Thanx for all the reviews... please do morealso I forgot to put a disclaimer last time so here it is for both chapters: Disclaimer: I DON'T OWN THESE CHARACTERS OR ANYTHING ELSE just a little bit of the plot I also wish I owned draco malfoy but that's a different story! Now the story:
Back in the common room Hermione sat down to do her homework for Transfiguration. After 5 minutes she got annoyed and went upstairs to her room. She laid down on her bed and started to think about what has happened in the past days. 'I, Hermione Granger is going out w/ Draco, Draco Malfoy.. WHY???????' She thought more 'Yeah I mean he's hott and he's sweet, but only sometimes... but what else is there.. HE'S EVIL!!!!! His dad is you-know-who's right hand man.. how is Draco not a death eater.. Maybe I should ask him about that.'
"Draco.. Draco. I need to talk to you.." She knocked on his door.
"What's up 'Mione?"
"Come here." She led him to the couch.
"Are you..."
"Am I what?"
"Are you. a death eater?" Hermione asked looking everywhere but him.
"No... why?"
"Well your dad is and well you know I thought maybe you would take the side of your dad and well I don't know what I was thinking I shouldn't have asked that."
"Hermione. I need to tell you something to make you understand.. I hate my father. He is an idiot for choosing you-know-who's side. I know you might think that I like you-know-who but I don't. Look Hermione. I want to show you something.. but not here. Someone might come in the common room."
Hermione followed Draco up to his room. When they got inside Draco shut the door and put the blinds down. Turned the light on and went towards the mirror. He took of his coat and started to unbutton his shirt. When he took it off Hermione saw the worst thing ever.
"Who did this to you??"
"My father. when he's not happy with me. he..he beats me up."
"WHAT?"
"Yeah. that's why I don't like his side. I can see now that people get hurt, not that I didn't before. But now I can see that it is wrong. before I was taught that it was the right thing to do. now I have my own mind."
"Wow."
"Wow what?"
"Wow. I never knew Draco Malfoy could be so normal and so well not mean."
"Then why did you go out with me?"
"I don't know.. Because your hot, and when you asked me you were so nice to me and you understood I was a girl not just another one of your guy friends."
"Like what Potter and Weasley did?"
"How did you know?"
"Well I have kinda liked you for awhile. I didn't know how to act towards you and your friends cause I was jealous that you hung out with them and I was jealous of them hanging out with you. So I kinda was mean to you and I'm really sorry about that its just.."
"You didn't know how else to act?"
"Yeah."
"I get it. Maybe cause that's why I was so mean to you.." Hermione started to get redder cheeks at that moment.
"Is that why you went out with me?"
"Maybe."
"Ok. so how did it go with Lavender and Parvarti?"
"You haven't heard have you?"
"What?"
"There is going to be a Halloween dance in 6 weeks" Draco said, looking hopeful.
"Oh, so who are you going to take, I want to know who I have to be jealous of"
"You want to be jealous of yourself?"
"What?" Hermione asked looking confused.
"I want to take you, I figure by then they will see something fishy is going on between us. And well can you really trust Lavender and Parvarti with that much of a secret?"
"Hahaha I guess not, but what will people say?"
"That I am going to the dance with the most beautiful girl there!"
"Thanks! And I will be going with the most hansome guy in the school there!"
"Well we better go to lunch soon."
"We still have a half hour!"
"Right! Well have you ever been flying?" At that question Hermione was confused, very confused.
"What do you mean?"
"I want to take you flying over Hogwarts."
"Um. i'm not sure about that."
"Come on I won't let go of you" Then he rushed upstairs just as fast as he came down with his Firebolt 2003. He opened the largest window in the room and motioned Hermione over.
Two minutes later Hermione and Draco were flying above Hogwarts grounds. They could see Hagrid down by his cabbage patch. Draco had them land on the highest tower."Wow the lake is beautiful from up here!"
"Hermione, you are beautiful up here, or anywhere." Then Draco leaned down and kissed her lightly on the lips. It was perfect.
