Hello guys, this is going to be my first chapter story... I want to make it at least ten chapters and probably more. This story starts off with Draco and Hermione about 3 months after their break up of their secret relationship. The song I got inspired by is Here We Go Again by Demi Lovato. So here's chapter one! Enjoy :) Im also looking for a beta reader ..
Chapter One: I Tell "Everyone"
Hermione Granger was never the girl who people thought she was. She was bossy, condescending and a know-it-all. Her nose would scrunch up when someone said something "stupid" or they didn't do something right. Her eyes would automatically roll at the sight of the wrong wrist flick, or when Ronald asked her a question she had answered many times before- he just hadn't cared to listen. Of course. Everyone just saw her as a teacher's pet, always bringing it upon herself to be the top of the class, the brightest which of their age.
But Hermione was kind, understanding, protective and helpful. She was prideful, like most other Gryffindors, in her house and colors. She would always be there for her fellow lions. Her face lit up when she saw one of them in the grand halls of Hogwarts. But she wasn't only friendly to them, she was friendly to everyone. In her first year she even tried being kind to the Slytherins (failing miserably of course) just because she knew that everyone had a little bit of kindness in them, and she secretly wanted to break through to the snakes – mostly because everyone assured her there was no getting through, and she always loved to beat the odds. But still, she had tried. And always trying – at least once – was Hermione's specialty. She would never back down. Call it her Gryffindor courage, or call it whatever you wanted, but that is who she is and that is who she will always be. And that was the main reason her and Draco ever happened… She didn't back down, and Draco always loved to challenge people.
Draco leaned up against the brick wall adjacent to the door way to his favorite class of the day – double potions with the Gryffindors. He crossed his arms and look down the hall, furrowing his brow when he saw herwalking towards him, laughing loudly at something Ron or Harry had said. Jealousy bubbled up inside of him, making his forehead hot, his hands ball up into fists – flexing – causing his muscles to contract angrily. He narrowed his eyes at Ron and Harry as they got closer. Hermione looked up, into Draco's piercing grey eyes, and her smile dropped. She knew that look. She feared that look. She used to prevent that look. That look of pure hatred, pure resentment. A look reserved specifically for Ron and Harry. She bit her lip as she furrowed her brow "Oh shoot! I forgot my potions textbook in the tower!" she said, stopping in her tracks. Ron and Harry turned around to look at her – then to one another "We'll come with you to get it…" they said apprehensively. All three knew very well what professor Snape would be doing to them once they returned late to class and it wasn't pretty. "Oh, no I'm fine really" she said, waving them off. They both shrugged in unison "Okay" they said easily convinced. Hermione breathed a sigh of relief. Draco looked down, still leaning up against the wall. "Let's go" he said, pushing off the wall, grabbing Hermione's arm as he swiftly walked towards a quiet place. Hermione felt electric shock pass through her as he touched her – finally she thought.
Draco's feet led him to a very familiar nook, located in the dungeons. A nook that they – Hermione and Draco - used to meet up in late at night, when they weren't supposed to be out of bed, but they just couldn't stay away from each-other. Hermione and Draco would both be lying if they said that being in the nook didn't flood back memories, good and bad, for that matter. It was just big enough to lean against each wall and be able to put an arm out in front of each of them, without touching. They each leaned up against the wall adjacent to one another, Draco was looking down. Hermione folded her hands together nervously, not sure what she should say. Her mouth was slightly parted, her eyes peering into the top of Draco's pale blonde head of hair. "Draco –"she started. He looked up into her eyes, her brown chocolate eyes and she caught her breath. She couldn't do this. She couldn't stand seeing him, and not being able to touch him. Draco felt the same way. "You're mine, Hermione. I don't care if we aren't together. You're mine and you better not forget it" the words were laced with anger and jealousy as they spewed out of his mouth as he sneered. Hermione automatically nodded her head and looked down "You know I'm yours, Draco, you don't need to be so jealous. Okay?" she asked, hopeful that his anger would calm. She knew he couldn't help it. She knew he didn't want to be jealous – it was one of the main reasons they broke up. Draco looked up, and before she knew it his lips were on hers, she moaned softly into the kiss and laced her hands into his silky hair. He wrapped his arms around her waist and pulled her up, causing her to wrap her legs around his waist, moaning deeper as he groaned. Their tongues battled for dominance in each-others mouths, Draco eventually winning. "Baby, please" Draco managed to say "Let's go to my room". Before she knew it, Hermione was in Draco's familiar bed, the silky green sheets felt like home to her. The dorm was empty but filled with Hermione's screams as Draco sent her over the edge, and soon followed after.
They quickly got dressed and fixed each-others hair, racing to Potions. Hermione was out of breath as they reached the door, her cheeks red. Draco's redder. They entered together, and got an even deeper shade of red as everyone turned around to see who had entered. Each student's eyes grew wide as they saw the two "enemies" standing there together, clearly something had just happened. What made it even worse, it that the only available seats left were right beside one another at an empty desk. They took their seats and looked at the front of the room, waiting for the lesson to continue. Knowing very well that it wouldn't. "Mr. Malfoy and Miss. Granger, why are you so late" Snape asked assertively. Draco opened his mouth to speak, but nothing came out. He was so flustered he couldn't think of an excuse. "I forgot my potions text book, so I had to go to the Tower to go get it" Hermione stated, not knowing what Draco would come up with. "I-I uhm" he stuttered. The class collectively raised their eyebrows. Draco Malfoy didn't stutter… "Well Mr. Malfoy?" Snape asked impatiently. "I was walking Hermione to the tower" he managed to say quickly as he closed his eyes, wincing almost. Snape turned back to the lesson, surprisingly. Hermione tried to hold back a giggle, but it escaped her. Draco smiled at her, the smile he only reserved for Hermione's eyes. They both knew they would have a lot of explaining to do after this class, and they really weren't looking forward to it.
