Hermione was sitting in the snow. She had given up looking for Crookshanks several minutes ago. She would have to continue the search tomorrow. It was freezing outside, and it was beginning to get late. Suddenly she felt someone drape a cloak around her. She pulled it closer and looked up to see who it was. The first thing she saw was Crookshanks. She grabbed him and looked again to see Draco Malfoy holding out his hand. She took it and he pulled her to her feet. She slipped slightly into his arms. After she regained her balanced she looked at him again. She had never noticed how beautiful he looked in the moonlight. "I found him wandering around the lake." Draco said, his grey eyes glistening like moonstones. "Really? But Crookshanks hates water." She said petting him. Draco put out his hand and petted Crookshanks. The ginger cat purred happily. "Thank you… Draco." She said hesitantly. "No problem, Hermione." He said smiling. Suddenly Crookshanks clawed Draco shirt and pulled him closer to Hermione. Hermione watched as he closed the distance between their faces. The kiss was tender and sweet. He pulled away and looked at her face. Hermione was blushing. "Well, thank you for finding Crookshanks." Hermione said. Draco nodded and Hermione turned back to the school. She walked alone to her dormitory, thinking about Draco. She fell asleep experiencing their kiss over and over again.
The End
