Chapter 3- Angry rants and loving kisses
The walk up to the castle was a long quite and confusing one. Both minds were reflecting on what had happened in the past few hours. The blonde was wondering why he had to break the moment and let go of Hermione, it had felt so good holding her so close to him. Then he started wondering why on earth that had just run through his head? He was a pureblood a Malfoy none the less, why would he ever fall or a filthy mudblood especially one in Gryffindor?
The brunette was thinking along the same lines. Why had she felt so, so wonderful in Malfoy's arms like nothing could touch her and he would always protect her. When she had thought this it startled her. Why would she be thinking that about the ignorant git, ferret faced, egotistical, absolute moron, who was undoubtedly hot. Hermione broke step, why in the hell did that cross her mind? Malfoy had just kept walking too lost in thought to notice the petite girl walking beside him had stopped. Hermione five seconds later realized what she was doing and ran to catch up. Hermione fell in step with Draco again and the two continued walking up to the castle. When they reached the door Professor McGonagall was waiting there for them.
"You two took longer than expected." McGonagall said Shirley
"Sorry I had to get ready." Hermione said eyes still downcast
"No matter, fallow me." McGonagall said turning around and walking off to the headmaster's office
The three walked in silence their shoes making soft thuds against the floor. Then they reached the two gargoyles guarding the entrance to the headmaster's office.
"Sugar Newts" McGonagall said and the gargoyle's burst apart and the staircase appeared spiraling up towards the office above.
Professor McGonagall stepped on the staircase. Draco and Hermione stepped on behind her, the stairs carrying them up. When they reached the big wooden oak door at the top Professor McGonagall opened it and stepped inside. Sitting down at the headmaster's desk McGonagall looked at them, Dumbledore's large portrait behind her empty.
"So you two are now the head boy and girl I have called you hear to have a brief meeting and give you some papers on your new prefects and how you should be organizing the patrols and other prefect duties." She said handing Hermione a large manila envelope. "Also, the head boy and girl get to decide how their common room and dorms will look and what colors will be there. You both must be unanimous on the common room and kitchen, but while designing your personal quarter can put whatever you want as long as it is within the school rules." She finished looking at Malfoy as she said this. "Any questions?"
For once in her life Hermione had no questions to ask all she needed to know, was either just told to her or were in the thick envelope in her hands.
"If you think of any questions feel free to ask me until then, the library is open for you two to go plan what your common room will look like. You are dismissed."
The two got up and left walking to the library rather awkwardly still not talking to one another. When they reached the library Hermione instantly sat down at her usual table and started taking the papers out of the envelope spreading them around the table. Malfoy slowly sat down next to her looking at all the papers spread about just the sheer numbers of papers was giving him a slight headache.
"Do we actually have to read all of these?" Malfoy whined
"Yes we do we have to give everyone patrol schedules and other such duties that prefects do." Hermione replied
Malfoy started picking up papers in pairs of two of putting them together, when all the papers we in pairs of two he kicked his feet up on the table, leaned his chair back, and put his hands behind his head.
"There, done, now can we design our common room and leave I'd rather not waste the rest of my day with a muggleborn doing mindless paper work." He said a sneer in his voice.
Hermione looked at him his eyes he was lying to her. Hermione surprisingly felt a rush of happiness knowing Malfoy actually wanted to spend some time with her. Then she realized she was probably misreading his eyes.
"Whatever Malfoy just leave it doesn't really matter does it? You can just design your dorm from your room and when I finish the design for the common room and the kitchen I'll owl it to you so you can see if you like it." Hermione said huffily putting all the papers angrily back into the manila envelope and standing up fast causing the chair to crash over with a large bang. She started to storm out of the library, but was stopped by a sudden hand on her shoulder. She turned around to find Malfoy merely inches from her. Did she really read his eyes right?
"You forgot your bag." Malfoy said taking a step back and holding it out to her. She took it and tried to walk off yet again mad she was wrong, but she was stopped yet again by Malfoy. She looked into his eyes; there was a strange longing in them. He took one step forward and closed the distance between them. Blue met brown as they looked at each other. Malfoy closed the distance between them and his lips softly met hers lovingly. Hermione surprised dropped her bag. Then regaining her sense with the loud thud it made pulled back from Malfoy. She took one look into his eyes and ran out of the library forgetting her bag in the process. Malfoy just stood there shocked, had he really just kissed his sworn enemy?
