07 - He Flew


To Draco Malfoy, flying was everything. When his feet left the ground and the sky rushed down to meet him... Well, there was nothing like it.

Until Granger kissed him.

It had been brief and done under duress (the mistletoe wouldn't let them part until it happened), but the moment she grabbed the collar of his robes, pressed her lips to his, and shared a quick breath with him, he could've sworn the world dropped away.

When he opened his eyes, Granger was still there. They stared at each other, and he thought, just maybe, she'd left the ground too.
