DISCLAIMER: I Do not own Harry Potter, JK Rowling does. I called her and asked if I could have it, but I knew got a return call, wonder what?

Chapter 6: Confessions of Love

Hermione left the library on time. She headed for the great hall and sat down a few minutes later when breakfast was in full swing. She noticed that Harry and Ron were no where to be found. She heard the fluttering of wings, she looked up and saw Hedwig, Harry's owl swoop down in front of her and dropped 2 envelopes in front of her, both with her name on it. She opened one.

Hermione,

I'm Sorry.

Ronald

Hermione smiled to her self. She knew how much it meant to Ron, and how hard it was for him to apologize. She looked at the second enveloped and opened it.

Mimi, (Harry's nickname for her)

Ron and I talked it over, he understands that we did not do this on purpose. I told him how I feel about you. He understands and apologizes. You know I have never felt this way before Hermione. I think I am in love with you. You do not have to respond yet. I will let you process your feelings and I will come to your room after dinner.

I love you,

Harry

Hermione re-read the letter countless time. Harry loved her? She, for the first time in her life was speechless. She hadn't realized that she was walking until she wound up in her common room and ended up sitting on the couch. She began to cry. She did not know if she loved Harry. They had only been dating for twenty-four hours. Hermione was so lost in her thoughts, she did not hear Malfoy enter the room.

Why is she crying? Draco asked him self. No, I do not care! He reminded him self. He looked over and her and noticed that she as a letter in her hands. She wasn't paying attention, so he ripped the letter out of her hands and began to read. By the time she figured out what was going on he had finished the letter.

"Malfoy give that back!" She demanded.

"Too late Mudblood, so the golden trio is back together, how sweet! And Potter loves the Mudblood, how touching!" He said in a sick sweet voice.

Hermione tried to stop her self, but with no success, she began to cry again.

"What do you know abut love Malfoy? You father was a sadistic son of a bitch. And you are a perfect carbon copy of him. I may not know if I love Harry, but at least I cam capable of love. You know, for a brief moment on the train I thought you had changed. I guess I was wrong. You have always been, and will always be Lucius Malfoy incarnate. "She screamed. She did not give him a chance to respond she stomped to her room and slammed the door.

Not more than two seconds later Draco bust in.

"Your wrong! I am nothing like that arsehole, would that bastard have done this?" he said as he brought his lips down on Hermione and kissed her with more passion than she had ever felt before.

Hermione felt fireworks shoot through her. She was feeling strange things in her lower abdominal region. She began to kiss him back. Surprised by this he deepened the kiss. Hermione moaned into his mouth. This shocked Draco out of his daze and he stepped back from Hermione.

"Don't ever say I am my father, you honestly think blood matters to me? You think I want to be the next Dark Lord? Well news flash, I don't! And don't you ever forget that!" Draco yelled as he ran back to his room.

Hermione stood there dumb founded. She kissed Draco Malfoy. Oh no Harry! I cheated on Harry with Malfoy! She yelled at her self. She had to think, why did she feel excitement when she kissed Malfoy. Why didn't she feel that way when she kissed Harry. She would have to tell Harry. NO! It was a one time thing. She likes Harry she would just forget about Malfoy.

Meanwhile in Draco's room, he was pacing.

Why did I just kiss her, and more importantly, why did I like it? He asked him self. He had to admit that was the best kiss he ever had. No, she is a prissy know-it-all. She just happens to be the best kisser he had come across. I haven't been laid in months anything would be good right now. Draco was exhausted he collapsed on he bed and feel into a fitful sleep.

Hermione felt dirty, she had cheated on her first real boyfriend. She needed to shower. She hurriedly got in the shower and scrubbed her self until she was bright red. She sighed and began to sing.

Draco's dream was a normal one. He was walking though his Manor when he heard her singing.

When I fall In love

It Will be Forever

Or I'll Never Fall In Love

He started running towards the voice.

In a restless world

Love has ended

before it's begun

And too many

moon light kisses

Seem to cool in the warmth of the sun

Draco frantically opened doors looking for her.

When I Give My Heart

It Will be Completely

Or I'll Never Give My Heart

The Library, she's in the Library. Draco sprinted towards the large room.

And the moment I feel that you can feel that way too

Is when I fall in love you with

Draco swung the door open and there stood the woman, her back was facing him. She was a little clearer this time. He noticed he beautiful curly chestnut hair, he wanted to run his fingers through it. Draco was suddenly awoken by some one yelling.

"That's it!" Hermione screamed giddily.

Draco was roused by Hermione's voice in the bathroom. "Pipe down in there Granger." He said still half asleep.

"Oh go throw your self off a bridge Malfoy!" Their kiss forgotten as Hermione retreated to her room to formulate her plan. She sat down and began to think. She would simply tell Harry that she loved him. Then she would make her self fall in love with him. He was Harry after all, she could see her self loving him. She grabbed some parchment and began to write a note.

Harry,

I know we are not supposed to be for another nine hours, but I can not wait. Please meet me in the Astronomy Tower ASAP

Hermione

Quickly Hermione got dressed. And ran into the Great Hall, up to a first year Gryffindor.

"You are Edward Singleton aren't you?"

The terrified looking first year nodded and said, "Yes Miss Granger."

"Good, can you take this note to Harry Potter in the Common Room?" She said

"You want me to talk to Harry Potter?" the boys eyes grew wide.

"Yes, he is my boyfriend, please I need this favor." She said with a little smile

"Ok, for you Miss Granger, I will"

"Thanks Edward," She said as he ran off and Hermione made her way to the Tower.
