A/N: I know that the last chapter was kinda random…since when did Draco's father care about him like that? Especially enough to bring a MUDBLOOD to his house. Well….it's a plot point, so DEAL!
Also, thank you fir the reviews, it makes me all happy on the inside:D!!!! Now, I have an other fan fic in the making. It's about Draco/Hermione ( DUH!) but there is something about Hermione's past that she didn't even know that draws them together. So…I don't really like putting stuff on unless I KNOW I'm gonna finish it because I don't like stopping half way through.
So…Yeah…it's awesome, I'm already on chapter…4? I think… I dunno… I think it's really fun with a great plot twist. MOST of my friends are hooked, so that's always good!
BTW! FYI! I'm leaving for a week soon, so don't expect any updates. I will keep writing the one that isn't published, but I can't really write this one because we go camping. I don't have a computer up there. My mom won't even allow cell phones ( if I had one). But it will be fun! School is out soon, so after that I should be writing more, though this isn't suppose to be uber long…I hope you like it!

Hermione didn't talk to Draco the rest of the week after their little "incident". She was still mad at him, and he was still holding a grudge against him for trying to force her to do anything. He should know that she was an independent woman and didn't just SUBMIT! Maybe she shouldn't have said it with a snippy tone…but his father didn't tell him, why should she?
"Have a great break 'Mione," said Ron hugging her good-bye.
"I will, thanks Ronald. Have a great Christmas, keep Harry out of trouble."
"I'm standing right here!" Harry declared rolling his eyes at her.
"I'll miss you too Harry," said Hermione giving him a hug. She turned to walk away when Harry pulled her back by the arm to hug her again.
"Careful 'Mione, Malfoy has been looking at you odd since you gave Ron a hug. Make sure you don't go near him. He's a bad egg." She patted him on the shoulder and let go. She wanted to tell Harry, but from that it was obvious that he wouldn't understand. She wanted to help. He might be a bad egg, but she knew three different potions to turn a rotten egg fresh again. She wouldn't give up on Malfoy.
"What ever you say Harry," she smiled before she loaded onto the train and left for home. It was a quite ride for the most part. She even got her own compartment! She layed down to rest, but sheep wouldn't come, so she just got comfortable and tried to pass the time with her music. She plugged her headphones in and his 'play'. She laid there listning to her music, thus not hearing the door open and then shut as Malfoy came into her compartment. Her eyes flew open when she felt a hand on her cheek. Malfoy startled when she looked at him, but he couldn't seem to bring himself to remove his hand. She pulled out her headphones and sat up, her hand on his now.
'Malfoy," she started to say, but he held his hand up to her lips, to keep her from speaking.
"Please, let me say this," he asked before sliding his hand off her lips. "I'm sorry I over reacted before, I just wanted too know what was going on. I hope you can tell me sometime, other wise this...friendship, if that's what it's called, won't work if we can't trust eachother." He looked at her, an then stood up and headed for the door.
"Malfoy," came Hermione's voice from next to him. She had stood up right behind him. She grasped his shoulder and turned him around. " Do you trust me?"
"Depends what you're going to do to me Hermione." She brought her want to her temple and he gulped, but didn't move. She pulled out a wispy strand of memory and slowly brought it to his temple, but before touching it, she placed a soft kiss on his lips. His face blanked as his mind went into the memory of when she got the note, and all the thoughts she had when she was reasding it. She especially rellished in the kiss they shared.
"I've always like the tast of you Draco," she said as she slipped out the door behind him, conifident that he would return in a few minutes or so. She went to another compartment and waited for the ride to be over. She would get there about the time Draco would come out of her memory. Perfect timing.
