Yule Ball

Chapter 2 - Your Best Friend

HELLO! I hope you enjoy my poor excuse for a romance!!!

DRACO'S P.O.V, HOSPITAL WING. 

As soon as I heard the news of Hermione fainting, I rushed to Madam Pomfrey to check on her.

"I need to see Hermione," I said. 

"She has recovered, but she still needs rest." Madam Pomfrey replied.

"It's urgent," I snapped.

"That does not change anything. You can tell her in about 30 minutes.

Also, why do you feel the urge to check on her? To see her hurt? Then I certainly won't allow it."

I started crying as I pictured her hurt. I wiped off my tears.

"I'm concerned."

"Oh......" She said as she finally realized what I meant.

"Five minutes." She grumbled.

Hermione'S P.O.V

There I was, sitting on the hospital bed. 

With a numbing potion, because I hit my head too hard. Nothing magic can't fix though.

I fainted in the hallway.

All because of my feelings....and a little bit of Malfoy flair, of course. 

I pondered on how I could have these feelings towards my childhood enemy. 

The one who called me mudblood several times. 

The one who I punched in third year. 

The one who unregretfully turned into a ferret.

Ha. Quite funny, that one. She was thinking of adopting a ferret and naming it Draco Jr.

I heard fast footsteps coming closer and closer.

Someone came rushing towards me. I couldn't see them clearly. The figure was blurred.

Then I could make out that it was a man. A Slytherin, because the inside of his robes were green. He had blond ha-OH MY GOODNESS.

It was him! DRACO MALFOY! A party went on in my head. 

HE CARES! HE CARES ABOUT YOU!

3RD PERSON P.O.V

Draco: Are you okay, Granger? 

"Why do youuu care, Djaco? ?" Hermione said, slurring her words, due to the numbing potion. Hiding her face to conceal her blush.

Draco then stated, "I'm concerned. I'm starting this new lifestyle called, "Not being an arrogant git for once," Granger.

Hermione: "No."

Draco looked worried. what was he doing wrong? "No, what?"

Hermione: "No, thas not my nam. Itz Hermione, not Granger.

Draco: "Why do you always insist on me calling you Hermione ever since last year?

Too late. She drifted off to sleep. He let out a small sigh.

Madam Pomfrey: OUT. NOW.

He followed her orders.

3RD PERSON POV, HOGWARTS GROUNDS.

Draco was sitting in a tree.

Harry and Ron were watching him.

Hermione was secretly watching them. Mostly Draco, though.

Harry: Draco, do you even like anything about us?

Draco: Yeah!

Ron: Sure, Malfoy.

Draco: I'm not bloody kidding. I like some things about you.

Ron: Fine, name one thing.

Draco: Your best friend, Hermione.

At that moment, he noticed Hermione behind the tree. Hermione blushed. Draco's eyes widened.

She ran away to avoid the awkwardness.

So that's it for the second chapter. Draco, you sneaky boi.

AH! One of my favorite Feltson images! Feltson for the WIN!
