A/n: yay for balloons! I got a bunch at school today because the seniors
had a brunch or something. One of them flew out of the window on my ride
home) ^: but, anyways, that was random. Enjoy this next chapter.
*~* "RON! STOP IT!!!" screamed Hermione, trying to pull the red-head off Malfoy but not having much luck. Ron was so enraged that he had abandoned his wand and was trying to fight fist to fist with Malfoy and Hermione was scared he would get hurt. Not that Ron wasn't strong. it was just that Malfoy was stronger.
"Please! You're gonna get in so much trouble!" pleaded Hermione, giving up trying to pull them apart in frustration. Malfoy's lip was bleeding from when he had been tackled and a bruise was swelling on Ron's cheek. People were starting to come out of there compartments. In desperation she shouted "STUPEFY!!" and they both went rigid and fell to the floor.
"Hermione! What is going on?" a bewildered Harry came running towards her, looking incredulously at the stupefied bodies of Ron and Malfoy.
"Um. Ron attacked Malfoy and I couldn't stop them from fighting so." stuttered Hermione, now that she had been pulled out of reality from that kiss she was embarrassed and furious with herself. What had she been thinking? But she did know she hoped to avoid Harry finding out why Ron had attacked Malfoy.
"Ron attacked Malfoy!" said Harry, a look between amusement and concern playing on his face", what made him finally decide to go for it? Was the slimy git insulting his family again?"
"Um. something like that. Listen, I don't want to get in trouble. You take Ron to your compartment but don't wake him up until you get there or he'll go crazy on Malfoy again. I'll take Malfoy into the prefect compartment and meet you in a sec." said Hermione looking anxiously at the crowd starting to form.
Harry nodded and dragged the petrified Ron off shaking his head. Hermione, with some difficulty, managed to drag Malfoy into their compartment and shut the door.
"Innervate," she breathed, wishing she could disappear as he stood up.
For a few moments they just stared at each other, neither knowing quiet what to say. Malfoy was still breathing heavily and looking at Hermione with an unreadable expression that puzzled her, was there emotion on his face?
"Oh, you're bleeding," she said, conjuring up a small towel and rushing forward to hold it to her face but he jerked back as she came close.
"Oh come on, I'm not going to hurt you."
"Don't touch me Granger." He snarled and his mask was back on. He was the same old Malfoy again. Anger flared up in Hermione.
"Sorry, it's not my fault you know. What the hell was that!? Why did you kiss me? I thought I was just a lowly mudblood." she snapped. It wasn't her fault, she hadn't asked for it, but then again she didn't stop it either.
"I know what I want, and at that moment I wanted you," said Malfoy, the arrogance in his voice angering her though he took the towel and wiped his lip.
"And what makes you think I wanted you?" asked Hermione defiantly.
"Please, you didn't exactly stop me," he replied stepping forward and getting too close for comfort again.
"Well. I. was going to," she stammered, frustrated because he was right.
Laughing softly he locked his eyes menacingly in hers and said" oh really?"
Finding herself faced once again with his enchanting eyes Hermione didn't know what to do. There is no way that she could have feelings for Malfoy, but then he had to be so irresistible and she became weak while looking in his eyes.
Panicking she turned and walked quickly from the room without replying. She could almost feel his smirk. Running through the corridor she collapsed and began to cry. Why was this happening? Everything in this year was supposed to be great but she hadn't even gotten to Hogwarts and things were terribly wrong.
