Dedications: Mmm...maybe to the endless hours we spend doing absolutely nothing but thinking about something, or someone for that matter.
Author's Note: Must keep writing. My hands are sore. But I'm excited because I might get a longboard real soon. So yeah. Read on. And, btw, thanks for all the great reviews! I hardly expected to get one review. I heart you all!

Chapter Four: All The Things He Said
Later on that night, Hermione lay in bed awake. She stared at the ceiling for a few minutes. Then she remembered what happened a few hours ago. Draco Malfoy informed her to a meeting with Dumbledore, which turned her whole summer upside down, and she was going to Hogsmeade tomorrow with Draco Malfoy. How could things get any worse?
Hermione took out her diary and began writing...
1 June
Today was very strange. First of all, Draco Malfoy, of all people, came up to ME (in the Library!) and told me I had a meeting with Dumbledore. Secondly, I found HIM at the meeting as well. This is the real killer: I'll be spending my ENTIRE summer with him in Hawaii, in the United States of America. Not to mention the fact that I am going to Hogsmeade with him tomorrow.
You know, he told me that he loved me today. Then he...kissed me. I didn't know what to do or think. I couldn't help but feel sorry for him. His father used to decide exactly what he had to do or how he behaved. Now Lucius is reported dead, and I hope he is. To tell you the truth, I actually enjoyed the kiss. It was my first, after all. His lips were so...warm and soft. It was like magic when our lips touched. I never wanted it to end.
I'll write a little more tomorrow, after our Hogsmeade trip. I just hope it goes well.
Hermione
She put away her quill and ink and went to bed.
When Hermione awoke the next morning, she was surprised that she dreamt about Draco. The two were lying on the sand at a beach in Hawaii. Laughing, smiling, giggling, doing all the things that lifelong friends would do. She was so into her dream that she woke up talking.
'That was strange,' Hermione thought, and got up out of bed.
She took a quick shower and ran down to the Great Hall for breakfast.
"Morning Harry, Ron, Ginny," said Hermione.
"Someone's a bit excited this morning," Ron groaned.
"We've got to study for finals today," Harry added.
"Right. We really should get going for the Library. You know Snape, he always manages to appoint us with the toughest questions for Potions. That lousy git," Ron muttered.
"Well, I've been reviewing all last week. I was at the Library yesterday when---," Hermione began, but then realized that it would probably be best if Harry and Ron didn't know what happened yesterday.
"Go on," Harry urged.
"Uhh...when I found this great book that had almost all of the information we could possibly need for our Potions final!" Hermione lied. It was corny, but anything to get Harry and Ron's attention off her.
"That's great, Hermione," Ron replied. "What was the book called?"
"Er, 'A Witch's Index to Potions'," she said.
"Right then. I've got to go study now. See you, Hermione!" Harry voiced.
"I should be off as well. Good day Hermione, Ginny," Ron called. He started to walk off with Harry.
"Are you going to Hogsmeade today, Hermione?" asked Ginny.
"I am."
"All alone?"
"N-No, with someone," Hermione stuttered.
"Like who? Seamus, Dean, who?" Ginny invoked.
"No one in particular." Hermione tried to lead Ginny away from the subject, but unfortunately it wasn't working.
"Come on Hermione! I promise I won't tell anyone else! Just tell me already!" Ginny exclaimed.
"Fine." Hermione took a deep breath. "Draco Malfoy."
Ginny gasped. "Really?"
"Yeah."
"You're so lucky! Draco Malfoy is only THE hottest guy in Hogwarts, you know!" Ginny shouted.
"Quiet, Ginny! People will start staring!" Hermione warned.
"Sorry, but I'm so...shocked, Hermione."
"I know. Please don't tell anyone, not even Ron. Especially not Ron. I don't want them to know yet," Hermione whispered.
"I promise."
"Good. I've got to go get changed. See you later, Ginny!" Hermione turned and left for the Gryffindor Common Room.
