The Concert
Chapter 7
"You know the Paparazzi are going to have a field day with this." Hermione said.
"The what?"
"The reports."
"Why?"
"Think about it: our alternate personalities are very popular in both the Wizarding and Muggle worlds. They are going to be following us around and taking pictures if we have our glamours on." She explained.
"That's one thing I can't stand about reporters. They are always in your face with the bloody cameras. Plus they are constantly making up stories to sell their paper."
"I've been wanting to put them in their place."
"How so?"
"I have been trying to write a song about it but something's missing."
"If you want, I can take a look at it later."
"Would you really?"
"Sure."
"I would greatly appreciate that."
"It's no problem. I like the way you write. You put so much feeling behind your songs." Draco said as he turned his head to look at her then he turned back to the road.
Keeping one hand on the wheel, Draco reached over and took her hand. She looked at him and smiled. She squeezed his hand in thanks.
The radio, still on, filled the silence.
"Here's a special request from Samantha to her father." DJ said.
Faith Hill:
Daddy take me with you
I promise I'll be good
Daddy, this is next time
And momma said I could
Sittin' in the front seat ridin' down town
An icecream cone I'd wrap him around
My little finger
Tighter then my baby could
You can make a tear go a long long way
When you're daddy's little girl
Well he tightened my bike chain from 7 to 13
Taught me to drive when I was a wild thing
Reached and he prayed while I made some mistakes
That I wouldn't have made if I'd have done it his way
Now he hugs me when he sees me
We talk about the past
He tries to give me money
And I try and give it back
He's a book of advice
More then I need
The look in his eyes is saying to me
Let me help you all I can
While I'm still in this world
What will you do when you're daddy's gone
And you're daddy's little girl
Jeff Carson:
There's two things I know for sure
She was sent here from heaven
And she's daddy's little girl
As I drop to my knees by her bed at night
She talks to Jesus
And I close my eyes
And I think God for all of the joy in my life
Oh, but most of all
For butterfly kisses
With her momma there
Stickin' little white flowers
All up in her hair
Walk me down the isle daddy
It's just about time
Does my wedding gown look pretty daddy?
Daddy don't cry
With all that I've done wrong
I must have done something right
To deserve her love every morning
And butterfly kisses for life
Faith Hill:
What'll I do when my daddy's gone
As the song played, Hermione started to shake hard. Draco felt her and looked over and saw that she was hyperventilating.
Draco quickly pulled to the side of the road. He jumped out and rushed to the passenger side and pulled Hermione out of the car.
Standing with her back to his chest, he whispered in her ear, "Breath with me. Let the air in through you nose and out through your mouth."
She tried but couldn't. "I…..can't" she gasped.
Knowing that he couldn't use magic, he placed his hand at the base of her neck.
"You can do it, Mya. Breathe with me. Feel my chest rise and fall."
Hermione was able to make her breaths long and deep after several minutes with Draco's help. She was still shaking as he sat her down in the grass. He didn't want to leave until he knew that she was ok.
Draco went back to the car to get the keys and shut the doors. He sat down by her when he came back.
After a few minutes, he heard her ask "How?"
"After years of watching my mother fearing Lucius, I know what a panic attack looks like. I used to have to help my mother calm down several times. I didn't know that you had them."
"I'm usually by myself when I have them. I can calm my self down before they get bad, but I couldn't this time."
"Mya, you just has the most traumatizing night of your life. You lost your parents. I'm surprised it didn't hit you earlier."
"It was the song. I'm a daddy's little girl.. I used to cry whenever I thought of losing my dad. Don't get me wrong, I love my mum, but I was always closer to my dad. Now that I've lost them both, I don't know what I'm going to do." She started to cry.
Draco scooted closer to Hermione and put his arm around her. She turned and sobbed into his shoulder.
"You will continue on with your life. Just remember they will always be with you. You and I both know that they are very proud of you." He said.
He held tight, telling her comforting things and even kissed her forehead to let her know that he was there for her.
After about 10 minutes, Hermione's tears slowed and eventually stopped. She pulled back and looked at him.
'His eyes are beautiful.' She thought. 'Why have I not noticed them before?'
She leaned forward and kissed his check.
"What was that for?" he asked.
"For becoming the way you are." She said.

P.S. I don't own anything but the plot. Everything Harry Potter belongs to J.K. Rowling and the song belongs to Faith Hill
