Twisted Love

8: Almost

*In the astronomy tower.*

"Draco, I think we should stop meeting here."

Draco: What do you mean?

"Well, if we were caught together once here, what's to stop them from finding us here again?"

Draco: Oh, I see. For a second, I thought you were going to break up with me!

"Now, why would I do that?"

Draco: I was asking myself the same question. Where do you suggest we meet next time?

"I don't know. We'll think of something."

Draco: Of course we will... I better get going, I'm suppose to meet Blaise in a few minutes.

"Okay."

*Draco kisses Hermione goodbye and then leaves.*

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

[ Draco P.O.V ]

*In the Slytherin common room.*

Blaise: Well, it's about time you've got here! Where the bloody hell have you been?!

"I- uh, was in the library."

Blaise: Since when do you go to the library?

"I had to look something up, okay? What's wrong with that?"

Blaise: Nothing! I was just wondering...

"What did you want to talk to me about, then?"

Blaise: Pansy...

"What about her?"

Blaise: She's been miserable since you broke up with her!

"So?"

Blaise: So, you can't just date a girl for a year and then tell her that you never even like her in the first place!

"But it's true! I never liked Pansy!"

Blaise: But you told me you did!

"I lied, okay?"

Blaise: Why?

"Because, I like someone else."

Blaise: Why didn't you tell me in the first place?

"Because she's not in Slytherin."

Blaise: So? I've dated Cho Chang!

"I still can't believe you dated her!"

Blaise: Neither can I! So, what house is she in?

"She's in Gryffindor..."

Blaise: What?! Please tell me you're joking...

*silence.*

Blaise: You haven't told her, have you?

*silence.*

Blaise: Draco! What have you done?!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

[ Hermione P.O.V ]

*Hermione finds Lavender sitting on the floor crying.*

"Lavender, what's wrong?"

Lavender: Why do you care?! You've finally gotten what you've wanted!

"What are you talking about?"

Lavender: He broke up with me! Again! And it's all your fault!

"What?! How's it my fault?!"

Lavender: He broke up with me because he's still in love with you! And it's obvious that you're still in love with him as well!

"You've got to be joking! I'm dating someone else who's not even in Gryffindor!"

What am I doing?! I did not just say that!

Lavender: What?! Who?!

Quick! Something to cover it up, um...

"That's none of your business!"

*Hermione then walks away.*

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

*Hermione enters the common room where she finds Harry and Ron sitting on the couch.*

Harry: Hello Hermione!

"Hey, Harry! So Ronald, I hear you're still in love with me."

Ron: Where did you hear that?

"I ran into Lavender on my way back."

Harry: So, that's why you broke up with her!

"Oh, like you didn't know!"

Harry: I didn't!

"Cut it out Harry! You and Ron tell everything to each other!

Ron: Hermione... He didn't know...

"Of course he didn't. I'm going to bed."

*Later in the chatroom.*

~ The_Dragon has signed on

~ Pure_Happiness<3 has signed on

~ Pure_Happiness<3 has changed their username to Hermione_Granger

The_Dragon: What's wrong??

Hermione_Granger: How could you tell?

The_Dragon: You're never on this late...

Hermione_Granger: You know me too well...

The_Dragon: That's my job, isn't it? ;) Now what's bothering you?

Hermione_Granger: Ron broke up with Lavender...

The_Dragon: So??

Hermione_Granger: He broke up with her because of me!

The_Dragon: Oh...

Hermione_Granger: Yeah...

The_Dragon: You're still not in love with him, are you?

Hermione_Granger: No! Of course not!

The_Dragon: Sorry... I know you don't... I shouldn't have asked...

Hermione_Granger: Draco, don't worry about it! I would've asked the same thing to you

The_Dragon: I told Blaise...

Hermione_Granger: You what?!

The_Dragon: I didn't tell him everything... Just that I'm dating a Gryffindor...

Hermione_Granger: I told Lavender that I was dating someone from a different house...

The_Dragon: So, I guess we're even!

Hermione_Granger: Something like that... How did Blaise take it??

The_Dragon: He freaked out and lectured me... but nothing too serious :)

Hermione_Granger: Do you think he'll tell your father??

The_Dragon: I doubt it... What about Lavender??

Hermione_Granger: I walked away before I could respond... She might tell Ron in a attempt to get him back though...

The_Dragon: We can handle that ;)

Hermione_Granger: I know we can :) I should get going, it's getting late...

The_Dragon: Do you have to? :(

Hermione_Granger: Unfortunately, I'm exhausted...

The_Dragon: All right then... Good night Hermione! You are my forever <3

Hermione_Granger: Good night Draco! And you are my always <3
