They began to walk towards the Gryffindor dorms. Then yo The Transfiguration classroom. Then down to the Hufflepuff dorm, then to the Defense Against The Dark Arts class room. Next came the Ravenclaw dorm then on the the final dorm and the other class rooms.

"So where do live Scott?" Hermione asked to break the akward silence.

"Around Diagon Ally in London," he said. "My fatehr owns a muggle company there."

"Oooooh," Hermione breathed. "My parents are dentists.

They walked out the front doors, and out onto the grounds. They headed towards Hagrid's hut.

"HAGRID!" Hermione called out loudly after banging on the door.

"I'm Rit' here 'Mione!" Hagrid called from behind the hut.

They walked around to visite him. He was growing pumpkins for halloween which was a month away.

"Hagrid, this is Scott. He is a new Slytherin," she said brightly.

Scott put out his hand and Hagrid grippied it heartily.

"Nice ter meet yer," he said. "Always good to see new students." Scott smiled broadly.

Scott looked around the grounds. He spotted the lake and he decided he wanted to swim.

"C'mon Hermione! Lets go swimming!" he said happily.

Hagrid smiled at the two and winked at Hermione. She blushed. He then busied himself with his pumpkin growing. He was glad to see Hermione with someone other than that Draco.

"But, we have to get our swim suits!" she exclaimed. "Accio swimsuits," she said loudly as she pointed her wand at the castle. Two swimsuits and two towles flew out of an open window. Hermione and Scott rushed into Hagrids hut to change into the suits.

Scott came out in a greenish-silver suit with the Slytherin symbol on them. He carried a green fluffy towel with him.

hermione came out in a beautiful gold and marron two piece bathing suit that dipped down to show some cleavage,it showed all oh her long graceful arms and legs, it also showed her nice, smooth flat stomache.

She carried a fluffy gold and marron towel with her, it had the Gryffindor symbol on it, instead of on her swimsuit.

She spread her towel on the grass and dived into the cold water. Scott admired her lithe, nicely formed figure for a while then followed her into the water.

"Oh! Its freezing!" she exclaimed, visibly shivering from the chill of the water.

He smiled. Where he came from, a neighboring school, it was always cold so he was used to the temperatures.

Draco looked out of a windo of the school and saw the two laughing, splashing eachother, and totally flirting. He glared and turned his thoughts and attention back to his essay he was writing for Snape. He gripped his quill so hard that it broke. He growled to himself as he took out a new quill.

What am I feeling? He asked himself. Why do feel this pain at her happiness? Why do I feel this way about her? Why? Why? Because you love her, a tiny voice in the back of his head said softly. Because you want her all to yourself. You want to please her, to make her laugh...

NO!!! I am a Malfoy... I do not love... Not mudbloods... I am a Malfoy!!! We do not have feelings... No... I can't... It's not true... My father would kill me... IT'S NOT TRUE!!!

"IT'S NOT TRUE!!!" he cried, his voice echoing in the silence of his room. But as much as he wanted to, he could not deny his feelings . He loved her. But what was the burning sensation he felt when he saw her with another guy. Was it...
