Savage Love Part 1- Emma

'''You would think it’d be impossible, but at that moment, there was nobody more perfect than her. Long brown hair, curly and soft. Chocolate brown eyes, too beautiful to believe. Soft, beautiful skin, like silk on my roughened hands. I had to have her, from the day we met. But then, she met him…'''

Hermione POV

I woke up, presuming it would be a normal day. I put on my pale lavender blouse and jeans, attempted to straighten my hair, and left my room. Waiting for me, as always, was Harry, standing tall and poetically, whether he liked it or not. And then there was Ronald, moaning about getting food in his awaiting stomach. I rolled my eyes upon hearing Ron’s typical moan. “Okay Harry, she’s here can we GO??” Ron moaned. Harry blushed at seeing my arrival. That’s odd, I thought.

“Y-yes Ron.” Harry stammered.

Harry POV

Oh. My. God. That did NOT just happen in front of Hermione. I had never been this mad at Ron in my life. He almost just exposed my crush! As we arrived at the Gryffindor table, Hermione decided to strike a conversation with me, much to my dismay.

“Harry, why were you blushing earlier??” she said in an annoyingly adorable way.

“I-i saw Ginny?” I blurted, not thinking. She stopped, dumbfounded, spared me a dirty look, and bolted.

Hermione POV

I never knew. My crush liked my best friend. I just fled the room.

I ran to the dungeons, because typically nobody is there. However, this time, Parkinson was in there. Crying. Alone. I didn’t feel like teasing her, so I decided to help her.

“ Um, Parkinson, are you okay??” I asked quietly.

She looked up, and I could see that her face was streaked with mascara and tears.

“ W-what do you want Granger??” She choked.

I sighed, all whilst holding back my tears.

“ I-I want to help. So, are you okay?” I tried again.

She gave a watery chuckle.

“N-no. D-Draco rejected m-me again.” she sighed. “ Will he ever love me?” she began to cry again. I could sympathize.

I gave her a gentle hug, and walked off.

Maybe, if we try harder, they’d like us, I thought to myself. Then I had my idea, and bolted to my room to change

Harry POV

I was stupid. So so very stupid. Turning to Ron, I said, “ I think I may have hurt Hermione.”

Ron gaped at me, before slapping me.

“ Harry! She’s the smartest person you know, and very beautiful! Why the heck would you hurt her?!”

“ I-I didn’t mean-” I began

Ginny walked over just as Ron was about to go in for the kill.

“ Hey boys!” She stopped as she saw Ron trying to strangle me. “RONALD!” she screamed. Ron sheepishly let go of my neck. I gasped for air.

“ Thanks Ginny.” I wheezed.

“ Anyways,” she continued, shooting me a weird look. “ Have you guys seen Mione??” she asked, sounding concerned.

I sighed, and asked Ron to go look for her.

Draco POV

Ugh. Parkinson. She was so desperate to have me she was practically begging. Even if I accepted her, she’d still be begging on her knees.

I decided to just walk to the Potions room, instead of eating food. On my way, I closed my eyes for just a second, and lucky me! I ran into somebody.

“Sorry!” I said. “ Let me help you up.” I offered her my hand.

“Thanks I guess...” she said.

I looked at her. I definitely knew her, but I couldn’t place who she was. “Do I know you?” I asked her

“ Malfoy it’s me. Your favorite Mudblood.” she said sounding annoyed.

I was struck dumb. Hermione looked different. Her hair was combed, long and curly. She had it in a long ponytail, dropping down her back. She was wearing simple, yet elegant clothes. She had on a black tank top, a short, red skirt with fishnet stockings. I had never seen her like this, and I liked it. I blushed, really hard.

Hermione POV

Omg! I think Malfoy blushed! This was the most emotion he has ever shown. Ever… but he’s.. well Malfoy! So I’m going to not expose my crush. Just as I was going to say something to Malfoy, Ronald arrived. He stopped, gaped at me, and said,

“Oi, Hermione, what happened to you?” Ronald asked. I simply rolled my eyes at him, for being blind.

Malfoy wrinkled his nose upon Ronald’s arrival. I giggled, because he looked like he had sucked a lemon. Ronald passed Malfoy a dirty look, and dragged me away. I struggled, wanting to talk to Malfoy more then be with Ronald. Ronald just gave me a puzzled look. I kicked him where it hurts, partially because I wanted to 1escape, and partially because I wanted to. He winced in pain, giving me a moment of escape. I ran back to the girls dorm, where I could be sure that Ron wouldn’t follow me. When I got there, Ginny and Luna were about to start a game of truth or dare

“Hey guys!” I said. “Mind if I join you?”

They looked at each other, and shrugged. “Sure Mione.” Luna smiled.

I grinned, but then stopped. “You guys wanna help me choose an outfit? This is super uncomfy.” I shivered.

Luna and Ginny grinned like sharks, and tackled me. In the end, I ended up wearing a soft green sweater, and some soft, grey leggings with small stars on them. My hair was brushed out, and like the rest of me, looked very soft and fluffy. I smiled, but then realized I was in Slytherin colors. I glared at them. They knew, I thought.

“Now we play!” Ginny cheered.

“Okay, Luna truth or dare!” I asked cheerfully.

Luna smirked. “Dare! I’m no chicken!” I told her to wear a matching version of my outfit, because I’m nice. She had on a pale blue sweater, and bronze-ish leggings with little birds on them. We looked at Ginny, the only person still in her day clothes. She blinked, wide-eyed. We handed her a matching version of what we had on. She emerged with a dark red sweater on, and very pale yellow leggings with no pattern. Her long, red hair was up in a ponytail, and she looked amazing. I smirked, and Luna took her turn.

Finally, we arrived at Ginny’s turn. “Hermione, truth or dare?” she asked.

I thought for a moment, and chose dare. Ginny grinned Satantically, and she whispered something to Luna. Luna gasped, and grinned, matching Ginny.

Then Ginny said, “Hermione, I dare you to kiss Malfoy!!” I heard it slowly, like I was in a nightmare. Then, when I realized what she actually said, I screamed so loud it seemed to shake the castle. I heard a scuffle outside the door, and I walked down the stairs to see Ron and Harry trying to scramble up the stairs.

“Hermione are you okay?” Harry asked, sounding panicked. I nodded, smirking. Harry sighed in relief, and seemed to sink. I just walked back into the dorm.

“Hermione you should kiss him tonight!” Luna smiled. “Then you could get it over with!” I sighed, knowing that she was right. I looked down, but then I had an idea.

“Hey girls wanna do makeovers? If I have to kiss Malfoy, you two have to kiss boys of my choosing!” I twirled my hair like a villain. Luna’s eyes widened, but then she squealed in excitement.

“I’m in!” Luna and Ginny said in unison. We all cheered, and began to work.
