Dracos pov

Gorgeous. That's one of the million words I could use to describe Hermione when she walked into potions this morning. She looked amazing. But that just pissed me off even more. How dare she choose that ponce over me! I'm a Malfoy for Merlins sake! How can she admit to wanting to be with me and then ignore me jus because her stupid friends don't like me. Not that I care if they like me or not. I hate them. I thought I hated them before but now I despise them. Surely if they were her real friends they would let her be with whoever she wants, they should be happy that she's happy.

My internal rant is cut short when Snape calls my name. "Mr Malfoy if you are finished staring off into the distance like a love struck teenager you can move to sit beside your assigned partner, Miss Granger"

Shit. Well now I'm definitely screwed. Not only do I have to sit by someone I like that is refusing to speak to me I also missed what we have to do. Snape is going to crucio me! Hesitantly I grab my things together and walk over to sit next to Hermione. Flinching I watch as the scoots as far to the other side of the table as she can. I can't let her get to me. I have to keep pretending that I'm ok and that I'm over her. Which I am. Sort of. Ok a little bit. Oh who am I kidding I'm not over her at all.

Noticing her looking at me from the corner of my eye I send a wink to a pair of girls drooling over me on the other side of the class room not that I can blame them, I mean I am basically a sex god. Turning back to Hermione I suck up the courage to speak to her. "Let's just get this over with shall we?" I drawl in the most bored tone I can muster up. I keep my face as void as I can to show that I'm not bothered by her transformation or that she doesn't want to speak to me. She nods her head hesitantly and we begin our potion in silence.

Later that day I decide to make Hermione jealous and I know just how to do it. I have to flirt with another Gryffindor. Which usually would make me want to puke but I know it's the best way to get back at her. Choosing which one to use is hard though, it has to be someone she's close too but not too close to because if we do get together in the end I don't want her to lose a friend or to feel awkward. It also has to be someone that is pretty because no one is going to believe that I would get with an ugly girl let alone an ugly Gryffindor. No one would believe that I would go with the Wesley girl plus she's one of Hermione's best friends. What about that Lavender Brown girl? She's kind of pretty I guess. And she's not that close to Hermione. But I did hear that she was seeing Weasley before and I will not have his seconds and I've heard her squealing in the hallways and I already have Pansy to hurt my eardrums I don't need another. Hmm what about those two twin sisters? They're quite pretty, and they're pure bloods which will make it more believable. But which one? I think one of them has the same free period as me. I'm pretty sure she hangs in the library too which means I can flirt with her incontrovertible of Hermione because everyone knows she spends most of her time in the library. I'm sure it begins with a p... Poppy? No that's not it. Poly? No that's not it either.. Pamela? Nope. Padma! That's the one. What better time to start my flirting that now.

Walking into the library I think of all the ways I could start talking to Padma without seeming suspicious or weird. Scanning the tables of students ranging in ages and houses I spot Hermione straight away. She's sat on her with her head buried in a book. Just a little further up the table is Padma sat scribbling furiously on a roll of parchment paper. How the hell am I going to start a conversation with her?! Walking towards her I notice her quill roll off the table and onto the floor as she reads over her work. Now that is a sign from Merlin that my plan will be achieved. I smoothly bend down besides her and pick up the quill from beside her. Noticing movement from beside her, Padma looks up from her parchment and right into my eyes as I present the quill to her. Her eyes quickly look between myself and the pen as if wondering whether this is really happening. A blush quickly rises on her cheeks as she hesitantly takes the quill from my hands. Stuttering she breaks the silence that has erupted in the library. I can feel Hermiones eyes on me and I have to hold back a smug smirk. "Th-thank you" she whispers.

"No problem beautiful" I wink at her as I grab her hand and kiss the back of it looking at her through my eyelashes in the most seductive way I can. Standing back up I wink at her and start walking away with my usual swagger. Throwing a smile over my shoulder I notice everyone is looking at me in bewilderment including Hermione.

"See you around beautiful" I call to Padma and watch as the blush deepens on her cheeks and Hermione's face contort into jealousy.

Let the games begin Hermione. You will talk to me again and you will be mine.
