"Of course! I'm a genius!"

"Cho Chang, huh? That'll be interesting Forge!"

Chapter 11

"Bloody hell! What the hell are you guys doing here? PERVERT!" Hermione was practically screaming her heads off when she woke up only to see the sight of the twin duo looking over her by her bed, in the GIRLS dorm! Desperately trying to silent her, Fred literally jumped on her bed, pinning her down with both his leg on top of hers, with his hands across her mouth, while George…well wasn't really doing much actually.

"Shush Hermione…you're gonna wake the other girls up. And you know how crazy they get around me and Gred around them. It'll be madness! HA HA HA!" George said, though halfway it seems to turn into a bragging story.

George looked around the room, confirming everyone was fast asleep -well it was freaking 2am in the morning! Who the hell wakes up at that time? Other than the Weasley twins of course- before letting Hermione know of the 'little' plan they had to convince Oliver how in love he is with Hermione. Fred, who was in fact enjoying every single moment he had 'sitting' on top of Hermione, just stayed put, and occasionally nodding in agreement with every single word his brother said to her.

"So, you in?" Fred asked, not realizing he was directly on top of her with his arms locked on both her sides. Since Hermione was still half asleep, she didn't really care who or what was on top of her, all she wanted then was her beauty sleep. But George, however, didn't stop himself from kicking his brother onto the ground.

"Fred, what the hell are you doing?" George half screaming, half whispering, when Fred bumped onto a cabinet which cause a loud THUD, which surprisingly didn't wake anyone up, but they did heard some groaning from the other girls, but they fell right back to sleep.

"You idiot! You kicked me off Forge! Argh Hermione, we better leave first before anyone really wakes up and catch us. See ya! Make sure you tell us your answers soon all right!" Fred said before 'poofing' both him and his brother to god knows where.

As soon as they left, Hermione went back into her deep slumber, as if nothing had happened, whilst Fred and George just ended up 'poofing' themselves outside the common room.

"Hey Fred! Are you insane? Honestly, how could you do that to Hermione of all bloody girls out there. I thought you HATED girls! Seriously, she's Oliver's woman you know. It'll be like betraying your best friend if—"

"George," Fred cut him off, calling his brother by his name for the very first time, "we both know it's impossible, so not get off. We're supposed to be the cupid…and I'm not the type of man who would interfere with a best friend relationship. You should know me that well by now George."

"Fred, I—"

"Nahhh, let's go back. Don't want Percy to catch us again like the previous time. I can't believe he made his brothers clean the lavatory as punishment. He's merciless I tell you," Fred shivered at the thought of cleaning the absolute disgusting lavatory Hogwarts ever have.

With only a week left for the Yule's Ball, everyone is getting ready with their dresses and tuxedos and of course, dates.

"What are you wearing for the ball, Hermione? Oh Merlin, I'm so excited! Aren't you? You're going with Wood, right?" Ginny asked, looking through her cupboard and tossing out all those dresses that didn't suit her taste on her bed. Practically everyone in the dorm was finding dresses, and as usual, Lavender and Parvati would just buy their way through…the advantages of being rich.

Hermione fiddled with her fingers nervously, hoping she could change the subject immediately, but once Ginny asks something, she demands an answer.

"Well Gin. I'm telling you this, but you have to swear you won't tell anyone," Ginny reluctantly nodded then looking at her best friend telling her to continue before she loses her mind with all the suspense, "I'm not going with Oliver…I'm going to the ball with—"

"Me!" a sudden voice was heard coming from the back of the room. It was none other than the blonde from Slytherine.

"Malfoy! Why are you here? And how the fuck did you get in here? Get the hell out you son of a gun!" Ginny snapped, pointing her wand at Draco in an instant, who was leaning against the door looking oh-so-magnificent.

"Woah woah…hold on Weasley," he scoffed, "I'm here to pick up my date, right Mione?" Draco said, walking towards Hermione, taking her hands into his, interlocking them. As much as Hermione wanted to resist, she had to make it look real, for the sake of Oliver…

Without another word said, Draco led Hermione down the hallways and to the Slytherine common room. Okay he was more of pulling her arms as though he was going to pull it out of her. His grip on her arm tightened with every stare they receive as they made through the hallways…especially the stares from girls who were head over heels OBSESSED with Draco. And then there was, Oliver and Cho standing oh-so-comfortably next to each.

What the hell is Oliver doing with another girl? And Cho Chang of all girls! Hermione thought, cursing and swearing with every bad words she knew in her head. Rage and fury crept up Hermione face in an instant as she stopped a few feet away from the couple, abruptly halting Draco.

'What's wrong?' he mouthed the words to Hermione, and for the first time, looking very worried. But all he got for an answer was the emotionless look plastered on her face looking at Oliver and Cho, mainly looking at Oliver.

"Darling…"Draco called out to Hermione ever so loudly, making Oliver shot up a look to both Hermione and Draco, "let's head back to Slytherine common room. The air feels so polluted wi—"

Draco was cut off by a punch to the face.

"DON'T TOUCH MY GIRL YOU BLOODY FERRET!" Oliver snapped, pulling Hermione out of Draco's tight grip on her arms, next to him. Cho was speechless, how could any guy resist me? Especially for a girl like Hermione!

Oliver gave Draco one last deathly glare before heading back to the Gryffindor's common room, his hands firmly held on Hermione's hands. They left the Slytherine seeker to stand there like an idiot in the middle of the hallway, and in front of the Great Hall, best known as the area with the most people, be it students, teachers or the ghosts.

"That nerve! How could he do such a thing," Cho fake sobbed, slowly wanting to lean against Draco for support. But before she could do so, he turned his heels and walked as quickly as he could away from the hallways. Embarrassed. Frustrated. And betrayed.

Further down the hallways where there was not a soul to be seen, Hermione desperately attempted to loosen the grip Oliver had on her hands. Finally giving up her escape, she cried out in pain, "Oliver! Stop! You're hurting m—"

She was cut off by a pain of lip that came crashing down to hers. Oliver immediately found the nearest wall for him to lean her against, slowly licking her lips begging for an entrance into her mouth. He wanted to feel her, kiss her, taste her…have her. Slowly, she parted her lips allowing Oliver to enter and taste her as her hands trailed down his perfect jaw line. Hermione let out a small moan when he began tracking down her neckline.

"Oliver…we should…stop…" she tried saying in the midst of the kiss.

However, all Oliver did was to deepen the kiss. He cupped her left breast, which left Hermione moaning. She immediately pushed his hands away, regretting every ounce of that reflex. He trailed back up and found her lips. Sliding he tongue into her mouth once more, he said, slightly out of breath, "You're..mine…No way…I'm giving you to…to…Malfoy…"

Hermione used the last bit of her consciousness to gently push Oliver away. Both of them were gasping for air, never has Hermione, nor Oliver has such an amazingly long snog in their life.

"I…Oliver…I'm really sorry—"

He hushed her, putting his index finger on her lips and shush-ing her.

"It's not your fault. I was being a jerk. I acted that way because I love you, and I hate when other guys looks at you…or touches you. And about whatever that happened…I know it isn't true. I wasn't thinking leaving you there when you needed me the most…so I'm sorry, Hermione. Please…would you forgive me?"

Oliver's eyes was filled with much remorse and regret, and most importantly, it was filled with love for Hermione. No doubt he was telling the truth.

"I love you Oliver, most ardently," Hermione tiptoed, kissing his cheeks. Heat flushed his cheeks in the matter of seconds.

"So I take that as my apology being accepted?" he said nervously, his head tilted to one side as though he was trying to read her mind.

"Apology…" she kissed his lips, "accepted."
