Autumn Has Fallen | Dramione

Hermione had woken up from her sleep, looking over the view of fields and grass and other beautiful structures. They are now in France. After a few short minutes they finally arrived the station, she tried waking up Draco who was in a deep sleep, his head leaned against the window and headphones in. There wasn't even music playing left.

She patted his shoulder once more until Draco finally woke up, groaning and groggy.

"We're here" she whispered, making Malfoy smirk and open his eyes.

They both took their things until Hermione noticed that one of her cassettes were missing. "Hey, where's the other one?"

"Yeah, um... about that. I'll just buy you a new one"

"What? Why? What did you do?"

"Black tapes came out"

"Oh, it's easy to fix. Hand it to me, I'll fix it later" said Hermione, but sadly Draco pulled it out of his pockets, the tape was all tangled from the cassette.

"Okay, you broke it" she pursed her lips, holding the broken cassette at in her hands.

"I'll buy you a new one"

"No don't worry. You've been listening to Mambo no. 5 so loud I was worried you'd be deaf by now"

"You heard it?"

"Of course I did, you turned the volume up way too high" said Hermione, as they made their way to a hotel nearby.

"How many rooms?" The front desk asked them. The two looked at each other, unsure and waiting for the other to respond to the lady. Though it was clear enough they want only one room. But they just can't find the right words.

"Just one" said Draco. Signing both of them in and taking the keys to their hotel room. Hermione's heart stopped.

On their way to their room, they entered a beautiful hotel room with a small balcony, a large masterbed, and a bath tub.

"Wow, I don't think I can afford--"

"I'll pay my half don't worry too much, Granger" said Draco, running to the bed and jumping on it, kicking his shoes off. "Now this is sweet" he said.

"So, what are your plans, Mr. Malfoy?" She asked, placing her bags on the closet.

"Let's surprise ourselves" said Draco.

"What?"

"You know, have our own little tour. Just the two of us clueless people"

Hermione found a brochure near the tv and said, "look, we can go to a museum, take pictures in the Arc de Triomphe de l'Étoile, or..." she stopped for a moment as she glanced over the most iconic landmark of paris, the eiffel tower. She already knew that the place would be filled with couples but she didn't want him to know she likes him.

"Let's start right now. Bring that paper with you" said Draco, sitting up on the edge of the bed to put back his shoes.

"Hold on, I'll bring my camera with me" said Hermione, taking out her hand bag and a polaroid camera, as they hurridly went out on their first adventure.

The first place they visited was a local museum. And Draco was absolutely breath taken with countless of muggle objects and miscs.

"Hey, wait!" Said Hermione, pausing to take out her camera, "smile!" She said, taking a snap of Draco who posed and looked pretty attracting to her eyes. The polaroid went out, shaking it to reveal his photo. "I look good" Draco laughed. "Narcisstic" she scoffed. "I don't think I'm the only one"

After a short while of taking photographs, a tall man walked up to Hermione and tapped her shoulder. "Herm-own-ninny?"

Hermione recognized that voice before. She turned around to see Krum, her 4th year date at the yule ball. "Viktor!" She grinned, giving him a hug.

"Hi! It's been so long since I last seen you, how are you?" She asked him. "I'm doing great, Herm-own-ninny. I came to visit france for beauxbatons." He said.
"I haff special date with someone there" he whispered. "That's amazing! It's nice to finally see you again,"

"Where iz Ron Weasley?" He asked, as he turned his head to see Draco. "I know you," said Viktor. "You're Malfoy? uh.. the son of death eater?"

"Wow." Draco nervously chuckled.

"Oh, we should get picture!" Said Viktor. Draco pursed his lips, nodding as he said, "sure--"

"Malfoy, can you take picture with me and Herm-own-ninny?" Viktor asked, though Draco was expecting that he'd be in it too.

"Uh. Okay"

"Great! Just look thru this little square and click this button" said Hermione, giving the polaroid camera to him.

Draco sighed, rolled his eyes and did what Hermione told him to do. "One.. two.." Draco counted, Hermione and Viktor smiled, as he placed his arms around Hermione's shoulders; Draco clutches the camera a bit more tighter.

"It's blank" said Draco, thought that the flash was a bit too much because the polaroid came out without their photo. "You're supposed to shake and wait for the photo to come out" said Hermione. I don't wanna see your photo. He thought to himself.

The picture was revealed, showing Viktor and Hermione. "Can I keep it? I wanna show my girlfriend a picture of the girl who saved the wizarding world" Viktor asked Hermione. "Sure, Viktor"

"Thanks, Herm-own-ninny! Bye Drack-o!" Viktor waved goodbye, holding the polaroid and keeping it in his pocket.

"He's nice, isn't he?" Hermione looked at Draco.

"Very nice" Draco sarcastically said.

"Come on, let's go to the top floor!" Hermione pulled Draco to the staircase as they made their way on the upper floor of the museum, showing a magnificent view of Paris. "Wow" she grinned. "Look at that!" She said, pointing at the windmill. "Says here at the brochure that windmill happens to be kept in ruins as a reminder of the war. There once lived a family but sadly the mother died and the father was left with his daughter. Tragic." Said Hermione.

"What about that?" Draco asked, pointing the structure of an arc. "Arc de Triomphe de l'Étoile. Beautiful, isn't it?"

"Not as beautiful as you" he mumbled.

"Hmm?" She asked, she didn't hear what he said.

"Nothing. Oh what about that? That looks nice"

"That's the famous Eiffel tower. The most popular tourist attraction here in paris."

"Wanna go?"

"Uh.. I suggest we go there by night. It's much more prettier in lights" or much romantic if I should say. She said to herself.

"Okay. So the arc?"

"The arc it is" she said, as they both went downstairs.
