CHAPTER 5 Jealousy
Thursday had come quicker than Hermione would have liked it. Hermione got out of bed and lazily made her way to her bathroom. After she took a quick shower and dressed in a pair of plain dark blue jeans, a cosy green jumper with grey boots and tied her hair up into a long pony tall she made her way down the marble staircase and entered the dinning room. When she entered she found Draco sitting at the table reading his newspaper and sipping his tea.
Hermione walked around the large table and sat herself next to Draco and poured herself a cup of tea. Draco lifted his head from his paper and smiled at Hermione "Good morning."
"Hi good morning to you too." Hermione smiled back. Draco put his newspaper down and stared intensely at Hermione's face as she drank her tea.
"Well Hermione we've got a busy day today. I hope you slept well last night."
Hermione was in the middle of chewing her toast when she realised that Draco said they had a busy day today. What busy day I don't remember talking about a busy day.
Hermione continued to chew her toast when she answered "whatbusydayIdon'tremembertalkingaboutabusyday"
Draco just stared at Hermione like she was a crazy person "English please Hermione." Draco smiled
Hermione realised that she must have not made any sense.
Draco watched as Hermione chewed her toast for what felt like forever. Finally Hermione swallowed the piece of toast in her mouth and decided to explain what she was trying to explain.
"What busy day Draco we never talked about what we were going to do today."
Draco looked uncomfortable and after a few minutes answered "Well Hermione you know tomorrow night we're going to attend my mother's birthday dinner and then go to Italy."
Hermione listened attentively and wondered where this conversation was going "Yes, I know" Hermione said slowly.
Draco looked at her and continued "Anyway my father made me promise that I would take you shopping today so we can buy a formal dress for tonight's dinner." Draco said the last part of the sentence so fast Hermione nearly missed it.
Hermione felt anger rush through her body "SHOPPİNG!"
Draco had guessed that Hermione was going to act like this "Yes Hermione shopping I thought we could go to Diagon Alley there's this shop there that sell's formal garments."
Hermione just sat there and listened to Draco talking about shops that sold garments. Ah I always knew Lucius was a ass like I can't dress myself.
Hermione politely answered keeping her voice as calm as she could "Well thank you Draco for your kind offer but I think I have grown enough to dress myself." Hermione ended her sentence with her voice raising in the end.
"I know Hermione you can dress yourself I'm not saying you can't but we're just going to buy a dress that's all." Draco tried to keep his voice as calm as possible but it wasn't going that well.
Hermione raised from her seat and stood in front of Draco "Draco I've got a room full of dresses I'm sure I can just wear one of them."
"Oh God Hermione can you just calm down please." Draco stopped mid sentence and took a deep breath before continuing "It's just one dress can you just, just stop it."
Hermione knew she was being unreasonable but she couldn't help it she didn't like the idea of Lucius thinking she didn't know how to dress herself. When Hermione looked in to Draco's eyes she could see the desperation in his eyes. Hermione felt herself calm down as she looked at Draco's face.
Hermione pointed her finger at Draco's chest and poked him as she said "Just ONE dress Draco and that's it deal?"
Draco couldn't help the smile that formed on his lips "That's all I wanted Hermione. Come on let's go."
Draco rose from his seat and pointed his hand towards the door and waited for Hermione to walk out of the door.
Hermione left the dining room and made her way to the coat closet and pulled out her coat and pulled it on. Draco followed Hermione and opened the front door for Hermione to walk out of.
Draco apparated himself and Hermione in to Diagon Alley. Hermione was still angry after the fight in the dining room, Draco watched Hermione waiting for her to say something Hermione stood there cross armed for about a few minutes and turned to Draco "Well come on then I haven't got all day shopping for some stupid dress."
"Ah ok than let's go." Draco pointed his arm down the long alley of shops. Hermione nodded and made her way to a dress shop called Miss Madems.
Hermione entered the shop and looked around; the walls were painted light pink and there were matching pink soft chairs, there were long rows of evening garments. Hermione looked up to the ceiling and felt her mouth drop to the black marble floor as she caught sight of the big chandelier hanging from the ceiling.
Hermione felt Draco standing next to her "Hermione can you close your mouth please we're in public." Hermione could feel Draco smirking at the end of the sentence.
"Draco I think we should go to another shop."
"What? Why? There's nothing wrong with this one."
Hermione leaned next to Draco's ear and whispered "It's really expensive in here."
Draco paused as he felt her breath on his ear. Draco paused for a second and turned his head to whisper in Hermiones "wel ,we, I mean,. Ah Hermione dear I think you have forgotten that you are a Malfoy." Draco ended his sentence with his famous smirk.
Before Hermione could reply back a young woman with brown wavy hair and big hazel eyes appeared in fount of them.
"Well Mr. And Mrs. Malfoy what a pleasure to see you here. How may I help you today?"
"Thank you, We would like to look at some formal dresses for a dining party we will be intending." Hermione watched as Draco smiled at the young girl and how the girl nearly fell head over heels. Ah stupid people she nearly jumped in to his lap, like they don't know his married. AND his wife is standing fucking here for God's sake. Wait a minute why does this bother me? I don't care who he smiles at.
Hermione suddenly realised that she was standing along in the middle of the store. Hermione looked around and spotted Draco and the sales person standing in the middle of a long row of dresses. Hermione slowly walked up to Draco and stood next to him.
After about a few minutes Hermione felt a Hugh pile of clothes being pushed in to her hands.
"What?"
"Hermione love can you please try these on?" Draco smiled.
"Love?" Where did love come from all of a sudden?
Draco slowly nodded to the left pointing at the young sales person "Yes love please try them on."
Hermione looked at where Draco was pointing and nodded "Ah ok dear. I'll be right back." Hermione smiled and left heading to the dressing cabins.
Hermione entered the cabin and looked at the pile of clothes in her arms. Oh for God's sake it's going to take me forever to try all of these on.
Hermione pulled a light blue dress from the pile and chanced into it. Hermione looked at herself in the mirror she was wearing a knee length strapless dress with a big yellow flower design going through the middle. Oh my God what's wrong with this dress? Who would even design a dress like this.
Hermione thoughts were disturbed by the knock on the door. "Well are you coming out than your husband would love to see you in the dresses." Hermione could sense the woman letting out a little laugh at the end of the sentence.
That bitch she gave me all of these idiot dresses willingly to embarrass me in front of Draco.
"I don't think I will be coming out do you think you can call MY husband to come in here?" Hermione could hear the woman stomping of to go get Draco. Wait a minute why did I just call Draco to come in here. I don't want him to see my like this.
Suddenly the door of the dressing room opened a inch and Draco slided though the little gap and stood in front of Hermione looking at her with a open mouth.
"Hermione why did you call me in here? And why are you wearing that dress it's horrible!"
Hermione laughed at how Draco's face changed when he talked about the dress. "Well that idiot woman gave me this stupid dress and a hundred more like this to try on just to embarrass me. Can you believe that?"
"Hermione I don't think that's what she was trying to do."
"Ah can you please leave now so I can get out of the dress. And take these dresses with you." Hermione handed Draco the dresses and opened the door for him to leave.
Hermione took off the dress and put on back her own clothes.
Hermione walked back to the row of dresses and found Draco sitting on one of the pink chairs looking as bored as ever. Draco lifted his head and smiled as Hermione came and stood in front of him.
"Now I think I'm going to pick out my own dress now come on." Hermione put her hand in front of Draco. Draco looked at Hermione's hand and then at her face. He reached out and took Hermione's hand in his and slowly rose from his seat. As Draco took hold of Hermione's hand Hermione could see the sale woman form the corner of her eye looking like she wanted to hex Hermione. Hermione smiled to herself as Draco stood next to her holding her hand.
They walked to the row of dresses in black and looked through them. As Hermione was looking through the dresses she heard Draco talking when she turned around she realised that Draco was talking to the sales woman. The woman was touching Draco's arm and laughing like he had just made the funniest joke in the world. Hermione felt anger rush through her body when she saw someone else touching Draco's arm I'm his wife I don't want other women touching him. His my husband. Before Hermione could control what she was doing she had turned Draco around and now was kissing him on the lips. Draco didn't move he just stood there with Hermione on his lips. After about a few seconds Draco came back to reality and moved his hands to the side of Hermione's face and kissed her back. Hermione lifted her hands up and felt them mix into Draco's hair.
Hermione suddenly broke the kiss "Oh my God I'm so sorry. I, I, I didn't know what happened." As soon as Hermione finished her sentence she had left the shop. Draco stood there for a minute before he realised that Hermione had left.
