Chapter 1
It was beautiful. The rain as it trickled down outside the window. It was also loud, as the thunder howled its way across the dark sky. I watched as I waited for its twin to strike down at any given moment. Thunder and lightning, hand in hand.
"Going to keep watching the rain, or come join me near the fire darling?"
I turned my head slightly at the voice, but eyes continued to stay on window. I answered, " Will you ever come by the window, Malfoy? Watch as the rain beats against ground. Waiting for the Thunder to speak and the lighting to strike? It's quite beautiful you know." He simple smiled and gave a shake of his head as he heard me call his last name.
"Not as beautiful as you can be Hermione," He spoke. Draco had one hand open in a book and the other stretched out to me, just waiting for me. As awalys as he does.
Grabbing my own book and I moved from the window seat and walked towards my waiting husband. He gave me a soft smile as I took his hand and made myself comfortable in between his thick thighs. Pulling me closer, he rested his chin on my shoulder and nuzzled me. Sweeping my hair to the side, he laid the most gentlest and softest kisses on my shoulder. So quiet, as I breathed out a sigh and leaned back against him.
I could feel his love for me;the same love that just seems to grow even stronger since the day he confessed his love for me. I couldn't believe then when he did. It was surreal to me that he did. I knew I loved him, but I wasn't sure if he felt the same. We spent time together, kissing each other when no one was looking, the lingering fingers as we passed each other in the halls of Hogwarts. It wasn't official, we didn't make it official until he confessed that day.
"What is your pretty mind thinking about, my love?" Draco asked as he continued to kiss my shoulder. I shrugged a little as my a smile graced my lips.
"Keeping secrets now, are we my princess?" He said and he squeezed me tighter. "Shall I just tickle my way through your body till I get answers?" As he ran his hands up and across my stomach as I tried to squirm away.
I stifled a laugh trying to move inches away but he kept kept a hold of me and started tickling me under my shirt. I could feel his warm hands move feverishly across my stomach seeking answers out. I just shook my head and continued to laugh.
Finally deciding I had enough I tried to escape but Draco pulled me under him and trapped me between his body. Breathing heavily I blinked up at him and stared into his grey eyes. Swirling with emotions, I reached up and wrapped my arms around his neck and pulled him down to my lips.
Instantly he pulled me closer and gave as much passion with his lips. Quickly moving from my lips to my neck he breathed out a sigh and pressing light kisses to me. "Hermione, my darling do you want to continue this in the bedroom or here?" He said as he pulled away slightly.
Shaking my head I grabbed him again and kisses him. "Right here is good." Reaching down to start unbutton my shirt, " Plus it's going to get warm in here anyway."
Reaching out to stop my hands he smirked and said, "I suppose it is. Let me finish undressing you, you know you love it when I do."
Smiling I knew this was the moment in a vast majority of moments that I loved Draco Malfoy. I couldn't believe that I did but I did. I was truly, deeply inlove with Darco Malfoy and I wouldn't trade it for anything. To me we have grown so much and been through so much, to be together in this very moment. I loved him and it was simply that. For me it was beautiful.
