Thank u 4 the reviews! Sorry for taking a bit to update...
As always, Hermione woke up and stretched herself, yawning loudly. Not willingly, she managed to get out of her bed and choose some clothes from her drawer - after the little accident in the bathroom, Hermione always made sure she took some washed robes to the shower...
Hermione got out of her dormitory and tip-toed to the common room to make sure she could have a longer and relaxing bath. Luckily, no one was around, so she hurried to the bathroom and proceeded to fill the tub with warm water and foam - lots of it... She quickly removed her pajamas and stepped inside. Tilting her head back, Hermione tried to relax, but somehow couldn't.
She felt anxious for something, but didn't know what. She tried to remember the previous night...
Ok...so William and Malfoy were here...
There were two Fire Whiskeys...
Malfoy got drunk...hum...
Oh! And William grabbed him before he did something really stupid...
William...
Hermione's insights tightened with anxiety when she thought of him; when she remembered how close they had been...
Thirty minutes had passed when she finally decided to get out of the tub. Hermione dressed herself and went to the common room. Quickly, she started shoving her books and parchment inside her bag, not paying attention to the blond that was getting out of his dormitory...
She jumped slightly when Draco closed the door with a loud BANG. Hermione looked up from her bag to see him massaging his temples and landing on the nearest couch. Draco's confused and tired gaze met hers almost instantly, making Hermione flinch. Did he remember what happened last night?
"What's the matter? Is there something on my face?" he asked annoyed, seeing her anxious face.
"No. Nothing..." she sighted with relief and finished preparing her bag.
Nope, he doesn't remember anything.
She hurried to the Great Hall and took a seat in front of Ginny, praying that she wouldn't ask to many questions.
"Morning" Ginny greeted her.
"Mornin´"
Hermione poured some pumpkin juice into her glass and started spreading a toast with butter.
"Everything alright?" Ginny asked suspiciously, noticing her eagerness.
"Yeah...sure"
"Hum...did something happen...last night...or this morning, that you wanna talk about?" a grin was forming on her face.
Hermione sighted, she couldn't help telling her.
"Ok...I'll tell you..." she whispered in defeat "...just don't go blabbing about it to Parvati or Lavender!"
Ginny nodded and Hermione told her everything about last night - well - almost everything...except the necklace part...and the one after that…and also the fact that William was a vampire...
"Gross...Malfoy almost kissed you!"
Hermione nodded and finished her toast. In a bit of a hurry, she got up and waved goodbye at Ginny.
Her eyes quickly searched the Slytherin table for William, but didn't find him. She got out of the Hall and made her way to Charms, trying not to remember that after that she had Potions.
Charms went pretty well. They had to prepare and cook food using simple spells. Ron was making lasagna and Harry some Pork Chops, while Hermione preferred some Calamari and veggies. She actually forgot about having class with William next, that is, till they had to clean up the mess and head for the dungeons...
When Harry, Ron and Hermione got there, professor Slughorn had already arrived and was gathering some ingredients from his cupboard.
"C'mon in! Today you're going to finish your Polyjuice potions and trade hairs with your classmates!" Slughorn said cheerfully, as Hermione seated down beside William.
"Good morning" he greeted her.
"Morning..."
"Slept well?"
"Hum... yeah...sort of" she replied, remembering that she had almost dreamed about kissing Malfoy."...how about you?"
He chuckled softly and whispered to her " I don't sleep..."
She let out a surprised "Oh!" and continued...
"Then what do you do when everybody else is asleep?" she questioned curiously.
"Can't tell you..."
"Hum..." a bit disappointed, she started taking some parchment from her bag.
"But I can show you if you come with me tonight..." he replied grinning, and Hermione raised a questioning eyebrow at him.
"Where...?" she started asking but he interrupted.
"It's a surprise...we can go after your patrol tonight, that is...if you want to..." he looked up at her.
Hermione flashed him a smile and surrendered.
"Of course I want to!" she let out, making his face shine with satisfaction.
"Just make sure you tell Ginny that you'll be with me..."
"Hum...? Why?"
"It's better if I have a reason to bring you back..." William added calmly, making her remember that he was a vampire, and was taking precautions not to harm her in any way.
"Well, I have to go now..." he told her.
"Why?" she asked confused.
"Did you forget?" he chuckled "The Polyjuice Potions is only for Human transformations..."
"Oh! Ok...so see you later..."
"See you later..."
William got up faking an ill look and asked the professor if he could go see Madam Pomfrey. He received a "yes" immediately and left, winking at Hermione.
The day passed slowly, turning seconds into minutes and minutes into hours...At lunch, Hermione had to tell Ginny that she and William were going "somewhere"...
"He asked you out...?" Ginny was perplexed.
"Hum... kindda like that..."
"So, where are you going?" she questioned, curious.
"He's making a surprise, so I have NO idea..."
Ginny giggled and Hermione rolled her eyes. She was really impatient and even - for once in her life - she thought about ditching class, but her conscience quickly took over the situation.
Sometime later, she went to the Head's common room. It was almost time to patrol and Malfoy was grumpily waiting for her. Hermione left her bag in the dormitory and followed Draco to the portrait hole.
"I'll be watching over the Room of Requirement...Dumbledore said to..." Hermione told him.
"Whatever..." Draco said, before going the other way.
Hermione made her way to the Room of Requirement, no one in sight...
This is going to be boring...
She started moving back and forth in front of the - now camouflaged as a wall - door. More than forty-five minutes had passed and Hermione was now resting her back against the wall, thinking.
Where is he taking me? He didn't even tell me where to meet him!
Her patrol was almost over and, since there weren't any pupils in sight, she decided to take a walk. Hermione was heading for the 3rd floor, along the stairs and into another dark corridor.
What am I doing? Maybe he's just waiting for me at the common room...
She turned around and decided to go back... but someone grabbed Hermione from behind and pulled her into a very tight broom cupboard.
"What the...!" she let out before William covered her mouth with his hand. She was wrapped in his strong arms, unable to move. Slowly he loosened his grip and held up a finger to his lips, asking her to be quiet.
He opened the cupboard's door and took a peek to see if the coast was clear.
"Come on!" he whispered, getting out of the cupboard.
Hermione inhaled deeply, slowing down her heart beat, and followed him.
"Sorry for frightening you..." he apologized, now grinning lightly at her.
"It's ok" she smiled back "So, where are we going?" she questioned, following him to the end of the corridor.
"I told you it was a surprise! After we grab the Portkey you'll have to close your eyes..."
"Portkey? You mean we're leaving Hogwarts?"a stuned Hermione asked.
He nodded with a smirk and stopped in front of a goblin's statue.
"Dumbledore made sure I wouldn't be in the Slytherin common room every night doing nothing...C'mon, grab the left ear "he said, pointing at the statue. Hermione obeyed him, a bit confused. He copied her, amused with her confused look "Don't forget to close your eyes...Ready? One, two, three...Portus!"
Hermione closed her eyes, feeling his cold skin against hers and her feet levitating from the ground.
