A/N Lovely reviewers…I got a total of 2 reviews!! Whoopie!!! And both were friends of mine. So where the heck have you all gone? If I don't get at least 5 reviews for this chapter, I WILL STOP WRITING THIS STORY. The more reviews I get, the faster the chapters come. If the reviews stop, then how the heck am I supposed to be motivated to sit down for hours and pound out another chapter? Why would I do that when I could sit with my feet up and write my book? So PLEASE REVIEW!!!

Chapter 6

As Hermione and Draco walked under the arch of roses and onto the vacant field they had decorated, everyone's eyes were on them. The two made a dazzling couple and everyone wondered who they were. The girls were all wishing they had gone with the mysterious wizard in the silver cloak and green mask. The other wizards found themselves jealous of that wizard and wishing they had asked the stunning witch on his arm.

Draco turned to Hermione and bowed, "May I have this dance?" he inquired.

"But of course," she replied flirtatiously.

The two danced, and Hermione found that Draco completely slipped out of her mind. All she could think of was this mysterious date and how wonderful he was.

Draco couldn't believe his luck. Here he was, with the most beautiful girl of Hogwarts in his arms. The nagging voice in the back of his head kept reminding him that she had no idea who he was. He immediately pushed that thought out of his head. He would win her heart tonight, he had to. Hermione looked up at him, and he looked down at her.

Their lips met in a searing kiss as they held each other tightly in a passionate embrace in the middle of the dance floor. It was just the two of them in their own world, where nothing existed but the two of them, now and forever. As the two separated, Hermione peered questioningly into Draco's eyes. "You seem so…familiar," she gasped.

"Well, that's understandable, we do go to school together. Or, did, rather," Draco replied, grinning.

"I suppose you're right," Hermione replied.

Draco breathed a silent sigh of relief. That was certainly way to close. She couldn't find out before the unmasking.

The two danced every dance until dinner. They sat down at a large table with Parvati and Ron, Harry and Ginny, and a few other couples. Dinner was a pleasant affair, but Draco was getting butterflies about the unmasking. Everyone at the table was trying to get Draco to reveal his identity. They needed to know who their best friend was dancing with.

Draco excused himself from the table after eating. "I have a couple of things I have to do before the unmasking," he told Hermione. "Don't worry, I'll be back." Hermione nodded and continued her conversation with Ginny.

Suddenly the lead singer for the Pink Dominoes spoke into the microphone. "Ok folks! We're about to take a 15-minute break, and another band will be playing for you. After their last song, you will all unmask. Now, here's the Wild Animals!!" (A/N DRACO'S BAND PEOPLE)

Hermione gasped as the band filed onto the stage. That was her mysterious date!! He appeared to be the lead singer. The drummer was a cute redhead with a black hate perched jauntily on his head. The bassist was tall and lanky with brown hair, and the guitarist had pitch-black hair. The band was dressed in all black, except her date.

As the band played, Hermione discovered that the drummer was American and that her date also played guitar in some songs, he had uncharmed his voice, but she still didn't recognize it. She figured that was because people sounded differently singing than they did talking. She turned her attention back to the table and conversation resumed.

Draco took a deep breath, thought 'this is it', and grabbed the mike. "Witches and Wizards, it has been an honor to play at this school on the night of my graduation ball. We have one more song for you before the unmasking. This was written for my lovely date this evening. Would you please stand up?"

Hermione stood, blushing, and everyone's eyes were fixed on her.

I have always been a little shy
I've always been the quiet
Type till now
And I never let my feelings show
I never let anybody know
Just how much I was so
Deep in love
But now that you're in my arms

I'm gonna stand on a rooftop
Climb up a mountaintop
Baby, scream and shout
I wanna sing it on the radio
Show it on a video
Baby, leave no doubt
I want the whole world to know
Just what I'm all about
I love to love you out loud

You keep bringing out the
Free in me
What you do to my heart
Just makes me melt
And I don't think I can resist
But I've never been one to
Kiss and tell
A love this true can't be
Subdued
So I'm gonna let out a yell

Baby, I want the whole world to see
Just how good your love looks on me

Baby, I love to love you out loud
Yeah, I love to love you out loud

Draco held the last note and stared straight into Hermione's eyes. The drummer grabbed the mike and said, "Everyone, it's time to unmask."

Hermione lifted the hood off her head, keeping her eyes locked on Draco's. He carefully took off his mask the same time that she untied hers.

Hermione gasped and ran toward the castle.
