Disclaimer: I do not own Harry Potter nor do I own Hermione or Ron or Draco… nor do I own the main parts of the plot. Teehee.

Hi it's me! I hope you liked the first two chaps. Sorry it took so long. I promise I'll update as this next chap as soon as I can.

Forty five minutes later Draco stepped out of the shower. Thinking to himself he said 'I have to tell Hermione how I feel. These dreams are getting worse and beginning to come more often.'

It was early in the morning and he had stayed up last night almost the whole night thinking. After he had gotten back from the Owlery he just couldn't stop worrying. He had seen Hermione coming out of the Owlery right after he had and he knew she had seen him, but he didn't know if she had know who he was.

Everything was going to shit. Knowing Hermione, he knew that she would most likely think that all this was some sort of prank being played on her by the Slytherin house. He would have to tell her and tell her soon and not only because of that fact that he was madly in love with her, but also that she would soon find out that she was a pureblood and would soon have to marry him.

He put on his clothes and stepped out of his private room and headed off to the great hall for breakfast to see how Hermione would react to her birthday present now probably thinking that it wasn't coming from someone who loved her, but that it was all part of some sick plan.

Now in the great hall Hermione was trying to act as if nothing had happened. it was her birthday and had to act as happy as possible. Last night had been a horrible night. All night she had had the same dream over and over again. She was in a room all by her self and all of a sudden it would fill up with hundreds of faceless Slytherins in long black cloaks. All of then were pointing and laughing at her and she would run and run, but she couldn't find a way out of the room.

She was sitting at the Gryffindor table talking to her friends when she noticed the black owl that would always bring her the gifts. She had already planned what she would do. She would receive the gift like as if nothing had happened and keep an eye open for the Slytherin table and see who it was that was playing with her.

As the owl passed by it dropped off a green box with silver ribbon right in front of Hermione. She picked it up and slowly started to unravel the ribbon. She opened the box and out fell a picture of a mini cooper and a pair of keys. She couldn't believe what she was seeing. The person that had gotten her all those gifts as some sick joke had just gotten her a car and not just any car they had gotten her her favorite car. A mini cooper! It was also in her favorite colors all dark green with a silver top and with a black interior.

"Oh my dear God!" Hermione said out loud to herself. She was going to pass out.

"Hermione are you ok?" Ginny asked.

"Um….. yeah I think I am or at least I hope I will be…. I just got a car Ginny. " Hermione blurted out.

"Hermione that's awesome, but I hope the one you got doesn't fly like dad's old one" Ginny said laughing. Then she added "That's really nice of your parents to surprise you like that"

"Yeah real nice of them Gin." Hermione said sarcastically.

"Well aren't you happy? I know I would be ecstatic" Ginny said.

"No no no Ginny I'm happy its just that I'm not feeling too well. I think I'm getting that stomach bug that's been going around. I think I'm going to go lay down for a while. I'll see you at lunch" An d with that Hermione got up and ran off toward her room.

Ginny yelled after her "Happy Birthday Hermione!"

'I wonder what stomach bug she could be talking about 'Ginny asked herself.

"What's eating her?" Ron said as he as Harry sat down to breakfast.

"I have no clue" Ginny responded while still starring to where Hermione had run off to.

Across the hall Draco was watching the whole thing. 'I wonder what happened? Why did she react like that?' He then got out of his seat and started towards where Hermione had gone.

Now outside the great hall Hermione had gone into a secluded hallway and had let herself fall down along the side of one the stone walls. 'This all had to be part of the joke. It just had to.' She said to herself.

Hermione, knowing full well how much money muggle cars cost couldn't believe that a person would just drop about $25,000 on some joke. 'Could someone from Slytherin really like me? ' She asked herself. She was becoming so confused.

'Crap!' She began to curse herself. 'I was so caught up on what they had given me that I completely forgot to look over at their table! I'm so fucking stupid' From being so taken aback by the gift she had forgotten to keep an eye open for the Slytherin table and who would be watching her. She felt so stupid.

She reached into her cloak pocket and took out the box. She opened it and took out the picture of the car and flipped it over. On the back was a short note that always came with all her gifts. It was always something short and sweet, but she couldn't help but notice that they always said the perfect thing to make her feel butterflies all over. It read.

My Love,

Today on your 17th birthday Iwanted to give you something I know you would like. Through my sources I found out your favorite colors silver and green. I knew you had wanted to get a car for sometime and I hope you enjoy it over the summer. Happy Birthday Hermione!

Always thinking of you with much LOVE,

Me

After reading it for the third time she couldn't help but breakdown and cry. She had to leave before someone were to see her. She got up and started to run as the tears fell down her face. As she made her way past the entrance of the great hall to get back to her dorm she bumped into something hard and almost fell before two strong arms grabbed her waist and held her close to them so she wouldn't. She looked up to find two of the most beautiful crystal blue eyes looking back at her.

"Granger are you all right? " Draco asked with his arms still around Hermione. "Granger? Granger are you ok?" He asked again.

Hermione couldn't bring herself to answer him back. She was still looking into his eyes and seemed to be lost in them.

"Hermione? Are you alright? " He asked again now getting worried that there was something very wrong with her. At the sound of her first name Hermione came to and noticed the position she was in and who she was with. She stepped back and looked around to see if anyone was there but, no it was only her and Draco. She took two more steps back and looked back up at Draco.

"Shove off Malfoy! And next time watch where it is that your going!" And with that she took off to her room.

"Oh god I hope she's ok." Draco said out loud to himself as he turned around and headed off to his room.
