Just another chapter for you

:) Enjoy!

The day soon came when Draco and Hermione had to return to school. On the 5th of January, Hermione and Draco said goodbye to their parents and got onto the Hogwarts express. As they were both heads they had their own train compartment.

Draco sat down and Hermione snuggled into the side of him.

'I don't want to go back to school.' Hermione said.

'Hermione Granger doesn't want to go back to school!' Draco said laughing. 'Why?'

'Over this Christmas Holiday so much has changed; I feel that we've grown up so much and schools seems like we're so much older.' She said.

'I know but we only have about five months left.' He said.

'Mmm.' she said as she laid down with her head in his lap.

Most of the journey Hermione slept while Draco sat and watched her while stroking her hair and thinking about Paige.

They arrived at Hogwarts at 5pm and went straight to the heads rooms. Hermione walked into her room and saw a pink bunny which was Paige's on her bed. She walked towards it and picked it up and held it to her chest. Tears started falling down her face as she held the bunny to her chest.

'Hermione.' Draco said as he walked into her room.

Hermione turned around and looked at Draco with tears falling down her face. 'I miss her.' She said as she started to sob.

Draco moved towards Hermione and held her to his chest and kissed her head. 'I know and I do too.' He said.

Draco sat Hermione down on her bed and sat next to her and held her while she cried. Hermione had been emotional these past few days and he put it down to PMS.

After Dinner, Hermione went down to the Gryffindor tower. She needed to see Harry and Ginny and Ron if he would talk to her. As soon as she walked in she was ambushed my Ginny.

'Oh I've missed you Hermione.' She said as she hugged Hermione. 'Christmas wasn't the same without you.'

'I missed you too Ginny. How was your Christmas?' she asked as they walked to the sofa.

'It was great. Charlie and Bill came home so everyone was at Christmas...well except you.' She said. 'Where's Paige? Is Malfoy watching her?'

'No...She's gone Ginny. She went on Boxing Day back to her time.' She said.

'Oh Hermione.' Ginny said as she looked at Hermione. 'I'm sure you'll see her soon enough.'

'Yeah it's just weird not having her here.' Hermione said.

'Hermione!' Harry said as he walked down the stairs. 'How are you?'

'I'm good. How are you? Did you have a good Christmas?' She asked.

'Yeah it was great! Did you have a good Christmas?' he asked as he sat down.

'Yeah. It was really nice. I spent some time with my parents as well so that was good.' Hermione said,

'So what's happening between you and Malfoy?' Ginny asked

'Yeah. What is happening between you and Malfoy Mione?' Ron said as he stood on the stairs glaring at Hermione.

'Ron!' Hermione said as she turned around.

'So...' he asked again.

'We're together Ron and we're going to be for a very long time. You're going to have to accept that.' She said. 'Please Ron; I don't want to lose you as a friend.'

'How can you after all he's done to you.' Ron said.

'It's the past.' She said. 'I love Draco, I always will.'

Ron looked at Hermione and nodded then walked out of the Gryffindor tower.

'He just needs time Hermione.' Harry said. 'I should go after him.' Harry said as he got up and went after Ron.

'He loves you, you know. Ron...I mean. He told us at Christmas.' Ginny said. 'I dreamt of us being sister in laws, of you having my nieces and nephews but I suppose it wasn't meant to be.'

'Ginny, I only ever seen Ron as a friend. Sure once I thought maybe we should try it but...he's not meant for me like Draco is.' She said

'I know.' Ginny said. 'You need someone smart.'

Hermione only laughed and smiled. 'Someone who can argue with me when I'm wrong.' She said.

'Exactly.' Ginny said. 'So I think it's time you introduced us properly to Draco Malfoy, your intended.' She said smirking.

After spending the evening with Ginny, Hermione finished her rounds and then returned to the Heads rooms. It was nearing midnight and Hermione walked up to Draco's bedroom. As she opened the door she saw he was asleep naked in his bed.

Hermione started undressing and put her clothes on the chair next to the bed and then got into bed next to him in only her underwear.

'Hermione?' he asked.

'Sorry I'm late, I was with Ginny.' She said

'It's okay.' He said as he pulled Hermione to him. 'Did you see Weasley?'

'Yeah, I told him about us and he...he's not happy. He told Harry and Ginny at Christmas that he loved me.' She told him.

Draco's arms tightened around her and kissed her head. Hermione snuggled her head into his chest and smiled.

'I love you though.' She said as she looked up at him.

'That's right and only me. Hermione I swear if Weasley tries anything I'll kill him.' He said 7

'No you won't' she said. 'Promise me Draco you won't do anything stupid.'

'I can't promise that Hermione.' He said seriously.

Hermione leaned forward and kissed him. 'Please try.'

The first month at Hogwarts went quickly. Hermione split her time between Draco and her friends and so did Draco.

Ginny and Harry sometimes came to Draco and Hermione's rooms and they hung out with each other. Ron still wasn't talking to Hermione and started to stay away from Harry and Ginny as well which upset Harry.

Draco and Hermione spent most of the time in their rooms studying or having 'us' time as they called it.

It was Sunday the 30th January and Hermione and Draco had spent most of their time in bed together resting.

'When's your next match?' Hermione asked

'Saturday.' He said as he stretched out. 'And I'm getting you a green scarf for the match.'

'No way! I will be wearing my red scarf and cheering on Gryffindor.' She argued. 'Even though you are a Slytherin and I love you, I still want Gryffindor to win.'

'How nice of you to be the supporting wife.' He said.

'Wife? I'm not your wife Draco.' She said.

'You will be one day.' He said. 'One day very soon.'

'How soon?' She asked.

'Before the year ends.' He said smiling.

'Really?' She asked

'Hermione Jean Granger, I intended to have a ring on your finger by Christmas.' He said.

'Oh.' She said smiling. 'I like the sound of that.'

'Good.' He said as he pulled her down to kiss him.
