Chapter 5- The first kiss
Hermione stared shockingly at the high wall in front of them
Malfoy stood there calmly not surprised at all. "It's maze, like the one from the Triwizard." He explained.
"Well, of course, now let's go in." Hermione said excitedly. She was always ready for challenge and work.
------------------------------
It had been about 1 day and still, they were stuck in that place. Everywhere seemed to be a dead end! Hermione tried almost everything she could think of, but none worked. Her quill could not write on that ground for some reason, the walls were too solid and they could not climb over them at all.
They turned this way and that, but they were surrounded by brick walls all around. Right...left...right...dead end... right... left...left...left...right... It became boring!

Night began to fall as the prepared another camp out. "I am getting sick of this.' Hermione spoke to herself. As she got some food from her bag, she noticed something unique that she had forgotten about. It was the string and needle! "This is PERFECT!" She screamed in excitement.
"I got it Malfoy!" She told him.
"What is it? Hah! You think some string can help us? I think not." Malfoy responded.
"I'm sure it will, just like how Theseus escaped the labyrinth." She said cleverly.
Malfoy was confused. He had obviously not paid attention to his muggle studies class. "If this doesn't work, Hermione, then see what I can do." Malfoy said smartly.
Hermione was surprised. 'He called me Hermione?!?!? He called me Hermione!' This was a miracle! Perhaps she had proven herself to him enough for him to gain respect for her. She seemed quite happy at what she had done. A day ago, he was calling her a 'midblood' and 'Granger' and now, he finally called her 'Hermione'! Her real name. Hermione couldn't stop thinking about it.

Finally, The passed the maze. They could see the exit just up ahead. "We made it!" Hermione said in joy.
Malfoy smirked, but said nothing.
Hermione turned to him and began to say. "It's getting late, so I guess-"
Suddenly, Malfoy placed his lips towards her. Hermione, compressed to the wall as he kissed her hard. They gazed deeply into each other's eyes.
It felt nice...
It actually felt nice...

But at the thought of Malfoy, she backed away. They immediately stopped and said nothing for a few minutes. Malfoy stared at Hermione as she tried to avoid his eyes. "Tent?" Hermione mumbled, without facing him.
