Author's Notes: I am so sorry for all of the confusion. In the last chapter Hermione did not acually say that she loved Draco...he only thought that that's she was going to say. I have made this chapter to clear that up. i am sorry once again for the confusion. please review this chapter. Enjoy!
Hermione lay on her bed wondering what had just happened. How did that come to be? This wasn't right. HE WAS FREKIN' DRACO MALFOY! She closed her eyes and sighed. What did he mean when he said 'I know'? What did he think she was going to say? This was all a little too confusing.
The next day Hermione woke up and went to breakfast with Harry and Ron before their first class.
"I still can't believe that Dumbledore hasn't done anything to find out who got everyone wasted at the dance." Said Ron.
"Maybe it something even he can't figure out." Said Harry.
"Harry, if he can find out that Sirius was innocent, What Voldemort wants with Harry, That Lupin didn't really let Sirus in the school in third year, and everything else that has threatened out lives then he can find out who put some liquor in punch!" Said Ron.
Hermione laughed with her friends that rest of breakfast and then headed toward Defense Against the Dark Arts. Hermione sat in the back with Harry and Ron. She pulled out her book and began to take notes as the teacher had instructed and then was the first to do the spell that they were learning correctly.
They headed down to lunch afterwards. Halfway there Hermione's bag broke and everything in it spilled to the ground.
"What in the world?" Hermione said surprised.
"Do you want us to help?" Harry asked.
"No, no it's okay. I think Ron would die if he didn't get his food. Go on. Ill meet up with you later." She said
Harry nodded and left to the great hall with Ron. Hermione started to pick p her things. 'How in the world did this happen? This bag was brand new!' Hermione thought as she magically repaired that bag and put her stuff back in it. She stood up and began to head to the Great Hall when she felt an arm pull her into a nearby room.
When she was in the room everything was dark and she couldn't see a thing.
"Who's there?" she asked.
"Calm down, Granger. It's just me" came Malfoy's voice in the dark.
"Draco?" she asked?
"You were expecting someone else to pull you into an empty room?" she said as he lit the tip of his wand so he could see clearly.
"Well…I…no." she said stammering a bit.
"Look Malfoy I think we should talk before…" she couldn't finish her sentence because Draco kissed her.
She almost fell backward in surprise that Draco had to put his arms around her waist to steady her. She put her arms around his neck and kissed him back. He pushed her against the wall and began to kiss up and down her neck.
"Draco…look…I…I…" she said through gasps of breath.
"I know." He said the same way that he said it last night.
"You know what?" she asked him.
Draco looked up at her quizzically and said, " I know that you love me."
It took Hermione a while to let what he said sink in. 'He thinks I LOVE him?' she thought.
"Draco…when did I say that?" she asked.
"Last night." He said.
"I didn't say that last night." She said.
Draco looked at her oddly for a moment. 'Oh thank GOD! She doesn't love me. But then why was I so excited when I thought that that was what she was going to say? I don't love her…Do I?' He thought to himself.
"Draco I am so sorry if I gave you the wrong signals. I mean I like you. I really like you but…" again she was interrupted be Draco kissing her.
"I don't care." He said against her lips.
"You don't care?" Hermione asked confused.
"Just so long as you like me." He said and he began to kiss her neck and behind her ear. Hermione went weak in the knees again. She closed her eyes and let out a sigh.
Hermione walked up to the Great Hall and sat next to her friends.
"What took you, Hermione?" asked Ron with his face stuffed full of food.
"Ink got all over my books and I wanted to clean it all up." She lied.
"Oh…okay? Why didn't you just use magic?" Ron asked her.
"I did." Hermione said.
"But it took you a long time?" he said getting confused.
"Exactly." She said.
Ron shook his head and began to eat some more.
Hermione made her way down the corridors that night and reached the library. She opened the doors and made her way down the isles of books. She stopped in front of the book she needed and took it off the shelf. Just as she was about to open it she heard a huge explosion just outside.
"What?" she asked herself as she ran to the doors of the library.
She tried to open on e of the door but it refused to open. She pulled hard on all the doors but none would budge.
"Oh come on!" she yelled. She kept pulling on the doors until she was tired. She tried the Alohamora spell but it wouldn't work. She walked back to one of the tables and sat down. Well, if she was going to be trapped in a room at least it was the library. She heard a loud noise suddenly inside the library and it made her jump to her feet and whirl around.
"Who's there?" she asked. And she saw a shadow begin to creep toward her. She backed up to the wall in fear but still the shadow continued to come toward her.
