Meant To Be

Completely forgetting the small quarrel she had with Draco last night, she greeted everyone she met on her way to her office. 

The only thing that reminded her of the quarrel is when she entered her office, the room was filled with roses and there stood in the middle is Draco Malfoy.

"So this is your way of saying sorry?"

"Look, I am so sorry about last night. I was also shocked that Astoria came to my house. She is nothing compared to you. You're the only girl I truly love, Hermione." He said and Hermione could see the sincerity in his eyes.

"Draco, I forgive you. I was just stressed out last night."

"I'm so glad that you have forgiven me." Draco exclaimed.

"Just don't keep secrets from me. How could we possibly last if we keep secrets from each other?" Hermione asked.

"You're right. That's why I want to take you out on a date. We would share our secrets with each other."

"That's so cool. Okay, I'm free tomorrow."

"I mean now."

"Now? But what about work?" She asked.

"I'm pretty sure, Katherine can do your job for one day, right?"

He smiled at Katherine and she nodded in agreement.

"Okay fine. " she said

Draco took her to a muggle park which surprised her since he was a pureblooded wizard.

"We're going to have a picnic." He told her.

He pulled out a blanket and she took the food out of the basket in which Draco brought with them.

"So, what really happened with you and Ron?" He asked.

"Well, he was acting strange after he came home from a mission to capture a few death eaters. It was 5 years ago. And then, few days later he left me."

"For what reason?"

"He said it was because we do not have a child yet."

"I would never leave you like that, Hermione."

"I know." She replied.

This time, it was Hermione's turn to ask a question.

" What's with you and Astoria?"

"Umm, well, she is beautiful and I have a small crush on her while we were at school but I began to despise her when I saw how bitch she is. She is obsessed with me."

"If you despise her, then why did you ask her to the ball?"

"So that I could bring someone." He replied.

"You're mean." She said sarcastically.

"Don't worry, I won't do that to you. I love you." He said.

"I love you too, Draco."

"Thanks for bringing me home, Draco."

"No problem. I hope you had a great day today."

"I did and it was all thanks to you."

She opened the door and saw Ginny with a worried face.

"What's wrong, Gin?"

"Hermione, he's back!"

Hermione's heart skipped a beat.

"Who's back?" She managed to say.

"He's back, Hermione!" Ginny was now crying." Ron's back!"
