Chapter Eight: A wonderful evening.
"Do you want to go to my bedroom?" he kept his hand out, growing afraid she wasn't going to take it. She didn't say anything as she reached for it and followed him into his room and he shut the door once they both were in there.
Hermione stood in Draco's room and glanced around. It was the first time she had been in there and the large king size bed stood out more than anything else in the room. The hint of Slytherin colors she expected, where no where in this room. The sheets were a dark navy and the headboard black, the furniture around the area black. a bookshelf on the side of the room with books filling it, a desk near the door with all of his school books and parchments are neatly around. Hermione took a closer look at his bed and a red blanket was near the pillows of the bed, Gryffindor red.
"Why the red blanket?" asked Hermione getting closer to the bed as she looked at the blanket. He had been standing near his desk, watching her closely as she looked around his room. His hands in his pockets, as he suddenly was looking nervous she was there.
"Oh, well. It's red like Gryffindor. It made me think of you." he admitted quietly. Hermione looked at him questionably with her eyebrows raised.
"You sleep with it every night?" she asked, looking at him as she blushed.
"Yes."
Hermione breathed in heavily, unsure of what she was getting herself in too. She was so nervous standing there with Draco Malfoy. Before they had always been somewhere such as the library, taking walks outside by the lake. Now, she was in an enclosed bedroom where anything could happen. She got through her first thing she needed to do, tell him how she felt. She couldn't lie to herself anymore. Harry had been told and now the next person was Ron, who she knew would take it the worst. She knew Draco had made her happy the past few months and if Ron wouldn't accept it, she didn't know what she would do.
She felt so squeamish and the look on Draco's face he felt the same way. He was still studying her closely and then he finally mustered enough courage to walk closer to her where she still stood close by the bed. She didn't stop him, she had wanted him to be closer to her she just didn't know what to say or do to make him come to her. He sat on the side of the bed and she followed as she sat beside him only giving a few inches a part from them.
"Hermione." he said quietly, staring at her as he played with his fingers in his lap.
"Hmm?" why was she acting like such a teenager? She was an adult now, she needed to stop being so shy.
"Where we were just headed, do you want to continue or do you just want to talk?"
Hermione only smiled at him, of course she wanted to keep what they had been doing but what if she made a fool of herself. What if they started going somewhere she wasn't ready for or wasn't comfortable with?
"Draco, it's just like I said before. I've never done something like this before. I just don't want to embarrass myself. "
"What do you mean? Did you mean before that you're a virgin?" she nodded. "I thought you meant you didn't just go around and just do what we were doing! Hermione, you have nothing to fear."
"Well what about you?"
"Are you seriously asking me how many people I have slept with?" he frowned, knowing this was going to get very uncomfortable.
"Well-yes, I guess I am. If we are going to be serious about us then I think I deserve to know, don't I?"
He sighed, knowing that she was right. "I've only slept with one other person. I know I made it seem like it was more while we were growing up but it was just an act." she let out a breath, not realizing she had been holding her breath waiting for him to answer.
"I think we should also talk about us then. About what you just said, being serious?" he also said, when Hermione didn't say anything else an sat there awkwardly. When would the awkwardness go away? When would that fear feeling in her chest go away when ever he spoke of certain things? She knew this was going to be to good to be true, so what if he didn't want a relationship with her? She wouldn't just be someone he could sleep with when he felt like it. She refused to be someone with friends with benefits. The courage was coming back to her and she wasn't going to let that moment pass before he could say something that may hurt her.
"All right, yes you're right. We should talk about us before anything else happens." she paused, gathering her courage more, taking a deep breath and turned herself so she could look directly at him. He turned her way so he faced her and could watch her as she took charge.
"I meant what I said to Harry. The feelings I have are real, I care about you and I love you. I wouldn't have stood there and argued with him in the corridor for anyone to be able to hear if I didn't believe so. The past months I have had to spend with you have been wonderful. You have shown me what kind of person you truly are and have hidden all these years and you have made me happy. Happier than I thought I could feel after what we dealt with just last year. I came to school to keep myself occupied, to try to have a normal year at Hogwarts and help keep my mind off things to forget of the past and move on. Then you came along and changed that even more. You made me feel what I wasn't ready to feel, feelings that I didn't know were like. Frustrated me so much that I couldn't even go to sleep, or even study unless I was near you."
"All right, but-" he began to interrupt, but Hermione cut him off.
"No-let me finish." he smirked, loving her feisty attitude. "If you aren't going to be serious with me, then I can't let this go any further. I want something real and not just something that is a fling for you. I've been battling with myself for a while now knowing you couldn't really like someone like me but I don't want to be one thing to you when I'm feeling another thing."
"Can I speak now? Can you let me tell you how I actually feel?" asked Draco as she caught her breath. She nodded, playing with the edge of the blanket with her fingers as she waited for him to talk. "What ever you think I feel about this is obviously not the truth. You're wrong, I've been battling with myself for a very long time. The way I was with you before, because I thought I needed to be that way because of my family. After everything you've been through and you still agreed to accept my friendship. I don't deserve you, not because of why you think; it is because you are and will always be a better person than I could ever hope for myself to be. You are the most the most incredible person I have met and I have always thought so, although I wouldn't have admitted to it years ago. What we have is something that I am in for the long haul. I don't plan to give this up unless that is something you want. I didn't do it before, but I want to fight for you."
He took his hands and cupped her face so she looked right into his eyes, wanting her to see every feeling he felt when he stared at her. Her eyes filled with tears as she looked back at him. "I do care about you. I wouldn't be doing anything I have already if I didn't feel something. For Merlin sake I sleep with a Gryffindor color blanket because it reminds me of you. You may not think so, and in time I will show you but you have showed me how to care and how to love. Something I wasn't sure I was capable of doing after having the type of parents I have had and made me believe the things they did. I do love you. I want us to be something."
Before Hermione could say anything, Draco's hands still cupping her face, pulling her in closer to him as his lips crashed against her. He couldn't stop himself and he wants more, she didn't stop him either as she knew that whatever happened now between the two of them was because they both loved each other and he accepted her as she was as she accepted him.
She grabbed him, pulling herself closer to him as he moved himself closer to her and she fell down against the bed. She now laid on his soft bed with him laying on top of her, he hand on to her like he never wanted to let her go. She wasn't sure how long they laid there together, kissing each other like there were no tomorrow, her hands running against his perfect blonde hair, ruining the perfection it was moments before. She couldn't help herself, as she kissed hardly and felt her hips thrusting lightly toward him as she felt his member through is trousers once it began to harden.
Draco broke his kiss away from her, looking at Hermione wanting more of her but not wanting to push his luck so soon. They could feel their blood pumping through through the entire body, eagerly waiting for each others permission.
"Can I?" asked Draco, whispering in her ear as she felt the shivers run down her spine and her panties become wet. She was so drawn to his grey eyes looking over her hungrily that she didn't even say anything to him as he began tugging at her shirt to pull it over her head. Once it was over her head and through her brown curls, she went for his own shirt, unbuttoning it and letting it hang off him once she reached the last button so she could run her hands over his perfect chest and stomach. She found his lips, then down his jaw line and neck and continued to kiss as he moaned quietly, enjoying the touch of her skin against his.
Draco pulls Hermione up toward him so she once again is sitting in his lap, her school skirt over his lap so all that blocked his erection from her entrance was her underwear. He moved his hips slightly causing Hermione to moan as she can feel him so close. Draco continuous to kiss her, inviting his tongue into her mouth and she lets it in.
"Draco." moaned Hermione, once she broke away from his kiss and he looked at her his eyes bright.
"Do you want to keep going?" asked Draco, his voice soft like he needed more reassurance with her.
Hermione nodded, "Yes. Please. Yes." she said, nearly pleading as she could feel her underwear was soaked.
He puts his hand on the arch of her back, pulling her down against the bed so she was laying down once again. Slowly, he goes down her stomach and at her underwear lining and begins to pull them off with her skirt and once their at her ankles he pulls them over and down on the ground beside the bed.
"You're beautiful." he said, as he pulled his shirt off him, and Hermione only smiled as she raised up enough to went to his belt and began to unfasten it to be able to pull his pants down. She could feel her downstairs pulsating, screaming for more as she stared at him and once the pants and boxers were down, giving her a clear view of every inch of Draco her entire body was screaming. Every nerve in her body was jumping, and her hands shaking.
"Are you sure?" asked Draco, before coming closer to her once again.
"Yes." said Hermione without hesitation, pulling him on top of her. She could feel his erection right there, but he didn't enter. Instead, he kissed her passionately, lost in moment as he began to rub against her. Her hands trailed against his back, pulling him closer to her demanding more. He grabbed his erection and directed it to her entrance, she winced as it began to stretch her and he held himself up with his elbows against the bed.
"This may hurt and if it does we can stop, you just have to tell me to stop. Okay?" he said, his breathing hitched as he looked at her. The fear hitting her as she suddenly caught up from the moment. If it wasn't now it would just be another day and she nodded, biting her lip as she waited.
Very slowly, he entered her and her back arched as the further he went the pain sharpened causing her to gasp. He continued when she didn't say anything to him to stop, and once he was completely buried in side of her he looked at her with a look she had never seen before.
"Are you all right?" he murmured, trying not to move himself as he waited for her answer. The pain of him stretching her, dulled but the feeling of him being inside of her was overpowering anything else she felt.
"Yes, keep going."
Going slowly once more, he began to do some strokes, pulling out slightly and going back in, not wanting to give her the full effect as he wanted her to get used to it. Hermione moaned, hiding the dull pain she was feeling, knowing she would get used to it as they went on. He kissed her jaw, going down her neck as he continued pulling thrusting his hips back and forth, circling inside of her.
"Oh-Draco." she moaned, quietly wanting more of him.
"Feeling okay?" he asked once more, wanting to feel himself completely inside of her.
"Yes!" she felt her insides throbbing, screaming for more from him, she began jerking her hips and going back and forth with his motions, watching him for any sign that she wasn't doing something right. "More." she finally said, knowing he wanted to speed his pace.
He looked at her, and kissed her again and his hips started thrusting inside of her more, going as far as he could inside of her as he picked up his pace. She could feel something happening and she wasn't sure what it was. Her stomach was tightening and her thighs began to quiver. Everything felt like it was twitching to her as he continued ramming her and kissing her.
"Oh, Draco-!" moaned Hermione loudly, in his shoulder as he buried his face in her shoulder. "Yes!"
"You're so-wet. Merlin-" he breathed out, his breathing becoming hitched as he slowed his pace, "Does it feel good?" he asked as he moved his hips in a circular motion.
"Yes, yes!" she clawed his back as he jerked and his muscles tensed, the sudden thrusting stopped as he pulled himself out and finished. She laid in the bed, staring at the ceiling as she felt like she was in a daze. Her mind wondering in all sorts of directions. Draco pulled his wand out from the robes he had been wearing and cleaned themselves off before he crawled beside Hermione and laid with her.
"How do you feel?" he asked, once they finally seem to cool down and their breathing turning back to normal.
"Wonderful. That was wonderful. How was that for you?"
he raised up on his arm, to look at her. "It was wonderful." then kissed her on the lips.
XXXXXX
It was late and they hadn't been paying attention to the time. Luckily, Draco's dormitory was on the same floor as the Gryffindor's tower so she didn't need to sneak far. As Hermione made her way quickly and quietly through the corridor she had only hoped that no one was still awake in the common room as she walked in at such a late hour. The Fat Lady was furious to see that she had been out at this time of the hour but after being hushed by Hermione so opened her portrait to let her enter.
Her wish had come true when no one was in the common room and seem to be in bed. Classes were tomorrow so she had hoped no one would have been awake at 1 in the morning. She opened the dormitory door quickly, hoping it didn't squeak and wake anyone up. The rest of the girls were sleeping with the curtains drawn, and Ginny's was slightly open facing Hermione's side where their beds were beside each other. It had looked like she had tried to stay awake waiting for Hermione to come back.
The next morning came quickly and Hermione wasn't ready for the day to begin. She was sore, but she tried not to give anything off as she had gotten out of bed. Most of the girls were already out of the dormitory before she finally pulled herself out of bed. Ginny however, took her time as if she were waiting for everyone to leave.
"So?" asked Ginny, once Parvati Patil, the last girl who was in the dormitory left.
"What?" asked Hermione, yawning as she sat up in bed.
"What time did you get back here last night? I fell asleep waiting for you and you didn't even bother waking me up."
"Why would I wake you? You looked so peaceful when I came in."
"Do you care to tell me what happened? You left Harry and me yesterday, missed dinner. Harry was fuming, wanting to check the map wondering where you were. We figured you were with him so I told him not too because I didn't know what you two were doing. Then Ron was asking why he hadn't seen you since that morning and now Harry and I are both lying to him." she huffed, crossing her arms.
"I'm sorry, Ginny. I didn't expect to be gone so long I just lost track of time." she stood up from her bed, to begin getting ready for the day. If she didn't hurry she was going to miss breakfast.
"I don't want to hear any apology! I want to know the details of what happened with you!"
Hermione blushed, remembering everything that had happened to her last night. Of course she remembered everything with how sore she was feeling this morning. She had enjoyed every moment of it. Then after once they tried to calm themselves down, they laid together and talked, cuddled and talked more. Their hands playing together in the sheets, not wanting to let each other go.
"You're blushing." snapped Ginny, making sure the door to the dormitory was closed. "Something happened! Well obviously, since Harry and I walked in the middle of a make out session. What did he say when you told him you had feelings for him?"
"Ginny, will you calm down let me get ready."
"No! You kept me waiting all night. We are not leaving this room until you tell me what happened."
Hermione rolled her eyes and sighed, "All right, fine. Lets be quick about this. Yesterday I went to his dormitory and waited for him. When he showed up, I nearly ran away. I couldn't tell him. Which is when I ran off from him to the corridor you found us in, he finally cornered me and I told him how I felt. That's when he kissed me and you found us that way. After I left you guys I went to his dormitory to talk more since I told him I would come find him once I spoke to Harry. " Hermione stopped, not wanting to go into more detail.
"And?! That can't be all."
"No it isn't.. So we talked. I told him what happened and what was said between Harry and me."
"You didn't." said Ginny, wide eyed.
"I didn't what?"
"When you were talking to us Harry asked you and you told Harry that you thought you did love him? You told him that too?!"
"Yes, I did. I told him everything that I could remember."
"Hermione, you have no fear! What is happening?"
"Well it would've been said eventually right? I just let it happen now."
"Well what did he say about that?"
"Well he kissed me more, then we found ourselves in his bedroom. We spoke more about us and what I wanted and he wanted and then that's when he told me he loved me."
"Draco Malfoy can love." said Ginny, taking everything Hermione had told her. "Who would've thought." she looked up to Hermione, wondering if there were anymore. "You were in his his bedroom?"
Hermione nodded, feeling the blood rush into her cheeks.
"HERMIONE!" yelled Ginny, nearly in a squeal.
"Will you be quiet!"
"Did you sleep with him?!" she tried whispering, but it not coming out in a whisper.
"Ginny-stop! People can't know! Ron is still in the dark about all of this! He can't find out unless its from me!"
A/N: Ron will be finding out next chapter! Dun dun dun... Lets see how it happens..
