~~~~~*****~~~~~Love~~~~~*****~~~~~

After Ron left Hermione looked at her watch 2:55pm.

"Already!" She said out loud.

"What?" Harry looked up.

"I have to go," Hermione said running out of the hall "See you at dinner time!"

Hermione ran faster than she had ever ran, down to the draw bridge to meet Draco. She looked around frantically as she stood on the bridge.

"Great now he has gone! Trust good old Ron to stuff things up!" Hermione muttered.

"Hey baby!" A voice Hermione used to cringe at now made her smile broadly.

Her heart was full of love and warmth as she turned around. She turned her head but no one was there!

"Down here!" Hermione heard a voice from below her.

She lay on her stomach and hung her head over the edge of the bridge. Her long wavy brown hair dangled down her face as she looked around. She drew her hands up to her face and pulled the hair back out of her eyes. She set her eyes on him at last. He was sitting on the little bit of sand under the bridge. The lake nearly reached his sport shoes as he sat and smiled up at her.

"You're late!" He joked with her trying to make her feel guilty.

Hermione got back on her feet and walked down to her love. She sat next to him. The moment was very tense between them both and they were both speechless.

"So...?" was all Hermione could say.

Draco took her hand in his and moved closer.

At first the made Hermione uncomfortable but soon settled into it. they were shoulder to shoulder looking out to the ripples that the Giant Squid and other such animals made.

"Mione?" Draco had never called her that before and it sounded good to hear him say it.

Hermione turned her head toward him "Yeah?"

He put his warm hand up to her face and brushed a strand of hair out of her eyes, his hand brushed down her cheek and under her chin. He pulled his hand away nervously.

"Are you...like...ready for a proper relationship?" Draco stuttered nervously.

"...Yes...! Course I do!" Hermione replied.

Hermione leant in and so did Draco. Their lips touched each other. He kissed her well glossed lips sweetly then they leant into the kiss and hardened it. Draco placed his hands around her slim lined waste and they lay on the bank together.

They stayed there for over 2hrs, talking about their feelings before they were going out.

At 5:15pm Hermione stood up, she brushed her self down as she had dirt all over her. It had been raining lightly and she was a bit wet as the bridge leaked a bit.

Draco lay still.

"I have to go!" Hermione explained.

"No.....!" Draco moaned.

"Sorry!" Hermione put out her hand and he took it. She wrapped her other hand around his arm and pulled him up to standing position. She wrapped her arms around his broad shoulders and leant in and hugged him tight.

Nervously he wrapped his arms around her bonny back and squeezed her tightly. They lent out of the hug.

"See you babe!" Draco kissed her hand.

"Bye!" Hermione replied.

Draco walked up toward the qudditch pitch, Hermione walked to the castle. Hermione looked over to Draco but he didn't turn around. Hermione walked into the castle and a warmth rushed over her as she felt the warmth of the fires going in the hall. She walked in and dinner was being served. She sat down next to Parvati and helped herself to roast chicken.

"Hey Mione!" Parvati said as Hermione dumped herself down.

"Hi," Hermione replied.

Parvati had never called her Mione either. What was with people lately calling her Mione?! First Draco and now Parvati Hermione didn't know weather she liked it or not!

"Where have you been? I haven't seen you all day. You missed the best activities in the charms room!" Parvati talked as she ate.

"Ummm...I was...I had to do stuff!" Hermione could not think of anything to say.

"Well in charms we got to levitate people's hearts from their body and if it was bright pink they were in love!" Parvati was very excited "It was so cool!"

Hermione wished she could have been there.

"Mine was slightly pink and everyone kept asking me who it was!" She giggled slightly.

"And Ron Weasley's was like hot pink but he got all embarrassed and had a temper tantrum when we asked who he liked!" Parvati explained "I can't believe him sometimes, he acts like he is 5 sometimes and it really bugs me. Like the way he practically ignored Padma in grade 4 at the Yule ball!"

Parvati kept gossiping but Hermione wasn't really listening. She found her self starring at Draco all through dinner.

"Hello? Hermione?" Parvati tapped her shoulder "Did you hear what i just said?"

"No, sorry. What did you say?"

"I said that Ron Weasley is very childish, its as if he can't look after himself!"

"Yeah right!" Hermione agreed. Didn't she know that Hermione was Ron's friend? 'Weird' Hermione thought 'Well atleast she is talking to me, its better than nothing.'

Ron didn't come down to dinner. Hermione really wanted to talk to him about what happened at lunch.

Hermione stood up.

"Are you going?" Parvati asked.

"Yeah, I want to get back to the common room!" Hermione said tucking in her chair.

"Oh great!" Parvati exclaimed "I come with you!"

Parvati talked non stop till they got to the portrait of the fat lady.

"Chocolate Frog!" Hermione said and the fat lady swung open.

Parvati followed her and sat with Lavender.

"Over here Hermione!" She called across the common room.

Hermione looked around for Harry or Ron to save her but they weren't to be seen. She had no choice but to sit with them.

She sat down and listened to them talking happily about Divination. Soon she saw Ron. To her suprise he came right up to her.

Thinking everything was fine between them she said "Want to play chess?"

"No i don't want to do anything with you! I see you have found some new friends! Took you long enough! That means me and Harry won't have to put up with you!" Ron walked off and sat by himself.

Hermione burst into tears and ran to her dormitory.
