Chapter 7 : More than Meets the Eye

"The goblet of fire never lies" the words of Professor Dumbledore kept playing over and over in Hermione's mind.

"Marriage?" How could it be? Draco thought half amused, half shocked.

Impossible! They both agreed in their hearts as they followed Dumbledore to their dormitory.

"Here we are." The professor beckoned them to the giant portrait on the wall.

A married couple was kissing passionately.

However, their faces were just a blur blob of paint.

"Marriage!" Draco said in a clear voice.

The portrait splitted in the middle, revealing the magnificent common room.

"Alright, I'll leave you two to explore your room alone then. Have an early night. Good nite!" The professor bade with a wink.

"How can this be compared to the Malfoy Manor?" Draco boasted, smirking haughtily.

Hermione stared at him in bewilderment.

I guess some things never ever changed. She thought, smiling.

She gaped at the beautiful furniture in the common room.

The wooden furniture were lacquered till they shone.

Finally her gaze fell on Draco.

He was staring intently at her, smiling, fantasizing.

"What are you looking at?" She asked innocently.

She walked over and flashed him her dazzling, mysterious smile.

He melted.

"You…" He breathed into her ears, sending a shiver down her spine.

"Me? What?" She replied flirtiously.

"You're sexy!"

She opened her mouth to tease him again and he brought a kiss down her lips.

Fireworks exploded in her mind.

This was the third time he had kissed her and yet she still felt the thrill of it.

This is one boy I gotta have! She thought, kissing him back enthusiastically.

They collapsed onto the couch.

His tongue wiggling, begging entrance.

She willingly obliged as he slid his tongue in.

She let out a moan. She was loving it.

They explored each other's mouth, as they lashed about playfully.

Then he slipped her tank top over her shoulders then down, revealing a lacy black bra.

She started undoing his shirt. Revealing his muscular body.

She was glad that the magic between them was still lingering.

But she know it will fade away. Soon.

A slytherin and a gryffindor will never be together.

Like as before.

He slid his hands around her waist then brought up to unclasp her bra.

She ran her fingers across his body and down to his pants into his silk boxers.

Things were getting exciting!

When someone interrupt.

Speaking of the devil. Hermione thought irritably

"Wha…" Ron muttered.

Hermione and Draco looked up, startled.

Hermione hurriedly pull her strap over her shoulders.

"Ron!" Hermione finally broke the awkward silence. "What're you doing here? How did you get in?"

Draco as stunned, said "Well, if it isn't weasel looking for mudblood?"

He pushed her away in faked disgust.

"Here, you can have her back." Draco smirked, grabbed his robe and made his way to the bedroom.

Hermione stare helplessly after him.

She felt like a whore.

How could he? She was left in the lurch alone. Who could she trust?

Without thinking, she called out to Draco.

He whipped his head and wink at her.

So he was still afraid to lose his pride. Fuck! She thought, hurt.

"Hermione! How could you? Do you know who he is?" The string of questions came pouring out of Ron's mouth.

Hermione hurriedly pressed her lips to his to shut him up.

He moaned in happiness.

Finally she released. He looked daze. There was a delighted look on his face.

He was craving for more.

"I…I'll see y…you round?" Ron smiled, a stupid look on his face.

Hermione nodded and smiled with relief.

Ron left and she collapsed onto the couch.

Hermione's P.O.V

Ron's so naïve. As if I'll ever fall for him. And what's Draco up to? Why is he so damn fickle-minded? Thought I could start to trust him. I guess a 'Malfoy's pride' is more important to him. After all, he's a slytherin. And one can never trust a slytherin. Especially not the slytherin prince. So why do I feel so hurt and betrayed? Do I treat him as just a friend or is there more to it?

End of P.O.V

Meanwhile Draco was lying on his bed thinking.

Draco felt a stab of guilt.

He chided himself for it.

Draco's P.O.V

How do I really feel bout her? Am I faking my feelings for her? She's a mudblood after all. So why should I feel so guilty? Are we even just friends or is there more than meets the eye?

End of P.O.V
