The two decided to meet at Hogsmeade at noon. Hermione didn't want to tell Ron or Harry yet because she knew they would flip out. She was going to make up some excuse and then sneak away to spend the afternoon with Draco. Wow. She never thought she would think those words. Sneaking around her best friends to hang out with who use to be her worse enemy. What was she thinking? Honestly, she didn't know. Something told her not to go, but the bigger part of her was telling her too. What could possibly happen? Nothing. There were going to be people around her, so even if this was some sort of trick someone would have to notice.

After calming herself down, Hermione decided to get ready. She would have to leave soon to go meet Draco. She took a quick shower and then tried to do something with her hair, but failed. It was the same bushy mess as always. She let out a sigh and then dressed herself in a pair of jeans and a brown sweater. She applied some make up, but not to much. It was barely noticeable, but made a difference. Hermione made sure she had her wand, and then once she was ready, headed down to the common room.

Harry and Ron were sitting there, talking about who knows what when she walked down. The two picked up their heads when they heard someone coming down. Ron raised an eyebrow at Hermione's appearance. Why did she look like she was going out?

"Where are you doing?" he demanded.

Hermione rolled her eyes. "It's none of your business, Ronald. I am allowed to go out it I want to. Just because you weren't invited doesn't mean you have to be over protective. I'm a big girl. I can take care of myself." she said.

"Where are you going?" he asked again. "And with who?"

"If you must know, I am going to Hogsmeade with a few friends. Is that okay with you?"

Ron looked at Harry, giving him a confused look and then looked back at Hermione. He shrugged. "Yeah, sure." he said. "Have fun."

Hermione smiled and let out a sigh of relief when he didn't ask any further questions. "I will. See you two later!" she said and then walked out of the common room and down the halls until she reached the outside. She took in a deep breath. It wasn't to late to turn back. She could turn around and walk back up to her dorm. Maybe she should have told Harry and Ron the truth on who she was going with. What if this was a trick? What if something did happen? If they knew she was with Draco they would come after her if she didn't return. Hermione shook her head of the thoughts. Nothing was going to happen to her. Nothing at all. She was going to spend the afternoon with Draco and have a good time.

Hermione took in another deep breath and then began walking towards the entrance to Hogsmeade. When she got there, Draco was waiting for her. She smiled softly and walked over to him.

"Am I late?"

Draco looked up at her, giving her a smile. "No. I'm just early."

Hermione laughed and looked at him. She looked over his appearance. Dark clothes, just like always. He was wearing dark jeans and a black turtle neck. It looked good on him and she had to admit that he looked very attractive. Hermione caught herself staring and quickly looked in another direction. "So, where to first?"

"Are you hungry? I was thinking we could go get something to eat."

"That's fine with me." she said. She gave him another smile and then began walking into Hogsmeade with Draco at her side.
