The whole of Draco's body was pressed up against her, his hands started to roam her body. The touch of her again him filled him with the uttermost desire to claim her as his. Draco started to push Hermione towards the nearest wall. Hermione could feel that Draco wanted more then just a kiss, and that he moving her toward the bathtub wall. Hermione through up a quick plan to get Draco off her, she wanted him but she isn't ready for sex just yet.

"Malfoy, what do you think you're doing?"

"Ain't you enjoying this mudblood?"

"no, not one bit now get off me, ferret"

"No, why should I listen to a mudblood like you?"

"Because I love you" Draco stopped looking surprise and let go of Hermione, she took the chance to swim away, got out of the pool, grabbed her clothes and ran to her bedroom, leaving Draco to think ' Did she say she loved me? I must have too much water in my ears.' In the back of Draco's mind he knew he was wrong. Getting out of the pool he walked to his room when he notice that Hermione had left her bra behind, he picked it up and secretly stored it away in his draws. Letting out a sigh he flopped onto his bed and fell into a dreamy sleep about a certain muggle he loves.

When Hermione got to her room she locked her doors with a powerful charm. Slipping on her white night grown she sat at her dressing table looking at her refection ' Did I just tell Malfoy that I love him? my god what am I going to do?' she picked up her brush and ran it several times through her long hair, then doing a drying charm. she sat there for a while before noticing that it was 4 in the morning, deciding to sleep on it, she made her way over to her bed and as soon as her head hit the pillow she was dreaming about one sexy blonde Slytherin.

Draco had woken up early the next morning dispirit the late night he had, then he remembered what had happen last night. Smiling at the through, he remembered holding Hermione against his body feeling every inch of her body pressed up against him, feeling her chest pressed up against his, her skin feeling silky smooth against his, her lips were as soft as rose petals. Oh how he wanted to hold her again, to taste those sweet lips, to breath in her scent that weakens him with desire. Draco decide to get ready, taking a quick shower, putting on his school robes and walked out of his room where he made is way down to the Great Hall for breakfast.

Hermione woke up for her lovely dream with Draco, and rembered what happened last night in the head bathroom, she could still feel Draco's body against her body then she remembered what she had told him, 'oh no what am I to do? How am I going to face him today' she thought getting distressed over nothing then shaking her head lightly telling herself to stop it because deep down she know that Draco loves her or he wouldn't of stopped. So she got out of bed and got ready for breakfast.

On the way down to the Great Hall, Draco spotted Hermione walking in front of him. before he could call out to her Draoc sees someone running up behind her and grabbed her and then they both disappear. When Draco got to where they disappear he saw a trail of blood on the stone floor. He followed it until he came to an empty class room and he saw that Hermione was held at a knife's egde.

Hermione could hear someone running and before she could turn around to see who it was, strong arms wrapped itself around her waist and a hand clamped over her mouth and then there was darkness. Hermione bit down on the hand, hoping that her captor would let her go but to her surprise he just let breathed in deeply but kept his hand over her mouth and she could taste the blood. "You shouldn't try to get away, Hermione cos it's not going to work" not knowing who her captor was, then she felt a sharp object held against her neck, "Move and I will kill you." Hermione felt scared but she did what her captor said. Then a voice came from the doorway, "Let her go if you know what is good for you" before her captor could say anything a blast hit him and he let Hermione go. She ran over to where Draco was standing, he caught her as she fell to the ground missing the opportunity to see who Hermione's captor was as he ran out of the room. "Hermione, are you ok?" Draco asked Hermione softly but she fainted before she could reply, cursing under his breath he swear to bring whoever had tried to kill Hermione to light. After taking Hermione to the hospital wing he went to see Dumbledore to tell him what happen.

"…I have already taken her to the hospital wing. I am concerned for her safety."

" It's ok Mr Malfoy, we will find out who had try to kill Miss Granger. Now I suggest you go back to the hospital wing to see if Miss Granger is ok"

"Yes, sir"

As Draco was making his way back to the hospital wing he through about how close he was going to lose Hermione. He made a decision that he will tell Hermione he loves her as soon as her sees her. Draco was just out side the hospital wing when someone hit him over the head with something heavy, he could feel blood trickling down his neck and he knew no more.
