Hermione sat down at her house table (Gryfinddor) and ate her breakfest in silence while Harry and Ron were just chatting away. Hermione was also trying to avoid looks from Ginny. Hermione knew Ginny was smiling with a wide grin smeared across her face.

"Hermione?"

"Huh?" she looked up and turned to Harry.

"What is it?"

"You seem a bit spaced out. Is there something wrong?"

"Oh, I was just thinking of- Professor Snape's class" Hermione lied with a small smile.

"Yeah, Professor Snape's class is getting harder by the minute. I don't even know what we're doing today" Harry said with a laugh after. They started to talk until it was time for class.

Hermione walked to her class and began to start the dare. Hermione sat down at her table and listen to her Professor but glanced sveral times at Draco until he noticed her.

As the Professor started a long lecture, Draco began to notice Hermione staring at him.

'What the hell is Granger staring at? Is she staring at me?' Draco became confused and looked at her curiously.

Hermione noticed she was staring and began to smile softly at him. Now Draco was clueless. 'Did she just smile at me?'

-

At every class she did the same thing. Hermione just stared at him and smiled. Several times she spotted him blushing which was a small sign that she's getting to him.

Now, after classes. Everyone returned to there rooms. When Draco arrived to the room he saw Hermione lying on the couch reading a book. He walked over to her and looked at her with a firm look.

Hermione noticed and placed the book down. "What?"

"Granger, what were you staring at during all the damn classes?"

Hermione smiled and sat up. " What did you think I was staring at?" she asked innocently.

"Uh- well. It looked like you were staring at me"

"So?"

"Umm -so. Why were you?" Draco asked annoyed by her little innocent act.

"I just noticed that you were cute" she said as she stood up and walked towards him. Hermione flashed him a cute smile which made him turn a shade of red.

"Granger, what's wrong with you?"

"If you want me to leave you alone I will. You just have to tell me" she said. Draco didn't answer. Hermione thought the silence was a yes so she walked back to the couch and continue to read the book. Draco just stayed silent until Hermione asked him a question.

"Malfoy, why do you hate me?" she asked and turned to look at him. Draco gave her a curious look. "What do you mean?"

"You have always teased me, gave me cold glares, insulted me for no apparent reason. Why is that?" She asked. Draco sighed and sat down beside her.

"Well, to be honest. I don't know. I guess because you're Potter's friend, and you're a mudblood. I was raise to hate mudblood, by my father since I will soon become a Death Eater" He leaned back and placed his hands behind his head.

Hermione looked at him with a concern look. "You don't have to be a Death Eater"

Draco rolled his eyes. "Harder than it sounds" he muttered.

"Draco, your father isn't here anymore to control your life. And mother is a caring woman that wouldn't force you into anything"

"That may be true Granger, but my father's last wishes were for me to become a Death Eater. He beats me, yells at me, forcing me to become a Death Eater. I just feel he is my father, and he has raised me to bcome a Death Eater"

"I understand" Hermione said and moved closer to him. She leaned her face closer to his. Draco's heart beated faster and faster as he got nervous.

"Granger? What do you think you're-" Draco was cut off when he felt Hermione hot lips pressed firmly on to his. His heart beated faster, and he felt as if his whole body was paralyzed. Draco was in shock for awhile but started to become comfortable. He leaned in and return the kiss.

He wrapped his arms around her waist and deepened the kiss. Hermione threw her arms around his neck and pushed her body close to hers. Draco felt her whole body against his and his mind went wild. He pulled her in deeper into him. Hermione started to lick his bottom lip, which was an invitation for him to entrance. His tongue was inside of her mouth massaging her juicy tongue. Hermione slowly took it easy and kissed him gently before pulling away.

Hermione smiled. "I'm sorry. I don't know what came over me" she said innocently. Hermione stood up andf gathered her books. She slightly pushed him away and headed to her last class.

Draco leaned back on the couch and rubbed his fingers against his lips. "Wow"

'I can't believe Granger kissed me like that. Why did she kiss me? That was- wow! She is an incrediable kisser' Draco thought with a small smirk on his face.


'This is better than I expected. Maybe making Malfoy fall for me is easier than I thought. He's a quit an amzing kisser. But...I wonder if I should really do this. I might hate him with my last ounce of breath but he hasn't been treating me that badly for the last few weeks. He has become more decent. Not to mention he has grown to be fairly attractive' she thought with a smile. She walked to directly to her class when she realized something.

'Am I starting to have feelings for the young Malfoy? No. I can't, this is only a dumb dare' She thought with her hand on her forehead.

'This is only a dare' she kept thinking that, but couldn't help of thinking of her feelings for Draco.
