Braggadocio

The sun was shining, the birds were singing and the boys were stuffing their already full mouths with more smashed potatoes.

Hermione who was currently reading the dictionary was too engaged in the book to notice. Which probably was a good thing since she would've bitten their heads of for such despicable manners like she did every day.

But today, a single word was mesmerizing her.

She had read the dictionary a couple of times, each time thoroughly but this word she had never seen before, or simply never noticed.

"Brag-ga-do-ci-o n1. Empty boasting and swaggering self-aggrandizement
2. Somebody who makes overblown claims or empty boasts."

She glanced at the Slytherin table at a certain blonde and looked back at the word grinning.

Yet another long word to describe that worthless git, yet another word she could use against him.

Half an hour later she spotted him leaving the Great Hall.

Taking the opportunity she leaped out of her seat threw an excuse at the boys who really didn't seem to notice anything except the fact that the bowl of smashed potatoes was getting dangerously empty.

Hermione ran out of the Great hall and ran straight into somebody as she turned the corner.

"Watch it!" Malfoy yelled though he barely budged from the impact whereas Hermione had been thrown to the floor, "Oh, it's you,"

He glanced down the hallway before helping her up.

"Why where you in such a rush? Miss me much?" He asked smirking and stepped closer to her.

"I found another word for you," she replied,

"Oh?" Malfoy said stepping closer, eyes focusing on her lips.

"this one is going to take you a long time to figure out," she said grinning smugly.

"Let's hear then,"

"Braggadocio,"

Malfoy kissed her lighly, "Sounds like a curse,"

"Yet it is so charming," she grinned as she kissed him properly.
