**Okay everyone, my first story ever on fanfiction! Enjoy!**
Disclaimer: I don't not own Harry Potter
Hermione Jean Granger had changed over the summer. Her awkward phase seemed miles behind her. Her once bushy mane was now delicate, soft curls that gently fell down her back. Her petite body gained the curves that she had lacked in her younger years, and despite being 5'2 her legs went on for miles. Her skin was sun kissed with freckles spreading across her nose and cheeks, framing her amber eyes. Puberty had been more than kind. Along with her physical changes, Hermione adopted a more feminine preppy look that consisted of cute sweaters, dresses, and skirts vs. her usual plain jeans and a hoodie. She had assumed no one would really notice these changes, but for once in her life, Hermione Jean Granger was wrong.
As Hermione made her way through Kings Crossing, it was hard not to notice all the stares she was receiving from the male population. You see, Hermione Jean Granger had changed over the summer. Gone was her bushy mane, and in its place was beautiful caramel brown hair that fell in soft curls down her back, gone were the plain jeans and shirt and in place was a simple white dress, cinched at the waist to show off her newly found curves. The white dress complimented her now sun kissed skin, that brought along freckles that framed her amber colored eyes, which were framed by dark, long lashes. However, Hermione wasn't aware of all the attention. Instead she kept her brisk pace, making her way to the train. Once she finally boarded, she kept a careful eye out for her friends. She had been looking all but five minutes when suddenly,
"Lost, Granger?" a familiar voice drawled behind her, as she turned around she came face to face, or more accurately, face to chest, with none other than Draco Malfoy. Hermione couldn't help but stare. Long gone was the gangly Draco she had come to know. Standing before her was a boy, no, man, comparable to Adonis. Draco stood at least 6'2 and had a slim build, but it was obvious that he had muscle due to quidditch, aristocrat features gave him sharp cheek bones and a strong jaw with a straight noise. His eyes were a stormy blue that captivated her. Over all Draco was gorgeous.
"Like what you see?"
Snapping Hermione out of her trance, she looked up to to see Draco smirking down at her. Boy did he look cute when he smirked.
"No. I just found it odd that you didn't seem to use your usual five pounds of hair gel. That's all." "You don't have to lie, I can admit I like what I see." before she could even answer Draco gave a wink and sauntered away leaving a very baffled Hermione. It didn't take long after her encounter with Draco for her to find her friends, and for that she was thankful.
"Hello everyone" She chimed as she entered the compartment
"Blimey, Hermione, what took you so long?"
"Sorry, sorry. Everyone seemed to be roaming around today. Took me forever to shove past them." She huffed as she finally sat down. She didn't know why she didn't mention her encounter with Draco, perhaps it's because she might have enjoyed it & didn't want Harry and Ron to know just how much. However she would tell Ginny as soon as they were in the safety of their room. Only then would Hermione admit that she did indeed find Draco to be very, VERY, attractive and would allow Ginny to give her advice on how to handle this newly found attraction.
She tried to pay attention to Harry and Ron's vivid stories of quidditch along with keeping small talk with Ginny, but she kept imagining stormy blue eyes staring at her. That was an image she just couldn't seem to shake.
Once at Hogwarts everything was a blur. She hardly even remembers the dinner, but she does remember what happened after. She had decided to leave early for many reasons; one being watching Ron eat was disgustion & two being she was actually tired. Leaving the Great Hall, She wasn't really paying attention to her surroundings for the lack of sleep had allowed her to think that walking with her eyes closed was a good idea. Her eyes suddenly opened when she felt her self crashing into a muscular stranger before falling on top of him.
"I am so sorry! I wasn't paying attention to whe-"
"Granger, I know you like me, but jumping me isn't going to win my affections. However I can think of a few other things that might." with that Draco wiggled his eyebrows at Hermione rather comically.
"You're a pig."
"You may say that, but why are you still laying on top of me? Not that I'm complaining"
With that Hermione hoisted her self up and away from Draco before stating "I thought that you hated mudbloods? Why are you suddenly so interested in one?"
"Actually that was my father. I've found that there really is no reason to hate anyone due to their blood. Also I've always been somewhat attracted to you after 3rd year, I find myself attracted to aggressive girls," Hermione couldn't resist rolling her eyes, but Draco didn't seem to notice and continued on his little speech ", and since the war is over I feel like a rather great opportunity has arisen allowing me to show my attraction towards you.."
"Why should I believe you?"
"I guess I can't make you believe me, but I can
prove it."
"How so?"
"I'm going to take you on a date."
"What?"
"You heard me. I'm attracted to you," Draco made sure to wink before adding ", and you are very obviously attracted to me so why not act on it?"
"Um.."
"C'mon. Where's that Gyrffidor courage you all love to brag about so much?"
After a few second of silence, Hermione finally answered "Just one date?"
"Yes, just one. Unless of course you want more"
"Don't push it"
"Alright alright, one date.. for now"
"Are you going to tell me what we are going to do?" she yelled at his slowly retreating figure
"Surprise"
"What about when it is?"
"Surprise, and speaking of surprises," with out the blink of an eye, Malfoy turned around and surprised Hermione with a peck to her lips, a peck that ended to quick for her liking.
"I'll see you around, Granger" with that he turned and retreated down the hall with a smirk on his face and a very confused Hermione behind him.
Making her way to Gryffindor tower, she couldn't keep the smile off her face. Although the snog had been swift, she can still remember the feeling of his warm lips on her. Hermione can't help but wish for more snogging in the future. No matter how happy, she couldn't help but think about how inexperienced she was compared to the "Slytherin Sex God". He had that name for a reason, and he had quiet the reputation for being quiet passionate. All Hermione had done was snog two people! Two people would not be enough experience for a boy who had a nickname that contained the words "sex" and "god". She needed to talk to Ginny before she got to deep in her own head.
Racing now into the common room she barely had anytime to say a simple hi to anyone. If anyone thought it was stranger they made no signs of it. As soon as she got to the girls room she made a beeline to Ginny's bed.
"DracoMalfoyaskedmeoutandidontknowhattodoandhekiss edmeandithinkireallylikehimbuthwhatifidontkissgood andheneverwantstoseemeagain?Whatdoyouwearonadatewi thanadonislookingmaleginnyineedyourhelp"
"Good heavens, Hermione! I couldn't even hear a word you said! Calm yourself and please repeat, slowly"
With a sigh, Hermione plopped herself on Ginny's bed and retold her encounter with Draco Malfoy while Ginny's smile got wider and wider as the story was told.
"Go on the date with him!" Ginny all but screamed
"What, really?"
"Yes! Have you not noticed how he just oozes sex appeal? Don't get me wrong, I love Harry with all my heart, but Draco Malfoy knows how to make a girl swoon" at the mention of sex appeal and swoon, Lavender Browns head popped up and nodded vigorously in agreement before adding, "He might be the best looking boy in Hogwarts, Slytherin or not." Numerous hums of agreement could be heard in the girls room.
"Okay.. I'll do it!"
