There's smut at the end of the chapter, feel free to skip that if you don't like it, nothing happens after the smut

Draco twirled Hermione around in their living room. It was a nice quiet afternoon and Hermione had put music on when a nice slow song came on. Draco wasted no time in standing up and grabbing Hermione's hand to dsnce with her.

Hermione giggled placing a soft hand on his cheek smiling brightly at him as they continued swaying to the song. Draco leaned into her touch, he wished he could stay like this forever. Just them together in their little bubble but without that bloody curse.

The song slowly came to a stop, they stood still as another more upbeat song started playing. Hermione gently pulled him into a soft kiss. Draco immediately melted into it letting hwr take control.

They pulled apart only to press their foreheads together. Hermione smiled at him before sitting down. Draco looked at her worryingly, Hermione shook her head, "just need a little rest, can you pass me my book please?"

Draco handed her the book she had been reading earlier that day and sst next to her. Hermione scooted even closer leaning into him. Draco kissed the top of her head.

Ever since their flight Hermione had started feeling more frail. He was desperate to find something thst could help her. Anything.

Later that week Blaise brought him his findings.

Draco left Hermione in their apartment with a wheelchair he bought as a mobility aid in case she needed to get around but couldn't walk. He met up with his friend at his office.

"I cam cure her cursed blood but I don't think I can do anything for her heart Dray." Blaise admitted after showing him his research.

Draco felt tears threatening to fall from his eyes, "are you sure this will work?"

"at least for some time, might not work forever."

He looked at the foto of Hermione on his desk, "I'll talk to her, see if she wants to extend her time a bit."

Blaise nodded, "tell her thst I'll keep on working on it. I promise."

Draco nodded closing his eyes, merlin why was this so hard? If only he could transfer the curse onto himself, let her live a nice full life. If only.

Hermione sat on hwr wheelchair processing everything her boyfriend had told her. "if it means I get to spend more time with you then I'll do it."

Draco kneeled down in front of her, "are you sure?" Hermione nodded. "alright, I'll tell Blaise."

"can we go to the park? I need some fresh air."

"of course my love."

Hermione stared at Blaise as he prepared her arm, "I trust you Blaise."

Blaise smiled at her, "Granger I promise I'll find a permanent solution. Can't let the world lose that bright mind of yours."

He slowly injected the solution into her blood stream, "it should make you-" before he could finish Hermione doubled over emptying her stomach into a bucket he had already placed down, "do just that." he looked down at the vomit, it was all black as he expected. "well I'll have to study that now. Lovely."

Draco casted a claning spell on his girlfriend, "what's thst?"

"well my hypothesis is that it's just part of her curse that won't you know curse me. I'll still be very careful though."

"thank you Blaise." Hermione said in a small voice.

"of course Granger, that should keep you healthy for at least two weeks but if it doesn't Draco will keep one injection with him at all times and you can always send a patronus tk come get me."

The couple nodded exchangimg one last round of thank yous before leaving.

Hermione used Draco's arm as support as they walked. Draco leaned down to kiss her cheek, "I've been thinking about how lovely Paris is at this time of the year, would you like to come with me?"

Hermione's eyes lit up with excitement immediately. Draco chuckled, "i guess that's a yes."

"of course I would love to go."

_________

Hermione looked out of their hotel room, sure Paris wasn't exactly whst she imagined but she loved it. Specifically with the man thst was standing right next to her. They got there in the morning and went looking around for a bit.

"I want to remember this moment forever." Hermione said.

Draco chuckled leaning down to kiss her exposed shoulder. Hermione arched her neck to the side gibing him a silent invitation to continue the soft kissed along her skin. Draco did just that.

Hermione let out a small noise before turning him around amd leading him to their bedroom closing the curtains behind.

"Are you sure?" Draco asked as he was pushed onto the bed.

Hermione nodded biting her lip, "just be gentle with me."

Draco traiked his hand to her hips, "I'll always be gentle with you but if you need to stop or to pause to take a breather just let me know."

Hermione kissed him, "Don't worry, with that thing Blaise injected me with I feel good to go."

Draco smiled at her picking her up and gently laying her on the bed. He placed soft kisses along her jaw before taking off the silk top of her pyjamas.

Hermione blushed as his lips tickled their way up her stomach. "Merlin you're gorgeous."

Hermione let out a small laugh, "not the first time you've seen me naked."

Draco's warm breath hit her skin, "true but I can't get enough of you." He gently massaged om of her breasts drawing a soft gasp from her, "I'm going to make you feel so good."

"please."

He slowly slipped off her bottoms kissing softly her stomach again. "relax for me." Hermione nodded taking a deep breath. Draco looked up at her for consent, she nodded opening her legs. He leaned down kissing her thigh then got closer to her vagina. He gave her a long deep lick against her entrance making her buck her hips im surprise.

Draco pulls her closer, he could breath again later. Right now all thst mattered was making the woman above him moan amd scream in pleasure. He looked up seeing her with her eyes pressed closer and her mouth hanging open. "look at me Granger."

Hermione opens her eyes and looked down mesmerised at the sight. The blond was licking her amd suckimg on her clit like he was starving and only she could fill that void.

She felt a finger prod at her entrance, she moaned shamelessly wanting more. Gods this was addicting, Draco seemed to know everything she wanted and more.

"Draco, fuck, ah!"

Draco licked her clean of her orgasm and looked uo at her with a grin on his face. Hermione panted laying back down. "it's so hot when you curse. Let's see if I can make you scream again, yeah?"

Hermione nodded frantically, "I need you."

"you have all of me." he quickly undressed himself lining up against her entrance. "I'll go slow, you set the pace."

He slowly pushed in moaning at how wet and opened she was for him. Hermione grabbed onto his arms grounding herself, "Draco."

Draco looked at her watching proudly as she enjoyed herself in this very moment. He made a conscious effort to not move her legs too much reminding himself thst she was still very much sick and she would definitely feel this tomorrow. "I love how you say my name."

Hermione let out an airy laugh, "I'll say it more if you get on with it."

With that Draco started moving obeying her every word, deeper, faster, slower, it didn't matter he would let her set the pace. She kept on moaning his name and curses as he continued thrusting innand out of her. "Dray-I'm close. Oh gods."

Draco kissed her bringing both of them over the edge. He quickly casted a protective spell and cleaning spell. Hermione smiled sleepily at him, "I love you so much, thank you."

"I'm glad you enjoyed yourself now let me help you get dressed my love."

He carefully slipped Hermione's pyjamas back on on her body and did the spell to monitor her health. Hermione kissed him one last timw before cuddling uo next to him and falling asleep with a peaceful look on her face.
