I'm (Not) Yours

(9)

The day was sunny in London and Draco had taken advantage of it. He and Hermione were jogging in the park. He had discarded his shirt and his sweat made his skin glisten

He knew he looked magnificent

Hermione on the other hand...

She was wheezing like a smoker

He turned and continued to jog backwards

"Come on Granger, you sound like a smoker"

Hermione flicked him off and stopped

He stopped beside her and she leaned onto her knees

"You chase dragons for a living and here you are sounding like you've never ran a day in your life"

"For the record...I do not chase dragons...and second...I have been in an office for a bloody year" she panted

"And you haven't hit the gym, you've let yourself go" he smirked

"You can shove that smirk up your—"

A girl who looked fresh out of secondary school came up to them. She shot Hermione a glare before turning to Draco and batting her eyelashes. She showed her cleavage to him and Draco saw Hermione raise an eyebrow in question

"Have I seen you around?" The girl asked

"Erm..."

"Of course I have, I would never forget someone as...attractive as you" she purred

Draco coughed awkwardly as he shot Hermione a look of panic

Draco almost hexed the girl when she placed a hand on his forearm

"I don't...I think you have me mixed up with another bloke" Draco tried to let her down easy

"No, I don't think so" she smiled "what do you say we head out? I used to be the head cheerleader and I'm still very...flexible"

Hermione choked on her water and began to cough. She was laughing as well as drowning and Draco shot her a glare. The girl sneered at her

"What's so funny?" She sneered

Hermione composed herself and walked up to Draco. She placed a hand on her shoulder and against his better judgment, he admired her toned body still tensed from the exertion. The push-up bra amplified her breast and her abs glistened under the sun

When Hermione wasn't dying like a smoker, she looked hot

"It's funny that you're still trying even though he's clearly not interested" Hermione drawled, her eyes twinkled and Draco knew that the poor girl was in for it

"What are you? His girlfriend or something?" The girl spat

"Or something" Hermione shrugged

The girl huffed and turned to Draco once again

"I'm sure you want to be with someone more attractive" she smiled, trying to look innocent

Draco raised an eyebrow in question

"You're funny" Hermione giggled. Her hand on his shoulder began to trace along his neck and down his back, causing him to shiver and feel his eyes threatening to flutter close

"How so?" The girl questioned harshly

"That you think you're pretty, but I'm wondering how you look without twenty layers of makeup" Hermione shrugged innocently

"I'm not wearing any makeup" the girl spat

"Don't lie, sweetie, it causes lines" Hermione winked

The girl turned back to Draco

"Are you going to control this slag or something?" She spat

"I learned long ago that controlling my girlfriend resulted in my ego — and my balls — being busted" Draco shrugged

She growled and turned back to Hermione. Draco spotted a small glimpse of something in her eyes. He couldn't place it but he knew it wasn't anger

He knew how Granger looked angry and it wasn't it

He wondered if she was jealous

That thought made his basketball shorts a little tighter than he would like

"You want to go whore? let's go" the girl ordered, removing her earring

"I'm not going to fight you" Hermione scoffed, her hand dropped from his back and Draco almost whimpered out loud at the loss of her touch

What the bloody hell was happening to him?

"You scared?" The girl smirked

"No, I'm mature...but even if I did fight you...I would still win" Hermione shrugged

"Yeah? How so?"

Hermione walked up to the girl and smirked. Draco saw the famous Malfoy smirk on her face and instinctively reached for her hand, intertwining their fingers

The poor girl was doomed

"Because at the end of this jog, Draco's going to take me home and shag me into the mattress, and you're going to go home embarrassed because you bragged to your friends about your attractiveness but sadly couldn't deliver" Hermione pouted. She then winked and turned to leave

Taking Draco with her

"Is it bad that I want to shag you know?" Draco smirked, he saw her roll her eyes

"Please" she scoffed

"What, don't think you could handle it?" Draco challenged

She stopped walking and pressed her chest to his. Draco gulped as she tilted her head and made her eyes look innocent. But the fire in her golden browns told him that she was anything but

"I could handle it..." she murmured "the real question is if you can?"

She pushed up and kissed his neck. He groaned softly at feeling her whole body pressed against his

Suddenly, her warmth was gone and he opened his eyes to see her jogging away. Laughing at him while he stood around like a lost puppy

He growled and took off after her. She squealed as he wrapped his arms around her and hauled her up, pressing her back to his chest and dropping his head beside her ear

"If I can make you purr with a simple kiss...imagine what I could do if I shag you" Draco whispered huskily

Hermione was panting and Draco knew it wasn't because of the run

"Think about that" Draco smirked and placed her back on the ground. He continued his run and didn't look back to see if she had followed him

He was trying hard to get his emotions in check, slightly worried that he took it too far with that comment

But then he thought back to what she said and felt his blood rushing to his second head

It was a thin line that they had just explored. Their relationship was strictly platonic and anything else would just complicate it too much

It was his responsibility to keep it in his pants

He couldn't bear the thought of losing Hermione. Not after knowing what it was like to have her in his life like a friend

He couldn't go back to being strangers. She was too special to him. She was his friend and she was his confidant

She was one of the few constants in his life

And even thinking about losing her...

Made his day a whole lot dimmer
