AN: chapter six! This chapter has quite a bit of content concerning both harry/Hermione and draco/luna… thanks for the reviews! You know who you are :D

Last chapter:"I'm sorry you didn't go to far…" he stiffened under her fingertips and she bit her tongue to stop herself from speaking.

"what did you say 'mione?" he sounded wary and hermione released her hold of him. He turned and stared at her, his eyes dark with passion. Hermione gulped that was not meant to come out.

"Nothing harry… not- harry what are you doing?" she questioned as he crawled towards her staring at her curiously.

"Are you sorry I didn't ravish you? Didn't take you as my own and make you cry out my name." Hermione looked away from his prying eyes, her back against the headboard. She felt his hot breath on her face and she closed her eyes. "Look at me Hermione." He ordered and Hermione shivered, the tone in his voice was not threatening, but she still felt the need to obey.

She turned and he kissed her. It was a slow yet passionate kiss in which Hermione felt as if Harry was pouring his entire soul into it. She took a moment to respond and recover from the shock of his forwardness before she returned the kiss, stronger than his.

He moaned when she nibbled on his bottom lip tenderly and he licked her bottom lip waiting to be allowed entrance. She opened her mouth and let out a moan when his tongue entered her mouth, toying with her own.

She felt his hands on her hips holding her in place. He was gently massaging her thighs now, and Hermione quivered at the sensation. Hermione loved the taste of him, his kiss was passionate, the feeling of them both sending each other emotional messages. Then Hermione realised it. Harry potter was not just her friend anymore.

And then the image of one persons face flashed before her eyes: Ginny smiling down at her engagement ring.

Hermione pushed on his chest to free herself and he immediately sensing her distress pulled away onto his haunches. Hermione smiled smally and placed a few fingers to her lips.

"Harry what was that?" Hermione asked shyly and Harry frowned.

"I… im sorry… I couldn't help myself anymore… it's been so hard..." He said earnestly and Hermione bit her bottom lip. Ginny's face once more appeared before her eyes and she felt a tear roll down her cheek.

"What about Ginny?" she mumbled and he closed his eyes in pain.

"I don't love Ginny… I only asked her because you told me too." He whispered and Hermione let out a whimper.

"I'm so sorry… if I had known… that you didn't love her… I wouldn't have suggested… put you through so much pain. Forgive me Harry." She felt her voice failing and her heart breaking in two for the man before her.

"Hermione… I have a situation… to put to you… say I was in love with someone else… someone beautiful… a friend…. Should I tell her 'I love you' or what?" Harry asked and Hermione sensed his distress, confusion.

"If I was this woman you love.. I would not want to be the 'other' woman, I would not give them a second glance because they are betrothed to someone else… you made a choice… you would have to end any relationship you have before.. anything between you and this woman can occur." Hermione struggled to say it… she wondered if she were the other woman, the one he loved, she believed he did, but perhaps kissing her was just a way to get some release. Hermione hoped he loved her, if he did she was breaking her own heart by giving that advice.

"Okay… I'm going to try… and end it with Ginny, it's not right for either of us." Harry stated and he stood magicking all of his clothes to his body, except for the undershirt that Hermione still wore. "I… Hermione… 'mione…" he said tenderly smiling at her. "You truly are the most beautiful witch I have ever met." Harry stated and then he left apparating on the spot.

Draco entered the leaky cauldron annoyed. If my assistant had of gone to diagon alley like I had told him too and had gotten the paperwork needed from Ollivanders I wouldn't need to do this! Draco sighed and nodded to Tom the bar tender.

He was walking briskly through the bar when long blonde hair caught his eye. He turned and recognised Luna sitting on her own, a quibbler in front of her. Luna was now the editor of the quibbler, now as sought after as the daily prophet. Draco smiled; Luna was quite well off now, more so than she had been when her father was alive.

She looked smart in her tight knee length black skirt and white blouse. She had high heels on and looked as if she had just come from an important interview, she always dressed similar to that for interviews. She sipped her butterbeer thoughtfully, mulling over the contents of one of her reports.

Draco straightened his button up shirt and walked forward, nervously flattening his already flattened hair. He leant over her shoulder, without her knowledge and read the headline 'potter engaged!'.

"Draco I know you are standing there so you might as well sit." Luna murmured not glancing up and Draco's jaw dropped in shock.

"How did you know?" he asked in disbelief as he took the seat beside her. She looked up and smiled at him warmly, reaching out and messing up his hair.

"You know Draco I don't like your hair flat, why do you always make it flat?"

"Well… if it wasn't flat, you wouldn't have an excuse to touch me." Draco said blushing slightly what are you doing! Draco Malfoy does not blush… well to anyone else that is. Ok I will make this one exception. Luna bit her lip her hand moving down from his hair to stroke his cheek fondly.

"I don't need an excuse to touch you." Luna whispered and Draco smiled smally. She dropped her hand and Draco looked at her curiously. Does she like me as much as I love her? Wait… love … Draco Malfoy does not love! I don't know what love is…

"Well I know my looks are irresistible." He teased and Luna rolled her eyes smiling at him. Draco felt he could fall into her large dreamy blue eyes. They seemed to sparkle when she smiled and he adored her for it. "So what are we up to?" he asked and Luna sighed frustrated, a rare event.

"Ginny is making me write this stupid article about her and Harry, I know it will sell magazines but it makes no sense to fill it with lies. The prophet isn't doing a piece because they are afraid to offend Harry." At this she rolled her eyes and Draco scanned the highly edited, by Ginny Weasley, article and frowned at the added 'perfect couple', 'true love' and 'beautiful engagement'. He snorted and Luna nodded

"My thoughts exactly!" she exclaimed and Draco chuckled and she shot him a fake glare, he could tell it was fake by the way her lips were twitching in a hidden smile.

"Well I think you should run what you know to be true, be scandalous, be crazy, what's the quibbler for?" he proclaimed and Luna suddenly smiled tearing the article up in her hands.

"I think I will run it in a few days, get the red head a bit hot under the collar." She thought evily and Draco smirked.

"Sure you haven't got any Slytherin in you?" he teased and Luna patted him on the thigh twice and then let her hand rest there, much too both their surprises. The smile faded into a curious look as they both looked down to her hand which was resting on his thigh. He looked up and caught her staring at him.

She bit her lip and he felt her squeeze his thigh gently a shy smile on her face. Draco loved when she bit her lip, it was so innocent. He reached out and cupped one side of her face. Stroking her cheek tenderly. He swallowed and cursed himself inwardly for being so nervous.

"Luna…. I need to tell you something… I really like you… a lot… I think… I may be falling in love with you." he swallowed again when she wet her lips. She met his gaze and smiled smally.

"I think… we are both suffering from bally sprouts." She whispered and Draco chuckled in disbelief.

"I don't know what that means."

"It means I love you." Draco smiled broadly and felt his heart thump hard in his chest. He leaned forward and whispered.

"I love you so much." He then touched his lips gently to hers and felt light headed; her kiss was breath takingly sweet. She let him slowly deepen the kiss, but he didn't move much further into it, deciding to break away and leave their first kiss as a sweet one.

"Bally sprouts." Draco said and chuckled making Luna smile and nod.

Ginny woke up startled. The dark man next to her groaned and sat up next to her.
