Chapter 4: Book Store

The next day at the burrow could be described in one word: depressing.

Hermione rarely talked and when she did she seemed emotionless and indifferent.

The day before they had to go back to school, Hermione woke up about nine. She was sitting in bed Ginny walked in. her hair wet telling Hermione she just got out of the shower.

"Well good morning sleepy head," Ginny said with a smile on her face. "We're going to Diagon alley today. So go take a shower and get ready."

"Um Gin, I don't have any clothes"

"Oh, you can barrow some of mine."

"Okay when are we leaving?"

"I have to get the boys up and when they are ready we will leave. But I'm giving you time to get in the shower before I wake them up. So go! I'll lay some clothes out for you." Ginny told her excitedly.

Hermione walked to the bathroom. When she got there she locked the door and turned on the shower. Once the shower had been running for a few seconds Hermione broke down in tears. Half way through her shower she finally stopped crying. She stepped out of the shower wrapped a big fluffy towel around her body and left the bathroom. She walked quickly down the hall so no one would see her in only a towel. When she was in Ginny's room she shut the door and looked to her bed to see what Ginny had laid out for her.

Ginny had set out a pair of light skinny jeans, a purple tank top, and purple ballet flats.

Hermione put on the clothes and went down stairs. When she got there she realized she was the last one there. Harry, Ron, and Ginny were sitting at the breakfast table. Ginny was wearing a similar outfit as Hermione, but with dark skinny jeans, a green tank top and green flats. Ron and Harry were both wearing jeans, quidditch t-shirts and tennis shoes.

She looked at Harry and Ron, "how did you two get ready so fast?" she asked them.

"Oh we took showers last night so we could be ready faster," Ron replied with a smile.

"Okay, is everyone ready then?" Hermione asked.

"Don't you want to eat first 'Mione'?" Harry asked/

"No thanks I'm really not hungry."

"Okay we can leave then." Ron said looking concerned. He had noticed that Hermione had barely eaten anything since she had been at the burrow.

Ron, Harry, Hermione, and Ginny all went to the floo and flooed to Diagon Alley.

"So you guys, where should we go first?" Ginny asked.

"Um well Hermione why don't you choose," Ron suggested.

"I don't care you guys, you just lead the way and I'll follow."

"Okay, um book store?" Harry asked

Ginny and Ron agreed hoping that the book store would cheer Hermione up.

"Okay lets go to the seventh year section to get our books, Gin you can go to the sixth year section," Ron said.

"I already have my books." Hermione said. Harry and Ron turned and looked at her. "I got them the day that…..um…. you know." She explained not really wanting to thing about her parents.

"Oh yeah, well Harry and I will go get our books and you can look around." Ron said.

"Okay"

Ron and Harry walked off towards the student section of the book store while Hermione went up the stairs to look at books. She had been looking around for about ten minutes when she stumbled on a book titled The Horrors of the Magical World. She remembered in second year when her parents had first come to the magical world, her dad had been looking around and saw this book. He turned and looked at her with this horrified/funny look that had her laughing so much her sides had hurt. Seeing the book now made her break down in tears.

Draco felt a pull towards the book store. He decided to follow his instincts and went into the store. He walked into the store up the stairs and into the secluded part of the second story. Then he saw her Hermione Granger, his mate, sitting holding a book to her chest, head down and crying.

He was too much a coward to face her now, so he went to turn but before he could she had looked up and spotted him.

"What are you doing here Malfoy? Come to make fun of the crying Mudblood?" she asked harshly.

"No Granger, I was just looking for a book,"

Oh Merlin she's so beautiful. He thought

"Oh whatever Malfoy, but now that you've seen 'the mudblood' crying you're going to go tell all your little slytherin friends what a weakling she is"

She had walked up to where she was now only two steps away from him. He closed the distance between them and had her body pinned against the bookshelf by his. His hands were by her head blocking her in. He could feel her breath against his lips and the veelainside him was going crazy. This was the closest he had been to her since his transformation. He leaned his head down and kissed her. For the first five seconds Hermione was in shock. Then she was pushing Draco trying to get him off her. She wasn't strong enough and her just keep kissing her.

"Mione?" Draco heard Potter's voice. This brought him back to reality and he stepped away from Hermione.

"What the hell was that Malfoy," Hermione spat at him.

Before he could answer Potter came into view.

"There you are Mione we're ready whenev……….." that's when he realized Draco was there. "WHAT ARE YOU DOING MALFOY?"

"Nothing Potter, just looking for a book," Draco sneered

"Whatever come on Hermione, are you ready."
"Yeah Harry, lets go."

She walked by Draco not wanting to look at him after what had just happened. Then she left with Harry, Ron, and Ginny, all the while thinking about Malfoy.

So what did you think? I got a little bored and decided to put a little Draco and Hermione in this chapter so tell me what you think. Oh and if Draco seems a little OC I'm going to be fixing that so if you don't like it don't worry he's going to change a little in his personality.
