A/N: Enjoy!!
Chapter 14
"I can't believe I'm saying this Malfoy, but that was the best pasta I have ever tasted!" Hermione slurred. They had just finished eating and after downing three glasses of Firewhisky in the space of five minutes, Hermione had forgiven Malfoy for throwing the sauce at her.
"Are you giving me a compliment Granger?" Draco wasn't as drunk as Hermione.
"Why yes, I think I am!" She poured herself another glass.
"I'm soooo drunk!"
Draco laughed at her stupid behaviour. He watched her as she struggled to stand up.
"Whoa! Let me give you a hand."
Draco took Hermione's arm and put his arm around her petite waist, and carried her to the sofa. The fire was still roaring.
"You know what Malfoy?" Hermione sat down, legs wide open and the bottle of Firewhisky in her hands.
""What?"
"You are a very surprising man!"
"Really?" Draco was amused. He knew she would be saying something that the mature, not drunk Hermione would never say!
"I mean," she grabbed Draco by the hand and pulled him towards her so that he was facing her. He could smell the strong scent of the alcohol reeking from her breath.
"One minute you're the nasty evil git and then the next minute you're the handsome innocent angel. As if you've…" He cut her off.
"You think I'm innocent?" he moved forward and inch.
"Sometimes!"
"You think I'm handsome?" He moved even closer.
"Yes, yes. You're like a…a Greek God with that hair!"
"Really?" they were so close that there was hardly any gap between the two.
"Malfoy?" Hermione whispered.
"Yeah?" Draco muttered, feeling himself going all hot.
"I think…I think I'm gonna…kiss you!"
"Oh!" Draco closed his eyes waiting for Hermione's lips to touch his. But the touch never came. He felt a weight on his chest. Draco opened his eyes slowly to see that Hermione had fallen asleep, her head resting on his chest.
The bottle of Firewhisky had rolled out of her hands and onto the floor, empty. Draco chuckled. He gazed at Hermione's sleeping form. She looks so peaceful.
Hermione snorted. Maybe not!
He picked her up and carried her weightless figure to the bed. One hand under her legs and the other hand on the back of her neck. She didn't move.
Draco carefully laid her down on the soft bed, removing his arms from underneath her. He pulled the covers over her.
He was about to leave when a soft, warm hand wrapped its fingers round his wrist.
"Stay with me, please?"
Her face glowed in the candle light, her curls shaping her small face. He couldn't say no.
"Sure." He sat down beside her on the bed. He let her wrap her arms around his. She began to drift off. Breathing slowly. In and out. Her chest heaving.
Soon he too fell asleep, lying together, enveloped in her warmth.
The sun soaked Hermione with its brightness. She groaned. Her head felt like a rock, weighing her down. Unable to move, Hermione lay there as last night came flooding in. the lovely dinner Draco had made, drinking too much and kissing…
Wait, did I kiss him? No I didn't! Hermione tried hard to recall what actually happened between her and Draco. Not knowing was eating her inside. This place is gonna drive me crazy!
Her right arm was suddenly feeling numb. She tried to move it but couldn't. She glanced at her arm and noticed that it wasn't her arm that she could see. It was Draco's. She was practically hugging him, as if holding onto him for dear life.
He was sitting up. Really close to Hermione. She could feel the warmth from his body radiate through her. She didn't want to wake him up but she was losing feeling in her arm gradually.
"Malfoy? Malfoy, wake up."
He stirred, his blonde hair flopping into his closed eyes. Hermione, suddenly had the urge to push the strands away, but resisted.
"Mhm…"
"Malfoy?"
"…"
"Malfoy?"
"…"
"MALFOY!"
"Whozzere?" He mumbled as his body fell from the floor. He groaned and Hermione stifled back a laugh.
"What the hell?" Draco groaned.
"Sorry Malfoy, but my arm was going dead!"
Hermione rubbed her arm, trying to get some feeling back into it. She tried standing up but that only resulted in her falling back down again.
"Er Malfoy…what happened last night? Cause my head feels too big for my body, its weighing me down and I have a headache the size of America!"
"Right…well…er…"
"Malfoy! Get to the point!"
"Jeez woman, I'm getting there!"
Draco picked himself up from the cold floor and shuffled to the kitchen. He poured himself some water and began to talk.
"Well Granger, a lot happened last night!"
Hermione gulped.
"W-what do you me-mean?"
Draco put down his glass and sat on the chair, opposite Hermione.
"I mean, that WE," he emphasised the word, scaring Hermione, "had the best night EVER! You were all over me!"
"WHAT?"
"Seriously Granger! You made noises that I've never heard a woman make!"
"W-what are….you're j-joking…r-right?"
"No I'm not Granger!"
Hermione stared at Draco feeling scared, ashamed and disgusted. She didn't think the worst. Everything was spinning around. She couldn't breathe. Her headache was twice as big as America! Everything was blurry and before she knew it everything turned black.
