Chapter 8: YOU LIKE DRACO!

The girls were following Hermione steadily and were giggling. Hermione turned around and stopped and waved to them to come quickly. They were reaching the Head Rooms, and saw Blaise and Draco walk into the portrait.

"Omigod! We just missed them!" Parvarti said.

Hermione thought to herself," I thought he would go to the Slytherin's Common Room, not ours." Hermione kept thinking to herself until Ginny snapped her out of her own mind.

"Hermione, are you okay?" Ginny asked.

"Yeah, I'm fine. But let's get on with this. We have a sleepover to accomplish!" Hermione said happily and walked over to the cat portrait.

"Strix Struma!"

The portrait opened with a creak, and Hermione stepped inside and the girls followed her. Ginny walked in while holding her pillow close to her chest, while Parvarti was carrying the red duffel bag which held both Lavender and hers clothes and things. Ginny and Lavender gasped and Parvarti dropped the duffel bag. Hermione breathed deeply and turned around and saw them gaping at the huge common room. They didn't see Draco and Blaise coming out from his room.

"Herm-Granger, I thought you were going to be at your common room," Draco questioned her in a rough voice, but had hint of gentleness in it.

Hermione didn't really hear it, but the others did, and they watched closely for what Hermione was going to stay.

"This is partly my common room also, it's ours. Besides, it was my choice that I wanted the girls to come over here. I don't mind if Blaise is going to stay, but we're just going to be in my room," Hermione replied and nodded her head and started to go up the stairs to her room. She turned around and waved her hand to the girls to come with her, and the they did. While Hermione, Ginny, Lavender, and Parvarti were going up the stairs, Blaise turned to his friend and said," Draco, she has got some fire in her, you better watch out."

Draco looked at Blaise and answered," I have plenty of fire in me that could tame hers." Then Draco looked at Hermione going up the stairs; he looked down. "Blaise, why don't we go upstairs and see what the girls are doing."

"Are you talking about sneaking into their room, then putting all these invisible microphones and listening in to what they're saying?" Blaise asked.

"Yeah, pretty much."

"Well, we COULD make them get out of the room for a second and put that spell where you can listen and see what they're saying."

"Yeah, let's just waltz right through there and tell the girls, can you just leave for a moment? We need to put in a spell in your room so that we can listen to everything that you're going to say," Draco said sarcastically.

"Or, we could just tell them that you lost something and maybe, it was there in her room," Blaise replied.

"Well, I was in her room, without my clothes," Draco said devilishly.

"What you do!" Blaise aksed him.

"She stole my clothes and wand. Then we had a talk, but of course, with my clothes on. Virgin Granger probably couldn't stand it that I was undressed," Draco snickered while saying it.

"Riiiiiight," Blaise said while narrowing his eyes," well, let's go get that missing something from her room."

While Draco and Blaise were talking about what had happened, Hermione and her friends were walking towards her room. Hermione opened her chestnut door quickly and said,"Welcome to my fabulous room!"

The girls gasped and then ran towards Hermione's king sized bed.

"Hermione, your room's so beautiful!" Lavender shrieked. "You must love being the Head Girl, and living like this! Especially that this is going to be your final year!"

Hermione smiled and said," Yeah, I guess so. It's all good."

"Especially when you have Draco living with you, right?" Parvarti said while giggling. Then Ginny added," Well, I think that Hermione is having fun without us knowing!" This made the girls giggle louder, Hermione on the other side, had no clue what her friends were saying.
"Gin, what do you mean I'm having fun without you girls knowing. I nearly tell you everything what happens to me!" Hermione said defending herself.
"Well," Lavender started," you said NEARLY tell everything. So there HAS been something going on between you and Draco?"

Hermione shook her head quickly, but then she thought for a moment, and then remembered what happened between her and Draco. She started to blush.

"So there HAS been something going on!" Ginny squealed.

"I guess," Hermione murmured.

But at that time, Draco knocked Hermione's door.

"Can I come in?"

Hermione sat up straighter and grabbed her hair band. She started to put her hair up and said," Sure, why not."

Draco opened Hermione's door and smiled at her quickly. Blaise came in with him also.

"H-Granger, I think I left something in your room earlier in the day. Can I see if there's something in here? But could you wait outside for just a few seconds?" Draco asked sternly but kindly.

Hermione couldn't say no but thought again and asked," Why do I need to wait outside?"

Draco coughed and said," There might be uhh... something you no."

It took Hermione awhile to get what Draco meant, but then caught on, and said," Oh, okay." Then she turned around the her friends and herded them out of her room.

"Draco, where are you going to put it?" Blaise asked him while looking around the room.

"I don't no, ... why don't we just put them on the four corners of her room. We can put two of those visuals and two hearing chips," Draco directed.

"Have you done this before?"
"Hell yeah."

Draco pointed his wand up to one of the corners and said," auditus!" And he did the same with another corner of Hermione's room. Then he pointed to the two other corners and said," Limsus! "
They were done; Draco gave a sniff of approval and started to head out to the door. Then he stopped when he was about 5 feet away from the door. He turned around and beckoned Blaise to follow then they both headed out the door.

"Hermione, why'd they kick you out of your room!" Ginny wondered.

"Yeah, Hermione. It is your room and they just kicked you out!" Lavender said while frowning.
"She must have a good reason for this," Parvarti said trying to defend her friend a little, but still wondering herself.

"Dra-Malfoy was in my room earlier. But I'll tell you later," Hermione promised.

They kept talking until Draco and Blaise came out of the room.
Hermione asked," Did you find what you needed?"

"No. I think it's in my room," Draco said trying not to meet Hermione's gaze.

"Oh, okay."

"Yeah, see you later."

"Sure."

Then Draco and Blaise walked past Hermione and headed toward their room.

Lavender, Parvarti and Ginny started to giggle for some random reason while Draco and Blaise were walking to Draco's room. Hermione turned around and glared at them but softened her glance and beckoned them to her room again.

Draco and Blaise were in Draco's room and they were trying to fix the hook-up in Hermione's room.

"So," Blaise said while looking around Draco's room. "Where are we going to and how are we going to do this?"
"Hold on," Draco replied. Draco pointed his wand to the floor and said," Observatio auditos specular! "

Then a screen appeared on the floor. It was sleek and flat, more like the muggle plasma TV screen. Draco threw his wand on his bed and said," Help me put this up on the wall." Blaise looked at him funnily. Draco noticed while he started to roll up his sleeves.

"What?"
"You no you could just use your wand for this right? This is the muggle way of putting things everywhere," Blaise said.

"Right, well, whatever, let's just get this up on the wall. You could help you no," Draco said not even bothering what Blaise had said to him. Blaise bent down with Draco and grabbed the screen on its sides and they both placed it on the wall. Funnily it didn't need anything to hold it up, you just needed to place it on a wall and it would stay where it was. On the side of the screen there was a panel that had digital buttons on it. Draco pressed some random number and the screen first wasn't so clear, but it was really clear like you were actually there. It showed Hermione, Lavender, Ginny, and Parvarti sitting down on the floor with huge pillows everywhere and laughing and talking.

"Hermione! You should really tell us what happened!" Parvarti said giggling.

"Yeah! And that "glance" you had with Draco while he was walking past you! What was that!" Lavender said excitedly.

"Is there something your hiding!" Ginny asked.

Draco thought in his head," God they're acting all crazy. I feel so sorry for Hermione right now. No, Draco, stop feeling sorry for Granger. " Draco was quiet and he wasn't even looking at the screen.
"Man, are you okay?" Blaise said.

Draco looked at Blaise and said," Sure." Then looked back at the screen.

Hermione was sitting next to Lavender and Ginny. They were all crowding around her and she looked pretty uncomfortable. Draco really felt sorry for her for some reason. Then Hermione started to say,"I... I'm not sure how to explain it to you guys. But you all can keep a real huge secret right?"

They all nodded really quickly. Draco was getting really interested now.

"Well-"
She was cut off by Lavender. "YOU LIKE DRACO!"

Parvarti playfully hit Lavender and said," She was bout to tell you what she had to say, but now that you've said that, now I'm curious about that topic. DO you like Draco? Or is it this random secret about something else so you can switch the topic?"

Hermione started to blush really badly. Lavender noticed instantly and said," YOU DO!"

Meanwhile, in Draco's room there was a huge burst of laughter, and it was coming from Blaise. Draco thought for a moment," I can't believe she likes me."

Blaise was having the time of his life.
Then Hermione started to say something so Draco pointed his wand at Blaise and said," Silencio!" Blaise was mute, for now.

"Well, I don't know. He opened up to me about his life and all, but ... " Hermione began.

And three of the girls were saying," But...!"

"But... I don't no!"

"What is there NOT to no? You have the hotts for Draco, and you won't admit it!" Parvarti said smartly. "It's written all over your face!"

Hermione answered by saying," It is?"

Draco was looking down but still listening.

"Spill it Hermione! We know you like him inside, you just won't tell us!" Ginny said excitedly.

Draco looked up and looked at Hermione only. She was getting pressured 'bout if she liked him. Which he was still wondering if she did or not. He had a little feelings for her he guessed, but he couldn't just be nice to her all of the sudden. He already showed her one side him that he normally doesn't show to anyone. Draco sighed. He looked down and a vision just popped up into his head.

Draco was walking towards Hermione's room and knocked on the door. Hermione answered, " is it you Draco?" Draco said yes, and Hermione said it was all right for him to come in. He opened the door and found Hermione with her friends. Draco walked up to her and he gave out his hand for her to put in. She did so, and he pulled her up. She slowly came up and Draco was looking straight into her eyes. She was looking back at him also, but she was blushing. He pulled her close to him and started to kiss her ever so gently.

Draco shook his head really hard to get the thoughts out of his head.

"Why the hell am I thinking about this?" he thought.

Draco stood up and snapped his fingers and Blaise supposedly tried to say ' Damn it Draco let me talk! 'And it came out perfectly loud and clear. (A/n: I meant.. the spell was broken.. just in case you didn't get what I was trying to say. heh.. sorry)

Blaise sighed and said, "Finally."

"Sorry," Draco said, "it's just that I needed some quiet time."

"Oh, sure, you could've just said shut the hell up and I'd shut up. But no, just go on and place a spell on me so I can't even talk."

Draco looked at Blaise for a moment, and then said," I'll be right back."

He stood up and started walking towards his door. His hand reached for the doorknob, but then he pulled back, like he was having second thoughts. He paused for a moment then reached for the doorknob once more then opened the door. Blaise was looking at Draco questioningly, but then just returned looking back at the screen where it showed Hermione and her friends.

Draco walked across the hallway, and was about to knock on Hermione's door. He pulled back but then he just knocked.

"Draco?" Hermione asked through her door. Ginny, Lavender, and Parvarti were all giggling saying all these things about how Hermione wanted it to be Draco and wanting him to come in.

He sighed, then said,"Yeah." He heard someone get up from a bed or a chair, either of those two and come closer to the door. Draco's heart beated wildly, little did he know, Hermione's were beating wildly also. Hermione reached down to open the doorknob, Draco looked down. Hermione opened the door, and looked at Draco. She felt her face becoming pink. Her friends were behind her were whispering quietly and giggling. Draco looked up and smiled warmly to Hermione. This only made her blush even more. Draco noticed, but made it seem like he didn't notice.

"Hermione," Draco whispered quietly. Hermione shivered for a moment.

"Yeah?"

Draco grabbed Hermione's hand and pulled her out of her room to the hall. He pushed her to the wall and made a pretty loud thud. Hermione's friends gasped when they heard this. Blaise, still in Draco's room had also heard this, since both Draco and Hermione were out of the room, Blaise opened the door slowly. Draco leaned in towards Hermione until his face was only a few centimeters away from hers. Parvarti, Lavender, and Ginny looked silently out of the door.

"Thank you," Draco said unexpectantly.

Hermione looked at Draco and said, "For what --" But she was stopped by Draco's lips. His kiss was soft and sweet. It was almost like the one in Snape's room, but more gentle. Hermione felt like she was going to collapse. Hermione's arms were on Draco's shoulders while Draco's hands were on her hips. Draco broke it off first and finished his sentence," For everything." Then he let go of Hermione and walked out towards the common room downstairs. Hermione slid down towards the floor. Her face flushed from kissing and looked side to side. She saw Blaise looking out of Draco's room with his mouth wide open. This was the same with Lavender, Parvarti, and Ginny. She smiled weakly and sat there for awhile.
