-Hermione POV-

I followed the Professor out of the Great Hall and into some winding corridors, full of students milling around, that all seemed to be wearing blue ties. "As you can see, your dorm is very close to Ravenclaw's. Do not abuse that privilege." She explained sternly. Eventually we reached a small portrait of a giggling mermaid. "This is your dorm; I shall explain more in a moment, we don't want anyone eavesdropping. But first, choose your password." I turned to Draco and began discussing together in low tones. We both said simultaneously:

"Stunning!" We said smiling at each other.

"May I ask why you chose that particular password?"

"It is what we consider each other Professor" I mumbled

"I am Hermione's mate, Professor." Draco explained when she looked confused.

"Ah, well, did you hear that Loretta? Good, I am sure Filius gave you a lecture on all the importance of veela mate's etcetera?" She spoke whispered, noticing several packs of students passing through.

"Yes Professor." I said, finally finding my voice.

"Good, now follow me." She led us into a high ceilinged room, filled with elegant black furniture. "This is your common room, this is where you may reside during free time, and there is also a kitchenette, two bedrooms, a bathroom and a small library. Here are your head books, here you must write every punishment you give out, to whom, what house they are in, and what year they are in. There is a section at the back where you can write your room requirements. These rooms are enchanted to take form of whatever decorations you wish, on the joint rooms you must decide together. There are several different forms that can be duplicated to fill out to change each room to your preferences. When you are done simply tap the page and say 'Locomotor Revelius' In the cupboard over there are spare quills and parchment, please carry some around for forgetful students." She picked up two black leather gold embossed books containing smooth, creamy parchment. "What am I forgetting? Oh yes, you have your own personal house elf. She is not for use of frivolous, personal needs. Abby!" With a small pop a small house elf appeared. She wore a sunny, yellow dress that went with her big, brown eyes. I sighed, I would never get S.P.E.W sorted at this rate.

"Hello Misses and Master, what may Abby do for you?" She bowed so low her long nose almost touched the plush carpet.

"Please Abby, you don't need to bow, we aren't gods, from now on, please call us Hermione and Draco. You have every right to do what you wish." Draco cut in before I could object. I smiled at him gratefully; I really admired people who stood up for helpless animals. It made my heart swell knowing my boyfriend wasn't a heartless bastard.

"Thank you Mr Malfoy, Abby these are just your new, how to put it, friends?" She said kindly.

"Okay, I is going now, bye bye!" She murmured, with a large pop she disappeared.

"Now, I also will be going now, goodbye Miss Granger and Mr Malfoy." Professor McGonagall practically ran out of the portrait. Draco smirked,

"Now why was our usually so stout professor in such a hurry to get out?" He moved closer to me, his eyes darkening to a storm cloud. I moved even closer, enjoying the incredible feeling that passed through me.

"Maybe it was because I can barely keep my hands of you?" I said cocking my head to one side, as if deep in thought.

"Now, wouldn't that be such a tragedy?" I moved and closed the distance. Our lips smashed together in a fury of heat and passion. I always wondered what it felt like to run my hands through Draco Malfoy's hair. Now I was doing it right now. It was silky smooth to the touch. His hands started to roam around my waist, desperately trying to survive for more than a minute on one breath of air. We collapsed onto the satin sofa. "Way to christen the new dorm." Draco sounded impressed.

"Now, we've got that out the way, let's design dorms!" I said eagerly. I picked up my head book and flipped it to the back. Inside were the forms. I ran over to the portrait where my bag lay, forgotten. Out came a beautiful black feather quill, it had pretty white swirls imprinted on to it; it was also one of my favourites. Then out came a vial of dark purple ink. As I scrambled over to Draco who was smiling amusedly I noticed something, his eyes had changed colour. Instead of his usual storm clouds they had turned slightly blue, no-one else would've noticed it, but I did. I pulled a form towards me. "Let's start with the room we're in. So what do you feel like?" I asked conversationally.

"How about I surprise you?" He whispered, taking the quill and form out of my hands slowly.

"That sounds good to me." I closed my eyes and listened to Draco's steady breathing. After around ten minutes he said he had finished. I opened my eyes to a virtual black and white movie. Everything was a classy shade of the spectrum. The sofas alternated between black leather and white suede. The carpet was black and fluffy. Vases and ornaments lay scattered about, on tables and window sills. The windows were large and elegantly fitted. The lighting was a black swirl slowly fading to white, like a snake across the ceiling. The walls were painted white. This was too perfect. I didn't say anything, instead I kissed him. "How did you do this you, you amazing person?" I mumbled into his chest.

"I call it 'magic' my dear lady." He said sarcastically.

"Ha, very funny, bow, let me do the library! You stay in here and I'll get you when I'm done okay?" I commanded.

"Okay, I'll be waiting love!" He called as I took a door, holding my quill and another form. It was the library and it was beautiful, with just a few tweaks and it could be perfect. I scribbled onto the form my wishes and said the incantation. It immediately began morphing into my preferable library. When it had finished it was lined in cedar bookshelves, it had a light, wooden floor and comfortable brown sofas with another cedar table in the centre. I called Draco. He came running in and stopped in his tracks when he took a proper look at the place. "Wow, this is amazing, I took a quick look at the bathroom and its fine, let's meet up in a bit and show each other our finished bedrooms okay?" He said whilst hugging me incredibly tightly.

"No offence Draco, but I can breathe!" I choked. After he released me apologetically I said "That sounds like a great idea Draco, see you!" I regained my composure and pecked him on the cheek. Two spiral staircases stood in front of me when I exited the room. "Which one do you want either left or right?" I asked

"Left one please, I don't know why." He said with conviction in his voice.

"Sure." I climbed up the right staircase holding my school bag in my hand. It was immediately dropped when I saw the sheer size of my room. It was huge. I leant on a table and wrote some things down. After the morphing process had finished I looked around and smiled in satisfaction. Draco was going to love it. Down the stairs I went. Draco was standing at the bottom, looking apprehensive. "I want to see yours first Draco." I smiled. The look vanished. He led me up the stairs and through a door. Inside was a stylish dark brown and light brown colour scheme. A four poster bed and several other manly possessions littered the room. I could just see cracks of light peeking through the cream blinds. "It's very… you Drake" I murmured.

"Good, now show me yours!" He said excitedly. I led him down his stairs, up mine and just as I opened my door I put my hands over his eyes. Then I took them off. My room was a woodland wonder land. The carpet was a soft, springy moss. There didn't appear to be any walls. Trees lined the room boundaries instead. The night sky twinkled above us. A vine covered swing seemed to materialise out of nowhere. My four posters was a dark oak concoction with several flowering creepers crawling up the poles. The curtains itself were the softest sparkling gossamer. Dark, wooden tables were spread around. Everything was covered in foliage or greenery. It was lit by sparkling multi coloured lights that seemed to float by themselves. Several hundred wild plants thrived here as well. Many such as: orchids, carnations, lilies, roses and ivy just to name a few. My bedroom seemed to go on forever. It was perfect. Anyway Draco seemed to think so.
