Hi... :D
Disclaimer: Although my bedroom is fully decked out in HP items that I own, I don't own them- JKR was the main reason behind my bedroom... I'm a stalker xD . I used Isabella's (Phineas and Ferb) catch phrase with a switch of the words. I use a couple (2) wizarding swears from the Potter Puppet Pals youtube video- I didn't come up with them.
This is a very short chapter, but Kayla still helped with it, so: Dedication to Kayla!
Thanks Renesmee/Emmett for the ideas for upcoming chapters :D if anyone else has suggestions, keep them coming!Draco's POV
After we re-entered the castle, I left Hermione at Room 5 and kept going down the hall until I reached Room 13.
I entered into my dorm room and saw the other three boys. Neville was trying to pry open a small glass box with one hand, while holding Trevor in the other. Terry and Ernie were sitting on Terry's bed looking through a Quidditch catalog and fantasizing about what it'd be like to ride on the newly released Nimbus 2000 broomstick.
I sauntered over to Neville and tapped on his shoulder. He turned around, Trevor still in hand. "Here's your wand back... I took it because I needed a wand for my scavenger list."
Neville nodded and took the wand that I was holding out. "Uh, thanks for returning it... It was my dad's ya know. I inherited it from him just last week."
"Your dad doesn't need it?" I asked him.
Neville turned away from me and went back to trying to open the thick glass box. "Son of a banshee, that's smarts!" Neville cried when he cracked the glass and it scarred a couple fingers.
Terry and Ernie turned to stare at him after hearing his little outburst, "Hagrid's buttcrack, did you just swear? You sure don't seem like the type of person who does, Neville!" Ernie remarked.
"Okay, well, I'm just going to grab my book and be on my way," I grabbed it from my trunk at the foot of my bed, then left.
Hermione's POV
When Draco dropped me off at my dorm room before going to search for Neville, I watched him continue down the hall, wondering where his dorm was. I rested my body against the door as I stood, making the wooden door creak a little. It was taking him a while to reach his dorm. Just as he slowed down...
I fell, slamming myself onto the hard wooden floor of my dorm room. "Hermione? You okay? What were you doing leaning against the door?"
I got up rather quickly and looked up to see Rory standing next to Leanne.
"Um, I was, uh... I got bored and was trying to count how many doors down I could see? I got to, uh, 15 before you two opened the door..." I replied weakly.
"Why not try reading next time? You've brought so many muggle books, I expected you would be in here reading most of the time. Well, Leanne and I are going down to the Great Hall for the next group gathering, are you coming with us?" Rory responded.
Draco's POV
After leaving my dorm, I saw three girls walking down the hall: they all had dark hair, two had linked arms and the third had a major bush of hair and a book in-hand: Hermione.
I decided not to rush up and join them, in fear of the Rory girl who had previously flirted with him, batting her eyes and trying to add a couple hair flips; she freaked me out because she looked like her neck was cramping.
I trailed behind them by seven feet and followed them down the hall, hoping that they'd separate and Hermione'd be alone again. Upon reaching the entrance, they turned left and entered through the double doors into the Great Hall.
Hermione's POV
When the three of us were entering the Great Hall, I turned my head to look down the hall toward the dorms and saw Draco.
"He looks so handsome, carrying books around," Hermione thought to herself after noticing a very large book entitled Great Wizards of the 20th Century at his side.
Draco's POV
I waved at Hermione and heard her say: "I'll see you later" to Rory and Leanne, before she turned around and walked over to me.
"Hey, whatcha readin'?" She asked me, hands behind her back.
"This is actually for you. I know how you've been reading up on wizarding history in the library and I thought this could come in handy." I replied, holding the book out to her.
Hermione's POV
My eyes wouldn't stop flashing between Draco and the book.
"He is giving me a book? He's the first person to ever give me a nice gift since I moved here from France (except for my relatives, that is)!" I thought to myself.
I took the book from him and wrapped my arms around him in a hug, resting my head on his left shoulder.
I said: "Merci" followed by a whispered translation: "Thank You."
Draco's POV
"She's resting her head against my shoulder and just spoke French" was all I could think to myself. I repeated this to myself many times until I finally opened my mouth and said, "You're welcome." I would've said it in French, but I'd never taken French in my life.
I didn't want to let go of her because she smelled so good... she smelled like apples and cinnamon and it was addicting me.
"Hermione!" Leanne and Rory shouted toward us; Hermione broke the hug at hearing her name and waved at them.
"Thanks again," Hermione replied, with a smile, before walking over to the two girls, still holding her newly acquired book in her hands.
Hermione's POV
I am m-a-d: MAD at Leanne and Rory right now. They just made me break off a hug with Draco Malfoy! When my cheek touched his neck (A/N the minor height difference), I noticed how cold he was. It felt really nice with the summer heat that roamed the school to be holding something cold. Not to mention his smell: mint and vanilla. It made a great aroma come from him. I'd never forget that smell anytime soon, that was for sure...
I was blushing very red by the time I arrived to the pair.
"So do you still expect me to believe you when you say that you two aren't dating?" Rory asked, Leanne nodding at her words.
"Oh!My!Gosh! Rory, Draco and I aren't dating, is that the only reason why you called me over here?" I asked them, still red in the face, holding back a huge smile.
"No, the other reason was because we wanted to ask if you want to duel."
I don't want to leave this huge of a cliffy, but my story has only gotten a couple views these past few days and they're all from me, so sorry about that! I'll try and upload a new chapter soon D:
