Chapter 6: The next day

Hermone woke up the following day in a very happy mood. She just couldn't stop thinking about the night before. She got dressed and went downstairs. In the common room she met Harry and Ron. Then Harry asked, "Hermione, what's happened that you're so happy?" But Hermione decided it was best not to answer, yet. They headed towards the Great Hall, where Ginny joined them.

"Today your awfully happy!" Ginny told Hermione as they were almost done eating. And Hermione began to tell Ginny everything that had happened yesterday. Detention, the kiss, the Great Hall. Ginny couldn't believe she was hearing. Ginny and Hermione were like sisters nowadays. And when Hermione finished, Ginny's mouth was left open.

"I'm so happy for you!!" Ginny cried.

"Thanks!" said Hermione.

"I would say you guys would make a great couple!" Ginny told Hermione.

"Who would make a great couple?" Ron joined in.

"No one!!" Hermione and Ginny replied at once.

They all went to their first lesson. Since it was Tuesday Harry, Ron, and Hermione headed outside to Herbology and Ginny headed to Care of Magical Creatures. Before departing Harry kissed Ginny.

At Herbology Professor Sprout had brought yet again, baby mandrakes. Since Herbology was Neville's favorite subject he did the best in class. Hermione even, asked Neville for a bit of help. Mostly through the class Hermione was daydreaming about Draco. "He is just soo fine!" she thought. And she just couldn't wait until detention that evening.

For Draco, his first class was History of Magic. Which was the most boring subject. So all Draco did through class was daydream of none other than, Hermione. He was so madly in love. He just couldn't wait for detention, where he would be alone with her again. But then again, did he trust himself to be alone with Hermione? He had no idea what he might do.

"Draco! Yoohoo class is over!!" said Pansy as she clicked her fingers in front of his face. She sat down and said, "You've been acting awfully strange these couple of days. It seems you don't want me anymore." she said as she put her hand up his shirt. Draco said, "Your know what Parkinson, why don't you stop wasting your time!" and he left, leaving her all alone in the classroom.

After lunch, as Harry, Ron, and Hermione rushed over to Potions, Hermione caught a glimpse of Draco. And the expression on her face told Draco that she couldn't wait for that evening. During the class, Draco kept getting distracted from his potion and looking at Hermione. "She is so sexy." He thought as he watched Hermione make her potion.

At dinnertime Hermione tried to eat very fast just to get to detention. After a while Draco got up from the Slytherin table and headed towards Hermione at the Gryffindor table. Harry and Ron saw Draco heading towards them and took out their wands. Hermione told them to put their wands away. Draco came and bent towards Hermione's ear and whispered, "Can't wait 'till detention. See you later." As Draco was saying this, a smile crept over both their faces. Then they both looked into each other's eyes closely, fighting the urge to kiss each other.or more. Then Draco turned towards Harry and Ron and said, "Potter, Weasley." with a nod and left. Draco did not leave towards the Slytherin table, but toward the Great Hall doors.

"What was THAT all about??!" exclaimed Ron and Harry together.

"Oh, nothing. Well I have to go to detention now. See you later." and she also headed out.

Harry and Ron gave each other a worried look. "She has been acting very strange lately." said Ron.
