Hey everyone been a while since I updated here but I have been crazy with exams and such so I thought I would do a quick one now, even I will admit this isn't my best but I still wanted to share it with you guys and anyone one who wants to read it : ) anywho thank you for reading and I'd love to know what you think, much love :)

Summary: Hermione is going to prove much to the Slytherin princes delight that she can be beautiful and what better place than the catwalk held in the Room of Requirement. But what if Draco wants to see the girl walking to 'Sexy back'?

Sexy back.

"Come on Hermione it will be fun!" Ginny pleaded.

"No it won't. You guys would have fun and I would watch because Lavender 'isn't going to waste times and resources on a lost cause'." Hermione quoted in a high pitched voice, flicking her hair over her shoulder.

"Wow that's impressive Granger, and I thought those cosmetic spells only affected you body, not your brains." Draco Malfoy smirked leaning against the opposite wall. Hermione turned around knowing who it was before she saw his face.

"Well, Malfoy, unlike the...girls, if you can call them that, I have seen you with before I do not need cosmetic spells because I have enough self respect not to change my body and enough respect not to throw myself at you." Hermione said pushing her chest out slightly glad she had left her school jumper at the dorm. Everyone had pretty much decided to forget what happened in the war and when they returned to school Draco had apologised for his role in the war and what his aunt did to her. She forgave him knowing he wasn't willingly a death eater. The two of them still liked to banter. They enjoyed having an intellectual equal to banter with, but nowadays there wasn't the hostility and the anger had faded so it was more teasing.

"Well Granger, you may respect your body, but you don't know how to use it. I can help you appreciate your body." Draco sidled up towards Hermione. she put her hands on her hips and Draco came and stood directly in front of Hermione.

"Some guys fancy the you look you have going but I'd like to see you in something other than the other than the generic school girl look." He kissed her cheek and waltzed off in the other direction when he was around the corner Ginny spoke again.

"Come on Hermione it will be fun and he will never expect!"

"Gin..."

"Please! I won't let you near Lavender! I'll do your make-up and hair since I'm not doing it." Ginny begged.

"Fine." She gave in to Ginny's puppy dog eyes. "But, only if I don't look like a slut, Lavender's got that covered." Ginny nodded. "AND I will not be wearing make-up, and my hair will be down." Ginny rolled her eyes but nodded.

"Oh we are going to have so much fun! You will look divine! Draco won't know what hit him!" She squealed as she pulled a sighing Hermione behind her.

It had been a tradition that for the past two years on the evening of Blaise Zabini, Gregory Goyle and Theodore Nott's birthdays all the Slytherin boys would gather in the Room of Requirement for a catwalk. Any girl in their year could dress up and walk down the catwalk. They would all wear masks so you couldn't see who they were or what house they were in. It was an unspoken agreement that no-one would speak of those nights after everyone went back to their dorm. This year would be different. One person wouldn't be able to let it go.

"Ginny, I don't know about this, he won't recognize me." Hermione said nervously.

"Oh Hermione of course he will! How could he not! You look stunning!" Ginny cooed as she waved her wand over Hermione's hair to keep it in place. The music started and Pansy Parkinson's vice rang out throughout the Room of Requirement.

"Hello gentlemen. As you all well know we are here for one Blaise Zabini's 18th birthday!" A cheer rang out throughout the Room of Requirement. People applauded and hooted

"And we thought we'd give him a treat. Now as always three people chosen by the birthday boy get to take a chosen girl into a room and reveal who she is." Wolf whistles echoed in the room. Pansy smiled and continued in her sing song voice. "But boys, there is a difference," ooohs rippled through the air. "I know, this year," Pansy said waking up and down the catwalk. "There will be no room. In the good spirit of house unity our lovely ladies don't mind being unveiled out in the open." Another chorus of ooohs rang out leading Pansy to smile. "So now we are all clear on what's going down let's get on with the show." Pansy smiled and walked down the catwalk as a beat slowly started.

"Ohhh Hermione, this is your song!" Ginny squealed backstage.

"WHAT? I'M FIRST?" Hermione cried.

"Oh yeah, did I forget to tell you that? Oh well too late now!" Ginny smiled as she pushed Hermione through the curtain. She almost ran back behind it again as she saw all the hooting faces. They went wild when they saw Hermione appear. Draco sat stunned. Hermione scanned the room for Draco and when she saw him the whole room melted away. He was sitting with eyes wide and jaw dropped. This made Hermione smile as she began to walk down the catwalk to the beat of 'sexy back' by Justin Timberlake. She couldn't focus on anyone other than Draco as she walked down. Draco couldn't take his eyes off the girl that was driving all the boys in the room wild. She wore a two piece skirt that had a solid black tight skirt underneath that came mid-thigh, it was overlaid by a floaty opaque skirt that was level with the black one underneath at the front but it cascaded down to her ankles at the back. Her top was deep blue almost corset like (without the laces) with a sweetheart neckline that showed the top of her breasts and only a slight sing of cleavage. The straps went straight over her shoulders. Her deep chocolate curly hair fell in large ringlets down her back. Her mask had large eye holes, showing her whiskey eyes which bore no make-up per her request, but thick dark eyelashes. He saw all the boys staring at her but not in the same way he was and she was not looking back. He leant over to Zabini and whispered.

"This one's mine."

"That's fine, brunettes aren't my type." Blaise replied shaking his hand. The girl approached the end of the catwalk and hopped of it effortlessly, due to her being barefoot. She walked directly to Draco and leant over his chair. She planted a solid kiss on his lips and bit his lower lip.

"I'm bringing sexy back." She whispered in his ear before hopping back up and disappearing.

For the rest of the evening Draco couldn't take his mind off the girl with the whiskey eyes. Girls came up to him and danced trying to get his attention. He had never liked these things especially this year but he had been dragged here by Blaise after he guilt's tripped him. He felt like a butcher whenever he was made to come. Girls trying to impress him the most to make him choose them. He never liked that, he never wanted the girl to persuade him to like her he wanted to choose the girl he liked. That is what he did. What he'd done. Finally Pansy appeared to signal the end of the parade.

"So gentlemen, did we enjoy the show?" She asked cheerily. Loud cheers rang out and hoots answering her question.

"Well then let's get on with it." After her last word rang out the girls emerged and formed a line behind her. Draco's eyes immediately found the one he sought after watched as she walked out watching him the whole time. As she stood in the line she was significantly shorter than the rest of the girls due to the fact that her feet were bare and not adorned with stripper heals. Draco zoned out as the other guys chose their girls (he found out later that Blaise chose Susan bones, Goyle chose a fellow Slytherin and Theo blew off the girls in the parade and headed straight for his girlfriend Pansy) as all e could see was her. It was his turn at last and without even hesitating he walked directly to her and didn't take his eyes off her. He offered his hand, she took it and he helped her step down. Once she was on the floor Draco removed her mask and before it even fell to the floor Draco covered his lips with his. She responded without thinking and threw her arms around his neck. If either of them was not totally focused on the other they would be able to hear the almighty cheers ringing throughout the Room of Requirement. She pulled away and looked around.

"So I don't know how to use my body, Draco?" She raised an eyebrow. Draco gently lifted her by the waist and held her against his chest. she wrapped her legs around his hips, her long skirt flowing down.

"Because from the looks I got guys seem to like my look." She smirked. one arm around her neck and the other flat against his shoulder. Draco looked around and saw the many guys leering at her. He carried her over to his chair and draped his suit jacket over her shoulders effectively covering her from the leering eyes.

"I was wrong, you certainly do know how to look good I always knew that. But I want you covered up from now on, only I can see you like this, Hermione." Draco said giving his girlfriend another kiss. Hermione gently bit his bottom lip and pulled away.

"Can you take me out of here now?" Hermione asked, Draco kissed her again and smiled.

"It would be my pleasure." Hermione kissed his cheek and nuzzled into his neck as he carried her out whispering how beautiful she was.
