For the first half hour Draco completely refused to even look at Hermione. She was getting pretty annoyed, because she looked kind of stupid talking and throwing flirty looks at somone who wasn't even watching. She decided to try one more time. He looked bored enough to die.
"Malfoy, do you want a game of travel Yatzee??" Draco sureptitiously took a glance up the isle. Millicent Bulstrode was snoring with her mouth open and her head leaned back on the seat. Blaise Zabini was flipping through the latest issue of Cosmo Girl and seemed quite enraptured.
"Okay."
After the first couple of games, Draco started to really get the hang of travel Yatzee, and began to relax, and actually have fun.
"AHA! Got you! Oh yeah! I won! Uh Huh!" He burst out as he finally won. Twenty heads swiveled towards him. He turned red and slouched in his seat.
Suddenly, the overhead system came on. "Attention passengers. This is your pilot speaking. It seems as though we've traveled into a rather large weather system, and my be experiancing some...turbulence."
There was a large squeek from Seamus, as the news finally registered. As if on cue, the plane started pitching and reeling slightly from side to side. There were several relieved sighs as packaged dinner after packaged dinner was thrown to the side. These was followed by several indignant squeeks as suitcase after suitcase fell off the overhead racks. Finally it seemed to be over.
"Attention passengers. This is your pilot speaking. That seems to be the last of the turbulence...Oh wait! It looks like here comes some more... turbulence."
Again, the cabin began to pitch and reel, only this time much more violently. People were being thrown around, and some of the lights went out. Hermione felt herself falling over. She tried to stop herself, but it was no use. She eventually landed on top of something soft and lumpy with one hand in a packaged dinner. The turbulence seemed to be finished, but the lights still weren't back on. Aparently she had landed on a person, for they apeared to be shoving her off.
"Hey!"
"Granger?"
"Oh, Malfoy." Fireworks were going off in her head. She was on top of Draco Malfoy, resident slyth... oh forget it. She was so close she could smell his aftershave, cologne, deodorent, and shampoo. Smelt a bit like the perfume counter at the mall. Mmm, the mall. Meanwhile much the same train of thought was going through Draco's mind.
"Is that your wand poking me in the stomach, or are you just glad to see me?" 'Hehee. I'm evil.' thought Hermione.
"Um, actually it is my wand."
"Oh... Your 'wand' ?"
"No, my wand, the one I use to hex people who bug me." 'God I'm and idiot.' thought Draco.
"Oh." Hermione abruptly turned to get up.
"Wait!" Draco whispered.
