This is a little oneshot inspired by a dream I had. Enjoy! –Shelby-

"What are you doing here, Malfoy?" Hermione reached inside her robe to extract her wand. Draco stood still and breathed deeply. Draco turned around slowly and smiled even as the girl before him raised her wand up between his eyes.

"Would you be afraid if I held your hand?" Draco spoke quietly. The girl lowered the wand from his face and blushed delicately. She put the wand in her robe.

"No," Hermione answered simply. Draco stepped forward and linked his fingers through hers. Her skin was baby soft; his skin radiated warmth.

"Would you be afraid if I held you against me?" Draco asked. Hermione blushed and squeezed his fingers gently.

"No," she whispered. Draco let go of her hand and wrapped his arms around her, pulling her to him. He stopped once her body settled into the cleft of his own.

"Would you be afraid," Draco whispered, "if I caressed your face?" His words were soft and hot against her cheeks.

"No," she replied, her breath floated up Draco's nose and made him shiver with pleasure. He lifted a hand and softly traced the curves of Hermione's face; following the panes and hollows of her cheeks, his thumb brushing the soft swell of her bottom lip…slightly fuller than the top, he'd noticed. She leaned into his fingers and slid her hands up behind his neck. He smiled.

"Would you be afraid," Draco breathed, "if I kissed you?" Hermione let out a soft sigh.

"No." She stopped breathing. Draco pulled her head to his own, gently, and too stopped breathing when his lips touched hers. She willed herself closer to his body and moaned softly. Draco held her like he'd never let her go. Draco broke away from the kiss reluctantly.

"Would you be afraid, "Draco's voice was thick from emotion, "if I told you 'I love you'?" Draco wiped a single tear from Hermione's pale cheek. Her dark lashed fanned out across her porcelain features.

"Yes," she gasped quietly. Draco tilted up her face to look at him.

"Why are you afraid?" he asked.

Hermione let out a soft sob. "Because… I love you, too." Draco wrapped her in his arms and let the tears fall.

"Don't worry, love. I'm afraid, too."

Yeah, cutey little oneshot… So please R&R!
