Three is Enough

A/N: : ) Thanks for all the encouraging reviews. Here's a little fluff between our favorite boys.

Draco looked down at the sleeping girl that was pillowed on his chest. Her breath was warm as it wafted across his muscles, caressing him like a gentle breeze. His skin pebbled in pleasure beneath her mouth as she breathed deeply.

They'd worn the poor girl completely out. And it was no wonder that she'd managed to keep up with the both of them. She'd turned out to be everything that he'd expected and then some. Draco tucked one of her unruly curls back behind her ear. He felt bad now for teasing her about her riotous hair. It was actually quite beautiful. She sighed as she snuggled closer to his body.

Draco was surprised by the force of emotion that swelled within him. He'd never felt this passionately about anyone. He knew that he would follow this girl to the ends of the earth if she asked him.

But he was scared. What if he turned out to be just like his father? What if he became like Lucius, cold and unfeeling.

"Blaise," he whispered, not wanting to wake the sleeping witch.

"Hmmmm…" his friend muttered from the other side of Hermione.

"What if I'm not good enough for her?" he asked quietly.

He felt the bed shift as Blaise propped himself up on his elbows to look at him.

Blaise stared at him and Hermione for a moment before he finally asked, "You love her, right?"

Draco considered the girl again. He'd wanted her for far longer than he cared to admit. Did that mean that he loved her? He couldn't imagine his life without her now that she was within his grasp.

"Yes," he answered as the realization washed through him. He did love her. "There's nothing more than I'd like to do than spend every day and every night just like this."

"Well," Blaise stated matter-of-factly. "There's your answer, mate. All you need is love. The rest will sort itself out on its own."

"You really think so?" Draco asked.

He hated feeling so vulnerable. But he knew Hermione's love wasn't something that he could go out and buy. It was something that he'd have to earn.

"I know so," Blaise affirmed. "Now, would you bloody well quit over-analyzing things. The two of you have me completely knackered and I'd like to rest up for round two in the morning."

Draco smirked at his best mate before closing his eyes. There was nothing better than morning after sex. He could definitely get used to this quickly. He'd have to remember to thank Blaise. This was the best idea that he'd ever had.

End Note: Gotta love the Beatles, all you need is love. Leave me some love in the form of a review, let me know what you thought. Tomorrow is the epilogue.
