Draco PoV:
I went outside to make breakfast for us, today I was going to show my passion and love for.....
Quidditch!
Merlin I know she hates flying but I want to teach her, show her something which I'm so passionate and determined about. Did I know she was going to totally hate it, Yeah, but hey what can you do.
I drank my coffee before putting on my Quidditch kit and went into the room with some coffee and waffles with strawberries. She would need them after I told her.
"Thank you Draco." She got up and game me a smile as I waited for her to put some of it in her mouth. Once she had taken a bite I had seized the opportunity to tell her without the verbal abuse, I have tactics. Why do people think I'm amazing at Quidditch for because I'm a genius.
"We're going flying today princess." I saw her mouth turn into a pout and she was about to speak but she remembered she had good in her mouth. Well let's just say I forgot about one other type of abuse as she gave me a hard slap on the arm. "Ow Hermione! Hey you'll like it trust me."
She had finally swallowed before getting out of bed passing me the plate which she had quickly devoured.
"I'm not flying, I hate it!" I interrupted her feeling smug as ever I was going to get her to fly and ply quidditch.
"Well I love it soo" she faced me as she tied her hair back and went to go get changed.
"No, final answer."
"Come on princess pleaseee, you don't have to actually fly in your own you can fly with me." She turned to face me as she began doing her makeup after she had put on her clothes.
"I can't I'm going out." How come she never told me of this plan. Who was she going out with? What was she going to do? Maybe she made it all up? Did she still not forgive me after the date?
I must've been frowning because she came and held my hand and held it to her cheek. I think my face is burning up, Merlin she looks so adorable. The words were barely able to come out. "S-So what you going to be doing?"
"I'm going to go meet up with Harry and Ron. " ok when she told me this you need to understand that I was irritated because I knew she wasn't doing this. How the fuck I know that is because Potter had come over asking what cologne Pansy liked because he was taking her out all day today.
She was either lying on just going to go hang with the Weasel and just her. God did she like him, I mean they used to date and are both supposed to get married but still. What am I thinking shes here right now showing me affection. She's probably planning something.
So I followed along. "Well have a nice time, I'll see you later in the evening I guess." I watched her for a couple more seconds before placing a light kiss on her forehead and rushed away. Leaving her there to stand on her own.

Hermione PoV:
I feel like such a dumb bitch as he pressed a kiss to my forehead making me buzz with delight while I was gong to meet Ron for coffee. I have no idea why we agreed to but we did, we felt our friendship was drifting after everything. The messy breakup, the law, the time away from each other, just everything and here I was sneaking away to meet him while I was walking away from the man who is trying to make and effort with me best he can.

I had arrived and had went to go sit in a booth ordering two butter beers and then Ron had arrived. "Thanks for coming Ron." He gave me a smile before sitting across me.
"You too Mione. How's the ferret?" He gave me a glum smile, he looked sad, lonely even. I avoided the question and asked about Luna. He gave a deep sigh "Not great. I just- I feel nothing for her Hermione. I want to be happy and love her but I keep thinking about somebody else." He placed his hand on mine and I should've pulled away but I didn't. The hurt in his eyes made me want to comfort him.
"Ron-" he got up and tried to cup my face and lean forward but I stopped him and that's when I saw Harry and Pansy standing right in front of us. Merlin what was I going to do? They would believe that I didn't want anything to do with this right?
I shoved Ron off yelling at him "Make an effort for fucking once and then you maybe will." And I went to go rush after them but I didn't see them.
So I went back home and dreaded that they would tell Draco but I know they would.

Draco PoV:
I don't think I would have ever been in the situation of Potter eve giving me a hug but here I was. Listening to the news of Hermione and Ron. To all the people who have been cheated on before I hope they know that the person who did that to you did you a favour from wasting a whole lot of damn time on them.
But still it stung, we never really were together, were we?
I walked away and went to the field to fly. It was dark out becaue it was early December and cold but the heat of anger I was feeling defied the cold.

Hermione PoV:
I knew they had told him when I rushed to the common room to see Harry come up to my face and just look at me disappointed. "Hermione you should've seen the hurt in his face how could you-?" I interrupted him "where is he?! Please someone tell me!" Blaise had told me he was probably on the field and I ran past Ron and I pushed down the feeling of wanting to strangle him.

There I saw Draco in the cold air flying around before just sitting in his broom staring into the night sky. He saw me and zoomed down, jumping off of his broom. I quickly began to explain before he jsut placed a finger on my lips.
"I understand I don't make you happy. Go be with Weasley if he makes you happy." I feel so confused how is he okay with all this.
"Draco you need to understand that he tried to kiss me!" He turned to face me and for once in my life I saw Draco cry.
"You know I have been abandoned all my life and I've always accepted it but how come for you I just want to forgive you and let you run back into my arms." I walked closer towards him and we sat down int he grass as I cradled him.
"Tell me Hermione that even though you might've kissed him because you wanted to or you came back and told me you killed someone I'd still want you to come back to me each and every time, why?" I think my heart cracked a little more than it could handle and then I began to sob into his chest and he placed his chin on my head.
"Maybe you don't want to be alone anymore Draco, that's why I feel I want you to stay." I managed to say for my sons.
"Or maybe because we like each other Hermione." I faced him and he faced me as we embraced. He hugged me tight and so did I. And then he whispered into my ear "let's leave it at maybe, the word maybe never hurt anybody.
And it was true, it never did and so we sat there for a while before we went it out room and fell asleep. For now we were tired and were to talk in the morning but for now maybe everything Would be alright, just maybe.
