Disclaimer: Sadly, when I woke up this morning, I still didn't own Harry Potter, or make any money from it either, :( |
A/N - Draco's note is from the gorgeous song from Avenged Sevenfold, I loved the lyric, so I used it!
" No," I said, shaking my head, trying to secretly shake away the offending tears that dared to escape the confines of my eyes.
" I'm sorry," he whispered.
" No, your not," I sniffed.
He stretched out his arms, attempting to hug me, as if that would make everything all right. As if that would make the pain go away.
" Don't touch me," I hissed and pushed his arms away. He sighed and ran a hand through his hair, taking a seat. " Why are you doing this? Why now?"
He didn't respond right away. Instead he stood up, walked to the door and placed his hand on the doorknob. " I already explained all that I could Hermione, I don't know what else I can say." His hand started to turn the knob, he was leaving, forever walking out of my life. My heart dropped to the bottom of my stomach, and I ran to his side. I angrily tore his hand off the door and pushed him back. He stumbled back, a look of shock washing over his face.
" Hermione, look, this isn't the way...." he began, but my hand landing a respectful slap across his cheek, a resounding smack echoing off the walls of our room immediately cut off whatever he was going to say. His perfectly manicured, pureblooded hand swiftly came up to hold his cheek, which was fastly turning a brilliant shade of red around the edges of my hand print.
" You don't get the privilege of using my name. That's reserved for friends, family, and at one point in time, you, but now, no more. Just answer me, is there someone else?" Tears once again returning, but this time I refused to fight them. I wanted him to see them, to see the hurt he was causing me.
" No, there was never anyone but you, will never be anyone like you. I've already told you, I just feel like we've drifted apart lately." He sighed, and tried to make his way back to the door, but I stood my ground, refusing to let him leave. " I'll send for my things in the morning."
" How can you say that? Just what does that mean, we've drifted apart?" I shouted,my hands on my hips.
" Just that. When was the last time we had dinner together, had time to have a proper date? Hell, the last time we slept in the same bed? Merlin, even I can't remember the last time we made love," He explained, shaking his head, his face now starting to sport a light pink shade, a sign his anger was rising.
" You know we're both busy, with your Seeker position on Puddlemere and my job at the ministry, it's hard to find time, but we both did our best and it worked. And had I known, for the entire three years of our relationship, that all you cared about was sex, I wouldn't have even bothered with your arse in the first place. But I thought you were above that Malfoy, I thought you truly loved me, I....."
" I DID! Merlin, I loved you with everything I had. It wasn't just about sex, it was about you not wanting me around anymore." He interrupted, yelling.
" WHAT?" I couldn't believe what I was hearing.
" Every time I came home, you would always make some outrageous excuse why we couldn't be together. Every time I woke up alone at night, I went looking for you, only to find you asleep in some other room, on the couch, in your study, anywhere but with me. Every time I went to touch, you always pushed me away, like you were repulsed by me. And as much as I loved you, I'll be damned if I'm going to stay where I'm not wanted, where I'm not loved."
I couldn't believe it, he thought I didn't want him anymore? He was absolutely off his rocker! I couldn't contain my excitement when I would receive one of his owls telling me he was coming home that night. My stomach would flip flop to the point of nausea with the knowledge of being able to climb into bed and have him wrap his warm, strong arms around me, holding me for dear life. No, this wasn't supposed to happen, I couldn't let it happen. Couldn't he see how much this was killing me, how much I didn't want him to go? I wasn't even sure I could go on living if he wasn't by my side. I needed him to see how much I wanted him. Without him, life held no meaning, and Merlin will turn in his grave before I give up on the best thing that's ever happened in my life.
I looked up at him through teary eyelashes, my brown eyes locking on to his silver, molten pools of lava that always entranced me. I wiped my eyes and took a solid step towards him, his eyebrows furrowing in confusion. I grabbed his hand and held it to my chest, allowing him to feel my heartbeat, my racing pulse, letting him know I still wanted him.
Quietly I whispered, " I'm not pushing you away now, and I never will," and I pulled him forward with force that his body was fully against mine and I crashed my lips on his. I released all emotion, all my love, everything I had into that kiss, as I led him back towards the bed, pulling him down upon me. He was holding back, I knew it, I could feel it. He was fighting internally with himself, when finally he began kissing me back, his body relaxing, his hands reaching behind me and tangling themselves in my hair, tilting my head back for better access.
The kiss was brutal, bruising, unrelenting, and I loved it, I yearned for it. I wanted to feel his anger, allow him to take me to the depths of hell with him and burn in the flames of our love. My hands grasped his shirt in the front, and I ripped it wide open, buttons flying everywhere in my attempt to feel his skin on mine. The heat of his skin scorching my own, and I moaned in ectasy. Had it really been that long? Since I last felt his weight upon me, his soft, smooth skin brushing agonizingly against mine, his scent flooding my nose, making me dizzy with delirium? I hadn't noticed. I had been so wrapped up in work, I had forgotten how he smelt, felt. I had forgotten him.
He groaned deep in his throat as my hands freely roamed his body, and I shifted myself, placing him on his back with me straddling his waist. I leaned down and began placing soft kisses down his chest as my hands fumbled with his belt buckle. He grabbed my hands, stopping me for a moment, and whispered,
" I don't know if I can allow myself to love you again,"
" I'm not asking you too."
" This doesn't change anything Granger, I don't know if we can ever be the way we were before."
One lonely tear rolled down my cheek as I replied softly, " stay tonight. Tomorrow we can figure everything out and decide, but tonight, just let me love you. Let me show you my feelings haven't changed, that I still love you as much as I did three years ago, that I'm still love with you,"
He released my hands and grabbed my face, forcing my lips down on his.
He let me, and I did.

The next morning, sun shined upon my face and I smiled. I had given him everything I had, showed him all I was, all I felt and I prayed it was enough. I stretched my arms up and reached over to his side, wanting to feel his warmth against me again, only I didn't feel anything. Only the rumpled sheet and I shot up in surprise. I listened intently, not hearing the shower, didn't smell coffee or breakfast cooking and I nervously began wondering where he was. I scrambled out of bed, finding my bathrobe and tightly tied the sash and began my decent through our house, searching for him. Finding him nowhere, I returned to the bedroom, where suddenly I had a nervous feeling building in the pit of my stomach. I walked towards the closet on shaky legs that nearly gave out on me a few times and slowly pulled open the doors. All his clothes were gone, his shoes, everything. Everything he owned in the house had been taken, all that remained were my things. I gasped and turned away suddenly, nausea over coming me and I ran for the bathroom, emptying the contents of my stomach violently, while tears streamed down my face. I crawled on my hands and knees back to our bed, and laid on his side, placing my head face first in the pillow, trying hard to find the smell that was so distinctly him, but something rough was blocking it. I lifted my head and found a note, laying in the middle of the pillow. How I had missed it before, I have no idea. I held it out in front of me and read the contents, fresh tears flowing freely down my cheeks and a sad smile crossing my face.
Our love had been so strong for far too long, but I was weak with fear that something would go wrong. And before that possibility could come true, I took all possibility from you.
