The SEX GOD…Having a Wittle Bit of Twouble!
Hermione rolled her eyes and watched as Draco and Blaise 'oh so subtlety' whispered in front of her, and continuously turned around to give her sharp looks.
"Oh Ginny! Are we EVER going to find out what those two are up to?" Hermione whispered dramatically, sarcasm dripping in her voice, and turned to Ginny.
But Ginny was too busy ogling over Blaise.
"GINNY! Wake UP! The guy's SUPER ugly! Come on! This was probably all his idea, what are you thinking?" Hermione whispered furiously, slapping Ginny to knock her out of her daze.
Ginny sighed. "But it was soo romantic, 'Mione! I wish you could have been there…"
Hermione stuck out her tongue and gagged.
"No thanks, Ginny. I mean…go for the guy if you ABSOLUTELY have to, but please…just think about all of this before you go and do anything stupid alright?"
Ginny and Hermione turned the next corner in the maze, and were quite for a few minutes.
"Alright, Hermione. But for goodness sake. I LIKE the guy. At least I'm willing to admit it." Ginny mumbled.
Hermione gave her a quick look. "What do you mean by that?" She asked suspiciously, flicking her eyes at Draco's back, before looking back at Ginny, but Ginny had noticed, and started giggling.
"God Hermione…the guy wants to be FRIENDS with you, even if he is an arsehole. Stop being depressed about the whole thing and just get to know him." Ginny answered.
Hermione sighed and looked up at the dark, gloomy sky.
"I don't know, Ginny. I don't even KNOW the guy well. And I'm pretty sure he's just coming around for a good shag, don't you think? I mean…he HAS been mean to me since the moment I met him all those years ago. But you're right. That night in my tent before he turned into an arsehole…he was pretty nice!" Hermione pondered.
Ginny shrugged. "Some people change Hermione, and personally, I seriously doubt that Draco is playing with you. I think he's being an arse about the whole thing, but I think he's changed Hermione. He's NOT playing with you. And bloody hell, if he or Blaise were ever betting each other or something about all of this, I'd kill 'em alright?" Ginny grinned, patting Hermione on the back.
"Yeah, ok. We'll see what happens. But he will DEFINETELY die if he's playing with me." Hermione growled, eyeing Draco with a hard look, before giving in and smiling at his figure in front of her.
Little did she know that Draco was just in front of her and… hadn't heard anything. He was too busy trying to remember how many girls had called him 'You Sex God!' in the past year. And yes ladies, he had lost count.
Draco could feel that tingly feeling again, right in his chest, and he knew that it wasn't normal. Either someone was giving him looks from behind, or he was just hungry. Either way, he was DEFINETELY going to look into it.
He turned around quickly, flicking his eyes over Pansy's face, Blaise and the two dweebs that deserved to be a part of the ground below him, and that's when he locked eyes with Granger. 'GRANGER…alright then…WHAT THE FUCK!' Draco gave her a questioning look, but Hermione's blushed and mini Weasley started giggling and whispered something in her ear.
"Damn girls…" He muttered, and whistled Blaise over so he could have a little chat with him.
"Having trouble with the ladies?" Blaise asked, smirking as he watched Draco's confused expression turn into one of anger.
Draco didn't say anything, and began to play with his thumbs.
"Ok…don't tell me. But buddy, know that I'll help you out because I've had experience in that area, well at least NOW I have…" Blaise smiled and turned to Ginny to give her a friendly smile. She returned it with a little giggle and a wave.
"Oh shut up…" Draco whined. Draco turned to see Blaise smile at Ginny, and once again locked eyes with Hermione. What the hell was going on with him? He couldn't even THINK straight with that bloody girl behind him!
"I think Granger is starting to accept me as a friend…PROGRESS! BUT buddy…BET TIME! Come ON! Give me a dare to make things interesting." Draco grinned.
Blaise sighed. God, if only poor wittle Draco knew that bloody Granger was interested in him, he wouldn't be such a doofus right now! But it was up to Draco to find this out, and Blaise could only push them in the right direction!
Evil music could be heard in the background as Blaise turned to Draco and gave him a menacing look.
"You buddy, are going to do the ultimate thing. YOU…are going to be friendly to her and seduce her, alright? It won't be hard seeing as you already like her! She'll be on to you in 2 seconds, but it's what you do after the seducing bit that counts." Blaise grinned. Little did Draco know, that this was Blaise AND Pansy's plan of getting him together with Hermione!
Draco growled. "I do NOT like her!" He whispered quickly, turning around to glare at Hermione before turning back around, being VERY unsubtle.
"They're talking about you Hermione." Ginny whispered to Hermione, smiling.
"I know!" Hermione rolled her eyes.
"And….?" Ginny questioned, nudging her nudging her friend in the ribs.
"And…NOTHING." Hermione replied bluntly, ending the conversation about that darn boy that was making her feel funny! DAMN HIM!
"Then prove it. I dare you to seduce her and then tell me that you feel nothing for her. Alright?" Blaise asked calmly.
"I will keep my pride here, Blaise! Fuck love man, I will NOT have it! I will ALWAYS feel nothing for her!" Draco answered quickly.
But yes…his little fluffy part of his brain was saying the exact opposite. It was screaming, 'You ARSEHOLE! You are SOO attracted to her!'
Yes. He'd just admitted. The sexieist Sex God of all Sex God's, was attracted to the curly haired Gryfindorr girl, who, if she ever found out, would probably puke at the sight of him. Ouch. That hit a soft spot for poor Draco. Draco gulped and took a deep breath, somewhat satisfied with his outburst.
Blaise shrugged.
"Alright. You prove it to me then." Blaise stretched out his hand and shook hands with Draco, who eagerly responded by squeezing Blaise's hand EXTREMELY tight, in his own. Blaise winced and grinned at Draco.
"And buddy. I don't need any dares anymore. I think I can get Ginny for myself now." Blaise grinned.
Draco patted him lightly on the back. "Well! You'll be getting some soon won't you, you lucky bastard!"
Blaise grinned and winked.
"Alright! Quite the whispering you guys! I think we've found some sort of way to get out of here. Hermione, you and Draco take this direction and check out where it heads. We'll stay here and wait for you guys to come back to us alright?" Blaise asked, stopping after he couldn't take the non stop walking that they had been doing for the past 30 minutes.
Ginny grinned at Blaise, as if she understood what he was up to, and looked at Pansy, Harry and Ron.
"NO! We are NOT leaving Hermione with that disgusting git!" Ron shouted.
Hermione rolled her eyes. She was sick to death of this maze and more then anything, she just wanted to get out of here and back into her bed sheets at Hogwarts. And bloody hell, if she had to go through Draco to get there, then she would.
"Ron, Harry forget it. Let's just get out of here alright. I'll be back before you know it!" Hermione smiled, and gave them all a small wink before walking into the direction that Blaise pointed to.
Draco smirked at Blaise and followed Hermione.
"This is going to be fun!" Blaise grinned, and Ginny laughed, understanding what he was trying to do.
"Oh shut up, you dirty pig." Ron shouted back. "And STOP flirting with my sister!"
Blaise rolled his eyes.
Ginny grinned. "Would you rather I flirted with Draco?" She asked innocently, puckering her lips and poofing her hair up with her hands.
Ron shuddered. "Anything but that stupid git who's first words as a baby must have been, "Me ferret! Me ferret!"
Ginny laughed but said nothing.
Hermione rolled her eyes and turned left, trying to hurry away from the other's, who were watching her and Draco curiously from behind.
"So…what's new Granger?" Draco asked huskily, suddenly a lot closer to Hermione then seconds earlier, making Hermione very uncomfortable.
"Nothing." Hermione replied shortly, trying to act distracted and speeded up her steps, but failed as Draco grabbed her arm and stopped her.
"Do you even know where we're going?" Draco sighed, looking back at the direction that they had come from.
"Anywhere, just away from you." Hermione replied bluntly, pulling her arm away from his hold and gave him a dark look.
"Ouch, Granger. That hurt." Draco whined, whacking himself in the chest, as if what Hermione had just said was a very painful blow to his ego (well…maybe…he had to admit that it WAS…)
Hermione growled and sighed, letting out the tension that was slowly rising inside her.
"What game are you trying to pull Draco? Since when have you even tried talking to me? I mean…yes, we're on this camp because we have to learn to get along and grow 'unity' with our houses, but you didn't really have to. You could have faked it. So tell me," Hermione said seriously, looking him straight in the eye. "What's in it for you?"
Draco's eyes flickered away from her face for a moment, before staring straight back into her eyes.
He smirked. "Are you seriously asking me that Granger? Why can't a guy like me, be nice to you? Is that some sort of crime?"
Hermione rolled her eyes. He was turning her words against her, and by the look of his face and that trademark smirk, he knew it too.
"No…it's just…I dunno…" Hermione mumbled, obviously embarrassed now. Oh my god…IDIOT! She thought. Stop talking and find a way out of this maze! Her mind screamed, but instead, she turned to Draco.
Draco smiled and took out his hand, placing it between them.
"We got on well on the first night in the tents, can we at least be friends?" He asked, giving her a charming smile.
Hermione scanned his face, looking for any sign of evilness, but found none.
She timidly reached out her hand and shook his hand with her own.
They both suddenly felt this big pull from between them, as they smiled at each other, and Hermione let go sharply, while Draco breathed in deeply.
"What the hell?" Draco asked sharply.
"I don't know…" Hermione mumbled, blushing slightly. That tingling feeling in her stomach had just blasted inside her, and Draco had felt it too! What was happening to her?
Hermione turned away and quickly started retracing her steps, with Draco close behind her.
"Wait, Granger! Stop!" Draco shouted, and started running after her.
"Stop you stupid girl!" Draco growled, and with anger filling up in him, grabbed her and jerked her roughly to his chest. How dare she run away from me like that? It's not as if I was feeling her up or anything…well…not yet… Draco smirked, the anger quickly fading away at his own joke.
Hermione blinked and took in a deep breath, taking in Draco's scent, that smelt strongly like vanilla.
She sighed. Wait…did she just sigh?
"Um…why are you sighing Granger?" Draco asked politely, poking her softly in the back.
Hermione shook her head and locked her arms around his waist, pulling him towards her. "Let's find a way out of here ok? No time for fighting. I'm sick of it and frankly, I just want this camp to be over so I can get back to Hogwarts. That ok with you?" Hermione asked quietly, looking slowly up into his eyes.
Draco didn't reply, just continued staring into her eyes, wondering why, after all these years, he hadn't realised that Hermione had really pretty eyes, and she actually moulded perfectly with his body. Oh God…what was he thinking? Don't fall for the girl! SEDUCE HER! Perfect Draco, go!
But the seducing was long gone from his mind, and while he was contemplating wether to push her away or snog her senseless, he didn't realise that Hermione was staring at him curiously.
While Hermione was still being somewhat courageous, she used the last part of her energy and did the one thing she never thought she would do in her lifetime. Draco had kissed her once during that dare (still a sweet kiss Hermione had to admit), and again in their tent. It was time to at least thank him for giving her the best kiss she would ever get in her life wasn't it?
No time to think. Her lips touched his and Hermione closed her eyes.
Draco's eyebrows raised, but he said nothing, only pulled her closer and laced his arms around her waist so that she could reach her arms around his neck.
Hermione sighed and opened her mouth to let him explore her mouth with his tongue. The tingling in her stomach had faded away the moment she was touching him, but instead, she felt this happiness inside her that she hadn't felt for a long time.
Oh god Hermione. Admit it. You have a crush on a Sex God with an ego the size of the universe. Yes…never ending!
Hermione cringed in her mind. What the hell was she thinking?
But all thoughts went away as Draco started stroking her hair with his left hand.
Gosh. Life was great sometimes…
"Oh golly goodness! Look at the skill! That art! It's bloody terrific!" Dumbledore roared, coughing up a piece of popcorn in the process.
Yes people, the great Dumbledore was sitting in front of his TV, watching the kissing scene between Draco and Hermione.
You may all be screaming out, 'Oh MY GOD old man! Go get a HOBBIE!' Well let me tell you…I would too. But the old guy is too busy trying to win and well…wouldn't listen anyway, when he could just, I dunno…JINX ME!
Carlos sighed and sat back in the couch. God…it had been a long day. Darting back between Dumbledore and McGonagall sure was hard, and more then anything, he just wanted to get out there, and try and help those poor kids before they were killed or something! Cause really, when Dumbledore wants to win, HE WILL win, and even a little baby mouse won't stand in his way.
Dumbledore quickly flicks a baby mouse out of his way to prove his point
"Excuse me sir. Do you mind if I go out there now? I think those kids are going to need some help getting out of the maze with Scruff don't you think?" Carlos asked slyly, a plan forming in his mind. If he wanted to have a free date with Granger, he was going to have to get moving before she went out with Malfoy, and FAST!
He quickly shuddered as he looked up at the TV and saw Hermione's hand reach up to mess with Draco's hair.
"Eww…Malfoy germs…" Carlos grinned.
Dumbledore laughed, his eyes sparkling a little too much for his own good. "Oh…go on boy. Get out of here! Just remember that Scruff can only carry two people at a time. HINT HINT. Got that?" he grinned.
Carlos sighed. "Got it sir! I'll be back before you know it!"
And Carlos wizzed out of Dumbledore's office, hearing the laughing sounds of the old man behind him.
"God, the guy REALLY needs a girl…" Carlos mumbled, and flicked back his hair out of his eyes.
Draco turned away from Hermione's lips and gave her a kiss on the cheek.
Hermione slowly opened her eyes.
She said nothing, but looked up at him with her mouth shaped in a silent 'o'.
"Wow." She whispered.
"Yeah. Not too bad yourself Granger." Draco smirked, a small blush creeping to his cheeks.
Hermione smiled, then cringed. "Argh! Shoot! You distracted us! We're supposed to find a way out of here!'
Draco rolled his eyes.
"It's a NEVER ENDING maze, Hermione. Never ending. HELLO…THE NAME TELLS ALL! What did you think the other's sent us out here for? To ACTUALLY find a way out of a NEVER ENDING maze?"
Hermione eyes blazed and she gave him a hard look, trying to cover the blush that was covering her cheeks, but failing miserably.
"WHAT! You mean this was all..a…ARGH! You JERK!" Hermione shouted, and punched him lightly on the shoulder.
She felt like hitting him hard for pulling her away from her friends at this time when their lives could be in danger, but she couldn't. She had just kissed the guy for goodness sake. And Hermione just realised, he kissed her BACK! ARGH!
Hermione grinned and patted his shoulder after punching it.
"Wouldn't want to bruise your ego anymore then I have, Draco." She blushed, using his first name, which sounded nice coming out of her mouth.
Draco shuddered when she said his name. "Shut up." He teased.
They both grinned at each other and traced back the way they'd come.
Hermione smiled to herself. So she had a little crush on Draco. I mean, the guy HAD kissed her a few times in a short amount of time on this camp, so what harm was it in kissing him once to? It's not as if he even LIKED her. He was just playing around with her. But Hermione didn't want to think about that, because she didn't like how that sounded, and more then anything, she wanted to enjoy this moment she was having with Draco, which she would remember for a long time.
Little did she know that Draco DID in fact have a small crush on her too, and was having FAR more problems then she was!
What stopped Hermione's mind ticking though, and shocked her out of her skin, was when Draco slipped his hand into hers, so they were walking side by side all the way back to their friends.
He probably doesn't even realise he's doing it. I've been stubborn long enough. It's time to be friends for a little while. What's the harm in that right? Hermione thought to herself, giving Draco a pretty smile.
Draco gave her a sexy smile in return, winking in the process.
Oh gosh. Hermione though. There could be A LOT of harm…
Carlo filed his nails impatiently, waiting for the 'oh so sweet couple' as Dumbledore had put it, to come into view. He was a few hundred metres away and at least a dozen corners from the rest of the gang, so all was going according to plan…
He watched as Draco and Hermione awkwardly began walking into view, but stopped suddenly as they saw him standing there, one leg propped up leaning against the wall, his arms lazily crossed in front of him, giving them a big smirk.
"Well…what do we have here?" He asked, flicking his eyes over their holding hands, up to Hermione's blushing face, and slowly over Draco's angry figure, before resting on his cold silver eyes, burning back at his.
"What do you think dumb arse? We're trying to find a way out!" Draco retorted.
"Draco!" Hermione hissed. And let go of his hand before stepping quickly over to Carlos.
Draco gulped and felt a painful pang of hmm…could it be jealousy, as Hermione quickly raised over to the pretty boy metres away from him.
"Where have you been! And what the hell are you doing here?" Hermione squealed, remembering how Carlos and Draco had helped save her from that monster in the cave.
"Oh, places, ya know…But now I'm back! And I'm here to save you." He winked and grabbed her hand.
Hermione stiffened, but didn't pull away. His eyes were sparkling to mischievously, and she had a feeling he was up to something.
"Well…um…" She started awkwardly. "Where's Scruff? Can he get us out of here? Because it's starting to get dark and I REALLY want to get out of here." Hermione mumbled, trying to pull her hand away, finally.
'Took her long enough!' Draco yelled to himself, and angrily stomped over to Carlos, pulling his hand away from Hermione's.
Hermione blushed.
Carlos laughed. "Come on, then." He said cheekily, ignoring the GLARE of DEATH he was receiving from Draco, and blew a kiss at Hermione.
Hermione rolled her eyes. Gosh…the guy was too much like Draco for his own good!
Carlos began walking backwards and because he was trying to be oh so cool, whacked into the wall behind him.
"Um yeah…" Carlos winced, and with Draco cracking up in laughter, began racing back to the gang.
Hermione and Draco followed closely behind.
"Guys! Where have you been?" Ginny yelled, dashing over to Hermione to give her a MASSIVE hug, yes…Hermione couldn't breathe for a few seconds.
Blaise watched suspiciously as Draco waltzed his way over to him. Draco casually patted him on the shoulder stood next to him.
"What happened in there? Some hanky panky?" Blaise whispered eagerly at him.
Draco smirked. "Oh yeah! I mean…just a little…but I'm IN!" He whispered cockily.
Blaise sighed. "Oh…finally!" He prayed, looking up to the heavens.
Draco gave him a quick look. "What do you mean finally? It's all for the dares mate! Nothing more!" Draco lied, trying to hold his ego in.
Blaise rolled his eyes. "Mate…you're falling. Accept it!"
"NO!"
"Yes!"
"NO!"
"YES Damnit!"
"No DAMNIT!"
"YEEES"
"NOOOO!"
"YEEEEE-"
"Enough idiots. Scruff is coming so can you please get off the ground…Blaise…get your fist OUT of Malfoy's mouth…Draco, let go of his….OH PLEASE! BOOOOYS!" Hermione shouted, not knowing what they were talking about, while the rest of the group knew…
Carlos rolled his eyes and casually strolled over to Hermione, and clicked his fingers. In that split second, Scruff appeared in front of them out of a poof of…was that talcum powder?
"Scruff at your service!" Scruff barked, giving Carlos a nod with his head.
"Finally!" Ron breathed.
All the gang piled onto Scruff's large back while Carlos managed to knock Draco out of the way so that he could sit behind Hermione, quickly lacing his arms around her waist.
"Hold on…" he whispered, making Hermione shiver. What! NO…she shouted to herself. Don't shiver! You like Draco! DRACO!
Draco growled jealously and sat behind Carlos, digging his nails HARD into Carlos' waist, making Carlos take a quick breath.
And so…the gang took off the ground, with Blaise sneaking in behind Ginny, and Harry in front of Pansy, and Ron, well Ron got to sit on the end and had to hang onto Harry with all his strength! Poor Ron…
A few hours later, Scruff and the gang landed at a large house, much like a Cabin but LARGER.
"Wow!" Draco whispered to Blaise.
"I know! This must be Dumbledore's doing! A break from sleeping on the hard floor. Awesome!"
"Oh, no…a note!" Ron wrinkled his nose and picked up the note at the step of the large cabin.
Carlos grinned. Excellent…everything goes according to plan…he thought.
'Hello everyone!
You got out alive! I am very happy for all of you! I hope Scruff was a comfortable ride here. He will be there for you if you get into any trouble along the way, so don't worry.
(Draco growled softly)
Tonight you will be sleeping in this large cabin, but in partners in separate rooms with your own king size bed, and bathroom shared between the two of you! And for the lucky person who is by themselves, you will have your own muggle television…just kidding children! You'll be able to look out the window and enjoy the scenery! Maybe do a little bit of homework during your spare time?
(Ron rolled his eyes and shouted 'AS IF!' before he continued reading out the letter.)
Please be careful tonight though, because your real adventure starts here. You're going to have to learn to work together with the other house, and above all, stick together.
You'll be learning some spectacular moves during your stay tonight and during the day tomorrow, seeing as I have decided you will stay here for a few days.
The pairs will be:
Blaise and Ginny
Harry and Pansy
Ron and Hermione
And Draco Malfoy will be the lucky one by himself tonight!
Have fun and please don't get into too much mischief.
Dumbledore
PS…The popcorn and coke is in the fringe! Go mingle children!'
And with that, the letter poofed away, with talcolm powder the only thing remaining in it's place.
"What! I'm by myself!" Draco whined.
"Yeah! And where do I sleep?" Carlos whined as well.
"Who says you're staying here butt hole!" Draco hissed, giving him a dark look, which turned into a twitching look with one eye bigger then the other, and his head shaking around stupidly.
Hermione, Pansy and Ginny laughed, clutching their tummies with pain.
"What the hell Draco? Are trying to be any more disgusting?" Blaise shouted.
"Shut up!" Draco retorted, obviously angry that he hadn't managed to make an impression on Granger and make her shout out, 'Oh Draco oh! Take me now!', but rather…had her rolling around on the ground in obvious hysterics.
Hermione grinned and knocked her shoulder into Draco's before trotting up to the door and stepping inside.
Draco's mind whirled. Is it just me or is she…flirting with me!
"Argh! Sweet success!" He shouted, jumping over to Blaise and swirling him around in the air.
"Um…yeah…young love…" Blaise sighed and winked at Ginny as she walked past him, giving him a cute smile.
Pansy grinned at Draco and took Harry's hand. "Come on! You're with me tonight. Time for some fun, ey?" She whispered evilly.
Harry gulped but said nothing.
Hermione sighed and opened her bedroom door, peering in at the room in front of her.
It was amazing! A massive king size bed with silky red and golden sheets, obviously Gryfindor colours, and a walk in bathroom with marble tiles and green walls.
"Wow!" She whispered to Ron, who was in as much aww as her.
"Yeah! It's great! And I get to spend this time with you!" Ron whispered back, blushing a little.
'Oh great.' Hermione remembered. 'Darn it. Ron must still have a crush on me. How the hell am I going to get out of this one? I mean…I'm going to have to share a bed with him! Why couldn't it be…Draco…? Wait…did I just say that? HA HA…yup…I did! He's better then the other guys. I mean…his muscles, his gorgeous hair, his muscles…his smile…his muscles…his eyes…his muscle-'
"HERMIONE!" Ron yelled, his face red in exasperation.
"Yeah…?" Hermione sighed, sitting down on the bed in dreamland, brushing the silky red sheets under her fingers softly.
"Nothing." Ron replied shortly, walking out of the room with a huff.
"What's up his butt?" Hermione whispered to herself, but stopped her thinking as she realised that she had to come up with a plan for tonight!
Draco sighed. What a boring night. Nothing to think about and see other then himself. I mean…he absolutely adored doing that, but really…he'd rather be thinking about someone else. Wait…did he just think that?
Oh man. He was hooked!
He lied down on his bed and took his shirt off. Well…time to sleep till dinner, he thought, closing his eyes.
Dinner came, and for once, they didn't have to cook anything themselves. Hermione skipped down the hall from her and Ron's room, and sat down at the large dinner table.
"Hey Hermione." She heard a voice behind her.
"Hi!" She said enthusiastically, turning around, expecting to see Draco, but instead, coming face to face with Carlos.
"Mind if I sit next to you?" He asked calmly.
"Sure." Hermione replied, her heart starting to race as she noticed him give her that same curious look that Draco often gave her.
Carlos smirked and waited as the rest of the gang came in to sit down.
Draco came to sit down last, (with his shirt on) and sat opposite Hermione, his face becoming darker as he saw Carlos sitting closely next to her, having a conversation with each other.
Hermione sighed and could feel her heart beating much faster as she felt Draco's eyes on her face. She tried to ignore him and tried to continue listening to what Carlos was saying, something about carrots, but she couldn't focus, and slowly turned her head to stare at the angry look on Draco's face.
He was jealous and she knew it.
HA! He deserved it! Thinking he could get any girl he wanted! It was time the guy learnt that he couldn't always get what he wanted, well not yet anyway. Later on tonight he might…Hermione though mischievously.
Draco gave her a hard look, his eyes becoming slightly softer as she gave him a small smile. Damn the girl and the effect she had on him! He'd already forgotten that he had to seduce her for the bet. Ah man, screw the bet! He was going to get her instead, even if that meant fighting with Carlos, because he always got what he wanted, no matter what anyone said!
The dinner poofed in front of them all, and Draco eyed a chicken leg in front of him.
"Yum…" he whispered, licking his lips, and made a grab for the crispy piece of chicken.
But his hand met with Hermione's, which also wanted that same piece of chicken that he wanted.
He looked up at her and smirked. "Whatever." He said, looking away and with a last glance at her guilty face, stood up and walked up to his room, leaving a silent group behind him.
"What's up with him?" Pansy asked.
"Dunno. But I know what it's got to do with." Blaise replied, giving Hermione a quick glance.
Ginny giggled. "Hermione! Shame you're not in the same room as him tonight! You could REALLY make him feel better!"
Hermione gave a small smile and watched Draco's retreating figure.
"We'll see about that…" She whispered to herself.
Draco sighed and looked out the window, admiring the scenery in front of him. Since when was he doing what Dumbledore said to do!
NOT.
He was really lying down on his bed with his shirt off and his stomach growling with obvious hunger for that yummy piece of chicken that it had missed out on.
It had been a few hours since he had got up from the dinner table, and he still didn't know why he'd done that.
He knew it was something to do with Hermione and Carlos, and the only conclusion that he could come up with, was that he didn't want to see the two flirting in front of him.
"She can go get a room with him for all I care!" He said loudly, looking up at the ceiling.
"Are you sure?" He heard a soft voice behind him, and he quickly sat up and looked over at the door, to see Hermione standing there in her soft pink nightgown, staring into his eyes with hurt, as she held a plate of dinner AND that piece of chicken he wanted, in her hands.
"I…uh…" Draco mumbled stupidly.
"Come on. You're hungry. I'll keep you company, seeing that you're here by yourself tonight." Hermione said softly, coming up to him to place the plate of dinner next to him.
Draco looked at her hesitantly, wondering why she was doing this, before his stomach got the best of him, and he grabbed the piece of chicken with no other thought, and began eating quickly.
Hermione clicked her fingers.
"Coke?" She smiled fondly, and handed him the can.
Their fingers touched as she passed it to him, and Hermione shivered.
Draco looked up into her eyes and gave her a smile that she had never seen before. "What about Ron…and Carlos?" He added with emphasis.
Hermione rolled her eyes. "They'll be in that room tonight. Not me. I'm keeping you company. Now no more questions. You might choke!" She joked, wiping his mouth with her hand.
Draco looked into her eyes and saw something in them that he hadn't noticed before.
"Thanks." He mumbled nervously.
"No problem!" She smiled, and sat down on the floor, to look out the window at the moonlight, which was shining into Draco's bedroom.
Minutes past but the two teenagers said nothing, a comfortable silence between them and more then anything, enjoying each others company.
Hermione yawned and Draco pushed away him empty plate, and stood up and walked over to where Hermione was and sat down next to her.
Hermione sighed and laid her head on his shoulder.
Draco closed his eyes and slid an arm around her waist to pull her closer.
"Why do you care so much about Carlos and me?" Hermione asked softly, turning to look him in the eye.
Draco gulped and laughed nervously. "Well...maybe I like you…"
Hermione laughed. "Please! A Malfoy liking me? That's a new one!"
Draco looked at her with gentle eyes. "Yeah it is a new one isn't it?"
Hermione's eyes widened as he didn't play some nasty trick on her, instead…kind of said something nice!
Hermione closed her eyes and laid her head on his shoulder again.
"Mmm…" She whispered, snuggling into the vanilla smell of his chest.
Draco blushed.
"Well, we're friends so we can tell each other stuff can't we?" Hermione grinned.
"Yeah, I guess so." Draco replied.
"Well…I like candy!" Hermione giggled.
"So do I." Draco replied confusingly, noticing the cheeky look on her face.
"Well we're buddies now, and buddies can tell each other anything! So that's the latest I have to tell you." Hermione sighed, and closed her eyes.
Draco laughed. "Yeah! Well I can tell you that I really like you. More then a friend, Hermione. And frankly, I'm jealous of you and Carlos." Draco whispered, and turned to look down on Hermione, but was faced with a sleeping girl pressing her hands against his chest softly.
"Maybe next time ey? For now, I'll be your friend Granger. For now…" Draco whispered, and pulled his arms around her to hold her close, one last thought going through his mind,
'Wonder what's going to happen tomorrow?'
And as he closed his eyes to fall into a deep sleep, and shadow could be seen on the other side of the bed.
"Time to get lost in your dreams sweet hearts! It's time for YOU to fall in love with me Hermione. It's McGonagall's turn. And she doesn't play nice." Carlos whispered, and crept over to where the two sleeping teenagers were nestled together.
He pressed the left temple on Draco's head with his left hand and the right temple on Hermione's head with his right hand.
"It's show time!" And he clicked his fingers, and with a flash, his figure broke into two Carlos' and seeped through the temples of both the teens.
DUN DUN DUN! Hi guys! ARGH! Surprise! Happy Easter! I hope this was a GRAND chapter for you! Lots of fluff to apologise for my lateness, and hopefully lot's of reviews in return!
Yes……..the plot is thickening! And it looks like Carlos wants Hermione for himself! NO! What's this going to do for the relationship with Draco and Hermione, now that they're starting to get along, with a lot of …flirting involved….may I add! HE HE HE!
Don't worry…they're not together yet! They're going to be having a BIG adventure in this dream that will last a few chapters and will basically be a whole lot of humour and randomness, so prepare yourselves!
As I said before, Draco and Hermione won't be together till school starts, but I never said there wouldn't be a lot of FLIRTING before then…he he he!
GO SCRUFF! HA HA HA! More romance coming with the other characters and don't worry…Ron will be getting some love soon as well!
GO THE DARES! Ok…so maybe they're not really needed anymore, but this thing going on between McGonagall and Dumbledore has only begun, so don't miss out! Is the relationship between the couples going to be strained with what the two teachers are trying to do, or is it just going to make them go insane? WAIT AND FIND OUT!
I may not update for a little while, but don't worry…I will! Sorry I haven't really edited this chapter, I finally updated so I thought you guys would want it as soon as possible, if something doesn't make sense tell me!
REVIEW! I WILL update faster with the more reviews I get!
GO HOT GUYS! Has anyone seen 'She's the Man'? That is a REALLY good movie! I recommend people! It's my favourite at the moment!
POLL:
What's your favourite cheesy romance line from a movie?
One of my favs is from Pirates of the Caribbean: Will says to Elizabeth at the end of the movie, 'I should have told you everyday from the moment I met you…I love you.' And then he walks calmly away and nearly gets killed! ARGH! AWESOME! What's yours people?
OH! AND…How would you tell someone how you feel? Like if you wanted to tell them that you liked them? I know that I would say something on the lines of 'Um…I like cheese. Do you like cheese? Awesome! It's a date then!' NOT…I don't know what to say…ha ha ha! )
Draco: Rozie you really do suck you know that? BUT…my darling…go out with me!
Rozie: sigh If only all guys were like you Draco!
COUGH! OK…a little too cheesy for my liking! What do you think?
Love Roz xoxoxo PS! REVIEW! MORE REVIEWS QUICKER UPDATE!
