A/N: this is my first fanfic but I'll try my best to not let it suck. It's not HBP compatible since I hate it when Draco's an ass and Dumbledore's dead. Enjoy!

Chapter 1
Hermione woke up rubbing her head. Why did it feel so cramped and dark? She looked around and from what she could tell, she was in a small room with no windows. She quickly pulled out her wand and muttered, "lumos" to find that she was not alone, but with an unconscious Draco Malfoy. After trying to open the door, finding that it was locked, Hermione tried to use spells to get out but it appeared useless.
How the hell did I end up here?!? We were doing patrols last night and next thing I know I'm here with ferret boy! Great, out of all people to be trapped in a closet with. Speaking of his highness, looks like somebody's starting to wake up.
Draco sat up quickly once he realized he was not in his expensive bed down in the Slytherin dungeons but somewhere very cramped and uncomfortable. He looked around to see that Hermione Granger, the Gryffindor princess, was sitting right across from him. "don't think that I'm not thrilled to see you here Granger, but what the hell are we doing here, why didn't you just open the door and leave?"
Hermione sighed, the next few hours, or however long we'll be in here are NOT going to be fun. "Malfoy, we're stuck in here," Hermione said calmly.
"WHAT"
"I said, Malfoy, we're trapped in this bloody closet until someone finds us."
Not believing her, Malfoy went through the same spells as her, trying to open the door but with no affect. "HELP, GET ME THE BLOODY HELL OUT OF HERE!"
Hermione rolled her eyes, "Honestly Malfoy, there's a silencing charm on the room, no one can hear you but me."
Draco stared at her, than quietly sat back down.
The two of them sat in silence for what felt like hours, even though it had only been a few minutes.
Draco sighed, "I'm bored."
Hermione just looked at him and said, "What do you want me to do about that?"
"What's that really embarrassing muggle game with the questions?"
"am I hearing this correctly, Draco Malfoy wants to play truth or dare?" Hermione said, smirking.
"yes, truth or dare Granger?
"oh, um…dare," Hermione said, startled. "we're trapped in a broom closet together so what's the worst that you can make me do?" Instead of answering, Draco just grinned, making Hermione feel uneasy.
After a minute or two Draco grinned even wider and said, "Hermione, I dare you, to give a lap dance to the two guys you see no matter who they are." When Hermione raised her eyebrows at him he said quickly, "that is, except for me."
To his surprise she smiled sweetly at him and said, "of course I will, Draco, but only if you propose to McGonagall in the great hall at dinner." When Draco protested, Hermione said "that is, unless your scared?" Unable to turn down the challenge he agreed, but very hesitantly.
"Ok, since I basically just took a dare I'll ask you the question, truth or dare Granger?" Draco said.
"Truth"
"hmm…Granger, are you still a virgin?" Draco said evilly.
Once again, Hermione startled him saying, very calmly, "no."
Draco's smug look fell and he said, "What the bloody hell, do you mean to tell me that the Golden Trio's very own Hermione Granger, bookworm of all bookworms, has done it…I'm impressed Granger," he said smiling. When Hermione glared at him he said, "Ok, I have to know, who did you do it with?"
Hermione smiled and said, "I'm very sorry to disappoint you Malfoy, but that was not part of the question so, truth or dare?"
Malfoy, after cursing his own stupidity, said "truth."
Hermione looked at him in the eyes before saying "do you really think of 'mudbloods' as people who are not worth anything?"
"no," Draco said, examining the floor, which had become very interesting in the last minute. "that's what my father taught me to believe, but after spending the first few years of Hogwarts away from him, I realized otherwise and started thinking for myself."
Draco, expecting Hermione to not want to talk to him anymore, was very taken aback when Hermione asked, "what made you change your mind about everything?"
Still looking down, Draco mumbled, "you." When Hermione encouraged him to go on he said "I was taught that since I was a pureblood and since my family were supporters of you-know-who we were the best. After coming to Hogwarts I just couldn't get why I wasn't the absolute best in all of my classes and I couldn't get why I wasn't the best at quidditch either. When I realized who I was second best to in both these things, I was completely stunned. A 'mudblood' and the great Harry Potter were better than I was, and that questioned everything I had believed my whole life. I realized that what I had been taught by my father was a load of crap and I was able to actually make decisions for myself."
Before saying the next thing, Draco finally looked up and made eye contact with a genuinely interested Hermione. "you see Hermione, I was second best only to you, a muggleborn, and I couldn't get that. I guess I should probably say thank you since if you hadn't been here in school than I would still be a heartless ignorant bastard and I should probably say I'm sorry for still acting like an ignorant bastard even though I hated doing it."
Hermione didn't know what to say so silence filled the room. Draco would have bet money that Hermione would be furious with him and make it seem like he wanted to be a deatheater like his father and that he was lying straight to her face. Instead, Hermione sat across from him with a contemplating look on her face.
Hermione turned to Draco after a few minutes and said, "Ok, now it's you turn to ask me truth or dare."
Quickly getting over his shock, Draco said "oh, right…truth or dare?"
"well, as much as I would just love to strip for someone as well as give them a lap dance, I have to go with truth."
Draco grinned at this and said, "Well than Hermione, who did you sleep with?"
Hermione had completely forgotten that she told him about not being a virgin and immediately hit herself on the head for picking truth. Sighing Hermione muttered something but Draco was unable to hear it. Grinning he asked her to repeat herself and got a glare from Hermione that would have easily killed him if looks could kill.
"you suck, you do know that Draco Malfoy."
"yup, but you're avoiding my question Ms. Granger," Draco replied very smugly.
"ok…well…um…"
"God damnit Hermione, just tell the boy that you slept with," Draco said, very amused.
As he said this Hermione decided to get it over with and said, "Fine, I slept with Ron after having a little too much to drink at a bar, and,"
"What? How the bloody hell is there an 'and' after that." Draco said smiling. "Do you mean to tell me Ms. Granger that you have slept with two people, who would have thought."
Glaring, Hermione asked, "Draco, if you want me to stop now I can." After Draco hurriedly apologized and asked her to continue, Hermione said, "well, during the summer I went to a party and I started kissing this guy from school and after one thing led to another," Hermione blushed. "I slept with Blaise Zabini."
Draco howled with laughter but than immediately stopped, "wait a minute, Blaise is my best mate, my only real friend, do you mean to tell me that he slept with you and didn't tell me?"
Hermione smirked and just winked at Draco, who was scowling.
"now, I believe it is my turn to as the question Draco, so truth or dare?"
"Dare, definitely."
Raising her eyebrows at him Hermione thought about her options and said, "In the next potions class," Draco's face fell at this. "I dare you to make your potion explode, and ask Snape for private lessons from Neville."
Draco was shocked, but still very amused, "Ms. Granger, I think that you are definitely wasted as being a Gryffindor, are you sure that you weren't really meant to be in Slytherin?"
Hermione laughed, "and you Draco, seem to be showing off your teddy bear like qualities, are you sure you weren't meant to be in Hufflepuff?" After saying this Hermione broke out into hysterical laughing and was shortly joined by Draco.
After taking a few deep breaths, they both smiled at each other and looked deep into each other's eyes. Without thinking, Draco leaned in and kissed Hermione lightly on the lips. Hermione quickly got over her shock and deepened the kiss, putting her arms around his neck. After a moment of softly kissing one another, Hermione opened her mouth, allowing Draco full access, and their light kissing turned to full out snogging.
And that's the way they were found by a small group of people consisting of Ron, Snape, Harry, Ginny, Blaise and Pansy who were apparently a search party since they had been missing for quite awhile.
Hermione and Draco, completely oblivious to their little audience until they heard Ron shout, "What the bloody hell is going on?!?"
