An Unexpected Love- A Dramione Love Story

Chapter 23- Reminders

** I need some advice for the chapter name... Should it be called Reminders OR Will the Contest go on??? Let me know after you read it!!! Thank you!

Hermione's POV

     Draco has been unconscious for almost 2 days now. Due to his accident, there has been talk of cancelling the contest. Parents have been mailing Professor McGonagall non-stop and at this point, I don't even know how many howlers I have heard. I walk into the hospital wing and see Madam Pomfrey by Draco's bed. "How is he?" I ask. "Same as he has been. Unfortunately, if he doesn't wake up within the next day or so I'm afraid he will be sent to St. Mungos" I nod solemnly and sit down next to Draco's bed. "I just wish you would wake up already. It's very boring around the common room and even the castle has seemed to have gone silent." I say quietly. After a couple minutes, I look at the clock on the wall, 12:00 p.m. Time for lunch. I sigh and as I get up, a hand grabs my wrist. I look down to see Draco's eyes finally open.

Draco's POV

     I finally gain semi-consciousness and the first thing I hear is Hermione's voice. "It's very quiet around the common room and even the castle has seemed to have gone silent." I just really want to get up and hug her but my body will not seem to move. Hermione sighs and I hear her get up. 'NO!' My mind screams. My eyes finally open and I grab her wrist weakly. She stops and looks down at her wrist and then into my eyes. "DRACO!" She yells. Tears flow down her cheeks. I reach up and wipe them away. "Why are you crying 'Mione?" I say with a weak smile. She holds on to my hand and only finally let's go when Madam Pomfrey shoos her away. "How are you feeling, Mr. Malfoy?" She asks when Hermione leaves. "I feel like a troll hit me with his club." I say with a small laugh. She shakes her head at me and hands me pain medicine to take. "You should be out of here by the end of the week." I nod and ask, feeling a bit stupid, "What day is it?" "Monday. You were unconscious for about 2 days, 1 more and you would've been sent to St. Mungos." I nod and after Madam Pomfrey scolds me for an hour, I fall asleep.

Hermione's POV

     I walk into to the great hall feeling better than I have in days. I find Ginny right away and notice that Ron isn't by her. I take a quick sweep of the great hall and see Pansy practically on top of him at the Slytherin table. My anger flares and instead of sitting down with Ginny, I storm out of the great hall.

Draco's POV

     I awake to the sound of the hospital wing's doors opening and yelling coming from whoever opened it. I sit up a bit to get a better view and I pale when I see who is walking towards me. "Hello, Draco." My father says when he reaches me. "Mr. Malfoy! He is healing! No one should be here to visit him!" Professor McGonagall says with Madam Pomfrey nodding right behind her. "Oh I'm sure Poppy wouldn't mind if I talked to my son for a bit, now would you Poppy?" He replies with a glint in his eyes. "Oh, no I wouldn't mind. Minerva and I will be waiting right outside the door for when you are done." Madam Pomfrey says in a bank voice. Professor McGonagall sighs and heads out the door with Madam Pomfrey right behind her.           
     "Now, what did I say about you getting too close to that mud blood? " My father hisses. "You never said I couldn't mess with her feelings. I can make her love me one minute and then scoring my name the next only to want me again. Over and over I can do this. Isn't this what you would want, father?" I say with hatred dripping from my voice. He nods and takes a moment. "That is a perfect idea. While you are at it, make it so the girl Weasley can't stand her either. Ron is already occupied so he wouldn't care much for what is going on with that mud blood." I nod, my face pale and my throat dry. "Well, goodbye my son and don't forget what happens if you fail me." My father says as he walks out the door.

Hermione's POV

     Rage. Anger. Hatred. All of it is filling me until I can't take it anymore. 'Yes, use that anger. Build it up. USE it.' The voice in my head says. As if I am watching and not controlling myself, I listen to the voice and I disappear. 'Perfect. Now, I want you to go into the head masters office and find the eternal stone.' Unable to do anything, I nod and turn towards the head masters office.
