Indigo: Okay, this is my first story. Disclaimer goes to... *drum roll* Ronald.

Ron: Indigo Carlisle does not own the Harry Potter franchise, nor will she ever. She only owns this storyline.

Indigo: Thank you, Ronald. And now, for the Prologue.


Prologue

"Draco, I-" I began. He put his finger to my lips. "Hush, this will only take a second. He put his finger down. He started to lean in, and I was just frozen there. This was all happening so fast, I didn't know what to do. There I was, about to kiss Draco Malfoy. Me, Hermione Granger. Why was this happening?

Calm down, Hermione, it'll be fine. He's going to kiss you and you're going to like it. You know you love him, no matter how much you deny it. And he loves you.

His face was getting closer and closer, and I was getting sweatier and sweatier. I couldn't breathe. Why did he love me anyway? He'd been calling me Mudblood all my life at Hogwarts, and didn't give a damn about me. But here he was, almost kissing me. I didn't understand.

And then I felt his cool lips on mine. I hesitated, but then I kissed back. It was better than I imagined it would be. I had imagined it would be vile. Disgusting. But it was anything but that. It was wonderful.

"Hermione?" A husky voice called out, sounding shocked and hurt. I broke away from Draco and saw Ron standing there. How did he get in the Room of Requirement? "Ron, I-" I started to say, but what the hell was I going to say? That Draco and I were kissing by accident? The red haired boy stormed off and I followed after him.

"Why the bloody hell were you snogging Malfoy?" Ron snapped angrily. I knew it was the anger talking, but I was just as angry with him. "Because he's not as bad as he seems. He's... different now." I explained, trying to calm him.

"Different? Different? How on the entire bloody earth can he be different? He's a weasel!" Ron shouted. "He is not!" I screamed. And suddenly Ron was kissing me. I didn't kiss back at all. "What?!" I heard Draco scream. I broke from Ron and saw Draco angrily glaring at us. "Hermione, why?!" He screamed, tears streaming down his cheeks. I had never seen him cry before. "Draco, he kissed me, and I didn't even kiss back!" I explained, pleading for him to understand.

"Save it, Hermione." And with that, Draco stormed off. I turned to Ron and slapped him in the face. I ran off crying. This was the worst night of my life.


Indigo: I know, it was kind of a boring prologue, but hey, ya like? R&R! ;)
