Ok guys, here the last update for at least two weeks. I'm going on vacation with my parents and brother (I'm so excited, I'm going to Florida, the farthest I've ever been into the states is where ever Yellowstone national park is.) for two weeks, and so I will not be updating. But dont worry, when I get back I'll continue. Ok, so thank you to everyone who review that last chapter. Oh, and the song in this is Accidentally In Love by the Counting Crows. Ok, thats enough from me now.
The weeks slipped by, and it was soon December. Hermione and Draco were truly enjoying their time together. They had managed to keep there relationship secret, but had been easing the school into it. Hermione made comments to Harry and Ginny about how Draco was much more civil towards her, and that he wasn't as bad as they had thought, while Draco did his part by stifling his usual insults towards the Gryffindors. All except Ron of course, because Hermione couldn't have cared less if he approved.
One snowy December morning Hermione was sitting in their common room doing homework when Draco snuck up on her. He covered her eyes with his hands and whispered, "Guess who?"
After Hermione got over her initial shock she smiled, how could she not know who it was? "Mm, Harry?" she guessed coyly.
Draco turned her around, still keeping her eyes covered. "Tell me Hermione, does Potter ever kiss you like this," He bent down and kissed her passionately, letting his hands slip off her eyes.
Hermione looked up at him and smiled. "Nope, only my Slytherin Prince kisses me like that. You haven't seen him have you?" They laughed for a moment, and Draco slid into the chair beside her.
"So, that Hogsmead weekend is coming up. You going?" he asked.
"Probably, I think Ginny's going to try and drag me along. What about you?"
"Actually, I was thinking."
"Oh, you had a thought, now that's scary," Hermione teased.
"No, I'm serious. What if we just skipped this weekend and hung out around here? We could finally hang out without worrying that everyone was going to see us."
Hermione thought about it for a minute before nodding her head in agreement. Although she had originally been glad to keep there relationship a secret, it was now getting frustrating. She wanted to be able to just be with Draco, no matter where they were; at least they could pretend for an afternoon. And so it was settled, they would play hooky that weekend.
(So she said what's the problem baby. What's the problem I don't know, Well maybe I'm in love (love), Think about it every time I think about it, Can't stop thinking 'bout it.)
On Saturday morning Hermione had just managed to convince Harry and Ginny that she was feeling a little ill, and that she might meet up with them in Hogsmead later on if she felt better, when Draco knocked on her bedroom door from the common room. "Are you ready to go yet," he called through the door.
(How much longer will it take to cure this? Just to cure it cause I can't ignore it if it's love (love), Makes me wanna turn around and face me but I don't know nothing 'bout love)
"Just a second," she called as she pulled on her favourite sweater. She had decided not to wear her robes that day. When she opened the door Draco smiled and bent down to kiss her lightly. He then offered her his arm and they walked over to where Draco had spread out a magnificent brunch for them to share. They ate happily, chatting the whole time. It was the first time they had had a meal together, but it seemed to fell like they had been eating together for years.
(Come on, come on, Turn a little faster. Come on, come on, The world will follow after. Come on, come on, Cause everybody's after love.)
When they had finished eating, Draco practically had to drag Hermione away from the dirty dishes. She didn't like the idea of leaving them out for the house elves to take care off. Draco finally had to leave a note for the house elves, telling them not to touch the dishes, just to stop Hermione from marching down to the kitchens and washing them herself.
(So I said I'm a snowball running, Running down into the spring that's coming all this love. Melting under blue skies Belting out, sunlight shimmering love.)
They walked out onto the grounds for a stroll around the lake, after making sure that the last of the students had left for Hogsmead. The grounds had been covered in a light blanket of snow, just enough to add a sparkle to the already magnificent grounds.
(Well baby I surrender to the strawberry ice cream, Never ever end of all this love. Well I didn't mean to do it, But there's no escaping your love.)
Everything seemed to be so perfect as the couple held hands and walked around the edge of the lake. The water wasn't quite frozen yet, so they could see the giant squid swimming back and forth. Hermione was sure that she'd never been happier.
(These lines of lightning mean we're never alone, never alone, no, no)
"Wanna make a snowman?" Hermione asked when they were half way around the lake.
"Sure," Draco shrugged.
When they had finished, they stepped back and looked at there snowmen, or more, snowman and snowwoman who were holding hands.
(Come on, Come on, Move a little closer. Come on, Come on, I want to hear you whisper. Come on, Come on, Settle down inside my love.)
As Draco continued walking Hermione got an idea. She bent down and scooped up a ball of snow, and taking aim, she lobed it at Draco's head. Direct hit!
Draco turned around in shock before his face split into a wicked grin and he through a snowball strait back at her. Hermione duck it, and snow the air was filled with the small white balls.
(Come on, come on, jump a little higher Come on, come on, if you feel a little lighter. Come on, come on, we were once upon a time in love)
Their game was finally ended when Draco tackled Hermione, and they both fell down into the snow laughing.
(We're accidentally in love, accidentally in love. We're accidentally in love, accidentally in love. We're accidentally in love, accidentally in love. We're accidentally in love, accidentally in love. We're accidentally in love, accidentally in love. Accidentally)
They continued on their way around the lake, and when they finally got back to their common room they were soaking wet, shivering, but happy.
(I'm In Love, I'm in Love, I'm in Love, I'm in Love, I'm in Love, I'm in Love, Accidentally. I'm In Love, I'm in Love, I'm in Love, I'm in Love, I'm in Love, I'm in Love, Accidentally.)
"Is that mistletoe about our door?" Draco asked coyly.
Hermione looked up, but she saw nothing, then she realized her face was now at the perfect angle for Draco to kiss her. "Draco Malfoy, you don't have to trick me to kiss me!" she laughed.
(Come on, come on, spin a little tighter. Come on, come on, and the world's a little brighter. Come on, come on, just get yourself inside her.)
As he moved his lips towards hers Draco replied, "No, but sometimes it's more fun that way."
(Love ...I'm in love)
Hermione and Draco were so absorbed in each other that they didn't notice Harry and Ginny, who had come back early to check on Hermione. They were now standing in shock, unable to tear their eyes away from the site before them.
Draco and Hermione turned and walked into their common rooms, still blissfully unaware that there secret had just been discovered.
So, what did you think?
