Chapter Five

"It was pure pleasure,

I have longed for you for so long,

And now you're in my reach,

I can't have you still."

"Okay, now, Granger," Draco Malfoy stated as he took a seat across from the Head Girl. "We're going to start with the basics to make this potion work."

She rolled her eyes. "I know that already, Malfoy," she scoffed.

"Of course," he nodded. "You're a bookworm, after all. You know everything." At this, Hermione glared at him. He chuckled. "Okay, okay, civil. Got you."

"Well, you're starting with the whole 'I'm-better-than-You' thing again," she said irritably. "I suggest that we at least get through the instruction at least once on this whole afternoon."

He agreed.

It was noon and both Heads decided to get the project over and done with in the least of three hours. They could do it, of course, considering that they were both in the Top class and their intellects surpass others. Draco took a small piece of parchment from his book bag and a quill from his left side pocket. He flicked it gently and started to write. Hermione took her own parchment and quill as well and jotted down some of the information about the potion.

Every now and then, Hermione would look up from her parchment and out of the corner of her eye, watched as he wrote down some of his knowledge about the potion. She would smile every so often when he would blow the long locks of his hair out of his eyes. She played with a brown strand of her hair and twirled it around with her forefinger. She sighed.

"Granger," he whispered. "Don't annoy me with your glances. I know I'm gorgeous and that you want to look at me the whole day but please try to concentrate with your own notes."

She snickered. "Oh, the thought is utterly barbaric, Malfoy. I would never do such thing."

"Oh?" Draco questioned, raising his head from his notes. "Is it really?"

"Yes," Hermione said, looking away. "And you were hallucinating. I wasn't looking at you."

He raised a skeptical brow. "I see." He went back on writing.

Hermione blushed. Gosh, what the hell is happening to her?

"You know, Granger," Draco murmured as he never took his eyes off of his paper. "You're a pretty okay Gryff."

She froze and then smiled. He was warming up to her. "You're not bad yourself, Slytherin prince."

He let out a small smile, not very noticeable but she saw it. They continued on in blissful silence.

They had finally noticed the other on their never ending journey to find themselves and yet... there are still obstacles that they have to undergo. Draco sighed, slightly brushing his hand over the palm of Hermione's when she rested it for a while on the top of the table. He shivered. What the?

He looked at Granger and saw that she had noticed it as well. Her face flushed as he caressed her hands and led to her arm. She moaned when he brushed his fingers lightly at the top of her breast area. His fingers rubbed the flesh through the thin cloth that she wore. It was already close to night time and Hermione had took off of her robes except her tee and her pleated skirt. He touched every part of her that he could, with her mind elsewhere as she received the pleasure of his hands on her. He smirked and felt himself harden. He was taking pleasure from this as well.

When she reached to play with his blond tresses, he stopped. Realization decided to hit him when she was finally beginning to crack. What the hell was he doing? He took his hand away from the temptation of her soft skin and stood abruptly, letting his chair fall with a loud thud on the ground. His eyes were wide and was looking at his hands as if it were on fire. He could hear Hermione's whines when he took a step back from the scene.

"What's wrong, Draco?" Her voice held such concern, he couldn't help it anymore. He was getting in too deep.

He darted from the room, ignoring the confused protests of Hermione as he opened the door and left.
