AN: this randomly came to me and I couldn't get the idea out of my head so please don't hate me. I don't ship Hermione and Cormac this was a random yet completely brilliant... Dream.
Disclaimer: I am not J.K. Rowling therefore I own nothing.
Hermione sat in a chair in the Gryffindor common room in shock. Why had she just done that? Why did she ask Cormac Mclaggen,of all people, to Slughorn's Christmas party? She hated him. She would never fall for that arrogant arsehole. Yet she'd asked him, he'd said yes and now she would have to face the consequences.
Cormac was delighted. He'd developed feelings for Hermione last year. Now she had asked him to Slughorn's Christmas party. He looked over at her. She seemed to be regretting her decision. However they would enter the party as acquaintances and leave as boyfriend and girlfriend. But how, if she hated him? His thoughts then strayed to the love potion stored in his trunk.
the party
Hermione searched the crowds looking for Cormac. She never thought she would do that but she was. He had gone to get her a drink so she had taken the opportunity to find her friends. But now her parched throat was screaming for the drink.
Cormac turned around in a circle careful not to spill the drinks he was holding. He'd only been gone a few minutes and Hermione had disappeared. How had she done that. However the smile returned to his face when he saw her coming towards him.
"Hey,beautiful" he muttered kissing her cheek.
"You don't need to do that" she replied taking her drink. Cormac just smiled. Hermione downed her drink in one go. She then stared at Cormac in shock.
"What?" she muttered as Cormac dragged her over to a corner.
"Never mind" he muttered. Cormac looked up at the mistletoe hanging above their heads and smiled. Before he lost courage he pulled Hermione close and kissed her.
They left the party as boyfriend and girlfriend. As Cormac walked up to his dormitory that night he was delighted. After all, what could go wrong?
AN: So that's it. Please say what you think. Also, should I carry on? I feel like there's more to be said but I want to know your opinion.
