Chapter 2: Vanished

Disclaimer: I don't own Harry Potter... I only own this sad little plot of this sad little story. This is for the whole story because I always forget to put disclaimers... so this takes care of the whole thing.

Hermione sighed. They were making another vanishing potion. This, she could do without. She had done the potion in third year. She lazily made it up, and leaned back, as it steamed healthily.

"Ms. Granger. I could do without you spilling your potion all over the table," Professor Snape said as he walked by the table."

Hermione looked down and saw about three drops of the potion on the table. She rolled her eyes, and turned to Ron and Harry, who as usual hadn't even managed to get the first step right.

"Don't stir it 5 times, it only needs 3," she said shaking her head.

Draco had finished his potion as well, and he sat back, watching Hermione help Ron and Potter. Or should he say Pothead and Weasel? He hoped she hadn't overheard too much of their conversation.

He stood up, and carried his cauldron up to Snape, not watching where he was going. As he walked up to the front of the room, his elbow knocked into Hermione's potion, spilling it all over her. She and the chair she was sitting on vanished, so he supposed some of it had gotten into her mouth.

"Hermione?" he asked cautiously, afraid she had somehow messed up the potion and it had been worse then that.

"You spilled it all over me! You slimy toad!" she yelled loudly, as he stared at the spot he thought she was at.

"Tsk tsk, Granger. You'd better come for a detention today, to make the antidote for that," he said smirking.

Draco could imagine her face at this moment. Or maybe he couldn't. Wait, he couldn't see her. She could be sneaking up behind him or in FRONT of him and he wouldn't know.

"OW!" he yelled, as he felt a sharp slap across his face, surprising him out of his thoughts. So he had been right.

"CLASS DISMISSED!" shouted Snape, practically pushing the students out of the door and slamming it behind them.

It was weird for Draco to see the books floating in the air by themselves, but at least he could tell where Hermione was.

He went ahead to his next class, Care of Magical Creatures, groaning, as it was double with Gryffindor again. As he walked outside, he sighed. He HATED Care of Magical Creatures, because he was desperately afraid of all of the creatures, sadly. He walked over to the fence surrounding the area, and perched on it, wishing he could be any place but here.

Hermione walked up and sat behind him. He didn't notice, and he was mumbling to himself.

"Stupid old dad, thinking I should do whatever HE wants. I'm not going to be his puppet. No, no, no... NOT a puppet. And that GRANGER. Stupid old Granger who beats me in everything, causing my dad to be even more mad. And looking good at the same time. Life is unfair."

Hermione's eyes were wide open. He thought she looked good? She finally realized how funny that was, and started giggling, a lot.

"GRANGER!" boomed Malfoy, having discovered she was beside him.

"You think I look good huh?" she managed to gasp out in between giggles.

He groaned.

"I'm out of here," he said angrily, pushed to the top by her stupid giggling.

"WAIT!! Malfoy!!" she shouted, watching him leave. She took a glance around, and stood up and followed him.

"Malfoy!" Hermione finally said, having managed to catch up with him. She gasped, as she put her hand on his shoulder, leaning heavily on him.

Malfoy couldn't help but enjoy the feeling of being so close to her. He could almost lean over and ki- NO! What was he thinking? He couldn't do that!

She finally severed the touch between them, pushing all thoughts of kissing out of Malfoy's head, which he was thankful for.

"So why did you leave class? Afraid of a few flobberworms?" she teased, not realizing he really was.

"Well... I..." he stuttered, embarrassed.

"WHAT? You really are?" Hermione asked loudly, her voice echoing through the empty halls.

"Let's go outside," he said, shaking his head. "Or your stupid voice will get us both into trouble."

Hermione stalked outside, 3 feet ahead of him at all times.

They walked alongside of the lake. Draco couldn't believe he was actually having a normal conversation with Hermione. I mean, he hated her!

"So WHAT is the deal with Care of Magical Creatures?" asked Hermione, hoping for something to blackmail Malfoy with.

"Nothing."

"Oh come on, you should have seen your face in there... I hit it right on the mark didn't I?" Hermione said with a smile.

Wow. An actual smile. Directed at him. He suddenly couldn't remember why he hated her so much.

"Draco?" she asked, her voice a little higher all of a sudden.

He couldn't hold himself back any longer. Leaning forward slowly, he asked her with his eyes whether he could.

Unknowingly, she agreed. As he leaned closer and closer, trembling with anticipation of their kiss they heard a loud voice.

"Hold it mister!"
