Chapter 2
As soon as Draco finished his breakfast he gathered up his things, kissed Pansy swiftly on the cheek and hurried out of the Great Hall. He knew he should go straight to the owlery and send his mother a letter explaining that he wanted to stay at Hogwarts for the entirety of break. Draco however was hoping that Hermione wanted to see him as much as he wanted to see her. He ran up the staircase as fast as he could to the fourth floor. He almost ran into a suit of armor as he turned a corner.
He saw Peeves bobbing up and down straight ahead, he knew if he was spotted it wouldn't end well. He slipped into what appeared to be an empty classroom. As he shut the door someone ran ans threw their arms around his neck. It only took him a moment to realize that it was Hermione. He wrapped his himself around her waist and breathed into the hair that was covering his face. As he took a deep breath he could smell her shampoo. It had a subtle hint of honey and he smiled. It was moments before they broke apart but when they did he saw her smooth round face beaming at him. A slight smile was stretching across her beautiful face. He couldn't help but blush and he looked away quickly but a smooth hand rose to his cheek to stop him.
"Honestly Draco, after all this time you still try to hide your face from me" She moved in and kissed him softly on the lips but pulled away suddenly and skipped over to a nearby desk and sat down.
He didn't want her to stop and instead of looking as cheerful as her, he grimaced. Hermione laughed quietly. Her laugh was always so enticing even if it was directed as his misfortune. He strutted over to a desk beside her and sat down to face her.
Draco took her hands in his but before he could speak Hermione said quietly. "I saw Professor McGonagall at the Slytherin table with the sign up sheet. Are you staying?" She drew a short breathe and continued before he could even answer. "I don't think I'll have much homework and Harry and Ron are going to the Burrow so I will have loads of time to spend with you. I mean, only if you want. I sure hope Pansy" she said her name with as much disgust as possible "Isn't staying. She really doesn't know how to keep to herself, that one" Draco knew if he didn't do something quickly she might never shut up about Pansy. He reached his arm up and put his hand at the back of her neck and pulled her towards him and kissed her without warning. The kiss lasted for what seemed liked hours. If Draco had it his way he would spend much of his time kissing Hermione. He could feel her hands caressing the sides of his face as she kissed him back with much enthusiasm.
Draco pulled away this time and starred at her before whispering "I love you Hermione Jean Granger" He watched as Hermione comprehended what he had just said to her.
Chapter 2 came sooner than I expected. I got overly excited about writing again. Reviews are always welcomed.
