Real quick, thanks to A. S. Malfoy - Unlogged, SlytherinPrincess1314, Sunburn of Darkness, AnialaEvangeline, DRAMIONExTIVAxFAN, and Kimm Possible!

And to "esther": she's in denial. After all, a girlfriend should trust her boyfriend. And a wimp? Really? What do you mean by that?

Anyway, I wanted to apologize for the late update! School's started for me, so I'm afraid my updates may be less frequent...but I'll still try to update once a week!

Also, thank you all so much for your support! I've gotten over 100 reviews in 3 chapters? For real? You guys are amazing.

Also, I think I'll stop replying to reviews...I don't think you guys really care, but I guess I might as well tell ya?

One last note! Some of you might've read my fic "Sparks Fly"? Well, the amazing KayDee-DesignerExtraordinaire made a Dramione music video for me! It's called "Ship It Or Die-Dramione Edition". The link is: http: / www. youtube .com / watch?v=z-RhumtsOKU without spaces, or you can go to my profile and click on the link directly. Please watch it!

Anyway, without further delay, here is the fourth chapter!

Hermione POV

"Malfoy! Come on! We've got Astronomy!" I called, pounding on his bathroom door.

It was a new day, and it wasn't starting off well. I woke up with a horrible headache.

"Calm down, Granger." said Draco, irritably. The door opened, and a shirtless Draco who was drying the last bit of water out of his blonde hair.

I immediately turned around and blushed. "PUT A SHIRT ON!" I demanded.

"Why?" he asked, with a hint of amusement in his voice. I heard him shuffling towards me, and he hugged me from the back. "What's wrong, Hermione?"

"Augh!" I yelped. My face was getting redder by the minute. "Malfoy! Get off of me!"

"I'm charging." he sighed. "And don't act like you dislike this. I can feel your emotions."

"As if! This is disgusting! Let go of me!" I scowled. Truth-be-told...he was right. No one could deny that Malfoy was definitely attractive. But it didn't mean his personality was.

He eventually released me, and shuffled to his closet, pulling out his shirt, tie, and robe.

He quickly got dressed and turned around and glared at me. "A little creepy, aren't you, Granger?" he asked, with a disgusted sort of look on his face. "You're just standing there watching me get dressed?"

I was about to retort, but I decided against it. He was mood swinging.

"Come on, Malfoy." I grumbled.

We headed up to the Astronomy tower. People kept staring at us as we walked down the hall. Some were amused glances, others weren't as much.

"There are people glaring at you, Malfoy." I murmured.

"They aren't glaring at me," chuckled Draco, "They're staring at you."

"Why?" I asked, skeptic.

"I'm assuming they're part of the 'Draco Abraxas Malfoy fanclub'?" mused Draco.

"What? As if." I glared. "You're so conceited."

"It's a real club." he insisted.

"The D. A. M.s?" I asked, disgusted. He nodded. "Hey, Malfoy, did you know your initials sound like 'damn'?"

"I am aware." smirked Draco. "Your point?"

"It probably is because everyone says 'damn, he's annoying'." I smirked, trying to imitate his.

"Actually, it probably means 'damn, he's hot'." challenged Draco.

"You're so vain." I scoffed, rolling my eyes.

We entered the Astronomy tower, and my headache got worse.

"Are you ok, Granger?" muttered Draco, in a low voice.

"I'm fine." I smiled.

Draco just looked at me, as if he was trying to read my mind. I just ignored him and stepped out towards the window to try to get a breath of fresh air. Maybe that'd cure my headache.

I closed my eyes and inhaled.

Suddenly, I heard a scream, something bump into me, and the next thing I knew, I was falling. I let out a scream, and as I did, my vision went black.

Sorry Draco. I guess I can't save you now.

My eyes opened slowly. Was this...heaven? I wasn't sure.

My headache was gone, and the room was bright and white. It must be heaven. But...what was the weird smell?

"Funny. Why does heaven smell like cough syrup?" I murmured.

"Because, you idiot, this isn't heaven." said a soft but relieved voice. I turned my head to see my redheaded best friend.

"Ginny. You died?" I asked.

"No, you dolt. We're in the hospital wing." she laughed.

I sat up. My stomach was a little bit sore, but other than I seemed to be fine.

"But...I fell from the Astronomy tower. I didn't save myself." I said, confused.

"Malfoy did." she chuckled. "He dove off the building after you."

"Is he dead?" I inquired.

"Not quite." she smirked. Suddenly, the door to the hospital wing opened, and what rushed into the room took away my breath...because I was laughing too hard.

The one and only Draco Malfoy came into the room without a shirt, and two gigantic white wings attached to the area between his shoulder blades.

"AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!" I cried. Tears were coming from my eyes, and my stomach was hurting even worse. But I couldn't help it. He looked so awkward.

"Oh, shut up, Hermione." he muttered, his cheeks slightly red.

"You...you...look...like...a...fairy!" I managed, between laughs.

He was clearly irritated, so with one flap of his wings, I was blown from my bed onto the ground.

"Quit that! I freaking saved you!" he snarled, irritated.

"When'd you get wings?" I asked.

"A few seconds after I dove off the Astronomy tower." he shrugged.

"You dove off trying to save me? How were you going to get to safety without dying? Did you think your plan through?" I asked.

"Of course not. It was instinct." he stated, as if it was obvious.

I didn't know how to respond, so I settled with "well, thanks then. How'd I fall off?"

"You were shoved off." said Ginny, her face serious.

"By?" I asked.

"Pansy." growled Draco. "She claims it was an accident, but thats bullshit, obviously."

"Then again, Daphne Greengrass did bump into Pansy, who bumped into you, which might be why." said Ginny.

"Either way, they're both serving a weeks worth of detention." fumed Draco.

I sighed. "What period is it?" I asked, getting up. "We'd better get to class."

"This is my free period and you and Malfoy have been excused from class today." explained Ginny.

"In that case, I'd better head back up to my room to work on my Potions essay." I sighed.

"I'm coming with you." said Draco, with an expression that told me that no matter what I said, he'd come with me.

"Can you put on a shirt then?" I mused. He sighed.

"Madam Pomfrey is having wing holes made in my clothes for me. Until I can control them, at least." he sighed. "I don't want these wings right now. Wings down."

And just like that, his wings disappeared.

"Hey. It worked." I said, surprised.

"Wha...Wings up." they reappeared.

"Wings down. Wings up. Wings down. Wings up. Wings down. Wing-" he said, continuously making his wings appear and disappear.

"Quit that." I ordered, and he just smiled at me.

"Anything for you." he smiled.

"Whoa. He just went from pissed to amazed to sweet. What the hell?" stared Ginny.

"Veelas have mood swings. He's like a 13 year old girl." I chuckled.

"Shut it, Hermione." he said, annoyed.

"By the way, Hermione," said Ginny, "About Ron."

"I'm not going to forgive that bastard." I said, firmly.

"I know. He doesn't." she said. And with one last look, she headed out of the hospital wing.

"Come on, Granger." said Draco, buttoning up his shirt that Madam Pomfrey had brought for him.

A little after we were out of the Hospital Wing, Draco stopped.

"Oh! Shit, I left my tie in there. Be right back." he said, and he ran back down the hall.

"Hey Granger." said a voice. I turned around to see the one and only, Cormac McLaggen.

"McLaggen." I said, awkwardly. His smile bugged me.

"Heard you broke up with Weasley. About time, eh?" he smirked.

"Yes." I agreed. He took a step closer to me.

"Well maybe you'd be interested in another, better looking Gryffindor?" he smirked, trapping me against the wall.

"Better looking? Puhlease, Cormac. You're a scumbag." I replied, trying to walk away.

"Come on, Granger. Lighten up." he smiled, and he started leaning towards me.

Then he was pulled back. "Augh!" he exclaimed.

"GET YOUR FILTHY HANDS OFF OF MY GIRLFRIEND!" snarled Draco. I breathed a sigh of relief.

Draco slammed McLaggen against a wall, slightly choking him.

"Malfoy! You need to let go of him!" I shouted. McLaggen was turning slightly blue. Draco ignored me.

"Draco!" I shouted. Then, he immediately let go. Cormac fell to the ground, took a huge breath and rubbed his throat.

"Stay away from her." hissed Draco, and he took my hand and pulled me down the hall.

"Girlfriend?" I asked, amused. "I don't recall agreeing to be."

"We're as good as." he grinned.

I rolled my eyes and smiled. Draco wasn't as bad as I thought.

We headed back to our room. Draco immediately yawned.

"I'm going to take a nap." he declared. He walked into his bedroom, and slammed the door shut.

A couple seconds later, I stood up and quietly walked over to his door. I opened it, and took a look inside. Draco was Lying on his bed, fast asleep.

I chuckled. Even the dragon looked cute when he was sleeping.

"Hermione." said a voice behind me, startling me.

"Augh!" I exclaimed.

The one and only Ronald Bastard Weasley was standing behind me.

"HOW THE HELL DID YOU GET IN?" I screamed.

"The door was open." He said, pointing to the door, that was indeed wide open.

I scowled. "What do you want?" I snarled.

"To apologize." he said, with hopeful eyes. "Hermione, I was so stupid. I'm sorry! You're a thousand times better than Lavender. Please, can we try again?"

My eyes softened. "Oh, Ronald. You filthy, disgusting, lying, cheating, stupid, bag of dirt!" I yelled, hitting him everytime I said a word.

"Ow!" he exclaimed.

"I trusted you! Everyone told me that you were cheating on me, but I didn't believe them! I had faith in you!" I screamed. "But they were all right. Don't think you'll ever be forgiven. You know you don't want me. Don't pretend that you like me more than Lavender."

"You can't seriously be saying you'd rather have that bloody ferret!" he shouted.

"I would! He treats me well! Unlike you!" I shouted. I slapped him and then punched him in the stomach. He howled in pain.

"It's way too late to apologize." I glared.

He just walked out, and I collapsed onto the ground, crying. I felt relieved, that I had gotten it out, and that I had broken up with him for good, but a part of me that loved him for 7 years was still aching.

Two strong arms pulled me into a hug.

"Don't cry, Granger. What is with you? Don't tell me you still like him." whispered Draco.

"I don't." I replied, wiping the tears from my eyes. "It's just...the part of me that is still attached to him."

"He doesn't deserve you." cooed Draco. He lightly kissed my cheek. "I do."

I hit his arm. "Way to spoil the moment." I grinned.

He laughed. "I apologize, your highness."

I chuckled, and kissed his cheek.

"I'll tell you what, Draco, I'll give us a try. If you end up like that idiot of a guy I used to like, this is your last month." I smiled.

"I won't. I'm a thousand times better than that weasel." he smirked. "Much sexier, too."

"You're so conceited."

"You know it's true." he said, in a sing-songy voice.

"You're an idiot."

"I'm sexy."

"No."

"Yes."

"You know what? This is a stupid conversation."

"You admit it!"

"Shut up!"

Draco Malfoy, you are something else.

A/N: I know...I'm rushing.
