Shy Love ( Dramione )

Chapter 13

 "Wow, look who's already going out on a date!" Ginny grinned. I saw Hermione fluster.

I stood up and held on to Hermione, "Well, we don't have time, it's already 3, don't tell I glared at both of them, "we're going. Will be back before midnight"

...

"Hermione! Help me!", I yelled, as I had a bunch of things in my hands, including the umbrella while Hermione skipped along.

She giggled, "alright, it's fine, I'll carry something", as she held the basket and mat.

"Ugh magic makes life so much easier", I groaned, wearing my sunglasses now.

"Well, then you wouldn't be here if you'd be using magic. Muggle places are like this", Hermione shrugged.

I hate it when she's correct. Which is most of the time. She grinned at me. I slid my arm around her waist as we walked down the path.

"Wow, it's so... empty", Hermione exclaimed. "It's usually... very".

I smirked, "well that's a good thing, right? Or do you want the whole beach filled with people everywhere?". Hermione shook her head as I laughed.

We reached a spot where the ocean was visible from a close view, and there were fewer people around.

I opened the umbrella and stuck it into the sand while Hermione spread the mat and placed the basket on it.

"So", I smirked, as I turned towards Hermione as she stood up.

"So?", she whispered. She was wearing a bright coral ruched side swimsuit, with a white long open dress shirt. Meanwhile, I was wearing a pair of shorts.

"Oh look, who's looking hot today", I smirked, raising an eyebrow. Hermione gaped at me and quickly wrapped her white long dress shirt around her, flustered.

"I was joking!", I cried, laughing, as I grabbed her waist and twirled her to my chest.

Hermione pouted, rolling her eyes. I captured her lips and kissed her. Taking in her lovely almond smell.

"Dra-", she opened her mouth but she didn't get the chance to do so. Finally, I let go and smirked at a scarlet Hermione.

"Yes, babe?"

She furrowed her eyebrows, reddened cheeks, and a hint of a smile. "Okay, can we go swimming now?"

"Yeah sure, baby girl", I smirked.

... Time had passed and the sun was setting slowly.

"Phew! That was fun!", Hermione gasped, as she got out of the water and sat down on the mat. The sun was setting across the ocean.

I came to sit next to her. She leaned my head on my shoulder. The sun was setting slowly as we watched it together in silence.

"It's beautiful", I whispered. Hermione nodded slowly.

"You're so special to me, Draco", Hermione whispered, as a small tear slid down her cheek.

"And so are you, love", I whispered back.

"But what if I lose you", her voice broke off. "What if- Just like how Voldemort killed my parents a-and so many people... Wha-What if he takes you from me?"

I straightened her up and stared into her eyes. "You are always with me. You're stuck with me!", I smirked as she gave a sad chuckle, "and... Even if Voldemort does...Do that... We'll die together", I finished.

Hermione nodded gravely.

"Don't be sad, we're having a great time... Let's eat now and then go for a walk. We better be heading back to Hogwarts too in a while", I suggested.

Meanwhile at Hogwarts

Ron POV

I had just entered the common room, meeting Ginny and Harry, who were talking.

"What are you looking for, Ron?", Ginny snarled.

"More like, who", I snarled back. Ginny rose her chin in question and knew there was something up. Harry's eyebrows knitted out.

Ever since I had confessed to Hermione and...Kissed her, these two were treating me like- Argh! Whatever.

" Where's Hermione", I demanded. Harry gave me a disgusted look while Ginny replied. "I don't know. But why?"

"I need to talk to her", I retorted.

"Talk?", Ginny sneered. "Listen. What you did last time was-"

"I need to talk to her, you idiot. Where is she?"

Ginny furrowed his eyebrow and then smirked, "She's somewhere... I don't know... But most probably with Malfoy".

Malfoy. My ears turned scarlet while my face became bright red with anger. Yes, it was visible which was what made Harry speak up,

"Ron", he said, firmly. "Hermione's with Malfoy now. She loves him, and he loves her. They're soulmates. Your soulmate is Lavender. Now, go away".

"Shut up", I growled curtly. Ginny rolled her eyes.

"You do know that Malfoy won't let you live if you reach any harm to Hermione!", Harry warned. "And that's if he gets to you before me. I don't care if you're my brother-in-law and best friend" he growled. 

Ginny nodded, approvingly. 

"I'm not gonna reach her any harm!", I protested. 

"Yeah. Right", Ginny said, narrowing her eyes. 

I stared at them, frowning. "Where did she go", I repeated. 

"AGH, she went to the beach with Malfoy!", Ginny burst out, exasperatedly. "Let her live in peace, it's just a date!", she shouted. Harry patted her arm and calmed her down. A bit. 

"So", I began, grimly. "She went off on a date, eh? With that animal?"

"What is YOUR problem!", Ginny screamed. 

"What is yours?", I snarled. 

"SHE'S MY BEST FRIEND. I CARE ABOUT HER HAPPINESS. GET LOST AND LIVE WITH LAVENDER. I feel sorry for her, for having a husband like you!"

"Ginny. Just mind your own business. Leave me and 'Mion-"

"DON'T YOU DARE CALL HER THAT! YOU'RE NOT WORTH IT", Ginny yelled, red-faced.  

"You've got Harry, mind your business. And keep it down, do you want the whole school to awaken?", I hissed back. 

Ginny took a few steps towards me and stabbed her index finger into my chest, while she breathed heavily, "If you dare, to even touch Hermione; Know that I will hunt you down myself and murder you. Mark my words, Ronald Weasely", and with that, she grabbed Harry's hand and scuttled up the stairs.
