After The Ball

The Second Trial

Hermione POV
I don't remember much if that day really just the end and the start.
So just before the trial was about to start I was desperately trying to find Draco but I didn't want to let into Ron it was him I was trying to find, he just thought I was looking for Harry but I had something important to tell him (Draco), I had to ask him what's going on because it's confusing me and I hate being confused. So I was kindly going to confront him and ask him what happened at the Yule Ball in which I already know how he would respond, 'Ew Granger you think me a Malfoy of all people would like you...you a filthy mudblood, never, your obviously desperate even that ugly Weasley won't take you' or something like that, but for some reason I had hope...hope he would tell me how much he likes me and never ever wants to go back to how he treated me before and how sorry he was...
Thinking it made me realise how sad and hopefully I sounded so I tried to suppress it and go watch Harry but then Professor McGonagall called me and Ron away for what it thought was a school related issue but so did I find out it was not. The next couple of hours went by in a hurry (considering I was paralysed), but waking up in the water, the freezing ice cold water was and will be one of the worst experiences of my life.
Later on that night I had found a note slipped in my robe pocket say only one sentence
'meet me, back corner of library, the dark one, 8 o'clock
-M'
I had no idea who it was but I did have a theory, I quickly left as it was 7:50, in a hurry I made it to the corner with only minutes to spare, a group of girls walk by looking at me and start to whispering, turn around immediately and start looking for a book it was about five minutes later and I realised I was not alone...not alone at all
A dark figure pokes their head out from behind a self,
"Who's their?" I say my voice shaking
I realise it is a guy he's slowing walking closer to me as I start to panic,
"If you don't tell me how you are...I will...I will...I...I have a book!" I shaking he can tell, he chuckles and the light finally hits his face and his beautiful sleek blond hair is revealed
"Draco! You scared me... why didn't you say it was you"
"It was funny watching you get scared, did you not figure out it was me aha... oh my gosh Hermione your the smartest girl in our year and you couldn't figure out was me, we having been doing this for the past week" he says laughing at me, I start to blush
"Shut up Draco why did you want to meet anyway, want to rub it my face I was a damsel in distress and was saved by 'The Victor Crum'" I say harshly, blushing even more
"Sorry"I say embarrassed
"Stop apologising you stupid girl, Granger I came to check if you were ok, Jesus do you not think I can care about you" I go even redder, he walks closer to me and I try to control my face I don't think it worked, I am standing against a wall so I have no where to go, he's getting closer till he stops body pressed against me our noses are practically touching, I can feel his warm breath against my face, I close my eyes and I hear him whisper
"Because you are horrible mistaken Granger"
I start to get all tingly inside and am filled white this warmth.
"I love you...I am incredibly, completely in love with you Hermione"
He rests his chin on the top of my head.
Before we hear a noice and immediately jump away from each other,
Tucking the hair behind my ear shyly
"I guess...I will she you tomorrow then"
Before I walk away silently
