Christmas Delight

The next morning, Draco woke up next to his beloved. He blissfully smiled as he watched Hermione sleep. ‘How can so much noise come from a peaceful angel?’ thought Draco. Content with her presence, and not wanting to wake Hermione up, Draco simply stayed in bed. He contemplated the change in his character over this holiday and how a single woman can change his whole life. Visions of Hermione and him began to emerge in Draco’s thoughts, visions of many children that bore resemblance to their parents. Visions of Hermione in a white summer dress as she proclaimed her vows to Draco, a diamond ring slipping onto her finger and her kiss of acceptance. However another vision came to Draco’s head, this vision was something unordinary.
Draco and Hermione are running in the forest. And all of a sudden they are in a Muggle metropolis. Both are confused and are still running and all of a sudden a loud bang is heard. They both turn around and see a hooded figure approaching them with a wand sticking out at both of them. A bus approaches the couple and they jump on it, the figure is angry and out of anger the figure takes off his hood. It is Harry Potter.

Draco jumped thus waking Hermione. She woke up and touched his shoulder
“Oh baby, its okay it’s just another nightmare” said Hermione reassuringly Draco nodded as he kissed her
“So race you down to the hall” said Draco mischievously. They both got dressed and ran downstairs. Their laughter can be heard all over the school as they ran to the Great Hall. As they opened the doors they found Ron and Ginny on the Gryffindor table eating. Both of them stopped laughing and went silent, Draco and Hermione looked at each other and they both understood. Draco went to the Slytherin table whilst Hermione went to the Gryffindor table. As Hermione sat down Ron stood up.
“Malfoy do you want to join us?” asked Ron. Everyone in the hall was shocked; Draco nodded and stood up as he approached the Gryffindor table.
“Thanks Weasley” said Draco, Ron smiled and went back to eating.
“So when did you guys get back?” asked Hermione
“Just now, couldn’t stand being at home. Luckily Bill, Fred and George are there” said Ginny
“Erm, I heard from Her…Granger that your father passed away. I hope you can accept my condolences” said Draco.
Both Ron and Ginny smiled “Thanks Malfoy”
Hermione was shocked, what the hell happened to Ron Wealsey. The man sitting opposite her was not the hot headed loyal Gryffindor. His face had lost the passion it used to possess; the only think his face showed was sadness and confusion.
“Look do you guys want to see a movie after breakfast?” asked Draco, both Weasley’s looked up
“Sure depends on what you got?” asked Ginny.
“I better get up there and look though it, Granger you know your friends better than I do so lets get up there and look through a few DVD’s” said Draco
Hermione smiled and went up “See you guys in a few minutes” Both Weasley’s smiled

As they got up there both displayed the shock they’ve been hiding
“Why did he invite me?” asked Draco
“I don’t know I do not know. To be honest with you, I think he knows about us”
“How can you tell?” asked Draco “Don’t know but it’s a gut feeling”
“Well I’m glad he knows. I don’t want to hide our love anymore” said Draco
“What about Harry?” asked Hermione
“You can tell him, he’s your friend you should be able to trust him” said Draco
“Do you think he will accept me?” replied Hermione as she and Draco embraced.
“If they don’t then they are not your friends. Hermione I don’t want to hide anymore, I want to kiss you in public I want you to hold my hand in public. I just want us to be a normal loving couple” said Draco
“Draco I want that too. But what are the risks concerning our families and friends getting into serious trouble over Voldermort?”
“I don’t care about him!” shouted Draco, Hermione was frightened now. Draco grabbed her in his arms and kissed her “I’ve been alone all my life, but this Christmas I found something I’ve always wanted. And I’m not going to give it up due to the principles of a mad son of a bitch” Hermione saw the love and passion in his eyes.
“How can I give you up, when you’ve already got my heart” whispered Draco, Hermione leaned into Draco “You’re right, if no one likes us being a couple, screw them. No one is going to get between us” said Hermione. Draco smiled and kissed her again.

Ron and Ginny went up to the Head Boys dorm
“These head’s really live in luxury” remarked Ron
“Don’t worry, when I’m Head Girl, you can come to the common room how many times you want” exclaimed Ginny
“How do you know I won’t become Head Boy?” asked Ron
“Its obvious” Ginny giggled and Ron became defenceless.

Hermione went into the bathroom and started to cry the voice in her head came back;
‘Why me? For God’s sakes why me? All I wanted was to settle down and lead a normal life. Now I’m involved with Draco fucking Malfoy, why did he do this to me’ She sat down on the floor and began to cry. She saw the door open and found Draco coming kneeling down. “Hermione why are you crying?” he said softly as he caressed her.

The siblings arrived at Draco’s dorm and were about to knock when they heard talking.

Hermione loved Draco’s comfort tactics, but now his tactics were of no use
“Why did you fall for me?” cried Hermione “What?” asked Draco.
“Why I” cried Hermione “You can have all of the fucking school and why did you pick me?” Hermione looked up at Draco, as he picked her up, dragged her to his bedroom and threw her on the bed. Hermione was frightened “Look at me! Look at me!” shouted Draco. Hermione opened her eyes and looked at him; he too was crying “What’s the matter with you. Can’t you just face it that I’m in love with you, is being in love so wrong. Does it really matter from what background you come from, you’re a so called Muggle and a Gryffindor and I’m a Slytherin and a so-called ‘Pureblood’. Are we so different that we can’t be together? Fuck this so-called loyalty and honour of houses, if it wasn’t for our division we would have been together long ago. People like my father lost the things they loved the most due to family loyalty and tradition. And I don’t care if I lose everything I own; I’d rather be in poverty and be in your arms that to have everything and not be with you” Draco broke down into tears “This fucking ideology on houses and groupings kills the very foundations of human life. Instead rivalry and war make up everything and ruin everything in site” Hermione wrapped her arms around Draco “Draco I’m sorry” whispered Hermione “I’m just afraid that I’ll lose my family” Draco nodded “I understand, but you’ve got to understand that love between two people is more powerful than anything. The thin line of love and hate has been tested here, I tired to hate you but I couldn’t. Your stubborn attitude, your intelligence, your smart mouth and your beauty destroyed all the anger I had for you. You said that I ruined your life, well you too ruined mine. I’m a bastard and you’re a bitch but I pray to any fucking God up there that I rather die than lose you, and I’m not going to lose you, like you will never lose me” Hermione listened to Draco and finally realised the amount of love he possessed for her. Hermione knew he loved her, but she never expected that his whole being depended on her, this brought Hermione into tears. Hermione went over to Draco and she lightly touched his shoulder, Draco shuddered underneath and brought his own hand round to touch hers. Draco turned around and saw the love and beauty that Hermione possessed, her amber eyes pierced through him and made him warm, her sensitive touches gave him comfort that he won’t be alone anymore.

Ginny looked at Ron, the tears poured down his cheeks, “Oh Ron” she whispered as she cuddled him. Ron walked away followed by Ginny
“He’s right you know” said Ron
“What do you mean?” asked Ginny
“He’s right, the fucking Ferret is right” said Ron
“About what?” asked Ginny
“This, the life we have led all these years. The rivalry, the hatred, the war between houses. If it wasn’t for tradition, who knows Draco could’ve been friends with me and Hermione would have never been hurt”
Ginny was shocked “Ron what you are saying now is out of line”
Ron looked at her and calmly said “Ginny I’m not going to force your decision, but what’s more important loyalty to a group or love between two people?”
Ginny was surprised by his brother’s words; he never was romantic nor calm. Normally he would’ve bashed the door down and kill Draco Malfoy for ‘corrupting’ Hermione, his ‘sister’ Hermione. But that was in the past now and Ginny noticed this, what she did not notice was Hermione and Draco standing side by side.
“Ron?” said Hermione. Ron looked up and saw Hermione and Draco together, he smiled at them “Go for it guys if what you say is true Draco, then be together till death parts you both” Draco smiled “Thanks Ron”


N.B. I know its been over two years since I last updated but I recently looked at the reviews and and some were egging me on to continue. So I decided to come back to it. Thanks for the reviews, they mean so much to me. I'll try and update again in a few weeks, cause I'm in my final year at university and I've got essays to hand in soon (Probably the last ones I'll ever hand in Yay!)
Take Care and Thanks Again
