Chapter 7
"Sweet Seduction"
As Hermione was walking down the stairs she swore she heard music. When she opened the door, she realized she had heard music, not only was there music but there were candle on the table and the lights in the room had been dimmed.
"Good evening Hermione," Draco said.
Hermione gaped at him, he looked amazing. He was wearing a black button down shirt, with the top couple buttons undone, and black slacks. His hair wasn't slicked back like it normally was, it was somewhat looser and it looked gorgeous.
"I..uhh...am...uhh... gonna go change." hermione stammered and ran up the stairs.
"Oh my god, oh my god, oh my god..." was Hermione kept saying as she threw open her closet door and started rummaging through her clothes. Finally she found what she was looking for, a simple black satin dress. She quickly stripped off her robe, and put the dress on. It was a little tighter than she remembered, especially in the boob region. Hermione looked at herself in the mirror and smiled, she looked damn good. She put on her black stilettos and ran down the stairs and stopped at the door. Slowly pushing the door open, she stepped into the common room.
Now it was Draco's turn to gape, he'd never seen Hermione show so much leg, and her legs were amazing.
"You look amazing," Draco told her, "I thought we could share some dessert tonight, you know get to know each other a little better." Draco smiled at her and motioned toward a chair on one side of the table, as he sat down in the one opposite it.
Hermione sat down in the chair not knowing what to expect. She knew this had everything to do with the note she had given him, but she had never expected something like this. She looked up and saw him smiling at her. She smiled back. The silence was starting to get to Hermione, so she said, "You know what doesn't make sense to me Draco? The fact that you could have just about any girl in this school, well anyone that isn't in Gryffindor, but you expect me to believe you fell for me- the Gryffindor bookworm, the "filthy mudblood," the girl that no guy, well besides Viktor Krum, has looked at until this year."
"Yes, I do expect you to believe that, because that is the truth. But about no guy looking at you until this year, that is no where close to true. Don't expect that just because Potter and Weasley were blind to your beauty doesn't mean that everyone else was."
Hermione simply stared at him, what could she say to that? 'Why does he have to be so gorgeous?' she thought to herself. Hermione reached out and grabbed Draco's hand. "You know," she said, "I think I'm starting to believe you." Then she smiled at him. "So, what's for dessert?"
"Whatever you like. These are the plates we used at the Yule Ball, just tell the plate what you want and it will appear." Draco told her, not letting go of her hand.
Hermione looked down at her plate and said, "One Chocolate Raspberry Fool please," and it appeared. This dessert was something Hermione's mom loved to make, and she was surprised they knew what she had been talking about.
Hermione went to take a bite and only then realized that Draco was still holding her hand. She looked up at him questioningly, but again he simply smiled at her, kissed her hand, and let it go.
This sinner was turning out to be the dinner of amazed stares, because again Hermione could simply stare at Draco. She had no come back, no words were coming to her mind, she was simply amazed. And in her amazement she realized she wanted Draco then and there. She didn't know what came over her, maybe it was the amazing way he was trying to woo her, or maybe it was the fact that he had always been forbidden to her. Hermione had no idea, but she did know she wanted him. 'Control yourself girl!' Hermione told herself, 'Don't get carried away!' So she tore her eyes from Draco and ate her dessert.When she was finished with her dessert, she looked up and saw Draco was done too.
"Well love," Draco said standing up, "I have a ton of homework to do, so I better get started. How about we continue this tomorrow."
"But-" Hermione started getting up too, wanting to get up and ravish Draco.
"Tomorrow." Draco said simply. He stepped towards Hermione and kissed her soundly on the mouth, then stepped back and said, "Good night."
