking to eat just like me? Me?"
Harry and Ron laughed, and Hermione gave them a playful shove. As the four separated, Drace gave Hermione a hug and whispered into her ear, "See? Nothing to worry about." He flashed her another one of those dazzling smiles and then strolled away. As warmth crept up her cheeks again, she felt like this was one perfect day. Later, as she found out by finding Harry and threatening him she found out that Draco had asked Harry and Ron if he should've kissed her and if he should've told her he loved her. Harry and Ron had noticed long ago Draco eyeing Hermione. With the ball in her mind, she started sketching out decorations and dresses.
Ah. Hope you like it! Please Review. (:
