Chapter 5: To kiss or not to kiss?
By Friday Hermione was going crazy with the work load she had. On top of the homework she had for her classes, she had been told by Dumbledore that Draco and herself were in charge of the yule ball, end of the year feast, and the party for the graduating 7th years. Even though it was still months away she decided to get a jump start on it. With all her head duties and studding in the library she hadn't seen much of Draco since Monday when he came to her room. She wasn't about to start complaining about his lack of torment any time soon.
Hermione layed on her back on her bed, staring at the starry enchanted ceiling, listening to Metallica on her small CD played for the third time this week. For some reason she was just in the mood for it.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
A light rapping came from her chamber door.
"Its open" Hermione didn't bother to move.
Draco entered the room and stood at the end of her bed. Hermione was laying with her hair sprawled out over the pillow. Only two buttons, over her breast, on her white button down shirt held it closed exposing her silky stomach and her shorts were more like underwear riding low on her hips and far up her thighs revealing her smooth mile long legs. For a moment Draco was held speechless as he stared.
"Are you feeling alright?" Draco asked after a long silence.
Hermione lent forward and began crawling across her bed like a tigress ready to leap on its prey. She stepped off the bed, inches from him. Her could smell her sweet lavender scent.
"First a compliment and now concern, whats becoming of you Malfoy? She turned on her heals after she spoke and walked to her CD played to turn it off.
"Like I said before, don't read too much into it. I just wanted to make sure you weren't ill, so I didn't have to do dorm checks myself."
"Uh-huh..." Hermione decided not to turn the CD off, but instead clicked it back a few songs to 'Nothing Else Matters'. As the guitar cords played she walked back over to Draco who just stared at her. She hadn't been able to get him out of her mind all week
**************************************
Draco couldn't take it any more. Since Monday he hadn't been able to stop thinking about how wonderful she had looked that night. He wanted to taste her luscious pink lips and explore every inch of her body. He hated himself for wanting it, but hated it even more because there was nothing he could do about it. He had avoided her all week, but even that hadn't driven her from his thoughts. Now she stood before him barely dressed, and he still couldn't have her. She'd probably cure him for even thinking of her in this manner. He couldn't blame her, after all he had put her through. How do you tell the person you thought you hated, that you never really hated them at all but rather were jealous.
"Let me grab my robe, then we can do checks" Hermione said softly as she walked past him.
Without thinking, Draco reached out and grabbed her arm before she was out of his reach. turning her around he pulled her in close, resting his other hand in the small of her back. Letting go of her arm he cupped her cheek in his palm. He gently pressed his lips to hers.
***************************************
Hermione didn't know what was going on. All of a sudden she felt Draco's hand grip her arm, and before she knew it, she was pressed up against his strong body. She felt his hand in the small of her back as she stared confusedly into his grey eyes. His hand caressing her cheek sent shivers down. Then his lips were on hers, and she panicked, lifting her arms, she pushed forcefully off his chest breaking their embrace.
****************************************
Draco felt like she had just smacked him across the face as she stared at him with a total look of discuss. It didn't last long because she had grabbed her robe and was already downstairs before Draco could think of anything to say. Draco walked over to the shiny box and pushed every button to try and get that racket to stop so he could think. what did he expect; after 6 years of tormenting her she was just going to jump into his arms, now that he actually wanted her? She was too smart for that.
****************************************
Hermione scolded herself all through checks.* He kissed you, you stupid git and what do u do? you push him away.* Hermione told herself as she wandered the halls avoiding going back to the dorm until she was sure Draco was asleep.
"Granger, why are you wondering the halls at such an hour?" Snapes voice cut through her thoughts.
"I'm doing my checks, Professor Snape." Hermione lied.
"'Lights out' was over 2 hours ago. Get back to your room."
Hermione turned and headed in the opposite direction. Upon entering the common room she found a note, it read:
I'm Sorry
Draco Malfoy
Wow! Hermione thought as she folded the paper and stuck it in her robe. An apology...Maybe Draco wasn't as bad as her and her friends thought.
