hello! Heres Chapter 7

Hermione opened the fat lady portrait as she tightened her bag. She flung the painting open eager to get out before Ron and Harry woke up. Then she opened it to see Draco standing outside waiting.

"Morning." He said with a smirk.

"Er- Morning." She stuffed her wand into her pocket, "How did you know that i was awake early?"

Draco smiled, "Oh i didnt i was originally gonna wait here untill you came." Hermione felt touched, "Draco i wouldve woken up about an hour from now usually."

Draco nodded, "I know and i had some crackers in my pocket so i was willing to wait the hour," Hermione's heart melted.

"Well thanks for waiting." Draco took her hand and Hermione felt it warm her whole arm immediately, "We dont need to pretend, no ones around."

Draco nodded, "I want to."

Hermione had never wondered around the school as the sun was rising, alone with anyone. She walked past the open corridors and the sunlight was beautiful as the sky held colours of purple, pink, blue, orange, yellow. The stars were still faint by the clouds. The moon was no where to be seen, but instead a bright shining sun.

Hermione turned to Draco and smiled, "Im not pretending when i say this, your smile is beautiful."

Hermione blushed, "No," She reached up and brushed his hair around, "Your beautiful."

Draco went beet red. Wait are you- His head was racing. He didnt even blush when he was with Pansy.

"What are you doing today?" Hermione asked, "I mean it is saturday."

Draco sighed, "Ive got detention with Snape till lunch.

"What for?" Hermione asked as she frowned. "For allowing alcohol at the party last night."

Hermione sighed, "I will meet you at the willow tree by the south corridor gardens after lunch." Draco nodded, "Okay."

Hermione was applying chapstick with her other hand onto her lips, "Whats flavour is that?" he asked.

"Cherry." Hermione said, "Can i try some?" He asked. Hermione frowned in amusement, "sure."

She reached out to hand the chapstick to him but instead he leaned forward and kissed her. Then he broke apart, "Thats really good."

Then he kissed her again.

As Hermione let go of his hand for a moment so she could fix her jacket zipper, he felt cold. He remembered something that happened last night.

He had laid in bed for hours missing the touch of her on his hand, and the feeling of her lips. He thought it was strange at first. But then he just figured it was natural as he tricked his own brain into thinking they were together.

Then when she held his hand again it felt like all the light was restored in life...

Hermione sat the twisted branch covered in leaves and flowers on his blonde tufts of hair.

"There."

Jack sighed, "What is wrong with you two?"

Blaise laughed, "Agreed, your turning him soft."

"That she is." Draco smiled before he leant in for a kiss. Hermione leaned against the tree trunk as he leaned over while they were seated at the roots of a tree.

"Ugh, disgusting." Blaise scoffed.

Then Hermione, for once in a week, spotted Pansy making her way over to them.

"Can i talk to you alone?" she asked. Her black hair was out and she seemed annoyed. "Uh, yeah sure," Draco said as he got up, removing his arm from around Hermione's back.

Hermione continued talking with James and Blaise.

Draco followed Pansy over to the edge of the corridors, "Are you guys like official?"

Draco sighed, "Weve talked about this, you ditched me for that guy at Drumstrang."

Pansy shrugged, "You know i can always get you back." She leaned forward to kiss him, Draco took a step back. "Im with Hermione."

He took another step back. He only meant to say that untill Pansy wanted him back, and now she did, why was he saying no? I cant just use Hermione like that."Stay away from me." He snapped before turning away.

"What was that about?" Hermione asked. Draco sat by her side, "Pansy's trying to get me back."

"But remember were doing this to keep the boys away from me so i dont blackmail you, this isnt- wait is this about trying to get pansy back?" A hurt tone rose in Hermione's voice, "Are you using me?" she asked.

Draco stood up next to her, "No, no, im not-" He looked into her eyes, "I promise."

Hermione was costly with her decision, Hes using you Hermione. She liked him though...

"Fine." not absolutely consistent with her decision she just settled with it.

Jack and Blaise waited awkwardly, "Wanna go to the lake for lunch?" Jack said, breaking the silence.

"Yeah lets go." Blaise joined in. Jack and Blaise got up and hurried up and away past the tree.

Hermione still stared into his eyes. Draco starred back into her chocolate brown ones. "I promise im not lying."

Hermione crossed her arms. He stepped twoards her and lifted her chin with his hand, "I promise." Hermione nodded, "Okay."

He leant forward so their noses were almost touching, "I love you, and you only."

Hermione brought a hand to his neck and kissed him, hoping that it was true, and that soon their fake realationship would be done.

Hermione was reading in the library enjoying her fantasy book.

"Hermione? Please dont run, we need to tell you something."

Hermione looked up and spotted a red head, beside it a jet black one.

She sighed, she knew this day would come. "Yes?"

"Its about the letters-"

Shit."-We know their a joke written by Ginny but the problem is that Cormac doesnt."

Hermione raised her eyebrows, "What?" Ron sighed, "Ginny admitted to sending the letters as a joke." Thank you Ginny.

"But Cormac believes your unbelievably in love with him." Harry said. Hermione nodded, "Draco can handle that-"

"About that, Hermione." Ron added, "Why did you kiss him?"

Hermione's eyes stung with tears, "Because i wanted to."

Harry rubbed his temples, "Hermione we know thats a lie, so just tell us, did he curse you? enchant you?" Hermione stood up from her chair and snapping her book shut, "I knew it!" Her voice was cracking as a tear rolled from her cheek, "I kissed him because i wanted to!"

Ron rose his voice to a yell, "Why would you do that to us?"

Harry reached out and lowered the pointing finger Ron was jabbing at her. "Ron."

"I can kiss who ever i want! I dont see the problem?"

Ron got louder, "The problem is that you betrayed us, you know you hate Malfoy so you might as well tell us what he did, right now!"

Hermione took a step back, "He didnt do anything! You think hes some monster who hates Griffindores, but he loves me he cares about Me! He invited the Griffindore's to that party on friday night, but you just didnt come! Hes just a nice person but you fail to see that because your blinded by hate. Hey i might have been dating him for only a month, but trust me its been the best month of my life, trust me i would know if he hated you. You just dont know what hate is."

Ron took a step forward, "I dont know what Hate is?" He sighed, "Trust me i came to warn you, ive seen the two meeting together at night. Malfoy and Parkinson. They meet everynight and see eachother, he's double crossing you-"

"NO HE WOULDNT DO THAT! HES NOT A MONSTER!" Hermione yelled as she dropped her book her lips were trembling.

Ron raised his voice much deeper and darker than she'd ever heard, "NO, BECAUSE NOTHING BAD EVER HAPPENS IN YOUR WORLD BECAUSE YOUR A STUPID MUDBLOOD WHO DOESNT KNOW ANYTHING MORE THAN A PERFECT LIFE, HECK YEAH IM JEALOUS BECAUSE YOU DITCHED US FOR HIM LIKE THE TRAITOR YOU ARE." Ron was panting after that.

Tears were rolling from her eyes, "You- You just called me the M word."

It was too late before Ron had realized. Harry even looked at Ron strangely. "I dknt even know who you are anymore, because your definetly not my Ron who cares about me just like Harry. Not my Ron that would accept me." She couldn't belive she was saying this. "Stay away from me."

Then she walked straight past them and out of the isle of books.

Hermione Went to the study hall and walked over to the table that Draco and Blaise where working. She pulled her book bag out. "Hi." She choked.

Draco leaned over to kiss her on the cheek but saw the tear tracks and how Hermione's lips were trembling. "Hey."

"What happened at the library? I thought you were getting the potions book-"

Hermione nodded as she moved closer to him, "I met Ron and Harry while i was there."

"Oh." Draco put an arm around Hermione's shoulder. "Who cares what they say."

"He called me a Mudblood." She sighed, "I just figured he would never do that."

"But then he said something else." She looked into his eyes, "That you and Pansy were meeting everynight behind my back." Blaise glanced at Draco.

Hermione laughed, "But thats a load of bull, you wouldnt do that to me."

Her smile dropped as Draco starred at the floor. "Would you?" she asked.

Draco sighed, "Not entirely."

Hermione frowned, "What?"

"Listen it only happened on the first night of us 'together' and we just met together because she wanted to know why i kissed you." Hermione sighed. "Is that what she talked about earlier today?" She asked. Draco nodded, "But thats it."

Hermione nodded, "Anyway Ron hates me now and its my fault."

"Its not your fault."

"Well i kissed you first." Hermione said. "Im glad you kissed me. I dont care about Ron and Pansy, my heart only has room for one and thats you." He leant forward and kissed Hermione softly. Hermione kissed him back, but she wasnt too syre that kissing him was a good. idea.
