Last time on The Last Chance!…
Draco sat down and the entire table, including Crabbe and Goyle, was glaring at him as though he were a trader.
Some of the girls even looked sorry for him as though it was a shame to lose someone with his good looks.
Draco did the only thing he could do.
Ignore them until the noise came back.
He looked around the Great Hall with a glare like he would have if the rumor were of something other than the fact of his heritage.
As this glare passed over the room students turned away and began talking.
He was for once thankful for the noise in the Great Hall as he grabbed some food.
Now on The Last Chance!…
When Hermione sat down she blushed as she grabbed some food. Luckily the sound started up again and she sighed as she turned to take a glance at Draco who looked positively miserable. Hermione frowned until he looked her way and then she gave him a reassuring smile. He smiled lightly back and continued to eat what was on his plate. Hermione turned back to her friends who were grinning cheekily. Hermione smiled.
"What?" She asked putting her fork down and placing her hands under her chin and her elbows on the table curiously.
"I just never thought I'd see the day." Harry began.
"So is he a good kisser?" Ginny interrupted with interest.
Harry and Ron quickly turned to her with a glare. Ginny however pretended not to notice. Hermione blushed and nodded.
"Aww." Ginny and half the girls listening in on their conversation sighed.
Harry and Ron looked around in disbelief.
Throughout dinner Hermione took repeated glances at Draco and always found he was looking at her. She'd smile and he'd smile then she'd turn back to her friends with a sigh and occasionally taking a bite of her meal before turning back to him once again. Ginny found it positively adorable and would often take glances at Harry who was in a heated discussion with Ron about Quidditch. She didn't think much of it and eventually joined in to the conversation and successfully giving her opinion.
When the meal ended all students were sent out of the Great Hall. Hermione had to have been the first one up at Gryffindor and quickly 'walked' to the door. Draco also ran to the door and when they reached one another they took one another's hands before exiting as slowly as humanly possible. As they walked many people made comments but they ignored them. Harry, Ron and Ginny followed but Ron also seemed to be distracted.
He glanced around the corridors quickly and sighed with a frown on his face after searching the large group many times over.
"What's wrong?" Harry asked as his friend stopped walking.
Ron turned to him and immediately blushed.
"Uh…it's nothing." He said quickly before trying to escape the crowd.
As he walked he bumped into someone. As he looked down at the girl before him his eyes lit up.
"H-hey Sarah…um…I was just looking for you." He said with a blush.
Sarah nodded while biting her lip.
"I saw you." She said with a grin.
Ron gave a half smile and nodded sheepishly.
"You're cute when you blush." Sarah commented while reaching up and brushing some red hair out of his eyes.
He smiled down at her not at all surprised as her hand lingered on his cheek.
"I'll see you around?" She asked as one of her friends got her attention.
"Uh…yea definitely." He said with a nod.
"Good night Sarah." Ron said before giving her a quick kiss on the cheek and leaving.
Sarah blushed and bit her bottom lip as she headed away with her friend, not without giving a few backwards glances at Ron who continued to stand in the middle of the corridor waving like a complete fool.
"Not even you can ruin this mood Ginny so will you please shut up?" Ron asked getting irritated and yet still smiling.
"I can't help it! You were just so funny! Uh yea…definitely, night Sarah! I'll be dreaming of you! MUAH MUAH MUAH!" Ginny said imitating her brother as best she could before breaking out in a fit of laughter.
Harry rolled his eyes. Ginny fell to the couch and grinned.
"I'm sorry, really…" She began.
"This is great isn't it? We're all together." Ginny said happily.
Both boys gave her an odd look.
She rolled her eyes.
"You know, Hermione has Malfoy, Harry has me and you have Sarah. It's all so romantic!" Ginny sighed.
The boys looked at one another with an expression resembling disgust and confusion and in Ron's case, a grin.
"Right Gin." They both said before leaving to the boy's dormitory.
Ginny shrugged and turned to look for someone to talk to. Where was Hermione anyway?
Hermione and Draco wandered the halls still holding hands.
"Who knew you were this much fun Granger…" Draco began with a sideways glance.
Hermione turned to him and smacked him playfully on the arm.
"Why you…" She began but he blocked her attempts effortlessly and grinned.
"So, what do you want to do at Hogsmeade?" He asked curiously before letting her arms go.
"I don't really care." Hermione said truthfully with a shrug as she continued down the hallway with Draco trailing her with a smile.
"Guess I should get you to your dorm my lady before wonder boy and his sidekick try to beat me up." Draco said with a smirk.
Hermione nodded and they walked to the common room.
"Are you sure you'll be alright in your dorm?" Hermione asked somewhat worriedly.
Draco smiled.
"Yeah, I'll survive." Draco shrugged.
"We'll be old news by tomorrow." Draco said confidently.
Hermione gave him a not so believing look which made him laugh.
"Don't worry so much Granger." Draco said out of habit as they stopped near the portrait.
Hermione wrapped her arms around Draco and gave him a kiss. When they finally separated Draco nodded.
"Maybe I should stay with you…" Draco said before kissing her again.
Ron's eyes snapped open and he turned to his clock and sighed before shutting his eyes once again. He sat up a moment later and sighed loudly after examining the clock.
"Ron, will you PLEASE just go to sleep it's really annoying when you sigh every five seconds." Harry complained while rolling over away from his friend.
"Sorry Harry, I can't help it." Ron said before placing his arms behind his head and smiling at the ceiling.
"Just try, we still have another ten minutes before we have to be up…" Harry trailed off with a yawn as he began to fall into a deep sleep.
Sadly, he was woken up immediately by the alarm clock. Ron shot out of bed with a grin and ran to the bathroom. Harry sighed as he glared at his alarm clock and began mumbling under his breath about waking up at an unholy hour. As Ron finished he found Harry and they walked down to the common room. After making small talk they looked around for Ginny and Hermione. However before examining the entire common room a scream was heard and almost immediately muffled from the girl's dormitory. Harry and Ron looked to one another before staring up the staircase curiously.
Ginny's eyes fluttered open as she rolled over and hugged her pillow close. She sighed dreamily as she thought back to her night sleep. She grinned at the thought of her dreams with Harry. Ginny slowly pulled herself out of bed and stretched before standing up and walking to get her clothes. As she stood up she looked over to Hermione's bed expecting her friend's bed to be made and the said girl to be missing from the bed. However, that was not the case this morning. In fact, another body lay next to Hermione in a very close embrace. Ginny screamed at the sight of Malfoy in her friend's bed before covering her mouth quickly to stifle her scream.
Ginny rushed to Hermione's bed and shook Hermione roughly.
"Huh? Ginny? What are you doing?" Hermione said tiredly as she stared at her friend.
"Hermione! I never would…how are you…wow." Ginny whispered with confusion, surprise and a grin.
"What on earth are you on about?" Hermione asked in a regular tone.
Ginny opened her mouth to reply but Hermione felt a pair of strong arms wrap around her more tightly as a face snuggled into her neck. She gasped.
"Draco." She whispered.
"Uh…yea, how are you going to get him out without anyone seeing? How'd you get him up here?" Ginny asked more curiously.
Hermione blushed.
"I'll explain later if you help me get him out." Hermione said pleadingly.
Ginny sighed and nodded.
"I'll check to see if the coast is clear and you wake him up." Ginny said before running to the door and making sure no other girl was up.
Hermione elbowed Draco lightly as he groaned into her hair.
"Draco…you have to get up now baby." Hermione giggled in somewhat of a panicked voice.
Draco's eyes opened slowly and he smiled at her before kissing her on the cheek.
"Who's the baby…" He immediately sat straight up on one arm and stared at her shocked.
"You're not…I mean we didn't…" Draco began panicked.
Hermione rolled her eyes.
"No we didn't and I'm not. Honestly, what kind of a person do you think I am?" She whispered.
"Come on, I have to get you out of here." Hermione began to get up out of bed when Draco pulled her back.
"But I'm not ready to go." Draco said with a pout.
Hermione smiled at his childlessness.
"Everyone's going to be up in a minute so you have to leave." Hermione said sternly before standing up and taking his hand and dragging him out of bed.
"Gin is the coast clear?" Hermione asked as they reached the door.
Ginny shook her head with a hurt expression on her face.
"Seamus and Dean are downstairs talking to Harry and Ron." Ginny explained.
"Oh great!" Hermione said hitting her head.
"Wait, ask Harry for his invisibility cloak after getting rid of Seamus and Dean…please Ginny?" Hermione pleaded.
"Oh alright." Ginny sighed before leaving and mumbling about men showing up in dorm rooms.
Hermione sighed thankfully as Seamus and Dean left to the Great Hall no doubt and Harry went to his staircase for the cloak. Ginny winked up at the door knowing they were watching and she grinned.
Ginny immediately ran up the stairs and threw the cloak over Draco.
"Thanks." He mumbled irritated.
He poked his head out and kissed Hermione before leaving the dorm and sliding down the slide like stairs and walked out of the room. The girls got dressed quickly and ran down to explain to Ron and Harry what had happened.
"What was that?" Ron asked looking from the portrait to their stairs.
"Draco was in Hermione's bed last night." Ginny answered.
Harry and Ron's mouths dropped open.
"Why would he be in there? What a pervert! You know you can dump him Hermione, we'll protect you won't we Harry?" Ron asked turning to his dark haired friend.
Harry gave Hermione a curious look.
"How'd he get up the staircase?" Harry asked raising an eyebrow at Hermione who was blushing and glaring at Ginny.
"What does it matter? The point is he can get in and…well you know! Take advantage of our dear friend! Do you want that to happen?" Ron continued to ramble on.
"Ron he didn't sneak in…I uh…well…I invited him." Hermione said with a shrug and quickly went out of the portrait hole to the Great Hall.
"You can't be serious 'Mione!" Ron gaped.
"Honestly Ron, I'm not a child I know what I'm doing and before you get any wild ideas in your head I did not sleep with him." Hermione cleared up.
Ron shut his mouth obviously about to ask that question.
"Alright good…but why invite him up?" Ron asked.
Hermione frowned.
"I don't know…I didn't want him to go to his dorm…it doesn't matter." Hermione finished sternly before they all entered the room.
"Of course it matters!" Ron began angrily.
Before he could continue however Sarah walked up to him with a grin.
"Hey Ron." She said with a smile.
Ron turned to her with a smile as well.
"Hey Sarah." He said forgetting all about Hermione.
"I was wondering…um…well if you want to that is, if you'd like to sit with me?" Sarah asked.
Ron nodded like a fool and Harry couldn't help thinking his friend had already become whipped after not even two days of meeting this girl.
"Sure, I'd love to. Uh…see you guys." He said with a grin before following Sarah to her table like a puppy.
Hermione sighed thankful he was gone. They all sat down and Hermione glanced over and noticed Draco was missing.
"Probably just changing." She told herself before turning back to her food and trying to ignore the feeling of dread that washed over her.
