I'm Bored!!
Hermione lay beside the river in her new baby-blue bikini, sunbathing under the blazing hot sun with the other two girls as the guys swam in the cool water. She'd been so caught up in thinking about last nights events that she hadn't heard a thing about what Lavender and Pansy were arguing about.
"Earth to Hermione, are you there?….Hermione!!" She shot up when she finally heard her name being called.
"Wh…what?"
"Finally! We've been trying to get through to you for ages." Lavender was looking at her, un-amused by that fact that her friend had been ignoring her. "Are you with us now?"
"Yeah," Hermione sat up straighter and pushed some stray strands of hair behind her ears. "what's up?"
"Well, we were just discussing who had the best chest."
"You were debating which one of you has the better chest?"
"No not us. Them!" Lavender pointed in the direction of the three boys. Hermione's eyes were drawn straight to Draco's glistening muscular chest, her breath disappearing as she watched him dunk Neville under the water.
Pansy snapped her fingers in front of her face. "Don't go daydreaming on us again Granger. Who do you pick?"
"Um…"
"We've both agreed on Draco 'cause…"
"'Cause Malfoy's a major hottie!" Lavender interrupted.
"Interrupt me again and I'll slap you." Pansy spat at her then turned around to face Hermione again. "So, who do you pick?"
"Um…" "Oh no, what am I supposed to say? If I say Malfoy they'll know I like him. Wait…did I just say I LIKED Malfoy?" "…Harry?"
"Potter? You think Potter's better looking than Draco? Are you blind or something?" Before Hermione could answer, Lavender had run up to the shore.
"Hey Harry, Hermione thinks your hot!" Harry's cheeks turned rosy pink as Neville and Draco snickered.
"Nice one Potter, seems you can't go anywhere without your fan club." Draco said as he slapped Harry on the back, his eyes darting towards Hermione. "Fucking Potter!"
Draco dived under the water and swam towards the shore, followed by the other two.

As they walked through the forest Hermione found her eyes, once again, being drawn towards Draco butt as it swayed from side to side. "Why does he have to have such a great ass? Damn you Malfoy!"
"I'm bored!" Pansy moaned and turned around to pout at Draco. "Let's play a game."
"I think we're a little old to be playing games Pansy."
"But I'm bored!"
"Pansy…"
She stopped right in her tracks causing the rest of the group to halt. "Who fancies playing a game?" Her eyes scanned the crowd. "Oh come on…"
"And what do you suppose we play, huh? Hide and seek?"
"Stop being so sarcastic Draco, of course not."
"How about man hunt?" The group turned their heads in Harry's direction.
"What the hell is "man hunt"?" Lavender questioned.
"Well, it's a bit like hide and seek…" Draco clicked his tongue. "we separate into two different groups, half are the hunters and the others are the men…" Hermione shot a look of disapproval at him. "AND women."
"Yeah, then what Potter?" Draco questioned as he shook Pansy off his arm.
"Well, the object of the game is to keep yourself from being caught by the hunters for as long as you can."
"Ooh let's play Draco, I wanna play the muggle game." Pansy pouted whilst Draco rolled his eyes.
"Bloody hell!" "Fine." He raised his hands in surrender, arguing with Pansy was something he couldn't be bothered to do. "On one condition thought."
Pansy let out a squeal of excitement as Harry questioned, "And what would that be?"
"That I get to pick the teams," Draco caught Hermione's eye and gave her a sexy wink. Hermione's legs felt like they were melting as she turned her head to hide her blush. "and I also want to be on the team which is hiding."
"Fine."
"OK then. Granger, myself and the bint," Draco pointed at Lavender. "are on one team. You three are on the other."
"WHAT?!!" Pansy protested. She moved closer to him and her voice softened as she circled her finger on his bare chest. "But I wanna be with you."
"Tuff." Pansy's disappointed expression was priceless. "What are the rules Potter?"
Harry tried his hardest to keep in the laughter which threatened to burst out of him. "Rules? Oh yes, right." Harry took a deep breath to calm himself down before continuing. "Um, the team which is on the run has to maintain uncaught for as long as they can. You can hide where you want and can change your hiding place if you want too. We have to give you a minute head start before we can begin looking. To get you out we have to catch you and say '1, 2, 3 manhunt' whilst holding on to you."
"OK, everyone know what to do?" The group nodded. "Right, let's get going!" Draco, Lavender, and Hermione sprinted in opposite directions as the others counted up to 60.
"This sucks!" Pansy pouted as she leaned against a nearby tree.

Hermione felt a rush of adrenaline as she darted through the forest. It had been so long since she'd done anything like this and it felt so good to let her hair down once in awhile. This game was definitely something she could do with. She giggled as she spotted a large, wide tree and sat down behind it. "This should do for the time being."
Draco looked over his shoulder and began walking when the "hunters" were out of sight. "Perfect!" This game was exactly what he needed to get some alone time with Hermione. Since last night all he could think about was kissing her again, feeling her body against his, and breathing in her scent. Draco smirked when he recalled the way she moaned into his mouth when his arousal rubbed against her. Oh how he'd loved to hear that moan turned into a scream. He stopped in his tracks when he noticed a head of bushy brown hair poking out from behind a tree. "Granger."
Draco crept quietly up to where she was sitting. For a few moments he stood watching her stoke the wings of a butterfly that had settled on her hand then whispered to her. "Granger."
Hermione's hands jerked in surprise and the butterfly took off into the air. Her heart was pounding, she turned round to see Draco sitting beside her. "You idiot! You scared it a…" Draco cut her off mid-sentence with his lips.
"Are you bored?" questioned Draco as he scanned her slender form.
"I guess so…"
"Good." Draco's lips continued to kiss her as he laid her down on the ground and climbed on top.
His hand travelled from her waist, up her stomach, and to one of her soft breasts so he could play with it. He circled the nipple with his thumb causing it to harden under his touch. A muffled moan escaped her lips and he smiled. "Merlin, how I love that sound!"
Hermione's legs parted as she wrapped them around his waist and used her hands to pull his face closer to hers. Tingling sensations spread throughout her body and she wanted him a close to her as possible. She gasped when their groins rubbed together and she felt his arousal.
Draco smiled when he realised what she was doing and grabbed her hands and pinned them above her head with his own. They broke the kiss and looked into each others eyes. Hermione gave him a sexy look and whispered, "I want you."
"I want you too." Draco panted as his hips ground against hers. "I want you more than you can imagine." Hermione's eyes fluttered shut as she took in the feeling of his hard member rubbing against her sex repeatedly.
She became lost in the feeling and the world disappeared from around her. She thought about what it would feel like if he was inside her and not just dry-humping her. Hermione shook that thought out of her head. "Maybe next time. After all, we've come this far. We should probably take things slowly. I think that's for the best…"
"Ahem."
Draco and Hermione froze. "Did you hear something?" Draco asked.
"AHEM!" Draco rolled off of her and saw Lavender staring at them with her hands of her hips.
"Shit!"
"You might wanna put what your doing on hold as the others are pretty close." Lavender laughed as she watched them swish the dirt of their swimwear, both of them red in the face..
Hermione grabbed Lavender's arm as they began to run in the opposite direction of Draco. "Please don't tell anyone about what you just saw?"
"Don't worry, your secret's safe with me." Lavender winked at her. "I want all the juicy details though." Hermione's face turned an even brighter shade of red.
Draco stood beside the tree, wiping his face with one of his hands. "Fuck it!"
