Chapter 6: Flashes

NOTES: There are flashes in here as you can tell by the title. Flashes as in images and scenes from the past so basically a flashback but from another's perspective. The flashes will be italisized and in paragraphs. Each paragraph is another year at Hogwarts. Thanks and enjoy. -Captain-Swan1

(Draco's POV)

I let the warm water pour down my neck and back as I leaned against the shower wall, thinking. I couldn't help but think about what I had overheard Ginny and Hermione talking about.

Did she really find me different in a good way? Or was she just saying that to get Ginny off of her case? I had a million questions zooming through my mind and I didn't know the answers to a single one. 

There were a million other things that I could be focusing on right now but they weren't there. The only thing that I could think about was her. She had forgotten everything about our pasts in those moments. I knew now that I wasn't the only one and that made me feel a little bit better about everything.

I couldn't figure out what that everything meant though. What could it possibly mean?

One thought kept resurfacing during my search to figure it out and that thought was something Pansy had said when I told her how I felt about Hermione during that fight.

"You love her." she said.

 I shook the thought away. No. I didn't love her. It was just something that happened and we both forgot what the past had brought us. That was it. There was nothing more to it. But then why did I feel so upset when when she called me arrogant and annoying? It hurt even worse though, when she said she could never be with someone like me unless she had to... which she did now.

I don't know why it hurt so much and it confused me to no end. "You love her." Pansy's voice said again.

 Nope. No way. Nuh uh. I shook my head and decided to finish showering. I turned around and noticed something near the drain. It was shiny. I leaned down to inspect it closer and saw that it was a golden necklace which curled over an emerald heart and had three small diamonds just above the curl. 

The necklace oddly reminded me of my own. I never wore jewelry but my mother loved it. She went out one day, and knowing my favorite color was red, got me a necklace with a ruby in it. I wore it to special occasions with the family, such as parties, gatherings, and just formal dinners. My mother loved to see me wearing it. That's the only reason I kept it. I loved seeing my mother happy and if wearing that necklace was one of the ways to do it, then that's what I was going to do.

No one knew about it though. It was sitting in the small little treasure chest in my bag. 

I realized that the necklace in front of me, must have belonged to Hermione. It must have fallen off when she took a shower earlier. I reached forward and tried to pick it up. An image flashed across my vision. It was of a young girl with bushy hair and I knew that it was Hermione. I dropped the necklace and fell backwards causing a loud thump.

"Are you okay in there?" Hermione asked. 

"I'm fine thanks." I yelled back.

 "Alright." she yelled.

I stayed sitting down and thought about what just  happened. When I saw the image, everything around me faded into white except that picture of her. I had a strange feeling too. Touching the necklace made me feel... secure. But there was something else too... I just couldn't place my finger on it.
