Shy Love ( Dramione )

Chapter 11

I put my hand on her chin for her to look up at me and stroked her cheeks.

"But, I'm serious... I won't let a Weaselbee or anybody touch you, you're mine", as I gave her a bear hug, ruffling her hair as she leaned in.

How... I used to bully her friends all the time years ago, and still do... of course, she was very annoyed and never really liked me because of that, even though I never actually said something rude to her... but how?

How did this happen, I thought as I stared out of the window while ruffling Hermione's hair, and breathing in her soft, chocolate-almond smell.

How did I ever achieve such a girl like this?

"Babe?", I asked, softly as I tucked her hair behind her ear. She looked up.

"How did I ever... how? How did I ever get you? How did I ever achieve you? You don't deserve me...", I whispered, voice creaking.

Hermione turned around and hugged me as she looked up at me.

"Draco..." she took a deep breath, "I had a crush on you ever since 1st year", she confessed, as she bit her lip.

Shock washed over me, but I let her continue, "I never actually loved Ron, even though he was my best friend, along with Harry. I knew he had feelings for me... from the first day, but I never had feelings for him"

"He was just a friend", she continued, "But when the marriage law came out, and when I found out you're my soulmate, I was surprised, yes... but, I think my friends were even more shocked. Considering all the enmity between you...And Harry. You were never theyre favorite person", she said while looking up at me.

I nodded, understanding. "But I never did. I knew you were something different to the core. Yes you're a bit rude at times, and yes you can be annoying, but everyone's like that, right? Even me. But since I found out you were my soulmate, my life changed... Changed so much... in a good way"

"And it all comes back to this point... we deserve each other. You were never bad. And the Voldemort part", she stared down at her shoes, "that was because you had no other choice", she finished.

I stared down at her. A tear escaped from my eyes.

"Now, don't cry", she said, gently, wiping my tears with her soft fingers, as she bore her large eyes at my face. 

"Oh come here!", I gushed out, as I hugged her tight and crashed my lips into hers.
