The train ride back to Hogwarts was faster than Draco expected, or perhaps it was because he had fallen asleep for most of the ride. Hermione was sitting next time him, not sleeping, but staring out the window. He knew what she was thinking about but didn't know what to say. All he could think about was if he said something wrong, hurt Hermione and lost her. He sighed and turned his head away from her.

When the train stopped, Draco seized Hermione's hand and held it as the walked to the carriage which would take them up to the school. Hermione smiled but said nothing. They sat in the carriage silently for the couple of minutes it took. Hermione stepped out and looked up at the huge school, smiled and turned to make sure Draco was right behind her, "It's good to be back." He said.

"It really is." She went and grabbed her luggage and was off. Draco caught up with her. He couldn't help but wonder if she was losing interest in him, seeing as she was acting so vague. But he told himself over and over that it was just the shock of her father's death and that she really needed him to stick around and help her through this. That was it. He thought.

They put their things in their room and were off. They went to go get breakfast and talk with the Headmaster, to let him know they had arrived back safely. They arrived at the Great Hall the same time Dumbledore did. He ushered them in and magicked them some breakfast. He asked them about their trip and if Draco liked the muggle town they stayed in. After the nice little chit-chat, and Hermione assuring them both she was going to be alright, they made their way back to their room.

Hermione went into her room for awhile to unpack while Draco sat in front of the fire, doing his homework. He just finished as Hermione came out of her room. Draco looked up and saw she had been crying. He got up and walked over to her, hugging her tightly as soon as got close enough to her.

He tilted his head and started moving towards her mouth, but she stopped him, took his hand and led them to her room. She lay down on her bed, pulling him on top of her. He whispered, "I love you." Hermione smiled, "I love you too."

Hermione took out her wand and with one flick there was music playing. Draco looked at her, "How'd you do that?"

"Magic." She said and smiled. She was playing The Killers, Draco never heard of them, seeing as they were a muggle band. But he decided he didn't hate it. He leaned in a kissed Hermione who kissed back, passionately.

I believe in you and me
I'm coming to find you
If it takes me all night
Wrong until you make it
And I won't forget you
At least I'll try
And run, and run tonight
Everything will be alright
Everything will be alright
Everything will be alright
Everything will be alright

Draco smiled. Everything will be alright. He decided. He loved this girl and nothing was going to stop him from doing this. He kissed her again, hard, on the lips before moving down to her neck. He sucked on the soft skin until Hermione uncontrollably moaned. His hands wandered, touching everywhere. Hermione shivered with excitement. Draco felt himself get hard and shifted to keep Hermione from feeling it. He wasn't sure what Hermione wanted and if she would be willing to go that far. As much as Draco wanted to strip her down and fuck her, he didn't. He held back because he knew that Hermione wasn't ready. Or maybe, was she?

I was out shopping for a doll
To say the least, I thought I've seen them all
But then you took me by surprise
I'm dreaming bout those dreamy eyes
I never knew, I never knew
So take your suitcase, cause I don't mind
And baby doll, I meant it ever time
You don't need to compromise
I'm dreaming bout those dreamy eyes
I never knew, I never knew
But it's alright...

Everything will be alright
Everything will be alright
Everything will be alright
Everything will be alright

The song ended and another one started. But Draco was too passionately kissing Hermione to notice. He took off her robes and moved towards her shirt. He prayed that this time, Potter or Weasel wouldn't storm through the door, that they would be able to enjoy this. He loved this girl lying underneath of him but she was weak; he was practically taking advantage of her. He stopped and looked up at her, straight in the eyes and asked her, "Do you really want to do this?" She just stared at him. Draco started to listen to the music.

She doesn't have the answer yet
The answer yet
I'm breathing down her neck
Maybe I should give her time

If it were up to me
She would know that
She'll be the one
When I'm dead will use my bed
And she'll spend her life
Thinking of us and making a fuss
If it were up to me
She would know that

Our love (our love)
Is the best love (best love)
If it were up to me
Yes, our love (our love)
Is real love
So just let it be

Draco backed off of her but Hermione pulled him down again. "Yes, I want to do this…now." She said, practically begging him.

Draco watched her, "I can't, I can't do this." He said and got off the bed…"

I want you to know
I've done our charts and it says
That we work as one
Like the Jackson 5 and the temptations
If it were up to me
She would know that

Our love (our love)
Is the best love (best love)
If it were up to me
Yes, our love (our love)
Is real love
So just let it be

Well, your mother likes my smile
And your father likes my lifestyle
Should I ask them what I asked you
To get the answer
Yes, to get the answer

It's easy (easy)
It's easy (easy)
It's easy (easy)
Oh it's easy (easy)

Your mother likes my smile
And your father likes my lifestyle
Should I ask them what I asked you
To get the answer
Yes, to get the answer

Cause our love (our love)
Is the best love (best love)
If it were up to me
Yes, our love (our love)
Oh, is real love
So just let it be

Its easy (easy)
Its easy (easy)
Its easy

With the song ending Draco got up and left the room. Hermione sat there, feeling embarrassed and confused. She got up, put her clothes back on, grabbed her robe and went for the door, not saying anything. Draco was sitting in front of the fireplace. Head in his hands. Hermione looked at him, still not saying anything. Draco heard the door open and shut, the music had stopped and the room was absolutely silent. Draco shivered, do I go after her? He asked himself. Do it, dumb ass. He got up, ran into Hermione's room, grabbed his stuff and ran out the door after Hermione. He got out there to find no one; he kept running down a couple more halls but she was no where to be found. He sighed, leaning against a wall and slid down it, he brought his knees up to his chest and put his head down. I am such an idiot. He felt the tears burn in his eyes, brushing them away when he heard—

"Drakie?" An annoying, familiar voice said.
