Hope you guys like this update, this was a pretty easy chapter to write. It's going to get a bit harder, because I know where I want to go, but not sure how to get there. But I'll keep working.

Disclaimer: I don't own Harry Potter, some of the coolest books I've ever read.

"Er, I mean Malfoy," Hermione corrected, flushing a bit, "What are you doing here?"

"Granger," Draco replied, staring intently at the pink faced witch in front of him.

While the two stared each other down, Ginny turned to Blaise, "What the hell is going on? I thought you said you had friend from out of town visiting and needed a date, explain!"

Blaise chuckled at the look Ginny was giving him, "You're beautiful when you're angry, you know that?"

"Why thank you," Ginny preened, "Wait! Stop complimenting me and explain yourself right now, Blaise Zabini!"

"Well, I did have a friend from out of town, but he was unable to come at last minute. So I convinced Draco to come along, I thought we might as well get some entertainment from watching the two bicker…which they don't seem to be doing," Blaise said, frowning slightly in confusion as he watched his best mate and Hermione continue to stare at each other.

"Excuse us," Ginny said, as she yanked Hermione to the bathroom. Once inside she demanded, "What was that?"

"What do you mean?"

"I mean the way you got all breathless and acted like Malfoy was the only person in the world, that's what I mean! If I didn't know better I'd say you're in love with him," Ginny said, chuckling at the thought.

Hermione reddened, "What if I was…?"

"WHAT? YOU'RE IN LOVE WITH M…."Ginny shrieked, her sentence being cut off by Hermione's hand covering her mouth before she could finish her sentence.

"Belt it, you're loud!" Hermione hissed, "Now, if I take my hand off, will you promise to be quiet?"

When Ginny nodded, Hermione removed her hand.

"So what happened?"

After Hermione had finished explaining, Ginny started to smile mischievously, an impish gleam in her eye. Gulping, Hermione said, "Don't even think of interfering Ginerva Molly Weasley!"

"Awww, why not," Ginny whined, looking disappointed.

"I said no!"

"Ffffine…"

Meanwhile back in the dining room, the boys were discussing the pair's strange behavior as well.

"So what happened, man?" Blaise asked Draco.

Draco ran his hands through his hair, and replied, "I don't know…we got stuck in a situation where we were stuck in close quarters, and it brought back all of the old feelings I had for her. We may have had a few snogging sessions as well. But we haven't had contact since then and I'm not sure if she wants to continue what we had going or not. I'm afraid to find out."

"That's tough, I'm not sure what I'd do in your situation either. But I do know that you'll never know if you don't take a risk and ask her how she feels and let her know how you feel."

"You're right," Draco agreed, dropping his head in his hands, "But why would she want someone like me, an ex-Death Eater and sarcastic jerk."

"I don't think Granger is petty enough to hold something like that against you, if she was, you wouldn't have fallen for her in the first place."

Raising his head, Draco said, "That's true, that's what first attracted me to her. I'll try to tell her, but don't hold your breath that anything will come of it."

Blaise just grinned as if he knew something Draco didn't. Just then the girls came back and the atmosphere changed and filled with unspoken tension.

"Ginny, sweetheart," Blaise whispered, leaning towards Ginny, "I can't contain myself much longer from taking that dress off you, so I really think we should be leaving. You two don't mind, do you?"

"Of course not," Hermione replied, "I should be leaving as well."

Ginny stopped her, catching on to Blaise's plan, "No stay, there is no need for my boyfriend's incessant needs to ruin a perfectly good meal. You two stay and enjoy."

Hermione started to protest again, but before she could get a word out, the couple was already out the door.

"I think we've been had," Draco drawled, both thankful and irritated by his friend's obvious attempt at matchmaking.

"We don't have to stay, they'll be none the wiser," Hermione suggested, not wanting Draco to be forced to stay when he didn't want to.

"No, it's ok, like Weasley said, why let a delicious meal go to waste. Or are you saying you can't stand the thought of eating with me?" Draco said, challenging her.

Hermione replied right as the food arrived, "Of course I can stand it, but I don't remember ordering."

Draco waved his hand dismissively as he started in on his meal, "I ordered for you, since you two were having an insanely long girl fest in the bathroom."

Hermione blushed, "She was just wondering why we weren't arguing."

Looking up, Draco responded, "And what did you tell her?"

"I don't her how we were trapped in the cabin and how we had to form a truce to keep from killing each other, and it might have slipped out that we snogged once or twice."

"Did you tell her anything else…?"

Hermione looked away, not able to look him in the eye for fear he'd discover her feelings for him, and replied, "Nope, that was all."

"I see…" Draco said, his heart plummeting. The way she looked away had to mean that she had told Ginny something she didn't want him to know. Maybe that she hadn't been able to be trapped with him and that she hadn't been happy to see him again, Draco thought bitterly.

The meal was finished in silence, as each of them were lost in their thoughts. Finally, as it was starting to get late, Draco asked for the check and paid.

"I'll escort you home," he told Hermione as they were walking out, his hand on her lower back.

Shivering at his touch, Hermione replied, "Its ok, you don't have to."

"Nonsense, how can I call myself a man if I let a woman go home unattended at this hour," Draco said, not seeing the slight disappointment in Hermione's eyes.

"Right, of course, always the gentleman," Hermione replied, with a small sarcastic edge, which was lost on Draco.

When the made it to her flat, he walked her to her door, and right as she was going through the doorway, he grabbed her and dragged her into his arms. Settling his lips over hers, he kissed her with all the pent up frustration of not seeing her for the past two weeks. He pulled his lips away and whispered fiercely, "I'm not always a gentleman, and but I don't make it a habit of snogging just any woman senseless."

Hermione's heart tripped at his words, was he saying what she thought he was? She looked up into his eyes, trying to find an answer.

Seeing her confused look, Draco answered slightly impatient, "I'm saying that the only person I want to be snogging senseless is you, Hermione."

Hermione's eyes widened, "Really?"

"Yes," he replied, kissing her again, "Now what do you say, would you like to be my girl?"

"Yes," Hermione whispered, before his lowered his head and kissed her again.
