Hermione's POV
Hermione was bound to the stake with hay surrounding her. Her tattered skirts blew in the fake wind coming from the many fans off stage. Forced tears trickled down her cheeks as she stared longingly at Draco whose suit was also tattered. "I love you, Alonzo," she called in a choked voice.
Draco tried to break away from the many hands holding him back. "Demeter!" he yelled as a man stepped forward with a flaming torch. The curtains closed as a blood-curling scream erupted before fading away.
The curtains reopened and Draco sat on the floor cradling Hermione in his lap. He was sobbing over her lifeless body. Hermione's body was covered in soot. Her sapphire was giving off giving off a blue light. (A/N: It was a hollowed out piece of blue glass with a Christmas light inside.)
A young woman came out. "Oh Alonzo. You will join her someday," she said. Draco looked up with tears in his eyes.
"I'll join her now," he whispered, pulling out a dagger from his boot and stabbed himself and fell beside Hermione. (A/N: He really didn't stab himself!!!) The curtains closed as applause broke out.
Hermione smiled and stood with Draco. All of the cast came out and stood inline with Hermione and Draco in the center. The curtain opened and they all bowed.
Weeks passed uneventfully except for the fact that Draco and Hermione were growing closer together. The two of them dreaded going back to Hogwarts. They would be returning in two weeks.
Draco's POV
It was Christmas Eve and Hermione was sending out presents. Draco was writing a letter to his mother to wish her a merry Christmas. Draco picked up a wrapped parcel and ran upstairs. The Christmas tree was set in the ballroom.
Draco noticed there were many presents under the tree. Some of the Hogwarts students must have sent presents. He frowned as he looked at the presents. 'Most of tem must be for everyone else but me.' He shook his head and jogged back to his room.
(A/N:I would have stopped the chapter here though it would have been too short so I decided to put in the other really short chapter. So now there are only 17 chapters! Enjoy!)
Hermione's POV
Hermione sighed and put down her quill. She flexed her fingers to get rid of her writers' cramp. She was using Raven's owl and Daniel's owl along with Harry's owl, which had just dropped off a parcel for her.
She finally finished and got up. She left her room and wandered through the hallway before reaching Draco's room. Hermione knocked and heard him tell her to come in.
Hermione looked in and saw Draco lying on his bed. She smiled and climbed onto his bed.
"Hey," she said softly as she snuggled up to him. Draco instinctively wrapped his arms around her as she nuzzled into his neck.
"Hey," he whispered back.
Hermione smiled and closed her eyes. "You're turning into Alonzo. You're no longer my dangerous dragon," she said into his neck.
"Is that a good thing or a bad thing?" he asked.
"Good," she answered.
Draco's POV
Draco kissed her forehead and smiled when she leaned her head back for better access. Draco kissed her lips, then her neck, then her shoulders. Draco looked rather annoyed with the noodle strap of her pjs.
"This is in my way," he muttered. Hermione pulled herself up so that they were at eye level.
"Move it if you have to," she whispered.
Draco smirked mischievously. "Gladly,' he replied.
Draco gently removed the strap and kissed her shoulders. He started kissing down her collarbone when he stopped at the sound of her quickened breathing. "Tell me if I'm taking this too far," he whispered.
Hermione answered back huskily. "Take me as far as you want!"
Draco smirked as she quickly pulled his shirt off and ran her hands over his chest as if she were memorizing every muscle.
Draco fumbled with the blanket and pulled it over their heads. He knew that anyone could hear his accelerating heartbeat.
Draco and Hermione were unaware of a third presence in the room. A pair of narrowed eyes watched from a shadowed corner before slowly fading away.

BIGHARRYFAN: *swoons* Holy crap I loved Pirates of the Caribbean! God Orlando's fine with that mustache and stubby little beard! I thought he looked good with blonde hair! Now I'm a brunette Orlando lover! *waves around Tom Felton and Orlando Bloom flags*
Meg: Man! THAT'S what I forgot! I was going to add that in but I got sidetracked on something else! (I'm trying to draw my fave version of Draco!) Megan is a popular name. Don't be surprised if there's an author called Meghan!
I give it all to Mr. Black: Yay! Someone who actually reads over all of the reviews! Yes..I can't even count how many times I've established the goddess thing!
A/N: What? Only three reviews? Oh well, I'll probably get the rest of the reviews for last chapter later. Don't be surprised if your review from the last chapter ends up on the next chapter!
Okay, once again, what was that thing in the shadows? I think I'm pushing your minds into the gutters with the Draco/Hermione scene near the end of this chapter. (I'm not very graphic! So don't ask for more detail!) What does everyone get for X-mas? What will Draco get from his father? I know! But you'll have to wait until tomorrow!
