Oh yes. I'm back again! I'm almost over with this story, but I can't concentrate on it now. Only a month left til graduation. Then I'll post tons of fics.
I edited Granger danger here btw, so that it could fit the fic.
Chapter Four: Muse
Hermione's POV
For some reason, Draco and I managed to hold that truce for a couple of weeks. I was surprised that in a short period of time, he was already playing guitar like a pro.
We walked to Muggle Studies together, discussing piano keys because he wanted to learn to play it too. When we got inside the room, everybody was quiet.
The effects of a Slytherin talking in a civilized manner with a Gryffindor: Mind blowing.
"Good morning, class," Professor Vesta said. The open mouths shut and everyone's attention returned to class. "Today, we will be having a guest instructor. He will be with us until the performance night. He is the former guitarist of the Weird Sisters, Drew Bacchus."
There was unenthusiastic clapping from the class as a tall, well-groomed man entered the classroom. In my opinion, he looked too clean to be a rock star.
"Alright, chaps," he began. "I know song writing is a pretty difficult task, so I'm here to help. The first rule in writing songs—"
"Wait, rule?" Seamus wondered.
"Hold your horses, m'boy," Drew said. "The rules I'm giving out are basically natural laws, something that is common universally. Anyway, as I was saying, the first rule in song writing is . . . Write not only with your minds, but more importantly, your hearts."
I smiled at his words. He might be a true blue rocker after all.
"Now, everyone close your eyes," he said. "The next rule is, look for your muse. Your inspiration. Let your mind go blank. I want you to imagine just darkness." I nodded. "Your inspiration could be something that's really special to you, somewhere, you always want to be . . . or someone who makes you happy."
As soon as he said the words, a pair of silver eyes was looking at me, blond bangs covering his brow partially.
It was the face of Draco Malfoy.
"No!" I screamed unintentionally, snapping my eyes open. Damn enemy reflexes.
"Miss Granger, is something wrong?" Drew asked, placing his hand on my shoulder.
"No," I said as calmly as I could. "I just . . . thought of the wrong person."
"Miss Granger, whoever pops up in your mind the first time is your muse."
Draco's POV
Doesn't Bacchus know that I'm beside Hermione? I was practically straining just so I couldn't hear him.
Come on, Draco, you're not falling in love, you're not falling in love. You're not falling in love with Hermione Granger.
Crap.
Now I have the makings of a new song.
As soon as we were dismissed, I thanked Merlin for that free period.
I ran up to our dormitory and shut myself in my room with the guitar. As soon as I grabbed it, chords flew from my brain to my fingers.
Here I am
face to face
with a situation I never thought I'd ever see
It's strange, how a test
can take a mess, and make her nothing less than,
beautiful to me
Seems like my eyes have been transfigured
something deep inside has changed
they've open wide but hold that trigger
this could mean
Danger! I'm falling in love
Falling in love
Falling in love
I think I'm falling in love
Falling in love
Falling in love
With Hermione Granger
"No!" I scolded myself. "You are not falling in love with Hermione Granger!"
Hermione's POV
After Muggle Studies, I decided that a free period by the lake would calm me down, but I was wrong. As soon as I sat down I broke into song.
What? What the hell is this?
Why do I want to sing about him? Don't care about him!
We didn't really make up, Mione wake up!
I'm mistaken.
He is not the hottest guy I've ever seen!
Coz he's just like all the guys that I have seen
Don't know why, I'm suddenly so keen.
This could mean
Danger! I'm falling in love
Falling in love
Falling in love
I could be falling in love
Falling in love
Falling in love
Oh Hermione Granger
No! No! NO! I'm not falling in love with Draco!
I wanna let her know
I feel so queasy
But I can't let it show
She'd laugh, poor Mione
Come on,
Mione,
Draco
You gotta let it go
You gotta let it go
Here I am (What!)
Face to face (What the hell is this?)
with a situation (Why am I singing about you)
I never thought I'd ever see (Singing about you)
It's strange (I want to make up)
how a dress (Mione, wake up!)
can take a mess (I've been mistaken)
and make her nothing less than
beautiful to me
It feels like my eyes (he is the hottest guy)
have been transfigured (I've ever seen)
something deep inside (And he's just not like the others I've seen)
has changed (I've never seen)
Don't know why I'd ever been so mean
This could mean
Danger! I'm falling in love
Falling in love
Falling in love
With Mione I'm falling in love
Falling in love
Falling in love
Oh Hermione Granger
With Hermione Granger (This could mean danger)
With Hermione Granger (Oh hermione Granger)
Danger!
"He cannot know," Hermione said to herself.
"No, she can't," Draco breathed.
