Hermione woke up early. She didn't want to deal with Tom, no not yet. She crawled out of bed, careful not to wait him. She looked down on him, smiling. He was adorable when he slept. She slipped on some jeans and pulled on her cloak. She quietly made her way outside. The sun was just beginning to rise. She made her way to a secluded corner of the gardens where she would have a perfect view.
She sat down inhaling the fresh air. She blinked, a few tears running down her face. She used to watch the sunset with her dad. It started when she was 6 years old. Her dad came into her room and scooped her into his arms. He carried her downstairs and brought her outside. They cuddled up on a blanket watching the sun. She remembered him hugging her close, whispering in her ear that he loved her. She snuggled up to him, she loved her dad. He gave her one of the best pieces of advice that night.
"Always remember bugaboo, no matter how dark the night, somehow the sun rises once again and all shadows are chased away."
Hermione sighed, pulling her cloak around her. It was chilly. Suddenly, she felt a blanket put around her shoulders. She looked up to see Tom standing above her. Smiling, he sat down next to her. Tom put his arm around her. She leaned into him. "How did you know where I was?" she asked. He chuckled, pulling her closer. "You didn't think you slipped away unnoticed my little lioness?" She smirked, "I guess not."
They sat in silence for awhile longer before Tom broke it. "What are you doing out here anyways?" Hermione frowned, thinking about her father. Tom senses her sadness, "Hermione?" She wiped her eyes, "My dad used to take me out to watch the sunrise. He always gave the best advice." Tom simply nodded, not sure of what to say.
He felt bad for Hermione. She had no one, no one at all. I mean she had Narcissa, but not really. He could tell Hermione still felt awkward around her. He sighed, pulling her small body closer to her. She smelled intoxicating. He looked down at her. Her brown waves fell about her head, she had her eyes closed. She clutched at him, trying to bring him closer. He obliged, pulling Hermione into his lap. It was in this moment, he realized just how badly she needed him. She cared for him, deeply. He felt like an idiot for not realizing it sooner. And he was messing around with her. He shook his head.
Hermione sat in his lap, thinking about what her father had said to her. Things will always get better, no matter how bad things get. She was interrupted by her thoughts when she felt Tom place his hand on her cheek. She turned up and looked at him. Her eyes opened in surprise when she saw his. They were full of raw emotion. Unsure of what to do, she just stared at him.
He placed his lips upon hers, devouring her. She gave in, enjoying the feeling of passion and desire coursing through her veins. Something in her snapped. She knew she would never be able to live without him. She didn't care or know how he felt, she just needed him, always. She kissed him, letting his tongue explore her mouth. His hands were in her hair, caressing her. He was her drug and she was addicted. And she didn't give a damn.
Tom pulled away, looking at her. "Hermione.." he began. She nodded, encouraging him to continue. "Hermione, I'm not one for raw emotion... I..." He paused, she could tell he was really struggling with what he wanted to tell her. "I care for you, I really do I just have a hard time showing it, and letting people in. Please be patient with me." Hermione sighed in relief, putting her arms around him. "Thank you," she whispered.
Tom hugged her back, "I will protect you from anyone or anything."
She smiled then pulled him down for another kiss. She could feel the passion building. Hermione tugged on his hair, making him growl. Suddenly, he pulled back. "Hermione.." She pouted, not wanting to let go.
Tom smirked and stood up. "I have to go somewhere today. Try not to get into too much trouble. Okay?" She nodded. He leaned forward and pressed a kiss to the top of her head. After that, he disappeared with a small pop.
Hermione made her way back into the manor, looking for Draco. She knew exactly what she wanted to do today. She was going to face one of her greatest fears. After searching she finally found him, but unfortunately, he was with Pansy.
"Draco?" She asked timidly. He turned to her smiling. Pansy huffed, "Drakie, we're busy, tell her to go away." Draco ignored her. "Yes Hermione? What can I do for you?" "I was wondering if I could talk to you for a moment." He nodded and the two of them went into the corner to talk. "Draco, I'm sorry if I interrupted something." "Not at all", he smirked. "I.. um, was wondering if you could do me a huge favor?" He nodded and she leaned over and whispered in his ear. Smirking, he nodded.
The two of them went to leave when Pansy's shrill voice stopped them. "Draco, what do you think your doing!" "None of your business. You can floo home." With that, Draco stormed out of the room. Hermione looked at Pansy then turned to catch up with him. "Draco, I hope she isn't mad at you..." He laughed, "No. I can't stand her sometimes." They made their way outside and Draco turned to her.
"Are you sure you want to do this?" Hermione nodded, smiling. "Please Draco! I've been afraid of flying for so long, pleaseee." She smirked, knowing he'd give in. He summoned his broom. "You'll ride with me first before we set you loose on your own." She smiled.
Tom apparated back to the Manor. He decided to go search for Hermione. She wasn't in their room, or the library. Confused, he searched and found Narcissa standing in the drawing room staring out the window. He strode over to see what was so amusing. "What are they doing?" He was upset when he saw Hermione going to sit on the broom behind Malfoy. Was he jealous? Probably.
Narcissa laughed. "She said something about facing fears." Tom simply nodded and watched on. He could see the smile on her face from here.
Hermione placed her arms around Malfoy's waist. "Let's go!" she shouted! Draco laughed and obliged. He kicked off, and Hermione screamed, feeling her feet leave the ground. She grasped him tighter. "Hermione, open your eyes!" She did and smiled. The view was beautiful. She didn't realize how large the Manor they were at really was. They zoomed around and Hermione laughed. She was having so much fun. They zoomed back to the ground and Hermione jumped off. Her cheeks were bright red.
"Draco, that was amazing! Thank you. I had never felt so free!" He smiled then summoned another broom. He handed it to her, and she hesitated. "Draco.. I don't know.." He placed it in her hands. "Hermione, come on!" Taking a breath, she mounted the broom, unaware of Tom and Narcissa watching them.
She kicked off, soaring into the air. She smiled and turned to Draco. He soared in front of her, and she followed him. He led her to the coast. "Wow. This is beautiful!" Draco smiled, "I bet you figured out where we are now." She smiled, "The south of France. It's beautiful." He smiled and the two of the continued flying around. "I don't know why I was so afraid of flying. It's amazing!" Draco simply nodded. The two of them made their way back to the Manor.
Hermione landed then threw herself on Draco. "Thank you so much! You're such a good friend." Draco patted her back, "You're welcome." They broke apart and Hermione couldn't stop smiling. She turned and saw Tom approaching with Narcissa. Draco dropped to his knees bowing. Hermione smiled and ran over to him.
"Tom, your back." She threw her arms around him and he looked down on her. Draco and Narcissa looked on in surprise, but didn't dare say anything. He simply turned to leave, holding her hand. Hermione said goodbye to them over her shoulder. She was happy he was returning her affection in front of others.
"So did you face your fears?"
She nodded, "Tom, it was wonderful! So exhilarating. I loved it."
Tom smiled, glad to see her happy. The two went inside while Hermione went on and on about her flying experience.
