Title: Secret Sinful Kisses
Chapter: The Beginning
Rating: PG-13
Genre: Angst/ Romance
Summary: Hermoine and Draco share a few Secret Sinful Kisses. Does Hermoine want to take the relationship further? She hasn't told Ron or Harry yet. She still hates Draco so why does she still love him?
"Wand-check, robes-check, books-check" Hermoine checked her list for things needed for Hogwarts over and over making sure that all her things were in place. She placed her things back in her trunk and sat on top of the trunk.
Hermoine was bored and annoyed that Harry and Ron did not even owl her yet. Sure they owled her over the summer- but she wanted to have someone to talk to. Growing up, as an only child was not what she enjoyed.
So, there she sat on her trunk packing her stuff for the tenth time. Being seventeen wasn't fun and "perky" she once heard her friend Ginny exclaim. In fact it was torture and depressing. Her father was so protective, and her mother did not understand that she still needed "air" that every teen needed "air".
She curled up on her trunk . "Why is life so hard for a teen?" Crooksanks curled up next to Hermoine as she began to massage his head, "Why can't they just let me be a damn teen?"
Hermoine closed her brown eyes in agony and drifted into sleep...
Running up the Hogwarts stairs.
UP
UP
UP
UP.
The towers felt like that they were reaching to the heavens. God she was almost there... she took a deep breath- don't stop Hermoine...god she was almost there.
Hermoine forced herself to reach high- aim high, achieve, move, move through all the anguish and to burst through all the damn barriers her mom and dad tried so hard to conceal.
The cold air stung her nose and her lugs. It was getting harder to breath but she kept going.
She went to the highest tower. There she cried and she was free- free away from her parents and Malfoy... She was free.
Hermoine awoke from her nap from a tapping on her window. She opened up her window and let the owl in. It swooped around her room gracefully and landed on her bed. She walked over and picked up the letter.
There, in fine print she saw it was a Hogwarts letter. She quickly tore through the envelope and she read:
Dear Ms. Granger,
Hogwarts is glad to inform you that you will be Head Girl of your House this year. You are scheduled to meet up at the end of the Great feast where you will be told what you are to do then. Ms. Granger I am very, very delighted that you excelled so far. I am truly looking forward to seeing you this year Yours truly,
Professor Mc Gonagal
Head of Gryffindor House
Hermione kissed her note multiple times, looked at her perfect badge, and smiled. She tossed herself on the bed and thought "Finally, something to look forward to at Hogwarts this year" she grinned.
There was another tap at her window. Two owls, one recognized as Harry's owl and one recognized as Ron's. She smiled widely, maybe they didn't forget about her after all.
