Hermione was ontop of the world. Her and Draco have been going strong for about 2 weeks now, and it was pure bliss. There was only one major deal hanging over her head these days, graduation.
Her graduation was less then 2 weeks away and, being Head Girl, she was in charge of just about everything, and she had to make her farewell speech to finish.
But, being with Draco these past few weeks had been her top priority, but now that she knew everything was going to be perfect, it was time to focus on the other things.

Hermione turned down the right corridor that led to the Gryffindor Common Room, she smiled as she saw the portrait of the fat lady, she hadn't been down this way in quite some time. She said the password and entered the room only to find a dark haired head and a head that nearly matched the fire he was sitting in front of. She crossed the room and Ron's eyes met hers he began to smile, she shook her head and mouthed the words 'No' before clasping her hand over her other best friend, Harrys' eyes.
"Guess Who?" she said, clearing her throat and attempting to make her voice seem different.
"Gee, I don't know, it just couldn't be my best friend Hermione who never shows her face around these parts anymore" he joked.
Hermione smiled, released her hands and jumped over the couch to take a seat.
"Come on you guys, its not like that at all, I've just been really busy, you know, finals and stuff."
Her chocolate brown eyes scanned the table in front of her, where a wizards' chess game was set up.
"Oh I see you guys have been preparing to"
"You know we don't do that stuff until the week before." Ron and Harry snickered.
"If you don't pass these tests you will not graduate do you want to be stuck here with the 6th years?" she questioned.
"Joking, Mione, we're joking"
"Well its not a joke. Anyways, Harry, I came to see if you have your notes from Potions last week, I seemed to have misplaced mine."
"Yeah sure, upstairs on my dresser, go on up and get them, you are Head Girl after all"
She smiled and thanked him then dashed up the stairs. She entered the boys dormitory happy to see there were no boys presently in there.
She located Harry's dresser only by the huge Quidditch trophy on it. It was his captain's trophy from when they had won the house cup the previous year. She found his notebook and flipped it open, smiling when she found what she was looking for. As she flipped the notebook closed a pink envelope slipped out. She bent down to pick it up, and noticed the girly writing in purple pen. She couldn't resist, she opened the envelope and unfolded the piece of parchment within. Her eyes scanned the short note.
Dear Harry,
Thank you so much for being here for me these last few weeks. I love you so very much. Same time, Same Place tonight okay?
Love, Emery.
"Oh No" Hermione said aloud as she read the note. 'Was Harry dating her cousin?' She shuddered at the thought.
Hermione replaced the letter in another notebook then rushed back down the stairs, mumbling a 'Thanks again' to Harry as she stepped quickly out of the porthole. She knew that if she had stayed she would have questioned Harry about it and she did not want him to know that she knew.
"What is Emery up to?" she questioned. Hermione headed back to her dormitory, stepping in only to find Ginny spread out on the couch reading a wizarding magazine. She grabbed her hand and lead her up the stairs to their dormitory. As Hermione shut the door behind them Ginny took a seat on her bed and gave Hermione a crazed look.
"What in the bloody hell has got you all worked up?"
"I think Harry is seeing Emery"
"Our Harry, seeing your snobby cousin?"
"Yes"
"Why do you say that?"
"Because" Hermione sighed and sat down "I found a letter on his dresser saying that she wanted to thank him for being there for her the last few weeks and that she loved him and stuff."
"But I haven't seem them together at all" Ginny stated.
"Have you been watching Harry?" Hermione teased, shoving her friend.
"No, I just haven't seen them together"
"Sure" Hermione smiled.
"Shut Up!"

The girls headed back down into the common room where Hermione was happy to see her favorite head of blonde hair. Draco's mind was currently in the clouds, he was trying to study but couldn't stay focused. He closed his eyes and laid his head back until her felt a familiar weight on his lap. He opened his eyes and smiled as her met a pair of chocolate brown ones.
"Hey you"
Hermione kissed him gently on the lips then pulled back and smiled.
"Hey you also"
"Before I forget" Draco eased her off his lap and grabbed an envelope off the table. "This came for you not to long ago"
Hermione sat back on the couch and opened the envelope, her eyes widened as she read it.
"Dumbledore wants to see me"
"The old kook probably wants to meddle in our business again" Draco muttered.
"Draco" Hermione muttered, playfully thumping him on the chest. "Ok I'll be back in a bit" She smiled and kissed him again.
"Make it quick" He called.
As Hermione made the trip to Dumbledore's office, she couldn't help but question what he could possibly want.
