The New Golden Trio

The next day Draco couldn't help but worry about Hermione. He did care that she threw him out of her room, literally, but she was put through a lot, who could blame her? He had been acting mean towards her lately. Hermione on the other hand wasn't thinking about Draco. . . she was thinking about Harry. She had developed feelings for him and after last night when he held Hermione in his arms she loved it. She loved Harry. Hermione decided that she would just let Dumbledore handle Blaise because he was going to be sent to Azkaban for having the Dark Mark and he wasn't worth getting sent to Azkaban herself just to get revenge. Not wanting to lose sleep and be tired the next day she decided to go to sleep. . .

Dream

Hermione was in the boys dormitory. It was dark and cool. The window was open and was letting the night's wind flowing through.

Hermione was laying down and Harry was on top of her kissing her passionately. She loved it. She felt so warm and safe. Harry just made her feel protective inside. She knew that he wouldn't let anything hurt her. Him kissing her just felt like all was right in the world.

Harry pulled back and smiled. His jet black untidy hair just as untidy as ever. "Hermione I love you. I don't know how I could live without you."

Hermione felt tears in her eyes. "I love you too."

End of Dream

Hermione woke up seeing Harry throwing pillows at her head trying to wake her up. Surprisingly, she caught a pillow and threw it at him missing him by half an inch.

"Hey!" Harry said ducking from the pillow.

"Hey what? You were the one throwing the pillows at me first. I was happily sleeping until you rudely interrupted me." Hermione said giving him a small pout.

Harry looked disappointed in himself. "I'm sorry." But then his disappointed frown turned into a huge grin. "I have something that may make up for it." Hermione looked puzzled. Harry bent down and slightly kissed her on the lips teasing her with his tongue slightly but didn't go into anything deep. Harry knew that Hermione didn't like to rush into a relationship.

During the summer after their fourth year, Hermione broke up with her previous boyfriend, Victor Krum, because he didn't want to take it slow and he was starting to abuse her to get what he wanted. Luckily she broke it off before he had the chance to murder her or to rape her. That day she made a vow that if any guy she went with didn't want to take it slow then she would dump him then and there.

"Does that make up for it." Harry said hopeful with his beautiful green eyes.

Hermione just sighed. "I guess." Hermione then smiled then nodded.

"Hermione. You are my best friend. I love you. I have always thought of you as a sister. But I know realize that I love you more than just a sister." Harry hesitated. "Will you be my girlfriend?"

Hermione smiled. She sat up and kissed Harry into a deep kiss. She pulled back. "You can take that as a yes." Hermione bent forward and kissed Harry never wanting to stop. Her dream was coming true. She was with that man that she loved and who she wanted to be with her whole life.

It was a week since Hermione had accepted Harry's offer to be his girlfriend. She was avoiding Ginny and Draco. Ginny because even though she was going with Dean Thomas she always had a crush on Harry. She was avoiding Draco because even though the whole school knew that they were going together Draco seemed like he didn't know. She wasn't sure if he did or not. She was worried that Draco thought that their kiss a couple of weeks again had meant something. But she was with Harry now. She was happy. Besides she was mad at Draco.

Hermione was laying on her bed with her door open just thinking.

"Can I come in?" Draco said. He smiled when Hermione jumped in surprise. "No need to be scared. I don't bite."

"Unless you want to fly in the air again I. . ."Hermione said getting annoyed. He always seemed to annoy her but at the same time he always made her heart jump at the sight of him.

"First of all if you try and throw me in the air then I won't be so nice next time." Draco said interrupting her. He quickly realized his mistake.

Hermione couldn't take it anymore. She started to glow but returned to normal hearing Harry's voice. He had just came thought the entrance to the common room and was looking her Hermione. "Hermione are you here?" He said.

"Harry I am in my room." Hermione said still glaring at Draco. Draco glared back.

It appeared as if they were having a death glare contest. And whoever would give the deadliest would win. Harry walked in and saw them. "Hey are you two ok?" Harry said. They both said no at the same time. Harry looked at Hermione and Draco back and forth. "Ok."

"Draco was just leaving." Hermione said. "Weren't you Draco?"

"Yeah. See ya mate." Draco said saying goodbye to Harry. "Bye Hermione" He left with one last glare and smirked at Hermione making her disgusted seeing Draco getting amused seeing Hermione annoyed and mad.

After Draco left Harry turned to Hermione with a concerned look. "What is going on between the two of you."

"Nothing. We are just having a little argument." Hermione lied to Harry. She really didn't like to lie but if Harry knew that Draco had pushed Hermione then they would have World War III in the common room. Besides, it really wasn't a lie. She was having a argument with Harry. She just wasn't about to tell him about Hermione throwing Draco across the room with a mere squint of her eyes. She wasn't ready to tell Harry about her new powers. Right now only the teachers and Draco knew. She would wait until the right time to tell him came.

"If you say so. Professor Dumbledore said that you were excused from classes today but he is making me go to class." Harry said a little angry and sad. "So I just came to see how you were doing."

"I'm doing fine. Don't worry. You better get going before your late for class." Hermione said.

"Ok. Walk me to the door?" Harry said.

"Sure." Hermione said. They got up and held hands and went down to the common room. Draco was sitting in one of the chairs with a notebook of parchment and was writing trying to avoid staring and Harry and Hermione.

"Bye. Come by after your classes. I don't think that I am going to go to lunch or supper." Hermione said.

"I will. Get some rest ok." Harry said. He bent down and kissed her slightly on her lips and walked through the entrance and out of the common room. Hermione sat down across from Draco and started to read until Draco spoke.

"I didn't know that you usually kiss your best friends like that." Draco said with his usual sneer.

"Well he is my boyfriend." Hermione said.

"W-What? I didn't know that." Draco said getting up.

"Not that it is any of your business but we have been going out for a week." Hermione said grinning. "Why do you care anyway?"

"Who said I did?" Draco said trying to look disgusted. "Why would I care about a little Gryffindor girl and her little Gryffindor boyfriend.

"I don't know." Hermione said smirking. She sat down in the chair next to him. "If you didn't care then why on earth did you kiss me a week ago?"

"I-I-I was just proving to you that I could have you anything I wanted." Draco said.

"Sure you were." Hermione said getting up and walking to her room. Before she went in she yelled something so that Draco could hear her. "Like you could get me even if you tried." And she went in laughing. She loved to mess and annoy Draco.

Draco sat back down thinking about Hermione. 'We'll see how much I can get you after The Halloween Ball.' He thought while smirking.

Hermione laid on her bed thinking of what to do. She was bored. The only person she could talk to is Draco and she was mad at him so he was out of the question. Hermione decided to go up and visit Fe-Fe in the owlery.

When she got there Draco was there sitting on the floor with a worried look. Hermione went over to him and sat down on the floor next to him.

"What is wrong?"

"It's my father. He said that the only way for you to receive the Dark Mark is for you. . . to. . . to. . . kill a muggle." Draco said looking at her.

"But I can't." Hermione said. "I won't"

"You have to." Draco said trying to convince her. "And Dumbledore said that we might have to kill for the greater good."

"I know but. . . I have never killed anyone before." Hermione said. "I couldn't imagine killing someone."

"I know. But I will be there remember." Draco said putting an arm around her.

Hermione felt uncomfortable with him holding her. She pushed his arm off. "Yeah thanks." She got up and walked to Fe-Fe. "She seems so sad."

"She hasn't see you in such a long time." Draco said. "She missed you."

"Yeah." Hermione said patting her. "Well I must be going. I am going to look for Harry" Hermione said leaving Draco alone in the owlery feeling angry. She really wasn't going to look for Harry she just didn't feel right being with Draco alone.

'Damn Potter. Why is it that every time I have my chance with Hermione somehow he has to come up and ruin everything.' Draco thought felling angry and a little jealous that Hermione would rather go looking for Harry then be in his arms.

During dinner time Hermione noticed that Harry hadn't come to visit her yet. She decided to go looking for him. She went into the Great Hall first since she hadn't eaten all day and she was very hungry.

There she only saw Ron. "Hey Ron." Hermione said sitting down next to him.

"Oh hey Hermione. Harry told me what happened." Ron said hugging her. His face suddenly became red. "Let me at him. I'll kill him."

Hermione tried to calm him down. "Ron don't worry. He is being sent to Azkaban because he is a Deatheater." Ron's face lightened up and became normal again.

Hermione smiled. "Have you seen Harry? He said that he would come to visit me but he never showed up." Hermione said worried.

"I haven't seen him since Charms." Ron said eating his food.

"Well I guess then I will eat. I haven't eaten all day and I am starving." Hermione said starting to eat. "I am sure that he'll come soon."

Harry finally came and was out of breath. "Where were you?" Hermione asked.

"Err. . . I was at the Quidditch pitch. I was practicing." Harry said uneasy. Hermione didn't seem to notice. Ron eyes him suspiciously.

"Well you missed dinner." Hermione said.

"I'm not really that hungry." Harry said. "I am gong to the common room. Want to come with me Hermione?" Harry said with an evil smile A/N: not the one that he might kill her but the one that he is up to something) on his face.

"Sure." Hermione said getting the hint.

Soon Hermione and Harry laid naked on Harry's bed in the boys dormitory. It was dark and cool. The window was open and was letting the night's wind flowing through.

Hermione was laying down and Harry was on top of her kissing her passionately. She loved it. She felt so warm and safe. Harry just made her feel protective inside. She knew that he wouldn't let anything hurt her. Him kissing her just felt like all was right in the world.

Harry pulled back and smiled. His jet black untidy hair just as untidy as ever. "Hermione I love you. I don't know how I could live without you."

Hermione felt tears in her eyes. "I love you too."

Harry smiled. "You know you don't have to do this if you don't want to. I am not going to force you to do something you don't want to do."

"I know but I want to." Hermione said.

Hermione wrapped her legs around Harry as he entered her small and delicate body. She felt him and tensed up. It was the most wonderful thing she had ever felt. She knew that Harry was the person that she wanted to spend the rest of her life with.

The bright sun woke up Hermione who was dreaming happily. She groaned and rubbed her eyes. She then remember last nights events and smiled. She felt Harry's arms around her. She scooted closer to him to get warmer.

She laid there for about 15 minutes then remembered that she had classes. "Harry. Harry. Get up. We have classes." She said gently.

"Screw classes." Harry said mumbling.

"I can't skip classes. They are too important." Hermione said getting dress. "I'll see you in class." She said and gave Harry a small kiss on the cheek. She left for her common room.

When she got their Draco was sitting on the couch drinking coffee and reading the Daily Profit. He looked up and saw her and raised an eyebrow, obviously knowing where she was last night. "Have a nice shag with Potter last night?" Draco said with a hint of coldness in his voice.

"Its none of your business." Hermione snapped. "Since when do you call Harry, Potter?" Hermione asked. Hermione went up to her room when Draco ignored her and didn't say anything.

When Hermione was in her room and Draco was sure that she couldn't hear him he said. "Because he took my woman."

Weeks went by and Hermione and Harry were inseparable. Except that once a week Harry would just disappear and no one would know where he was at. Hermione decided to follow him one night to find out where he went.

"Hey I am going for a walk. I will see you later." Harry said getting up from the Gryffindor table in the Great Hall. "I probably won't be back until late so don't wait up."

"I'll come with you." Hermione said.

"No." Harry snapped back. Hermione's eyes got wide. "I mean. . . no I don't want you to catch a cold."

"Ok. See you later." Hermione said. As soon as Harry left she turned to Ron and said "Want to follow him?"

Ron smiled. "Sure. Lets go." They quickly followed Harry.

Harry walked down into the room of requirement. Ron and Hermione stopped in front of the door clueless. "How are we suppose to go in there without Harry knowing." Ron asked.

"We could use the invisibility cloak then apparate together in there and they won't even notice us." Hermione said in a matter-of-fact tone.

"I knew that." Ron said.

"Sure you did." Hermione said. "Accio invisibility cloak."

The cloak came flying into Hermione's hand. They pulled it over both of them and apparated together. Hermione couldn't believe what she was seeing. Her boyfriend, Harry Potter, and her best friend, Ginny Weasley, were laying on a bed snogging to death naked. Hermione felt herself starting to glow. Ron looked at her glow with amazement in his eyes. Hermione tried to control her temper and her glow faded.

She didn't know what to do. Should she dump him now or just hope that he would tell her. He wasn't worth her time. She threw off the invisibility cloak. Harry and Ginny saw her and departed from each other and started to put their clothing on. As soon as they were dressed Harry tried to explain but she wouldn't listen.

"Hermione I. . ." Harry started but he was cut off.

"Harry James Potter, what the blood hell do you think you are doing?" Hermione yelled her faced getting slightly red. "Never mind, I don't want to know. It's over." She said.

Harry tried to say something but she silenced him with a spell. "And you Ginevra Weasley what do you think you are doing stealing my boyfriend."

Ginny smirked at her. "Why is little Hermy mad because I stole her man. He must of not been satisfied with you."

"Why you little slut." Hermione said. Her eyes started to glow. 'Hermione don't. The little whore isn't worth it.' she told herself. Her eyes became normal. She went up to Ginny and slapped her so hard that she fell to the ground. "You can have him." She said. "Come on Ron lets go." She left the room, Ron behind her.

Hermione and Ron went back to the Heads common room. Draco was there and saw Hermione and Ron come in.

"How dare he. . . and with that slut. No offense Ron." Hermione yelled sitting down on a couch.

"Non taken, she is a slut. I know that now." Ron said. "Don't worry. I am on your side." Ron said putting a arm around her.

"What happened?" Draco said. He had been listening to the whole conversation and had only heard bits and pieces of the whole story.

"That Potter cheated on me with that slut Weasley." Hermione said.

"What?" Draco said not believing what he just heard.

Hermione explained everything to Draco and broke into a fit of sobs. "Hermione its alright. Potter doesn't deserve you." Draco said.

"Draco's right." Ron said comforting her.

"Yeah I guess so." Hermione said. "I guess we are the new Trio. The three of us. Two Gryffindors and a Slytherin." Hermione said smiling, giving her friends a hug.

"No matter what we will always stand by you." Draco said.

"Remember that." Ron said.

"I will." Hermione said smiling.
