That tis true. Loads of feelings in Chapter 34. I was so ready for this chapter like 20 chapters ago. I love this one! I wish I could cry, but I can never cry at any sad or romantic parts in movies, TV, books, etc. I poured my heart and soul into every chapter, especially 33 and this one. I hope you love it too. Also, check out the fanvideo featuring the song in the chapter!

Chapter 34: Tonight Part Two(Good Enough)
Hermione fled, running, trying to think. It was all rushing to her head, taking over, strangling her. Hermione stopped for a breath of air. Suddenly, something grabbed her arm. She turned to see who it was, and it wasn't the Count.
"Teresa?" Hermione was startled a bit.
"Come with me." she lead Hermione into the servants quarters, hoping Dracula would not catch onto them. "We should be safe for now, Miss, but there is something I have taken notice to..."
"What's that?" Hermione wondered.
"You love him, don't you..."
"I...I..."
"I can tell Miss. You see, you detested the Master at first, but, now, you see him for what he truly is...You have changed him, Miss. I've never seen him care for someone as much as you."
Hermione absorbed Teresa's words. "Was it obvious?"
"Slightly, if you looked for it. Now, I noticed your piano skills as well, and that song..."
"Something told me I had to learn it..."
"Tonight."
"What?"
"Well, you do love him, am I correct?"
Hermione nodded. "So what do you suggest?"
"Play it tonight. He'd love your voice, and he'd understand."
"Ok then." She was confident now. "I'll play it tonight, and I won't hide my feelings any longer. Thank you, Teresa!"
Teresa curtsied as Hermione ran to find the nearest piano. As she did, two aspects of her mind bickered. The good Hermione, and the Bad Hermione. Good Hermione was always acknowledged, and respected highly. The Bad Hermione was tired of it.
"You should have done that in the first place!" Bad Hermione shouted. "You didn't need Teresa to tell you."
"Ease up!" Good Hermione snapped. "Teresa's a nice person, and plus, what can you do? It's Count Dracula for crying out loud!"
"Both of you, stop it!" Hermione ordered inside her head.
"Oh come on! You always side with her!" Bad Hermione hissed.
"Wait.." Good Hermione halted everyone. Hermione could no longer hear the two sides of her arguing; they seemed to disappear for the moment.
They then came back. Good Hermione spoke once more. "We both agree with Teresa. Tell him."
"Otherwise..you may grow too old.." Bad Hermione snickered.
"See? This is why Hermione always sides with me!" Good Hermione scowled.
"Guys?! I get it! I'm going ahead with it anyways..."
"Let him turn you tonight..." Bad Hermione said in a wicked and evil voice.
"Now hold up! You shouldn't be going ahead with this too quickly..."
"No.." Hermione sighed mentally. "Bad me is right. I can;t wait forever. Plus, I now know that being a mortal is too painful."
Bad Hermione wished she actually had a body so she could jump for joy. "Finally! You take my advice!"
They both vanished. Hermione sighed with relief that they were quiet again.
Hermione knew it was time. Tonight. Tonight. To pour it all out, like he did. She wanted to be all his. She felt that she belonged to him.
"Hermione?" he called out, not sure which direction she went in.
God, I mean, Satan, please help me remember everything in this song, and to get it completely right! I'm begging you, make him understand that I love him, and need him more than ever.
She looked at the piano in the room. It glowed from the moonlight. Everything was happening so fast. She swallowed hard, and sat down on the bench next to the piano. Her fingers hit the keys gracefully. He heard the noise almost instantly. He walked, knowing where she was. After playing the intro, Hermione began to sing.
"Under your spell again.
I can't say no to you."
He entered the room, but she didn't pay attention. He listened to her belt it out.
"Crave my heart and it's bleeding in your hand.
I can't say no to you."
She sounded so beautiful, he was silent, which was rare for The Count.
"Shouldn't have let you torture me so sweetly.
Now I can't let go of this dream.
I can't breathe but I feel...
Good enough,
I feel good enough for you."
The piano keys kicked in, and the next verse was coming on.
"Drink up sweet decadence.
I can't say no to you,
And I've completely lost myself, and I don't mind.
I can't say no to you."
He figured that she was letting it all out. That she was waving the white flag. She was surrendering.
"Shouldn't let you conquer me completely.
Now I can't let go of this dream.
Can't believe that I feel...
Good enough,
I feel good enough.
It's been such a long time coming, but I feel good."
It was hauntingly beautiful. He appeared behind her, not making a sound. Tears glowing on her face from the moonlight.
He couldn't believe the spectacle he was witnessing.
"And I'm still waiting for the rain to fall.
Pour real life down on me.
'Cause I can't hold on to anything this good enough.
Am I good enough for you to love me too?"
The melody slowed down, and he could tell the song was ending. He began to walk closer to her, quietly of course.
"So take care what you ask of me,
'cause I can't say no."
A cold hand rested on her shoulder. Hermione turned to see The Count. She breathed.
"Is that..." he was going to say more, but was cut off.
Hermione stood up. "I love you, Vladislaus Dracula. I've been telling myself that I couldn't be possible, but it is. You said yourself that you were... Hollow. I believed it first, thinking that I was also a bit hollow. But I began to realize, you weren't. You made yourself believe that. You can feel emotion. You don't need a pulse to have emotions. You feel joy, sorrow, lust, rage, happiness, and perhaps, love. Don't you see? I can't suffer anymore with a mortal soul. You were right." she hugged him tightly, not wanting to let go. She looked up into his entrancing blue eyes. Tears still lingered on her face. They weren't of pain, buy...joy. "I'm yours...for eternity..."
It was in an instant that she planted a kiss on his cold lips, and he gladly returned it. Their tongues danced, and played for what seemed like hours, but was really a few minutes. He let go.
"Tonight..." he spoke breathlessly. "I...I can't wait any longer. Let me turn you into one of us..." he kissed her neck. Her warm flesh was addicting. "And your voice..when you were singing...so...divine.."
Hermione moaned as he kissed her neck. "Alright..." she whispered.
"What?" he looked into her eyes again.
"Alright, Master. Let's begin our eternity. Tonight..."
He smiled. She had succumbed willingly, and for the first time in centuries, true love was in his life.
AN: Okay, If you haven't heard Good Enough by Evanescence, please go listen to it. It is an incredible song, and It was so appropriate for the whole Dracula Hermione thing. Please Read and Review! Chapter 35 up soon...
