Chapter 2

After shaking the thought of her dream away Hermione stood up and walked into the bathroom taking her uniform and makeup bag with her. The sight that overtook her was breath taking. Just like the perfects bathroom there was a giant pool sized bath, but larger with more faucets. On one of the walls were two giant showers, one with green towels embroidered with a silver DM's and the other, red towels with gold HG's. She smiled as this then turned around and laid her stuff down on the counter that stretched across the room accompanied with a long mirror.

Hermione turned on the shower stepping into the spray of hot water oblivious that Malfoy had come into the bathroom and grabbed the stuff he had left from his earlier shower. He turned around and smirked toward the shower thinking of the dream he had last night before heading back off to his room.

Hermione stepped out of the shower wrapping her initialed towel around her body finding out that the towels had been charmed to dry instantly and to keep who ever used it toasty warm like it was fresh out of the dryer.

After changing into her school uniform, pulling her hair back into a high ponytail and dabbing on some makeup she headed out to the common room. She thought the bathroom was awesome but it was nothing compared to the common room.

On the south facing wall there was a giant fireplace which kept the whole room nice and toasty, on the right of the fire was the painting leading to the corridor while one the left was a fridge that kept itself magically stocked for those study-time snacks. On the north wall there was there doors one to the bathroom and one to each bedroom. On the east and west walls were study areas and shelves for books, while a handful of sofas and recliners lay scattered around the middle of the room.

Walking over to her desk she pulled out some parchment, ink, and a quill and began writing a letter to her parents. When she had finished she grabbed her book and started reading on one of the couches near the fireplace.

A couple of hours later

Malfoy walked back into the room carrying a load of books and stopped abruptly when he saw her reading on a couch. He quietly set his books down at his desk and stepped up behind her sliding his arms around her shoulders and whispered softly in her ear. "Hello Bookworm."

Startled she turned around to face him dazzled at his action and stil half absorbed into the book.

"Hello ferret," she replied back to him curiously.

"What are you reading?" he asked leaning over to get a better look at the book.

"Oh, it's just an old muggle romance novel. Did you need something?" She placed a page maker and closed the book looking deeply into his grey eyes which were twinkling with a hint of silver.

"Well actually yes, in two hours we have a meeting with the perfects to schedule hall monitoring." He paused bringing one of his hands under her chin and let his thumb trail over her lips. Clearing his throat and looking deep into her chocolate brown eyes he went on. "Secondly, I wanted to tell you how beautiful you look.

At this he leaned in and gently placed a kiss on her lips. Stun, she didn't move then instinct lead her arms to slip around his neck and tangle in his silky soft hair. A thought passed through her head how softly and not greasy it was, then she kissed him back.

He wrapped his arms around her back and leaned her against the couch while trailing kissies down her neck and throat and up to her ear lobe then back to her mouth gently sucking on her bottom lip and rubbing her back in soothing circular motions.

Both of them fell asleep cuddling and kissing in the awe of this instinct feeling, yet also a curious feeling lingering on the back on Hermione's mind, why all of a sudden this feeling when all these years she hated him with such a deep passion.
