Chapter 4 : Trees

POV Hermione

As Hermione hiked the gentle paths to the cabins, he had to endure Luna's ranting and raving about how she decided not to swim because of the invisible, man-eating mermaids.

'I'd be better off bunking with the Creeveys and Malfoy' she thought with a snort.

When they finally reached the cabins, Hermione stared in awe. These weren't tent-like structures that she had expected. They were 2 story lodges. And if Hermione knew the magical world well enough, they would be even bigger on the inside.

The counselor assigned the cabins and unfortunately Hermione was stuck with Luna.

"Ohmigosh" Luna started "we are going to have so much fun!"

'GRE------------AT' [hint the sarcasm]

Draco's POV

As Draco laid his stuff out on the bunk between Colin's and Antonio's he heard a voice call his name.

"Eh, M-Malfoy" a boy from 3 bunks down stuttered "Have you s-seen the b-beach."

"No, Why"

"No r-reason, other than throwing a s-sneakout party"

"Ummm.Are we allowed to" Dennis piped up.

"Of course not" said Colin "That why Im gonna take tons of pictures to prove to everyone at school that we did it."

"Who are we going to invite?"

"Not everyone. That would be to obvious" Draco reminded "The counselor's cabins are just across the path"

"How about we invite 5 girls. There are 5 of us anyway"

"As couples?"

"No, way all I know here is the mudblood" Draco protested.

"He has a point. Who decide by who we can trust."

"And how well they speak English"

"and how hot they are"

The boys spent the whole hike down to the mess hall debating which girls to invite. But when they walked the large cafeteria they had decided on 5 girls. Luna Lovegood (Colin) Hermione Granger (Antonio) Mellah Norlunni (Dennis) Lily Pacino (Robert "Stutter Boy" Ghodia) Lena Mangapori (Draco chose her but later realize that she had a pug-nose just like Pansy's and he mentally kicked himself)

"when should invite them?" Antonio asked

"How about now?" Draco pointed to a table seating the girls from groups 2
and 3.

"N-not now. Too many t-teachers"

Draco was about to Add to this comment when he heard a voice that was familiar, too familiar for him.

"get to yer seat Malfoy" It was hagrid.

Hermione must have heard or SEEN him because she rushed up to Hagrid and gave him a huge bear hug. Draco watched her eyes the whole time there was a look of relief in them as if Hagrid was her savior. Oh, how he secretly yearned for her to do the same to him.

'What the HELL am I thinking? She is the mudblood!'

"Draco! Draco!" Antonio was waving his hand in Draco's face. "stop staring and sit down before that big man yells at us again"

Once Draco sat down a very small perky man walked to the front of the room.

"Hello" said his squeaky voice "I am Mr. Milairet. I came here today to work on team building"

"Pushover"

"this is stupid"

'groan'

"I want everyone to go to your group counselors"

They did.

"Now your counselor will count you off by five. Whomever has your mutual number you will spend 20 minutes getting to know. Then the fun begins."

"Antonio lets start with you" cassie said. 1 2 3 Draco was waiting to see who got the next 4 5. 1. 2. 3. 4 . 'SHIT it just had to be Granger'

"You can go outside if you want to. Jut be back in 20 minute."

Hermione's POV

'Why is my vacation going so horribly wrong'

"I guess we should go outside. There will be less people to tell us to talk" said Hermione "because I have no plan of getting to know you."

"Me neither" Malfoy hissed

The two hateful teenagers sat under a large willow tree. Theyb sat there in an awkward silence for about two minutes. Nobody's POV "Goodbye" Hermione finally said.

"Where are you going?" Draco asked.

"Up" she stated plainly and started climbing up the tree. For a few seconds Draco listened to the rustle of branches until his curiosity overthrew his sense and he followed.

Hermione stopped at the last strong branches and took out her MP3 player. Hermione usually wouldn't bring electronics around wizards but when she read about the camp it said that the magical forces weren't strong enough to overthrow it.

When Draco finally caught up to Hermione, she was sitting on a big branch and had on some kind of earmuffs on.

"Hello" he said carefully. She didn't answer.

"HELLO" he half-screamed this time.

Hermione was shocked. There was Draco on the same branch, screaming at her while she had her headphones on. She was shocked that she lost her balancwe. But before she could fall she felt two strong arms wrap around her waist. An unwanted yet sensational tingle went down her spine.

Hermione's POV

Hermione took off her headphones and turned her head so that they were looking at each other. The first thing she noticed was how warm and soothing his eyes were. They usually looked cold and steely but now they looked silver and sexy.

"Thanks" she said with a smile.

"No problem" Draco answered smoothly.

For a moment there was an awkward silence in which Draco untwisted his arms from her.

"What is this pathetic muggle devise" Draco had gained back his sneer.

"It's an MP3 player. You know it plays music."

"I don't believe anything a filthy muggle made would work"

"No matter what I do,
All I think about is you.
Even When I'm with my boo
Boy you know I'm crazy over you."

Draco took off the headphones.

"It's called Dilemma."

Draco didn't say anything.

"What other music do you have?'

"The king of Slytherin wants to listen to muggle music?" she cocked her eyebrow. Draco couldn't help but laugh. For the rest of the time they took turns listening to music. Draco's favorite songs were 'Stacie's Mom' and 'I'd do anything'.

"Um Her-Granger we have to go back and.um..can we not mention this to anyone"

"Um.Ok" she said while inwardly wincing.

A/N: Ok It wasn't that great. Um I hope u guys liked it though. I already have the next chapter completed but I have to type it. I'll try to update ASAP. K? K. ~ Darker Than Ebony!
