Chapter 21

*WARNING* Chapter contains smut *WARNING*

Hermione was lying on the bed nibbling on some brownies and drinking tea as Draco finished his Transfiguration test. She hoped he got everything right this time, he was taking longer than usual to finish. But then again, he had never performed particularly well in McGonagall's class.

After almost two hours he handed her back the parchment, chewing on his lip. He wanted the reward, but more importantly, though he would never admit that out loud, he wanted to make a good impression on her.

"And?", he asked as she looked at him.

"Congratulations Draco, professor McGonagall would be proud."

He smirked and kissed her, trying to play it cool.

"Speaking of McGonagall", Theo said as he walked in, "I overheard a conversation between the Carrows. It seems Snape has come in contact with McGonagall and they're discussing the conditions of her return to the castle."

"That's wonderful news!", Hermione smiled.

"They also talked about the Weasleys", Theo continued.

"What did they say?", Hermione asked in a tensed voice. Involuntary Draco pulled her closer to him, as if he expected her to run off to the Weasleys any second.

"They're discussing the return of the youngest Weasley to Hogwarts next school year. Apparently Snape promised she could attend school safely if they proved they're not aiding Potter."

"So, Potter could be out there without Weasley?", Vince asked.

"No", Hermione said confidently. She knew her boys. "No way Ron would leave Harry all alone. They'll probably use a deception to 'prove' it, Fred and George are especially good in that kind of stuff."

"I'll try to find out", Theo promised. "I've befriended this sweet Hufflepuff girl who hangs around Longbottom a lot, maybe he knows something."

"Thanks Theo, that's really sweet. I'm going to bed, good luck on your exams tomorrow."

Hermione disappeared behind the bed curtains.

"Be careful befriending people from other houses Theo", Draco warned him.

"It's fine, I'm the nice gay guy, not an evil Death Eater", Theo shrugged.

"Don't you have somewhere to be?", Blaise smirked, eying Hermione's silhouette through the fabric of the curtains.

"Yes, I do. Stop eying her like that", Draco smirked, hitting Blaise to the back of his head.

He walked over and found Hermione sitting on the bed in nothing but his Slytherin tie.

"Ready for your reward?", she asked blushing a little as he looked her up and down.

"More than ready Pet", he answered hoarsely.

"Lay down on your back", she instructed. He did and she cast the silencing charm. He tried to grab her breast, but she slapped his hand away.

"Hands next to your head", she bossed, "And keep them there. Otherwise I'll tie them to the bed."

She saw a flash of fear in his eyes, but he swallowed and complied without protest. She took off his tie and put it in front of his eyes so he couldn't see anymore.

"I want to see you Pet", he demanded.

"Hmm...", she purred in his ear, "Maybe later. Now, don't move..."

Slowly she unbuttoned his shirt, one button at the time. She trailed little kisses across his sternum.

"Tease", he breathed, moaning as she suddenly flicked his nipple.

She unbuttoned his pants and yanked them down his legs. For a moment she stopped to admire his cock, already long and hard in anticipation. His head fell back as her thumb stroked over the tip. Her fingers slid down to the base of his cock and she squeezed it firmly, earning a gasp from his lips. Draco started panting as she moved her hand up and down his shaft.

"Yes Pet", he hissed through his teeth, "Just like that..."

He started to arch upwards, thrusting into her hand, trying to make her move faster. Suddenly she released him completely. His frustrated growl turned into a moan as her mouth engulfed the tip of his cock. She traced the slit with her tongue tentatively. She wrapped her hand around the base and tried to take it in as far as she could.

"Hmm...", Draco moaned, "Do you like that Pet? Do you like sucking my cock?"

Hermione hummed in agreement, making him groan and buck up. Delicious vibrations coursed through his body. She loved the way he responded to her and made it her mission to make him lose control. Hard... For her.

"Fuck", he groaned shortly after, "I'm going to come..."

She sucked a little harder and grabbed his balls. Not disappointing her, he came spurting in her mouth and she swallowed as much as she could.

While he was still catching his breath she pulled the tie off his eyes. When he saw her licking her lips he pulled her down into a searing kiss.

"Your turn", he whispered against her lips.

"Not tonight", she said pushing his hand away, "You have exams tomorrow. Goodnight Love..."

Draco was in a rotten mood as he strolled down the corridor with Vince and Greg next to him. The other students avoided them as much as they could, but Draco still managed to hex a few for good measure. He had a reputation to keep after all.

He'd missed his last few rewards and he really wanted a repeat performance from the last one, if not something better. She'd stepped up her game with every single one. He had only one exam left and Alchemy was the most difficult one of them all.

Suddenly a door to his left opened and Minerva McGonagall stepped outside.

"Mr. Malfoy, please come inside for a moment", she said in a prim voice.

Draco looked over at his friends and motioned for them to wait at a bench a few metres down the corridor. He walked into the office and McGonagall closed the door behind him.

"Sit down Mr. Malfoy", McGonagall said with her icy glare on him. Slowly she crossed the room and sat down behind her desk.

"Is it true you have Miss Granger in your room?", she asked sharply.

"Yes Professor", he answered tensely.

"You kept her away from the invasion?"

"Yes Professor."

"You have an O on your Transfiguration exam."

"I... what?", he asked confused by the sudden change of subject.

"Have a biscuit Mr. Malfoy", she said offering him a tin.

"No thank you Professor", he declined respectfully.

"Listen Mr. Malfoy", she said, never taking her gaze off him. "You were never this good at Transfiguration, so this must be Miss Granger's doing. Since she's willing to tutor you, I suspect you two are on speaking terms."

Draco tried to keep his indifferent look as the thoughts raced through his head.

"You can't take her away from me", he blurted.

Shit, he hadn't meant to say that. Stupid attack of verbal diarrhoea.

"I have a proposition for you Mr. Malfoy", she continued as it he hadn't spoken. "I know Miss Granger probably gives you troubles sometimes."

Draco scoffed, but held his tongue.

"So to make it a bit easier for you to keep her safe, I can grant you something she wants."

"And what would that be?", he sneered.

"I have the ability to let Miss Granger do her exams."

"Why would I allow that?", Draco asked with a blank face.

"I suggest you figure that out quickly", she frowned. "I expect Miss Granger to be here tonight at 7 p.m. to discuss the details. You are dismissed."

"Professor", he greeted while standing up from his chair.

His friends came up to him as he left the office.

"What's going on?", Theo asked. "Vince sent us a message you were speaking to McGonagall."

"She's back yes", Draco answered. "She wanted to discuss my O on Transfiguration."

"An O?", Blaise laughed, "That's great mate! The Dark Lord will be pleased."

"I couldn't care less", Draco scoffed after glancing around if nobody could hear them. "She wants to speak to Hermione."

"I don't know Draco", Theo said, "That's risky."

"Only for me", he answered, "She doesn't suspect you have anything to do with her. I don't know what I'm going to do yet. It's almost time for dinner, let's go to the Great Hall."
