((Authors note: I thought I would be nice and give you two chapters today,
seeing as I posted the last one at 1am my time (England) it would be 2
chapters in one day would it not?))
Draco sensed that Hermoine had sat down next to him; he couldn't quite believe that he had spilled his heart out to her, he felt slightly vulnerable. This was something he had never felt before. Draco felt closer to Hermoine now that he had finally got all this off his chest, but it was Hermoine's reply that had hit him the most. Even after all these years of tormenting her she had told him she would be there for him if he ever needed to talk.
Draco turned to look at Hermoine, her deep brown eyes were full of pureness and truth, strands of hair had fallen from where she had her hair up which framed her face. She looked beautiful in his eyes. Draco brushed a loose strand behind her ear and smiled, "Thank you Hermoine." His voice was quiet, he leaned into kiss her but stopped, he didn't want to place her in awkward position. Draco turned away from her and looked over to the shops. "Should we erm . . . carry on looking around town?" He avoided her eyes; he didn't want to see the look of the disgust that he knew she would be giving him.

Hermoine smiled, "Yeah alright, now remember if you want to buy anything tell me and I'll lend you the money as they only except muggle money. Unless you have some that is." She stood up and faced Draco; "I'm going to take you into a muggle music shop first so come on follow me."
As soon as they were in the shop Hermoine let Draco listen to a CD from one of the headphones on the walls, this finally gave her some time to think. Had she imagined it or was Draco going to kiss her, Hermoine sighed and pushed the thoughts to the back of her mind. She was going to be nice to Draco for maybe the first time in her life and whether he liked it or not he was going to have a good time.

By the end of the day Draco had brought a few things and had a brilliant day. Hermoine had taken him into a jewellery store after he had told her he wanted to get something for his mother. This however was not the case. Hermoine had helped him choose a necklace asking if it were for her what would she have. Draco brought it and placed the box in his pocket. He had special plans for this necklace.
Draco had come to realise that everything that his father had told him as a child was false, muggleborns where not inferior to purebloods. He had enjoyed Hermoine's company and although he hated to admit it he was falling for her. Everything she did was perfect; she looked perfect in his eyes too. He had caught himself staring at her quite a number of times, hopefully she hadn't caught him. It was a shame that Hermoine still thought of him as an enemy. He would have to prove to her that he wasn't. Draco walked Hermoine to her door and thanked her for a fantastic day before setting off home to planning what he would do on the train the next day.

Hermoine woke up early the next morning and got ready to catch the Hogwarts Express. She jumped in the shower and relaxed, she loved how the water made her feel. Her mum had always told her that she was a water baby as ever since a toddler Hermoine had loved having baths, rain and swimming. After what seemed like half an hour Hermoine reluctantly turned the shower off and stepped out. She dried herself and walked back into her bedroom to get changed. Hermoine looked at the clothes she put out the night before. Her favourite blue jeans, her tight white top and her pink zip up jumper. It may not have been trendy but Hermoine felt comfortable in them.
After finally getting ready Hermoine stepped outside her house. She looked over to her next-door neighbour's house, she had promised to knock for him before they left, so they could get a lift together. Hermoine rang the doorbell, and Draco answered the door with a scared look on his face, Hermoine couldn't help but laugh. "It's a doorbell Draco, it doesn't hurt you!" Draco's cheeks went slightly red and nodded.
"Yeah I knew that . . ." he began, but gave up and smiled, "Come in"
Hermoine shook her head, "I can't Draco we need to get going we are going to be late!" Draco nodded and started pulling his trunk out of the house towards her dad's car.

Draco watched Hermoine as she walked through the barrier and towards Harry and Ron. Draco walked through behind her and made his way up to the Head's Cabin. He placed a small box on the chair with a note saying "Hermoine" before closing the door to go see Crabbe and Goyle.
Half way through the train journey Draco left the compartment and walked down the train to find Hermoine. Opening the door he took a deep breath. "Granger, you're wanted in the Head's Cabin." He looked towards Ron and Harry who glared at him as Hermoine walked out and towards the Head's Cab
"Haven't got your two bodyguards with you today Malfoy?" hissed Ron. Ron hadn't changed he still had the same goofy red hair and the same annoying freckles that all the Weasley children where trademarked for.
"I do not have time for you today Weasley, why aren't they nice robes!" Draco snarled closing the door as Ron tried to tackle him. Draco started walking back up to the Head's Cabin to see what Hermoine thought of her gift.
***
Hermoine had entered the Head's Cabin expecting to see someone but finding only a small parcel on the seat, she opened the letter and began to read;
Dear Hermoine,
I wanted to give you this to say sorry for the way I have acted for the past 6 years and hope that you forgive me for the arrogant person I am. I also wanted to say thank you for yesterday. I hadn't planned on telling you all that I did but I'm glad I did because I had a brilliant time. I have found that everything I was taught is no longer true and I wanted to let you be the first to know that because of you I have learned that Purebloods are not superior to muggle born and I wanted to thank you for this. I hope you like your gift.
Draco x
Hermoine opened the box to reveal the necklace she had helped Draco pick the day before. She smiled and took it out of its box. The necklace was on a gold chain and had a small pendant attached to it with a heart shaped ruby in the middle. Hermoine had fallen in love with it when she first saw it but had not told Draco this.
"Do you like it?" Draco asked quietly. Hermoine jumped, she had not noticed him come in. Hermoine grinned and nodded. "Turn around and I'll help you put it on"
Hermoine turned around as Draco placed the necklace around her neck. She turned back to face Draco and smiled, "Thank you Draco." She said quietly. Draco wiped the tear from her eye then placed his soft lips on Hermoine's and kissed her gently. Hermoine was shocked.
Draco took a step back and shook his head, "I'm sorry Hermoine I shouldn't have done tha . . ." but before he had the chance to finish Hermoine had placed her lips on his. As his mouth opened their tongues entwined with each other. Hermoine's hands found their way to the back of his head as she pulled him closer to deepen the kiss. After a few moments their lips parted. Both took a step back and smiled.
Locking the cabin door Hermoine sat down next to Draco, who had his arm around her shoulder, and started talking about anything that came to mind.
((Tell me what you think, like it? hate it? Let me know Amie xXx))
