Sweet Seduction

Chapter 3: Every Time I Breathe

Hermione entered the Great Hall in a haze. She couldn't believe what had just happened. Draco Malfoy, Draco "Manwhore" Malfoy had kissed her. She somehow made it to the Gryffindor table.

"Hermione!" someone yelled behind her. She turned to see her best friend, Ginny Weasley, running behind her. Ginny grabbed her into a bone crushing hug. Apparently she had missed Hermione. "Damn, you look good."

"You too," Hermione responded. She was very jealous of Ginny. Ginny was confident, pretty, and a whore…in a good way though. Hermione may have had a handful of boyfriends both muggle and wizard, but she had never gone all the way before.

"What's up?" Ginny asked.

"Oh, nothing," Hermione said for she had been looking at a certain blonde boy eat his dinner.

"Tell me," Ginny said sternly. Hermione sighed and then decided to come clean.

"Okay, but promise you wont tell anyone what I am about to tell you," Hermione said.

"I can't make any promises," Ginny said stubbornly.

"Then I can't make any promises about keeping that little fifteen minutes you and Justin spent behind the greenhouse," Hermione said.

"You wouldn't," Ginny gasped appalled.

"I would hoe!" Hermione joked.

"Bring it on bi-atch," Ginny retorted.

Both girls walked off slinging their arms over the others shoulders. Once they got to the common room, Hermione gave the password to a portrait to Sid Vicious of the Sex Pistols. Obviously Draco had picked the portrait. The picture was playing a bass and screaming when they approached it. (Classic Sid Vicious moment thur) they went into Hermione's room and sat on the bed talking.

"So what about the secret?" Ginny asked.

"Okay, take the fire whiskey you're trying to hide from me," Hermione stated pointing to a lump under Ginny's robes. Ginny sighed and took out a bottle of fire whiskey, but much to her surprise, Hermione took a swig and gave it back to her.

"Okay, I'm ready," Hermione said. "Draco Malfoy, he….kissed me."

"Holy shit!" Ginny exclaimed. "Wow, Fred owes me money."

"What?"

"You know the job the Order gave you?" Ginny asked.

"Yeah, they want me to seduce Malfoy so they can get close to finding Voldemort," Hermione responded. "But why does he owe you money?"

"He thought it would take longer for the first kiss," Ginny said slyly. "Ten galleons for Ginny!"

"Wow, what a friend you are."

"In all seriousness, did you kiss him?"

"No, he kissed me!"

"Oh well, what Fred doesn't know wont hurt him."

"You little bitch. Betting on my job."

"What? It's not like you wouldn't do it."

"No I wouldn't. I take my job very seriously."

"So Draco apparently."

"Shut up whore."

"Slut."

"Hoe."

"Hate to break up the party," a voice drawled behind them, "but Granger needs to get some sleep." Malfoy was standing behind them and was sneering at them both.

"Piss off, Malfoy," Hermione said forgetting about the mission and the kiss.

Ginny was already slipping passed Draco not wanting to get in between them. Draco looked over his shoulder to make sure she was gone.

"Look Granger, we both knew that you liked that kiss in the carriage. So please stop acting like you hate me," Draco said leaning against the door frame. Hermione got a sudden stroke of brilliance. She walked over to him and got really close to him.

"You're right, I'm sorry for being an ass," she looked deep into his eyes and saw him lean into her, she then pushed him out of the room and slammed the door in his face.

"Don't worry Granger, we have all year!" he shouted.

"Halleluiah it's only that long," Hermione muttered getting ready for bed.
