Hermione Granger had a feeling that she might be Head Girl one day. She never expected who the Head Boy might be, though. Of course, it had to be the snitch Draco Malfoy. That brat. Well, now he has seemed to change.
*There is a second book in this...
Maybe it was his cologne, or the soft tapping of his feet, unlike Ron's stomps.
He put his hand on my shoulder.
I opened my eyes.
"Draco." I said.
"Hi sweetie. It's okay. I'm here now." He said, comforting me.
"I only pretended to pass out so that Ron would go away." I said.
"I know. I watched the whole ordeal. I'm so sorry, Hermione." Draco said.
"I don't know what has happened to Ron. He used to be so nice..." I said, sad at what Ron has become.
Draco nodded.
Thankfully, Draco began to untie my hands and ankles.
He finished quickly.
I stretched out my stiff arms and legs.
Draco picked me up gingerly.
"Come on. Let's get you back to Madam Pomfrey." Draco said, walking out the door.
I nodded, comforted.
"I think that you reversed in age. I seem to be always carrying you like a baby!" Draco joked.
I laughed quietly.
He continued such talk until we got back to the hospital wing.
He opened the doors, me still in his arms.
"Madam Pomfrey, here she is." He said.
Madam Pomfrey emerged from the back.
"Goodness, where were you?!" Madam Pomfrey asked.
Draco nodded at me to tell her what happened.
"Ron came and took me." I said, hesitantly.
"Did he do any damage?" She asked.
I shook my head.
"Well, then, I don't have anything to do with her. You can take her back to her common room. Preferably the Head's room, since its locked." Madam Pomfrey said to Draco.
He nodded.
"I'll take her back with me." He said.
"Alright, then. Have a good night." Madam Pomfrey.
Draco carried me out of the hospital.
He set me down on the ground.
"Can you stand?" He asked me.
I nodded.
We walked back to the common room slowly.
"Here, sleep with me. You'll stay safe." He said, opening the door to my room.
"Ok." I said, yawning, glad to know that I would be safe for the night.
We climbed into Draco's bed together.
"I love you, Hermione." Draco said.
"I love you too, Draco." I said back.
If Draco said anything else, I didn't hear.
I was soon fast asleep.
*the next morning*
I woke with a start.
I sat up.
I spun around, not realizing where I was.
I heard a chuckle from behind me.
I gasped and spun around.
I sighed. It was only Draco.
"I'm sorry, Hermione. I didn't mean to scare you." He said.
"It's okay." I said.
"What day is it again?" He asked.
"Wednesday, I think." I said.
He sat up, squinting.
I then realized that the room was flooded with light.
"You wouldn't happen to have a pair of the things that muggles call sunglissis, would you?" He said.
I laughed.
"They're called sunglasses" I said. "And yes, I do have a pair. I'll be right back." I said, going to get them.
I returned with one of the three pairs that I owned. I chose the ones that were the most girly.
They had pink sequins and were in the shape of hearts.
Draco stared at them.
"Why in the world do you own these?" He asked.
I laughed.
"They were a gift from my parents from when I was around 7 years old." I said.
"Well, let's try out them." He said, chuckling.
Draco put on the sunglasses.
