Chapter 7

Hermione and Malfoy has been stuck in the house for hours...or maybe minutes...well it seemed like hours. There was no back door or open window just a locked back door.

Malfoy has taken his school robes off as it started to get warm in the house as Hermione had lit a fire, but Hermione was to busy pacing and blurting out suggestions to get out or insulting the owners of the house for their shoddy door.

"Granger you're making me dizzy please stop." Malfoy said from the sofa he was sitting on.

"Well I don't see you trying to help." Hermione snapped throwing herself unceremoniously next to him on the sofa as it was the only seat in the very small house.

"I have a plan, wait until the owners come back and put on my best innocent face and apologise." Malfoy shrugged.

Hermione let out a 'Huff' and fell further into the seat.

Hours(and now it was definitely hours as it was now dark) later and still the owners of the cottage had still not come back.

"What are you doing?" Granger had suddenly got up and went over to Draco's forgotten letter.

"Apologising and then finding somewhere where I can sleep." Granger said, Draco could hear the exhaustion in her voice. Wait when did he start noticing what her voice sounded like?

"Oh." Malfoy got up and looked over Hermione's shoulder to see what she was writing.

Once again apologies, my classmate and I got locked in and we waited for hours, but it got too late so we went to sleep. If we are still asleep when you get home just wake us. My apologies yet again.

"Ok let's go see if they actually own a bed in this dump." Malfoy mumbled.

"Malfoy!" Hermione yelled.

"What? Oh come on Granger look at this place there's dust everywhere and their door locks on its own! And they have one small window in each room and I keep almost hitting my head!" Draco complained knowing it would get under her skin.

"Malfoy do you want to sleep outside!?" Hermione shouted at the smirking Malfoy.

Malfoy ignored her and walked up the small staircase, Hermione followed sulkily behind him. They got up stairs and saw three doors. Hermione and Malfoy exchanged looks before both going to different rooms, each in one side of the house. Hermione opened hers to find a bathroom.

Malfoy opened his door to find a...broom cupboard? Draco turned to Granger who was wearing the scared expression he was sure he was also sporting. They both walked to the middle door and Draco reached out to the door handle, he opened the door to find one double bed.

"You're taking the sofa!" They both yelled at the same time. "No I'm not!" They said in unison again.

"Where are your manners Malfoy, isn't it polite or to let the lady to have the bed or whatever." Hermione said her cheeks tinged pink with rage.

"I don't see a lady anywhere." Draco looked around in mock confusion before looking back at Grangers almost completely red face.

"You arse!" Hermione yelled before stomping into the bedroom. She took off her robe and shoes and got into the bed.

"What are you doing in my room?" Malfoy asked his cheeks now also pink with fury. This was getting old.

"You mean my room. And believe it or not I'm trying to sleep." Hermione smirked slightly at Malfoy's pink cheeks.

"But I won't fit on the sofa!" Draco Pouted...it didn't work. Strange that worked on all girls usually.

"Don't pout at me just because this house has no more rooms." Hermione said sternly.

Draco suddenly had a fabulous idea. He started to get into the bed as well.

"What the hell!" Hermione screamed, she leaped out the bed. Malfoy smirked.

"Thanks. The sofas downstairs, you can't miss it." Draco smirked to himself. It was just too easy to annoy her.

Then Malfoy's smirk fell and his eyes widened.

"What do you think you're doing mudblood?" Malfoy's voice was enough to make Hermione want to recoil.

"I told you I'm not sleeping on the sofa." Hermione said trying to sound strong, but she knew she had failed. Malfoy shot daggers at her. "I swear if you move such as a toe onto my side of this bed, I will punch you again."

"Give me one of your pillows." Malfoy snapped. Granger gave him a confused look. "I'm making a pillow wall, I don't want Mudblood germs." Draco wasn't even convinced, but Granger seemed to choose to ignore it. She handed him a pillow and they both settled down for the night.

"One toe Malfoy and-" Hermione punched her hand threateningly.

"Ok, ok I get it." Malfoy put his hands up in the air sarcastically.
