Music blared frrom the other side of Hermione's door. She heard people laughing lover the music. She despised when Draco had these parties when she was there. She dared not go out, for she knew they wouldn't let her back in her own room. So she stayed locked up in her room, afriad of a few drunk people. Why am i afraid of them? Maybe i should go out for a minute, maybe i might have a little fun, nothing wrong with that.. Hermione thought to herself as she closed her potions book. She walked over to her door, and opened i to see her fellow classmates rubbing up on each other heavily. liquor bottles were in everyone's hand. A voice boomed over everyone. Of course the King of parties Draco Malfoy.

"Everyone that wants to stick around for Dare Double Dare and other Partaay games can stay, all you others go back to your dorms. Hermione laughed as half of the people left. Draco spotted her from across the room. he jumped off the sofa and walked over to her.

"Granger, didn't you hear me? If you're not going to play, get back to your dorm."

"Wel, if you dont want me to play i'll just go back then" Hermione started to turn back to her room. Maybe it was the alcohol, but Draco didnt want her to leave the party. he went to grab her arm, but stopped himself.

"Oy Granger, you want to play with us?" Draco asked a smile on his face. Hermione eyed him curiously.

"Sure Malfoy, I'll play your little game," Hermione walked towards the corner of the room as someone threw her a green glass bottle. She tipped the neck of the bottle and took a swig of the liquid. Draco watched her in confusion, and joined the rest of the party at the other side of the room. This night is going to be very, very fun. Draco smiled to himslef as hermione drank down the whole bottle.

An hour later everyone playing the game was flat out drunk. They started playing kiss, snog or Dare and Hermione kept getting picked for the snogggin portion of it. Rumor had it that she was fantastic but no one trusted the rumor, unil tonight when half the boys there could vouch for whoever came up with it. Hermione's face was red with drunkness, she was sitting on top of the sofa laughing at the dare that Pansy had to do. Pansy turned to Hermione, a drunken scowl planted on her face.

"hermione im going to pick something for you do do... Go snog DRACO in that cupboard over there," Pansy pointed her wand to the wall and a cupboard magiacally appeared. Hermione laughed and walked over to the cupboard. Draco followed her a smile whipped onto his face. She got in first and let him in while she shut the door. It started really sweet, but Hermione was not messing around anymore, her arms were in a secure hold behind Draco's neck. One of Draco's hands were on Hermione's butt, while the other reached down and grabbed her thigh, pulling it up onto his hip. He manuevered so her back was on the wall and kissed her forcefully, nad she returned with suck force and compassion, it made Draco a little afraid, but what worse could she do? She was drunk, and wont remember any of this tomorrow. Hermione nibbled on Draco's lip, which made a small moan escape his mouth. Luckily Pansy made the cupboard sound proof and no one heard him. Hermione stopped the kiss and giggled. Draco left small hard kisses going along her neck all the way to her mouth once again. There was a knock on the cupboard door.

"Alright, you two out of there," Pansy yelled. they both came out, their hair was messy and their clothes were wrinkled. Everyone was in a fit of laughter. They all pledged that anything that happened at the party was to be kept a secret, and never told again. Hermione laughed nad agrred, no one needed to know that she snogged Draco or any other boys there. Finally at the party ended because Pansy and another Slytherin boy started to have sex in Draco's room. Draco wasn't taht botherd that pansy was having sex with one of his friends, just he'd rather it not be in his room. Everyone left except the Head dorm except Draco and Hermione, who stayed on the floor near the fireplace. Hermione was cradled in Draco's lap. Her eyes were half open but she looked up at Draco, there wasfire in his eyes, or was that the reflection of the flames of the fireplace. She had no idea, but he looked back into her yes and kissed her. He held her close, knowing that she would never let him do this again. When they stopped Hermione swallowed hard.

"Draco..,"

"Yes Hermione?"

"I want to be with you, i have for while now, but i was too stubborn and nervous to say anything, i'm sorry," hermione whisperd into his shirt.

"Now, love everything will be okay, just stay with me and it'll all be alright. okay?" Hermione looked back up at him, tears at the rim of her eyes.

"I'll stay as long as you want me," Hermione looked deep in his eyes, he inched his face closer to hers, and when they're noses touched her stopped and replied.

"I've been wanting you forever Hermione, stay as long as you like." And they kissed. Draco kept holding Hermione, until she was asleep, and carried her to her room. He lay her down on her bed carfully, afraid to stir her. She looked like a porcelin angel. Brown curls fell on her face and her gently pushed them aside to reveal freckled cheeks and rosy lips. Draco kissed those lips softly and walked quietly out of her room, his heart full of regret and longing. But she would never rember the things that happened or the things he and she had said, because she was drunk, and by tomorrow her memory would fade. But Draco wished that she would remember what she said and how she made him feel. He wanted her to be his nad no one elses, but how to prove she felt the same way? He couldnt ask her, because by tomorrow she would forget everything that happened. And that fact made the Tough Slytherin Prince cry himself to sleep that night.
