Chapter 7: A little Romantic Moment

As the foursome-comprising of Harry, Ginny, Ron, and Hermione- went down to the Hall for breakfast, there was a buzz of excitement everywhere! As they walked down, they could hear pieces of conversation drifting about.

"Did you hear about the masquerade? I heard…'"

"We can't even see who we are dancing with, and we have to wear masks!"

"I heard that we have to bring a date still. I am going to ask Justin! "

"Hey, at midnight, we have to take off our masks and reveal our dates to the whole world, and we can't even tell anybody who our partner is until the dance!"

"Like I can keep quiet until then!"

They were indeed interested in the conversations, and kept on eavesdropping. "A masquerade, huh? That's cool," Ginny said.

"Yeah, especially the part where no one knows who our partner is," Hermione said. She already knew who she was going to invite. Draco.

Finally. No restrictions. No one will know. Finally.

Draco walked down the Hall, where the atmosphere was thick with excitement. But he didn't care. All he could think about was Hermione, Hermione, Hermione. He could only think about the great time they had together, only to be disturbed by her friends, Harry Potter, and the Weasels. He realised that they could have been found out, that they had a relationship. Thank god he was able to cover up, or else.

He took a seat at his table, and was just about to dig in, when Dumbledore entered the hall. There was silence everywhere, as Dumbledore stood up to address the students.

"A very good morning, students of Hogwarts. I am very sure that you all have been informed of the masquerade ball that will be taking place this Friday, "he boomed, looking at everyone.

A masquerade ball? Wha-what's going on? He looked around in confusion, as everybody nodded their heads in agreement. Even Hermione was nodding her head vigorously. Draco smiled. She looked beautiful-as usual. Dumbledore continued.

"This masquerade is very special, however. No one is to know of your date, only you. Your date will only be revealed at midnight, and this is for a very special reason, which you will come to know soon. Further details will be posted in your dormitories. Remember, you are to come with a date. Thank you, and have a good breakfast."

Draco faced his plate, which was now laden with food. He smiled to himself. Hermione. Yes, he was sure. It was going to be her. He was going to go to the ball with her-only her. Hermione.

As Hermione ate her food, she suddenly turned around, and looked at Draco, smiling.

Draco smiled back at her. Go with me, he mouthed.

Hermione giggled softly. We'll see, she mouthed back, and turned back, tossing her curls even before Draco could reply, leaving him stunned and bewildered.

AsHermione ate and talked with Ginny, Ginny suddenly whispered in her ear," I like Harry."

Hermione was taken aback and surprised." You do?" she asked incredulously. Ginny blushed and stared at her food as she nodded. Hermione laughed. "Well, then ask him to the dance!" she whispered back.

"I'm too shy! I want to, but I-I don-don't know how to! You've got to help me, Herm!"

Hermione chuckled. "Don't worry, leave it to me. I will work something out!" she said, as Ginny silently thanked her profusely.

Hermione smiled to herself. First, Draco was asking her on a date. Next, Ginny was seeking her help to match make her with Harry. Could this day get any better?

She was about to find out.

Once they had eaten a good breakfast, the foursome was on their way back to the dormitory to grab their books. Just as Hermione was about to enter the dormitory, she felt somebody grab her waist and pull her behind a pillar. She tried to scream, but a hand clamped over her mouth. She struggled, and suddenly, she spun around. Draco. He tucked a strand of her hair behind her ear, and then kissed her softly, but passionately. She kissed him back, stroking his hair, as he hugged her waist. He then pulled back, licking his lips.

"Hope that made you decide whether you wanted to go with me to-"

Hermione put her finger to his lips.

"Say no more. I will."
