Chapter 48:
Draco knew things for certainty:
1. His anger issues actually haven’t been resolved
2. Despite his best effort and gifting and offerings, he was still absolutely an asshole to Granger
And reluctantly he admitted after the night he had was
3. He undeniably had a thing for Granger, more than just a little thing if he was honest. Why else would he react so strongly? He had mulled the thought over and over again and he japed and stabbed and crushed and punched all night in the room of requirement. His anger was stemming from this “thing” he had for her.
Even in his fury, he kept thinking about how close they were together before she stormed out, how beautifully she smelled or how her lips quivered in the slightest in her anger. He found that her absolute hate for him didn’t dissuade that little voice inside him that urged as they stood close, to just touch her lips.
He considered if this was a result of his recent dry spell, but the more he fought with the room, the more he fought with himself, the more it was clear. The great Draco Malfoy it seems has harbored a nasty “thing” for Granger for quite a bit of time.
He wondered when it all began.
