Thank you thank you thank you for my reviews!

Chapter 11

Blaise lay with his head in Ginny's lap as they sat by the lake that afternoon.

"Did you hear about Katie and Marcus?"

"Yes." Blaise chuckled. "I don't know which of them is more nervous about it."

"Mm." Ginny smiled running her fingers through his hair. "I think Angelina and Adrian have something planned for tomorrow as well now."

"They're all trying to copy us."

"We're a hard act to follow." Blaise took hold of her waist and pulled her down. She fell on the grass beside him and Blaise hovered above her, using one arm to support himself.

"Hello."

"Hello." Blaise leant down and gave her a slow, sensual kiss.

"Did I mention how happy I am that you became a Slytherin?"

"I think you've mentioned it at least 100 times in the last 2 hours." Blaise kissed her again sliding his hands up under her shirt.

"Mm Blaise wait." Ginny turned her head to the side pulling away from the kiss.

"Sorry too fast?"

"Um yes! You at least have to buy me three more meals before you get those hands anywhere near my bra."

"I don't suppose your hungry now?"

"I'm a little bit nibblish. Why?"

"Does afternoon tea count as a meal?"

"Let me guess your plan is buy me afternoon tea now, dinner tonight, then breakfast tomorrow and have your hands up my shirt my lunchtime?"

"Pretty much."

"Patience isn't your virtue is it?"

"Well I already had kindness and diligence, not to mention my good looks and charm. I had to leave some virtues for the rest of my family."

"How very generous of you."

"I thought so. For example, I left chastity to my cousin."

"Very thoughtful. That wasn't something you wanted for yourself?"

"Personally I think it's overrated."

"Really?"

"Mm." Blaise gave her another quick peck on the lips before pulling her to her feet. "Come on, meal one awaits."

"No, Draco absolutely not! I'm never getting on that thing again." Hermione snapped as Draco brandished the Nimbus.

"Come on Hermione. Look I feel bad about what I said earlier. Why don't you let me make it up to you by helping you get over your fear of heights?"

"No, no, never again."

"Hermione there's nothing to be afraid of. Think of how much easier your life would be if you could fly."

"I like my life just fine thank you."

"Why don't I prove how safe it is?" Draco had mounted his broom and flown to about a height of 100m over the ground. Hermione watched in horror as he held his arms out to the side, smiling confidently.

"Draco you'll kill yourself!" She yelled at him not sure why she suddenly cared.

"No I won't! Because it's safe!" He swooped down towards her and Hermione closed her eyes expecting to hear a crash. When she opened them he was hovering a meter above the ground, watching her with amusement. "See?"

Hermione didn't move as he landed beside her and moved her hands around the handle of the broom.

"Now just hold the broom like this. Hermione you'll have to move your fingers to hold on."

"This is bad, this isn't safe."

"It's perfectly safe. Right, now one leg over, that's it." Hermione shook as he slid onto the broom behind her. "Alright, now lean forward and off we'll go."

"Draco I can't."

"Yes you can. I won't let anything happen. Trust me."

"I don't trust you."

"Wise decision." Draco leaned forward and they moved off.

"No! No! No! I can't do this. I want down."

"Nope we're going up. Open your eyes Hermione."

Hermione did. Oh sweet Merlin. They were nearly as high as the clouds.

"Lean this way." Draco took hold of her shoulders and gently pushed her down to her right. The broom smoothly veered around. "And back this way." He tilted her to the left. Despite feeling like her death was imminent, Hermione was happily surprised with the smoothness of the flight.

"That's it. Now gently lean back towards me." Hermione did so until her back rested against his chest. The broom drew to a halt. "You've got it." Hermione exhaled loudly trying not to scream. Looking down she could see students walking back from Hogsmeade and others just milling about outside.

"Is that Blaise and Ginny?" Hermione asked, momentarily forgetting her fear. Draco followed where her finger was pointing at a couple walking towards the castle.

"Looks like them. Let's fly down and check. Lean forward to go and tilt the broom downwards at about a 45-degree angle."

Ginny was shocked to see Hermione flying towards her, and with Malfoy no less.

"What are you two doing?" Blaise called to them.

"Teaching Hermione to fly." Draco replied easily. Hermione drew herself up and they paused just above Ginny and Blaise.

"But Hermione you're scared of flying. You've always been scared of flying."

"All depends on the teacher I guess." Blaise teased her. Hermione blushed a little.

"So where were you too?"

"We went down to the lake. Then we decided to get some afternoon tea." Ginny replied cheerfully.

"Sure you were." Draco grinned at his friend. Blaise smirked back at him.

"Guess we'll see you in here." He said.

"Right, Hermione, you can show me which one is Gryffindor tower." Hermione rolled her eyes but she didn't feel scared anymore. The feeling of Draco's toned body against her back was strangely distracting.

"Yes master." She replied dryly.

"That sounds so good coming from you. I think we should make it my official nickname."

Hermione snorted derisively.

"You wish Ferret."
