Chapter 5-Unbelievable.

Hermione woke up to yelling once again. She wasn't really in the mood to listen to the squabbling of the Malfoys. She lay back in her bed and reached over to the nightstand where she retrieved her book. She opened to chapter 6 and floated away with the words. This was her favorite place to be in bed with a book. She was looking forward to going to the park this morning after having a great time with Petrus yesterday. She lazily got dresses and went down stairs for the usual breakfast. She quickly ate her food before darting back up the stairs to look more appropriate to go see Petrus.

Draco decided that today he would secretly follow Hermione to the park just to see what was really going on. Its not like he cared right? He decided to make his plan more effective by trying out a new invisibility spell he read about. With 3 taps of his wand he was gone. When Hermione left the house Draco soon followed, but still keeping a distance incase his spell failed. After walking steadily behind Hermione for approx 10 min he saw her stop and sit next to a familiar face.

"Hello Herms How are you?"- Petrus began

"Hey Pete I'm good and you?"-Hermione responded

"Good, Yesterday was fun, but I think Draco was getting a little perturbed because we weren't including him"

"Yes I noticed that too"

Hermione and Petrus continued conversing for about an hour before they began walking again. Draco quickly followed close behind so he could clearly hear what they were saying. They talked about books they were reading and life in general. Draco found they're conversations to be quite boring. Yet they seemed to be enjoying themselves. Before he knew it Hermione and Petrus were at the mansion. Just before Hermione headed inside they leaned in for a kiss. Draco stood staring on shock he couldn't believe what he saw. Hermione and Pete, mud blood and a pure blood kissing. Hermione closed the door behind her and ran up the stairs to her room.

Oh my god!! Hermione thought to herself. This was the best day of the whole two weeks she had been there. It was also her first kiss. She couldn't believe it. She spent the next hour lying on her bed replaying the morning in her head over and over. She had a smile across her face. Just then she was abruptly interrupter by the door. Draco Barged in.

"What do you want Malfoy?" –Hermione sneered.

"Nothing Granger just bored out of my mind, and also thinking; since your going to be here for the whole summer we might as well try to be civil." Draco responded.

Hermione found herself dumbstruck by Draco's words. This wasn't like him at all. He was always the rude git Malfoy. Since when did he want to be civil? Although he did have a good point after all they would be living in the same house no matter how big for the summer. They couldn't avoid each other forever.

"Fine whatever, what did you have in mind then?"-Hermione said unenthusiastically

"I don't know exactly but I'm sure we can think of something right?"

Hermione and Draco sat in an awkward silence, which seemed to last forever. The silence was finally broken by a house elf informing them of a friend who was awaiting them in the living room. Hermione and Draco walked down the stairs to the living room curious as to who was there. When they arrived they saw none other than Petrus. Draco felt serge of jealousy run through his veins.

This was very unusual why would Draco be jealous of Petrus, he was one of his friends. As he watched Hermione and Petrus hug he felt like punching Petrus. Snapping himself out of his daze he asked,

"So Pete, What's up?"

"Well I just came by to tell you guys that I'm going to be gone for about 3 weeks tomorrow. We're visiting my Grandmother in Romania."

Hermione felt her heart sink into the pit of her stomach. She couldn't believe he was leaving her for 3 weeks with the Malfoys. She felt overwhelmed with sadness, yet she didn't want it to show this so she took in a deep breath and smiled.

"Well that sounds great. I hope you have fun." Hermione said

"Why thanks Herms, I'll be sure to bring you something back".

Hermione gave a small smile.

Draco could see the sadness in Hermione's eyes. He felt bad for her, she seemed to really like him; and after what he'd witnessed in the park he couldn't help but want to comfort her. He didn't understand these feelings he was having. It was Granger little mud blood Granger. He knew that if his father ever knew he was beginning to like a mud blood he would be banished, he couldn't let these feelings grow.

With one last hug Petrus was gone. After watching him leave Hermione went upstairs, he should feel tears in her eyes and didn't want Draco to see so tried to hold them back until she got to her room. Draco followed her upstairs.

"Draco, do you mind maybe leaving me to be, I was hoping to catch up on my book."-Hermione said quietly

"Do you honestly think I believe that? I saw the look in your eyes when Pete told us he was leaving you look as if you were going to cry. You obviously like him."

Hermione felt her cheeks burn red.

"Yes, I suppose you right. I just don't see why he has to leave now after everything that's happened."

"Everything that's happened?" Draco inquired.

Hermione sighed.

"I can't believe I'm going to tell you this but, well lately me and Pete have mean meeting in the park every morning. We've talked about so many things and have gotten pretty close and I think he likes me and well I like him, and this morning we kissed. But now he's leaving."

A tear rolled down Hermione's cheek. She felt so vulnerable crying in front of Malfoy. But to her surprise and to his, he held her in a warm friendly hug.
