A week later, Hermione found herself pleading with Professor Snape to allow her friends to come visit her.

"The answer is no, how many ways do I need to say it for you to get, I do not want Potter or Weasley in my house!" Snape practically yelled at the brunette sitting across from him at breakfast.

"I only want the weekend. It's not like I want them to come for the rest of the summer, I know that wont happen, I just want one weekend." Hermione pleaded to the man, shocking herself that she was on the verge of getting on her knees and groveling.

The corners of his mouth twitched in amusement that one of the 'Golden Gryffindors' was begging him, "I said no. I thought the almighty Granger would understand a word as simple as that."

'Uhhh!' Hermione thought to herself, she was beginning to become completely annoyed, "Fine, if Harry and Ron can't come, then can Ginny please come for the weekend? Please?"

'Hmm' Severus thought to himself, 'the Weaslette, wasn't as bad as Potter or Weasley, and if I agree this will end this blasted conversation that's been going on for almost 20 minutes.'

"Fine. But after she's gone, I don't want to hear a single word about any of them coming here any time soon." He announced in a tone that told her it was final and he left the room before she could protest.

That evening Ginny arrived with Mrs. Weasley who instantly began to fuss over Hermiones' encounter with Lucius. With Professor Snape no where to be found, Draco was there until the mention of that night and his father. Upon hearing it, he quickly left saying he was taking Ginny's bag upstairs not to be seen the rest of the night.

Soon Ginny was with Hermione in her room talking about what had happened. When Hermione had told her about how Draco had reacted when he saw his father the girl began to giggle.

"Oh, I was right!" she exclaimed, seeing her friends' dumbfounded look she said, "Remember, I told you he has something for a certain brunette he'll be spending the summer with. I was so right!" She began to giggle again.

Hermione could feel her cheek's began to flush red, she hadn't mentioned anything about what happened after Snape had left them and she was sure if she wanted to, at least not yet.

Too late, Ginny could read her face like a book, "Spill it. Spill it now. I know there's something you are not telling me." Her voice filled with eagerness and a look of utter curiosity on her freckled face.

"...Um, I told you what happened, that's it. That's all that... Oh fine." Knowing full well that there was no way the girl would give up until she knew every detail, she told her how they decided it was best if she slept in Draco's room.

"So what happened when you two went to bed? Huh, don't tell me something didn't happen. She asked impatiently.

"Nothing rea ... fine, we were talking and he told me at the beginning of our 6th year, he never would have thought in a million years that we would have ended up as such close friends. He said he cared about me, then..." She stopped there not sure if she really wanted to say it.

"WHAT? Then what, you cant stop there, what happened?" Ginny yelled in frustration that she stopped.

"Then he leaned over and ... gave me a kiss, then said good night." She was beginning to blush just thinking about it, it may have been a short quick kiss but it still left her with butterflies in her stomach wanting more.

"Yeah! I told you. But hold up I know there's something else. Don't make me hex you."

"Um, well when we woke up we were wrapped in each other's arms." Oh that sounds a little cheesy but it was great, it felt like I was meant to be there, in his arms.

"Mmmm, and you doubted me. So what's happened since then? Been snogging each others' brains out?"

"Nothing actually. Every time I think he's gonna do something Snapes pops in the room." She said more than a little disappointed.

As she laid there in the dark room, the only sounds coming from Ginnys' slow steady breaths, her mind began to think back. Back to when it all changed between Draco and herself. How things just feel into place like it was destined for him to be a positive part in her life, her white knight.
