Chap 7: Maybe… Just Maybe.
Hermione had stopped talking on the phone. It turned out to be some Chinese lady that had the wrong number. A few minutes had gone by and they still didn't say anything to each other or at least even try to explain to each other what just happened. Hermione picked up her magazine again and began to read it. As much as she tried to concentrate on " 20 ways to please a guy" she just couldn't and it was frustrating her, she kept lingering back to the almost kiss. That Kiss was so close and looking into those beautiful orbs of gray and blue.
Those eyes, those captivating eyes that held her his prisoner for that mere moment.
She suddenly froze at that thought. What was I thinking; she almost gagged of the thought now that she really thought about it thoroughly. She eventually thought out loud because Draco jumped in his seat when she said it.
"What!" Draco asked.
Hermione couldn't think of anything to say, he asked so fast as if he was expecting her to say something. Hermione said the first thing that popped in her head.
" Nothing, I said I suddenly feel like drinking" Hermione cursed herself at what she just said.
"That's nice… I didn't know you drank, I mean you always looked like you were a drunk but now that you said that I guess its true", he said it just like it was nothing.
"I am Not a Drunk!" she said laughing. " And personally I should be thinking that about you"
"Me!"
"Yes, you… I mean for example", Hermione thought this was the perfect time to question him about earlier.
"Well" he said crossing his arms.
" Well… What was that all about a while ago?" she said crossing her arms too.
"What?" Draco knew she meant the almost kiss, seeing that he made it so obvious and if word got out his world would be turned upside down.
" Oh don't give me that rubbish, cause you know just as well as I do that you wanted to kiss me"
"So what if I did" Draco couldn't believe what he just said.
"You actually wanted to" Hermione couldn't believe her ears either.
" Wanted to what?" he quickly thought, his reputation is not going down like this. He figured he would just deny everything.
" To kiss me… retard " Hermione patience was running out.
"No"
" Then why did you say that?"
"Say what"
"Ahhhh never mind" Hermione grew tired of his childish games and just took out her CD player and looked out the window. It was getting dark now.
Draco felt satisfied that she had given up, and he was safe. He found himself very nervous a while ago cause she had actually had the nerve to bring that up. In fact he got so nervous that he got up and got his suite case from above his seat and took out a bottle of firewhiskey.
Hermione was eyeing his every move from the reflection on the window. Draco sat down and noticed that she was looking at him and took a drink of his drink. He smiled and thought it was a good time to bug her again. He liked it when she got all fired up like that, he considered it a turn on, even though he would never admit it.
" I know you find me irresistible but you can make it less obvious or at least tell me you like me" he said taking another drink. Draco was beginning to get drunk.
Hermione heard him over the music and turned around to face him.
" I don't Like you, you foul little cockroach" she couldn't believe he said that after he tried to kiss her. Not to mention she could tell he was getting drunk.
" There Granger, you can tell me…no need to hide it, maybe if you would like we can", he got up and sat next to her. " Play a little game".
Hermione could smell the alcohol in his breath.
"Malfoy your drunk" she said it waving her hand in front of her face and coughing.
" No I'm not," he said shaking his head.
" Yes, you are" she said trying to reach for the bottle on his lap, " and put that away before you get us in trouble", but he grabbed it in time for her not to take it. Draco grabbed the bottle so fast that hermione ended up touching his coconuts.
She realized what she had done and ejected her hand but Draco grabbed it and pulled her in for a kiss.
Hermione struggled to get away but he was just so strong that she couldn't.
"Mrao" Hermione mumbled
Draco finally let her go.
"Wow!" he said before passing out.
Hermione couldn't believe he had kissed her. Even though Hermione kinda deep inside didn't want him to stop. The taste of alcohol was getting to her and that broke her thoughts. What was happening to her, she actually wanted Malfoy. She saw that Draco was knocked out and had fallen on her and his head was on her lap. Hermione rolled her eyes at the sight. She lifted up Draco head and quickly got up and then dropped him. Grabbed her CD Player and bag and then made her way out of the compartment.
She left cause she could tell that they were almost there so she went to go get dressed into her dress robe. She was coming out of the bathroom when she saw Ginny heading toward her.
" Hey, Gin"
" Hi" she didn't seem too happy.
" What's wrong?"
" Oh its just Ron… he keeps on talking about Pansy, Pansy this and Pansy That, he wont shut the fuck up."
" Oh" Hermione grew angry at the name.
" Well you could always jinx him, that always works"
"Thanks but he'll just tell mum, and well you know"
" Mommas Boy?" Hermione Asked
" Yep"
A couple minutes passed and Ginny remembered that Hermione was Head Girl.
" So who's the new head boy?"
"You'll never guess who"
"Spill!"
" Malfoy" she smiled on the in inside at his name, but she didn't know why.
" No!"
" Yes"
" And"
" What do you mean and… its Malfoy, the sniveling little cockroach that bugs the hell outta me"
" You don't look so frustrated as you seem" Ginny could tell that her friend wasn't telling her something.
Hermione noticed a smile on Ginny's face that usually meant that she was planning something and that was not good. She cut Ginny off before she could ask any more questions and made her way to her compartment.
Draco was still sleeping; he started to drool a little. Hermione walked in and sat where Draco sat before, across from her. She looked over at Draco and couldn't help but draw a smile. She put two fingers to her lips and remembered the kiss, rough but sweet.
Maybe there is a good side to him… just maybe.
She put her headphone on again.
