Unwanted Feelings

He sat on the bank of the lake with his four friends, his blond head glistening in the sun. Crabbe and Goyle were muttering something about bulling too each other and laughing at each other stupidity, Blaise and Pansy were making out and Draco was staring half-heartedly across the lake. He was watching Scar-head and his band of followers (aka. Ron and Hermione) swimming on the other side of the water. She's hot he said to himself as Hermione Granger took her shirt off to revel her bikini and a voice in his mind replied your crazy. He couldn't help but think about the time when Hermione had punched him. He was so shocked by his own mind to think of anything other than how smooth her hand was, but that was in third year! They were now in sixth! So why couldn't he get it or her out of his mind?! She was a mudblood for god sake! Think of what your father would say Draco! Said the voice in his head…I know I know he replied….Ugh….I'm hearing voices in my head… like that isn't a sign that I'm going crazy!

Hermione Granger was happily hanging out with her two bestest friends in the whole world by the lake, when she heard laughter coming down coming down the hill to the castle. She looked over and saw the five slytherins she hated most sit down on a patch of grass on the opposite side of the lake. Immediately Blaise Zambini and Pansy Parkinson started snogging. Ughhhh… she thought and almost puked at the thought that slytherins can love. (1)

Harry Potter turned his head to see what caused Hermione's usually normal functioning brain too stop working and saw them.

"We should leave…," Harry said slowly, "We have quiditch practice soon Ron."

"Bloody hell Harry! It's only 3:30! Quiditch starts at seven!"

"Harry! Lets stay come on…I know! You guys brought your swimming stuff right... yeah? Kay! Lets go swimming!" she started stripping down to her bikini fully aware of Draco Malfoy's eyes on her. Without waiting for the boys she dived right in the lake, her normally curly hair going straight for once. She treaded water and glanced over at Draco who looked like he was debating in his head on whether to come and join the three musketeers. In truth, he was.

He watched Harry, Ron and Hermione having fun and splashing each other and thought about how much fun they must be having compared to him. It was getting dark by now by the look of Pansy's watch it was 6:30. Hermione, Harry and Ron were getting out, they left Hermione and ran up towards the Quiditch pitch.

"We should go," said Pansy separating herself from Blaise for the first time that night and probably the last, "Dinners probably ready."

"Yeah!" said Crabbe and Goyle together stumbling to get up.

"Idiots" Draco muttered aloud.

"Draco are you coming?"

"Umm…I'll stay here for a bit…save me a space. Yeah?"

"Sure"

Hermione climbed out the lake and saw that the only slytherin left was Malfoy and he was coming her way. She hurriedly grabbed her stuff and turned to go. She stopped and looked back when she heard a soft 'plop' in the water and saw her favourite necklace (2) sink into the deep black bellow.

"Oh No! No! No! No!" she exclaimed furious at herself for dropping it.

"I'll get it for you" said a deep voice too her left.

"Not you! Not now!" she yelped into the face of he slytherin prince. He pulled his shirt off and dived in. Hermione was silent and terrified because neither Draco nor the necklace had resurfaced for 5 minutes. She turned away with tears running down her face now not only had she lost her most prized possession she had now killed a person, but he was her worst enemy so why did she care so much?! She heard a deep cough behind and turned so fast that water droplets flew out of her hair. She saw to her disbelief a blond shirtless boy leaning on the edge on the platform.

"Forgot about me so easily did you?" Draco said grinning from ear to ear, his blue-grey eyes sparkling. She was speechless and she watched him climb out of the water, walk up to her and place the rose quartz necklace around her neck.

"Thank you so much Draco!!!" she squealed and embraced the shocked boy, he didn't what to do. His brain wanted pull away but his arms disobeyed and embraced back. When they finally pulled away there was an awkward silence until Hermione stuttered

"Seeing as were both here…umm…will you walk up to the-"

"Sure" Draco interrupted, his grin growing wider by the second.
