Thanks to everyone who reviewed so far. I love you guys. Hehe. So you
all enjoying this fic? Good. If you love Draco please raise your hand.
'Raises hand.' I think I like him this way. Though what about Harry?
Hermione still has feelings for him. Shouldn't' she follow her heart? She
should definitely follow her heart. Hmm. Wonder why she's thinking of
Draco.
Hehe. Lets move on.

The weeks passed and Hermione was getting ready to go to Hogsmeade. Since she was the head girl she was allowed to go earlier than everyone else and she was grateful.
"So are you ready to go?" Ginny asked. The three Gryfinndor girls were going to go early after getting permission from Dumbledore to pick out some knew things for Hermione. Draco had actually given her money to do so.
"Yep. I wonder what I should get." She asked her friends as they walked to the entrance.
"I think you should get black." Lavender said. "It's slimming and it's absolutely sexy."
"Lace." Ginny said. "Mum always says lace and velvet are a very good combination to attract men."
"Well I'm not just getting underwear you know." Hermione said laughing. Harry and Ron would be there in about two hours so they had to work quickly.
"Chiffon." Ginny said smiling. "Again velvet, silk, leather, satin, denim maybe some cotton."
"So many possibilities. Well what did your 'teacher' tell you to get?" Lavender teased.
"He told me to get anything that was teasing. To get some casual clothes too. Couldn't go around everywhere in sexy outfits."
"Hello girls." They looked up and saw their teacher Miss Averieale with her son. Little Steven was in a little baby carriage and was happily sucking on a bottle.
"Hello ma'am." Ginny said smiling.
"What are you girls up to?"
"We're buy clothes for Hermione."
"Really." Medea knew what they were talking about and made a teasing comment. "You know Hermione, Malfoy men tend to go for crushed silk."
With a very noticeable blush Hermione nodded. "Thank you."
"You want some help girls?"
"Sure." They said and Medea started helping them out. They were amazed that a teacher could be so easy about a situation like this. Especially when all the others would have been yelling by now.
As if to read their thoughts she grinned. "Your private lives are none of my concern. If it is affecting the school which it isn't I would have to say something but to my knowledge you haven't broken any rules Hermione."
"No." Hermione said. She was telling the truth. Head girl and boy had permission to be out late checking the halls. Sure they weren't exactly checking the halls but they were only bending the rules not breaking them.
"Then there isn't any reason to tell on my cousin." She said. "Listen I have nothing against places like this but if you're looking for something to suit your body type I would go across the road to a small shop. This shop is good for you're under wear though."
"Right."
"So what are you going to get Hermione?" Lavender as they got to the nightgowns and underwear.
'I. I don't know."
"Well then you better get into that change room and we'll pick things out for you.' Medea said placing Steven in a corner. He happily started floating his bottle.
After a bit of pushing and persuading Hermione found herself in a change room waiting for whatever the three women outside were finding.
The first article of clothing came to her and she saw it was a very light green bra and panty set. It was satin with a small lace border around it.
"Should be your size. Lets see if it looks good." Lavender said going back to look at things.
Nervously he got change and came out. The three women looked at her and made a face. The color was too light for her complexion but the style suited her.
"Darker." They said and went back to looking. Hermione went back in and was grateful no one else entered the store. They gave her darker sets and they were now happy with it. She tried on nightgowns. Long and short. A few bathing suits and Medea handed her some lingerie for her to try on.
"I can't come out in this." Hermione said.
"Why not Hermione? Come on. Come out." Ginny said.
"Uh no I can't." She insisted. If the three women could see her they'd see how red she was.
"Come on Hermione. Just come out." Lavender insisted. "We're all straight women here."
"Ok." She came out and they all gasped. The outfit was a very light shade of pink. Outlined her curves and was transparent from the middle and was very light towards the top and bottom. It reached only half way down to her knee.
"Perfect." They told her.
Hermione felt more comfortable now as they walked towards a classier shop that had models of dresses and outfits.
"I only see one of everything here." Lavender said.
"That's because here we do everything by measurements." An exotic looking woman said coming out from the back. "Can I help you ladies?"
Medea took the railing, as she knew how to handle these women.
"Yes. This young lady would like to buy a new wardrobe." She said.
"Does she have an account with us?" She said looking at Hermione as if she was nothing.
"No not at the moment. We'd like to set one up for her under another family account."
"Her name and the account you want her placed in." The lady said with a small smirk. She knew this girl couldn't' possibly be able to buy anything and after she looked at her records she would be able to send them out.
"Her name is Hermione Granger and the account is to be placed with the Averieale family."
"Averieale?" The woman asked stunned.
'Yes." Hermione pulled her teacher aside and whispered to her.
"I can't use your name. It isn't right."
"Look Hermione. My cousin gave you money. You wouldn't be shopping if he didn't. You can't shop here unless you have an account and by the look of this woman she was about ready to throw us out. You can't use the Malfoy name but you can use mine."
"You don't mind?"
"No. Besides you've earned it. Think of this as a favor to my cousin."
"Thanks."
"Well ladies where should we start?" The woman asked kindly. Hermione had to think it was funny how people changed at the sound of money.
"Casual." She said stepping forward. If Draco wanted her to have this then she was going to take full advantage of it.
"Of course follow me Hermione my dear." The woman said escorting her towards a couple of seats. "Would you like tea or something to eat?"

"What in the world is taking them so long?" Harry asked Ron as he walked towards the ice cream parlor. Ron shrugged and looked at his watch.
"They're late. They're never late." Ron commented kicking at the dirt.
They had got there three hours ago and had planned to meet the girls at noon. It was now one thirty and they still were nowhere to be seen.
"Well, well. If it isn't Potter and his little sidekick." The sound of Draco's voice snapped them back to reality and the turned to see him.
"What do you want Malfoy." Ron spat.
"Waiting for some friends. What are you doing here?"
'None of your damn business."
"Wait Ron. Malfoy by any chance have you seen Hermione?" Harry asked calmly hold Ron back.
"Nope. Haven't seen her. Maybe she finally woke up and realized she didn't' want to hang out with you two." He said laughing. He knew where she was. She was out shopping with her friends with the money he'd given her. Sure it was strange for him to give her money but she was his project. She had to be perfect and perfection did cost some money.
"Hermione, Ginny, Lavender over here." He turned around and saw the three girls walking towards them carrying a lot of bags and a few boxes.
'Will have to steal her away to talk to her.' He thought as his friends walked up to him.
"Sorry we're late. We just got so caught up in everything." Hermione said breathlessly.
"Well we can see that." Harry said looking at the bags. All three girls looked different. Like their faces had been cleaned with oils instead of water.
"Ginny what did you do to your face?" Ron asked his little sister. She smiled.
"Mud pack, avocado, passion fruit, cucumbers and apples." She said. He looked at her like she was crazy.
"We were trying out the new creams. See." Lavender said holding up two bags full of the stuff.
"Women." Harry and Ron said at the same time. Though Harry had to admit Hermione's face looked that much more enticing than before.
"So are we getting some ice cream or not. If we're not I have homework back at Hogwarts and I can leave now." Hermione said standing with a hip slightly to the side.
"Ice cream." Ron said leading the way. Harry followed behind Hermione watching her hips move. Draco noticed this and smirked. Hermione wasn't' purposely flirting but Harry was convinced she was.
Another part of him though wasn't happy about this. He was pleased though when Hermione turned around and asked why Harry was walking behind her. He assumed it was that since Harry then walked up in front of her looking a little red.
He watched as they all sat down and ordered their ice creams. He kept watching pretending to be talking with his friends until Hermione finished her strawberry flavored ice cream.
"Excuse me." He said and walked towards the parlor. He ordered a chocolate mint and walked past Hermione's table without a single word. He looked at her for a second and walked out.
Hermione excused herself from her friends and walked outside towards the bathroom's
"What was that all about?" Ron asked staring at his best friend.
"It's a girl thing." Lavender said. She hadn't seen Draco and neither had Ginny.
Meanwhile at the side of the bathrooms.
"So did you buy everything you could afford?" Draco asked leaning against the wall.
'Yes. Miss Averieale helped as well." She said.
"You look good." Draco complimented taking a look at her face.
"Thanks I think."
"I gave you a compliment. Accept it without any reservations." He said taking another lick of his ice cream.
"Draco we both know you aren't here to ask how my day was what do you want?" She asked him with an extended eyebrow. Apparently his cousin had taken her to get them shaped.
""This." He pulled her close and kissed her roughly. His free hand went around her waist and his tongue darted into her hot little mouth.
Her arms instinctively started to explore his back, shoulder, and neck, even his butt. By now Draco was more than a little aroused. He'd promised himself he wouldn't show Hermione anything really sexual till the vacations. He needed two weeks alone with her.
He didn't forget that they had field trips but he'd spoken to his cousin and she'd told him that after speaking to the parents they would all be going home and would have to go directly to the places they were instructed to.
Draco had every intention of staying in school for those two weeks since he really didn't' want to go home. Hermione had mentioned her parents going away for a convention so she would stay at school as well. The perfect time for him to show her what a goddess she could be.
Could he keep this promise to himself though? He wanted her. There was possessiveness in his touches now.
He could take her right now and she's gratefully accept but he didn't' want her to regret sex. On the contrary. He wanted her to enjoy it to the fullest. What was the point of him having her like this if she was going to reject what sex had to offer her?
"Draco." She murmured into his mouth. That caused him to moan. The way she'd just said his name. So sensual and needy.
"Shh. It's ok baby. Soon." He whispered and pulled away from her. Her eyes were whimpering and he could see that in those short weeks he had her. Maybe not her heart but that didn't' matter right now. Her body and lust was his.
"Draco." She said again pulling him back. He accepted her kisses but shook his head.
"Not yet. Your golden boy and your friends are out there. Besides be more fun once you're all finished." He said brushing his fingers against her cheek almost lovingly.
Hermione nodded and straightened herself up. She gave Draco another kiss and left to rejoin her friends. He stood there his ice cream lay there on the floor and he gave a loud sigh.
He didn't know how he felt but he knew that Hermione Granger wasn't' just a one nightstand. He was training her to be his. Preparing her for something she would never forget. Something he could only offer her. Something she would only ever allow him to do.
He was going to take her body, mind and her soul. That would be his payment for what he'd made her.

"Right is everyone here?" It was a Saturday. The whole seventh grade was there. All looking quite curious. It was the first time the whole grade had come together for muggle class and they were all dressed casually.
"Today we're going to learn a bit of muggle combat." Mr. Averieale said. He was dressed in a pair of old pants and a sweatshirt. His sister was dressed in a tank top that was white and a set of green pants. Both wore joggers.
"This will be the last physical education you'll all have until the next term. From now on you will be learning cultural, historical with me and with Mr. Averieale you will be learning genetics, physiology and pop culture."
Professor Snape and McGonagoll sat on the side watching the younger teachers. Dumbledore passed by and asked how they were doing.
"The students are paying attention to every word." McGonagoll said.
"Good, good. They've taken an interest. I see that both Deo and Medea are very good at focusing their attention."
"Right. Silver and white here. Orange and purple over to the right." Medea commanded in an almost military form. When everyone was in their place she ordered the girls on the left and the boys on the right.
"Ok now we will give you each a number. You will go to the assigned number and sit there until you are told otherwise. When the whistle blows you will go to the next activity. This will go on till you finish the circuit. Miss Averieale and myself will show you each of them."
"There are six stages. You are to complete every one of them. We're watching and points will be taken from anyone who can't act civilized. At the end of each stage you will go to the one to your right. You will answer the questions on the parchments provided for you."
The fist one ha two punching bags. Medea and Deo shoed them a very simple routine that they had to follow. The next was a blue mat and they were to practice their flexibility.
The third and forth were basic defensive moves if you got attacked. Medea stood with Deo behind her. She tied to flip him and ended up throwing her brother across the floor.
"Sorry." She said laughing. The other was to defend yourself with your hands.
The fifth held sets of padded gloves. Deo limped back to his class and explained that one person would hold the gloves while the other kicked them. They would hold the gloves higher at each kick
"The finally circuit is most important. You can know how to fight and defend yourself but you much be able to block. Here your partner and yourself will bock each other's moves. You can use legs, arms, hands and feet. Be careful not to hurt each other. We don't' want you all in the hospital wing."
They all laughed.
"Ok. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6." In the end there was an even twelve in each station.
"Hermione." Harry said happily. They were in the same group while Ron was with Lavender and Pansy.
"Hey Harry" she smiled. She looked over at Draco who was also in their group.
"Aright since you are group three I am going to show you this once. Mr. Malfoy, Miss Granger? Would you please step forward?" Deo asked.
Harry looked on as Hermione got in front of Draco. He saw that Draco got a little too close for comfort in his eyes but Hermione didn't flinch. As if she was used to this.
"Ok Ready Hermione. Just pull your weight forward and bring Draco here onto the mat. Try not to throw him across the floor."
The group laughed and Hermione put all her strength into it. It took three goes but she finally got him over the mat. The girls all cheered. Even the ones in Slytherin.
"Not bad Granger." Draco commented then sat back down. Hermione was very pleased with herself and without realizing it she sat next to Draco. Harry noticed this but took it as innocently as possible. No way was Hermione with Draco.
"Right there is one thing. The person you're next to right now will be your partner for this. I'm sorry if you decided to stand next to someone you don't like but think of it this way. You get to flip them."
Harry was fuming red. He'd wanted Hermione as his partner. He was now stuck with a girl from Ravenclaw.
"Ok please don't' hurt each other."
"Ready Harry?"
"Yeah."
He watched as Hermione laughed trying to flip Draco again but he was stubborn this time.
"Not happening Hermione." Draco teased in his usual tone but he was casual.
"Oh yeah. Watch." She used her strength to flip him onto the map laughing. "I told you. I can be strong."
"Uh hu. I see that Granger" He said with a smirk. "My turn."
They were having fun. Everyone. Well except for Harry who was watching the two. Not even the Slytherin's seemed to mind. They were doing what everyone assumed they were best at. Fighting. They were physically arguing and it was enjoyable to them.
"You show her Draco." A Slytherin laughed before he was flipped. "Wow."
"Ok you ready Granger." She nodded from behind him and he flipped her onto the mat. She was laughing so hard that she couldn't breath for a moment.
The guys all excluding Harry cheered him on. The girls all booed.
Medea blew the whistle after five more minutes and they changed. Hermione finished writing down the notes and got ready for a little hand to hand with her secret teacher.
"Nevil please be careful." Deo called out as the punching bag almost knocked the poor boy onto the ground. "Those things weight a ton and if you get knocked out you'll be out for at least a week."
The lessons went on and Harry was getting angrier by the minute. Hermione was having fun with Draco Malfoy. He would give her grins. He wouldn't smile at her he'd just smirk and grin but these were not menacing. He didn't once call her mud blood and she didn't' insult him like usual. They were at the last circuit now and were about finished.
"Come on granger you can do better than that." Draco said good-naturedly. He kept his sly edge though.
"Watch me." She said. She forced her leg to completely straighten and he watched as she flexed her body up so she was holding herself on one hand and one foot.
Draco leaned forward doing a complete handstand and whispered into her ear. "That flexibility of yours will be good in bed."
The forced Hermione to fall on her back gasping. Draco smirked and laughed at her going back onto his feet. She have him a small grin and got up.
The last whistle blew and they all gathered back with their teachers.
"Right you'll all done very well. I want those parchments finished by Monday and everyone will be expected to hand them in. You can all go now. Have a good day." Medea said smiling. Everyone left to go lie down. They were exhausted.
"Oh I just want to lie down and never wake up." Ron said holding his knees. His partner had been a little too enthusiastic.
"I just want to lie on my stomach and I don't' think I can feel my back." Hermione said holing her butt.
"Well I guess Malfoy could. Or should I say Draco?" Harry spat.
"What are you talking about?" She asked
"You and Malfoy were acting very 'friendly'." He said crossing his arms.
"Oh Harry we were doing school work. Is it my fault I'm good at defense and good at kicking his ass?" She said calmly. Draco's attitude had somewhat rubbed off on her.
Ron just laughed. He had tried to think it was innocent and the way she'd said it made it seem all that more childlike.
Harry was not so convinced though.
"I don't trust him Hermione. I've never trusted him and all of a sudden you get all comfy with him. Why didn't you come sit with me instead of him?"
"Harry are you jealous? This may come as a shock to you but Draco Malfoy and me can actually have a decent conversation once in a while. There was enough room to sit there so that's why I sat there. You don't dictate who I do or don't speak to."
Harry growled lowly and stared into her eyes. She was stronger now. She was in depended but completely dependent on Draco. She took her actions from him. She loved Harry but she didn't want him to dominate her like this. She didn't want 'Harry' to control her life.
"Stay away from him Hermione. He's trouble."
"How dare you. After all this time you suddenly think it's ok for you to tell me to stay away from someone? You have someone to be jealous over Harry. You made your choice. You chose someone else. Now if you excuse me Harry. I'm going to go to my dorm room now. I'll talk to you later Ron."
With that she turned and walked away. From a corner Draco watched. He'd been following Hermione since they left class. He was a little tired but he had this urge to keep an eye out for his little kitten.
He hadn't expected her to act that way and he was pleased. There was more to that girl than her friends gave her credit for.
"Harry what's wrong?" Ron asked. "I know that she's acting a little different now but you didn't' have to snap at her. You know that Hermione loves fighting with Malfoy just as much as she loves her books. No need to get jealous."
"Why won't she accept me anymore? I told her that I broke up with Kiyo but she insists that I'm still with her. Why wont' she take to me?"
"Harry you got to admit. You're not exactly using the right approach on her. She's not exactly your ordinary girl. You got to be a little smoother with your approach. Otherwise you'll just scare her."
'You're right Ron. I'm going about this the wrong way. I got to be more civil about the way I react. I'm just paranoid right now. Come on."
Draco watched as the two walked away. No it wasn't that Hermione wasn't taking to the approach it was just the fact that now she was rethinking who she wanted. Draco knew very well that Hermione still was in love with Harry but Harry had waited a little too long.
He walked back to the head girl/boy room.

"You don't mind?"
"No. Besides you've earned it. Think of this as a favor to my cousin."

"Well ladies where should we start?" The woman asked kindly. Hermione had to think it was funny how people changed at the sound of money.

"What in the world is taking them so long?" Harry asked Ron as he walked towards the ice cream parlor. Ron shrugged and looked at his watch.
"They're late. They're never late." Ron commented kicking at the dirt.

Draco had every intention of staying in school for those two weeks since he really didn't' want to go home. Hermione had mentioned her parents going away for a convention so she would stay at school as well. The perfect time for him to show her what a goddess she could be.
Could he keep this promise to himself though? He wanted her. There was possessiveness in his touches now.
He could take her right now and she's gratefully accept but he didn't' want her to regret sex. On the contrary. He wanted her to enjoy it to the fullest. What was the point of him having her like this if she was going to reject what sex had to offer her?
"Draco." She murmured into his mouth. That caused him to moan. The way she'd just said his name. So sensual and needy.
"Shh. It's ok baby. Soon." He whispered and pulled away from her. Her eyes were whimpering and he could see that in those short weeks he had her. Maybe not her heart but that didn't' matter right now. Her body and lust was his.
"Draco." She said again pulling him back. He accepted her kisses but shook his head.
"Not yet. Your golden boy and your friends are out there. Besides be more fun once you're all finished." He said brushing his fingers against her cheek almost lovingly.
Hermione nodded and straightened herself up. She gave Draco another kiss and left to rejoin her friends. He stood there his ice cream lay there on the floor and he gave a loud sigh.
He didn't know how he felt but he knew that Hermione Granger wasn't' just a one nightstand. He was training her to be his. Preparing her for something she would never forget. Something he could only offer her. Something she would only ever allow him to do.
He was going to take her body, mind and her soul. That would be his payment for what he'd made her.

"Right is everyone here?" It was a Saturday. The whole seventh grade was there. All looking quite curious. It was the first time the whole grade had come together for muggle class and they were all dressed casually.
"Today we're going to learn a bit of muggle combat." Mr. Averieale said. He was dressed in a pair of old pants and a sweatshirt. His sister was dressed in a tank top that was white and a set of green pants. Both wore joggers.
"This will be the last physical education you'll all have until the next term. From now on you will be learning cultural, historical with me and with Mr. Averieale you will be learning genetics, physiology and pop culture."
Professor Snape and McGonagoll sat on the side watching the younger teachers. Dumbledore passed by and asked how they were doing.
"The students are paying attention to every word." McGonagoll said.
"Good, good. They've taken an interest. I see that both Deo and Medea are very good at focusing their attention."
"Right. Silver and white here. Orange and purple over to the right." Medea commanded in an almost military form. When everyone was in their place she ordered the girls on the left and the boys on the right.
"Ok now we will give you each a number. You will go to the assigned number and sit there until you are told otherwise. When the whistle blows you will go to the next activity. This will go on till you finish the circuit. Miss Averieale and myself will show you each of them."
"There are six stages. You are to complete every one of them. We're watching and points will be taken from anyone who can't act civilized. At the end of each stage you will go to the one to your right. You will answer the questions on the parchments provided for you."
The fist one ha two punching bags. Medea and Deo shoed them a very simple routine that they had to follow. The next was a blue mat and they were to practice their flexibility.
The third and forth were basic defensive moves if you got attacked. Medea stood with Deo behind her. She tied to flip him and ended up throwing her brother across the floor.
"Sorry." She said laughing. The other was to defend yourself with your hands.
The fifth held sets of padded gloves. Deo limped back to his class and explained that one person would hold the gloves while the other kicked them. They would hold the gloves higher at each kick
"The finally circuit is most important. You can know how to fight and defend yourself but you much be able to block. Here your partner and yourself will bock each other's moves. You can use legs, arms, hands and feet. Be careful not to hurt each other. We don't' want you all in the hospital wing."
They all laughed.
"Ok. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6." In the end there was an even twelve in each station.
"Hermione." Harry said happily. They were in the same group while Ron was with Lavender and Pansy.
"Hey Harry" she smiled. She looked over at Draco who was also in their group.
"Aright since you are group three I am going to show you this once. Mr. Malfoy, Miss Granger? Would you please step forward?" Deo asked.
Harry looked on as Hermione got in front of Draco. He saw that Draco got a little too close for comfort in his eyes but Hermione didn't flinch. As if she was used to this.
"Ok Ready Hermione. Just pull your weight forward and bring Draco here onto the mat. Try not to throw him across the floor."
The group laughed and Hermione put all her strength into it. It took three goes but she finally got him over the mat. The girls all cheered. Even the ones in Slytherin.
"Not bad Granger." Draco commented then sat back down. Hermione was very pleased with herself and without realizing it she sat next to Draco. Harry noticed this but took it as innocently as possible. No way was Hermione with Draco.
"Right there is one thing. The person you're next to right now will be your partner for this. I'm sorry if you decided to stand next to someone you don't like but think of it this way. You get to flip them."
Harry was fuming red. He'd wanted Hermione as his partner. He was now stuck with a girl from Ravenclaw.
"Ok please don't' hurt each other."
"Ready Harry?"
"Yeah."
He watched as Hermione laughed trying to flip Draco again but he was stubborn this time.
"Not happening Hermione." Draco teased in his usual tone but he was casual.
"Oh yeah. Watch." She used her strength to flip him onto the map laughing. "I told you. I can be strong."
"Uh hu. I see that Granger" He said with a smirk. "My turn."
They were having fun. Everyone. Well except for Harry who was watching the two. Not even the Slytherin's seemed to mind. They were doing what everyone assumed they were best at. Fighting. They were physically arguing and it was enjoyable to them.
"You show her Draco." A Slytherin laughed before he was flipped. "Wow."
"Ok you ready Granger." She nodded from behind him and he flipped her onto the mat. She was laughing so hard that she couldn't breath for a moment.
The guys all excluding Harry cheered him on. The girls all booed.
Medea blew the whistle after five more minutes and they changed. Hermione finished writing down the notes and got ready for a little hand to hand with her secret teacher.
"Nevil please be careful." Deo called out as the punching bag almost knocked the poor boy onto the ground. "Those things weight a ton and if you get knocked out you'll be out for at least a week."
The lessons went on and Harry was getting angrier by the minute. Hermione was having fun with Draco Malfoy. He would give her grins. He wouldn't smile at her he'd just smirk and grin but these were not menacing. He didn't once call her mud blood and she didn't' insult him like usual. They were at the last circuit now and were about finished.
"Come on granger you can do better than that." Draco said good-naturedly. He kept his sly edge though.
"Watch me." She said. She forced her leg to completely straighten and he watched as she flexed her body up so she was holding herself on one hand and one foot.
Draco leaned forward doing a complete handstand and whispered into her ear. "That flexibility of yours will be good in bed."
The forced Hermione to fall on her back gasping. Draco smirked and laughed at her going back onto his feet. She have him a small grin and got up.
The last whistle blew and they all gathered back with their teachers.
"Right you'll all done very well. I want those parchments finished by Monday and everyone will be expected to hand them in. You can all go now. Have a good day." Medea said smiling. Everyone left to go lie down. They were exhausted.
"Oh I just want to lie down and never wake up." Ron said holding his knees. His partner had been a little too enthusiastic.
"I just want to lie on my stomach and I don't' think I can feel my back." Hermione said holing her butt.
"Well I guess Malfoy could. Or should I say Draco?" Harry spat.
"What are you talking about?" She asked
"You and Malfoy were acting very 'friendly'." He said crossing his arms.
"Oh Harry we were doing school work. Is it my fault I'm good at defense and good at kicking his ass?" She said calmly. Draco's attitude had somewhat rubbed off on her.
Ron just laughed. He had tried to think it was innocent and the way she'd said it made it seem all that more childlike.
Harry was not so convinced though.
"I don't trust him Hermione. I've never trusted him and all of a sudden you get all comfy with him. Why didn't you come sit with me instead of him?"
"Harry are you jealous? This may come as a shock to you but Draco Malfoy and me can actually have a decent conversation once in a while. There was enough room to sit there so that's why I sat there. You don't dictate who I do or don't speak to."
Harry growled lowly and stared into her eyes. She was stronger now. She was in depended but completely dependent on Draco. She took her actions from him. She loved Harry but she didn't want him to dominate her like this. She didn't want 'Harry' to control her life.
"Stay away from him Hermione. He's trouble."
"How dare you. After all this time you suddenly think it's ok for you to tell me to stay away from someone? You have someone to be jealous over Harry. You made your choice. You chose someone else. Now if you excuse me Harry. I'm going to go to my dorm room now. I'll talk to you later Ron."
With that she turned and walked away. From a corner Draco watched. He'd been following Hermione since they left class. He was a little tired but he had this urge to keep an eye out for his little kitten.
He hadn't expected her to act that way and he was pleased. There was more to that girl than her friends gave her credit for.
"Harry what's wrong?" Ron asked. "I know that she's acting a little different now but you didn't' have to snap at her. You know that Hermione loves fighting with Malfoy just as much as she loves her books. No need to get jealous."
"Why won't she accept me anymore? I told her that I broke up with Kiyo but she insists that I'm still with her. Why wont' she take to me?"
"Harry you got to admit. You're not exactly using the right approach on her. She's not exactly your ordinary girl. You got to be a little smoother with your approach. Otherwise you'll just scare her."
'You're right Ron. I'm going about this the wrong way. I got to be more civil about the way I react. I'm just paranoid right now. Come on."
Draco watched as the two walked away. No it wasn't that Hermione wasn't taking to the approach it was just the fact that now she was rethinking who she wanted. Draco knew very well that Hermione still was in love with Harry but Harry had waited a little too long.
He walked back to the head girl/boy room.
