*****************************************

*What the hell should I wear? * Hermione thought, looking through her now full-to-bursting walk in closet. Getting dressed had actually become harder then usual. She thought having so many clothes would be easier, but it just made her want to wear every little thing.

Draco had gone to put on some more comfortable clothing as well. He told her to bring her bathing suit, but wouldn't tell her where they were going. He had simply said, *I'm going to bring you somewhere special, so go change out of your robes, get a bathing suit and towel and meet me at the main entrance hall. * Then he had smirked, and went off.

She knew that they weren't going to the pool, but her mind just kept thinking up possibilities that she knew were far from the truth.

She had decided upon wearing one of her more 'skimpy' bikini's, just to see what Draco would say. It consisted of lots of string and very little cloth. She smiled at this. It was black, with many small diamonds embedded into it for the design.

Hermione came across a pair of extremely short, black cotton shorts. *Hmm, Draco will like these. *

She found a nice silvery - white, cropped tank top, and put it on.

*Well, at least I match. * She grabbed her towel, shoes and some sunglasses and left.

***************************************

Draco was already there when Hermione arrived, and he let out a low whistle. She smiled warmly at him, checking him out. Draco's arms looked so good in the white beater he had on, and Hermione just wanted him to wrap them around her. Those arms made her feel so protected.

*So, Draco, where are you taking me? *

*Wouldn't you like to know. * She gave him a death-glare and he laughed. *Follow me babe, you'll see. I promise you'll love it. *

She followed him, intrigued by his secret. Where could they possibly be going?

He led her to the forest bordering one side of the mansion. It was nothing like the forbidden forest. It was more like a forest that you would love to go hiking through, the kind where the sun shone through the trees brilliantly. You heard the calling of the birds, and could see the unicorns and deer roaming. It was beautiful really.

They walked further into the depths of the forest, passing rare flowers, stopping to see unicorns and other such things. But as time dragged on Hermione got anxious.

*Draco, how much farther is it? * She asked, slightly irritated, though still happy.

*Not much, just a few more minutes, * he smiled and continued. *See Hermione, when I was a kid, coming to Voldemort's mansion, I would often get bored and go off on my own, usually to come into here, and explore. Well, a few years back, I found the place I'm taking you to. But I really shouldn't tell you anymore until we get there. *

Hermione could only imagine what this place would be. She followed him until they reached a thick section of trees, like weeping willows, which you couldn't see through. She could hear a rushing sound of water coming from ahead.

*Ready? We're about there. *

*Yeah. *

Draco took her hand and walked with her through the drooping branched of the trees.

And Hermione gasped.

They had come upon a place, much different then the rest of the forest. There was a large waterfall, flowing down a large mass of rocks, about 60 feet up. The water cascaded into a small, though decent sized, crystal clear lake. Flowers in colors she had never seen before were growing from trees and the ground adding a bright touch to the secluded place. There were some little creatures here and there, which looked like butterflies with lights, flying about. But when you looked closer they were like little people, wearing flowers and leaves for clothing, and had beautifully intricate wings.

*They're faeries. * Draco said. *But not the type you might think of. These are earth faeries. They live in our world, are quite different from what most faeries are like, and only wizards can truly see them in the right perspective. Most muggles think they're some form of butterfly since they don't get a close up look. These faeries like wizards. *

One of them with deep, black hair and dark red-orange wings flew over to Draco and kissed him on the cheek. From the looks of it, it was small enough to sit comfortably in Draco's hand.

*Draco, * it squeaked. * It had been such a long time since you have been here. I've missed you. *

*And I've missed you to Flamedancer. By the way this is Hermione. Hermione, meet Flamedancer. *

*Nice to meet you! * It squeaked to Hermione and flew away.

*There shy Hermione, it took them a while to get used to me, but later maybe I'll introduce you to a few. *

Hermione was completely amazed. They were so beautiful. Never in her life had she actually believe that faeries existed, let alone in our world.

*Draco, there utterly gorgeous! * She smiled at her, *I knew you'd like them, but that's not all of what I wanted to show you. * He motioned for her to strip down to her bathing suit, as he was now doing.

Draco dove into the clear water of the lake. It was so clear and blue, Hermione had never seen such water in a lake. It was so. pure.

She dove in and immediately wished she would never leave. It felt so remarkable upon her. The water was by far cleaner then anything she had ever felt before.

Draco swam a few laps, and then beckoned Hermione to follow him over to the waterfall, which he had swum through, disappearing from sight.

Where did he go? She reluctantly walked over to the waterfall and made her way through it.

It felt like she had not gone through water at all. It was like walking through a cloud of silk, or a soft mist. It must be enchanted.

She had walked into a cave. There was only one form of outside light in it, slipping through a crack in the wall, but yet the hole cavern still lit up in a dim, yet dazzling way. Millions of blue crystals in a variety of shapes and sizes were embedded into the walls, creating a sort of reflective light, which sparkled through the cave.

Draco was sitting upon a rock against the right side of the place. She waded over to him, smiling brightly. When she made it over to the rock she sat down next to Draco.

*What is this place? It's so. deeply magical, so inspiring.*

*Well, babe, I would tell you, but I really don't know. I've known for a long time that there must be something magical about this place, because for one, in this cavern, time doesn't seem to exist. *

Hermione looked at him inquisitively.

*When we entered this place through the willow branches, I'm pretty sure we were entering a different world. A small one held within a big one. You understand me so far? *

She nodded.

*The only way in is through that exact gap that I lead you through. It's also the only way out. But if we had walked around it instead, we would be in just another part of the forest. *

Hermione was listening intently.

*In this 'world' time goes much slower. If I wear a watch, it starts going at a much slower pace. An hour here is like a minute in our world. But in this little cavern, time doesn't exist at all, unless of course it goes so tremendously slow that I wouldn't have noticed.* Draco's expression grew questionable, as if he was pondering the answer to something.

*But I do doubt that, * he finally stated.

Hermione didn't say anything, she just nodded again. This was nothing like any of her books. She didn't understand this place, even thought she already loved it so much. She felt attached to it for some strange reason. Like she never wanted to leave.

Her thoughts were interrupted by Draco gently nuzzling her neck. Every so often he would nip at her skin affectionately. Then she realized. There was no time here. They could do whatever they wanted. Anything at all, and stay as long as they like and no one would know.

Hermione felt as if she suddenly had a power. A power over time. Hermione liked this. She could make it so that now her and Draco didn't have just one day before school started, they could have months. Of course, she didn't wish to do that.

*But having a few extra hours before the party would be nice. no distractions.* she thought this to herself with a smirk.

Hermione stood up and began to take off her bathing suit, ignoring the inquisitive, yet horny looks send her way from Draco. When she was completely naked she sat down on his lap.

*Draco, I want to go skinny-dipping. * She said to him. *Care to join me? * Hermione could tell that Draco had no problem with the idea, as she watched him look her completely over, his hands hovering up and down the sides of her slim waist along with other places.

*All right. * Hermione got off his lap and Draco took off his swim shorts. Then he walked into the water.

The cave was wide and went quite far back. The water he was in was about 5 feet, but going closer to the center would have proved to be deeper.

*Coming Princess? *

She didn't respond, just strode into the water, nearing Draco. When she reached him, she asked, *Wouldn't that make you the Prince? Maybe you could just be my Prince Charming. *

*Ahh, yes, but see, I, unlike him, was never a toad. *

Hermione laughed at this. *Well, well, I guess we can make an exception, this once. * She was about an inch away from his face.

*Good, * he mumbled, reaching out to kiss her tenderly on the lips, as they twirled about in the misty coolness of the water surrounding them, secluded in the cavern.

Hermione loved Draco's passion. She could feel it pumping through his veins, fulfilling her every desire. His hands and body always knew exactly what to do to make it perfect, to make her feel so comfortable, leaving her to concentrate fully on her craves and needs. She feened for him endlessly. Being with him felt so right, that nothing could ever go wrong.

His hands twisted through the soft locks of her hair and he deepened the kiss, lustfully bringing her close, his body firmly pressed against her. The pounding of his heart accentuated against her skin, as it musically joined the pounding of her own, entwined like a single dance.

The only sound that could be heard was the waterfall behind them and the passionate moans flowing between them. No matter how cold the water was on her bare skin, she still felt beads of sweat forming from the fire within her.

Draco gently held her, bring her back over to the rock they lay on previously. He set her down and laid upon her, skillfully not breaking the kiss. There was no need for Draco to be tantalizing and slow and polite. Not with them both so bare and naked upon each other, lost in their desires.

Hermione needed him in her, moving with her, so the beating of their hearts could join the rhythmic motions of their bodies moving within the depths of the other. Draco's hands made their way down her body, grabbing at her breasts firmly, making Hermione's moans deepen in sound. Echoes of their passion were filling the cavern, making it more so arousing then they each thought possible.

Hermione couldn't wait any longer to feel his manhood filling her body, she needed it now, regardless of consequence.

She grasped his hardness within her palm and thrust it into her, screaming inwardly and outwardly with pleasure.

Hermione felt like she was on a cloud, as the warmth in her veins felt that they would burst. Eyes wide in shock she moaned into his mouth, bringing on such a pressure her lips feared they would break.

The thrusts inside her body made her unconscious to anything not happening inside her body. She almost forgot where she was, or anything else otherwise.

All she could feel, or think about was the rapid movement of his body running through her, and the captivating pleasures which made her moan in ecstasy.

Ecstasy was an understatement.

She arched into him willingly drawing him closer, pulling his hands onto the swell of her breast to add to her enjoyment.

As his hands worked miracles on her upper body, she wrapped her legs around his torso to increase the satisfaction, which overtook her more and more with each growing moment.

As she reached the tip of her orgasm she let out a lingering moan and fell back. Draco soon same as well and his warmth filled her body, making it completely perfect.

He, too, fell back exhausted, though she denied him allowance to pull out of her body, keeping her legs still tight around him.

Catching her breath, she slowly allowed herself to come back to reality and leave behind the bliss, which had completely controlled her just moments ago.

Then she finally let him go, no words exchanged, just exhausted, yet delighted expressions shared between them.

Draco kissed her again lightly on the lips, gently sucking on her bottom lip. His hands were wrapped around her slim frame, one reaching the nape of her neck, to pull her closer to him.

*Draco, * she whispered calmly though meaningfully, *You complete me. *

No more words were needed. And for once, Draco didn't smirk at her, instead he just looked deep into her eyes. Something was different. He was looking upon her truthfully, so deeply, passionately, so affectionately. She could read it in his eyes, exactly the words that weren't exchanged.

His eyes read, *I love you. *

She felt it too.

*************************************

Later, after laying there in silence for what felt like forever, but could have only been a few minutes, they strode back into the water, bemused expressions crossing their faces.

*Draco, * Hermione said breaking the silence.

*Yeah baby? *

Hermione, unburdening her mind, spoke on. *Draco, what if I get pregnant? * She had just realized this, and it wasn't a happy thought. Although she'd love to have his child, it was to early in life, they both knew it.

He smiled at her genuinely. *Don't worry, you can't get pregnant in this cave. *

*Why not? *

*Well, love, There is no time here, correct? *

*Yes.*

*Well it takes time to grow right? Well neither of us will ever age a single day in this cave, because without time there is no development. For a child to form, their needs to be time for it to all happen, time for it to develop. *

Hermione started to understand. *Oh, I see, so if there is no time for it to happen, then it won't. We could stay here forever, but then we would not grow. It's almost like putting a stopper in life for a moment. Well at least in the part of life which includes time. *

*Exactly, * he said smiling down upon her face, looking into her eyes, twinkling like the crystals around them.

The two of them put their bathing suits back on, staying in the cave for a while longer, exchanging affectionate kisses, before swimming back out again.
