Chapter 5

"So what do you want to do today?" Ron asked.

Kitty smiled. "Not go to class, that's for sure." Ron laughed and nodded in agreement. They sat there for a while, with Ron stroking Kitty's hair and Kitty gently humming "Say Anything" by Good Charlotte. After a while, Ron gently kissed Kitty's hair. She looked up at him and smiled. His hair was messy, and it looked extremely sexy that way. She let her hand travel down his arm (Ron is shirtless by the way) as she admired his nice biceps. Then her eyes wandered down to linger on his gorgeous pectorals (that's chest for those who don't know) and abs. Her hand moved down to outline the well- toned muscles of his stomach. She looked up into Ron's eyes and felt the energy that was in them.

"You like, huh?" Ron teased.

"Hell yeah," Kitty blurted out, then bit her lip as her cheeks turned pink.

"Thought so," Ron laughed. "No one can resist me," he added with a cheeky grin.

Kitty laughed and stuck her tongue out at Ron playfully. "Hey, get that tongue back in your mouth or find some better use for it." Ron laughed as he watched Kitty's cheeks burn scarlet. When she finally looked up, she met Ron's eyes and noticed a mischievous glimmer in them. She smiled as she remembered the last time she had seen them sparkle like that. It was the time they had their first kissing session at a party to celebrate a Quiddich victory, so she had a faint idea of what was going to happen next. Ron leaned toward her and locked his lips around hers. Kitty fed off of the kiss and went ahead to deepen it by doing as Ron suggested and finding a better use for her tongue. The kissing got extremely passionate and Kitty suddenly felt her tank top sliding off. She shuddered slightly as she felt Ron's hand move down her back and he began tracing patterns. She ran her fingers through his hair and they soon got lost in the sea of sheets that surrounded them.

Kitty's eyes snapped open. 'Damn it, what time is it?' she thought. It turned out to be 6:15. She was supposed to be with Draco 15 minutes ago, but she was so exhausted from that day that she and Ron had gone back to sleep. She quickly jumped out of bed and reached for her clothes when she felt a hand touch her arm. She jerked, slightly startled.

"Where you going, babe?" Ron asked groggily.

"I have to go meet Draco for our Potions tutorial," she answered. "I know, I know," she added as Ron groaned, "but I have to get my Potions grade up. You wouldn't want me staying here for another whole year now would you?"

"No!" Ron yelled out. Kitty giggled and ran her hand down his cheek.

"I'll be back around 8," she assured him. She quickly got dressed and rushed toward the 2nd floor.

Draco was pacing back and forth across the room. 'Where is she?' he wondered nervously. He looked up, just in time to see something fly past the door. Then it came back again. The 3rd time, the thing flew in through the door. Draco recognized Kitty as she skidded to a halt grabbing on to the desk to stop herself.

"Sorry I'm late," she gasped. "Fell asleep with...my homework." She blushed.

"It's ok," Draco said. "I understand. Ron is your boyfriend after all." He looked down.

"Draco," Kitty gently began. "Hermione knows."

Draco froze. "What?" he asked, pretending to not understand.

"She knows, Draco. She found your note," Kitty looked down.

Draco shook his head. "She couldn't have," he laughed unbelievingly.

"She did, and she confronted me. That's why I wasn't in class today. We got into this huge fight yesterday." Kitty sighed. 'Why does life have to be so hard?' she asked herself.

Draco sat down, shaking his head. 'Why did it have to be Hermione?' he thought. 'If only she didn't still like me...' "Is she going to tell?" he asked nervously.

"No-Well she said she wouldn't so that Ron wouldn't get hurt, but I really don't know. Maybe we'll have to cut our visits short from now on so no one will suspect anything..." she trailed off.

Draco looked down, disappointed. "I guess. I mean, it's for the best and all..."

Kitty raised his chin with her hand. "Yeah, but at least we still have this moment together." She smiled.

Draco looked into Kitty's eyes and finally broke into a smile. "Yeah, at least we have this moment." He leaned toward her and they shared a romantic kiss.

"Students, please listen." Kitty, along with the rest of the Great Hall, turned her head in the direction from where the voice was coming from. Professor Dumbledore was tapping his goblet with a spoon.

"Now, as some of you may have heard, there will be a special dance to honor the 7th years before their graduation. The dance will be held the day before the last of school. Unfortunately, not everyone may go. Only 5th years and up are allowed to attend. The curfew will be extended until 3 am, but no later. Now remember, curfew means you must be back in the common room, not your dorms," he added with a twinkle in his eye. "We will elect a boy and a girl to represent the King and Queen of the Graduation Dance. These two do not have to be dating. They might not even be from the same house." A few groans were heard. Dumbledore pretended not to hear. "But they will lead the rest of the students into the final dance of the year, whether they like each other or not. That is all for now," he concluded as he sat down again.

Ron turned excitedly to Kitty. "This is fantastic!" he exclaimed. "I wonder who I will ask to the dance," he joked. Kitty playfully elbowed him, then kissed his cheek.

"Ronald Weasley," she said in a mock-important voice. "Will you go to the Graduation Dance with me?" She looked at him, pretending to be nervous like she thought he would say no.

Ron grinned. "I'd be honored," he joked. They smiled at each other, their love growing every second.

Kitty quickly glanced over to the Slytherin table, where a pair of blue eyes glanced sadly back at her.

Kitty turned back to Ron and forced a smile. She couldn't help but hurt that Draco was going to go with someone else, or even worse, by himself. But she wasn't even sure if she was really hurting or if she just thought it would be right to feel guilty about playing around like that. She wasn't sure if she cared that much about Draco anymore...
