Disclaimer: I own nothing but Damien.
A/N: I have a feeling that you all will like this chapter. So read and review. Five reviews will get you the next chapter!
Over the next few weeks they became friendlier. It wasn't like they were great pals or anything. It was just that they were becoming nicer, and more comfortable with one another.
Over the weeks Damien had grown. When Hermione first met him he was just a little over ten pounds, but now he was almost forty! His horns had grown from tiny little balls on his head to three-inch horns. He was loosing his puppy coat and his adult coat was thicker.
Still Crookshanks didn't like Damien, but he tolerated him most of the time. Hermione had a feeling that Crookshanks knew that soon Damien would be much larger then him.
It was time for potions class. Hermione smiled to herself. Snape hated the puppies. He hated Damien with a passion until he found out that it was also Draco's puppy. And before she had a hard time calling him Draco. It was getting much easier.
Hermione decided to start wearing some makeup. Lavender had suggested it. So she got a reddish brown. It went well with her hair. She also straightened her hair. It was still kinda fluffy, but much better then usual.
"Damien, let's go!" Hermione called as she grabbed his leash off her table.
Instantly he was by her side sitting. Waiting for his leash as his tail swished. She kissed his head and he licked her cheek. Then after placing his leash on him she left and headed for Potions.
"Hey Mione!" Ron greeted her as he saw her nearing him in the hall.
"Hey Ron." Hermione smiled.
Hermione looked down. Ron was holding the leash to his puppy. Ron and Crabbe's puppy was a terror. He charged at everyone and everything, except Damien. They got along perfectly well.
"Damien's getting big." Ron commented as they walked.
"Yeah, Havoc is getting. . ." Hermione paused.
She looked down. Damien towered over Havoc by at least two and a half inches. He wasn't growing much lately.
"It's ok. I know. He is kinda small." Ron sighed.
As they entered their seats they could hear Snape walking down the hall towards the classroom. Oh, Snape was late, twenty points from Slytherin! Or so Hermione wished.
"Everyone take out last nights assignment and pass it forward. If it is not in my hands within the next forty seconds you will receive no credit." Was Snape's greeting as he entered the room.
Hermione pulled it out and handed it forward to Snape who pretended not to see it and collected everyone else's. She stood up to give it to him but he walked away to retrieve another paper. Hermione now held three papers in her hand. If he wouldn't take it, it would affect three people's grades.
"Is that it? I will take no more. If you didn't turn it in, then shame on you." He smiled and looked over at Hermione.
"But sir, I was trying to give it to you, but you kept walking away!" Hermione blurted out.
"Hold your tongue child! I did not ask for your comment. Do not blame your dawdling on me. You had your chance to turn it in and you failed to give it to me on time. I am sorry for those of you who handed Miss Granger your paper, but you won't be getting any credit. You can thank her later." Snape sneered.
"But sir, my paper was in there!" Draco complained.
"Well then, give me your paper and I will give you credit. You can also hand me the paper of the other unfortunate student. Miss granger will have to pay for being slow." He snapped his head toward her.
"But that's not fair!" Hermione hissed.
"Silence. I would watch what I said if I were you. I am seriously considering giving you detention with Filch today." Snape growled.
"Um sir, it was my fault. I took a long time getting my paper. I had trouble finding it. It was my fault. She waited for me because if she walked up and handed you her paper, my paper would have been late. It was my fault sir." Draco sighed.
"Very well then. You all will receive full credit, but Miss Granger, you still need to keep quiet. A Prefect of all people should not be arguing with a teacher." Snape snatched the papers and placed them on his desk.
Hermione quickly looked back at Draco and gave him a smile of gratitude. He smirked slightly and then as he saw Snape turn his face returned to normal.

After classes got out for the day Hermione waited outside for Draco. She wanted to thank him for saving her ass earlier that day. He came out after a few minutes.
He walked right past her and continued. Hermione ran to catch up with him and stayed along by his side.
"Where did you come from?" Draco asked when he finally realized she was there.
"I've been here for a minute. I was waiting for you outside of class." Hermione answered.
"Oh." He nodded.
"Um, I just kinda wanted to thank you for earlier." She smiled.
"What are you talking about?" He questioned.
"For helping me out with Snape. That was very nice of you. And I guess I just wanted to thank you for it." She grinned.
"Oh that. It was nothing." He shrugged.
"Well, thank you anyway. That was very sweet of you." Hermione sighed.
"Right then. I have to go. I have work to do." He opened the door to his room and was almost in.
"Wait." Hermione called.
He paused and turned around slowly. He stared at her. It was in that moment that Hermione first saw him. His hair was so shiny. She thought about how it looked gold in the sunlight, and how it looked silver in the moonlight. She looked at how his eyes were a silver blue, and so clear. She looked at his arms, his chest, his legs, he was pretty well built.
By the time she realized what she was doing she was aware of him staring at her with a huge grin. She blushed a deep red and regained her composure. He laughed and shook his head.
"Like what you see?" He smirked.
"What are you talking about?" She asked like she didn't have a clue as to what it was he was talking about.
"Don't even think I didn't just see you checking me out. You were checking me out Hermione Granger. So, what do you think?" He took a few steps towards her.
"I think that I have homework that I need to finish." She stuttered as he came closer.
He continued to come near her. In a few seconds she had backed up into a corner. His hands rested on the walls and Hermione had about an inch and a half between each arm. He was smirking evilly at her and he leaned forward towards her ear when his eyes landed on her lips. Then his smirk grew even broader.
"What would you do if I kissed you right now?" He whispered seductively as his lips lightly touched her ear.
A/N: Did you like that? I'll bet you did! Remember, the sooner you get those five reviews in, the sooner you will get chapter nine! So read and review!
