Chapter Eight: Aftermath
Hermione walked through the halls of Hogwarts thinking of Draco Malfoy. One minute she had been standing there up against the wall and the next he was kissing her and feeling her up. Everything was so confusing to her.
She didn't know much about this DID (Dissociative Identity Disorder) thing. How is it that this girl knows everything I'm doing all the time and I have no idea what she's doing to me? It seems like she came out at the right time. I didn't want to be stuck with Malfoy and she just came out and helped me, making me not be scared any longer.
'Hermione that was really sweet of you, I really make your pain go away?'
'Right now my only pain is you giving me a damn headache.' She thought back. '
'I got a plan for all your little friends, don't worry, little Hermione. I'll get them all back for ignoring you all summer. I'll make them wish they had never been born.'
'What are you talking about?' She thought. 'Ron and Harry actually didn't contact me over the summer, at all?'
'No they didn't, they were so busy thinking about themselves that they didn't care what happened to you. They didn't think you were important enough to be in serious danger after the ministry thing.'
'I suppose you're right.' She said to herself, but the voice didn't come again. It stayed achingly quiet all the rest of the way back to the common room and even when she went to sleep.
Draco woke up the next morning with a smirk on his face. He kept reliving the events in the library with Granger and occasionally would throw few more pleasurable things into the mix.
Draco got out of bed, putting on his school uniform and grabbed his books on his way out the door for breakfast.
He thought about Hermione the whole time during breakfast, and he even managed to ignore Pansy through it's duration, as well (big shocker).
His first class of the day was Double Potions and, to be honest, he never liked potions at all. And he certainly didn't like Snape, either, but he had to keep up appearances. He wasn't really evil like everyone thought he was, he just put up an act to please all the damn adults in his life, especially his father.
Draco sat down in in the back of potions class as the tardy bell was ringing. Snape walked in right after that looking all smug, like he was the best person in the world.
"Today we're going to do the Veritaserum potion, you'll do this potion, then try it on your partner, which I'm going to assign to you for the rest of the year." Snape said smirking.
Draco knew that Snape would try to make the Gryffindor's lives miserable especially the "Golden Trio", but making them miserable would make his own house miserable. So, hopefully he wouldn't get stuck with Weasel or Potter. He couldn't take working with those two gits this year, or any year for that matter. He knew, from the way that Snape was looking at them, that he would try to make them wish they were somewhere else, as he always did. And what better way than to partner them up with their enemy?
Draco hoped that Snape would cut him a break, because he knew that Weasel and Potty weren't exactly his idea of a so called partnership.
Now, Hermione Granger was another story. He didn't mind working with her one little bit.
The thought made him smirk in her direction.
Granger didn't see him smirk, but, from the way she tensed up when he stared at her from behind, he could tell she knew that someone was looking at her.
Snape called out the names of the partners that would be working together for the rest of the year, and to his utter disbelief, he actually got Granger for his partner.
Granger slowly got out of her chair and proceeded to the back of the room to sit in the empty seat next to him. She looked like she wanted to drop through the floor or something, but Draco knew he'd make this little experience, for the year, really last, and hopefully to his liking.
Hermione really didn't want to be Malfoy's partner after what happened last night, she didn't think she could handle it. But she would try and act like nothing ever happened.
She wished she could've sat with Harry or Ron, at least she wouldn't feel like she wanted to melt into the floor with them.
She hadn't talked to Harry and Ron much since they had gotton to school. She really missed them a lot, but that couldn't be helped right now.
As she copied down the notes for the veritaserum potion (truth potion), Malfoy went and got the ingredients.
All of a sudden, she had another throbbing headache; not the kind she usually got, but a little different.
'Hermione, why do you obsess with Harry and Ron so much? It's obvious they don't want you in their lives anymore! I mean, if you want friends, go make better ones than that!'
'Go away, Krista!' She thought to herself. 'I need to concentrate on this potion and I can't do that with you giving me a damn headache!'
'Touchy, Touchy, c'mon, you know Draco is going to ask you a seriously personal question and you're gonna mess up. So why don't you let me come out and teach him a thing or two?'
'I said go away and leave me alone!' She thought hard to herself.
She was interrupted when Malfoy came back with the potion ingredients.
"Whats wrong with you Granger?" Malfoy said sitting down next to her.
"It's nothing, lets just get this potion going, before we get in trouble for not starting yet." She said, looking around them to see that everyone else had already started.
"Whatever." Malfoy retorted.
When the potion was finally finished, and in a little vial ready to be tested, the bell rang for lunch. They would have to test their potions the next day and Hermione was dreading it, even as she started packing up and heading to lunch.
Malfoy was already at the Slytherin table eating, when Hermione walked in through the big double doors. She looked around for Harry and Ron, spotting them immediately.
She headed towards them, but was stopped in her tracks by a headache
'Why don't you go sit with someone cool for once in your life?' Hermione just shook her head and ignored it, still heading for Harry and Ron.
"Hey guys," She said cheerfully. She only got two quick "heys" from her two best friends, before they started talking about Quidditch again.
Hermione rolled her eyes and filled her plate with all her favorite foods. She ate slowly, because she liked to take her time, unlike Ron, who was shoveling down food and talking to Harry at the same time.
Hermione looked up at that moment and saw a pair of silvery-blue eyes looking straight at her. Hermione looked back down at her plate and tried to ignore it, but no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't escape from his penetrating gaze.
When she couldn't take it anymore, she got up from the table and walked out of the Great Hall, heading for the library, since there was another hour left for lunch.
Hermione walked into the uncrowded library and went to the back to her favorite little corner, where no one would find her. It was her little cornor and she had used it for five years. She wasn't planning on finding another one, even with the events of last night still haunting her.
Hermione started scanning the books in the shelves, by "her cornor", and found a book on Defence Against the Dark Arts. She was hoping that Harry would start up on the DADA, again, soon. So, she wanted to read more about it so she could help him plan lessons.
Hermione sat down in the chair she always sat in and started reading the book, finding it interesting.
She was so engrossed in the book, that she didn't hear the soft footsteps coming, until a shadow spread over her.
She looked up and her eyes met with the same brilliant silver-blue eyes that had been watching her while she was in the Great Hall.
"Granger we need to have alittle chat." Malfoy said, smirking at the way she shivered.
"What do you want, now, Malfoy?"
"To do this." The next thing she knew he had pulled her out of her chair, and she was pressed up against him, in an earth shattering kiss that made her go weak in the knees.
