A/N: Sorry it took me so long to get this up. I've finally finished my science project, and I'm almost done with my English project. I turn that in on Monday. After that I might have a math project, but I highly doubt it. Sorry, this may not be one of my better chapters. I've been busy. But I'm working on it!
The next morning Hermione woke up, and for the first time in a long time she didn't care about anything. She didn't care if she missed a few classes, even though it was a Saturday. She didn't care if she failed a class or two. She didn't care what anyone thought about anything. All she cared about was Draco. Ever since he said those three little words to her the night before, she was the happiest she'd ever been.
So this is what love feels like? Hermione thought as she lay in Draco's bed. His arm was draped across her side to hold her to him. She couldn't believe that she was in love. She couldn't believe he loved her.
She smiled to herself and sighed. He picked her. Out of all the girls in the entire school, and the entire world for that matter, he chose her. She didn't dare question why. She simply wanted to stay there happily forever.
Draco shifted slightly, and that notified Hermione that he had just woken up. Hermione turned to her other side so she could face him properly. His eyes slowly opened and he just stared back at her for the longest time. Then Hermione leaned forward and kissed his nose.
"Morning." She softly greeted him with a smile.
"Morning." He replied and sat up.
Hermione got out of bed and went into the closet. She whole time she was humming the song she had heard the night before. Hermione was just so happy, out of all the things she had expected to happen last night, that, was certainly not one of them.
"Somebody's in a good mood this morning. Any particular reason?" Draco yawned.
"Yes." Hermione walked out holding her outfit for the day.
"And?" He prompted with an arched eyebrow.
"It was something you said last night." She gave him a hint as she shyly smiled.
"Did I really say that last night?" He asked with wide eyes.
"Yes. Why? Did you not mean to?" Hermione stopped and her smile faded.
"No, I just wasn't sure if I actually said it last night. I've been thinking about it all week, and I wasn't sure if I should say it or not." He sighed.
"Why?" Hermione asked.
"Because I wasn't sure if I had the courage to, or if you'd even say it back. I was afraid of everything being too much for you." He said softly.
"Well it's not too much for me. I meant what I said last night." Hermione stated.
"The part of you not leaving me or the part where you said it back." Draco questioned with a look of slight confusion.
"Both. I do love you, and I'm not going to leave you." Hermione kissed his cheek softly and went to go change.

After getting ready Hermione and Draco walked to breakfast together. Apparently word had already spread to the younger years, seeing as they already heard some of the first years talking about them in hushed voices until they saw them approaching. And none of them gave the looks of shock and surprise like the older students.
Hermione merely shrugged at it. She was far too happy to even think about anyone else. As they walked into the great hall hand in hand all heads turned towards them. The teachers, who hadn't noticed them before certainly saw them now.
Snape's jaw dropped and he gave Draco a look of pure disgust. Madame Pince shook her head with disapproval. She was ashamed and saddened to see such a wonderful young woman with such a frightfully horrid young man. McGonnagall wasn't exactly sure what she thought about it. She wasn't disappointed. She didn't approve, but she certainly didn't disapprove. You could see the looks ranging from fear and horror to pure distaste and repulse. And then there was Dumbledore. He smiled brightly at the two of them and nodded to show his approval. It made Hermione happy to see that someone was happy for them.
"I'll meet you in the common room after breakfast. Try to get out of here a little early. I don't want anyone troubling you." Draco said in a low voice so no one could hear.
"Ok, I'll try." Hermione nodded.
"You know what? I think it might be better if I give you a signal so we can walk out together. I just want to make sure you're safe. Now that the whole school knows about us, there may be more then one weirdo to watch out for." Draco stated.
"You should watch out too. I'm not the only one in danger here. Just because I was the only one attacked so far doesn't mean that yours isn't coming. Be careful from now on Draco." Hermione warned.
"You too. We're in for a long and hard time here. Do you think we can handle it?" Draco asked.
"Yes I do. We can talk more about this later, but you need to eat now. I'll see you in a few minutes." Hermione kissed softly on the lips and then headed towards the Gryffindor table.
Almost everyone else at her table glared at her. People turned their heads and looked away from her as if she were the most disgraceful thing they'd ever seen. She felt a little hurt by this, but she knew it was coming long ago. So it didn't come as a surprise to her.
Finally she found a place where people weren't looking away from her. None were exactly looking directly at her, but they didn't turn her away. Harry concentrated on his food. Ron hadn't noticed her due to the scarfing of his meal. Lavender gave a small hesitant smile and then grabbed a second helping. Pavarti gave her a wink and a giggle. Seamus was starring at a girl over at the Ravenclaw table. Dean was staring at the same girl. And Neville gave her a sympathetic and apologetic look.
Hermione seated herself and didn't even try to start a conversation. It could eventually lead to trouble. She decided to wait and see if anyone would talk to her. Then she might respond, but she certainly wouldn't start it.
"So, how long has it been going on?" Lavender turned and stared at Hermione in amazement.
"A few months." Hermione smiled a little.
"How far have you gone? Have you done it yet?" Pavarti asked eagerly.
"No. We haven't gone that far yet. Not for a while." Hermione shook her head.
"How did it happen?"
"Is he a good kisser?"
"Boxers of briefs?"
"What does his room look like?"
"What does he look like after a shower?"
"What shampoo does he use?"
"Have you ever seen him in just a towel?"
"Have you ever seen him naked?"
"What does he think of your room?"
"Have you ever thought about. . ."
"Come on girls, slow down. Breathe." Ron interrupted the now pestering girls.
"But we want to know everything." Lavender protested.
"Why? So you can go and repeat it to the entire school? Just let the woman finish her breakfast for crying out loud." Ron shook his head at the two girls.
The groaned and rolled their eyes. Then, deciding that sticking around any longer was pointless, they left. Hermione laughed and then mouthed a thank you to Ron, who smiled in return. Shortly after, Draco gave her the signal and they got up to leave.
