Pansy and Ron

For the next few days Draco gave Ron pointers on courting Pansy. And arranged several opportunities for Ron to 'bump' into her. Of course this plan involved Draco being his absolute nastiest to Pansy. He didn't hate her, but if he wanted this to work it was necessary. On one such occasion Pansy had approached Draco in the corridor outside of the potions class.

"When can we get together and talk Draco?" she flirted.

"Never. Get it through your ugly head Pansy. I don't love you. I love Hermione. Now get out of my way." he pushed her out of the way roughly knocking her books to the floor. Ron was waiting just around the corner. Draco walked away swiftly and gave Ron the 'thumbs up'.

Pansy had tears in her eyes as she picked up her things. Draco had never been so mean to her. Ron walked up quietly and kneeled down to help her.

"There." he said smiling as he piled the books and quills into her arms.

"Uh…thanks." she said softly.

"He should not have done that to you." Ron said looking into her dark eyes that were swimming with tears.

"He doesn't mean it. That mudblood has him acting like a real jerk." she huffed.

"I think they have both changed." Ron said sorrowfully. "Hermione just isn't the same."

"Yeah." Pansy said. "Well thanks for helping pick up my things. I'll see you around."

"Uh…wait." Ron said. Draco had told him that if she starts to be civil to make his move.

"Yes?" she asked expectantly.

"Wannagoforawalk?" he said quickly. Pansy looked at him cocking her head slightly to the side. Maybe, just maybe this would work. Maybe she could use Weasley to make Draco jealous. Yes, that could just work.

"Sure." she said. "Let me put my books away and meet me in the entrance hall."

Ron grinned widely. He was going to take her walking by where Draco had told him that he and Hermione would be. He walked whistling towards the hall where Pansy met him a few minutes later.

"Ready?" he asked.

"Yes." she replied. She intertwined her arm with his and went out the front door of Hogwarts towards the quidditch pitch.

"So…" he started uncomfortably. He didn't know quite what to say. The tips of his ears turned red.

"Yeah, so…" she said back to him.

"How are things?" he blurted.

"They have been better. My fiancée is hooking up with a mudblood, but other than that just peachy." she said sarcastically.

"I know what you mean. I have been waiting to be with her since our first year. And then 'poof' its gone." he told her.

"Weren't you dating Lavender Brown too?" she asked curiously.

"Yeah, and Hermione yanked that from me too. I think she is hooked up with Blaise Zabini now." Ron said.

"ZABINI AND BROWN?" Pansy asked trying to control her laughter. "This world has gone mad."

"Yeah." he chuckled. Ron noticed that Pansy was slightly cute when she laughed. And this was the first time he had truly seen her laugh. Usually she wore a scowl or a smirk to match Draco's. Draco told Ron that she was a sucker for compliments.

"You are cute when you laugh, you know that?" he smiled, his face turning redder than ever.

"Yeah?" she asked. "You are not too bad yourself."

Ron felt the knot in the pit of his stomach loosen as they walked by the lake and towards the quidditch pitch.

Hermione and Draco were sitting near the quidditch stadium watching for Ron and Pansy. Draco kept kissing her neck and leaving tiny red marks as a sign of triumph. Hermione giggled and pushed him away teasingly.

"Here they come!" Hermione said pointing. Sure enough Ron and Pansy were walking by, arms locked together, and to Draco's surprise they were laughing. Laughing and talking and smiling. He could scarcely believe it.

"Kiss me now." Draco said moving into the open and pulling Hermione into a tight embrace. She kissed him hard and long. Running her hands through his hair and moving her tongue across his lips.

Ron and Pansy stopped to stare at Hermione and Draco. Ron huffed in disgust and was joined in his comment by Pansy. She looked ready to scratch out Hermione's eyes.

"Kiss me Weasley." she demanded.

"What? Now?" he said shocked.

"NOW!" she yelled pulling his head down to hers and kissing him passionately on the lips. Ron had to lean way over to kiss her since she was so much shorter than him. She brought her hands up around his neck and pretended to really get into it.

Hermione nudged Draco in the ribs and pointed to Ron and Pansy. Draco couldn't help but laugh into her mouth as he watched Ron be mauled by Pansy. She was definitely the aggressor. Ron's arms were flailing in all different directions as he tried to control the snogging session. Now it was time for Hermione to put her act on. The act of jealousy. She stopped kissing Draco and stormed off past Ron and Pansy who looked like they were about to swallow one another. Draco called off after her but she was running back towards the castle now. Ron gave Draco a sly wink as he passed and Draco gave him another 'thumbs up' as he followed Hermione back into the castle.

Hermione ran all the way up to their common room and shut the door behind her. Minutes later Draco came in.

"Did it work?" she asked.

"I think it just might have." he said grabbing her shoulders and kissing her softly.

"Why do things have to be so hard?" she asked him, her lips dangerously close to his again.

"Merlin Hermione, I don't know. But if this works maybe things will get easier." he kissed her again, a little more aggressively, his hand snaking up her button up school blouse.

"Ah…what are you doing?" she teased.

"I think you know the answer to that." he growled in her ear. Goosebumps erupted on her skin.

"I know that…" she stuttered. "But it's the middle of the day and we have loads of homework to do."

"But it's been so long Hermione." he told her kissing and sucking on her neck.

"It has not." she said trying to think of the last time they were together. "Well maybe it has." she replied realizing it was before Christmas break. She felt a need rising deep within her. Without realizing it he had unbuttoned her blouse and was massaging her breasts as he kissed her long and hard. Her stomach filled with that familiar feeling of lust and nervousness.

"Not here." she whispered backing up towards the steps. He continued kissing her as she walked up the steps backwards towards his room.

"Just couldn't wait to get me into my room eh Granger?" he smirked.

"Egomaniac." she said in between kisses. "My room is a mess. And I haven't unpacked…but if you would rather not have me in there…" she pushed him away and started off towards her room.

"Get over here." he said pulling her by the arm back into his tight embrace. And with that he picked her up off of her feet and carried her into his room. She gasped as he threw her onto the bed, his silvery eyes full of lust. He undressed quickly and crawled towards her slowly on the bed. He had a sultry bedroom look on his face. He removed her shoes and socks. Kissing his way up her legs he unfastened her skirt and tossed it off the bed. Her shirt was already off just leaving her bra and panties remaining. He kissed up her stomach and towards her chest; reaching around to unhook her bra. Quick as a flash he had that off as well. Finally he was lying across her nearly nude body and kissing her deeply. His hands ran through her silky curls as she moaned into his mouth.

"It's been too long." he whispered into her hear.

"Mmmm…" was all she could manage as he nibbled her neck and collarbone. She felt his thumbs tugging on the elastic of her sheer knickers and soon they were off as well. She felt his harness rubbing her thigh and made her heart beat hard and fast. Finally she could no longer take the teasing nature of his movements. She shifted her body so that he was in between her legs and soon enough he entered her waiting body.

"Oh." she groaned. It had been longer than she thought. She could tell by the look on his face that he was thinking the same thing. He moved slowly but purposefully. He enjoyed taking every moment of time he could. Driving her to the edge of orgasm and back down again. Teasing her. He would have never guessed that bookworm Hermione Granger could become such a lust kitten. Of course, he reminded himself, he had a lot to do with that. His stomach muscles flexed with every moment and Hermione took the moment to run her hands up and down his abs.

"You missed those didn't you?" he whispered in her ear causing goosebumps to erupt on her skin. She nodded silently before pulling him down for several long moments of snogging him silly. She felt that familiar feeling stirring in her body. That tidal wave of pleasure she knew only too well.

"Oh…Draco!" she yelled out as the feeling filled her up and left just as quickly. A moment later he too was screaming out her name. He rolled off of her and preformed a contraceptive spell on her.

"Well worth the wait." she smiled letting her eyes trail over his beautiful nude frame. His hand intertwined with hers and they fell asleep like that, sleeping through dinner time.

Meanwhile Pansy and Ron had continued their walk after Hermione had run off.

"You are a bloody brilliant kisser Pansy." Ron said, turning several shades of crimson.

"You weren't so bad yourself Weasley." she joked, poking him playfully in the side.

"So there is a Hogsmeade trip on Valentine's Day…and I was thinking maybe we could go." he said mumbling half of the sentence.

"Well…sure. What the hell." she replied. And though Pansy would not admit it to anyone, ever, she was actually having fun with Weasley. She was a huge quidditch fan and spent the rest of the walk riling Ron up about his favorite team.

"I mean the Cannons just have no talent anymore." she said as they sat down near the lake. Light snow was beginning to fall.

"How can you say that?" Ron asked turning red once more. "They have Jenkins for a seeker! He is the fastest in the league! And they have Rollins. He is the best keeper around!"

Pansy just laughed.

"You are delusional."

"You are impossible." he said.

"I try to be. Now the Tornados have a real shot at the World cup next time around. Their seeker is so fast you can't even see him with your Omnoculars." she said.

"Having a fast seeker and no other talent does not make a good team." he huffed.

"They have other talent!" she said indignantly.

"You are cute when you are upset." he said smiling at her. Her nose was wrinkled and she had a pout on her face. And now her cheeks had a slight pink tinge to them.

"Uh…thanks." she said looking down at the snowy ground. Ron took off his extra coat and put it around her shoulders.

"I'd better get you back before we freeze to death." he said smiling at her.

"Yeah, we will miss dinner if we are not back up to the castle soon." Pansy replied.

"Can't have that." Ron said grabbing her hand and leading her back past the Quidditch pitch back to the castle.
