'How the bloody hell did I get into this mess?' The frazzled brunette grunted as she frantically searched the stone wall for any type of opening. 'Great, now I'm starting to sound like Ron too.' "Are you just going to stand there?!" Hermione hissed at the platinum blond boy standing behind her, leaning against the wall as though nothing major was happening.
"Sounds like a plan to me Granger, you got us into this predicament, now best that you fix it." Her insides boiled at his words, she never knew she could despise someone as much as she did with him. "I got us into this?! You seriously must be joking?! I want to just…UGH…you little…ugh….!" I didn't happen often, but Hermione was speechless, she was so frustrated that she could hit him, wouldn't be too hard, she'd done it before. She got caught up in her day dream and almost smiled at the memory before becoming once again, extremely aware that she was stuck in the room of requirements with none other then Draco Malfoy.
She had been walking to class and minding her own business when a door out of nowhere opened and she had been pulled through it by a pair of strong hands. "Now why exactly did you grab me in the first place?" Her frustration was very evident on her usually soft features. "Simple, I thought you were Pansy, she was supposed to meet me here." He shrugged nonchalantly, still not taking on any of the responsibility. "I still fail to see how you grabbing me by 'mistake' is in any way my fault?" She turned away from him once again, taking her wand out and vocalizing as many spells as she could remember associated with escaping. None of which made any kind of change to the cold stone wall before her.
"Well you shouldn't have been down this way and you must have done something for the door to mysteriously vanish. It was here until you showed up." Suddenly his nails seemed very interesting as he continued to show zero interest in the girl before him or exiting the room. "First of all, your logic is flawed and second of all, when in the name of Merlin would I ever choose to be trapped for an indefinite amount of time in a room with you, everyone knows I hate you."
If Hermione didn't know any better she would swear she saw a twinge of hurt behind his grey eyes. "If anyone is allowed to be upset it's me. I should be shagging right now; yet I'm trapped with you." He made an evident show of looking her up and down, as though quite disappointed by her. She once again saw the familiar wall reform behind his cold eyes, as he once again looked away from her. "Well I'm sorry that I kept you from shagging, It's not like I didn't have anything exciting planned for my day as well." She spat her words at him. "Oh really?" he asked curiously. "What exactly did you have planned that was so thrilling?" He seemed slightly amused by her words, interested in what she might come up with. Her pulse increased as she tried to come up with something believable to say. "Not that I need to tell you, but I was going to send an owl to a very attractive boy from back home." She internally scolded herself for lying, and doing a terribly unconvincing job of it. She turned away in hopes that he couldn't read her expression, faking extreme interest once again in the stones before her.
"Whatever you say Granger." He scoffed with a slight chuckle. "I bet you are still a virgin." For the second time in minutes she was speechless again. Suddenly as though she was looking down upon herself from above she heard herself speak. "Unfortunately I am, but I wish I wasn't." It took all in her power not to snap her hand over her mouth in shock; 'where in the bloody hell did that come from?'
His expression articulated everything she was feeling, utter astonishment. But in typical Malfoy fashion his expression went from shock to a mischievous grin. His gorgeous mouth curled into a smirk. "I'm feeling especially generous today; maybe it's time someone teaches you a thing or two for a change." He ran his warm finger down her check, sending shivers through her body. "What do you say?"
