There was continuous tapping at her door. Hermione groaned as she sank deeper into her bed. The knocking however didn't stop. Slightly groggy she turned to look at her alarm clock. 8:00 Am.....Who in the world was waking her up this early on a Sunday morning? She rolled over trying to go back to sleep when suddenly the events of the previous night came back to her.

"Draco",she squealed as she rushed to open her door. Her smile however slipped of her face when she came face to face with Ron.

"Did you just call me Draco?"

"No" was the instinctive reply out of her mouth. Luckily enough Ron dropped the subject and pulled her closer as he hugged her tightly. Hermione let him but regretted her decision the next second as Draco's emerged from his room and his eyes met hers. Ron who was unaware of the presence of anyone else leaned in slightly and kissed Hermione. Hermione saw Draco flinch and tried to pull away from Ron.

"What you doing in our common room Weasley?" Draco barked.

Ron unwillingly tore his lips away from Hermione's and turned to face him,"Kissing my girlfriend Malfoy. Can't you see that?"

"Your displays of affection are sickening me. I do not wish to view such disturbing sights early morning." He took a step closer towards Ron and Hermione saw his fists clench. However before anything could have been done Ron grabbed Hermione's hand and pulled her into her room,"You're right Malfoy. You shouldn't have to watch this."And to Draco's horror closed the door to Hermione's room.

As he heard the lock click Draco slumped onto the floor. What was he thinking? When he woke up it was with a smile as he thought of spending the whole day with Hermione. He angrily ran a hand through his hair. He should have known. Hermione would never chose him over the Weasel. He had tormented her for years. With a bitter laugh he got up and quickly got dressed and walked out of the common room letting the potrait door bang shut behind him.

Hermione had barely recovered from the shock of Ron's presence when she found herself being pulled into her room. She saw the hurt on Draco's face as Ron closed the door but she couldn't do anything about it. Everything was too complicated-how could she tell Ron of her attraction towards another? Not just any other but Draco Malfoy who had always insulted Ron's family. Lost in thought she barely realised when Ron made her sit on the bed and sat down beside her. He smiled at her. The same smile that used to make her swoon within but she felt nothing.

"He's still a jerk isn't he?"he asked as he wrapped his arm around her shoulder.

She managed a weak smile. She didn't trust herself to comment. It seemed Ron didn't care much for her comment anyway as he pressed his lips against hers hard. Hermione didn't feel the jolt she felt when she'd kissed Draco last night. Ron however didn't want a no for an answer and he pressed his lips harder against hers. Resigned Hermione kissed him back but pulled away quickly when she heard the door banging.

Ron looked at her,"What's wrong 'Mione?"

Hermione opened her door and looked around. Sure enough Draco had left the Common Room,"I just woke up Ron. Why don't you go for breakfast? i'll join you in ten minutes."

Ron got up and pecked her cheek,"Sure thing. See you in the great hall."

The moment he walked out of the common room Hermione let the tears fall. What had she got herself into? She couldn't just keep playing with Ron's heart this way. He was one of her best friends. She quickly scribbled a note to Draco and left it on his bed. She made the mistake of inhaling Draco's scent just as she had leaned over his pillow to place the note. It made her senses reel. Shaking her head she hurriedly showered and got dressed and then ran to the Great Hall.
