"Um Draco I'm gonna go to bed now. But the bed is pretty big and I mean were adults now its not like we're going to do any thing so... if you want you can sleep in there tonight sense you have double potions tomorrow. You would need the good night sleep." She said getting up off the couch. He looked up at her and smirked.
"Ok then. But stay away from me and my sexy body. I know its tempting!" he said teasingly. She laughed and slapped him playfully and ran to the bedroom. He followed and tackled her on the bed.
"Good night!" he said and moved to his side of the bed and fell asleep quickly with hermione on the other side of the bed.

YOUR CHAPTER...
V
----Fun memories -----
Hermione woke up being... held! 'By who?' she thought. She looked up and saw Draco sleeping peacefully, his hair still in his eyes. He had one arm resting around her waist and the other was holding her head on the pillow.
"Draco..." she whispered lightly trying to wake him up but not to loud as to startle him. He didn't budge. "Draco!" she said a little louder. Still nothing. "Draco!" that got his attention. He bolted awake and fell out of the bed.
"What the bloody hell is going on!" he shouted still siting on the ground.
"You were holding me." She said looking at him puzzled.
-----Draco's pov-----
He turned a light shade of pink when she said that.
"Sorry, sleeping reflex I guess." He said standing up. That wasn't the case at all...
The other night...Draco woke up in the middle of the night not being able to stay asleep. He turned to face hermione and wanted to hold her close. And that's just what he did. He inched closer to her and placed an arm around her waist and held her had on the pillow with the other. Then he fell asleep in that position, not waking up again until hermione screamed at him.
Back to now...
Hermione nodded. "Oh, ok well we better get ready. Breakfast is in twenty minutes." Hermione got up and began her daily routine. Draco did the same and headed out to breakfast a few minutes before hermione.
-----Hermione's pov----
Hermione had just finished brushing her teeth and was on her way out to breakfast when she heard a loud popping sound come from behind. She turned around quickly, her wand at the ready. There before her stood Ron Weasley breathing heavily. Hermione gasped.
"Hermione stay, please! I've been thinking. If you come back to me we can work things out." He pleaded.
"Hermione shook her head. "No Ron the divorce is final. I refuse to come back to you. You're not the one for me, maybe some one else but not me! You should be looking for other women that don't mind being beaten to death on a regular basis!" she screamed.
"I have, but then I realized that you're the only one for me! I can't be happy without you!" he said inching towards her. She backed a way from him and told him to back off. He didn't listen to her he just smirked and came closer. The door to the room slammed open and Harry and Draco ran in, their wands pointed at Ron.
"I see your posse has arrived, so I won't bother you... for now." He said and disaperated. Hermione sighed and sat on one of the couches.
"Hermione what did he do to you!" said harry running to hermione.
"Nothing yet..." she said and shuddered. Harry pulled her in a tight hug and she began to sob into his shoulder. "So how did you know I was in here any way." she stuttered when she could talk again.
"We didn't." said Draco staring at the spot that Ron had disaperated from. "I had to come back and get something. Then harry thought he would come too and when we were out side the door we herd you yelling at weasel." Harry nodded in agreement.
"Hermione I have to go and teach about protecting your self from centaurs... will you be ok for now?" asked harry. Hermione smiled.
"Of course harry... but I think you should hurry we don't want little insane Umbridges running around do we?" she said thinking of fifth year. Harry laughed.
"Yea I suppose we don't!" he said heading for the door. Draco and hermione followed him out and headed to their classes.
---Draco's pov------
He was teaching his 7th year potions class and was righting down the ingredients to a vary complex healing potion when he heard some one whisper loudly 'stop it'. He turned around and saw a blonde slytherin boy fling a peace of paper at a black haired gryffindor. 'Ah, the memories... yet all the horrible things I did.' He walked over to the gryffindor and grabbed the note. He looked down and saw a little stick figure girl and boy making out. Draco smirked ten threw away the note.
"Five from slytherin for disrupting the class. I'm utterly disappointed." He said and continued to right down the formula. When he was done he turned back to the class. "Any questions?" The class know-it-all raised her hand. "Yes?"
"Um may I go to the rest room I'm not feeling to well." She said her voice cracking as she tried to hold back tears. He nodded and she ran out of the room. Draco turned towards the blonde slytherin and glared at him. After I wile Draco dismissed the class, but asked the slytherin to stay for a moment.
"You like her." Said Draco as the boy approached his desk.
"I DO NOT!" shouted the boy. "I'd never like a mud-blooded gryffindor!"
"What's wrong with it? I did!" said Draco looking at the boy. The boy gapped at his professor.
"Really... what would the other Slytherins say though?"
"Should it matter?"
"I guess not but she'll never give me a chance!"
"If you show her the real you she'll come to love you for the person you are. That's what I did and it certainly paid off. Just try it." Said Draco and pushed the boy out the door. 'Ha, ha, ha mini me' he thought and went to dinner.
---regular pov-------
A few months went by and no one had heard from Ron. Hermione and Draco were being a little more open with each other and harry had found a lovely dark haired girl at the three broomsticks. Harry and the girl would meet every weekend.

It was two weeks before the Halloween costume party and Hermione, Harry, and Draco were all sitting in the great hall eating breakfast. The doors to the great hall opened and a few late sleepers walked in. in the group were two that hermione would have never possibly have imagined. Drake Malloy (the blonde slytherin) and Hillarie Grager (the mudblood gryffindor). Hermione gasped because the two were laughing and smiling and when they parted to go to their house tables they kissed! She couldn't believe it. The two least likely people to be together were dating!
"Draco! Did you see that drake and Hillarie, together!" she whispered.
"Yea isn't it great! I helped it along you know?" he said smiling.
"You? No way... how?" asked hermione looking at him with great interest.
"Can't tell you! It's a secret!" he said smirking. "You can't stand that can you?" hermione scrunched up her nose and then shook her head in defeat. He laughed and continued eating. The whole day went by and hermione couldn't get Draco out of her mind. His smile, his warm laugh, and rickety hair style, All of this made her feel safe and like she belonged and she wanted him more and more every time she was with him. ' Why do I feel like this? And how did he get mini me and drake together?' she was contemplating this when her 7th year class walked in. Hillarie Grager and drake Malloy walked in with their usual posse. Drake with Crabbe and Goyle's nephews, and Hillarie with Richard (Richy for short) and henry.
During the class Hillarie would sometimes look away from her work and look over at drake. He would smile at her and go back to work, her friends on the other hand would glare at drake and shake their heads in disappointment at Hillarie. Hermione laughed to her self. 'Ah the memories... I wish it were still like old times.'
Class was over and hermione and harry had plans to go to hogsmeade that after noon to look for some nice costumes. She left the room and found harry out side of his classroom. She walked over to him and smiled.
"How was class today?" she asked. He smiled.
"I had Firenze come In today to help with the lesson that I started a wile back. It was freaking hilarious. You would think that sense I already taught the spell for rebelling the attack of a centaur they wouldn't run around the room screaming like mini Umbridges! Oh... man you had to be there." He said laughing. Hermione laughed too, she enjoyed making fun of all the evil teachers or people they met over the years. They left to hogsmeade and continued to chat about the day.
Hogsmeade
In hogsmeade hermione and harry shopped for many different costumes. Harry had decided to go as ether a fire fighter or a pumpkin. Hermione just laughed at him.
"Why not go as a death eater or something they're not much of a threat and people just like to make fun of them now." Hermione said smiling at his pumpkin outfit. He laughed.
"Yea I suppose that's a better outfit than a pumpkin." He said looking at her with curiosity. "But what are you going to ware?" she hadn't thought about that yet.
"Glad you brought that up! I haven't put much thought into it..." she said trailing off. Harry laughed and held up a really skimpy cat outfit.
"How bout this?" he said starring at her oddly. Hermione shook her head in disgust.
"NO! Harry potter I thought you had more sense than that!"
"You, the great hermione granger, thought I had sense?! Man I wish I had a camera!" She laughed and grabbed a more suitable cat suit.
"This will do..." she said and paid for it. They walked out of the store and into the three broomsticks. They sat at the bar and order two butter beers. A woman with long black hair and a dreamy look on her face sat down next to harry.
"One fire whiskey, please." She said in dark wary voice. Harry looked at her and then smiled his trademark I'm going to go for it smile. Hermione laughed at him and waved him for him to go for it. Harry turned to the girl and smiled.
"Hi I'm harry potter... you are?" he asked. She just stared at him with her silver violet eyes then smiled.
"Raven Sky." She said in a kind, dreamy voice. Harry smiled at her too.
"That's a lovely name." He said. Her smile faded when she realized he was trying to pick her up. Then she smiled again.
"So... I'm here to meat my husband why are you here?" she asked. (a/n: not really raven is just trying to fool him it's not going to work though!) Harry felt his stomach drop. Then he looked at her hands. No rings in sight, he smiled at her again.
"You don't have a husband you're just trying to fool me!" he said laughing. She smiled.
"You caught me! I thought you were another stupid guy who tries to pick up women at bars for fun." she said laughing. He laughed too. Then hermione cut in.
"I think you got him down to a tee, except he doesn't do it for fun, he just likes picking up women!" she said. Harry glared at her and raven and hermione just laughed harder. Harry asked raven to come to the dance with him and she gladly excepted. Hermione was on her way out when she ran into Draco.
"You must really like running into me! This was like, what the fifth time this week?" he said laughing. She laughed too and nodded.
"I guess so! What are you doing here any way?" she said brushing her self off.
"Costume shopping!" he said with fake perkiness. "What about you I see harry has already found a girl!"
"Yea I'm here for that too but I'm on my way back. What are you going as?" She asked looking at hi curiously. He smiled a large wide grin.
"I'm going as the phantom of the opera. I saw the play one time and really loved it."
"You've seen a mugle play?" He nodded.
"Yea went to New York before I came back here and I saw the play." Hermione smiled.
"Ah so you like muggles now?" she asked looking a little amused.
"Never really hated them... I always thought they were somewhat interesting. Being able to all this amazing stuff without using magic." He said vary seriously, "if I would have let every one know I would have been beaten or killed by my father and voldimort. Its not fun trust me I went threw it a few times because of some other things." He said frowning. Hermione gasped was he telling her that he was beaten and that he was never really a bad person? No of course not.
"Draco, I... I had no idea." She said apologetically.
"Its ok, are you going back to Hogwarts cause I think I'm going to go back too." He said. She nodded and they headed back to Hogwarts together.
On their way back Draco put an arm around Hermione's waist and pulled her closer to his side. She looked at him a bit puzzled then smiled.
"Hey Draco?" she asked.
"Hmm?" he responded.
"Do you like me?"
"What do you mean?"
"Do you have feelings for me other than just friends?" he didn't respond, instead he just opened the door to their room and sat on the couch. He motioned for her to sit next to him. She sat and waited for him to answer.
"Tell me if this answers your question..." he said and kissed her sweetly on the lips.
