The Scheme?
Draco woke with a light tapping at his door. He groaned, his head lightly throbbing but still hurting. Oh what the bloody hell now, he thought.
"Malfoy," said Hermione, softly.
Draco's eyes widened and he hopped out of bed. He quickly shoved on his silk house robe and opened the door. "Yes?"
Hermione smiled. "It's time to go the Great Hall if you want breakfast before classes. "
Hermione then walked into the common room, leaving Draco to dress. She couldn't help but worry over what had happened last night. What if she really did …but she mustn't ponder on that now. Besides Granger, she thought to herself, you have much more other things to worry about. What if Harry and Ron were to ever find out? She gulped. They'd go mental. Or perhaps think she had gone mental!
She shook away her thoughts as a freshly showered Draco entered the common room. He nodded politely at her.
"Hello, Granger. By chance do you have any more of that hangover potion left?"
Hermione laughed and nodded, having already had quite the dose herself this morning. She handed him a small flask of the potion. He grinned at her.
"Thanks, Granger. Your basically saving me a lot of detention time."
She laughed and started on her way to the Great Hall for breakfast, Draco following a bit behind her. As they entered the Great Hall, they took their separate ways. She smiled as she sat down next to a worried looking Ginny.
Hermione frowned.
"Ginny what's wrong?"
Ginny sighed and looked over to the other side of the table to see a small giggling group of girls surrounding Harry. Harry was blushing but smiling. Hermione sighed. Great, more fan girls!
"Oh don't fret Ginny! The boy is absolutely crazy about you!"
Ginny sighed and turned her attention to Hermione. She smiled.
"Thanks 'Mione! You're the best," she said, grinning.
Uh oh, thought Hermione.
"What are you up to, now?"
Ginny rolled her eyes. "Nothing! I was just wondering if maybe you could help me with something," Ginny said, wiggling her eyebrows.
Hermione giggled. She couldn't help it, Ginny looked too funny when she wiggled her brows. "What is it?"
Ginny bit her lip. "Hook me up with Malfoy."
Hermione's jaw dropped. "WHAT?"
Ginny gasped and shushed Hermione. "Quiet! It's only to drive Harry mad."
Hermione shook her head in disbelief.
"I dunno Ginny. This is taking it a bit far," Hermione said hesitantly.
Ginny pouted her lip before getting a new idea. "Tell ya what. How about you take me to your common room after classes and we'll talk to Malfoy about it. Pretty please?"
Hermione sighed. She didn't want to do it. Jealousy is a hard emotion to control and Harry jealous could make things even more difficult for the two. Not to mention, Hermione hated to think of it, but Hermione might end up jealous of her own best friend. And her only female best friend, at that!
Hesitantly Hermione nodded. She didn't want to ruin her friendship with Ginny and who knows? Malfoy may not even agree to it.
"Alright, Ginny. But you owe me BIG! Got it," said Hermione finally.
Ginny squealed and hugged Hermione. "Thanks 'Mione! Well, better get to class," said Ginny quickly as she sped off to class.
Hermione sighed and shook her head. Granger, Granger, Granger, she thought to herself, WHAT have you gotten yourself into? She stood and started off to her first class.
