Hey guys! Thank you so much for all of the reviews! I am loving all the feedback. I had taken a break from writing this, up until this week that is, because I had some major writer's block. But lucky for you guys, I have been inspired. This story is going to take an interesting turn here soon, so stay tuned and I hope you enjoy!
PS. again, I do not own any of the HP world, just this story line.
HPOV
Hermione stood outside of his door, arm raised, ready to knock. She couldn't bring herself to do it, she felt terrible for what she did. What could she possibly say to make things right? Would he forgive her? She doubted it, but she had to try.
"How long are you going to stand there?" Draco's voice drifted through the door, causing her to jump. He swung the door open.
" How did you know I was there?" She asked, blush creeping up her neck and cheeks.
" It's a little thing Muggles like to call a video camera," he said, pointing above the door. " What do you want Hermione?"
She didn't know what to say. How could she say how wrong she was?
" I… I'm…" She could feel the tears stinging the backs of her eyes. " I am so sorry Draco. I have never been so wrong about something…"
" Save your breath Hermione. I put myself out there and you crushed my heart. I have been in love with you since third year and when I actually get a chance to show you how much, you do this."
" I know! I don't know why I just assumed what Ron was saying, was true. I guess I am just so use to the way things were when we were in school, where I could trust him with everything and you with nothing."
" You don't think I understand that?" His voice booming against the hall walls. " But I thought that you saw the real me, that you would have at least given me the benefit of the doubt. But no, no matter what I do, it's never going to be enough for you, is it?"
She reached for him then, but he pulled his hand away.
" Draco, you are enough for me. I'm the one who isn't enough for you."
" Mione," the use of her nickname hit her hard. " I can't do this. I have wanted you for so long. Had to watch the looser hang all over you and you never looked at me the way you looked at him, until recently. I thought I had finally won you over, but he will always win, won't he?"
" No, Draco! You have treated me better in these past few months than he ever had in years."
" Then you shouldn't have been so quick to believe him over me."
" Draco… I…"
" Just stop," he said with a tone of finality. He turned around to go back into his apartment and closed the door in her face.
She let the tears flow down her face then. She had really lost him.
" He wouldn't even listen to me, Gin." She sobbed into her phone once she got back to her apartment.
" Do you really blame him, Mione? You did the same thing to him about the Ron thing. You didn't give him an opportunity to explain himself."
" I know," She admitted. " I just wanted to talk to him, get him to understand why I did what I did, but I couldn't even do that."
" You really hurt him. You can't expect forgiveness right away."
" I know," Hermione said, tears falling down her face once again. " I just hope I didn't ruin the best thing that has happened to me in a long time."
A short while later, Hermione and Ginny hang up with each other. Hermione started to drift to sleep on the couch. She didn't hear the person aparate outside of the door or the spell undoing the lock. She only woke when she felt a body binding curse be put on her. Since her eyes were closed when the curse was put on her, she couldn't see who it was. But there was a smell, she couldn't put her finger on it, it was familiar.
She could feel herself being levitated off the bed and being disapparated out of her apartment. There was no way for her to tell where she was going or who had taken her. All she knew, was that she was in danger and no one would know that she was gone for hours, maybe even days. They wouldn't know where to look for her.
Let me know what you think! I hope you enjoyed this chapter. I really should have joined the last three chapters into one, but I feel like it is more exciting this way. I will try to make the next few chapters longer.
What do you think of the way Draco responded to her? Was it too harsh or did she get what she deserved?
