A/N: Drabble a day challenge, and for Windwinder! Thank you for the lovely review, darlin' :)
Birthday
"Shh, I hear her. Everyone hide," Ginny said as she heard footsteps approaching outside the corridor. She knew Hermione never liked everyone making a fuss of her on her birthdays, but Ginny still couldn't resist organising a surprise party.
"Nox," she whispered, and the lights were extinguished.
A moment later a key rattled in the lock. When the door opened everyone jumped up and yelled "SURPRISE!" at the top of their lungs.
Everyone's faces dropped when they realised Hermione wasn't alone. She and Draco Malfoy were entangled in one another and had just broken apart from what appeared to have been a rather heated snogging session.
Draco surreptitiously removed his hand from Hermione's backside and she turned a beet red as she saw the bewildered faces of all of her loved ones, which included the entire Weasley family. Only then did both of them realise that they hadn't told anyone they were a couple.
"Err… surprise!" Hermione laughed weakly to the room of stunned people.
A/N: So with any luck the first chapter of my next multi-chap should be up by Thursday (basically 4 days time for those of you not in BST timezones) :)
