Hey. Happy new year everyone. I decided to start it off with writing another chapter. Enjoy! Please R+R!
J.Gabrielle – it's a bit of a weird pairing I know but I wanted to try it out.

Hermione skipped up to Lily, beaming. The redhead turned to her best friend and asked,
"What has happened? You're all…bubbly!"
Hermione laughed and exclaimed,
"Well, I'm going to Hogsmeade with Sirius and um…"
Lily looked at her as she broke off and turned red. The brunette stammered,
"Well, um, he kind of, um, he, well, hekissedme."
Lily took a moment to register, but when she did smiles covered her face. She started to ask Hermione all sorts of questions, but was stopped by Hermione saying,
"Lils! It was just a kiss…"
Lily shook her head and said,
"No, no, no, honey. Asking you to Hogsmeade and then kissing you. That means that you're going out."
Hermione had thought that but hadn't been sure, not wanting to be seeing more into it that it actually was, but at this excitement flooded into her and she pulled Lily to her dormitory saying,
"You have to find me something to wear! What can I wear??"
Lily merely laughed. Meanwhile Sirius was with James, Remus and Pettigrew.
"Well she's pretty and smart and fun…so I asked her to Hogsmeade…and then I kissed her."
Up until that point James had been only listening with half an ear, assuming that it was one of Sirius' flirtations, but at this he sat up. He exclaimed,
"You did what?"
Remus had a similar reaction,
"Do you seriously like her?"
Only Pettigrew did not give an appearance of caring. Sirius noticed, but paid no attention as Pettigrew was only a tag-along. He shrugged and said,
"She's unlike any of the other girls…apart from Lily, but Lily's my friend, you know."
Remus and James laughed.
"So what did Hermione say?"
At this question Sirius paused.
"Well, she wasn't mad…or anything…actually she seemed really happy."
By the time dinner came around the news of Hermione and Sirius had spread like wildfire. Zabini came up to Lucius and said,
"Did you hear? That mudblood Granger is going out with that blood traitor Black. Can you believe it? They make the perfect couple."
Lucius merely gave a forced smile. He didn't understand why the news hurt him so much. When next he saw Hermione he went up to her and said maliciously,
"So you and Black? What a joke. A mudblood and a mudblood lover."
Hermione turned on him, furious.
"Why do you care, Malfoy? It doesn't affect you!"
"I don't. What gave you that idea?"
"The fact that you approached me just to snipe at me about that. Sirius and I like each other. Get over it."
"I never had a problem with it in the first place. No, my problem is you, mudblood. You're not a witch and no matter how much magic you can do you never will be."
Hermione walked away, shaking with anger. Lucius just stared after her, wondering why he was so bothered. He ran after her.
"Granger!"
She turned and yelled,
"What? What do you want?"
Lucius looked up and down the corridor and on seeing no one crashed his lips onto hers. For a moment Hermione fought but then she melted into his kiss. It was passionate and it left them both breathless. When it ended he walked away, leaving her staring after him, bewildered, angry, but wanting to kiss him again more than anything else.
