15. Sudden visit
Frustrated yet sexy Draco (👆👆)
We need to talk. I'll be waiting for you at ITALIANO restaurant by the side of your office. Be there at sharp 5pm. Draco re-read the message nth time while sitting inside the restaurant. He had been waiting at the given address before 5 pm. He was too anxious to meet her. He sighed as his wrist watch, showed 5:10pm.
'You're the one, supposed to be waiting for me!' Draco yelled in his mind as the feeling of something big going to be happened, creep in his mind. He didn't understand that why she texted him to meet here, in private. They never met alone and the sudden message from her was not a good sign either. He turned ON the screen of his phone and scrolled though the contacts list then stopped at her number. He wanted to call her, to know about her whereabouts but still trying to stay calm. He knew that once she arrived here, he would be too nervous. Of cause, he was a tough man but something about her, makes him nervous.
He looked back at the phone screen and decided to call her. Just as his right thumb swiped over call icon, the restaurant's door opened and came inside the culprit of his anxious.
Draco watched her closely, observing her. She was indeed a beautiful young lady. Anyone could fight to have her. But today, she was looking different. The normal and carefree smile on her face was no more there, her face was full of seriousness as her brown eyes hard to read. She looked around to find him. As her eyes found her target, she walked in his direction without changing her face expression.
With a business smile on his handsome face, Draco stood up as she approached his table," Hello miss. Granger."
Hermoine gave him a tight smile while greeting him back," Hello Mr. Malfoy. Sorry for being late. Stuck in an urgent work."
Draco nodded in response as she took a seat across him. He knew that Hermoine was busy because of their new project and might be wanted to discuss about it. But again, why would she called him here to meet in private? And the fact that Harry met her in the morning was enough to clear his doubt about this sudden meeting. He didn't have any doubts about her intelligence but how she found out about them, was a big question for him.
"Would you like something to drink?" Draco asked while signaling a waiter to come forward.
"Yes sir." The waiter asked, looking at Hermoine with lust filled eyes.
"Just orange juice for me." Hermoine said without moving her gaze from Draco's eyes.
"Same." The waiter nodded and with a last glance at Hermoine, he walked away. Draco smiled initially as Hermoine didn't give a glance to that stupid waiter. He was happy that she was not a player type and a perfect one for Ron.
Draco leaned forward while placing both of his hands on the table and asked," So, why you want to meet me here? It's not like a business meeting. "
Hermoine smiled," Yes, it is not a business meeting and I hope you know the real reason of our meeting." Hermoine forced on 'Meeting' word. She was looking calm from outside but even a blind person could see that she was not that calm from inside. Since she saw them eating each other's mouth, she had many questions. She got answers from Harry and now it's Draco's turn.
Draco shrugged," I don't know. You have to be specific about OUR MEETING."
If it's other occasion then Draco would laugh at Hermoine's glaring eyes and scowling face but not now, when she was looking like a wounded lioness," Ok then. I came here to know about your true intentions for Harry."
Draco gussed that it might be related to Harry but how did she know about them? Did Harry tell her about them?," I don't have any evil intentions towards him."
"Then why are you trying to turn him a gay?!" Hermoine whispered yelled at him as her right hand curled into a fist and bang on the table, making the few things on it jumped a little bit. Draco looked around to make it sure that they don't have any unwanted attention then turned back to Hermoine and glared at her.
His jaws twitched as his blood boiled at her inculpate on him for turning Harry gay. How could she say that?! He yelled initially," Listen Hermoine, when you don't know about other's feelings then don't go around and blame others for what they never did."
"Oh yeah! Then what are you doing with him? Listen Draco, it doesn't matter if you're also my boss. I don't give a shit. If you have evil_" Hermoine stopped as the same waiter came back with their orders in his hands. First he put the glass of orange juice in front of Draco then did the same with Hermoine. He smiled at her but she ignored him as her whole focus was on Draco. With a sigh, the waiter left them as Hermoine didn't glanced at his direction and continued with her conversation," If you have any evil intentions for him then stopped it before it's too late."
Draco nodded at her calmly then took a sip of orange juice before placing the glass back on the table.," Ok. You're right. As a friend I would never want something bad happened to Pansy and Ron. But Don't you think that if I have some evil intentions for him then I have done it already, you know the damages? I don't know how you got the idea of us staying together, but for your kind information, basically, we have been living together since last few months. And What you think about his sudden interest in business? That guy is still unaware but I know that he wanted to impress me with his skills! If he is a game for me then what is he doing with me? I'm damn sure that he is an adult enough to know what is good or bad for him. I have plenty of time to destroy him and his innocence. But no, I'm just waiting for him to accept me wholeheartedly."
Draco huffed while wiping his left hand over his face," I am the one, who is playing with the fire right now. I am in too deep shit that if he reject me, I would never be able to accept someone else in my life." Draco stopped then pointed a finger towards Hermoine," You know him since childhood. He is a straight guy for God's sake! I am a gay one. If someone going to destroy with the rejection then that person would be me, not him. He can get any girl he want. Then have a family with her bu-but what about me?" Draco stopped as the image of Harry having a family with someone else, clenched his heart. He took a deep breath to control his fast beating heart before continue,
"He is still unknown to the fact that he has a power to destroy me. I am just trying to make him fall in love with me before I lose myself."
Draco stopped before taking a deep breath," I really have no idea that why I told you this but trust me I don't have any evil intentions for him." Draco startled as a soft covered his rough one and glanced at Hermoine, who was looking back at him with a soft smile on her face.
"You have him, Draco." Hermoine patted the back of his hand before pulling it away.
"Huh?"
Hermoine smiled widely as she recalled the time when she asked Harry about Draco and his relationship," as you said, I know him well. I know that he likes you more than a friend. But you have to work hard to gain his love and make him accept you fully. I don't have any problem with you guys. If Harry is happy with you then you have my full support but if you try to break his heart then I'll hunt down your sorry ass." Hermoine said with a warning in the last.
"Wha_? Are you not against us"?Hermoine chuckled at his big eyes and confused face.
"No. I am not. I saw you guys at the parking lot of the club and asked Harry about it. At first, he deny it but soon accept it as I said that you're not good for him. I have never saw him that happy and carefree since his last break-up which was", Hermoine stopped as she focused to remember about his last relationship, "maybe 4 years ago. He loved her too much but she left him in the end."
Hermoine sighed then shook her head, she didn't want to remember that time when Harry was too broken " But you makes him happy. He is more alive now. He is an outgoing man but still not want to love another person. But he likes you. He was angry at me because I wanted to know about his girlfriend which happened to be you."
Draco chuckled while nodding at her. "Yeah. He was super angry at you."
"Yeah. But I want to know. I don't want him to get hurt again. I'm happy that you loves him. Your gender doesn't matter as long as he is happy with you. You have a long road ahead but trust me, your prize is with you at every step. Just follow your heart and you'll have him where you want." With that Hermoine stood up and collected her purse in her hand. She glanced at her orange juice and sighed to see a napkin beside it with a number written on it. She took the napkin and torn it apart.
"Now I'm going. Ron is waiting for me. Beside, it's late and Harry might be waiting for you as well." Hermoine smirked as Draco's eyes bulged out at the mention of time and Harry.
"And one more thing. Don't tell Harry about our meeting. Let him play as he want." After gaining a node from Draco, Hermoine turned around and walk ahead with the clicking of her high heels. Draco fisted out his wallet and left a couple of dollars notes on the table before following her lead.
Before Draco would step outside the restaurant, the vibration of his phone stopped him. With a slight sigh, he grabbed his phone and pull it out from his pants' pocket and grinned to see Harry's number, flashing on the screen.
Draco swiped his tumb over received icon and held the phone up, near to his ear while twisting the door knob and stepped out, "Hey Harry."
"Where are you?" Draco grinned to imagine Harry's pouting face then waved at Hermoine as she drove off by near with a knowing glint in her eyes.
"I am on my way. I was stuck in some office work and now I am free. I will be there soon." Draco walked over his car then unlocked it before getting inside. He put the phone on loud speaker while inserting the key in the keyhole.
"Hello?" Draco asked when the other side hadn't replied.
"Hmm?"
"Are you ok Harry?" Draco started the car as the weather turned cold and clouds, darken. He looked out with a smile then drove over in the familiar path of his apartment.
"I am ok. Just come soon. And I am hungry. So uumm wanna pizza?" Harry asked as Draco could easily hear some rustling noises from the other side.
"Order your favorite one. Okay?"
"Ok. Now drive properly. See you soon."
"Ok. Bye." With that they cut the call and Draco smiled by recalling his sudden meeting with Hermoine.
"She is a good friend." Draco said to himself then switched on the music and started to move his head as the music blust inside his car.
