5 Days 'til Christmas

Hermione woke up the morning with a dreamy smile on her face. She peeked out of her window pulling back the heavy velvet curtains the school grounds were still covered in a thick blanket of snow. The sky was clear blue and the sun was shining brightly.

Her heart jumped a bit when she remembered the previous night, 'you always look good to me'.

It wasn't like Harry never paid her any complements, he was always doing it but never once had he seemed as sincere as Draco had last night.

Hermione laughed at herself, of course he wasn't being serious he was probably expecting her to roll her eyes and make a snappy remark about sexual harassment. That's what she should have done, what she would have done normally funny how seeing a person smile could change your perception of them on a matter of seconds.

She made her way to the bathroom to have a shower. As she walked in she froze. Draco was stood there in nothing but a towel, cleaning his teeth. His eyes were bloodshot and he didn't notice Hermione when she first walked in, only when Hermione muttered her apologies did he turn to look at her.

He studied her closely, hoping to god that she couldn't hear the thumping of his heart. She looked like an angel. Her hair was all over the place and the night slip she was wearing clung to all the right places. Draco didn't understand how anyone could look that innocent and at the same time so desperately sexy. He muttered some thing inaudible to Hermione and quickly left.

He marched quickly in to his room slamming the door behind him then whacking it with his head. He clenched his fists and tried to stop himself from screaming out loud. He rubbed his temples and tried to get his nerve back. He gazed over to his bedside table at the silver sparkle coming from something on its surface.

3 am that morning

Draco's restless sleep was disturbed by a small pop. He rubbed his sleepy eyes and tried to get his eyes accustomed to the darkness of the room. Suddenly the lamps flittered on and before him stood his father.

'With less than 6 days left to complete the task I'd rather hoped you would be a little closer to having her under your thumb' Lucius said stonily.

'Don't worry about it father, I have it all under control' Draco was now sat up trying to hide the shivers, he wasn't cold.

'I don't care how you do it boy, I need that girl alive, in this room on the 25th of December at 12 o'clock at night'

'she will be there, no problem, midnight sharp'

Lucius put his hand in to his pocket and brought out a silver thin chain, attached was a small silver pendant with diamonds that glistened in the light.

'I want her wearing this as well, now be careful son this necklace can not be forced on, the wearer must be willing to wear it, however once it is on it cannot be removed by anyone other than a pure blood.'

'What will the necklace do?' Draco asked curiously

'You will see in good time you must have faith in lord voldemort'

'Will we kill her?' Draco was trying to hide the fear in his voice

'Of course we will you idiot' Lucius scolded, 'oh dear, I do hope you haven't become too attached to her, that would really be to bad, remember, no cock ups from you, it will only result in death for you and I'm sure you don't want that'

'Don't worry father, as for becoming attached to her I'm starting to doubt your sanity. I expected you of all people to understand that I could never love something as filthy as that.'

'Good then there's no problem, one other thing Draco'

'Yes father' Draco said through gritted teeth

'It has been decided that when we collect her she will need to be in a fragile emotional state, her magic will be weaker then so she will be less likely to attempt escape, not that she'd succeed but its less hassle for us if she goes quietly. I'll leave it up to you how you do it I'm sure you'll find some way of breaking her heart.'

With that he was gone and Draco punched the wall so hard that his knuckles began to bleed. He then fell in to a terrifying restless slumber.

Draco sighed, he knew what to do, he had a plan and, in theory, it was fool proof. He just couldn't trust himself not to mess it up.

Later that day Hermione and Draco were both sat by the fire in the common room they had just had their first full civil conversation and both were a little shocked.

'How's it going with Harry then?' Draco asked carefully

'Oh,' Hermione hadn't really thought about Harry much lately, she'd seen him briefly but he's always seemed a little distracted, Hermione, being distracted herself didn't really notice or mind. 'Its ok I suppose'

'That good eh?' Draco said with a frown

'What do you mean by that?' Hermione said stiffly folding her arms across her chest.

'I didn't mean any thing by it!' Draco sat up defensively, 'But you could do a lot better'

'Oh like who? You perhaps?' Hermione said a little louder than was necessary and standing up.

'And why not!' Draco shouted, standing up too.

'Because, your… YOU'

'Cleverly observed but what does this have to do with you and me?' Draco replied sarcastically

'There is no you and me you jerk' Hermione was red in the face, 'there never has been, there never will be. Not only do I have a boyfriend but you have spent most of your teenage life thinking up hurtful nicknames for me and using them… a lot!'

'And why do you think I did that?' Draco roared.

Hermione shook her head in disbelief 'what the hell has gotten in to you in the last couple of days' she said quietly as she left the common room and went up to her bedroom.

'You have no idea' Draco murmured once she was out of earshot
