AN: Sorry it's been forever since I've updated, but here is a new chapter, so enjoy:)
Hermione P.O.V.
I smiled happily as Draco told me some of his childhood stories. My favorite was when he first started experiencing magic, he accidently changed one of his dad's shampoos and his dad's hair was purple for a whole day. Or one time, when he accidently set the house on fire.
I laughed so hard, my sides hurt. Draco and I had been talking a lot since our encounter on the tower. He hasn't made a move on me, but sometimes he would pull me against him and kiss my forehead. He has shown me a side of him no one had ever seen before, it makes me feel special, knowing I'm the only one who has seen this side of him.
He grinned. "When I graduate here, I'm going to be an apprentice of an Auror at the Ministry."
I smiled. "Really, that's great. I haven't told Ron and Harry yet, but I finally got Professor Snape to take me on as an apprentice, and I hope that someday, I might become the potion's professor here."
His eyes widened. "I always thought that you would go to school to become a healer."
I tilted my head a little as I thought. "I considered going of becoming a healer, but I love this school, and I love Potions."
He nodded. "You'll be an awesome Potions Professor."
My heart fluttered. "Thanks."
He got off the floor and sat next to me on the coach. My heart seemed to stop as he trailed his fingers down my cheeks and gently held my head between his hands. His steel grey eyes held me captive, as they seemed to melt.
I shivered as he spoke.
"Hermione… Can I kiss you?"
I looked in his eyes, shocked. Did he want to really kiss him? Do I want him to kiss me? Slowly, I nodded my head. His eyes never left mine as he leaned towards my face. My heart beated so fast, that I thought he could hear it, and my stomach knotted in anticipation.
I sighed and closed my eyes, as I felt his gently touch mine in a teasing caress. I kissed him back. It was a slow kiss that took my breath away. When it ended, he pulled me against him and held me.
We fell asleep in each other's arms on the coach in front of the fire place.
Draco P.O.V
Crack. Crack. Thump.
I opened my eyes, alert, as I looked around my surroundings. I sighed in relief, when I realized that the noise was just the burnt wood in the fireplace. Tightening my hold around Hermione's waist, I looked down at her face nestled on my arm. We must have fallen asleep.
I thought about taking her into her room and going to my mine, but I didn't want to leave her presence. I didn't know how, but during my time with her, I have started to enjoy being around her. Slowly and gently, as to not wake her, I lifted her in my arms and went to my bedroom door. Balancing her in my arms, I twisted her in my arms and opened the door. When I made it through the doorway, I closed the door with the back of my heel.
I was glad that I was in a rush yesterday morning, so my sheets were still at the edge of my bed. I laid her down gently on my Slytherin green sheets, her luscious hair sliding against my arm raising goose bumps. I stood up and looked in awe at Hermione in my bed. I never thought that I would see her here on my bed. But her she was.
She looked so breathtaking …
I picked up my wand on my nightstand and changed my clothes to a pair of black boxers and a black shirt. I then changed Hermione's clothes into a pair of black night pants and a red shirt. I slipped in on other side of her and pulled the sheets over us. Her back was to me, so I pulled her flush against my chest.
I had to always keep reminding myself that I was doing all of this for a dare, but somehow without me knowing, I started caring about her, and I don't think I can bring myself to hurt her like that. And don't know how I'm going to take care of the dare, but I knew I wasn't going to go through with it.
Now how was I going to explain this to Blaise and Pansy?
