Chapter 14: The Gorgeous Sleeping Angel
Herm's POV
The sun's early beams of light settled in through the windows of Draco's room and rested over my closed eyes. I groaned and turned away from the window onto my side, curling myself into a tight little ball. I tried my hardest to resume my deep slumber, but when I failed, I cursed the blasted light that woke me. I sighed and stretched with my eyes tightly closed. When I loosened my muscles once again, I allowed my eyes to flicker open.
It was then that I came face to face with Draco. He had a smile warmer than the sun's rays and his eyes had restored to their normal silver blue. I breathed a sigh of relief. The potion had worked. Although I knew without asking that my plan had been a success, I was eager to hear how he was feeling,
"How was your sleep? " I asked in almost a whisper, afraid that I could brake the beautiful simplicity of the moment they were sharing.
His smile grew and he reached out with one hand and started tracing the edges of my face, "It was the best rest that I have had in a long time." I breathed a sigh of relief and closed my eyes, feeling a tingle where his finger had traced, "Thank you, love." My heart skipped at the sound of this caring Slytherin call me "love".
I took the time to look down at his body, which was no longer half naked but fully dressed in his school robes. His hair, damp and combed but showed no signs of the grease he had used earlier in the year. He gave off a sent of spice which tickled my nose. I looked back up to his eyes and commented; " You have been up for quite some time?"
He nodded, "I didn't want to wake you. You looked like a little angel sleeping on a cloud."
I could feel my cheeks start to burn, "I am nowhere near as cute as an angel!"
"Of course you were." He assured me. But I ignored him and shook my head.
Draco's smile momentarily disappeared into a serious face seeming as if he were contemplating something in his head, "Well, then again, now that I think about it. You were rather hideous." he teased. My jaw dropped and my eyes widened, though there was still a hint of a smile at the very corners of my mouth. But don't you think you a second that he would stop teasing there. Oh, no! He seemed to be very satisfied with the reaction he was getting and carried on, "Oh, yes! You were just beastly when you stretched, as well! Like a Fire-breathing dragon!"
By his last comment I was pushing him off the bed with my hands a feet laughing like a little girl. It was when he made his last sly attempted to tease me that I gave one last push with all my might and he vanished over the side of the bed and landed with a loud THUD on the floor.
Giggling I scrambled over to the other side of the bed. I peeked my head over the side and scolded playfully, "Serves you right. I'll have you know I make a gorgeous sleeping angel."
Draco lying with his back to the floor grinned and nodded, "Yes you do."
Feeling victorious, and just a bit bold, I slipped out of his bed and straddled him, with one knee on each side, then placing my rear gently onto his stomach, surprising myself with my brave playful behavior.
Draco had a look of pleased shock on his face. I grinned with accomplishment that I, Hermione Granger, could surprise even The Great Draco Malfoy. I eased my upper body down to his and whispered in his ear, "Your gorgeous sleeping angel." I brought my face a little ways above his and I could feel him straining his neck to touch my lips. While I was in this position I felt a sense of complete control and was ready to use it to my advantage. I teased him, hovering my lips just out of his reach. Then I dipped my neck the smallest bit closer and touched his parted mouth with mine and briskly pulled a away so our breath mingled for a few moments but never letting him pull me in too far.
I soon found myself longing to press my lips to his and lowered my entire body a couple inches. Draco took this as a sign that he could allow himself a little more contact. For in the next moment I found myself lost in the energy Draco was placing into this kiss.
I then realized that he was not the only one who was throwing himself wholeheartedly into it. But I was also pressing all my care for him with my hands and lips.
I was frightened and thrilled with this serious exchange of emotion. Never had I felt what I was feeling at this moment with Draco. I could feel one of his hands working under my shirt to my lower back pulling me lower. As he did this, I deepened the kiss to let him know that I was ok with his decision. His other hand was gently running his fingers through my tresses of hair. His breathed was becoming hard and ragged, as was mine. Yet neither of us wanted to break what was building up.
I could feel his hand on my back hesitate to go a little lower but as I once again deepened the kiss he was reassured and let his hand gently rub my lower back. I could hardly hold all the hunger for him inside me and though I felt he was kissing me with more passion then I have ever experienced, I had a feeling he was still resisting. I decided to extend my feelings further out so as to show him that I was afraid too, but that we should not fear the feelings we felt for each other. I started to use my hands to show him.
My right hand crept up his neck and was soon to be buried by his hair. Then with my left hand I slid under his robes and eagerly took in his muscles underneath his shirt.
It was when I was doing my exploring with my hands that I felt Draco come out of his shell and pull me flat against him. It was here that I couldn't resist letting out a slight moan of utter pleasure. At any other point in my life, I would have blushed myself to the point where I would look like a ripe tomato. But I didn't.
However at that moment our pleasure was brought to an abrupt end when there was a voice at the door and then the sound of the door latch clicking open. The kiss broke and Quick Thinking Me rolled under the bed allowing Draco to jump to his feet by the time the door was ajar. Even underneath the bed I could hear Draco's rough breathing, or maybe that was mine. Either way the person standing at the door didn't seem to notice anything out of the ordinary.
"Ummm Draco. Crabb and I hav' been waitin' in the common room for fifteen minutes cause we's know's you like to go to the Great 'all earlys."
Draco was still definitely catching his breath, "Damn it, Goyle, just go to the Great Hall alone, will you?!" Goyle started to leave, a perpetually confused look on his face, when Draco asked, "Wait! is there anybody in the common room?" I couldn't hear Goyal's answer probably because he either shook or nodded his head. Whatever his answer was Draco seemed satisfied and snapped, "Ok, then you can go. "
"You sures your ok, Malfoy? You look kindas flushy."
"I'm fine. Could you just go?" Goyal didn't move, "Now?" as though slowly processing this he must have left because the door was shut and Draco whispered,
"All right, come on out, pet." I eased my way out and was caught off guard, for once I was clear of the bed, Draco lifted me like a little girl onto my feet. Then when I was supporting myself he tenderly took my chin with his forefinger and thumb and moved my head around looking to see if I had hurt myself while rolling under his bed. I hadn't noticed that I had scraped the upper right corner of my forehead until Draco pointed it out,
"I'm sorry." he apologized sincerely.
I giggled and gave him a tough girl look, puckering up my lips and furrowing my brow, and teased, "I think I'll survive."
Draco face of concern broke into a sly grin, lowering his hand from my face. He glanced out the window to see the sun almost fully risen, "We better start heading down to the Great Hall right after you get dressed."
I nodded and started looking for my robes and shoes. Within five minutes I was ready to go. I had dressed and splashed my face with a bit of cold water. When I came back into his room I looked around for the small vile that had been sitting on the night stand and spoke over my shoulder to Draco, "I'll try to get the ingredients to make a larger amount of this Potion in the Library. It shouldn't be too hard to find. And I'll get back to you on when it will be finished."
I turned around to face him standing at the door waiting for me. For a second I saw a glint of sadness, which was replaced just as fast with one of tender care and appreciation. Charmed, I walked over to him with the small vile safely tucked away in my robes.
"Don't worry. I'll make it as fast as I can."
He shook his head and pull me closer to him so I was practically folded in his arms. He looked down into my eyes and murmured, "I...I just wanted to...I-I have no idea... what I would do without you."
I sighed sunk into his arms and rested my head under his chin. For a brief moment I thought he was going to say the magic words of the heart....
Though I could settle for these for now. I felt myself smiling as I looked up and reminded him, "We should really consider leaving now."
Draco grinned and rolled his eyes and once again teased, "Fine. Ruin the moment Hermione!"
I giggled as he opened the door, though quickly silenced myself as we breezed by the Slytherin Common Room. Yet nothing could banish the satisfied grin smeared across my face as we escaped into the corridors.
