Disclaimer: Nope not mine. Though it would be nice to be like J.K. Rowling and be richer than the Queen of England. Then I can own my own Draco Malfoy! Muahaha!

Summary: "…the explanation of why I am in the Head's common room, backing Draco Malfoy up against a bookcase." DMHG
Hermione Jane Granger did not want to be there.
Really, you'd think seventh-year Gryffindor girls would overgrow "slumber parties".
Unfortunately for her, she had been tricked once again.
Earlier, Lavender and Parvati asked if she could help them with a potions assignment due the next day. And of course, she could never turn someone down a good tutoring lesson.
Unbeknowst to her, as she later that night entered their room to start the study lesson, she had been trapped into a, dare she say it... slumber party.
Yes, that's right, they had yet again made her join in, in their little circle of "fun" with Lavender Brown, Gryffindor's own little Pansy Parkinson, and Parvati Patil, Miss-I-need-the-bathroom-every-five-minutes-to-freshen-up-girl, Ginny, and other girls who she noticed as Luna Lovegood, Hannah Abbott, and a few unrecognizable faces.
Honestly, aside from the makeovers and girl-talk… slumber parties are merely a way for girls to get the gossip on who's been shagging who, who's on the "hot-list" these days, and how to get rid of yeasties.
Ugh.
And then the boy-talk. Oh noooo not that.
If she hears another, "Draco Malfoy is so hot!" she could quite possibly go on a massacre. Seriously.
Oh.
What is this?
Did they stop talking about their first sexual experiences and move onto breast-enhancing charms?
Nope.
They were playing…
"Truth or dare, Hermione want to play?"
Hermione sneered and gave them a look like, are you serious?
"C'mon 'Mione it'll be fun!"
"I hardly think so, Ginny." I said with an indifferent tone.
Lavender smirked, "Oh is Hermione scared?"
The girls 'ooh'-ed. Lavender and I were known to have small arguments, we weren't exactly friends but we weren't enemies either. But she did know how to get on my nerves, and right now was the time.
"Oh please! If I wanted to play such an immature game like this I could, err, go play wizard chess with Harry and Ron!" I said standing up and walking away from the circle of girls huddled together.
Lavender rose up from her sitting position and dared to retort, "Is Hermione backing away from a challenge? I didn't know Miss Bookworm was so afraid from a game of truth or dare."
Hey! This Hermione Granger isn't afraid of anything! Well… except the Dark Lord, clowns, and scary muggle movies, and- Okay well that's not the point.
Maybe I could play that stupid game… yeah that'll show them.
I smirked.
"You're on."
I sat back down to the empty spot of the circle, Lavender followed. "That's more like it."
"Well then let's get this going!" Ginny said, happily. Yeah, she's probably happy because someone might dare her to kiss Harry or something.
Anyways.
After a few truths later, and after Hermione found out Lavender apparently used to have a thing for Ron and Luna Lovegood has a fetish for feet, the first dare was called.
Ginny was dared to kiss Harry Potter.
Surprise, surprise.
After she tried to keep a straight face and managed not to burst out into squeals of joy she called upon me. Me!
"Hermione, truth or dare?"
My hands were sweating; my forehead grew hot as I debated silently whether to choose truth or dare.
Before the game started, Parvati cast a 'truth or dare' spell on us, which was to assure that we went through with the dare and told the truth. The spell would wear off in an hour or so and the dare spell had major exceptions like you could not be forced to kill someone or physically hurt someone… much.
Truth.
Hermione's life wasn't exciting but there were so many things she thought were best left private. And one minor question could lead to an answer Hermione would regret giving.
So… dare?
She'd done worse things, right? I mean being best friends with Harry Potter and Ron Weasley sure got her into some major shit so compared to that, a simple dare is nothing.
Right?
Screw it.
"Dare."
The girls around me wore surprised looks. What? Couldn't Hermione Granger do something "wild" sometime?
Whatever.
I smirked.
Ginny was at a lost for words, she turned to the other girls. They were whispering, apparently Ginny thought I would pick Truth since she didn't have a dare in mind. The whispering stopped and they all wore mischievous smiles, Ginny's the most mischievous of all.
"All right Hermione, since we know this is a one-in-a-lifetime thing that you'd do a dare for us we're going to make it big." She winked at the other girls.
Hermione groaned.
Using her time-turner and picking truth sounded so appealing right now.
Ginny continued, "So here's your dare. Hermione you ready?"
I piped, "Y-yes."
Crap. I sounded like a squealing pig about to be taken to the butcher. Sigh. Well let's get this over with.
Ginny smirked.
"Seduce Draco Malfoy."
For once in my life, I was at a loss for words.
---
And that is the explanation of why I am in the Head's common room, backing Draco Malfoy up against a wall.
---
Alright, well that's not all of it.
After the dare, let's just say I was too shocked than anything to do something at that moment.
Flashback
"You want me to what!"
The girls laughed, making my anger rise and my face resembling a steam engine.
"Calm down, Hermione."
"Ginny, how can I calm down when I am forced to… to seduce that prissy ferret?"
"Shush! Bugger Hermione, we haven't even told you all of what you're to do yet."
"…I have to do more!"
Lavender interjected, "More like the 'seduce Draco Malfoy' was in short terms of what we want you to do."
Ginny nodded and spoke, "We've established a list of things we want you to do to him."
"Parvati chose to speak at this moment, "Well not yet, we're still in order of what we want you to do to him."
I was flabbergasted and then an idea came to mind, "How do you know I'll go through with it?"
"Easy, Lavender has a bracelet," at this moment the girl Ginny spoke of took out the said bracelet, "that when put on the person who is to perform the said task will change color after the task is completed, or incompleted."
How did they get such things!
Lavender nodded at Ginny and pointed to her bracelet which was not the color of a stony grey, "In this case, if that said task is completed the bracelet will turn blue, if not completed, it will stay grey."
I groaned. Great, just great. Sighing, I asked them what they were going to ask me to do.
Parvati smiled and chose to answer, "While Ginny and Lavender were explaining to you the bracelet, Luna and I managed to create a list of things we want you to do. We'll be giving you what to do, one task at a time."
She handed a slip of paper containing the first task to me and I almost fainted as I read it aloud to them.
"Task one: Back Draco Malfoy up against a wall wearing a flashy nightgown… WHAT IN MERLIN'S NAME ARE YOU GUYS THINKING!"
All but I burst into laughter as I exploded at them.
What the? Ugh, seriously as if that was not enough, I continued reading the rest of the first task, "…Make sure your body touches his and make a sexy growl in his ear."
Oh god, oh god, oh god!
Sexy growl!
Surely these girls must be on crack!
…Or whatever Witches did these days.
They giggle once more as they saw the bewildered expression on my face.
"Great! Hermione just get familiarized with that first task, because you have until tomorrow night to complete it." Lavender smiled evilly as she said this.
I scowled at her.
"And exactly how am I supposed to get a 'flashy nightgown'"?
"…"
"…Are you kidding me, Hermione? You don't have one!"
I looked at them indifferently. Umm, three points to Parvati. Of course I don't have one!
…Should I?
Ginny smiled, "Its okay Hermione, you can borrow mine."
"Oh yay." I said in a not-so-pleased manner. "So how many of these tasks must I do?" I said in a bored tone.
"Ten. You'll have longer time periods than one day to complete each task, but just a tip, you should just get them over with as fast as you can, and it'll be easier that way."
"Yeah and who knows? Maybe you'll have a date for the end-of-the-year ball!" Ginny squealed excitedly.
Psht. So naïve.
---
The next day- 7PM. Hermione's room, preparing for the task
"Are you sure I should wear this?"
She looked at herself in the mirror of her room, Lavender, Parvati, and Ginny behind her, smiling evilly. She wore Ginny's silk nightgown. She had to admit, she didn't look half bad. She twirled around in the turquoise silk nightgown, admiring herself, albeit-discreetly, in the mirror. The silky gown, err, dress-more like it, stopped at about midway of her thighs, giving a good view of Hermione's legs. The edges were lined in black lace; it had a deep low cut.
Surely it would make any guy give a girl wearing it a double-take. Now, was Draco Malfoy one of these guys?
Hermione sighed. She glanced at her reflection again, apart from the dress, Parvati graciously gave Hermione a quick introduction to makeup, a little too intently.
How could anyone stand wearing this mascara? She was blinking like a Venus fly trap on crack! The pale pink lipstick wasn't very tasty either. Oh. She wasn't supposed to taste it? So maybe that's why it didn't taste very good.
On her wrist she wore the bracelet that would prove to them whether Hermione did what she was supposed to. Her hair was charmed so her curls were big and tamed. Her chocolate hair added to the sultry look.
Hermione laughed. Her? Sultry?
Riiight.
Well, tonight she'd have to be sultry. Just tonight...
… and for the remaining nine tasks she had to do.
She took a deep breath and faced the three girls, hands on her hips she gave them that are-you-happy look.
They clapped their hands together and squealed.
"Yeah, that should give Draco Malfoy a hard-on." Ginny smirked.
"Virginia Weasley!" Hermione mimicked her mother dramatically, albeit, jokingly.
"Yeah, yeah mother." Ginny pushed Hermione to the door leading to the common room.
It was then Hermione realized she was actually going to do it. She was going to seduce Draco Malfoy! Her eyes widened and she began to sweat.
They realized Hermione's tension and acted upon it, "It's alright, Hermione. You can do it! Work your stuff."
Lavender turned the door-knob as Parvati pushed her out the door. They giggled as they quickly closed the door, making sure Hermione owuldn't go in.
Hermione cursed as she heard them say 'Alohamora!' to the door.
No turning back now.
She took a step. And another. And another.
She had to fight the urge to turn back.
'It's easy, Hermione. Just go back.'
'No it's not…I can't show them I'm weak. I'll do this. I will.'
She smiled.
With a confident air around her she 'sauntered' into the common room making sure to do the 'sexy walk' Ginny showed her. She couldn't help but giggle inwardly how retarded this was!
Step, step, sway your hips c'mon you can do this!
She noticed Draco Malfoy himself was standing in front of the book case, picking through the mess of books set there. Hermione was unnoticed.
She took a deep breath…
'Here it goes.'
…And 'sexy walked' to the blonde haired Slytherin. It wasn't until Hermione leaned a hand on the bookcase inches next to Draco that he noticed her. She 'sexy smirked'.
"Mudblood, what in Merlin's name are you-"
Hermione took a step closer to him, pushing his back against the side of the bookcase. Her eyes not leaving his stormy grey ones.
"Shh…"
His first angered/confused/what the hell are you doing expression left his face, a confused look taking place.
She dared place a hand on his chest, a spark could be felt between Hermione's hand and Draco's linen white shirt. Suddenly she began to draw invisible circles on his chest with her fingers, getting slightly closer each time. Underneath Draco's stare Hermione had a determined face and a mix between flushed and sexy-if there was such a thing.
'This is it' she thought.
She managed to press herself against him. She almost let out a gasp as she felt Draco between her legs, her breasts against his chest pushed towards him. Amazingly, at that moment she seemed to feet so perfect next to him. She wasn't so short under him so their bodies managed to please each other's in the right places. Hermione brushed all this off quickly, though, and continued with her task.
She tiptoed so her face was in alignment with his, eyes symmetrical with his. She almost got lost in them, and forgot she had a task to complete. His eyes were filled with so much lust, and Hermione couldn't help but see her refletion in them. Were her eyes just as filled with lust as his? She blinked and bit her lip, punishing herself for thinking so hard.
To complete her task she continued to press her cheek to his, she felt him move his head back slightly. Hermione snaked her hands to the back of his head as she moved her head, her bare skin touching his, as she moved her lips to his right ear.
Thank god Parvati explained how to do the 'sexy-growl' or she would've forfeited the mission then and there.
Completing the task, Hermione growled in his ear, almost giggling at him as she released hold of him and stepped back.
He looked so… disheveled. Lust still in his eyes, and looking so confused.
They stood in place for what seemed like eternity. Which was actually only 10 seconds as Hermione felt a blush creep up to her face and she scrambled helplessly back to her room.
Rapping loudly at her own door she heard a muffled voice ask her if she did it.
"What do you think!" she retorted back to the voice.
The door was opened, Ginny, Lavender, and Parvati ushering Hermione back in.
"WELL!"
Hermione flinched.
"Well what?"
"HOW DID IT GO!"
"Merlin, don't go all caps-lock-y on me! It went…" She trailed off as Lavender took a hold of her wrist.
Grabbing her wrist and closely observing the cool bracelet, they noticed the once grey bracelet took the color of blue, concluding that Hermione did indeed complete the task given.
Parvati gasped, "Wow! You really did do it!"
Hermione sighed.
At that moment she deeply thought whether she would be able to do the next nine tasks.
'By the ninth task, I'd probably have to get him in bed!'
A/N:
I edited the beginning of chapter one as of May 20th, 2005to fit along with the story more.
Cool. :D
That was hot. The next chapter will surely include Draco's thoughts on this whole matter. Aren't we looking forward to that! Muahaha.
Anyways, I'm such a review whore. So… you know what to do!
Also: I'll be needing some ideas for the next nine tasks, I've already got some ideas but some input from you all would be a real treat! An authoress' mind can only be so wide! Anyways, Hope you liked it!
