Hermione walked out of the girls bathroom and was startled when she saw Draco standing near the door.
"Oh, what are you doing here?" Hermione asked him.
Draco chuckled, "To check on you of course."
Hermione shook her head. "I shouldn't be the one getting checked up on. Did you see what I did to Ron? I embarrassed him in front of everyone."
Draco scoffed. "Stop it Hermione. You didn't embarrass him, he embarrassed himself. He deserved everything you gave him."
Hermione halved smiled halved frowned. She still didn't feel good about it.
"Come on," Draco said, putting a friendly arm around her. "Let's go to class."
The day went by the slowest Hermione has ever witnessed.
During the classes Ron kept giving her pitiful glances and kept trying to get sympathy from Harry. Who wasn't giving him anything but a slap on the back of the head for being a jerk.
And Pansy Parkinson kept giving Hermione death glares for talking to Draco. Which was probably the highlight of her day. During every class, Draco would either stand or sit next to Hermione. He didn't once leave her side; which also earned them a lot of weird looks from students and even the teachers.
But it didn't matter to Hermione or Draco.
Hermione never realized they have more in common then she ever did with Ron.
"Ha ha, so I told him, 'you'll never get laid if you keep sleeping with your cat!'" Draco finished his rather hilarious story as he and Hermione were working on some work in their common room. The story made Hermione giggle, but she stopped giggling and looked into Draco's eyes.
They were the most beautiful, purest silver Hermione has ever seen.
"What?" Draco asked, looking at her sideways.
"Nothing, its just, your eyes."
"My eyes?"
"Yeah, they're the most beautiful eyes I've ever seen."
Draco was taken back, he's never been told something like that.
"Even more beautiful then Weasley's?" Draco asked, gently leaning forward till his nose was inches from her's.
"Defiantly." Agreed Hermione, closing the small space between them and giving Draco a nice subtle kiss.
After a few seconds of kissing, they pulled apart to breath.
"Well, ok then." Smiled Draco, breathing heavily.
Hermione giggled, and rubbed the back of her neck. "So, er, yeah." She didn't really know what else to say. Draco raised an eyebrow and stared at her, knowing the feelings they both felt for each other.
"Hermione." Draco said softly.
"Hm?"
"I love you."
"I love you too." Hermione said smiling.
The next day started off amazing. Hermione decided she really didn't wanna be alone so instead of her sleeping in her room she gladly accepted the offer of her sleeping in Draco's room with Draco.
And when she woke up his arms were around her protectively.
But sadly she had to get up to start the day.
Hermione and Draco were now walking to the Great Hall for a spot of breakfast. They both equally decided it wasn't the time for them to be holding hands down the corridors, and so they just kept it to walking together. Just walking.
When they entered the Great Hall, some of the students looked at them as if they were aliens from another planet. Draco started walking to a table that was fairly empty, Hermione saw Harry and Ginny sitting in front of Ron. But Ron was also sitting next to a girl. Hermione didn't know who the girl was, but decided it didn't concern her. Harry and Ginny probably hated now for what she had done.
"Hermione." Draco called from the table at which he was sitting at.
Hermione shook her head at her thoughts and sat down in front of Draco to see him better.
"You okay baby?" Draco asked lightly touching her hand. Which caused some people to whisper frantically.
"Mh-hm." Hermione nodded grabbing a plate and filling it with some toast and eggs. Draco did the same and they started to eat their breakfast together as many students were looking in on them. Wanting something else to happen.
After breakfast Hermione and Draco had to split.
Hermione along with other seventh year Gryfindors had to go to Potions along with the Ravenclaws. As the Slytherins and Hufflepuff's had Herbology.
When Hermione walked into the potions classroom she noticed Ron sitting with the same girl he sat with during breakfast, and Harry was sitting alone. Deciding she needed to talk to Harry, she chose her seat next to him.
"Hey Mione." Greeted Harry friendly patting her on her back
"Hey Harry."
During the potions lesson, which was so boring it even bored Hermione, Harry and her were talking in hushed tones.
"So, what's with you and Malfoy?" Harry asked curiously.
"Well, Harry, we are kind of going out."
Harry stared at her for three minutes before replying.
"Hermione, he tormented us for years. He called you Mu-"
"I know what he has done to us Harry." Hermione said, ever so slightly raising her voice in annoyance.
"What do you see in him?" Asked Harry looking at the professor to make sure he didn't hear them talking.
"Everything. He treats me with respect, he doesn't try to make out with me every single second. He's funny and kind, and we have amazing conversations that I've never had with Ron."
Harry looked down and nodded.
"Hermione we've been through a lot with each other. And you going out with Malfoy isn't going to change our friendship. It might change yours and Ron's however, but you'll always be my bestfriend." Saying that, Harry gave Hermione a giant hug as the bell rang.
Walking to her next class, Hermione felt so much better. Honestly, the one friendship she cared most about was the one with her and Harry.
Just then, someone grabbed Hermione by her waist. Which made her scream and turn around.
"Damn it Draco!"
Draco smiled and kissed Hermione right then and there. In front of everyone, including Ron. Who looked like he was about to cry.
"Draco what are you doing?" Hermione asked as he finally stopped kissing her.
"Kissing my girlfriend."
