A New Beginning[On Hold]

Chapter 5

Draco's POV:

I couldn't believe that Ron would do that to Hermione.

She's too perfect, and now she thinks that she's ruined because of her scars.

I'm so lucky to have her.

Even if she doesn't think she's good enough for me, I think Tue same of me for her.

Now, this house isn't empty.

I have the one that I thought I lost.

Hermione's POV:

I was sitting in the bedroom Draco showed me.

It was beautiful.

It had a golden chandelier.

The bed was big enough for three.

It was the most beautiful bedroom I have ever seen.

However, I still don't think that I deserve it.

I have my own home, if it even counts as a house.

It's a two-room apartment filled with grime and dirt.

I had always wished for something better, but this is too much.

I had come in here to put in my belongings, but that was done in a couple of minutes.

I laid down on the bed, suddenly exhausted.

All I had was a photo album of my mum and dad, my wand, a small makeup bag, and my clothes.

All of my other possessions were lost in a fire.

My old house, a small cottage, was set on fire by someone.

I barely made it out with my life.

I had tried to save my new kitten, Sara, but I never found her.

In my haste, I grabbed only my wand, photo album, and two pairs of clothes.

My makeup bag was in my muggle car, so that was saved.

I rushed out of the house as it collapsed behind me in a spout of flames.

I heard a sound that I will never forget.

I heard my kitten, Sara, screaming as she was burned alive.

That noise will never leave me.

Tears began to stream down my face.

I lapsed into sleep, absorbed in my thoughts.

Draco's POV:

I quietly knocked on Hermione's door.

She didn't answer.

I opened the door quietly.

I smiled to myself.

Hermione was fast asleep on her bed.

I walked over to her.

I realized something.

Her face was stained with tears.

I gently shook her awake.

"Huh?" She asked, opening one eye.

She immediately smiled when she saw me.

"I have a surprise for you." I said.

She sat up.

"What is it?" She asked.

I chuckled.

"If I tell you, it'll ruin the surprise." I said.

Hermione's POV:

I walked with Draco out to his kitchen.

There was a box on the floor.

I looked at him.

He smiled.

"Go ahead. Open it." He said.

I knelt down.

I heard a soft scratching sound from inside the box.

I opened the top and gasped.

A little bunny looked up at me.

She was black, white, and grey.

She had a little mane.

I picked her up.

She was tiny.

I immediately loved her with all my heart.

I looked up at Draco.

"I love her! Thank you, Draco!" I said, standing up.

He smiled.

"You're welcome. I thought that you might want a little furry friend to cuddle with." He said.

I carefully placed the bunny on the table and crushed Draco in a hug.

"I love you, Draco." I said.

"I love you too, Hermione."

The amazingly cute bunny above is actually mine.

Her name is Lilly.

She's adorable.

NUMBERONEGEEKFORLIFE, Mistypokemon, and pyroisnthere can vouch for her awesomeness.

Anyway, I hope that you like this update.

Lots of love and Potter vibes, Wylah
