Alrighty people! Here is the next installment in my HP story. A good point that was brought up by Mianne is that "pagers" and "cameras" are pretty muggle things. So, for the heck of it, let's pretend that Dumbledore explained it all to him in the last chapter.

Okay, here goes nothing.

With that said, the portrait swung shut, and the tired Gryffindor returned to her room. She pulled the covers back and lay down on her bed. She wasn't planning on sleeping, but for some reason or another her eyes could not help but shut and her mind wandered off to dreams full of...Draco.

End of Chapter 10

When Hermione awoke the next morning, she felt as if she had been hit on the head with a sledgehammer. She managed to roll out of bed, literally, and make her way to the bathroom. She slipped out of her clothes and into a bathrobe. She made sure to do this in the privacy of the bathroom since now there were cameras in her bedroom. She turned the golden faucet on of the tub and let the water heat up and fill the tub. She then turned the pink handles that emitted bubbles. While waiting she stared at her reflection in the mirror.

"What is going on here? Why are we being followed and you harassed by your father?" she was talking to herself of course, but this had become a habit in the past months. There was nothing more that she wanted than Draco, and she was pretty sure that he felt the same.

She was so engrossed in her thoughts that she hadn't noticed the Slytherin Prince's door to the bathroom open and close. Nor did she notice him casually slipping behind her, until his hands were casually around her waist.

"Hmmm, the hot steam from the shower sure feels good. My room was just freezing last night." Draco whispered into her ear, sending shivers down her spine.

She turned around in his grasp so they were face to face. "Oh is that so?" She made a face that suggested she was uninterested.

"Yes it is so. Would you like to see for yourself?" He began placing light kisses down her neck, as she wrapped her arms around his neck, pulling herself against him. She breathed in his scent. It was a smell of aftershave and something she couldn't quite pin point, but loved nonetheless.

"Actually, I was going to take a nice long shower. That is until you so rudely interrupted me."

"Oh, I didn't mean to interrupt your conversations with...well, with yourself. That was not intended. I simply meant to do this." He gently removed the robe she had applied not ten minutes earlier. He looked at her body, the creamy milk-like skin glowing in the bathroom lights. Though there was nothing wrong with it at all, she seemed to be quite shy and Draco thought this was cute. Just another way she is the sweet, innocent Hermione I know. Draco thought to himself.

"And I wanted to do this." Hermione grinned as she began unbuckling his belt, tossing it to the floor. Promptly followed by his pants, and boxers. He raised an eyebrow to her, amazed that she would do such a thing. "I take it you want to join me in the tub?"

"Well, we were denied our bath time last night were we not?" Draco stated. This had in fact been true. Dumbledore's interfering last night had caused them to forget their bath.

"After you." She said, a smile casually finding its way onto her face. Draco took his orders and emerged himself into the strawberry scented bubble bath. Hermione soon followed. She situated herself on the seat inside the tub, her body completely submerged.

Draco approached her, wrapping his hands around the small of her back. Her skin feels even smoother under the water. He thought to himself. He began kissing her, as she kissed him back. The heat of passion rising. They broke the kiss staring into another's eyes. Silence filled the room. No words were needed, for the feelings were mutual: They loved each other. Though it would be a while before they would admit it to each other, this was the moment they both found out for themselves.

The silence in the room was broken by a slight buzzing noise. Draco was unsure as to what this was, but Hermione knew exactly what it was: the pagers. She knew the sound all too well, after all her parents had pagers.

Draco could tell from her expression, that fear was mounting inside of her. "Draco," Hermione managed to say in a whisper. "There is someone out there. That is the pager going off."

"Remember what Dumbledore said though. This room has a special locking on it. They can't get in. so see, we can go right back where we were." Draco started placing kisses on Hermione's neck but she protested immediately.

"Draco! What if the teacher's come in here? We can't be seen like this. Come on! Let's get out!" The two of them quickly got out of the tub, dried themselves off, and got dressed. They performed drying spells on their hair so that no one could tell they were in the tub, except that they smelled of strawberries. There was nothing more to do but wait.

Not ten minutes later they heard a rasping on the door. "Hey! Let me in! What's going on in there?"

Hermione was shocked. It was the voice of none other than...

(Should I make you wait??)

"Harry Potter! What on earth are you doing here?" Hermione was fuming.

"Well, I...I...wanted to say hi and to see what you were doing. You weren't at dinner last night and you hadn't made it to breakfast this morning. I was worried that something happened to you."

"Well, thanks for caring. But I have to hand it to you. You scared the living daylights out of me. Draco here was a bit scared himself, but he was sure that we were protected in here."

Hermione and Draco exited the bathroom into Hermione's room where Harry was now standing, looking a little ashamed of his actions.

"Sorry I scared you, that was not what I intended to do. But why would you be safe in the bathroom? What's going on?" Harry was confused as to why the two Heads would need to seek safety.

"Look, I'll explain as much as I can at lunch. Right now, I am going to take a walk outside. It is too beautiful of a day to be stuck inside." With that said, Hermione grabbed her coat and left the dorm, leaving Harry and Draco standing in her room staring at each other.

A/N: Hey everyone! Thanks so much to all the reviews that I got for the last chapter. I hope that you all enjoy this one. I tried to make it a little longer than the others. Tell me what you think!
