DISCLAIMER: You can tell from my writing I'm not J.K.R!!

A/N. THANK YOU ALL SOO MUCH FOR THE REVIEWS!!! Especially Obsessed.Otaku.of.America whose review reminded me I had the next chapter written but not up!! It's quite short though, so I apologise!!!

Something else: Malfoy and our Mione are head boy and head girl and share a dorm. I don't mean to be clichéd but that's the way I wrote this chapter a while ago, and who am I to deny all my wonderful surges of inspiration? Lol. Only kidding. I don't know why I wrote it that way, but I'm sure it'll come back to me!!!

Talking

The door to the head's rooms opened as Ginny uttered the password. She ran up the stairs to Hermione's quarters, before stopping to knock hesitantly.

"Come in." Hermione answered. Ginny burst in.

"Hi."

"Hi." Hermione smiled at Ginny's face. Now that the 'formalities' were officially out of the way, Ginny eagerly bound unto Hermione's bed.

"Well?"

"Well what?"

"Did you kiss him? Why? Do you totally have a crush on him? What's the tension like living together up here? What about Ron? How long have you liked Malfoy? How -"

"Okay, okay, enough!" Hermione laughed. "Right…" She took a deep breath. "No, I don't fancy Draco Ferret Malfoy. No, I have not. No, I will not. And yes, I did kiss him. But not for the reasons you think."

"Well why did you blooming kiss him then?" Ginny exploded.

"Change of tactics." Hermione smirked.

"Change of tacti-are you blooming mad?"

"You must admit it worked. Malfoy expected me to slap him and hex him into oblivion, then he could come back, smirk and hex me back. And really, today I couldn't be bothered with all that shindig. I just wanted him to shut up. And what I done was the best way." Hermione casually stated.

"Best way?? You had to kiss him!!!"

"Oh, it's amazing the things I would do for a piece of quiet." Grinned Hermione.

"All I can say is that you have gone mad."

Hermione raised an eyebrow.

"Come on, let's go for a walk, and for goodness sake act normal or I'm going to have to lock you up in one of those places you were telling me about – what is it again? – emm – lunny cins?"

"Loony bins." Mione sung, "And don't you dare!"

A/N: Thank you for reading and I apologise again for the shortness. Please review though; I would really appreciate it!!
