Hermione's heart fluttered as Draco's lips met hers in a passionate kiss. She could feel his affection and tenderness in the way he held her. His words and the sincerity in his eyes only deepened her emotions, and she whispered back close against his lips "I love you too ." The tip of her nose touching his, her gaze remained deep in his eyes as if she was looking into his soul. " I love you so much that it almost hurts" Hermione whispered and reached up , tracing her finger along his jawline then to his chin before pressing her lips on his again. Tenderly she nibbled on his lower lip, letting his lip gently slide between her teeth when she let go.

He kissed her deeply rubbing his nose against hers just wanting a little more from her. " I know baby.. it hurts to be away from you. For even a minute. We gotta figure out how to be okay with some distance. We both know it's gonna happen sooner or later. As long as I get to see you at the end of the day I'll be okay. " he said kissing her again. He just didn't want to let her go. He let out a pleasured moan feeling his lip between her teeth. " I'll never understand how I got you. I must have done something right in my life to have you. "

Hermione's heart ached with the truth in Draco's words. She knew he was right; they couldn't be together every single moment, especially considering their individual responsibilities and lives. But the thought of being apart from him even for a short while made her uneasy. "You've changed, grown so much. And I believe in us, in what we have. We'll find a way to make it work, I promise." She leaned in to give him another lingering kiss, her lips brushing against his as she spoke softly, "You have me, completely."

" of course we will make this work. What are you so scared of? " he asked curiously. " I'm not going anywhere darling. I promise. Because when we are apart. All I'll be thinking about is that moment I get you back in my arms. The first day will be the hardest but we will get through it. As long as when I get home I find you waiting for me in bed. Completely naked " he was half joking just to get her to crack a smile. " I'm kidding .. kinda. I do want to see you when I get home. " he said being completely serious about that part of what just said. " maybe I'll come find you and take you to a nice lunch just to spend some time together. Make the day easier. "

Hermione couldn't help but chuckle at Draco's cheeky remark. He had a way of lightening up even the most serious of conversations. "You're incorrigible," she teased, shaking her head with a smile. "But I do like the idea of having something to look forward to when you come home." She traced a finger along his jawline, her eyes locking onto his. "And lunch sounds lovely. I think knowing we have something planned for when we're apart will make it easier. It's just... I've never felt this way before, Draco. I want to be with you every moment, and the idea of being apart even for a short while is both exciting and a little scary." She sighed, thinking about it now she knew she had to leave in two days to get some things sorted in the muggle world but she didn't wanna tell him yet. " Since i am here with you i feel no worries." Hermione paused for a moment "I didn't even receive a letter. You must know..." she cringed a little at that " Ron is still looking for me."

" it's okay darling we will figure something out. I want this to work between us. I want to spend as much time as I can with you. The idea of coming home to you is amazing. Just to be close to you after hours apart. " He perked up a little and tightened his grip on her as he looked her in the eyes " what do you mean he's looking for you?" He asked more curious than anything. He knew they were together especially after the war. It was no secret what they had felt for each other.

Hermione's expression turned slightly troubled as she sighed, leaning her head against his chest. "It's a complicated situation, Draco. Ron... well, he's having a hard time adjusting, I suppose. He didn't take the news of me not wanting to be with him very well, and I think he's still struggling with it. He's been trying to reach out to me, wanting to talk and sort things out." She looked up at him with a mix of concern and sincerity. "I don't want anything to come between us. I don't want Ron's feelings to cause problems so let us just forget about it."

" define complicated " he said coaxing her to keep talking. He held her close and rubbed her back soothingly. " did you marry him or something?" He asked softly , he did have to laugh about one thing " oooh and I would love to see the look on Ron's face when he realizes where you have been all this time. Please can I tell him?" He asked titling his head with a cocky grin on his face. The arrogance was coming back quite easily at this point. That he had won Hermione's heart.

"No!" She looked shocked at him and raised a brow " Oh Merlin... no marriage involved!" she took a deep breath and had to chuckle. "It's just that Ron and I have a long history together, and he's finding it difficult to accept that I didn't want to be with him anymore. The only thing we shared was kisses , for a reason. It just never felt right." She cringed again when she thought about the fact that they kissed " We've been through so much, and he was one of my closest friends for years. But he really doesn't know how to treat a woman, at least not me." She looked at him with a slightly hesitant smile. "As for telling him... well, I want to be the one to handle it. It's important to me that he understands and accepts our relationship." she rolled her eyes a bit and smirked a little " I know how much you would love to tell him"

" oh yes I would love to tell him the truth. " he said nodding eagerly but he understood it needed to come from her. " Hermione .. you're beautiful.. sexy .. looks amazing in the shower dripping wet for me. " he grinned " darling he's never going to understand. " he said and kissed her lips " does that feel right to you … or this .." he said moving to her neck " or what about this " he said kissing down her throat and to her chest.

She closed her eyes feeling his lips on hers, she kissed him back lovingly, sighing as his kisses wander down. His flirtatious manner was certainly a contrast to the more serious conversations they had been having. She blushed slightly at his words and the trail of kisses down her neck, chest, and beyond. "Draco" she whispered, her voice a mixture of amusement and affection, "as much as I appreciate your compliments and attention. We don't want to get carried away here in the middle of the woods, do we?" She looked at him with a weak playful smile as she enjoyed his closeness, her fingers gently running through his hair. "It does feel right. absolutely" Hermione added

A primal instinct came out in him and he managed to lay her down along the rocks as he kissed down her body running his tongue down her smooth skin as he stopped at her navel. It drove him crazy that she was trying to see her ex even for conversational purposes. He stopped hearing her words and looked up at her knowing she was right they couldn't do this here. It wasn't right and it wasn't fair to her. Not the way he was feeling right now. He sat up a little and hovered over her his nose just inches from hers as he stared into her eyes. " no we don't want to get carried away .." he said getting of her. " I'll let you see him. You're right you two need to talk. I understand that. " he said taking a deep breath and calming himself down. " I think I'm just trying to give you something to remember .. to come back to. To want to come back to " he clarified. Part of him was scared she wouldn't come back.

Hermione was caught off guard by the sudden shift in the atmosphere. One moment they were engaged in playful banter, and the next, things had taken a much more intense turn. She watched as Draco moved over her, his actions and words conveying a deep desire. She felt shiver down her spine and she sighed softly as her own desire grew more by his action. But then he stopped, and she saw the internal struggle in his eyes. hear breath slightly heavier from the sudden suprise, he could feel her warm breath on his lips when their noses touched. She looked a bit concerned when he got off her and she slowly leaned up, holding herself on her ellbows as her gace remained on him. ".. Draco?" she asked quietly. Hermione slowly sat up again, her eyes still on him "Draco," she said, her voice soft and sincere, "I know you're trying to give me something to hold onto, and I do appreciate it. But you're already the person I want to come back to. I've never felt this way before, and I promise you, I'm not going anywhere. You mean so much to me."

" I trust you " he said nodding " it's okay I get you. You two have a lot of history. I understand that. I'm sure he does miss you and wants you back. Could you at least call him Weasel. For me?" He asked smirking a little and kissed her lips sweetly to calm her down a little. He backed off because he knew he could wind up hurting her the way he was feeling right now and he didn't want to do that. " just come home to me after. Tell me everything. Well , shower first and get his scent off of you then come to bed and tell me everything " he said half joking.

Hermione chuckled softly at Draco's request to call Ron "Weasel." She knew it was his way of lightening the mood and showing that he understood her feelings. His kiss helped ease her worries, and she appreciated his understanding. She even had to laugh when he expected her to take a shower first after talking to Ron. But his demeanor just a moment ago got her thinking. She didn't want him to worry. Hermione leaned for another kiss. It was a long kiss this time before she slowly pulled back. Her eyes focused in his " I don't have to go and see him if you dont want me to Draco"

He kissed her back passionately as ever. " it's okay. You have to. Closure and all. " he said and nodded letting her know he truly did understand. He wouldn't take that moment away from her. " I love you very much Hermione. Don't forget that. " he said kissing her again pulling her a little closer and gently and lovingly holding her as he calmed down a bit. He nuzzled her neck and kissed her shoulders letting out a sigh. He knew she must have misunderstood his actions just now. He would never hurt her. He just wanted her .. craved her. He wanted to make her remember where she belonged. With him and no one else. He never felt like this with anyone and the thought of losing her .. he knew it wasn't true but even for a second it could be. It drove him mad.

Hermione felt the depth of Draco's emotions through his words and actions. She knew that he truly cared for her, and that his feelings were intense and genuine. "I love you " she whispered, her voice filled with sincerity. Then kissed him back when he pulled her closer "You mean so much to me, and I want to be with you. You're the one who's changed my life, who's made me see things differently." Her eyes shut and she tilted her head a little when he kissed her shoulder. His lips on her skin and the sigh that escaped his lips really made her weak. She sighed as well, her breath hitched. She was longing for him and her desire for him would never stop.

He kissed her passionately sliding his tongue into her mouth placing his hand on her face his thumb around her ear and his fingers on the back of her head. He loved her with everything he had left. He never felt like this about anyone in his entire life. It was intense and he didn't know what to do with those feelings. He pulled back slowly and kissed her forehead then the top of her head letting her breathe. He already knew he would be pacing the house until she came home knowing she was with Ron. But he would have something special waiting for her just to remind her how much he truly loved her.

Draco's kiss was filled with the intensity of his emotions, and Hermione responded with equal passion, feeling their connection grow even stronger in that moment. She held onto him tightly, her heart racing as their lips met and their breaths mingled. She could sense his inner turmoil, his fear of losing her, and she wanted to reassure him that she wasn't going anywhere. When he pulled back and kissed her forehead, she smiled up at him, her fingers gently tracing the contours of his face. "I'll be back before you know it," she said softly, her eyes locked with his.

He smiled a bit looking down at her meeting her gaze " I know you will " he smiled as he looked at him " it will still feel like an eternity with you gone. " he kissed her once more a little softer this time keeping his arms tightly around her. Draco had never felt this jealous about anything in his life. It was something new to him and he didn't know to respond to it. He just wanted to give her an intense orgasm before she left. And that was wrong. It was out of his own insecurities and that wasn't fair to her. " how much time do you need ?" He asked curiously wanting to know how long she would be gone.

She kissed him back just as softly and nuzzled his nose with hers. When he asked about the time she needed, she hesitated for a moment before responding, "I'm not sure, honestly.." Her gaze switched between his eyes as if she was trying to read his thoughts while telling him how long she would stay away. "It might take a few hours to talk things out and catch up. But i know the twins and Ginny. They won't let me go right away " Hermione sighed a little and bit her lip as she thought "Maybe one or two days? " she gently placed her hand on his cheek "I'll miss you too, but it's important that I have this conversation with Ron or else it will just never end i guess..."

" two days ?" He echoes and nodded a bit like it was letting the information process in his brain. " The twins and Ginny .. and Ron .. yea you're definitely taking a shower before you come back to bed. Too many weasels all over you. " he kissed her hand looking her in the eyes " I know baby. You need to do this. I know that. It won't end if you don't. Do I at least get one more night with you ?" He asked wondering if she would leave in the morning.

Hermione smiled gently at Draco's reaction and nodded, her fingers softly brushing his cheek. "Of course, you'll get one more night with me. I wouldn't leave without spending that time together." She leaned in and kissed his lips softly. "I was thinking about leaving in two or three days but i think it would be easier if i get that out of the way as soon as possible" She sighed and rested her head against his shoulder "I will leave tomorrow " Hermiones gaze remained in his, watching every expression he does just to know how he feels. She held his hand and gave it a reassuring squeeze. "And don't worry, I'll definitely take a shower before I come back to bed. Just for you." She chuckled, trying to lighten the mood a bit.

Draco kept calling them weasels hoping he had some influence over Hermione by now and it might slip out when she tells Ron off. Oh how Draco would love to witness that exchange. He also knew Hermione didn't have it in her to be that rude to someone that was once her friend. He had to let that one go. " it's best if you go in the morning " he said in agreement. " although I would really hate to watch you leave that early. " he smirked a little " kiss me before you go .. deal?"

Draco's request brought a soft smile to Hermione's lips. "Deal," she said with a gentle nod. She leaned in and kissed him, a tender yet passionate kiss that conveyed her feelings without the need for words. After they pulled away, she sat on his lap, her body facing his direction. she looked into his eyes with sincerity. "I promise, I'll be back as soon as I can" Hermione showered his face with soft kisses and wrapped her arms around his neck

He pulled back a little to let herself reposition her body on his lap. He kissed her again and nodded " I know you will baby. And I'll have something waiting for you when you return. Just to let you know I was thinking about you the entire time you were gone " he laughed a little as she placed kisses all over his face and neck. " I believe you darling. Really I do. I know you will come back to me. "

She continued to pepper soft kisses on his skin, her lips trailing along his jawline and then down to his collarbone. "I can't wait to see what you have waiting for me," she murmured while taking in his scent, her voice a gentle caress against his skin. She lifted her head to meet his gaze, her eyes filled with the same devotion she felt "You've changed my life in ways I never imagined"

" just a little something waiting for you my love " he smiled and tilted his head to the side as she kissed his neck " mmmm .. you really are amazing baby. Absolutely incredible " he said rubbing her back sliding his hand underneath her shirt to feel her bare skin. " I'm glad to hear you say that. I feel the same way for you. I never felt like this with anyone before. I didn't know that was possible. "

Hermione's breath hitched as his hand slid under her shirt,. She leaned into his caress, savoring the sensation of his warm hand against her skin. "I'm so grateful that we found each other, Draco" she whispered. She tilted her head to look up at him, her eyes locking onto his. Her hands slowly running up to his shoulder. Gently massaging him , making sure he relaxes. The sun was slowly setting, which caused the sky to look more pink reddish time to time.

He leaned into her a bit more as she massaged his shoulders. It did feel really good. Which made this all the more difficult to let her go. " we should go home. Get the horses and head back .." he said " we can watch the sunset when you come home. " he said kissing her lips softly as he picked her up in his arms and got up on his feet and carried her back to where they left the horses.

Hermione sighed softly as she felt his lips on hers again, cherishing every touch. When he mentioned going home , she nodded in agreement. "yes lets go back" she replied, her fingers gently brushing against his cheek. As he scooped her up into his arms, she wrapped her arms around his neck and nestled herself against him. She felt safe and loved in his embrace, and she couldn't wait to spend more time with him, even though the upcoming separation loomed over them. Once they reached the horses, Hermione carefully lowered herself back onto the ground.

He set her down in her feet and held her hand for a moment playing with her fingers with a smile on his face. " you wanna walk back .. or easier to ride ?" He asked as he untied Dawson from the tree tugged on the reins a little to get the horse to follow him in a trot for a few moment to get the legs moving again.

Hermione smiled as she stood by his side, her fingers intertwining with his. She considered his question for a moment but got interrupted by the sound of wings. The young witch gazed up in the sky just for a second. Noticing a confused owl that seemed to be a eurasian scops Owl. The way it struggled flying straight Hermione could only imagine it to be Rons Owl was just a matter of time for a owl to arrive, but she didn't want Draco to notice , knowing how he felt about ron . Her body tensed a little and she quickly looked over to the horses "I think riding back would be nice. Plus, I wouldn't mind spending a bit more time with Macy," she replied with a smile and gave him a quick kiss before sitting up on Macy It "Lets go " she chuckled softly

He hadn't notice the owls struggling to fly above them. He just saw Hermione. He kissed her back " I think Macy likes you too. I knew she would " he smiled and got back on Dawson he gave a slight kick to the sides telling Dawson to go back before it got dark. He made sure that Hermione was close behind him and that Macy was keeping up with them just fine. He had them go at a slightly faster pace than what they did to get to the lake. He wanted to get back before dark just to have as much time as he could with the love of his life.

The ride back was slightly faster, with the horses moving steadily along the familiar path. Hermione enjoyed the feeling of the wind on her face and the rhythmic movement of Macy beneath her. She kept her gaze on Draco, admiring the way he handled Dawson with ease. As they rode, she took in the fading sunlight and the way the colors of the sky shifted. It was a peaceful ride, and the closeness to Draco made her heart feel full. Hermione tried to ignore the Owl that was following them. When they finally arrived back at the stable area, she dismounted Macy and caressed her gently "Thank you for trusting me you beautiful angel" She smiled at Macy then turned to look at Draco waiting for him to get back into the manor with her.

He lead them back to the stables and got the horses situated for the evening with enough food to last them till morning and got them locked up for the night. He took the saddle off and hung back on the side of the stall and closed the door and locked it walked back to Hermione. " I told you you would enjoy today " he said smiled reaching for her hand lacing his fingers with hers. " did you have fun?" He asked her walking out of the stable and locked up for the night before heading back inside the manor.

She watched him with admiration as he effortlessly handled the tasks, clearly comfortable and at ease in his surroundings. As they walked back toward the manor, she smiled at his question. "I had an amazing time. Today was more than I could have hoped for. Thank you for sharing this part of your world with me." She squeezed his hand gently, her heart feeling warm with affection for him. She almost forgot about the owl but suddenly close before she managed to enter the Manor, Pigwidgeon flew deeper and dropped the letter infront of her. She came to an abrupt halt and stared at the letter lying on the ground. Quickly bending down to pick it up she wanted to put it in her pocket but then quickly noticed that there was no pocket. "Of course... matter of time.. right?"

Draco smiled walking back with her hearing that she had a fabulous time today. " good. There's plenty more where that came from. We can do this all over again every night if you want " he hardly noticed the owl until they were just feet from the door and he noticed the letter fall at Hermione's feet. He looked up at the sky to see this tiny little owl that was clearly struggling to fly. It was a bit funny to say the least. " hmm .. you have a stalker my darling. A teeny tiny feathered confused stalker " then it clicked where the owl came from " hmm .. that's just creepy "

"poor little thing. It looks like it had quite the journey to find us" she said quietly and looked at the owl who already made his way back home. Hermione looked up and watched the owl fly away. She couldn't help but chuckle at the Owl really had a struggle. She then looked down at the letter in her hands, already knowing from who it was. She didnt open it yet. Hermione looked up at draco and raised a brow " A owl... almost everyday" She rolled her eyes at that and made her way inside the manor. still holding Dracos Hand

He smirked and raised an eye brow at her " read the letter Hermione " he said mimicking her and how she had wanted him to open up all the unread letters that were stuffed in a drawer. " that's different darling. Maybe need tighter security around here if that fur ball found you so easily. " he had an idea of who the letter was from. " seriously it's okay. You can read it. I'll leave you alone for privacy " he told her and kissed her lips first before walking inside knowing she wasn't far behind.

She sighed as he mimicked her, but couldn't help but smile at his expression. Her gaze returned to the letter when he told her to read it. As he mentioned giving her some privacy, she raised an eyebrow. Before she could say anything, she felt Draco's lips on hers and reciprocated the kiss. She remembered his openness when she urged him to read her letter. "I'll read it in the room" she said and followed him. Once in the room, she left the letter on the bed before going to the bathroom to freshen up. She returned in her underwear and climbed onto the bed. taking a deep breath as she took the letter again

okay .." he said looking over his shoulder at her as she walked inside the manor and followed him upstairs to the bedroom. He just stared at the letter laying in her spot in the bed. He did have some of his own curiosity of what the letter would read. Did Ron want her back ? Of course he did she was amazing! Or was an it apology letter as well with the line of I want you back forgive me blah blah blah. He could only guess. He wouldn't dare open it without her. He heard the door to the bathroom open as she returned in just her underwear. His heart skipped a beat as he looked her up and down. " damn .. I really can't let you leave like that. " he got back into bed when she did , only when she did.

Draco's reaction made Hermione blush slightly, but she couldn't help but feel a surge of confidence as he looked at her. She slipped back into bed, feeling his warmth beside her. His words made her chuckle softly. " Don't worry. He will never see me like this.. not even in the next life" she smiled softly, leaning in to kiss him softly. She reached for her pinned up hair and let it down. Her long waves cascaded gently over her shoulders. Hermione then opened the letter slowly. Of course it was a letter from Ron, she could tell by the weird writing. " He is begging me for a talk, he doesnt want to lose me.. " Hermione rolled her eyes and look up at the ceiling, a bit annoyed then back at the letter "He says sorry for how he was acting and that he would change that he deserves a last chance..."

He watched her as she let her hair down , the natural waves fall down to her shoulders. He looked her up and down a few times and wrapped his arm around her pulling her close to his side. He didn't say much as she read parts of the letter out loud. He breathed a laughed " you already lost her .. deal with it. You were never good enough for her anyway " Draco said basically responding to the letter. " it's funnier if you don't respond love. Make him wait. Stay here with me" he said trying to entice her.

She leaned against him a little when he pulled her closer. Hermione chuckled at Draco's response, appreciating his straightforwardness and the way he brushed off the letter. His suggestion to make Ron wait and stay with him made her smile softly. She leaned in and pressed a gentle kiss to his lips. "You know, that's not a bad idea. He could wait a little longer " she said quietly, while her eyes continued reading. Most of the things that was written stayed unspoken. It was things Draco for sure didn't want to hear. Her gaze still on the letter she took a deep breath when she came to the part where Ron told her how much he loves her and how much he wants her back. The plans he had, Hermione turned the old pergament around as she continued flying over the lines. The last part was about moments they had. Ron brought up old good memories, he knew exactly how to pull her into thoughts. The friendship they all had in the past was something they can never forget and which always made them think immediately. her expression seemed to freeze for a moment. She let go of the Letter, letting it fall onto the bed, Hermione leaned back and let herself fall on the big pillow behind her. She stared at the ceiling. "If i let him wait... he will just continue with these letters.."

He watched her as she continued to read the letter. He could only imagine what it had said , he knew she only told him parts and that was fine. He knew there was years of history there he witnessed some of it over the years. Draco always knew Ron wasn't good enough for Hermione it's why he had tried to cut in over the years. Try to steal Hermione away and let see what she was missing. He just didn't think it would actually work or that they would quickly fall in love but he wouldn't have it any other way. " as much as I want to keep you here even for a few more hours .. you need to go see him. I'm going to hate it every hour you're away but you need this. You need the closure. Tell him the truth. All of it " he said kissing her cheek " it's okay. I'll be here waiting for you. I'll try to keep busy until you get back. Maybe contact my mother and take her out for the day. Just to keep my mind occupied. Of course I'll tell her about you. Do it the right way. See if she wants to join us for dinner one night. To meet you and get to know you. What do you think of that?"

She sighed and pulled the blanket over herself, hiding completely underneath it after he kissed her cheek. Hermione really didn't want this. She hated it, only the thought of looking into Rons eyes made her feel sick. "you're right, I need to see Ron. I need to have that conversation, get some closure, and tell him the truth. It's the right thing to do," she mumbled underneath the blanket and remained there for a while. she than sat up again and took the letter to read the very last part where Ron confessed all the feelings he was feeling. "I think that's a wonderful idea," she replied with a genuine smile when Draco mentioned his mother. "I'd love to meet your mother properly and get to know her. I'm sure she'll be just as interesting as you are," she added while starring at the paper. Hermione handed him the letter, she only found it fair for him to be able to read if he wanted to, after all he also gave her permission to read Lucius. " I don't wanna go yet... He can wait till tomorrow.." " I'll set something up with my mother then. Spend the day with her. Tell her all about you and how amazing you are. She's going to love you in time. Honestly she already kinda knows about you just from school so you're not a total stranger. It's a start. " he said with a smirk. " I couldn't shut up about you with her. So she kinda already knows but now I can make it official and just remind her of you. " he said and took the letter from her hands and just held it between his finger keeping his eyes on her. " darling this is different.. " he said shaking his head , he knew he let her in and told her too much too much and let her see the letter from Lucius but that was different that was a family thing and Hermione was apart of that now. " fine .. maybe just a scan. " he said going through it quickly reading only parts he wanted to see and comprehend. Most of it the memories from days at school. It made sense how it all started and how it all ended. He could tell Ron had regrets and really did care about Hermione. " well too bad he screwed up. He should have known better " he said with a smirk looking back at her. He was quite proud of himself for winning over Hermione's heart. To the day he dies he would never understand how but Draco was very proud to have Hermione as his girl and he didn't want to hide her from the world.

Hermione smiled softly at Draco's words about telling his mother. "I'm looking forward to meeting her, and I'm sure I'll manage to impress her somehow," she replied, teasing him with a playful smile. As he took the letter from her and scanned through it, she watched him closely. When he looked back at her and commented about Ron's mistakes, she looked deep into his eyes. "Well, he did have his chances, but some things just aren't meant to be. And I'm grateful for that because it brought me to you," she said sincerely, Then slowly got up from the bed. leaning over to take back the letter before she walked up to the chimney where the fire was burning. Her gaze focused on the fire for a moment before she threw the letter into it. Immediately, it burned, and quickly, nothing was left of it.

He handed the letter back to her and watched her carefully as she got up from the bed. " where are you going?" He asked wondering for a moment if she was trying to leave now. He arched an eye brow watching her walk to the chimney and toss the letter into the fire. Within seconds it was ash. " hmm … look at you. " he said rather impressed with her for doing that so easily. It was just a letter but it was what it represented, he knew then that she was really fully and completely his. " I gotta admit that was sexy "

Hermione turned back to Draco with a satisfied smile after watching the letter burn to ash in the fire. His surprised and impressed reaction made her chuckle softly. "Well, I figured it was time to let go of it already even tho the final conversation will happen tomorrow" she said. She walked back to the bed, crawling back onto it and settling beside him. "You see, you have nothing to worry about. No reminders of the past, just us and the future," she said, leaning in to kiss him softly. "And yes, maybe I added a little extra flair to the whole thing," she teased, grinning at him with a mischievous twinkle in her eyes. But her grin slightly faded "I wonder how he is going to react"
