Love you Drake

Chapter 14

"Mione wait! Mione please stop!" Malfoy was running after her throughout the castle. What could have made her so angry? She needed him.

Hermione, for her part, did not slow down, did not look back, did not even listen to the voice that shouted her name over and over again as they ran through various cold corridors. She was broken. She did not want to see Ron again in her entire life. She ran so fast that she reached the shores of the black lake. She looked everywhere as if she were trying to find something or wanted to wake up from a horrible nightmare. When she saw that there was no way to escape or continue running, she collapsed on the ground crying inconsolably. Her cheeks were wet and her eyes were red. She felt like her heart was going to jump out of her chest. Granger was hugging her legs tightly and trembling. Draco, seeing her in such a state, slowly approached to the little ball that Hermione had turned into and crouched down. From one of his pockets he took out a handkerchief and sat down next to her.

"Mione?" Draco wanted to know what had happened, he didn't want to see the girl he liked like that. The girl he had fallen in love with.

When she had calmed down enough to lift her face, Malfoy gently took Hermione's chin and lifted it so that their faces were at the same height. With the white handkerchief he dried tear by tear until only he and she remained staring at each other.

"Hermione, what happened?"

"Veri-veritaserum..."

"What? What do you mean?"

"Ro... Weasley gave me Veritaserum to drink." At that moment her voice broke and she couldn't stop herself from crying once again. It hurt her heart to know that her ex-boyfriend had done such a thing to her. She pounced on Draco and hugged him while crying.

"Wow, calm down. Calm down Mione. Hey look at me" - he grabbed her by the shoulders and looked into her eyes - "Forget that Weasley, forget him, he's crazy enough to have hurt you. If he doesn't value you as you are and doesn't respect you, he doesn't really love you and... and..."

Hermione's eyes were so bright that Draco got lost in them. Did he love her? Yes, he did. He loved her more than anything in this world. She was his world. He didn't want to lose her for anything in the universe, he just wanted to be with her in good times and bad. At all times. Only for her. That was all his heart wanted to be with Granger. He wanted to tell her but he didn't know how.

"Draco"

"Yes Mione?"

"Do you think anyone will ever love me?"

"What? Of course. There's someone who loves you but can't tell you."

"Yeah, sure." she said with bitter irony- "Who?"

"Well..." At that moment he couldn't hold back any longer. He stood in front of her, put his hand on her neck, leaned in and kissed her. Hermione was surprised but did not pull away. She kissed him back. Slowly Hermione lay down on the soft grass next to the lake. Unbeknownst to her, she was lying down with Draco on top of her kissing her. What for a moment was a moment of desperation turned into a beautiful moment. Then, Draco separated from Hermione and lay down next to her.

"Umm, sorry?"

"Why, Drake?"

"I-I don't know." Hermione laughed and then sat down. Draco did the same and turned to look at her.

"I love you too Drake."

With that she kissed him again.
