Chapter 17

Draco walked into the living room to find Hermione sleeping on the sofa. He was feeling extremely better now and had a feeling Hermione had figured out the next thing to get him better. Had she really sang? Ha, that was a funny thought.

"Malfoy?" Hermione murmured. Maybe she hadn't been as asleep as he had thought.

"Yeah?" He whispered back.

"How are you feeling?" Hermione asked some of the words cut off from her tiredness.

"Much better."

"Do you think it's contagious?" Hermione asked. Draco thought for a while.

"I don't think it is." He finally answered. "Why?"

"I'm taking the bed." Hermione announced.

With that Hermione got up, but she staggered backwards only to be fought by strong arms.

"Thanks." Hermione murmured.

"Uh.." Draco let go of her and she blushed walking the rest of the way fine.

'Bloody hell Draco! Stop saving the mudblood, it's getting annoying.' Draco thought as he made his way to the kitchen in hopes of getting something to eat.

Draco started to feel tired again and his head started hurting slightly. He should probably rest...but Hermione was in the bed and he was NOT sleeping on the sofa! Here we go again. Draco rolled his eyes and went up into the bedroom.

Hermione was sleeping, this time for definite as she was much more sprawled out. She didn't look half bad when asleep:she wasn't scowling at him or annoying him, she had a small smile on her face as she dreamt about god knows what.

'When did you start thinking about how Hermi-Granger looks?' Draco asked himself. He shrugged off the thought deciding that his head was hurting the more he thought about it. He got one pillow off of his two and put it down the middle(the best he could as Hermione's limbs were all over the place) then looked at Hermione, he needed another pillow. He slowly teased her top pillow away from her head, it was going well until the end when her head fell onto the next pillow. Hermione stirred then went back to sleep.

"Thank god you're a heavy sleeper" Draco whispered before getting under the covers and going to sleep.

Hermione woke up in bed next to...Draco!? What the hell? When did he get there? She also noticed that he had made a pillow wall-this made her smile a bit-that they were both over. Draco's leg was over Hermione's and she couldn't move it.

"Malfoy." Hermione shook him awake easily as he was a rather light sleeper.

"Wha-at." Draco rubber his eyes.

"Move your leg." Hermione said in an amused tone.

"Why do you sound so happy?" Draco groaned.

"I don't know, you get all whiny in the morning." Hermione shrugged.

"I get whiny when you go over the pillow wall and wake me up so I can move my leg."

"Check again." Hermione lifted the covers to reveal both their legs over the pillows. "Hypocrite." She joked. Today seemed to be one of those days where you're just...happy. It was probably because she had finally gotten a good night sleep.

"So are you." Draco said. It wasn't an argumentative tone like Hermione was expecting, instead a more joking tone.

"Fine we're both hypocrites, happy?" Hermione put her hands up in mock defeat.

"Very." Draco nodded. They seemed to realise that their legs were still tangelos at the same time as they both jumped slightly and started to move away.

"Hey Granger?" Draco asked at breakfast-they gas waffles this time.

"Yes?" Hermione returned.

"Did you sing last night?" A bemused smile played on Draco's lips. Hermione buried her head in her hands and nodded.

"Did it work? Because I figured you'd have to sing to me afterwards, but you seem fi-" Draco cut her off.

"It comes in waves now. Like I feel tired most of the time and every few minutes I have a migraine." Draco explained.

"Do you know what I sang?" Draco shook his head. "It was my favourite song, it's called 'How do you love someone?' I sang the first verse and the chorus. I'm assuming you'd have to sing the second verse, but I don't know it."

"We have to sing now?" Draco asked disgusted.

"If you want to live." Hermione shrugged.

He would have to do it once she fell asleep, otherwise he wasn't going to. There was no way she was hearing him sing.
