The next morning, Hermione woke up and went to take a shower. She found Malfoy taking a shower. The door was unlocked, so she just went in to put her stuff down. She was about to leave when the shower stopped. She ran for the door but Malfoy heard her.
"Granger, what are you doing in here?"
"I..I was just.. just putting my..my stuff down and was going to leave. The..the shower stopped and I..I ran for the door b..but you stopped me."
At that moment, Malfoy stuck the upper half of his body out of the shower curtain. The other half covered with the curtain.
"I think you just wanted to see me naked." Malfoy said in a sly tone.
"What? Are you kidding? I don't want to see you naked!"
"You sure? Just one drop of this curtain."
"Yes, I'm going back to the common room to wait for you to get out."
Hermione walked to the door and was about to turn the knob, but she felt a hand on her arm. She knew it was Malfoy's, but she didn't want to see him naked. So she didn't turn around.
"Turn around, I have a towel on my waist."
Reluctantly, Hermione turned around. She didn't dare look down though. She looked at the ceiling. Hermione felt Malfoy's hands on hers. Then he guided her hands to the towel on his waist. Hermione looked at Malfoy a little embarrassed.
"Oh.right." She started.
"Look we need to talk. When I called you sexy on the train, I meant it."
Hermione once again found herself standing there in shock. Malfoy, Draco Malfoy thinks she's sexy.
"You, a Malfoy, thinks a muggle born, is sexy? I highly doubt that" Hermione finally said.
"Well I do, you have to trust me on this one."
"I don't know if I can do that." Hermione said eyeing him weraly.
"Well would you try?"
"I don't know if I should. How do I know that I can trust you and shock even become friends with you?" Hermione asked sceptically.
"Because of this..." Malfoy said just as he turned his head in to kiss her. Hermione kept her lips closed. But she finally gave in. she found her arms around his neck, and his around her waist. After awhile they had to stop to breathe. Hermione was running her fingers through his wet blond hair.
"Will you be my girlfriend?"
Hermione stood there dumbstruck.
"Yes, but what will everyone say?" She finally answered.
"Hermione, if you want, we could keep it a secret."
"Ok. Just, will you kiss me again?"
After Hermione took her shower, she got dressed and went to the Great Hall. She looked for lavender and Parvarti. They were sitting near the end of the table. Hermione sat next to them.
"So Hermione, we were just saying how you don't have a boyfriend. Do you want us to hook you up with someone?"
"Umm.. no that's ok."
"Ohh come on! Please?"
"I'll. uh. think about it."
Hermione picked up a piece of toast and left the Great Hall and back to the common room.
"Draco?"
"Yeah?"
"I've got a problem"
"What's up Mione?"
"Lavender and Parvarti want to set me up with a guy. If I say no, they would ask why. Should I tell then?"
"I guess you have to."
"What should I say though?"
"That you have a boyfriend, if they ask you who, just tell then they have to promise not to tell anyone." Draco said with a knowing look in his eyes.
"Ok. be right back."
"Lavender! Parvarti! Hey, ummm I know my answer!"
"Well what is it?" They both said at the same time.
"No"
"What???? Why?"
"Ummm. I have a boyfriend." Hermione said looking towards the floor.
"WHO?" They screamed.
"Promise not to tell?" Hermione said looking around to see if anyone was listening or watching.
"YES!" They chimed.
"Draco Malfoy" Hermione said in a soft whisper.
"Oh.. my.. god.. oh my god!" Lavender said.
"You are sooo lucky Hermione. Draco Malfoy is the sexiest guy in school!" Parvarti said in that same soft whisper.
"I know! I got to go back to Draco now you guys. Talk to you later, and remember. Don't TELL ANYONE!"
"We'll remember!"
