Chapter 4: Hermione's New House
Hermione walked down from the level she was on, and stood next to Draco, and whispered in his ear, "So how do you like me now?" All Draco could do was nod. She took Draco's hand and said, "Headmaster, I think I can find my way around the castle with my guide." She lean against Malfoy and sneered at Dumbledore. Malfoy finally got his vocal cords back and leaned to Hermione and said, "Come on 'Mione, lets leave this dump." Hermione took his hand and waltzed out of the door, leaning on Draco. He turned to Hermione and told her something he had been holding back since the train ride. " 'Mione, I wanted to tell you on the train that I loved you. I wanted you know that earlier, but I knew that we would be slaughter if people found out about the Slytherin who was going out with the Gryffindor. But now we are in the same house I don't think people will bug us about anything." She looked up at him and smiled, "I love you too, and I have since last year at the Quidditch game when Slytherin won, and Harry got hit by a bludger. I remember that you caught the snitch right in front of me, and when Harry got hit, you got me on your broom and flew me over there… Why did you do that?" Malfoy looked away from Hermione, and simply said, "Because I knew it would make you happy…" She smiled and pulled her hair back into part up, part down, school girl style, and wrapped her arms around Draco's muscular ones, and fell in step with him. As they were walking along, Ron saw the back of Hermione's head, and knew it was her because he was always asking her to put it like that, and she always did that when she wanted to surprise him. He looked next to her and saw what looked like Malfoy, but he knew that they were the worst kind of enemies. He jogged up behind them and said in his sweetest voice, "Hey 'Mione, baby." Without turning around she said, "Don't call me that any more Weasel-Bee!" Ron stopped in his tracks, 'Did she just call him what he thought she called him? No not his 'Mione! She would never do anything like that!' He reached over and turned Hermione around, and consequently, Draco turned with her. Ron didn't even notice Draco. "Hermione what's wrong, and why are you dressed like that?" Hermione rolled her eyes, "Actually for once, everything is right, my clothes, my house, my life, so buzz off Weasel-Bee before you ruin it! And no I'm not your 'Mione any more," she sneered at Ron and then turned to Draco. "I'm his." She leaned against him and kissed him more passionately then she had ever kissed Ron. Draco looked up from the kiss after about 30 full seconds of full lip contact, and sneered at Ron, "Hey you heard my baby, leave, NOW!" She laughed at Ron's face and then started to kiss Draco again, and this time Ron left broken hearted. When Ron was out of earshot and the kiss had ended, Draco said, "Wow, you're the best kisser I've ever met." She simply said back, "It's because I have the best person to kiss ever."
They finally reached the Slytherin common room. Draco, being the only one of the two to know the password, whispered it to Hermione. She spoke it with precision, like it was her own tongue. "Sssaallis toomo!" The port opened to the parsiltongue, and the couple stepped in. Draco showed 'Mione around the common room, and then brought her up stairs to gather all of her Gryffindor stuff to place in the fire to burn. There was a picture of Ron, which all she did was look at it and it spontaneously combusted. Draco carried down all of the Gryffindor items, and gathered everyone around to see the burning. When all the people were gathered around the fire, one person noticed her as Hermione Granger, the sickly smart Gryffindor, and that started a small riot. Draco pulled out his wand and yelled, "SHUT UP!!!" Now that he had gotten everyone's attention, he calmly introduced his new girlfriend. "This is Hermione Granger, BUT she has changed. She asked the Sorting Hat to sort her out of Gryffindor, and even before she had the hat on, it screamed Slytherin. I bet many of you have seen her 'accidentally' in our corridors, and then see her turn and run. She was looking for me. I am officially her boyfriend, and if anyone even thinks other wise --" He was cut off my Hermione saying, "I will personally make sure that the light of day is something you will never see again." Draco smiled, and they kissed. "As you know, my baby is from the Gryffindor house, so she does have some Gryffindor stuff, which will not exist in a little while." He motioned from the pile of random stuff to the fire, and many people cheered. He leaned over and whispered in Hermione's ear, "Why don't you and I get out of here while they destroy all of your old things?" Instead of saying anything, she simply kissed him and headed towards the boy's dormitories. Draco smiled and jogged up to her, and picked her up, carrying her like she was as light as a feather up the stairs to his dorm.
