Author's Note: I would just like to say something to a couple people who reviewed me:

Soon2BeDirector: I know, it is cute! It may start out as a RW/HG fanfic, but it will soon turn into a DM/HG one, so don't fret! Or something like that!J

Randomefloatingbananas: I love your name! It is uber-fabulous! I also wrote a story like this one, too, but I kinda screwed up! It's called Don't Tell. It isn't that good, but it is ok! Just don't read it! ;)

Chapter Four

I cannot believe Malfoy just kissed me, Hermione thought that night in her room. Why Malfoy? I mean, he is cute, but he's Malfoy!

In Malfoy's room, he was thinking about the kiss, too. Granger is hot, he thought, but not hot enough for me to kiss.

After both of them argued with themselves for about an hour, they finally fell asleep.

The next day at breakfast

"Hey, Hermione," Ron said when Hermione sat down. He gave her a quick kiss. "How was last night? Was Malfoy horrible?"

Should I tell him about the kiss? Hermione thought, then quickly decided not to.

"It was fine," Hermione said, brushing it off. "What is our first class?"

"Potions," Ron said, with disgust, "with Slytherin."

Hermione's stomach did a little flip. "Oh," she said, looking over at the Slytherin table.

Draco was laughing with his friends, but when he saw Hermione looking at him, he motioned for her to meet him outside. He stood up, and left. Hermione waited a few seconds, then left, too. Draco was leaning against the wall, with his back to Hermione.

"What do you want, Malfoy?" she asked, annoyed. He turned around.

"Look, about last night," he began.

"I don't want to talk about it," Hermione said.

"But I do." He led her to an empty classroom. "Look, I am sorry if you didn't want to kiss, but I did."

"Why?" Hermione asked.

Draco sighed. He was about to confess his biggest secret to Granger (even though it was about her). "I-I r-really, um, well, l-l-l-like y-you."

"What?" Hermione was bewildered.

"I like you," Draco said, smiling sheepishly.

Hermione stared at him like he was crazy, then fled the room. Draco sighed, then went back to breakfast. Hermione, on the other hand, ran to the library, were she stayed until breakfast was over, then sulkily went down to the dungeons. She met up with Ron and Harry halfway there.

"Where were you?" Ron asked, as they made their way down to the dungeons.

"I wasn't feeling well," Hermione said.

They went into the classroom, and found three seats next to two boys from Gryffindor. Draco walked in, followed by his cronies, and Hermione felt herself blush when he looked at her.

After Potions, they had DADA (Defense Against the Dark Arts), then Transfiguration, and finally lunch. Hermione ate quickly, then hurried to the library. She sat down in the corner, and took out her Charms book, but couldn't concentrate.

Look, Granger, she said in her head, Malfoy means nothing and that kiss means nothing. He was probably trying to mess with your head when he said he liked you.

Hermione felt a little better after leaving the library, but was dreading going back to her room at the end of the day, although the day seemed to go by extremely fast. Hermione beat Draco back to the room and was already doing her homework when he got in. Instead of going back to his room, though, he slid into the spot on the loveseat next to her, and put is arm across the couch's back.

"What are you doing?" Draco asked, looking down at Hermione's paper.

"Leave me alone, Malfoy," Hermione said.

"I saw you looking at me today," Draco said. "I know you want me, yet you're too scared to admit it."

"Shove it, Malfoy," Hermione said.

"And why must you continue calling me 'Malfoy.' I know you want to call me 'Draco.'" He smirked.

"Shut up," Hermione said. She gathered her things, then decided to go to the library. "If you follow me," she said, turning to Draco, "I will tell Dumbledore that you are stalking me." She walked out.

Draco watched her go, a look of pure shock on his face. No girl had ever turned him down. The shock quickly turn into a smirk. He loved a challenge.

Library

Hermione finally finished her homework. She dropped her things off in her room, then, to avoid Draco, decided to take a stroll around the grounds. Not realizing where she was going, she found herself outside the Gryffindor tower. She wasn't sure what the password was, but Collin Creevey, Ginny Weasley's friend,

came around the corner, and let her in. Ron and Harry were playing wizard's chess, and it looked like Harry might actually win. Hermione gave Ron a kiss, then went to find Ginny in the girl's dormitory. She needed to find someone female to talk to.

"Hey, Ginny," Hermione said, sitting down on Ginny's bed. Ginny was reading her Potion's book, but closed it when she saw Hermione's face.

"What's up?" Ginny asked.

"Umm," Hermione said, not meeting Ginny's gaze. "I have a problem."

"What is it?"

Hermione breathed in slowly, then poured out her story. Ginny just stared, not interrupting once. When she finished, Ginny said slowly, "So, do you like Malfoy?"

"I don't want to," Hermione said. "But he is just, so, I dunno." Hermione sighed. "What am I going to do? I can't tell Ron, it will break his heart. But I can't keep this a secret from him."

"Umm, you may not want to hear this," Ginny said, "but you may have another guy problem."

"What?"

"Someone close to you likes you."

"Who?"

"Harry."

Do you like it? I do. Thanx for all of your reviews! I will write more because you liked it so much!
