Draco POV

I had sat down, mumbling non considerably, at Hermione. "I am sorry. This is confusing. Sometimes, I do not understand, so different, so sorry, not used to" I paused to take a breath and attempt to smolder my blush.

Hermione stood up. "Its really alright Draco! I- I appreciated your... company" She confessed, her courage withering by each word.

I took her hand, and stood up. I tried to put all my thoughts together. It was hard with this magnificent a girl infringement of me, waiting for my mouth to open and words to arise. I hesitated, but then, finally, spoke.

"Hermione, this is new to me. Bot knowing what to say, what to do, how to act. Everyday of my life was so planned out, so determined, the paths were carved for me, the dirt unearthed for my own feet. Such sureness, and certainty has denied me present. This, for me, is un walked upon ground"

I paused to gather myself.

"I love you. It has been a week, but an eternity. I treated you like did because what u feel with you I did not recognize. The strange pull, the magical magnetic force, I believed it was hate. I thought it was vermin, disgust to your blood status"

"Because even though my parents loved each other, they were not in love. They never showed affection. It was all about being death-eaters, work, blood status... me..... I never knew what real romantic love was like. But I felt it, and now I understand. Hermione Granger, will you be in love with me?"

I stopped and looked at her face she seemed about to cry. I pulled her into a hug. The room of requirement had turned into a drafty attic. I laid down on one of rafters, high above the ceiling, and pulled her up too.

I held her in my arms, and she laid on my chest. Now that I had said all there was to be said, there was nothing more to say. We lied in comfortable silence, until I closed my eyes and she whispered,

"Yes"
