Chapter 7

Disclaimer: Again, I own nothing regarding Harry Potter, it is fun to have Hermione and Draco end up together!

The weekend went by way too quickly. Hermione was grateful that the Dallas Cowboys were not playing until Monday night, so she was free for the whole weekend. Draco had made her dress in her uniform so he could take it off piece by tiny piece. He was so naughty and she loved indulging him. She could not believe the great time they had together. The sex was fantastic, but they had so much more in common. If two people were genuinely made for each other, it was Draco and Hermione.

Draco left late Sunday evening. Hermione had tears in her eyes when he was leaving, but he kissed them away. He reassured her that they were going to see each other in a few weeks when she was going to be back in London. Although their close friends knew that they were together, they decided that it would good time to let everyone know they were an official couple when Hermione was back in the wizarding world. As Draco was flying back to London, he thought about the small Zabini Jewelers box he had in tucked in a suitcase. He really wanted to propose to Hermione this past weekend but did not want to pressure her. Damn, he loved that woman.

Hermione went to sleep Sunday night with a heavy heart but was glad to know that they would be together again in a few weeks. She went to work on Monday and only stayed until noon because she had to be at Cowboys Stadium early for the Monday night game. Eliza, her assistant, and other ladies in the office told her how handsome Draco was and were glad to see that she was so happy. Hermione smiled and thought she was very happy and felt like finally, everything in her life was falling into place and meant to be.

When she arrived at the stadium, her coaches brought all of the cheerleaders in for a meeting. There was going to be a surprise during the halftime part of the game. The cheerleaders had been practicing a routine to Enrique Iglesias' song "I Like It" and had planned on performing it for the first time that night. What they didn't know was that Enrique Iglesias was going to be there on the field with them! Hermione and the other women were quite excited. She had always listened to muggle music even while attending Hogwarts and she was a big fan of his music. This was going to be fun.

Draco returned to work on Monday and saw that he had gobs of paperwork waiting for him. He loved his job as an Auror, but once arrests were made and cases were solved, there were always so many forms to fill. He spoke to Harry and told him that he had gone to visit Hermione and that they had a wonderful time. Harry was glad for Hermione and could not help but notice how animated Draco was when he spoke of her. Harry thought to himself, "Oh yeah, you're gone mate. You have definitely fallen head over heels for Ms. Granger." They made plans to have lunch later on that week. It was still hard for Harry to believe that they were actually friends now, but considering all what Harry had been through, stranger things have happened.

Being the Dallas Cowboy fan, Blaise had taped the game and planned a gathering at his home for anyone that wanted to watch. It was an excuse to get drunk and typical male bonding, but the guys enjoyed it. Draco, Harry and Ron were there, along with many other Hogwarts alumni. Being from a different house at Hogwarts didn't matter anymore. Everyone enjoyed each other's company. Ron gave Draco a good-natured punch on the arm, and said, "You and Hermione, huh?" Draco smiled and said, "Yeah, who would have ever believed that?" Ron replied, "Well, you seem to be decent, she could do worse." Draco told him to fuck off and they started laughing. Blaise started the game and everyone sat in his comfortable living area. Only a few people in the room knew what Hermione looked like in that uniform and he could not wait to see the others reactions. He wondered if they would be able to catch glimpses of Hermione cheering. It was much more than a glimpse, Draco was pissed.

Enrique Iglesias - I Like It

Girl please excuse me
If I'm coming too strong
But tonight is the night
We can really let go
My girlfriend is out of town
And I'm all alone
Your boyfriend is on vacation
And he doesn't have to know
No oh oh, oh oh
No one can do the things I'm gonna wanna do to you
No oh oh, oh oh
Shout aloud, screamin loud
Let me hear you go!
[Chorus]
Baby I like it
The way you move on the floor
Baby I like it

Come on and give me some more
Oh yes I like it
Screaming like never before
Baby I like it
I, I, I like it.

The first two quarters of the game played, then the halftime show came on. While the game was being played there were brief camera shots of the cheerleaders but it went so fast, it was hard to find Hermione. This all changed when the halftime show started. The music started and the cheerleaders started strutting their stuff on the field. Enrique Iglesias came out and immediately started going to every member of the squad. When he arrived at Hermione, he stopped and positioned himself behind her and they moved together in perfect harmony. Unbeknownst to the audience, this was practiced before the show started. Hermione was the best dancer and Enrique wanted to look good, so he chose her. It was all very innocent and very professional, but to the casual onlooker it looked like Enrique really wanted to put the moves on Hermione. While everyone at Blaise's house was glued to the television and still not believing that the total babe they were watching was Hermione "Bookworm" Granger, Draco was fuming. That song was horrible and what was that vile muggle doing to his Hermione. Blaise noticed Draco was sitting quietly and had a stoic look on his face while watching the show. He asked, "What's wrong mate?" Draco shook his head and replied, "Look at that, he has his hands all over her and she is enjoying it." Blaise told him, "Oh no, don't take it that way. I would bet on my life that the routine is staged. Astoria leaves all these muggle celebrity magazines lying around and I am pretty sure that Enrique Iglesias is in a committed relationship. I truly believe it is all for show man." Draco let out a breath and said, "You think so?" Blaise smiled and told him, "I know so, what do you expect? Hermione is the hottest one out there, of course he would want to dance with her. You trust her, you have nothing to worry about." Draco said, "Thanks Blaise, I feel better. I am just so protective of her. I cannot wait until we can always be together. This long distance relationship sucks."

Oh, just a few more weeks and Hermione will be back in the wizarding world. Thank you so much for the reviews and adding my story on to favorites and alerts, it means the world to me! I am having so much fun writing this, hope you are still enjoying it!
