-Hermione Granger-

"It's been almost 24 hours!! Why can't I go homeeee!" I shove his chest as he blocks me from leaving the library Draco was reading in.

"Because I don't want you to"

"Why don't you want me to" I push him again. Maybe anger will be the first thing I can stir up from him, I tend to bring that out of people when I be a bitch.

"I said, I just don't want you too"

"And I said, Why don't you want me to"

"Because, you're mine" I push him again and give him a flat look.

"I'm no ones"

"Yes you are, you're mine" Draco persists emotionlessly.

"I'm Not anyone's!!" I shout and push him. "You can't own me!!"

Shit he's he one making me mad now.

"Watch me"

I huff and go to slap him but he catches my hand and grabs my other.

"Didn't I say not to hit me"

"I don't take orders from you" I growl at him and he pulls me closer to him, and tightens his grip on my forearm.

Draco looks at both of my slightly bruised wrists and he looks up at me.

"I did that?"

"Yeah"

"Oh"

"Yeah 'oh'" I sass in annoyance. "Do you have any idea how hard it is to cover those and make up excuses for when people ask what happened"

"Well I didn't mean to"

"Mmm but you did it"

-couple hours later-

We are sitting across the table from each other and I set my utensils down, wiping my hands on the napkin.

"What did you mean when you said that I'm yours?" I ask carefully. Draco stops eating and looks up at me.

"I don't know"

"When people say that they mean that it's their girlfriend or boyfriend. But only people who have emotions have girlfriends and boyfriends" I look him dead in the eye and he doesn't even seemed bothered by what I say.

"Bull" he pauses and smirks. "Your my girlfriend."

"I can't be"

"Why can't you"

"Because, to be your girlfriend you actually have to have feelings for me." I say smartly and he rolls his eyes. "And I'm not your property"

"Then I guess we are fuck buddies" He shrugs and I groan.

"Why"

"Because I said so"

"What if I don't want to be your fuck buddy, what are you going to do about that"

Draco stands up from his seat and walks over to me in under a second, grabbing me from my chair.

"Girlfriend or Fuck Buddy" he tells me like it's my choice. I just stare him dead in the eyes, not saying anything or moving. "Answer me"

And I still don't. I can here the change in his voice so just push a littleeee more.

"Then leave" Draco let's go if my arms and they fall back down to my side. He steps back from me and I look at him with a soft look.

I WAS SO CLOSE

"No" I bite back at him with a sharp tone.

"Then choose"

"I can't make that discussion! If I'm your girlfriend I will be the only one returning feelings and I'll be the only one working towards this relationship! But if we're fuck buddies then all we will do is have sex and ignore each other! Then you'd go out with other girls and I don't know if I'm ok with that!!" I yell at him and he just looks at me blankly.

"And none of this makes sense to you because you don't care about anything and you don't have emotions and it sucks!!" I yell at him once again and he bites his lip, making me scrunch my face in disgust. "Why are you looking at me like that."

"You're hot when mad"

"God! Shut up!" I run my hand through my hair, feeling the venom of anger and annoyance still coursing through my veins.

Draco walks back over to me grabs my waist.

"Choose" He tells me but not so harsh this time. I look up into his eyes, searching for just the smallest bit of humanity in him but there is none.

"I can't" I step away from him this time and look down at my feet. "Thank you for lunch, but I'm going to go home now" I say softly and walk out of the room without looking back at him.

I grab my stuff that sits on one of the entry chairs and walk out of the mansion, breathing heavily, keeping tears from falling from my blurred eyes.

This should be affecting him, not me. He should be the one getting emotional and stressed about this, not me. But it is me. I don't want to fall for someone so easily. Especially someone who doesn't even feel for me, or feel in general.

But i promised that I wouldn't give up until I fixed it. I promised myself that I would help him. I promised that I would give up on him, Draco Malfoy, the emotionless bastard.

Who im already falling for...

And it sucks
