A/N: Thanks to all of those who read & review I really appreciate it. And only one person managed to take a guess at my penname. laffytgirl ( guessing that it was lyrics from the music or the memory lyrics, close enough it was music or the misery soo…

Chapter is dedicated to laffytgirl (

Draco was going insane with thoughts of Hermione. After kissing her his mind went into over drive. He tried so hard to repress every feeling he ever has. He only allows himself to feel and express the emotions, and actions people expect of him. He had made up his mind that he would have her, in the only justifiable way he could have her, for sex. He was so thrown off when he kissed her, felt her. He only wanted to feel lust for her. He was so conflicted he was sure he probably looked like he was attacked by another hippogriff.

He had retired to the Slytherin common room after his little interaction with Pansy. He felt so pathetic, he had just gotten a perfectly good nut off, and he still couldn't get the slightly less than prudish interaction with Hermione out of his mind. He didn't even go to the Great Hall for dinner. He couldn't see her. Sitting over there with Potty and Weasel, who if they knew what he had done to their princess, were probably plotting his death, but he was almost certain she wouldn't tell anyone. She did kiss him back after all; she had reacted to his touch. She had moaned for him. He did wonder if he would ever get the chance to take it further. She was probably scarred of his actions, and of her own reactions. He would probably have to gain even the tiniest amount of trust if he was going to get what he truly wanted, well the tiniest bit of what he truly wanted.

He shook his head and rubbed his eyes. He had to get out of his own head, she was driving him crazy. He didn't know what he would do anymore, he found himself thinking he wanted her, and in a way he could never have her. He himself had just wrapped his mind around being able to have her for a shag. For Merlin's sake it would be hard enough to get that.

"Earth to Draco." He saw a dark hand waving in front of him.

"What Blaise?" He sneered at his friend.

"What's got your wand in a knot?" He asked Draco.

"You made a move on Granger." He stated calmly.

Draco's eyes widened, "She told someone?" He whispered harshly.

"Hah yeah right." He said with a smirk.

"Then how did you know?" He asked genuinely confused.

"Mate, no matter how good at Occlumency I can still tell what goes on in that pretty little blonde head of yours." He teased with a smile. "So come on tell me all about it? She hex you?"

"No, she liked it alright but I think she's rather scared." He said while looking at the floor.

"Can you blame her…especially considering some things." He said unsure of what his friend's reaction would be.

"No." He said quickly in a hushed tone. "I just don't know what to do; I want her …perhaps a little too much."

"It's a challenge yes, but it's just sex, I thought you only wanted to have a little difficult fun anyway."

"Yes that was the plan, it's proving a little more difficult." He said again with his eyes on the ground. He was searching for a reason to act on his feelings he knew he couldn't have.

"Look man you know I don't have such extreme views on blood, but it's the world we live in, the way we were brought up. You being a special case, my mom might not be happy, but your situation…don't you have enough on your plate? You can fuck her; I thought that was all you wanted. If you want advice from me I'm here. But I don't think you need it, sometimes you just wanna hear things from me so you don't have to think it's coming from you. Granger's not your typical girl, I'm sure she likes whatever you did to her, but she won't let herself be with Malfoy in that way, maybe you need to show her a sliver of Draco."

"You said my situation, what do you mean?" Draco asked Blaise.

"Your dad would kill you."

"For what?"

Blaise looked his friend in the eye. "You know what I'm talking about. I can see it, I get it ok I'm not judging you, but you can't have anything more with her than a shag."

Draco's face was stone. He knew his friend was right, he hadn't even allowed himself to think on the emotions he was having.

"So you're the all-knowing one here, what do I do now?"

"Why Draco Malfoy Slytherin Sex God himself asking measly old me for advice on bedding a girl?" he mocked him.

" Ha ha you're so funny, I could've bedded her today, it's a matter of doing things a little differently, she's different." He said coolly.

"Well you said she liked it but she seemed scared right? I think you'll probably want to try and make her a tad bit more comfortable around you. I mean especially now she'll be nervous at the sight of you, rather innocent that one is isn't she." He stated.

Draco nodded deep in thought, and Blaise continued.

"Let her know stuff about you, yes I know you'd rather snog Crabbe than let down those guards you cling to, just do it. She loves to read, I know you're a closeted bookworm use it. Be yourself, she clearly has to have some sort of attraction to you, she did stuff with you. Just work it out I faith in you Sex God." Blaise finished by patting him on the back.

"Ever get tired of using that nick name?"

"Oh hell no I find it hilarious." He smirked.

"Oh is that because you're jealous it isn't you Blaise." Draco laughed.

"Mate no offense but I could never be jealous of someone in your current lot of predicaments." He said looking to his friends left forearm.

Draco nodded knowingly. "I've got some ideas for Granger."

"Hermione." Blaise corrected. "Granger to me, Hermione to you."

Draco sneered. "Yeah yeah is this lesson over love master Zambini?" Draco added sarcastically.

"Oh until you come calling for my expertise again, just don't come asking for advice on anything else if ya catch my drift. I may be in Slytherin but I prefer to keep my business light and airy rather than dark and scary." He jokingly said to Draco.

"I'm trying to ignore it thank you very much, I still have time." The mood suddenly changed to a very serious one.

"Not enough mate." He added sadly. With one more sympathetic look to his friend he headed to his dorm, leaving Draco with his thoughts of a certain challenging girl.
