Sitting on the window seat of the Hogwarts Express looking at the greens, I was lost in my own world...
"Seven years.. Seven years passed since I've known her.. I was known as one of the mean kids at Hogwarts. I've bullied Harry Potter for years, disarmed Professor Dumbledore... and now I couldn't even go and talk to her whom I have liked since our first year.
Ughh...What's wrong with me?!
I've let her go once but I'm not letting her go this time.
Fate has given me another chance to make things right. I can't waste this last chance this time.."

As I was lost in my own world, my bubble was popped by a familiar voice,it was my best friend, Blaise Zabini, calling me for minutes.
"Draco...Draco....HELLO...EARTH TO DRACO!!"
"Sorry, I zoned out" I said trying to recall what he said a few minutes earlier.
"Thinking about her once again?"
"Yes" I said " I made a huge mistake by being mean to her..."
"Yes, you were very mean towards her" said Blaise .
"I know.. I jus-"
"In my opinion what you did was right, she is a muggleborn after all they were considered blood traitors but the Darklord's fall has changed many perspectives including mine also" Suddenly a shrill voice interrupted mine and Blaise's conversation, I realized that it was none other than my ex bestfriend Pansy Parkinson.

"Why do u even like that mudblo-"
Before she even finished that sentence I interrupted her and said
"Its none of your business Pansy".
"Oh hush you.." she said in a sarcastic manner "you and her.. in your dreams lover boy" she scoffed.

I was about to get back at her but Blaise gave me a "please don't" look,
and whispered "Let her be, she doesn't know how it feels".
His eyes were almost filled with tears of pain. You see just like me Blaise has a crush on girl from another house and with different Blood status, her name is Susan Bones, but he messed up with her and broke her heart. He still regrets his actions and is trying to make up for his mistakes.
I'm really praying to God that he and Susan gets together once again, Blaise might have been a bad boy just like me but the battle changed us, and now we realize how much pain we especially I, have given to others.

"In these two years" I said with a hopeful look on my face "we will makeup for our mistakes"
"Yeah...we can't mess up this time."
"Its time to change" Blaise said.
"Its time to start a new journey" I said.
"Its Time For A New Start" we both said giving each other a sad and hopefull smile.

After a few moments we started to talk about Quidditch, Ministry and how Hogwarts would look like after repairing the damages caused by the battle.
After our little conversation I again got distracted by her, thinking about how cruel I was to all, especially to her. Suddenly my brain started to picturize her face, her beautiful brown eyes which held a thousand of bruises which I gave her, not physically but mentally. Her gorgeous brown curly hair. Her beautiful smile. All covering the pain she was holding inside her.
She is the most strongest person I've ever met.
Just because of this blood prejudice I've hurt her so badly, I don't think that she will forgive me anytime soon.
But this time whatever happens I won't let her go, I'll never leave her alone and will never let anyone hurt a single hair of her.
She is mine, my another half.

As I was lost in my thoughts I didn't realise that we have already reached Hogwarts.
I was still on the train, but I could clearly see Hagrid and Professor Flitwick who were standing at the corner of station waving at all the students.
One by one everyone in our compartment started to unload their baggage and leave the train. Blaise and I were the last ones to leave. Everyone was greeting each other and hugging each other and Blaise was searching Susan, I on the other was walking straight towards the carriages but my eyes were searching for only one person, Hermione.
Harry had forgiven me for my cruelty towards him and others, because he had understood that, that time I didn't actually had any choice. Harry explained all those to Ron, his bestfriend everything that I had gone through, so Ron has forgiven me grimly although. But the only person whose forgiveness I was pining for was hers.

Finally after a few minutes I heard the music to my ears, her beautiful laughter... she was walking with her friends a bit far away. I didn't want to face her so soon so i continued my walk at a slow pace behind them.

I climbed up into a carriage along with Blaise by my side. The carriages were lined up in two rows, I looked around to see some familiar faces and spotted Harry, Ginny, Hermione, Luna and Neville on a carriage right on our side. Harry Caught me starring at them especially her, he gave me a "it's okay, everything is going to be fine" look.
After a few moments, from the corner of my eyes I could see someone starring at me I turned around and our eyes met, it was her, Hermione, she was staring at me as well. When our eyes met I tried to shot a smile at her but within a second she turned away turning into a fresh ripped tomato, it was her, My princess. So not to make things more awkward I turned away, but the whole ride I could feel her eyes on me.
"Don't be a statue" Blaise said rolling his eyes "atleast smile or wave at her "
"Um.. O-okay" I surely was hesitating but I had to do something to cut the awkwardness out "I hope things don't get worse".
I turned around towards her and smiled, she again blushed but this time she gave a awkward smile.

Hermione's POV

"After we got down from the train, my eyes were searching only for one person, Draco Malfoy. I've known him since our first year, he was very mean to me, he was one of the bullies who had called my MUDBLOOD,had given me a scar that is still streched in my veins. I didn't like him from the beginning but something changed during our third year. I punched him in the face because he was insulting Hagrid, but after that everytime he bullied me, I always felt he was regretting it and always found a box of chocolate frog in my bag the very same day.
Whenever I saw him I had noticed the pain in his eyes, from that moment I knew he never wanted to be mean or cruel to anyone, I knew he was being forced. I wanted to pull him out of the dark but because of his father and the blood prejudices I couldn't. Everytime we bumped into each other I could see his pain, his regrets for his mistakes and even a bit of longing in his beautiful ice grey eyes. Although I was not sure about the longing part.
It didn't take long enough for me to fall for this bad guy with a good heart, everyone considered him as the boy who made the wrong choices but for me I considered him a the boy who didn't have any choice.
Even though Harry and Ron had forgiven him and pretends that they didn't, I heard the whole conversation between them. And I truly believe that he has changed and he regrets his past decisions.
Our fate has given us another chance to start a new journey and make things right this time. Images of him started to float in my head, his gorgeous platinum blonde hair, his beautiful ice grey eyes, his longing for me in his eyes.. everything.
I will not mess up this time. I'm not letting anyone control him anymore.
He is mine, my another half. "
