A/N: yeah I've changed the plot a little so you "might" want to read the whole thing over to get what I'm trying to say.
Title: Secret Sinful Kisses
Chapter: Forever
Rating: PG-13
Genre: Angst/Romance
It wasn't long before they were headed towards their final destination. Up the stony cold stairs they went. High above all the things, that surrounded the Hogwarts grounds. Hermoine and Draco choose not to speak through out the whole journey.
The only sounds were of their foots steps. Professor Mc Gonagall waved her wand at each lamp illuminating the darkened way. Thoughts began to run through Hermoine's head.
Surely Dumbledor must be jesting. There must some code of conduct about having two students of the opposite sex in the same room.
The words that Dumbledor said ran through her mind.
"They don't have to share the same room. There's been one for them in The Tower. You did get the information? I wrote it down next to your list of names."
He did say they didn't share the same room. Hermoine breathed deeply and continued to walk silently next to Draco whose face was tormented into a deep grimace. He looked over to Hermoine and groaned inwardly.
Dumbledor is the biggest brute ever. Father was right from the start about him. He probably planned this.
He didn't. It was just by luck.
Now I'm stuck with the mudblood princess. She better not say a damn word to me when we get there. I will not allow her to rule me like she does to her minions.
They stopped short in front of a stone cold wall. Confused looks came across both faces.
Dead end? Draco and Hermoine thought.
Professor Mc Gonagall tapped three stones on the wall with her wand and murmured the password loud and clear." Hippogriff," she exclaimed.
Of course not thought Hermoine.
Draco and Hermoine entered as the stones quickly rearranged themselves into a door that opened pleased with the password.
One side of the room that was guessed to be Draco's area was decorated in green and silver and then gold and red for Hermoine's side. There were two doors one for each one of them Hermoine guessed.
Draco noticed that their luggage was already brought up the stairs near the different two doors. Professor Mc Gonagall gave Hermoine a faint smile.
She knew Hermoine didn't like the idea of even sharing the same breathing space with Draco. Hermoine smiled a little to assure her that she would be okay, and with a nod Mc Gonagall left them to themselves.
The closing of the door echoed emphasizing how alone they became. Hermoine and Draco stared at one another. They never knew it would all come down to this.
Suddenly, Draco walked past Hermoine bumping into her shoulder purposely to go to his room. He angrily slammed the door shut, leaving Hermoine alone in the main room. Hermione rubbed her shoulder scowling at Draco.
"That's a first," she said looking around the beautifuly decorated room. She wanted to explore the surroundings that she would be living in. A hall leading out the main room twisted and turned down to another door caught her sight.
Curiously, Hermoine walked along the path finally ending to the mysterious door. With a soft click of the door, she turned and then stepped inside instantly taken back by what she saw.
Draco plopped himself on the bed in fury. This wasn't supposed to happen to him- a Malfoy. He grabbed one of the pillows and placed it over his face thinking of taking his own life before he killed her,but stopped when there was silence.
He took the pillow off his face and stared at the ceiling…silence. Draco stood up off the bed suddenly. Why was it so quiet? What was Hermoine doing? It had been two hours.
He sprang towards the door.
Hermoine smiled brightly. She had her own library about almost as big as the main one in Hogwarts. She happily ran over to the shelves, savoring each touch on the spine of the books.
Books on Magical Creatures she haven't read on before, books on Wizard Studies, books on Healing potions, on Dreams, on…just about everything. She grabbed a random book and smiled at her choice.
" 'Dreams and You' by Trenzila Angreanda," she smiled and plopped herself in a black loft couch. She could spend her whole year in here without seeing Draco's sneering face.
Draco stopped himself short inches away from the door handle from leaving this room.He sighed and closed it once again. Why was he worried about her? She wasn't in his way so why go in hers?
She was probably resting anyway. Draco moved his trunk to the front of his bed. He was going to unpack his things.
His clothes were placed in the drawer next to his nightstand. Draco rummaged through more of his things when his hand hit something sharp. He pulled his hand back quickly revealing a deep cut on his fingertip.
He sucked the cut cursing lowly at the sight of blood. He didn't like blood it made him nauseous. He angrily peered at what punctured his finger, ready to scowl at the object and fling it across the room. But to his merry surprise it was a picture frame.
Draco pulled it out and smiled sweetly. It was a photo of his friends. Marcus and Pansy held hands and smiled at him, to the middle Warrington, Blaise, and Montague leaned roguishly on each others shoulders with amused grins, and to the far right was another girl with dirty blonde hair and gray eyes, almost a fierce and intense as his own, holding Draco close.
She laughed and waved at him, and so did he. Draco smiled up at himself from the moving picture. She kissed him on his cheek and Draco blushed as he kissed her back timdly.
Pictures are forever.
Her name was Hermis and she was gone… forever.
A sadden smile came slow across his lips. Draco placed the frame next to his nightstand. He wouldn't let his emotions get the best of him.
Next chapter will be much longer I 'pinky' promise.
