Bane of My Existence

Chapter 2: The Hickey

By: Dizixete

"Virginia Weasley, you owe me one heck of an explanation", Hermione Granger angrily yelled as she cornered Ginny.

"So, was it good?" Ginny asked excitedly.

"What was good?" Hermione asked clearly confused.

"You know... the one I dared you unto" Ginny said clearly amused, and now amusedly at her neck.

"Excuse me? I don't know what you're talking about." Hermione said and now intrigued at the way Ginny's looking at her neck.

"You know the dare..." Ginny said as if stating the obvious, and when Hermione continued to look confused, "I dared you to bed the hottest guy, (in your opinion), here in Hogwarts." Ginny continued.

Hermione eyes widened as memories of last night flash back to her mind.

Flashback

Ginny winked devilishly at Hermione as went out to catch her man. Of course, not before Hermione promised to give her all the juicy details tomorrow. And with that, off she goes to bed.

!i!i!i!i!i!i!i!i!i!i!i!i!i!i!i!i!i!i!i!i!

Hermione seemed to walk to an endless corridor as she hurriedly strides toward the Head's Dorm.

The moment she heard the dare, one name only came to her mind. Draco Malfoy.

Hermione, without a doubt think that Draco Malfoy is one of the finest creatures that ever existed in this world. Drunk or not.

Hermione hurriedly, almost shouted the password to the portrait. As the portrait opened, there revealed a reading Draco, near the fire, obviously, just finished showering.

"Draco..." she said as she swayed towards him.

"Granger, what the heck-?" but he was interrupted by Hermione's lips crashing down his.

And the rest was history.

End of Flashback

"Not a word about this Ginny", Hermione said frantically, as she readied herself to eave Ginny alone.

"Wait, you haven't told me who the lucky guy is yet!" Ginny exclaimed.

"No one Ginny, No one", Hermione said leaving Ginny alone, but as she turn around the corner, she swear, she saw Ginny smirk.

!i!i!i!i!i!i!i!i!i!i!i!i!i!i!i!i!i!i!i!i!

Hermione Granger is fairly irritated as she continued to eat. Harry and Ron are out of sight again.

Hermione hate being alone in a crowded place, for example today, she is sitting here alone eating her breakfast and saving a seat or Harry and Ron, Talk about a lousy morning, her head hurts, her muscles are sore, (especially down south).

"Hey, Hermione" The boy-who-lived said as he sat down besides her, breaking her from her trance.

"Hi Harry! Where's Ron?" Hermione asked as she reach or a toast.

"Still sleeping, I think, t I woke him up before going down here." Harry said as he adds butter to his toast.

Silence soon followed as both of them are too occupied in eating to talk. However, the silence is broken when Ron came and sat beside Hermione in the other side.

"I can't believe it! No one told me that Flitwick's essay is due today, I haven't even started it yet!" Ron exclaimed as he fill his mouth with food.

"Ron, don't talk when your moth is full. And I remember perfectly that I reminded both of you and Harry yesterday while you are paying Chess", Hermione said.

"Must have forgotten... Anyways, can't I just borrow yours?" Ron asked.

"Seriously Ron, Professor Flitwick's class is after lunch. You have plenty of time to do it." Hermione said.

"Not everyone is like you Hermione; we can't finish a three foot essay in just a snap. Hermione, please, just let me copy yours", Ron said as he continues to eat.

"Fine! Fine!" Hermione exclaimed, as she reach or her bag and took out the essay.

Just as Ron was reaching over to get the essay, he caught a glimpse of something in her neck when Hermione flipped up her hair.

"Hermione, what's that on your neck?" Harry asked, apparently, he saw it too.

"Is that a hickey?" Ron asked as he gripped up a of Hermione's hair to get better view of it.

"Hickey? That's foolish, why would I have hickey?" Hermione said irritated, as she snatch her hair from Ron's grip and smooth it down.

When both Ron and Harry continued to look unconvinced, Hermione said, "Oh come on Ron, Harry, do you think I am a kind o girl who'll do such things?"

And with that she gathers up all her things and storm out of Great Hall, leaving a very guilty Ron and Harry behind.
