A/N: Yeah, I know that it's later then when I said I would update, but I had this huge English test that I was studying for. I got a really mean (for the lack of a better word) review from, someone named AnonymousFlamer, it really was discouraging, yeah I get it you don't like my story there's an easy solution to that don't read it, no need to post three review saying the same thing, unlike your self I'm not thick headed. Anyways, thank to those of you who reviewed with reviews. I made it to 60 reviews! I love you guys so much. My new goal is 70 reviews by the end of this chapter. Thanks to the guest reviewer for the ideas you sent in, it got some of my creativity flowing. Umm... you can send in things you want me to add in any time, I'll consider it.
Hermione's POV
"How about we play a game or two of exploding snaps?" Blaise suggests eventually, breaking the awkward silence.. We nod and get into teams of three; me, Ginny and Luna, against Draco, Blaise and Harry.
"Okay, so here are the rules, only one person from each team at a time, and who ever reaches fifteen no - twenty points first wins, girls will be blue, and we will be red." Blaise explains the rules, as we settle in. The girls win the first to win a point. About twenty minutes, we were winning 8-3. Luna put down a card and so did Draco; Draco's card exploded; giving us girls another point.
"Come on guys, we have to win, I'm not going to lose against, Bookworm Granger, Weaselette, and Loony Lovegood" Draco says, his competitive side coming out, Aww! He's so cute when he gets all competitive, Oh Hermione you really bad, he looks over at us, and I frown at being called Bookworm, "no offense to you guys or anything but, that's who you are." he says smiling, showing us that he's just hour or so later, we ended, with us girls winning, 20-18.
"So what do you want to do now, there is no way that I'm playing another game of Exploding Snaps?" Harry asks his hair even more messy, from all the times that his cards exploded.
"Do you guys know how to play Gobstones?" Blaise ask. Me, Harry and Luna shake our heads. "Oh well, it's easy enough to play." Blaise says conjuring up a wooden board with a whole in the middle and four white rings drawn around it, and two sets of what I assume to be Gobstones. "The point of the game is to knock the opponents' stones into the hole, before the other team knocks yours in. The stones are alternated in the beginning, and if you knock your own stone in then it will squirt you with green slime, it will only come off when the game ends." I nod, it was kind of like the muggle game of marbles. We split into teams of three again, this time Harry, Ginny and Blaise, against Draco, Luna and me.
We sit down across from each other with the board in the middle, not having too much space in between the two beds in the room, we sit really close together, my arm brushing against Draco's, sending a spark of electricity up my arm, I moved ever so slightly closer to Luna, not knowing if he had felt it too. Just then the door opened, a tired looking Mrs. Weasely walked in. "You kids aren't asleep yet, you all better head off to bed now, we have to leave at eight to be at Hogsmeade in time to be home for dinner." she said sternly, making sure Luna, Ginny and I went to our rooms to sleep.
Draco's POV
"Hey," Hermione says coming into the Heads Common room, and sitting next to me, leaning her head to rest on my shoulder. I stiffen slightly, but then relax right away. Hermione not noticing snuggles closer into the crook of my neck. I slowly wrap my arm around her waist, pulling her impossibly closer, only slightly confused at her behavior. "You know Draco, that I'm completely available?" she breathes against my neck. I shiver involuntarily; I can feel her smile against my shoulder. I adjust her so she is sitting in my lap, she buries her face into my chest, slowly I take her head in my hands and lift it up towards my face and lean down until our lips touch and kiss her softly. She wraps her arms around my middle and leans her head against my chest and smiles.
"Hey, Mione want to go take a walk by the lake" I ask her whispering in her ear not wanting to scare her away or anything.
"Sure," she replies equally as soft. She gets off of my lap, and takes my hand, intertwining our fingers, still smiling. We walk outside and to the lake, our hands still together. We walk closer to the lake when she trips, and falls into the lake. Shocked I stand there unable to move as the giant squid wraps a tentacle around her and pulls under.
"Hermione," I wake up, taking in my surroundings, breathing deeply, only to find Blaise and Harry, laughing.
"Man, you've got it bad Draco," Harry says, I give him a confused look, because to be honest I don't know what he's talking about, "oh please don't pretend you don't like Mione, it's obvious to everyone."
"Just go to sleep you two." I growl by breath slowing down to normal speed. Harry and Blaise let out a quick chuckle, before going back to sleep.
Ginny's POV
"Mione," get up. I throw a pillow at her, "it's nearly seven thirty, we have to leave in about half an hour we're waiting for you to come downstairs for breakfast." She just turns around in her bed and puts the pillow I just threw at her over her head, blocking my voice. "Okay that's it Hermione Jean Granger, if you don't wake up this instant then I will do something, that I will regret doing eventually." I wait for her to respond, but she just lets out a snore."Don't says I didn't warn you, Augamenti frigidum" I say cold water blasting out of my wand, hitting her on the back. Hermione jumps up, and turn to face me giving me a look that could kill. I shrug giving her a sheepish smile, leaving the room, giving her time to get ready and relax, an angry Hermione isn't one you want to know. I go downstairs and find Harry, Blaise, Draco, and Luna talking over pancakes.
"Thank you Mrs. Weasely, these were really good," Blaise says, taking another pancake.
"Oh please call me Molly," Mum replies, "Where's Mione?" she says looking at me.
"She just got up, she'll be here in a few minutes or so." I tell Mum. "Harry, I have to talk to you, alone." I say, signaling him to come into the other room with me. I put a silencing charm up so that no one else can hear.
"What do you need Gin." Harry asks sounding worried.
"It's Hermione," I say pausing, waiting to see if he realizes the same thing as me or not.
"What about Mione?" apparently not.
"Have you noticed that she's acting kind of weird lately?"
"Yeah, now that you mention it she does a seem a little different-"
"-when she's around Draco Malfoy." I finish before Harry could get another word in, "Isn't it obvious, she likes him, and he likes her. They're perfect for each other, I have the bestest (A/N: I know that's not a real word but whatever lol :) idea ever and you're going to help me."
"Ginny I don't know what you're thinking of but I don't really think that it's a good idea, I mean what if they don't like each other." Harry says.
"Are you really that daft, even a blind person could see that they like each other, and it's not like I'm going to do something rash, all I'm going to do is make them spend some more time together alone." I say, giving him puppy dog eyes knowing he can't resist.
"Fine." He agrees, "but you're going to need Blaise and Luna's help too." Smirking he takes the silencing charm down. "Blaise, Luna come here for a minute," he calls into the other room before putting the silencing charm back up. "So, this one has made a plan," he says jerking his head towards me. Note to self-make Harry pay for what he just said. "She believes that Hermione likes Draco and vice versa, so she believes that if we leave them alone long enough they will admit their feeling toward each other." Uggh, why does he always make my plans sound stupid. New note to self-make Harry pay for what he did and for making my plan sound stupid.
"Harry, you just made my idea sound stupid, which it isn't. What I said was I think Hermione likes Draco and vice versa, so if they spend more time together, then their feelings will grow for each other." I explain my plan, making it sound less stupid, then when Harry explained it.
"I think it's a great plan, whether you say it, or Harry does, Gin." Luna chirps in brightly. I roll my eyes
"Whatever, we'll make sure they spend as much time as possible together, can we just get back to breakfast now." Blaise says. Is food all that every guy ever thinks about.
Hermione's POV
"Okay, is everyone ready to go?" Molly asks looking at the six of us. I nod. "Remember, we're meeting back up at Fred and George's place at six, be there on time." she tells us. One by one we Floo into The Hogshead.
"So do you guys want to meet up at the little place across from Madame Pudifoots' for lunch." I suggest.
"Sure what ever, come on Harry, I have a lot of people to buy presents for." Ginny says pulling Harry out into the cold, and winking at Luna. Sometimes that girl makes me wonder.
"Blaise, I need your help buying something for my step-mum, she's Italian, just like you." Luna says pulling Blaise out with her.
"Okay… that was kinda weird, so it's just me and you now Draco do you want to go together or alone." I ask, hoping the nervousness in my voice wasn't obvious. Yes, I'm nervous about spending a day alone with Draco.
"Let's go together." He decides after a minute.
A/N: So what do you think, I know Hermione's slightly OOC in Draco's dream but whatever, it's his dream (Yeah, I know it's really cheesy and cliche). PLEASE REVIEW, I ABSOLUTELY LOVE READING THEM - SEE IT'S EVEN TYPED IN CAPITALS LOL :)
