Dramione

Hermione watched in horror as Blaise closed in on here.

'What is he doing? Oh Gods what is he doing?'

As Blaise came to Hermione's knees at her chair, he looked towards Draco, and Draco ordered her to stand. She very much un-willingly complied.

After she was standing, Blaise started to circle her very slowly. When he was at her right shoulder, he bent his head down and nuzzled her ear. Hermione shuddered and he breathed in deep, as if sucking in her soul. Finally he spoke.

"So, Granger, you're shivering." He said, still circling her.

"Cold." She lied immediately. Even in the face of danger, her Gryffindor pride would not allow her to admit that she was scared.

At her answer, Blaise started to walk towards her, and on instinct Hermione back up as well. After several strides, Hermione's back hit the cold stonewall, and once again she shivered again. Blaise smirked and closed the gap between them.

"Are you still cold?" He asked, caressing her cheek slowly.

Hermione flinched away from him and looked up at the ceiling. "No."

Suddenly Blaise back up and nodded towards Draco. He then walked out of the room. Draco took Blaise's place. She was about to speak when Draco put a finger up to her lips, silencing her.

"Shhhhh…" he muttered.

Hermione's blood boiled as she went quite.

Draco also started circling her as Blaise had earlier. Another wave of fear quickly washed over her.

This time Draco stopped behind her and moved his mouth close to her neck. He moved his head down a little and quickly he flicked his tongue out, a snake would, tasting her flesh. He sighed in slight ecstasy.

"Blaise was right… You're interestingly delicious for a Mudblood…"

Hermione shuddered, more than she had when it was Draco. As Draco started up his 'examining' again, there was a sharp knock on the door. Draco froze and said, "Get in the closet and lock it. Don't come out until I say!"

Hermione hurried into the closet, and not long after, Draco opened the door. Hermione's blood turned from boiling to freezing as she heard Snape's voice. She listened intently to their muffled conversation.

"Good evening Mr. Malfoy. What brings you down to your study? It's rare that you're down here…" Snape said, letting himself into the room. He sat down in the chair Hermione was previously sitting.

"Oh, I was just having a read. The main Common Room gets a little… passionate at this time of night."

"I see…" Snape stood up again. "Now onto why I'm really here. Have you seen Miss Granger lately? Dumbledore wants you two to patrol tonight. I want you to go and fetch her, ok?"

"Yeah, I was just heading out. Goodnight, Professor." Draco said.

Snape nodded and walked out of the room.

Hermione could hear Draco's footsteps and she moved farther into the coat closet. She didn't want to patrol the halls with him. Just her luck.

As the closet door swung open, Draco didn't see Hermione. He sighed and walked in, groping around for her. As his hands touched something soft, his realized that he was touching her neck.

He slowly sighed. He had always had an un-healthy fetish for necks. The stupid necklaces that they were always had him frustrated. The smooth nape of their necks always had an unusual effect on him. He slowly caressed her neck, losing himself in her soft skin. When he ran his hand over it completely, he was delighted when he found that she wasn't wearing a necklace.

Confused, Hermione broke the silence.

"M-M-Malfoy?" she gasped.

His eyes shot open and he stopped caressing her neck.

"C'mon." He said, backing away from her and out of the closet. "We have to patrol the hallways."

Hurriedly Hermione followed him.

By the time Hermione was up in the Slytherin common room, Draco was just shutting the portrait hole.

Quickly she ran across the common room, and she was so close- when she was stopped by Blaise.

"Going somewhere?" He asked, looking down at her from his 5' 8" to her 5' 4".

"Uh, yeah. I have Head Girl duties."

"Really, now? Mind if I join you?"

Suddenly Hermione's 'Gryffindor' side took over.

"Mr. Zabini, if you don't get out of my way right now, it'll be detention for a month. Now, are you going to move?"

Blaise's eyes narrowed slightly, and he moved out of the way. Hermione smirked. She had won this round.

As Hermione entered the hallway, its abrupt chill surprised her. It was as if Dementors were lurking in every corner. Determined to do something right tonight, Hermione headed up towards the main halls.

Upon reaching them, her footsteps started to make a small splashing noise. She looked down. There was a small coating of water all around the floor. Her eyebrows slowly crawled together. As she walked forward, the water deepened.

'Where is this water coming from?'

She looked back behind her and saw that the water was slowly flowing down into the dungeons. She turned back around and walked into the Great Hall. It was up to her knees.

Carefully she waded through the Hall and towards the main doors. Horrified she saw that the water was positively rushing from a huge crack in the door. She looked around and saw Draco sitting on the Grand staircase, away from the water. He was watching the water calmly. Hermione glared.

"Malfoy, how long has this been going on?" She asked, her voice echoing and slowly mixing in with the flow of the water.

"When I first came up here it was only an inch deep. It's been rising fast."

Stupid ferret.

"Why haven't you notified anyone?"

Draco snorted. "I tried, Mudblood. They're all outside trying to get the lake under control. One of the underground lakes seems to have overflowed."

"Oh."

"Get up here Granger, before you fall." He paused and realized what he had said. "Actually, stay down there if you want."

She glared at him and waded over to the stairs, and trudged up the stairs. As she climbed out of the water, her weight seemed to get heavier. Suddenly she tripped and fell back into the freezing water. Without managing to get one feeble breath, she went under.
