Chapter 7- GET OUT OF MY HEAD!
~*~ Hi everyone. Okay I am really, really sorry it has been so long but after next week I have two weeks of holidays and so you can expect quite a few chapters to come speeding out then. Please forgive me but I have been really busy at school. I actually don't like this chapter very much because to me it seems too rushed but after reading through it again and again I can't see any way of fixing it so please bear with it. This chapter is somewhat um... risqué so brace yourself for some sexual references. In this chapter I introduce a new sort of plot line so I hope it makes a little sense. Well I must stop babbling. Oh one last thing I have added a preview on to the end of the chapter…please read!
Disclaimer: I'm actually still waiting for a reply to my request to own the whole Harry Potter franchise so until then be rest assured it is not mine.

Ron and Hermione scoured the castle for a good hour and a half but there was still no sign of Harry. Hermione was beginning to worry but Ron insisted that he was probably just doing some flying practice or something. Rounding yet another corner they came face to face with Madam Pomfrey who looked positively beside herself with worry.
"Miss Granger there you are!" she panted in obvious agitation.
"Yes, well spotted." Ron murmured under his breath and Hermione elbowed him gently in the side.
"What's wrong, Madam Pomfrey." She asked courteously. The older witch's shoulders straightened and she seemed to gain some of her composure.
"You must come with me at once."
"Wh…" Hermione began but Madam Pomfrey had already grabbed her arm and was pulling her along the corridor behind her. Ron stood staring after them for a minute before starting to jog after them.
"Bonkers," he muttered as he ran, "completely bonkers the lot of them."
***
As Hermione ran she realised where they were going. The hospital wing, 'I seem to be no where else these days!' and as she approached the door way she heard some very familiar sounds. Wrenching free from the lagging Madam Pomfrey Hermione ran forward and burst into the infirmary. The scene was exactly the same; Malfoy was holding the struggling Jonathon down while he snarled and snapped.
"Do something!" Malfoy yelled as he saw Hermione. She hurried over but halted as she saw Pansy sitting in the chair by Malfoy's bed crying. Malfoy saw her hesitate and yelled again, "Hermione, ignore her I need help!"
"Oh, of course." She reached the bed and, as it had happened before, as soon as she touched Jonathon he calmed down and stared up into her eyes. "Um," Hermione whispered, "the potion please." The medi-witch passed it to her and she tipped it down his throat. After struggling for a few more moments he quieted down and Hermione stood up and walked around to the side of the bed Malfoy was on.
"What's up with him?" she asked staring down at Jonathon's now peaceful face.
"Don't know." The Slytherin replied softly.
They were standing very close now and Malfoy couldn't help but admire her smooth neck and the way her black top accented her curves.
"Hermione!" Ron's voice broke the quiet and they spun around to face him.
"Draco." Pansy's whiny voice called from her chair.
With a sigh they drifted apart, Hermione to Ron, Malfoy to Pansy.
Hermione glanced back at Malfoy as he whispered something into Pansy's ear. For some peculiar reason she felt a pang of sadness.
'Bye Draco' Hermione thought as she headed towards the door with her red headed friend.
'See you, Hermione.' Malfoy's voice echoed inside her head. She started and spun around to face Malfoy who looked at her with a smirk lifting the corners of his mouth.
"What's up Granger?" he asked mockingly.
"Nothing." She whispered still staring intently at him.
Come on 'Mione let's go." Ron curled his arm around her waist and tried to pull her away but she stood rooted to the spot still watching the Slytherin boy trying to figure out if the voice inside her head had been her imagination. Eventually she broke eye contact and allowed Ron to steer her towards the door. But then suddenly…
'Hermione' his cold mocking voice was back. She turned her head sharply and saw him give her a small almost imperceptible nod, 'that's right Hermione I can mind talk. I have a feeling these Christmas holidays are going to be fun…'
'This is a violation Malfoy. GET OUT OF MY HEAD!'
'Oh but didn't you know? You have to be invited to mind speak so even if you didn't realise it, you invited me mudblood and I can wander into your pretty little head whenever I feel like it.'
Hermione inwardly groaned. Malfoy chuckled and then withdrew contact.
"Let's go Ron I've had enough of the company in here."

Ron stepped out of the shower, wrapped a towel around his waist and searched for a shirt. He searched and searched but he couldn't find a single clean one, so with a shrug Ron pulled on his trousers and wandered down to the common room to seek out Harry and ask if he had seen any clean shirts recently. But Harry wasn't in the common room and so, grumbling to himself, Ron pulled his robe back on over his bare chest and decided to go down to the kitchens and ask the house elves if they had his shirts. Stepping out of the portrait hole he tripped straight over...
"Pansy?"
"Ron." She whispered in a sultry voice reaching up and running one of her fingers down his neck. He stepped back so quickly that his back smacked against the wall and, winded, he slid down it to the floor. Pansy smiled down at him and, sashaying over to him with pronounced hip movements, straddled his legs and leant forward until their noses were almost touching.
"I've been waiting to do this for a long time." She purred in his ear before fiercely pulling his head towards her and smashing her lips against his in a passionate kiss. Her hands wandered down to his chest and pulled back his robe. She moaned into his mouth as she ran her hands over his stomach and leaned forward so her breasts were crushed against him. Ron shivered slightly as her hands travelled down to the waist band of his trousers…
"Realistic isn't it?" a cold voice echoed around Ron and Pansy. "But don't you think you should save this sort of thing for your mudblood girlfriend?" and with a pop Pansy disappeared and instead Hermione appeared wearing a pale pink satin nightie which was very low cut and had a very high hem line. Ron jumped up spilling Hermione off his lap and onto the floor where she sat looking up at him and pouting in a sexy sort of way. Ron ran his fingers through his hair, worriedly, and shouted.
"I don't know how you're doing this Malfoy but you stop it right now!"
"Oh but this is fun." Draco's mocking voice rang out.
Ron knew a way to get Malfoy to leave him alone but he was loathe to use it because it disgusted him to even think about. However desperate times call for desperate measures and even now Hermione was getting to her feet and the night dress was riding up…
"I didn't know you fantasised about me Malfoy!" he yelled quickly feeling like he wanted to throw up at his words. Malfoy obviously felt the same as there was a soft revolted noise and Ron woke up in his four poster, sweating and angry enough to kill.
***
At the same time on the other side of the Gryffindor quarters…
Hermione woke with a start from a dream, no not a dream, a nightmare! She had been lying across the front of a broom stick and Malfoy was behind her with his hands wrapped around her waist. Soft romantic music played in the background, the sun was shining the birds were singing there was a picnic basket hanging from one of her hands. Suddenly Hermione had turned to Malfoy and whispered:
"I love you snookums." Into his ear
"Yes MY mudblood, what would you like to do when we get back to the castle?"
"Well, I would love to wash your socks."
"You did that yesterday. How about you iron them and then you can give Crabbe and Goyle a bath."
"Oh really? Thankyou so much, you beautiful sexy Slytherin."
"That's alright mudblood just don't forget to wash behind their ears."
"AAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH"
Hermione screamed as the details came rushing back to her.
"Malfoy you have gone too far this time!"

In the hospital wing a Slytherin smiled and tucked the Mind Invader 600 his father had sent him under his pillow. He was expecting a visit from two extremely angry Gryffindors very soon…

Strange? Yes! But that was so much fun to write! Please don't flame me about it okay? They were dreams! Dreams that twisted little Malfoy created to mess with his enemies minds. However do not despair somewhere along the line there will be romance! My thankyous are…
Slithering-Slytherin: it is so great that you like my story and I'm very sorry for not updating sooner. I really like your username by the way, a sort of tongue twister! Thankyou for reviewing.
Moony's Nymph: Hmmm you need more?! That's fantastic, unfortunately you did have to wait quite a long time for this chapter so I hope you haven't done anything mad in the meantime waiting for it! Thankyou so much for reviewing.
Liberty: You love it? Aw thankyou so much! Yet again I apologise for taking so long but it is here now…obviously! No need to thank me! I thank you!
Fawkes: Hey, how you doing? I'm glad you emailed me and your review was so nice. I can't believe the similarities between us and all the guys we both like! I love to personally thank everyone who reviews because if they took the time I should return the favour. Also I like thanking them so they know how much it is appreciated and if they ask questions I can answer them! Thankyou!
~*~: Hmm, your username is the same as my authors notes sign! Thankyou for reviewing. I'm trying to get them to stay in character and that is why Ron is how he is and that there is chemistry between him and Hermione. Thankyou so much for noticing and reviewing!
MordsithGoddess: The bomb? He he he, I love that expression! You must hate me as even after you put in three pleases and nearly died I took simply ages to get this chapter up. I'm really sorry! Your review was so, so, so good and it made me feel so happy that someone liked my story so much! Thankyou for that and I hope you aren't dead! (can dead people review?)
Bob: That is so nice of you to say. The PB quote was when the house elves were under the table and Pansy said: "By the way house elves the reason I came down here was to tell you that my mirror is filthy, I want to see my face shining in it by morning."
"As you wish.* A tiny voice squeaked from underneath a table where the elves had all hidden when Pansy had entered the kitchens. That is what the star refers to. In the PB Buttercup says:
"Farmboy, polish my saddle. I want to see my face shining in it by morning." Then good old Westley says
"As you wish."
Sorry if it was a little confusing. Thankyou for reviewing.
Bob, the ruler of the universe: Do you really think he is staying in character? Thankyou so much for saying so. I've been desperately trying because I realise that in my other story he is so wrong! Fluffy is when something is sickeningly sweet and romantic in a story. There is no need to apologise. When I first found FF.net I couldn't understand half the jargon!
Waiting: Yeah I think the fight between Draco and Ron is coming up very, very soon. (*hint, hint, nudge, nudge*) Thankyou for continually reviewing and I'm sorry it has taken me so long…I guess you have lived up to your namesake!
Glimmermaid: I totally agree, but not about the Ron staying away part. He is needed for the fights! Thankyou so much for reviewing!
Gaille: Happy and giddy is a good way to be! Thankyou for always reviewing it gives me an ego boost as they are always so lovely and encouraging. (I wonder how many times I have told you that!)
Sailor Earth: okay so Draco has done something to Pansy but you won't find out yet… intrigued? I don't think she will join all the people in the hospital wing…after all nearly half the schools Christmas population is in there already! Thankyou for reviewing and I hope you think Draco has stayed mean enough in this chapter.
Calypso in Love: has Moomoo got big muscles? If so then I guess this monkey will be sporting a few bruises soon. I took so long to get this up that I bet it (is Moomoo a girl or a boy or an it?!) was cracking its knuckles and flexing its biceps in anticipation. Thankyou for reviewing and threats are always guaranteed to get me to write faster. BTW could Moomoo please leave my hands alone so I can type? Thankyou.
Alexiana: Thankyou so much for saying so and I will continue!
Flaky Ballerina: I don't know about great but thankyou anyway. I think later in my story Malfoy will be making her cry not the opposite! Thankyou for your encouragement on this story…much appreciated!
Thecool1: Original and clever? Wow that is so nice of you to say! I'm always worrying that my story is too obvious and heaps of people have done it before so you gave me a nice boost of confidence! Unfortunately you did have to wait for the next chapter…quite a while actually! But don't worry, I am properly ashamed.
Anna: you are so right! I saw the movie first but then I knew I had to read the book and I loved it even more then the movie. Now I own the book and the movie and they are definitely my favourites! Hardly anyone has read the book but in my humble opinion I think it is better then the movie. Thankyou so much for your review and rest assured I will add bits of PB wherever I can… I drive my friends and family mad quoting from it! Thankyou again!
And that is it for thankyous. I love all reviews and emails so please keep them coming.
PREVIEW
Ron had been pushed too far. He gripped Malfoy by the throat and threw him up against the wall.
"You will not talk to her, you will not look at her in fact don't even breath in her direction. If you give me one reason to smash your head into that wall don't think I will hesitate. The only explanation why you aren't in the same condition as Neville up there is because Hermione is a better person than I am."
"You didn't need to tell me that Weasley, I already know it!" Malfoy wheezed out.
"Of course you do. Hermione is better than this whole school put together." Ron loosened his grip slightly as Malfoy nodded. "at least we agree on one thing."
"Yes." Malfoy agreed, "I bet we agree on something else too, don't you think Hermione is a good kisser? …I do."
OOOHHHH are you all looking forward to it? I am!
