Hey everyone! Its Tara and Katie here, back with the sequel to Draco's Dilemma! Hope you all enjoy the story!
Summary:
Tara Felton has seemed very distant from Draco lately. Too distant. Many people try to tell Draco that Tara is running off with other guys, but Draco is too young, naïve and in love to believe anyone. Finally, he decides to take matters in his own hands. Relying in the help from his ex-girlfriend Hermione Donaldson (who is now happily married to Lamark Donaldson), will Draco Malfoy ever fully win Tara back in order to exchange her promise ring for an engagement ring?
Chapter 1
Draco sat back in the leather armchair and looked around the dark, empty room. Once again, Tara was gone. Where? He had no idea. Here lately Tara seemed to be farther and farther away from Draco. Yeah sure, they lived in the same house. They shared the same bed. And throw in a bathroom, a kitchen and a coat closet. But Tara was distant, even when she was right next to Draco…
Sighing, Draco thought back to their seventh year of Hogwarts. Draco had fallen so hard for Tara that he had left Hermione Granger for her. He loved her more than anything. After all, she was the one who had been wearing his promise ring for the past four years. It seemed centuries ago when Draco had given her that ring. She still wore it, and Draco had plans to replace it with an engagement ring, but there was almost a blur around Tara. Many people had told Draco that Tara had been seen with numerous other guys. But Draco, being in love, young, and just plain naïve, didn’t even notice.
“Hey baby,” a voice cooed from behind Draco’s chair.
He turned to see Tara stuffing her coat into the coat closet. She walked into the kitchen and conjured up a cup of coffee. She looked over at Draco to see him staring at her.
“Where have you been?” Draco asked.
“Oh, just out with some friends,” Tara said, sipping the coffee and flipping through today’s Daily Prophet.
Draco wanted to believe her, he really did, but there was something holding him back. He stood up and walked over to Tara, wrapping his arms around her tiny waist.
“You love me, right?” Draco asked, looking down at her.
“Of course I do, baby!” Tara said, smiling up at him.
Draco slid his hands into the two back pockets of Tara’s jeans.
“Really?” Draco questioned.
“Would I be living with you if I didn’t?” Tara said.
She pulled herself from Draco’s grasp and put her empty coffee cup in the sink. She walked past Draco, shaking her head, and down the hall, towards their bedroom. Conjuring up a hair elastic, she pulled her long hair up and out of her face and into a ponytail. She flicked her wand and her clothes changed into a pair of long, soft silk pajamas. She went into the bedroom and slid her feet into some fuzzy slippers.
She expected Draco to follow her in the room, but he didn’t.
“Is there something wrong?” Tara asked, appearing back in the kitchen.
I hope not… Draco thought. “Oh, no, not at all,” Draco stuttered, sounding a bit distracted with his thoughts.
Tara cocked an eyebrow at him but went back into the bedroom. Draco followed behind her, almost in like a zombie. He too changed into his pajamas. Tara walked over to him and wrapped her arms around his neck.
“I love you,” she said, giving him a small kiss.
“I love you too,” Draco mumbled.
Tara smiled up at him and walked over to the bed. She pulled the covers back and got underneath them and pulled them over her. Draco slid in the bed next to her and Tara soon fell asleep, her back to Draco. He laid there, facing her, wondering what had been going on with her lately. But trying to look on the bright side, he pretended it was nothing and fell into a dreamless sleep.
