"Welcome to another year at Hogwarts. Announcements shall be short. The lists of things not allowed at Hogwarts are on Mr. Flich's door to his office. As always, the dark forest is forbidden to all." He looked in Harry, Ron and Hermione's direction at those words. "Also our new Heads for this year are Hermione Granger of Gryffindor and Draco Malfoy of Slytherin. Well I do believe that is all I need to say. Oh and one more thing, I must remind our seventh years that there will be the Christmas ball for you this year, only you." Dumbledore sat after making his announcements and the food appeared before them.
Hermione took small bites out of her roll and that was it. Harry saw this and gave her a worried look.
"Hey Hermione, what's the matter?"
"It's this Christmas ball. Every year the Head Boy and Girl are forced to go together." Hermione said sadly. She finished her roll and sat back, waiting for the other two.
The three didn't talk for the rest of dinner for they were all thinking about Hermione's circumstance. Suddenly a deep and seductive voice spoke from behind her.
"Hey Granger." Draco said somewhat quietly.
Hermione turned around to face him. "Yes Malfoy?" she replied a bit kinder than normal.
"Could we go to our dorms? I'm not feeling all to well and we need to come up with a password." Hermione sighed and got up. He did look slightly paler than normal.
"I'll see you guys later." She followed Draco out of the hall.
They walked through a bunch of corridors until finally they reached a portrait of a boy and girl swimming in a lake.
"So I was thinking that we should do something no one would expect. What about beautiful? No one would suspect that because it's stupid. If not then the only other thing I'll go for is Draco's hot." He smirked.
"Fine, beautiful it is." Hermione said quickly. She would not be sating Draco's hot, even though he was, as a password.
"Ok." The two people in the portrait heard them and let them in.
Hermione walked in first and gasped. It was beautiful. The walls were ruby red with gold trim, the floor was a silverfish and the furniture was a dark green. Hermione grinned and went to find her room. When she found it she grabbed a towel, exited the room and went into the bathroom.
Quickly Hermione filled the pool like tub with hot water and a bunch of different bubbles and liquid perfumes. She transformed her uniform into a black bikini and stepped into the tub. She and Draco would have to set up a schedule so that they could both get baths without walking in on the other… just like Draco did at that very moment. Luckily she was in her bikini! He had on his black swim trunks and had a towel draped over his shoulder.
Hermione leaned against the side of the tub and grinned at him without even realizing it.
"Do you mind if I join you? We're both dressed for swimming so it's not like we're bathing." He asked, placing his feet in the hot water. It seemed to sooth him, so Hermione nodded reluctantly and he got in fully. "Thanks."
"How do you feel?" trying to start a conversation, Hermione asked this.
"Same as before, not so well, though the heat from this is helping." There was an awkward moment of silence. "Look, there's two letters for you in the common room. One from me and one from your dad. Oh ya and there's a third, it says to read it after your dad's letter. It's from the pureblood family the Minogues."
"Um, ok, thanks." She sighed.
Draco came closer to her until he was right in front of her. He placed his hands on either side of her on the edge.
"I know you don't feel like this towards me, but I have to do this."
His lips came in contact with her's. He kissed her hard and passionately. He was about to pull away when Hermione closed her eye and placed a hand on the back of his neck. She held him there and kissed him back. His tongue brushed against her bottom lip begging for entry. She gave into his wish and parted her lips. Their tongue brushed against each other as his began exploring her mouth. He separated his lips from her's so that they could both get air. He then moved down to her neck. He made sure not to give her a hickie for he didn't want to make her go through people questioning her.
Slowly he lifted her out of the tub and go out himself. Now they were sitting at the ledge, his feet in the water. Hermione suddenly straddled him and kissed his lips hard. She pushed him onto his back and laid down on top of him. Draco felt her breasts press against his body. He placed his hands on her ass, which was perfect. She didn't object so he kept them there.
Hermione pulled away grinning after a couple of minutes of this.
"Maybe I do like you like you like me." Hermione got off him and stood up. She drained the pool and grabbed her towel. She walked out of the bathroom and into her room.
Hermione dressed in her pink pajama pants and tanktop. She then walked past Draco's closed door and into the common room.
