A/n ok this is the chapter you all have been waiting for- The kiss!!! Im not going to say anything more, read on!!

A few seconds after Ron and Hermione had sat down, the door flew open. It was Draco. Hermione flushed a deep red and lowered her eyes. He just stared at her as he walked by, his eyes questioning. He very subtly dropped a crumpled scrap of parchment near her feet, and continued to his seat. Hermione pretended to drop her quill on the floor and picked up the crumpled paper. She began to read it when-

BANG!!! Professor Snape flew in, his robes billowing about him. "Today," he announced with a sneer. "You will begin researching a potion, and later you will create and test said potion. Groups: Potter and Goyle, Weasly and Parkinson." he rambled on until finally, "Granger and Malfoy." He held out his hand and a small cauldron filled with folded scraps of paper appearred in it. "Pick your potion." Each group walked up and drew a scrap, reading what it said. Hermione reached her hand in the cauldron and picked a scrap. She unfolded it and gasped.

"Truth potion?" Draco half questioned, half stated.

'Hmm, maybe now I can ask him how he feels about me and have that be the end of it.' She thought, inwardly grinning.

"Class is over!" snape boomed, interupting Hermiones thoughts. "Get out!" they all scrambled to get their things and leave as quick as possible.

Hermione was halfway through arithmacy when she remembered Draco's note. It read:

-Hermione- I need to talk to you. Meet me in the library after this next period. I know you have it free so don't make excuses.

It wasn't signed, but she new it was indeed from Draco, as there was a small picture of a dragon sketched where the name would usually be printed.

'Next period. Ok. He called me Hermione?!? That's a first!' her thoughts were jumbled and confused, and it took all her efforts to try and pay attention to what her proffesor was saying. The rest of the class flew by, and she gathered her things to go to the library. 'Time to meet Draco. Wait, since when do I call him Draco?' "This is so crazy." she mumbled.

Entering the library, she walked past a row of tall bookshelves, wondering where he could be. Suddenly she was pulled between a row of bookshelves. She stumbled, and fell against something solid, or rather, someone.

Draco was surprised that she fell, and instinctivly put his arms around her to steady her. "Hello," he murmered in her ear.

She spun in his arms and exclaimed, "Draco!"

He smiled at her use of his first name. "Hermione," He replied calmly.

She looked up into his blue eyes, and saw he was smiling at her. It wasn't a smirk, or even a mean smile, it was just that. A smile. She suddenly realized she was terribly close to him, that she was encircled with his arms, and that she didn't want to leave them. In her mind, alarms and warning signals were going off. She knew that everything about this was wrong, the scene, the person, and her feelings for that person. But in her heart it felt right. She had never had that feeling before, not with anyone, not with Ron, not even with Harry. And as she gazed into his eyes, and he gazed into hers, she was overwhelmed with the realization that she was truly in love, for the first time in her life. And she knew that the only thing she wanted to do was kiss him. And to her utmost delight, he leaned in and very softly pressed his lips against hers. She parted her lips in surprise, and his tongue licked her bottom lip, and started to explore the warm crevices in her mouth. She leaned in, wanting more, wanting it to last forever. Her hand moved from the back of his neck to weave itself in his silky hair, bulling him closer. Sooner or later they had to part for air.

"That," she gasped. "Was amazing."

"Thanks." He said grinning wryly.

"I have some questions for you before I lose all my senses. Basically, what is going on?"

"This might take a while. Would you care to sit?" He motioned to a vacant table in the corner. "I'm going to tell you everything. My past, how I feel about you, and mostly try to answer your questions. Are you ready to hear it? Moreover, are you willing? You'll be in danger if my father ever finds out all that you know. Are you willing to risk that?"

She gulped, every sensible nerve in her body screaming 'No, he isn't the one, don't do this!!! Just walk away and forget it ever happened!! You don't have to go through this!' All she said was, "Yes."

He sighed in releif, glad his feelings for her were returned. She had followed her heart, and now it was his job to not break it.
