Hermione awoke with a massive headache. She couldn't remember much of the night before…except…Malfoy! She sat straight up on the couch.Malfoy himself had been nice to her! He even said she was hot! What was the world coming to? And where was everybody anyway? She looked around the common room to find that no one was even around…But, wait, this wasn't the Gryffindor common room…It was….Slytherins!!
"Are you finally up, Hermione?" Ron said while coming through the door.
"Yes…But, Ron, Why the hell am I in the Slytherin common room? I don't understand…and why do I feel like I got ran over by a train?" She questioned while rubbing her head, trying to get her eyes to adjust to the light.
"That's because, Dear Granger, you fell asleep here last night and lost our bet!" Malfoy smirked as he came down from his dorm.
"What? A bet?? What are you talking about?" She suddenly jumped off of the couch, only to realize her legs weren't quite ready to be stood on. Flopping back to the couch, she just sat and sulked.
"You have to sleep with who ever keeps up with you the longest
for a week. Not sex…though I know you'll want it…Just in the same bed, for a week. And guess who the lucky guy is?" Malfoy explained as he plastered on the biggest smirk she had ever seen.
"Oh God…" She groaned. "Not you??"
"Don't sound so pleased!" He joked. "Come on, it won't be that bad…I'll be gentle, at first anyway." He whispered the last part in her ear, causing her to blush.
"Well…" She complained, trying to change the subject. "I guess I better go get rid of this hang over…What time is it anyway?"
"About 12." Ron answered.
"Oh God….Why can't I remember hardly anything about last night?" She began running around frantically looking for her shoes.
"Because Granger…" Malfoy begin while exposing her shoes from behind his back. "It took almost three bottles of Fire whiskey for the two of us to pass out."
"Damn!" Harry exclaimed as he entered the common room. "Draco, how about we go do some Quidditch practicing?"
"Sounds good." He smirked. "See you tonight." He directed to Hermione and left the room.

Hermione paced around her room, trying to get together enough clothes to sleep in for a week. She didn't want to wear the same things over each night…and the stuff she normally wore to bed was much to revealing for her to sleep in the same bed as Malfoy with. It was just short shorts and cami's…but she didn't think she'd be comfortable. So far, all she could find was a hideous nightgown her grandmother had bought her that went down to her ankles. You know what? Screw it. I'm gonna be comfortable in what I wear at least! And with that thought, she began packing her shorts and cami's.

Draco went around the room, smoothing the sheets and looking at himself in the mirror. He felt like such a bloody girl! He didn't understand what made him so nervous about this. He had to admit to himself, Granger had filled out…very well. And he wouldn't mind getting something out of her, but she didn't seem to be wanting to spend the night here, so she probably is still disgusted with me. He thought, sighing.
His thoughts were interrupted by the sound of Hermione pulling her suitcase up those gigantic stairs.
"Why…" Hermione said, panting. "Do all the rooms have to be so far upstairs?"
"I'm not sure who designed this castle…but they must have been bonkers." Draco laughed as he helped her open her suitcase.
"Well…It's almost 10:30 and we have class tomorrow…So I'm going to bed…" Hermione stated, pulling out some clothes and going into the bathroom.
"Okay…" Draco sighed, he was used to staying up until past two and getting to class right before the bell rang, but tonight…he was going to bed at 10:30.
"Well…G'Nite." She smiled and climbed into bed. "Is there no way we can't enlarge this bed?"
Draco wasn't thinking about anything but how good she looked in those shorts and that little tank top thing. If only she wanted to…
"Draco!" Hermione squealed. "Listen!! Couldn't we just enlarge it to where we'd both have room and wouldn't have to be on top of each other?"
"We can't…" Draco said, springing back to life. "It's against the rules…"
"What rules??"
"The ones we made up."
"We?"
"Okay…Me."
"Fine…I just want sleep!"
He followed her to the bed and muttered a silencing charm before going.

Believe it or not, the silencing charm came to good use, they laid beside one another just talking for what seemed like hours. They talked about their love of reading, his tragic childhood, her feeling of emptiness at Hogwarts. He apologized for making fun of her when they were younger, and she fell asleep in his arms.

Hermione woke in yet another strange room, in strange arms…what was going on here? Then, she remember the bet…and the conversation the night before. Draco had apologized…Wait, Draco?!? Malfoy had apologized…that was better…They weren't to the point of first names…but wait, she was laying in his bed wrapped in his arms…so she might as well call him by his first name!
"Draco?" She shook him lightly. "Wake up…"
"Hmmm? Wait, what did you call me?" he said, sitting up and rubbing his eyes.
"Draco…that's your name, right?" she laughed. "I just figured it'd be a good way to really start off…first names?"
"Sounds great…" he smirked. "Hermione…"

They spent the whole day calling each other by first name…just because they liked how it sounded. That night, Draco was ready to ask about something he'd been wondering about.
"Hermione?" He asked, moving closer to her.
"Yeah…Draco?" She laughed.
"There's something about you…it's different…You seem like you're empty inside, as if you have something of your past to hide…do you? Be honest with me…you can tell me anything…" He hugged her, rubbing his hands over her back and squirmed on the inside.
"It's not that easy…and it's not really that much past…it just happened over the summer…" She trailed off and began to cry.
"No…no.." He pulled her closer. "Don't cry, baby.."
He stood there, holding her, letting her cry into his shoulder, stroking her, and just trying to do anything to make her feel better.
"Draco…there's something wrong with me…"
"What?!?" He began to panic…what could be happening to her?? Was she going to be okay? Or was it nothing major?
"I think…I think I'm falling for you. And I don't want to ruin this…" She sobbed.
"Oh God," He hugged her tighter. He felt his heart leap. "You couldn't ruin anything…I think I might possibly be falling for you too…"
"Oh wow…Who would have thought?"
She looked up…Her caramel eyes were red and puffy…yet Draco had never seen her look more beautiful. He stared her straight in the eyes, almost asking for permission, she silently agreed, and he kissed her.
He'd never felt a kiss like this, her lips were soft, her tongue enchanting, her scent was intoxicating, and he couldn't do anything but feel the passion between them finally come to a height. He began taking his hands and trying to find new places to explore….But suddenly she broke the kiss, starting crying once more.
"Over the summer…" She sniffed. "I was raped…"
