What should I do? Hermione had a second to decide

Going with her instinct she moved towards him.

"Oh." a quiet voice came from behind them.

Whipping round, they saw Ginny staring at them, her mouth opened in surprise.

"Ginny! What-?" Hermione trailed off. It took a moment before Ginny recovered.

"I-I saw you going out here but I didn't realise that you weren't alone." her eyes dropped.

Draco and Hermione follow her gaze and realized they were still holding hands.

Letting go quickly, Hermione stood up and walked towards Ginny.

"Let's go." she said quietly. Nodding, Ginny went back through the window.

"Hermione, remember we've got to go and see McGonagall at 3." without looking back she replied,

"Ok, see you then." and then she disappeared, leaving a confused and hurt Draco behind.

****

"Ok you going to tell me what that was all about?" questioned Ginny as soon as the were out of earshot of Draco.

"There's nothing to tell, nothing happened." Hermione mumbled, not looking Ginny in the eye.

"Oh no of course not, you were only kissing him!" she yelped.

"Who were you kissing?" asked a voice from behind them. Looking round Hermione's heart fell.

"Er…" Ginny knew that she couldn't't say it was Draco, but nothing else came to mind. Looking at Ron she smiled and opened her mouth but was cut off by Hermione.

"No, not us, Ginny was just telling me what happened with one of her friends, that's what Ginny said to her." Hermione rushed, praying that it sounded convincing enough.

"Ok, I thought you were going to see McGonagall?" he carried on walking.

"Yeah later on." and the three of them continued to walk, although Ginny kept trying to make eye contact with Hermione.

"Ron, I need to talk to Hermione…alone."Ginny said with emphasis on alone. God he could be so dense, she thought to herself.

With a curious expression on his face Ron walked off as Ginny dragged Hermione to the toilets.

"Talk." Hermione sighed, truthfully she really didn't know what to say.

She had just kissed the boy whom had hated her - and made no attempt to hide the fact-since day one all those years ago. And she felt the same way

or so she thought

But the worrying thing was; it was the best kiss she had ever had, even if it only last a few seconds .

"I like him." she whispered.

"Oh."

"What should I do?"

"What ever you think is right." they were silent as Hermione thought carefully.

"I think that.. I think I better go and see McGonagall." she said and left.

"Now I've asked you two to come here because I have received a letter from the head of the Department of International Magical Cooperation. I know both of you have already decided what you are going to do after you leave, but I was told to give this to you."

As Professor McGonagall looked for the papers, Draco tried to catch Hermione's eye.

Failing he considered deliberately to knock something over just so she would look at him but before he could look around, McGonagall started talking again.

"Basically what the offer is a year to help out as assistances and then you can be officially part of the department. They deal with overseas ministries. I know this is last minuet but they wanted to try this out to see if employing pupils right after school would be best."

Draco took the papers and gave Hermione's hers.

Without looking, Hermione reached for her papers and she let out a small gasp when their fingers touched sending a electric shock through both of them.

Quickly composing herself, she pretended to read what professor McGonagall had given them.

"That's really it, if any of you have a question please come and see me." she said then dismissed them.

The walked along the empty corridors in silence.

"Hermione, please we need to talk." stopping she faced him. He was nervous she could tell, since he couldn't stop fidgeting.

"Ok, on you go." she said. Draco knew exactly what he want say, but the words wouldn't form.

Annoyed he began to pace back and forth. Suddenly he got an idea and with a slow grin, he took her hand.

And he kissed her. This time there was no waiting, no time to think and he put all his feeling into the kiss and hoped that she understood.

After what felt like an eternity, Hermione reluctantly pulled away.

"That was some talk." she giggled. Smiling down on her, Draco brushed a bit of hair from her face.

Looking round Hermione realised that a door had appeared from no where.

"Draco what floor are we on?" confused with the questioned Draco replied,

"7th , why?" Hermione's heart began to beat faster, this was the room of Requirement.

"Ah." Draco said catching on.

"Should we go in?" he asked nervously.

Smiling Hermione, didn't hesitate. Holding his hand she led him into the room.

With a laugh the door closed.

so how was that? the next chapter will be better i promise ( i hope)
