Hermione | Astronomy Tower

To say that Draco was nervous was an understatement. He was sat on his bed with a small white fluffy creature in his lap--one of his gifts that Granger had so generously given to him. He lazily played with the kitten, smiling at its soft mews as it attacked his forefinger, catching it in its mouth and almost smiling in victory. He straightened the green bow that had been tied around its neck, since he hadn't had the heart to take it off.

He had been overwhelmed by the gifts that Granger had given him. He had already begun to use the broom servicing kit, and was still surprised that she had even thought to have his family crest put upon it as well. The sweets had been his absolute favorite but, the most shocking of all of course, was the kitten. A snow white kitten, with a green bow tied gently around its neck.

Draco was surprised by all of it to be honest. He didn't think he would ever get used to her generosity and thoughtfulness--something he knew he lacked entirely. He felt awful that he didn't think to get her anything as well, although he probably should have. They had made up from their fight a few weeks ago--him apologizing profusely for going off with Daphne and for his behavior in general. And things had been...great, for lack of a better term, since they made up.

And now he felt like he had gone and messed up again. So...he was going to try something different. Draco was going to do something he had never done before.

He gently lifted the kitten off of his lap, and placed it softly down on a bundle of blankets on his bed before turning towards his dresser and mirror. Draco studied his reflection as he buttoned up his shirt and tied a soft silver tie around his neck, a change from the constant black upon black. He hastily ran his hands through his hair, his nerves hitting him unexpectedly as he once again realized he had no idea if what he was doing was going to be taken as well as he wanted it to be.

Realizing that it was too late to turn back now, the young Slytherin decided to head to the Astronomy Tower, where he had invited Granger to meet him. He had already set up earlier in the day, a small table set to the side of the small room. He had lit three candles upon it, and their meal--that he hadn't had the courage to cook himself--was placed in a silver container with an enchantment placed on it to keep it hot.

When Draco arrived, he looked around with a smirk of satisfaction. There were more candles on the floor, surrounding a bunch of blankets that he had fashioned together to be like a bed for them to sit or lay upon. He thought everything looked as good as it could--and nodded hastily recognizing that he could do no more, but wait for Granger's arrival. So there he stood by the window, lightly gnawing on his lip and staring up at the stars.

Granger--I...could you meet me?

At the top of the Astronomy Tower?

I know it's New Year's Eve and that it's presumptuous of me to assume you don't have plans but...could you?

And wear something nice, please.

How are things with Hermione? You guys will be gorgeous together.

Gorgeous? I suppose. I'll have to take most of the credit though.

And I think...I think that things might just be all right. Yeah.

[ask-draco]

When you and Hermione have sex it'll be so great. :'D

Well. If.

But yeah. If that happens, it'll be fucking fantastic.

OOC: You're back!!! I missed seeing you and your Dramione on my dash!!

OOC: I am, and I certainly missed being here!

I'm happy that you're happy ;___;

Draco found himself instinctively leaning into her touch, his breath hitching from how much he had missed her and how much he just wanted to be near her--to hold her in his arms and cradle her like he had only weeks before. Her words soothed him, and he felt his heart beat erratically while at the same time it was more relieved than it had been since their fight. He raised his hand and placed it on hers gently, before taking it away from his cheek to his lips, kissing it lightly.

"I still want this too, Granger." He sighed, his lips brushing against her skin, before he gave into his instincts and wrapped his arms around her, and tucked his chin over her head. Draco felt like a fool, for ever thinking that he could have possibly replaced her with another. Granger was smart and clever and kind and everything he didn't deserve. So of course, he couldn't let her go. At least not today.

He raised a hand and cautiously ran it through her hair, gently detangling any knots he happened to encounter. His eyebrows scrunched in frustration at how she had a knack for constantly bringing out the sentimental side of him--it wasn't something he was used to. And it had only been a few weeks since their fight, but it felt like far too long and Draco wanted to make sure she was just as she remembered, even though he was more than aware that that was a ridiculous notion.

Draco pulled away from her, but made sure to remain in close proximity with a hand on her waist and one on her cheek. "And I'm here, that is if you'll still have me. Or whatever." He quickly added the last two words under his breath, desperately clinging to any shred of dignity he had, while he also began to gnaw on his lip and furrow his brow in anticipation of her response.

Ooc: is this rp dead?

ooc: Nope! I don't consider it to be that at all.

Nikki, Pansy, is taking a break from tumblr. And I've been extremely busy this past week with packing and getting ready for college. Now I'm here! I desperately owe Holly a reply, and once that's done we'll be back on track.

But this RP would be less "dead" if people auditioned and joined! People like...you!
