Back To School (Drarry Fanfic)

The end of old things

Hermione's POV

I am filled with glee as I race back to our bedroom. I run as fast as I physically can and am practically wheezing by the time I arrive at our chambers. I slam the door open and tackle Pansy. She looks at me with a questioning look and I don't wait for her to speak.

"He is awake. He woke up!" Her expression changes to one of happiness and I immediately lean down to kiss her. The kiss is short as I climb off her and tell her to grab the book we found the spell in.

"I will meet you in the room. I have to go tell Ron." Her face falls at that but she nods. I notice the change in attitude so I walk back to her, kissing her cheek. I whisper in her ear, "I forgot to ask, would you like to be my girlfriend?" I pull back and hand her the white carnation I dropped on the floor whilst tackling her.

She looks up at me and smiles. "I thought you would never ask. I can't believe you got my a white carnation. Do you know what this symbolizes?"

I nod and giggle nervously. "I read a book on it once, it stands for innocence and pure love." I mumble out the last part as my cheeks heat up.

I kiss her cheek again, "Anyway, I need to get Ron. Harry wants to see him and me. You too. Ill meet you there." With that I turn around, still scarlet from the previous comments and begin to rush to the Gryffindor Common Room.

I yell the password and the Fat Lady swings out looking grumpy. I walk through without bothering to apologize. I run to the boy's dorm and bang loudly on the door. In a few short moments Ron opens it looking tired. It is only 8am on a Sunday. I roll my eyes at him anyway and begin to speak, "Ron, Harry woke up. Come on."

His eyes nearly pop out of his head as he turns around to quickly change. I wait for him to join me before we begin to run again. Back to the hospital wing.

When I arrive Pansy is there. I smile at her as she joins us walking towards his room. I enter first engulfing him in a hug before he gets the chance to speak. Ron follows behind me and begins hugging us both. I glance at Pansy and notice she is staring at the floor awkwardly. I maneuver my way out of the hug and stand next to her. When Ron finally lets go Harry begins to speak. "Hey guys," his voice scratchy from the lack of use, "how long have I been out?"

Pansy speaks up, "Nearly two weeks. We had to get them to push back Draco's trial an extra week."

He looks at her for the first time. "What do you mean Draco's trial? What happened while I was out?"

Over the next hour we give him the run down of everything happening with Draco. We also explain the spell we have discovered and show him where we found it.

As Pansy and Harry engage in a conversation about Draco, Ron asks me to step into the hall with him.

We step out and he closes the door. He looks at me. "I am so sorry, Hermione. I wasn't bloody thinking normally when I broke up with you and said those things. I didn't mean it. I was just stressed and upset. Please forgive me?"

"I forgive you, but it doesn't mean what you did was alright. You weren't the only one who was stressed and it was terribly wrong of you to take it out on me." I say, looking him in the eye to show my seriousness.

"Of course. So does this mean we are back together?" He looks at me with so much hope. My heart breaks slightly as I say my next words,

"No. We aren't. I have something I need to tell you." He nods for me to continue. "I am pansexual."

He looks at me confused, "What? What does that matter? I still love you, no matter your sexuality. If you fancy girls too, that is fine. Why can't we date?" I sigh, I was hoping he would guess I was dating someone.

"Let's go back in the room, I need to tell Harry too, anyway." We walk back in the room. I am astounded at the sight in front of me.

Harry Potter being held by Pansy Parkinson as he cries on her shoulder as she assures him everything will be okay. The door closes behind us and they both look up.

After about ten minutes Harry has calmed down and asked us what happened when we left. I explain that we broke up the same day he was put into a temporary coma. He looks shocked but allows me to continue. "I am pansexual," I pause for his reaction but he just nods. "and Ron just asked if I would date him again. I am currently dating someone else now though. As of today, actually." I glance at everyone's faces.

Pansy is smiling encouragingly, Ron looks confused, and Harry has a knowing look on his face. Pansy probably already told him. "I am dating Pansy." I dart my eyes to everyone's faces. Pansy walks to me and places an arm around my waist. Ron looks infuriated. Harry seems proud of himself.

"You are telling me, you turned me down for a Slimy Slytherin?" Ron nearly shouts. I notice Harry and Pansy both flinch but I just place my arm around Pansy's shoulders.

"Ex-Slytherin is what you mean. She is a Ravenclaw now. If you plan to treat her this way, or me this way, you can leave now. Harry just woke up and we should be celebrating, not shouting at one another." I say as calmly as possible.

"Maybe I will leave." He walks out and I blink back the tears in my eyes. Not now. I put on my best smile and look at Harry, "I can practice the spell tonight with Pansy so we will be good for the hearing on Wednesday. I am glad you have woken but you need your rest. We will celebrate tomorrow." I hug him tightly. We exchange goodbyes and Pansy and I walk back to our room.

We enter and I break down, eventually crying myself to sleep as Pansy holds me tightly promising to wake me in a few hours to practice the spell.

Okay, I know Ron is being a git at the moment, but I promise I won't ruin his character completely. He will redeem himself.
