He is the one (a dramiome sequel)

Chapter Five

Luna's dress

Draco's POV

Me and Blaise were sitting down at our table, he insisted on sitting somewhere with a perfect view of the doors to the Great Hall, he was devouring a piece of cake and I was taking small drinks from a cup of butterbeer when I saw Hermione, Brown, Potter and Alex walk in. When I saw Hermione in her red and gold dress, her hair curled, her make-up professionally done and her hand tucked gently into the curve of her brother's elbow made my heart do flips.

"Blaise...blaise..." I hit the arm of the wizard next to me "Blaise!" I never lost sight of Hermione, my eyes tracking her around the room

"What...oh.." he noticed that Hermione, like always, has captured my attention. He quickly glanced at me and then looked back at her "She looks nice"

"She looks gorgeous" I couldn't take my eyes off of her. She looked like a goddess.

It took a few minutes for Blaise to finally give into the silence and broken it "Are you just gonna sit there and stare at her like some creepy stalker ex-boyfriend or..." he continued even when I glared at him "are you gonna go talk to her?"

"I am gonna..." I looked from Hermione to his face and sighed, giving into temptation "...talk to her..." a flashy smile appeared on Blaise's face

"Awesome good luck, have fun, don't do anything stupid, don't lose her and you look amazing so don't fidget and dwell" He shouted-whispered in my ear and he pulled me out of my chair and gave me a not so gently push towards Hermione Granger.

I cursed him under my breath and made my way to the Gryffindor princess. As she realized I was coming near her, her friends and brother kinda just disappeared from her side, but soon all that I could see was her. Her dress, her hair, her eyes, the fluid, graceful movement of her fingers as she curls them into a loose fist against her sides, her lashes whispering against her eyes. When I finally reached her she opened her mouth as if to say something, but then apparently thought better of it because she closed her mouth. "Hermione, I...you....wow..." Idiot.

She rolled her eyes and took a step away from me, I'm guessing as a sign that she was still upset with me "What do you want, Draco?" her voice came out like a whisper

"Hermione, I know we had an argument...." I reached for her hand

"It wasn't an argument or a lover's quarrel Draco!" Her voice thrashed out harshly "It was a break up"

"Hermione!" I was shocked. She was always so patient and understanding especially with this veela stuff, I wish she would let me do the same for her.

"What do you want me to say Draco? You're the one who said that you weren't sure if you still love me. You're the one who said a Gryffindor and a Slytherin couldn't be together" she hissed

"I know and I'm sorry" I grabbed her hand before she could pull away

She gave me this cold, distant look "Sorry works when you break something or when you lie, sorry doesn't work when you play with someone's emotions" Her voice was cold, but if you knew her well enough you'd know that she was trying hard not to break into pieces

"Hermione...please..." I tightened my grip on her hand "I made a mistake"

"You're right. You did make a mistake, and that mistake was playing with the heart of Alex's sister, how would he react to that?" Zack came up, standing next to Hermione. Almost immediately I wanted to strangle him.

"Alex isn't apart of this and neither are you" I hissed to Zack

I watched Hermione remove her hand from mine and take his arm which issued a low growl from me "You're not a veela anymore Draco! You don't own me!" 

"Hermione!" I was utterly shocked, I knew I didn't own her, no one did

"Draco, just..." that's when the lights went out and I grabbed Hermione, pulling her close to me, surprising me when she didn't object just only moved a couple of inches away, but still close to me.

When the lights came on, Caleb was standing there and he had Luna Lovegood by the hair. She was struggling to get free, but Caleb was a vampire with the strength of a vampire so it was of no use to struggle. I heard Hermione suck in a breath and realized she was trying to keep control of her vampire self. "Hermione..." I whisper

"Luna!"She broke free of my grasp and joined, Potter, Weasley, and Longbottom

"Well, well a party! I do love parties!" He turned his grin and attention to Hermione "I am very disappointed that I didn't receive an invitation, my beautiful fledgling"

"What are you doing here, vampire?" Potter spoke up, moving to block his view of Hermione

"I have come to lay claim to what's rightfully mine! See in my culture, a vampire who creates a newborn becomes their sire, yes a newborn can live without their sire, but soon they will get cravings to be around the one who created them. So I have come to take Hermione to the people she belongs with" He grinned and held his free hand out "Hermione, dearest, come, I shall take you home"

All eyes were on Hermione, but her eyes were on the vampire who was offering her a new life. "Why should I go with you?" She called out, gently pushing Potter away from her 

He sighed "You of all people would ask that. Well Hermione, the truth is, I'm going to become head of my...our clan and I would like you to join me, as my queen" He took a step closer to her, dragging Lovegood alone with him, ignoring her yelp of pain "Or of course I could always turn this. Her pale skin and her pale platinum hair, yes she will make a beautiful vampire...don't you think?" He pulled Lovegood up to him, his arm wrapped around her waist, resting on the small of her back. His other hand brushed her hair away from her neck. If I didn't know he was a vampire, it would have looked like a couple having an intimate moment, but then his fangs appeared and he pierced her neck with them. Lovegood fell limp after a few minutes the sleeves of her old-fashioned, yet very beautifully made modern dress brushing the floor and her hair whispering against the exposed part of her back.

He only had a couple of mouthfuls before Hermione called out "Alright! Alright, I'll go with you! Just leave Luna alone!" her voice rang out loud and true. She stood up straight and squared her shoulders "I shall go with you and be crowned queen"

Caleb smiled and released Luna, who fell to the ground, his grin was ghastly with the ravenclaw's blood painting his mouth. He wiped the blood away and held his hand out for  Hermione "A wonderful choice my dear" He glanced at Longbottom "yes, yes you may have the other girl" He indicated to Lovegood and Longbottom flew to her side, picking her up bridal style "Hermione, love, we have our wedding ceremony and then your coronation" he held his hand out, but this time Hermione took it

"I would like to have my coronation here. At Hogwarts." her voice held a tone of a queen

"As you wish" He grinned and pulled Hermione next to him, his hand claiming the small of her back "My queen"
