Previous Chapter: "No, no... You look beautiful..." Draco said in a low voice and he wasn't lying but he was hurt to hear that she cried. But he did really thought she is beautiful. 'Hermione I will never make you cry again...' Draco thought to himself as he was looking at Hermione who was walking silently beside him.

5.Do I want Nick to be Draco?

It was almost three o'clock when Hermione and Draco reached their dormitory. Hermione felt safe once more.

"Hermione I have to go, so you go and have some sleep. Chocolate Frogs." Draco said and he just realized that he made a mistake.

"How did you know the password?" Hermione asked.

"Ummm... D..Draco told me... Sorry I really got to go... See you around." Draco said very fast and walked away very quikely. 'That was close... Hope she didn't recognize me...' Draco sighed.

'That was weired... We aren't suppose to tell the password to others...' Hermione thought, watching Draco leaving. Then she went her room and slept.

After Hermione went to her room, Draco came into the common room very quietly and went to his room and changed his clothes. 'Why am I lying to her? I mean sooner or later she would know, it was me...Why do I want to hide it from her?' Draco thought. He didn't mean to lie to her but when he saw her eyes, he just couldn't tell her that it was him. Was it because hefelt guilty that he did many bad things to her past six years? Draco didn't even know since when he started like Hermione. He was so confused, but he was sure of one thing. He definitely liked Hermione. Whenever he thinks of her, he was happy.

When Hermione got up the next morning, she didn't feel scared or tired anymore. She had a nice long sleep, but one thing still puzzled her. She wasn't sure whether it was really Nick even he said he was Nick. When Hermione went to Great Hall, every body was there. She found Harry, Ron and Ginny and joined them.

"Hi guys..." Hermione said.

"Hermione where have you been?" Three of them asked together.

"Oh... I stayed in my room..." Hermione decided to lie to them because she knew what their reaction would be if she tell them about what had happened.

"Why?" Ron said, he was concerned about Hermione.

"I wasn't well..."

"Do you want to go to hospital wing?" Harry asked.

"I am alright. All I need is food." Hermione said looking at food in front of her. She was so hungry. She didn't eat anything from yesterday. While she was eating, Ginny whispered to her.

"Hermione, why is Draco staring at you? or is that Nick?"

The name Nick caught her attention. She looked at Slytherin Table. Draco was looking at her. She could tell it was Draco because he had Prefect badge on his left side of his robe. She was actually quite shocked at this. She was expecting Nick to see her but Nick was talking to his friend. When Hermione looked at Draco, he looked away quikely. Normally he would give her a disgusted look whenever his eyes and her eyes meet together but he looked nervous at that moment and she wondered why. While Hermione was thinking about Draco's strange behaviour towards her, she realised that Nick was smiling at her, so did she, she felt warm but she felt that he wasn't the boy who she was with. 'Was it Draco, then? Why am I keep thinking that it was Draco?' Hermione thought. She couldn't just let it go. '... if it was Draco, why would he lie to me? or do I want Nick to be Draco?' so many questions popped in her head, especially the last question and she decided to give a little test to Nick to check whether it was really him. After Harry, Ron and Ginny finished their breakfast, Hermione persuade them to leave first, and she waited Nick to finish his meal. When she saw Nick finished his meal she walked toward him.

"Nick, do you have a moment?" Hemione asked.

"You have no business here, mudblood!" one of Nick's friends said to Hermione.

"Excuse me?" Hermione was angry. Draco was watching this, and he knew what exactly Hermione wanted from Nick and he was scared of the truth.

"Hey cool down guys..." Nick said frowning to his friends. "... sorry about that..." Nick said.

"Nevermind, do you have a moment?" Hermione asked again, trying to ignore the others, but before Nick could answer, Draco came.

"Hermione, we got duties to do. You don't expect me to do all of it, do you? Let's go..." Draco took his chance and speak to Hermione.

"Umm..." Hermione really wanted test Nick first but Draco sounded very serious. "Okay... I will see you later then..." Hermione said to Nick and followed Draco.
