The Assistant ✔️

46-"Maybe"

Hermione frowned and smacked her forehead with her hands over and over, growling in anger as she sucked in a breath, and popped a pill in her mouth, before washing it down with a glass of still water.

She cursed under her breath and got up to change into another set of clothes, before Jack came walking through with his hair windswept, tail coat flashing through at his speed, clip chart in hand and a dazzling smile on his face.

"How is my favourite patient?" He cheerily Called, a twinkle in his eye and he bounced on the balls of his feet.

"I'm fine,"she lied, smiling at him and opening her arms, engulfing him in a hug.

"How are you?"

"Good, Good"he grinned.

Hermione beamed and sat down on her bed, before pulling on a mis patched sock and tiring up her bushy hair into a loose pony tail.

"So, How was your day off yesterday, you said you where going out with friends?"
He smiled, sitting down next to her, but not too close and not too far.

"It was fine, we didn't really hang out much, I just walked away and was by myself until.."she paused, taking in a deep breath and gave a uncertain grin.

"Go on, you can tell me,"He smiled reassuringly.

"I saw Draco . . we . . um,"she raised her eyebrows at him, as if To motion the kissing, (like he could mind read!)

"Oh right,"He began, his cheerful expression haltering slightly, but still gave off a happy atmosphere.

"Yes, and I asked him some questions.. why he did what he did . ."she hesitated and lay back in the bed with a frustrated groan, covering her face with her hands.

"I don't know what to do!"Called her muffled voice.

Jack sighed and patted her knee, furrowing his eyebrows, and gulping slowly.

"Well . . what do you feel to him?"He asked, sadness etched in his voice.

"I . . I miss him deeply. And I want to be with him all the time, I love him,"She continued.

Jack but his lip and closed his eyes, before taking a deep breath and giving her a smile as she took her hands from her face and looked at him.

"But at the same time I want to kill him, and . . I just keep getting used and used and then I forgive them . . And it happens again . ."
She sat up slowly, and sighed.

"You should tell him how you feel . . If he is a good guy, he will understand, and make it up to you. ."

Hermione nodded, uncertainty blurring her brown orbs, and let out a shaky breath, before embracing Jack in a tight hug.

"Maybe. . "She whispered, looking up at the window, and seeing Draco standing, with a small smile on his face.

She looked down sadly and nestled her head into Jack's shoulder, and letting out another long sigh.
"I just don't know anymore . .what if he's like all the others, when I forgive them, they're ok, but it happens again when they promised it wouldn't . ."

Jack looked sadly at the walls and rubbed her back, slowly.
"If you tell him this, he will understand,"

"I don't think so . . you don't know Draco, he has such a temper sometimes . ."
Hermione frowned and pulled back, looking into Jacks face with a small smile.
"Well, if you need anything, I'll always be here for you,"
She smirked, "thank you . ."
