A/N: I have to say that these next two chapters should be pretty good. For those who want to see a little *more* just wait and see. Mwahaha

Chapter 8
Harry and Hermione arrived back at the castle and Harry walked her back to her common room.
"Thank you for joining me today. I'm sorry it didn't work out".
"It's OK Harry. I'm glad we figured it out. I will see you later".
"Bye Mione" he said and he kissed on the cheek and left. She set off to her common room. She changed her clothes and headed to dinner. Afterwards she would talk to Draco.
She walked into the hall and sat by Harry and Ron.
"Good evening boys" she said with excitement in her voice.
"Whoa Herm. What are you so happy about?" Ron asked her. "Did your date go that well?".
"Umm well no, it didn't" Harry answered for her. It was more strange talking about it with him than it was with Hermione. "But it's alright, we just weren't meant to be" he said with a laugh. "But Ron's right. What has gotten into you?".
"Nothing, some things have just become clearer to me that's all" she answered him simply. She wasn't quite sure what to tell them yet.
"What are you talking about" Harry asked her.
Just then Lavender cut in. "Isn't it obvious. You can see it a mile away. She's in love. Who's the lucky guy? Come on you have to tell".
"There's nothing to tell. Now if you will excuse me I have to go study in the library". And with that she stood up. After one quick glance at the Slytherin table she left the Great Hall.
"Study for what??" Ron asked, but he got no answer.
Draco saw Hermione head out of the hall and followed her. He needed to talk to her, to find out what happened and where he stood with her. He quickly ran in front of her and stopped her in her tracks.
"How did it go? What is love?" he asked with a smile. There was a slight hint of nervousness in his voice.
"Oh Draco" she yelled as she threw her arms around his neck. "It's you. You are the only one I want!" With that he captured her lips with his. He kissed her softly at first but began to pick up his pace. The passion was growing between the two. Hermione had to stop before someone saw this.
"Do you want to head back to the common room? I'm not ready to be caught by anyone just yet."
"Sure Herm. Whatever you want." All he could do was beam. He was the happiest man alive.
They walked hand in hand to the common room with butterflies in their stomachs. When they arrived they decided to go up to Draco's room. They didn't want to be seen by anyone of course.
Of course when they got there, there was some kissing. Who could say no to that 'Sexy Slytherin' when he was so caring? When they finally stopped for air Hermione had a chance to look around the room. It was much like her room but the bed was done in sliver and green silk fabrics. There seemed to be millions of pillows sitting on it. It seemed to say comfort and of course Malfoy. The room was spotless and his eagle owl was perched on the solid oak dresser. It was a beautiful room that suited Draco perfectly. They both sat down on the bed together.
"So what now?" Draco asked her.
"I don't know. Are we uhh. . . boyfriend/girlfriend?" she asked with uncertainty.
"I would like that" he answered simply.
They talked for hours that night about anything and everything until they fell asleep in each other's arms. They both decided they would keep this a secret. . . .for a little while.
