Okay so i promised another chapter up soon so here it is. I feel bad for not posting as much as i thought i would. This chapter is all over the place but it helps the story progress. I hope you like it.
"Well, Gra-Hermionie, we better get off to class. You leave first."
"What?" I asked slightly dazed.
He chuckled quietly and pulled me back to him "If we walk in together people will go crazy so you go and I will follow shortly after you." He bent his head down and gave me a quick kiss. He pulled back and shoved me towards my things. "Go on or you will be late." He looked down at a pretend watch tapping his foot. I giggled and started to walk away.
"You." He said just loud enough for me to catch as I was walking away faster now.
I turned slowly "Me what?" I asked totally confused.
"I like you." He replied. He picked up his bag gave me a soft smile and a little shoeing motion with his hands and tapped his pretend watch.
"Oh." I turned quickly and practically ran all the way to Charms. I sat down with a half of minute to spare. Professor Flitwick climbed up onto his pile of books and was about to address the class when Draco walked in.
"Ugh how wonderful. Another agonizing period with him." Ron whispered to Harry and I.
"Ah how nice of you to join us. If you would hurry and take you seat we may begin today's lesson." As soon as Draco sat down I heard Ron huff.
"What?" I asked quietly as possible.
"He just irks me that's all." He replied leaning in to close.
"Nothing new." Harry responded chuckling quietly. We all turned back to the front of the class waiting for the Professor to remember what he wanted to say.
As we waited I felt eyes on the back of my head. I did not turn around because I was afraid of the reaction I might give. Ron decided right then that he had to sit closer to me. As quietly as possible he scooted his chair so mine was almost touching his. A growl came from right behind us. Exactly where Draco and Zabini sat.
Harry turned around and glared "Problem?"
Zabini laughed to loud catching everybody's attention. I felt very uncomfortable. "Yeah your friends are making Draco sick as you can hear." He then turned to Ron and I. "So if you could move away from each other you two will most likely stay vomit free. Not that I care but I don't want my friend uncomfortable."
I didn't dare look at Draco, I was afraid of what way he might look at me. Just then Flitwick came to my rescue.
"Oh I remember now. Class attention please!" He called out. The class turned back to the short man expecting him to drone on the rest of the period. "So today I thought it would be a nice break if you all worked on easy things. Such as your levitating. Please keep all magic done today in class where a first year could do it thank you." He then turned and pointed to a couple of boxes. "In there are different objects you can levitate and such. Off you go. Oh and I will be watching to see who is and isn't working." He then climbed off his pile of books and went around to sit in his desk chair.
Everyone moved to go get something from the box. "I'll get stuff don't worry." Ron said getting up.
"I want to go to. I want to pick something I think I can levitate." Harry replied following.
I saw Zabini pass me to go get something from the box but I never heard or saw Draco move to the box.
"What the hell?" Draco said from behind me, but only loud enough for me to hear.
I turned to look at him "He got closer to me I didn't ask him." I got angry then "Besides its not like you have asked me to be your girlfriend or anything. You kissed me a couple times that's all. That doesn't make me yours Draco."
His eyes got harder "You like him don't you." He didn't make it sound like a question more of an accusation.
"What? Of course I don't like him like that Draco. Seriously?" His eyes softened a bit. "Stop being a baby and tell me what you want to happen between us. I can't wait forever." I replied. I was desperate for him to just ask me out. I wanted to be with the Draco I had in the library. Not one who didn't trust me.
Before he could reply Harry and Ron came and sat back down. "He bothering you Hermione?" Harry asked eyeing Draco.
"No I was asking him a question. It was all me not him." I said turning around,
"You could have waited for us 'Mione I bet he lied to you anyway." Ron replied handing a big object for me to levitate.
"Thanks." I replied. I easily levitated it up and back down. I hadn't noticed that Zabini had went back to his and Draco's table. I got up to put back my object but Ron stopped me.
"I can do that for you." He smiled holding his hand out. Instead of giving him it I motioned for him to come closer.
I waited until he was s close I could whisper in his ear "That's nice of you Ron but I think you would rather enjoy me doing it." He pulled back and gave me a questioning look. I just smiled and went to the front of the room to put the object back in its box.
I saw Neville was having a hard time keeping his object steady as he levitated it. Perfect! I walked over to him and spoke loudly so most people could hear me.
"Oh Neville let me help you. I have a good trick at keeping your hand steady." I smiled. He blushed and nodded his consent. As I was about to levitate his object and show him a way to help my hand 'slipped' and the next thing I knew Blaise Zabini was the one being levitated high into the air.
"Hey….hey….hey…what is happening? HELP!!!!!!" Zabini cried from near the ceiling. The Gryffindor's were laughing as the Slytherins stood shocked.
"Oh my!" I said putting a shocked expression on my face.
"Wow Miss Granger I am impressed!" Professor Flitwick said from his desk " Fifty points to Gryffindor." He smiled "OH but please do be a bit more careful Miss Granger and please put Mister Zabini down."
I slowly put him back in his chair, never once looking his way. "I am so sorry sir it was an accident." I said looking at the small teacher.
"Quite all right Miss Granger. Don't fret no harm done." He smiled and went back to what he was previously looking at.
I walked back to my desk keeping my smile hidden. Harry, Ron, and the other Gryffindor's couldn't stop laughing. "Please quiet down" The professor said from his seat. People silently laughed.
"Oh…..my…..you were right 'Mione." Ron said quietly laughing.
"Granger you are dead." Zabini said from behind me. I turned to look him dead in the eye.
"Really? The way I see it is if that was an accident what could I really do to you if I was trying even the least bit hard?" I replied. This cruelness to me stopped now. "Threaten me again Blaise I dare you." I squinted my eyes daring him to say a word. The bell rang and he huffed and stormed out the room.
"You guys go ahead." I said to Ron and Harry. They both nodded not caring as to why I was staying. I waited until I was the last in the room before leaving. As expected Draco was leaning against the wall near the door.
"He is a true friend." He stated coldly.
"I see." I replied turning away. We were the only ones in the corridor but I felt like I was surrounded.
"Don't okay just don't. I tell you I like you and you pull that stunt. What do you want me to do? Tell me and I'll do it okay? I need to know because I am so damned confused!" Draco burst.
"I want you to tell me whether or not we are a fling. I want you to figure out a way to have him leave me alone. I know I can take care of myself but I don't want to do it alone anymore!" I replied turning to face him tears welling up in my eyes.
"Hermione don't cry" He stepped closer and pulled me to him. "I'm sorry" He mumbled into my hair. "God I don't know what to do you drive me insane."
I gave a small chuckle and pulled back feeling totally embarrassed.
"I want you to be my girlfriend. But I want you to be safe and I don't know if being my girlfriend is safe." He said looking into my eyes. I nodded.
"Okay." I whispered knowing he could hear me.
"Your gonna be late." He said looking around.
"I'm just gonna skip my last two classes." His mouth dropped open in shock. I giggled. "I'll see you in detention." With that I turned away and walked to my dorm not once looking back.
Well thats it. I hope you liked it. Please review.
