Chp. 5 The Meeting
"Hermione, why can't you tell me what's wrong? Your very fidgety." Ron asked. "Nothing is wrong, Ron. I was up very late last night studying. Thats all." Hermione said in a end-of-conversation tone. "Oh, you were with Harry then? He was up last night, too." Ron said. Hermione and Harry exchanged quick glances. "How do you know I was up, Ron?" Harry questioned. Hermione thought Draco had told him. Ron responded in a low tone so no one knew Harry was out of bed. "Oh, I saw your bed was empty. I figured you went to the bathroom or something, but now that I know Hermione was up, I'm guessing she was helping you study." Hermione let out a small breath of relief. "Oh. Yeah, I was." She looked at Harry. They knew the only thing they were studying was each others lips. But Ron didn't have to know that.
It was dinner time, and Hermione meeting with Draco was drawing closer with every minute that passed. Since Ron was in a deep discussion with Neville about the next quidditch match, Harry and Hermione decided that this was the perfect moment to figure out what Draco was planning on doing with her. Hermione whispered to Harry. They didn't want anyone knowing about their meeting tonight. "He can't do anything drastic. I mean, he'll probably make me do his homework for a week." Harry thought about this, but realized something. "I don't know Hermione. He sounded pretty serious about it. Maybe he wants more." "What else could he possibly want?" She sounded aggravated. Hermione knew what Harry was thinking Draco wanted, but she didn't want to believe it. Maybe he does want something more, she thought. But who knows. Maybe he is just playing with my head. He does that often. Or maybe he............"HEY! What are you doing?! I've been calling your name." Hermione realized Ron voice was calling her. "Sorry. I was in deep thought." Ron leaned into her and grinned. "Are you thinking of what your gonna do to me tonight?" Hermione was a bit disgusted. What a pervert, she thought. She let out a small, fake chuckle and then lied. "Um, yeah."
It was 10:55 and Hermione was just about to leave when she heard a knock on the door. "Oh no." She thought it was Ron. When she answered it, she started to say, "Ron, I........." But it was Harry. "Hi. I just wanted to give you this before you left." Harry handed Hermione a ball filled with blue dust. "Throw it at him and it will put him to sleep, just in case he tries anything." Hermione was on the verge of tears, half because she was so glad Harry cared for her so much, and half because she was afraid of why she might have to use it. "Thank you, Harry." And without thinking, she threw her arms around him and burst into tears. "I know your scared. I don't know what he'll do, but you can fight it." Harry was very comforting. Harry looked at the clock behind Hermione. It was 10:58. "Alright well, you better get going or else you'll be late." Harry escorted Hermione down to the exit, gave her a kiss, and then she was off.
"Well, Well, Well. Look whos late." Draco was already in the classroom when Hermione got there. "Lay off Draco." She took a big breath. She had ran all the way there and was out of breath and sweating. Draco got off the desk he was sitting on and walked over to her. "Well, Granger, I must say, You look quite good when you sweat." Draco grinned and put his hand on her waist, but Hermione pushed it away. "Back off. I'm not here to be friendly. I'm here to know what you want." Draco let out a small, evil laugh. As much as Hermione didn't want to admit, it sounded quite sexy. "Well, then you ARE here to be friendly." Hermione gave Draco a puzzled look. "What do you mean?" He looked at her. I could get lost in his eyes, she thought. Oh no. I didn't just think that. "Don't let him get to you." She told herself. Draco hadn't heard her and continued on to answer her question. "Oh, Granger. You damn well know what I want." She did. "No. Theres no way......" Draco cut her short. "You want your boyfriend to know about you and Potter?" She shook her head no. "Then I suggest you keep you mouth closed and let me do the talking." She was to frightened to say anything back. "Empty you pockets." He said. "What?" She didn't understand. "Silence! You heard me! Empty them! I know you have things in them." She did as she was told and emptied all of her pockets. She watched as the blue ball rolled out and fell to the ground. She had tried to hide it, but it was too large. "A gift from your lover?" He asked, as he picked up the blue ball. "I would advise him to keep to his own business." Hermione was filled with rage. She was in a classroom, alone, unarmed, with her worst enemy.
"Draco, you best keep away from me or you'll regret it." He walked in front of her and pulled her body close to his. "Will I?" He examined her for a minute. She changed over the summer. She was no longer the skinny beaver she once was. She had curves in all the right places. Her teeth were perfectly straight, unlike before, thanks to her parents, who were dentists. Her hair was not bushy and ugly anymore. It was now wavy and long. Hermione realized what was happening. She didn't want to allow him to take her over, but she couldn't help. She felt his hard stomach against hers. His soft hand touching her cheek. She felt his warm breath on her nose. She wanted him more than anything. No, she thought. It is just your imagination. But before she could think anymore, his lips were on hers. The kiss was rough, but it felt like it was what she wanted her whole life. It sent a long shock though her body, a good shock though. She was so deep in the kiss, she barely realized he had slipped his hand up her blouse. She knew it was wrong, but it felt so right. But then she thought of Harry and how much he was probably worrying about her. She pulled away. Draco was furious. "What are you playing at, Granger?!" She still wanted him, but it was so wrong. "I'm sorry, its just Harry and....." Draco drew her back to him. "But Harry isn't here right now, is he?" She couldn't help it. He wanted her. She wanted him. Draco pulled Hermione back into a deep kiss. That is until………..
