what happened before:
"Would you like me to show you?" he asked.
Hermione gave him a confused look but nodded. He held out his hand and Hermione placed her's in his. "How warm his hand's feel in my cold hands." Hermione thought. Next to her Draco was just thinking the same thing. "How warm her hands feel in my cold hands." And behind their retreating silluettes, the sun sank lower and lower into the horizon, as if telling of a new adventure that was about to happen....

Chapter 5: Truth or Dare
Harry and Ryan were talking quietly in a corner of the common room. They had formed an alliance to work together to try to figure out who was the mole.
"Don't you think that it's kinda suspicious that Brandon didn't keep the exemption?" Harry asked.
"Yah, but why do you think he gave Ginny the exemption? Do you think Ginny knew what was going to happen and she told him something about it?" Ryan thought outloud.
"Hm, that does seem kinda suspicious. What about Oliver? He was one of the first people to lose the memory game. Plus he hasn't really teamed up with anybody. (A/N- awww, poor Oliver! i'll b your partner!)" Harry said.
"Nah, it's a stupid stratagy to make people think that you're the mole without forming an alliance. What about Ron? He did kinda bad in the game today. He was the first one to lose." Ryan said.
"Nah, Ron has a bad memory. No idiot would want to count on Ron to fulfill the mole duties. No offence of course." Harry laughed.
"Hermione then. She was smart. And beautiful, may I add. She seems so innocent." Ryan said.
"Which would make her the perfect mole... Ryan you're a genius!" Harry exclaimed.
"What'd I do? All I said was that she's hot, smart, hot, kind and hot." Ryan grinned jokingly.
"Hey, watch it. That's my best friend you're talking about." Harry said matter-of-factly.
"Nevermind, I'm starting to sound like a crazed perverted freak. My father's the crazed one, not me." Ryan said as he wrote some mole info into his journal. Harry too went back to his journal.
"So what did everyone wear today?---------
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Draco led Hermione in front of the school, a familiar part of the school.
"Remember this place?" Draco asked.
"Yah, this was where you first called me mudblood." Hermione said quietly.
"Yah, I wanna say sorry for that." Draco said, walking a little away from her as she walked closely behind. It was now nighttime and stars scattered the sky above. Draco walked on a hill and then laid on the grass, staring up at the stars. Hermione stood there, not knowing what to do and then finally decided on laying right next to him.
"Draco?"
"Hmm?"
"Why are you sorry?"
Draco glanced over to her. There was wonder in her eyes. He could see that he could tell her everything. He wished he could just wrap her in his arms and kiss her like there was no tomorrow. To run away from all this with her. He saw in her eyes though, that he could answer her question.
"I didn't mean everything I said bad about you, Ron, Harry and everyone. I wish I could take back everything, but I can't. My father," he sighed from the memory. "My father was an evil man. All he wanted was power. And he knew the only way to power was through helping and pleasing the dark lord. He would've jumped off a cliff if it would please him. He would even... he would even abuse his own family." he sighed. Hermione's eyes widened, but she let him continue. She even put a supporting hand on top of his. "Whenever I disappointed him in any way, he would take out his anger at me. Crucio, Impero, Stupify... none of it hurts me now after years of it. On the summer going to 7th year, he abused me so bad, I had to run away. My mother didn't do shit. She stood aside just like a good wife and watched me suffer. That's why you didn't see me on the train. I stayed at Hogwarts the whole summer. I wanted to do good, not evil like my father. I saw what the dark side had done to him, that's the last place I wanted to be in. I told Dumbledore all of this and he understood. He helped me out and even trusted me into the Order of the Pheonix. I wanted to do good for the light side. I was tired of having to fallow all my dad's orders of being mean to kids and to you and to Harry. I was tired of living with such an evil last name. I wanted people to talk about my family without spitting. I'm sorry if I hurt you. I really, really am. Will you please forgive me?" Draco asked, looking into her eyes. Hermione's eyes searched Draco's eyes, as if seeing if he was truely sincere.
Draco then snorted, "You know, I understand if your questioning what I said. Why would evil little Malfoy suddenly seem so good? Is this a joke? You know, you're the first person I'm telling you this."
Hermione gave him a little smile, "Actually, that wasn't what I was thinking. I was actually thinking, why did we spend all those years fighting, when we could've been such good friends?"
Her question filled Draco's heart with relief. She forgave him. And maybe, one day, he could tell her how he really felt.
"Come on, lets head back. People are probably starting to wonder why we're gone and maybe are thinking if we are using protection." Hermione teased and they both laughed.
"I don't know, are we going to?" Draco shot back teasingly.
Hermione stopped walking backward for she tripped. "Are you serious?" she asked wide eyed. Draco gave a big laugh.
"No, come on now! We can't do that now, we have a game to play. Though I wouldn't really mind. After all, you have grown since we got out of school." Draco said, walking away and leaving Hermione sitting there dumbstruck.
"Was he just flirting with me?" Hermione thought as she dusted herself off and walked back to the common room.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Back in the common room, Dumbledore had called up Kathleen to his office.
"Hello Kathleen." he said.
"Hello Professor." she said back.
"Now Kathleen I understand you have journal number 7."
"Yes sir."
"Well, by choosing this journal, you have a chance to earn an exemption." he said. "Now, tonight after dinner, you will convince everyone else to play a game of truth or dare. For every person who does a truth, you get 10 galleons into the pot. For every dare, you add 50 galleons to the pot. If you can get 5 dares, and you may play along and count every thing you do, in 45 minutes after somebody does the first truth or dare, than you may get an exemption. You must not tell anybody about the challenge. Do you accept the challenge?" Dumbledore asked.
"Yes of course." they shook hands and then went back into the common room where everyone was just coming in for dinner.
"Ok everyone, let's eat." Dumbledore announced.
An hour later.....
"Hey everyone! Let's play an old fashioned game of truth or dare!" Kathleen said. Everyone agreed.
"Haha, this game brings back memories." Ginny laughed.
"Yah memories of our late night Gryffindor parties." Hermione laughed.
"Shh! Nobody else knows about that!" Oliver laughed along.
"Ok! I'll ask first! Brandon, truth or dare?" Kathleen asked.
"Truth."
"Sissy!" Kathleen coughed. "Ahem, sorry about that. Ok... if you had to kiss one person in this room, who would it be?"
Brandon blushed, "Nnymm"
"What? I didn't quite hear that, did you say Harry?" Hermione teased. Harry turned pale.
"Ginny!!!" Brandon yelled. Everyone burst out laughing.
"Ok--hehe-- Brandon, you can ask somebody." Kathleen said.
"Ok.. um... Harry, truth or dare?" he asked.
"Dare." Harry answered. He didn't want to be called a sissy by Kathleen.
"Ok, I dare you to kiss Ron. Act like you want it!" Brandon said. Harry paled but didn't say anything.
"Ahem, ok then." Harry started. "Ron! You have no idea how much I have wanted you!" he said dramatically.
"Oh Harry! I never knew you were gay!" Ron said back.
"Ron! I've wanted this for so long!" Harry said as he planted a kiss on Ron's lips. Right after, they started coughing and spitting as everyone howled with laughter.
"HAHAHAHA, ok, HAHAHAHA, Harry, ask someone!! HAHAHHAHA!!" Ginny laughed.
"Ok, Ryan, truth or dare?" Harry asked.
"Dare." he said.
"Ok then." Harry thought for a while and then grinned devilishly. Ryan looked slightly worried.
"Ok Ryan, I dare you... to switch underwear with.... Hermione!" Harry said. Everyone burst out laughing at Ryan's pale face and Hermione's open mouth.
"Draco, you go in there to make sure they do the dare!" Harry said as pushed all three people into an empty room.
"Ok, then, switch now!" Draco said. Ryan and Hermione looked uneasily to each other and then slowly took off their pants. Draco's eyes widened as he looked at Hermione's long, smooth, tanned legs. He turned around for he respected other people's privacy, though he did try to take a peak at Hermione who glared at him and made him turn back.
"Ok, we're done." Hermione said.
Draco turned around and laughed at the sight. Hermione was wearing superman briefs on them while Ryan was wearing a black thong.
Draco crawled out of the room laughing. Everyone turned to see the sight. All they saw were Hermione in pants and Ryan standing (uncomfortabally) in jeans.
"What? Did they do it?" Ginny asked.
"Y--y--hahhaha-yah!! Hermione is now wearing superman briefs while Ryan is wearing a black thong!!!" Draco laughed as everyone burst out laughing. Once the laughter died, it was Ryan's turn to ask someone.
"Oliver, truth or dare?"
"Truth."
"Pussy" Kathleen coughed.
"Ok, how far have you ever gone with someone, in quiddich terms?" Ryan asked.
Oliver turned red and bit his lip, "I caught the snitch."
"WOOOOOO!!!!" Everyone said and then laughed.
"Ok then, Draco, truth or dare?" he asked.
Draco smirked, "Dare."
Oliver grinned, "I dare you to strip down to your boxers for us while singing 'I'm too sexy'."
"Wooo!!!" Hermione, Kathleen and Ginny said as they burst into giggles.
Draco grinned, "Ok." (A/N- don't you wish you were there to see it?)
Draco stood up and then began taking off his shirt, "I'm too sexy fo... Draco now was unzipping his jeans. The girls were now giggling with laughter. ..... Draco had his pants off and threw the pants into the unsuspecting Ron. All three girls pretended to be crazed fans and then tackled Ron for the shirt. Now he was down to his boxers and Hermione stopped tackling for a while to look at Draco. Wow, he had a nice.... a FINE body! He sure WAS working out!!! Wow, she and the others definately had too much wine.
"Ok, my turn... Ginny, truth or dare?" Draco asked. Kathleen groaned, this game was taking way too long! It was already 30 minutes into the game and she barely had 3 dares. She knew Ginny would never pick dare.
"Dare." Ginny said. Kathleen perked up. She could be wrong.
"Ok Gin. I dare you to sneak into Snape's room and scare him!" Draco said. Ginny sighed in relief. This was going to be easy.
"Somebody go with her to make sure she does the dare!" Hermione said.
"Let's all go!" Kathleen suggested. Though this might take a while, she didn't want to miss out on all the fun.
Everyone sneaked out of the common room and walked the dark halls of Hogwarts. They kreeped down to the dunguons and came upon Snape's door.
"Go Ginny!" Oliver whispered.
"Ok!" she opened the door carefully into the dark room. She heard mumbling coming from an open door. She sneaked toward it and then yelled out, "Boo--- -HOLY SHIT SEVERUS!!!" Ginny screamed and then ran out the door. She came out screaming and ran to the common room with the others fallowing behind.
"What was that Gin?" Ryan asked panting.
"I, I, I.... I saw Severus..... making out with Professor Serpenya!" (A/N-I kno they'rs no professor serpenya. hey, snape has to have a love life too!) Ginny gasped.
Everyone's eyes widened and then they burst out laughing.
"Pro, pro, Professo, -haha- Professor SERPENYA?!" Harry laughed.
"Are you sure you weren't seeing things?" Ron asked laughing.
Ginny hugged her legs and rocked back and forth, "It's either that or I'm going crazy."
Suddenly the common room portrat opened and in came... Snape and Serpenya.
"Ginny! I'm sorry you had to see that! You, um, we, uh, I, uh, I should of locked the door." Snape apoligized.
Ginny rocked back and forth, "I think I drank too much wine. I think I'll go lay down for a while." Then she stood up and then walked up the stairs.
"I'll go make sure she's ok." Brandon said.
"I don't really feel like playing anymore." Hermione said.
"Me niether." Ron said.
"No! Let's play a little more! Please?" Kathleen pleaded.
"Why? It's only a game! We can play again tomorrow." Oliver said.
"Yes Oliver. It's just a game. A very good game." a voice from the shadow said.
"Dumbledore!" Harry said.
"Ryan, will you be so kind and fetch Mr. Phong and Ms. Weasley? I have something to tell you all." Dumbledore said.
Draco and Hermione looked at each other. "Why do I have a bad feeling about this?" Draco asked.
Dumbledore told them all to sit at the dining table.
"Ok, this truth or dare game was set up by me. Kathleen, getting journal number 7, had an opertunity to get an exemption." Dumbledore said. Everyone looked at each other.
"Now, the deal was, that if she could get 5 people to take dares in 45 minutes, she would get an exemption. Also, for every truth people do, they add 10 galleons into the pot and for every dare, they add 50 galleons. However, Kathleen had failed to do her task so she does not get the exemption." Dumbledore said.
"The pot now stands at 2,720 galleons. Now it is time for the nightly quiz. You may use the notes you have taken in your journals. You will also take the quizes seperately. Now after you take the quizes I would like you all to come back down here." Dumbledore let them go.
Draco turned on the laptop and saw a new icon that said 1st quiz. He double clicked it and then typed in his password (Shadow) and then took the quiz.
1) Did the mole win or lose in the memory game? a) win b) lose

Draco finished the quiz, grabbed his bag and then headed downstairs. When he got there, he saw that Hermoine was the first one down there. It was probably part of her stratagy to do the quiz fast also.
"Finally! Do you know how long I've been waiting for someone to talk to?" Hermione said teasingly.
Draco smirked, "I knew you missed me."
"Come now Draco, I was in desperate need of any life form, even though they're not intellegent enough, to talk to!" Hermione said.
"Hey, what's that saposto mean?!" Draco asked and began tickling her.
"-hahaha- Draco! -hahaha- stop!!" Hermione giggled.
"Say you missed me! Say it!" Draco said laughing.
"Ok! -haha- I missed you -hahaha- alright!" Hermione gasped as Draco stopped tickling her.
"I knew it." Draco smirked as he sat back on his chair.
"I said it, not like I ment it." Hermion squealed as Draco one again took her into his arms and began tickling her. Hermione fell off the couch and they rolled off with Draco under her. They stopped laughing for a second to look into each other's eyes.
"This is it Draco! Kiss her already!" Draco's heart screamed. He could feel her breath, their lips were bearly milimeters apart. Hermione closed her eyes as they moved closer, and closer...
"Ahem." said a voice above them. Hermione and Draco both looked up to see Ginny and Dumbledore looking at them.
Hermione blushed and then rolled off of Draco. Draco stood up and sat down on the couch. Ginny smirked at Hermione while Dumbledore's eyes twinkled in a myschivious way.
Finally, Harry was the last person to come down after taking the quiz.
"Ok! I shall type in your name here and if the screen turns lavender, you're still in the game. If the screen turns brown, you are the mole's first victim. As you know, Ginny has an exemption so he will move on," Ginny let out a sigh of relief. "Before I do that, let me ask you a few questions." Dumbledore said. Everyone shifted in their seats uncomfortabally.
"Oliver, you seemed not to have not formed an alliance. Do you feel good about the quiz you have just taken? How do you feel now that you have done so poorly so far into the game?"
"Well, I may not have a partner, well, I did want to play this game solo. What if I formed an alliance with the mole? I'm just not taking any chances. I really don't feel good about this game. And like you said, I have done poorly so far. I was one of the first people to lose in the memory game and I don't have a partner. Maybe I'm not the mole, maybe I am. I'm not all that sure about this game anymore." he answered. Dumbledore nodded.
"Hermione, why would you think you will make a good or a bad mole?" Dumbledore asked.
"Well, I would be a great mole, let's face it. I'm not trying to brag here but I was the smartest witch when I left this school. Nobody really know's what I'm thinking, exept for maybe my parents and my best friends. But even then they don't know everything about me. I also got lead in the school play two years ago, which would make me a great actress as Draco had pointed out to me earlier. What would make me a bad mole is well, I would make a good mole. Everyone would suspect me and then everyone will win. So really, what's the whole point of the game if I was the mole?" Hermione answered. Dumbledore gave her a proud smile. His smartest witch had made him proud with her think-throughly attitude.
"Ok, last question. Ginny, who do you think are the top three best mole candidates in this game and why?"
"Well, first of all, I think I would make a great mole. I am secretive and like Hermione, I'm a great actress. Hermione also would make a great mole. I mean, look what she did at the war. She had to pretend that she was a death eater and she's smart. Also, Ron would make a great mole, yet would not. Ron, can be such an idiot sometimes---"
"HEY!" Ron yelled in protest.
"Shut up Ronnikins, I'm trying to make you sound good. Anyways, nobody would suspect him to be the mole. Which would make him the best mole. But then again, he can be an idiot and not know what to do without me saving his ass so he wouldn't make a good mole." Ginny said as everyone laughed.
"Ok, it's time for the moment of truth." Dumbledore said.
Hermione grasped Draco's hand in fear. Draco just grinned.
"Ok," Dumbledore searched the room. "Brandon." Brandon sat up straighter than usual and then Ginny put her hand over his in support.
Dumbledore typed in his name. After a few seconds...... the screen turned lavender. Brandon sighed in relief.
"Hermione." Dumbledore said. Hermione squeezed Draco's hands tighter.
After a few seconds.... the screen turned lavender. Hermione let out the breath she didn't know she was holding.
"Draco." Draco didn't even twitch. Dumbledore typed in his name. After a few seconds... the screen turned lavender. Draco smirked in pride.
"Oliver." Dumbledore said. He slowly typed in his name. Oliver shifted uncomfortabally in his seat. After a few seconds.... the screen turned brown.
Oliver sighed in sadness. Hermione stood up and gave him a hug, as did Ginny. Harry and Ron gave him supporting pats on the back.
"Oliver, grab your bag and fallow Minerva. You're room is now relocated in this castle. I'm sorry to see you out of this game." Dumbledore said. Oliver waved goodbye as he fallowed McGonagall out the common room.
"Well now, tomorrow's another day. Go get some rest." Dumbledore said as they all walked to their rooms.
********************************************************************
Draco was just taking of his shirt, he only wore boxers to sleep, when there was a knock on the door.
"Yes.." Draco looked at Hermione. She was wearing a very revieling nightgown.
"Can I come in?" she asked.
"Of course." he said. Hermione sat down gracefully on his bed and crossed her legs. Her gown lifted a little to show off her nice long legs. She licked her lips seductively.
"Draco?" Hermione purred. Draco looked at her hungrilly and couldn't take it anymore. He wrapped her in his arms and kissed her. He kissed her with the all the passion he had for her. And she hungrilly kissed him back. Her tounge slid across his lip and without hesitation, Draco opened his mouth to greet her impatient tounge. They fell on the bed, with Hermione on top of him. She kissed every exposed part of him and then-------
*knock, knock, knock!*
Draco sat up from his bed. He woke up from the most amazing dream. "Why couldn't it have been real?!" he thought.

"Was he just flirting with me?" Hermione thought as she dusted herself off and walked back to the common room.

"Ok, Ryan, truth or dare?" Harry asked.
"Dare." he said.
"Ok then." Harry thought for a while and then grinned devilishly. Ryan looked slightly worried.
"Ok Ryan, I dare you... to switch underwear with.... Hermione!" Harry said. Everyone burst out laughing at Ryan's pale face and Hermione's open mouth.
"Draco, you go in there to make sure they do the dare!" Harry said as pushed all three people into an empty room.
"Ok, then, switch now!" Draco said. Ryan and Hermione looked uneasily to each other and then slowly took off their pants. Draco's eyes widened as he looked at Hermione's long, smooth, tanned legs. He turned around for he respected other people's privacy, though he did try to take a peak at Hermione who glared at him and made him turn back.
"Ok, we're done." Hermione said.
Draco turned around and laughed at the sight. Hermione was wearing superman briefs on them while Ryan was wearing a black thong.
Draco crawled out of the room laughing. Everyone turned to see the sight. All they saw were Hermione in pants and Ryan standing (uncomfortabally) in jeans.
"What? Did they do it?" Ginny asked.
"Y--y--hahhaha-yah!! Hermione is now wearing superman briefs while Ryan is wearing a black thong!!!" Draco laughed as everyone burst out laughing. Once the laughter died, it was Ryan's turn to ask someone.
"Oliver, truth or dare?"
"Truth."
"Pussy" Kathleen coughed.
"Ok, how far have you ever gone with someone, in quiddich terms?" Ryan asked.
Oliver turned red and bit his lip, "I caught the snitch."
"WOOOOOO!!!!" Everyone said and then laughed.
"Ok then, Draco, truth or dare?" he asked.
Draco smirked, "Dare."
Oliver grinned, "I dare you to strip down to your boxers for us while singing 'I'm too sexy'."
"Wooo!!!" Hermione, Kathleen and Ginny said as they burst into giggles.
Draco grinned, "Ok." (A/N- don't you wish you were there to see it?)
Draco stood up and then began taking off his shirt, "I'm too sexy fo... Draco now was unzipping his jeans. The girls were now giggling with laughter. ..... Draco had his pants off and threw the pants into the unsuspecting Ron. All three girls pretended to be crazed fans and then tackled Ron for the shirt. Now he was down to his boxers and Hermione stopped tackling for a while to look at Draco. Wow, he had a nice.... a FINE body! He sure WAS working out!!! Wow, she and the others definately had too much wine.
"Ok, my turn... Ginny, truth or dare?" Draco asked. Kathleen groaned, this game was taking way too long! It was already 30 minutes into the game and she barely had 3 dares. She knew Ginny would never pick dare.
"Dare." Ginny said. Kathleen perked up. She could be wrong.
"Ok Gin. I dare you to sneak into Snape's room and scare him!" Draco said. Ginny sighed in relief. This was going to be easy.
"Somebody go with her to make sure she does the dare!" Hermione said.
"Let's all go!" Kathleen suggested. Though this might take a while, she didn't want to miss out on all the fun.
Everyone sneaked out of the common room and walked the dark halls of Hogwarts. They kreeped down to the dunguons and came upon Snape's door.
"Go Ginny!" Oliver whispered.
"Ok!" she opened the door carefully into the dark room. She heard mumbling coming from an open door. She sneaked toward it and then yelled out, "Boo--- -HOLY SHIT SEVERUS!!!" Ginny screamed and then ran out the door. She came out screaming and ran to the common room with the others fallowing behind.
"What was that Gin?" Ryan asked panting.
"I, I, I.... I saw Severus..... making out with Professor Serpenya!" (A/N-I kno they'rs no professor serpenya. hey, snape has to have a love life too!) Ginny gasped.
Everyone's eyes widened and then they burst out laughing.
"Pro, pro, Professo, -haha- Professor SERPENYA?!" Harry laughed.
"Are you sure you weren't seeing things?" Ron asked laughing.
Ginny hugged her legs and rocked back and forth, "It's either that or I'm going crazy."
Suddenly the common room portrat opened and in came... Snape and Serpenya.
"Ginny! I'm sorry you had to see that! You, um, we, uh, I, uh, I should of locked the door." Snape apoligized.
Ginny rocked back and forth, "I think I drank too much wine. I think I'll go lay down for a while." Then she stood up and then walked up the stairs.
"I'll go make sure she's ok." Brandon said.
"I don't really feel like playing anymore." Hermione said.
"Me niether." Ron said.
"No! Let's play a little more! Please?" Kathleen pleaded.
"Why? It's only a game! We can play again tomorrow." Oliver said.
"Yes Oliver. It's just a game. A very good game." a voice from the shadow said.
"Dumbledore!" Harry said.
"Ryan, will you be so kind and fetch Mr. Phong and Ms. Weasley? I have something to tell you all." Dumbledore said.
Draco and Hermione looked at each other. "Why do I have a bad feeling about this?" Draco asked.
Dumbledore told them all to sit at the dining table.
"Ok, this truth or dare game was set up by me. Kathleen, getting journal number 7, had an opertunity to get an exemption." Dumbledore said. Everyone looked at each other.
"Now, the deal was, that if she could get 5 people to take dares in 45 minutes, she would get an exemption. Also, for every truth people do, they add 10 galleons into the pot and for every dare, they add 50 galleons. However, Kathleen had failed to do her task so she does not get the exemption." Dumbledore said.
"The pot now stands at 2,720 galleons. Now it is time for the nightly quiz. You may use the notes you have taken in your journals. You will also take the quizes seperately. Now after you take the quizes I would like you all to come back down here." Dumbledore let them go.
Draco turned on the laptop and saw a new icon that said 1st quiz. He double clicked it and then typed in his password (Shadow) and then took the quiz.

Draco finished the quiz, grabbed his bag and then headed downstairs. When he got there, he saw that Hermoine was the first one down there. It was probably part of her stratagy to do the quiz fast also.
"Finally! Do you know how long I've been waiting for someone to talk to?" Hermione said teasingly.
Draco smirked, "I knew you missed me."
"Come now Draco, I was in desperate need of any life form, even though they're not intellegent enough, to talk to!" Hermione said.
"Hey, what's that saposto mean?!" Draco asked and began tickling her.
"-hahaha- Draco! -hahaha- stop!!" Hermione giggled.
"Say you missed me! Say it!" Draco said laughing.
"Ok! -haha- I missed you -hahaha- alright!" Hermione gasped as Draco stopped tickling her.
"I knew it." Draco smirked as he sat back on his chair.
"I said it, not like I ment it." Hermion squealed as Draco one again took her into his arms and began tickling her. Hermione fell off the couch and they rolled off with Draco under her. They stopped laughing for a second to look into each other's eyes.
"This is it Draco! Kiss her already!" Draco's heart screamed. He could feel her breath, their lips were bearly milimeters apart. Hermione closed her eyes as they moved closer, and closer...
"Ahem." said a voice above them. Hermione and Draco both looked up to see Ginny and Dumbledore looking at them.
Hermione blushed and then rolled off of Draco. Draco stood up and sat down on the couch. Ginny smirked at Hermione while Dumbledore's eyes twinkled in a myschivious way.
Finally, Harry was the last person to come down after taking the quiz.
"Ok! I shall type in your name here and if the screen turns lavender, you're still in the game. If the screen turns brown, you are the mole's first victim. As you know, Ginny has an exemption so he will move on," Ginny let out a sigh of relief. "Before I do that, let me ask you a few questions." Dumbledore said. Everyone shifted in their seats uncomfortabally.
"Oliver, you seemed not to have not formed an alliance. Do you feel good about the quiz you have just taken? How do you feel now that you have done so poorly so far into the game?"
"Well, I may not have a partner, well, I did want to play this game solo. What if I formed an alliance with the mole? I'm just not taking any chances. I really don't feel good about this game. And like you said, I have done poorly so far. I was one of the first people to lose in the memory game and I don't have a partner. Maybe I'm not the mole, maybe I am. I'm not all that sure about this game anymore." he answered. Dumbledore nodded.
"Hermione, why would you think you will make a good or a bad mole?" Dumbledore asked.
"Well, I would be a great mole, let's face it. I'm not trying to brag here but I was the smartest witch when I left this school. Nobody really know's what I'm thinking, exept for maybe my parents and my best friends. But even then they don't know everything about me. I also got lead in the school play two years ago, which would make me a great actress as Draco had pointed out to me earlier. What would make me a bad mole is well, I would make a good mole. Everyone would suspect me and then everyone will win. So really, what's the whole point of the game if I was the mole?" Hermione answered. Dumbledore gave her a proud smile. His smartest witch had made him proud with her think-throughly attitude.
"Ok, last question. Ginny, who do you think are the top three best mole candidates in this game and why?"
"Well, first of all, I think I would make a great mole. I am secretive and like Hermione, I'm a great actress. Hermione also would make a great mole. I mean, look what she did at the war. She had to pretend that she was a death eater and she's smart. Also, Ron would make a great mole, yet would not. Ron, can be such an idiot sometimes---"
"HEY!" Ron yelled in protest.
"Shut up Ronnikins, I'm trying to make you sound good. Anyways, nobody would suspect him to be the mole. Which would make him the best mole. But then again, he can be an idiot and not know what to do without me saving his ass so he wouldn't make a good mole." Ginny said as everyone laughed.
"Ok, it's time for the moment of truth." Dumbledore said.
Hermione grasped Draco's hand in fear. Draco just grinned.
"Ok," Dumbledore searched the room. "Brandon." Brandon sat up straighter than usual and then Ginny put her hand over his in support.
Dumbledore typed in his name. After a few seconds...... the screen turned lavender. Brandon sighed in relief.
"Hermione." Dumbledore said. Hermione squeezed Draco's hands tighter.
After a few seconds.... the screen turned lavender. Hermione let out the breath she didn't know she was holding.
"Draco." Draco didn't even twitch. Dumbledore typed in his name. After a few seconds... the screen turned lavender. Draco smirked in pride.
"Oliver." Dumbledore said. He slowly typed in his name. Oliver shifted uncomfortabally in his seat. After a few seconds.... the screen turned brown.
Oliver sighed in sadness. Hermione stood up and gave him a hug, as did Ginny. Harry and Ron gave him supporting pats on the back.
"Oliver, grab your bag and fallow Minerva. You're room is now relocated in this castle. I'm sorry to see you out of this game." Dumbledore said. Oliver waved goodbye as he fallowed McGonagall out the common room.
"Well now, tomorrow's another day. Go get some rest." Dumbledore said as they all walked to their rooms.
********************************************************************
Draco was just taking of his shirt, he only wore boxers to sleep, when there was a knock on the door.
"Yes.." Draco looked at Hermione. She was wearing a very revieling nightgown.
"Can I come in?" she asked.
"Of course." he said. Hermione sat down gracefully on his bed and crossed her legs. Her gown lifted a little to show off her nice long legs. She licked her lips seductively.
"Draco?" Hermione purred. Draco looked at her hungrilly and couldn't take it anymore. He wrapped her in his arms and kissed her. He kissed her with the all the passion he had for her. And she hungrilly kissed him back. Her tounge slid across his lip and without hesitation, Draco opened his mouth to greet her impatient tounge. They fell on the bed, with Hermione on top of him. She kissed every exposed part of him and then-------
*knock, knock, knock!*
Draco sat up from his bed. He woke up from the most amazing dream. "Why couldn't it have been real?!" he thought.
