Chapter11

Hermione

I had woken up with a pounding headache. The last thing I remember was talking to Draco about his fight with Astoria and then everything went blank, I noticed I was wearing my Pajamas and my dress was neatly folded on the desk chair. I quickly used the pepperup potion that I had on my nightstand and it cured me quick. I got up from the bed and noticed a note on my desk, it was the familiar handwriting that gave me butterflies.

I hope you had a fun night, I made sure to get you home safe and changed into more comfortable clothes, thank you for listening to me last night, I still apologize for worrying you and having you leave your fun, I can't wait for Friday, please Owl me about having more than just Friday, I'd like to see you more
D.M

my heart raced as I thought about him being excited to see me tomorrow, I had called in sick for today because I knew I wouldn't want to go today. I really do hope I didn't embarrass myself, You did, plus he had to change your clothes like a baby, my thoughts said making me cringe. I quickly sent Draco a letter back thanking him for last night and apologizing as well for not fully being there when he needed her, and said that she would love to meet with him more than Friday and asked if Saturday was good because today, I had already made plans with someone.

That someone is a guy, Gabriel, that I met a few days ago and we had been hanging out since then, I felt bad for lying to Draco so I decided to tell him tomorrow. I noticed the time and quickly took a shower and changed into some proper clothes before leaving to meet up with Gabriel for lunch. I apperated to the restaurant and entered seeing Gabriel sitting in a booth, and looked over at me with a smile.

"Good to see you Hermione." he said as I sat in front of him, and he handed me a menu.

"Yeah." I said with a smile and he looked over his menu and a lady came and asked for our orders, once she left I played with the straw in my cup.

"I'm still sorry about leaving you last night." I said and he shrugged.

"It's fine, you seemed really worried about your friend, I would be too if they sent a patronus," He said and I nodded, Gabriel is a half blood wizard that came from America.

"Yeah." I nodded, we talked for a while but Its not as interesting as my conversations with Draco, we finished lunch and we apperated back to my house when my owl dropped the letter in my hand and I opened my door for her to go back in. He stood in front of me, just looking at me with a small smile.

"I was wondering, since we had been on some dates, would you like to be my girlfriend?" he asked politely and I smiled a nodded, he leaned closer to me and planted a kiss on my lips, I didn't feel anything from when he kissed me. It's not like how it felt when Draco kissed me for the first time. I felt bad for comparing him to Draco, but then again, I've compared every guy to him.

I pulled away from the kiss and he smiled, and just stood there as if i was supposed to invite him in, but I didn't want to, I wanted to read my letter from Draco and ask him if I could see him after Gabriel leaves so I can tell Draco about Gabriel.

"Well, I better get inside a feed my owl." I said awkwardly and he frowned and nodded.

"See you later Hermione." He said kissing my hand and apperated away as I walked into my flat. I quickly opened the letter seeing his fancy handwriting and replied back asking to him today, whenever he is free. I sent my owl on her way to find Draco, I sat on my couch in front of the telly and looked around, I didn't know what to do other than wait, so I turned on the telly and watched re-runs of Doctor Who.

My owl dropped Draco's letter in my lap and i smiled and quickly opened it and read it:

I'm free right now, i'm on my break come meet me at St. Mungo, I'll be outside waiting
~D.M

I set the letter down and fixed my hair and walked out of my flat and apperated right in front of St. Mungo, where I saw Draco, wearing his uniform which looked to be muggle scrubs, and I walked towards him as he smiled and gave me a hug.

"Hi Mione." he said pulling away from the hug, and brought me inside, we talked as he guided me towards a sitting room, where some healers were sitting around talking to their friends.

"I'm glad you agreed to see me on my break, it's been boring all day." He said and i laughed a little as he ran his hands through his messy hair.

"Well I'm glad I can make your day a little less boring." I said with a smile and he gave me such a sweet smile, and a house elf brought  it sent the butterflies in my stomach into a frenzy.

"So what did you do for lunch?" He asked and I bit my lip, I don't know why I was so nervous on telling him.

"I was out with a guy." I said trying not to cringe, and I notice his smile faltered, but continued on his face.

"Really? That's nice, are you dating?" He asked and i bit my lip and nodded.

"He's my boyfriend." I said and his shoulders slouched a bit and smiled still.

"That's so nice Hermione, What's his name?" he asked

"Gabriel." I said and he smiled and placed his hand on my shoulder and and squeezed it reassuringly.

"I'm happy for you Mione" He said with a smile, and he opened his mouth to say something but was interrupted by a frantic healer.

"Draco, we need your help its an emergency!" She said with fear in her eyes, Draco rolled his eyes and sighed.

"I can't even get a break." He said with a huff and looked at me with a frown.

"I'm sorry to cut things short Hermione, but this training healer is always a little frantic." He said as we both stood up.

"It's fine." I said with a smile and he hugged me tightly.

"I'll see you tomorrow." he whispered into my ear sending shivers down my spine and he pulled away.

"Okay." I said and he walked away towards the frantic girl, who speed walked away showing him where to go.

I walked out of the room and out of the hospital and apperated back to my flat.

Draco

After Hermione told me she had a boyfriend my heart sank. I was going to tell her that I wanted to be with her, that I have love her, but she has a boyfriend now, and I don't want to ruin anything with her, so i just have to be happy for her and hope for the best.

The training healer who said that there was an emergency was just over reacting, all i had to do to the patient was a simple healing spell and he would be on his merry way. the girl, Lola, is quite skittish and doesn't really do well under pressure but when i'm finished training her she would be on her way to the top.

Work ended and I apperated to my house and sighed, today was quite boring, I had to let Lola do all the work while I watched her, and made sure she was doing the right things. I took a shower while Sugar was making my dinner and her dinner as well, I liked when she would have dinner with me she is always interested in my day.

Dinner with Sugar was delicious as always and I was bored out of my mind, until I saw Hermione's Owl tap on the window to let her in, I smiled and opened the window and grabbed the letter as the owl flew away. I opened the letter and saw her elegant handwriting flow along the page.

Hello Draco, I hope you had a nice day at work, I just wanted to make sure that you're still up for tomorrow and Saturday, i'm excited to hear back
~Hermione

I smiled and quickly replied back with a yes and that I was excited to see her. It was nice that I'm getting to see her more than Friday, I was very happy to see her today while on my break. I really hoped that would be a regular thing, I like when she came and visited me.

I laid in bed thinking about Hermione like I always did and became sad remembering that she has a boyfriend now. This wouldn't have happened if you didn't forget to see her later that day I thought, cursing myself because I was right, if I had gone and seen her that night, we would still be together maybe even married and starting a family. I finally fell asleep late at night, thinking about having a family with Hermione, and how excited I was to see her for almost 3 days in a row, and I couldn't wait to see her in her Muggle clothes.
