A/N: from the prompt "I'm trying to ask you to join us in our relationship, but you keep mucking things up with your great big wall of no feelings!" Dratomione?


Of course, it was just his luck that his girlfriend would enter his and Draco's office at the exact moment he'd decided to accost him. Hermione blushed and Draco got paler, if that were even possible, but Tom simply raised his chin defiantly and dared him to protest, even as he got up from his chair and went to stand behind Hermione and wrapped an arm around her waist.

"Tom," she warned, her voice a mere whisper, "don't."

"No," he replied tersely, darting his eyes to hers before he continued to glare across the office at Draco, "this is getting ridiculous and he knows it."

"I don't want to get in the way!" He yelled and Hermione's eyes widened at his outburst before she flicked her wand and slammed their door shut, throwing up a couple of silencing spells for good measure.

"Well you haven't been in the way every other time you've joined us."

"That was different."

"How?"

"IT WAS JUST SEX!" He yelled. Hemione tensed and Tom instinctively tightened his grip on her.

"Just sex," he sneered, "I knew you were a coward Malfoy but I didn't take you for a liar too."

"Draco," Hermione whispered, "please."

Draco's eyes flicked to her's and he visibly weakened but he simply shook his head. "I have to go."

He swiftly stood and moved past them, throwing the door open and leaving both Hermione and Tom gaping after him.

"Bastard," Tom muttered as he turned Hermione in his arms and let her ruin his shirt with her tears.
