Chapter 18

Draco

It had been a few weeks and Christmas passed. I had gotten her the Silver bracelet that looked exactly like her gold one, I got her a pair of earrings that she's been eyeing for a while and I also got her some new books.

I love getting Hermione things, whether it's out of no where, or for Christmas, but nothing can top the '103 Reasons Why I Love You.' That Hermione got me our first Christmas, I've read it every day since I've gotten it, and it lays inside my dresser.

Hermione had gotten me a new watch, which was absolutely beautiful and a silver snake to put in my house as decoration.

Currently I was helping Julia find a birthday present for her new boyfriend. Julia and I hang out sometimes and she always asks if I've told her or not and it's always the same answer, no. I also know that her and Hermione hang out sometimes too.

"What about this?" I asked holding up a broomstick and she scrunched up her nose and shook her head making me groan, I was growing bored shopping with her, I just wanted to see Hermione, who took an extra shift today.

"How are you and Hermione?" She asked as we walked out the shop and to another one.

"Fine I guess." I said with a shrug and she looked over at me quickly.

"What do you mean you guess? What happened?" She asked concern written all over her face.

"Nothing, we're great. We're just not together still." I said with a frown and she sighed.

"I just really want to tell her how I feel so bad." I groaned and she shook her head.

"Do you feel it?" She asked and I scoffed.

"Of course I do Jewel." I said rolling my eyes.

"I meant like when you're with her can you not contain it?" She asked and I huffed in frustration.

"Yeah I can contain it." I said crossing my arms.

"Then it's not the right time Draco. It needs to feel like when you're talking to her one word and you'll just blurt it out." She said and I frowned.

"I know that Julia, It feels like it'll never be the right time." I sighed, all I want is to be with her, and it's like if I keep on waiting she won't wait for me.

"The time will come." She said placing her hand on my shoulder and I sighed.

"I can't believe you're making me wait." I huffed and she laughed.

"Trust me, when it's the right time you'll feel like the wait was worth it." She smiled and dragged me into another shop.

"I'll believe it when i see it." I mumbled

When I got home from shopping with Julia all day, Hermione wasn't in the living room like she always is. I looked at the time and frowned. She should be back by now, she had a half day so she should have been back at lunch.

I walked up the stairs, wondering where she could be and walked in my room to find Hermione sleeping. Her hair was sprawled all over her pillow and she had her arms wrapped around my pillow. She was sleeping in the middle of the bed leaving me no space if I were to join her. Her usual frown was on her face but that was nothing unusual.

She looks so beautiful. I leaned against the door frame and smiled. I love coming home to her. She always makes my day complete. I walked slowly to the bed and sat down and placed my hand on her cheek. I traced patterns along her face and her frown slowly faded, her face relaxing and she now looked to be in a peaceful sleep.
