He got to the feast and stepped through the door. Everyone suddenly went strangley silent and turned to stare at him. He was puzzled. Why the hell is everyone looking at ME? Waht did I do now? Do I have something in my teeth? Is my hair messed up or something? Am I not wearing any clothes? He immediatley checked himself twice over and figured that nothing was wrong with his appearence. He walked to his spot at the Slytherin table. He sat between Scott and Crabbe, Goyle was accross from him and next the Goyle was Pansy.

"AH now that Mr. Malfoy has joined us, let the feast begin!" exclaimed Dumbledor. As he said that food began appearing on the plates and drinks in goblets.

"Where the hell were you Draco?" Scot asked in between mouthfuls. "We had to wait 20 minutes for you!"

"Yeah Draco," simpered Pansy. "Where were you honey?"

"I was in my fucking room!!!! And don't call me honey you pig-faced-dorky piece-of-shit!" Draco snapped at her. She put on the puppy face and seeing she would get no attention from Scott and no apology from Draco she turned to Goyle who turned his full attention to ehr by putting his arm around her waist and then continuing to shovel food down his throat.

Draco ate his food in silence. Every so often he would look up at Hermione and smile. Once, she met his eyes and gave him a friendly smile. She blew him a kiss and then went back to talking to Harry about his Quidditch playing, she was telling him how he would definately beat Slytherin and how he would be one of the greatest Quidditch players in all of the World. He didn't seem to be listening, he was to engaged in slowly piking his food apart. He had seperated all of his food in to tiny sections on his plate. Ginny was trying to feed him some mashed potatoes and Ron was trying to get him to drink some pumkin juice.

Draco smiled back at her and then began eating again. Hermione talked lightly with Harry and Ron for the rest of the dinner. Draco watched her pick at ehr food as if something had begun to bother her. When he had finished eating he could now fully tell something on Hermione's mind was troubling her. He said his goodbyes to his friends and then retreated back to the common room. He got out some beautiful red roses and the little silver box that contained the gift he had gotten for Hermione.

Hermione finished eating and went back to her dorm to get ready for bed. As she rounded the corner nad faced the prtrait of the Fat Lady, she found Scott lounging against the wall waiting for something or someone.

"Scott!!!" she exclaimed. "What are you doing here?" she backed away from him slowly and began to wlak towards the Fat Lady, hoping to get inside and not have to talk to him.

"Looking for you litle pretty one," he said silkily as he approached her. He came up close to her so his face was an inch away from hers, he then preceeded to wrap his arks around her, pinning her arms to her sides.

"SCOTT GET OFF!!!!" she cried. She struggled to get loose but he was too strong. And thats about the time Draco came around the corner. He dropped the roses and gifts to the floor. He had half a mind to wlak up to them and pull them apart, he wanted to beat the shit out of Scott, but he couldn't get his legs to move in that direction. It was all he could to to tear himself away from that spot and run to a nearby bathroom before the tears that were blinding his eyes fell.

Scott leaned in and kissed Hermione hard on the mouth. He pushed her up against the wall and tugged at the bottom of her shirt. She screamed as loud as she could, but it was muffled by his mouth pressing against hers. She threw all her weight against him. He broke the kiss. She then freed her arms and slapped him as hard as she could across the face, she slapped him so hard a trickle of blood found its way out of the corner of his lip and down his chin. He brushed it with his fingers.

"WHAT THE HELL DO YOU THINK YOU ARE PLAYING AT YOU ASSHOLE! I HAVE A FUCKING BOYFRIEND!!!" she screamed at him and tried to run.

"I needed that," he said. He licked the blood off his fingers and blocked her way. He leaned in again to kiss her.

THUD!!!

"Ughhhh," he groand as he fell to the floor in a heap clutching his balls.

She had kicked him as hard as she could. She ran around tha corner and she promptly found herself smacking the floor face first very hard. She had tripped over a little silver box tied with a green ribbon. With scratched and bleeding hands she picked up the box gently and sat next the the wall. She opened the card that read:

TO: Hermione FROM: Draco
Yours Forever

She stood up shakily and stepped on something crunchy, she looked down and found she had stepped on the stemms of beautiful, lush, blood red roses tied with a green ribbon that seemed to be studded with stars. Tears began to fill her eyes once more. She ran to a nearby bathroom.

She ran into the bathroom and threw herself on a pile of towels. She cried and cried and cried untill there were nore more tears left to shed, that when she heard the sound of water flowing from a faucet. She turned around and promptly noticed she wasn't alone in tha bathroom. In fact, she was very far from it.

"OH MY GOD!!! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!"
