Disclaimer: Don't own anything except for the plot
When Draco came out of the bathroom he glanced at his clock.
'Only 5:30', he thought, 'no doubt she is sitting on the couch doing homework.'
An idea popped into Draco's head and he couldn't help but to chuckle. Draco strode purposefully out into the common room wearing only a Slytherin green towel. He made sure he walked right in front of her to get to the kitchen to grab a cup of coffee. After retrieving his coffee, Draco started back to his room but stopped short in front of Hermione.
"Typical Granger," he said," last time I checked our assignments are due at the end of the month. Today's only the 3rd."
"So what if I don't want to end up like all the other 7th years that do their homework a week before it's due." Hermione replied darkly. "Also your towel is starting to fall." She said with a slight giggle.
Draco quickly grasped his towel and replied back after coming within an inch from her face, "I thought a know-it-all deserved some type of chip and dale show."
Hermione immediately started to blush as Draco turned around and went straight to his room to think about the recent encounter with her.
'What was I thinking,' he questioned himself, 'she would never go for a Slytherin.'
Draco refused to think of it as Hermione would never date only him.
'Wait, she's a mudblood. I shouldn't be thinking of her like this.'
He immediately felt a wave of guilt over calling her that name, even if it was only in his mind. After thinking this Draco remembered another time when he had come that close to her face, almost kissing her in the process.
Flashback
Flitwick had just announced that the soon to be Head boy and girl had to dance together.
'Oh great, I have to dance with Granger.'
Draco took hold of her hand and felt a quick jolt of electricity. Looking up he noticed he wasn't the only one but Draco did not dismiss it as "Static Electricity."
Cascada started to sing and all the while Draco couldn't dismiss his thoughts.
His hands felt like they belonged in the spot where he touched her body.
My stone heart was breaking,
My love ran away.
Draco smiled slightly.
This moment I knew,
I would be someone else.
Draco moved closer to her hoping she wouldn't notice.
My love turned around,
And I fell.
Draco released her to spin her right before the chorus started.
Be my bad boy,
Be my man.
'I would be if she would let me.'
Be my weekend lover,
But don't be my friend.
'But I also want to be your friend.'
You can be my bad boy,
But understand.
'Wait, I can't think of her this way. It's Buck-toothed, know-it-all, mudblood granger.' Draco all of a sudden felt a pang of guilt.
That I don't need you,
In my life again.
He looked into her eyes and he was overcome with a wave of emotions.
Won't you be my bad boy,
Be my man.
'Nobody should have such warm chocolate brown eyes,' he thought.
Be my weekend lover,
But don't be my friend.
He couldn't believe it,
You can be my bad boy,
But understand.
He, Draco Malfoy, was falling head over heels for Hermione?
That I don't need
You again,
She had tripped slightly and he had pulled her closer, their lips mere inches from each other.
No I don't need
You again.
Draco started spinning and dipping Hermione feeling it was the right thing to do.
Bad Boy
The two words that defined him, and by the end of the night he would live up to it.
You once made this promise,
To stay by my side.
He stopped spinning her thinking, 'I will always be by your side.'
But after some time you,
Just pushed me aside.
Draco locked eyes with her and felt a great burst of heat all of a sudden.
You never thought that,
A girl could be strong.
'I would never doubt that about you,' he thought while smiling.
Now I'll show you how to,
Go on.
Draco leaned in again making it too where their lips almost touched.
Be my bad boy,
Be my man,
Be my weekend lover,
But don't be my friend.
With their lips so close his mind was foggy.
You can be my bad boy,
But understand,
That I don't need you,
In my life again.
Again he spun her but when he brought her back he made sure their lips were mere centimeters away.
'Damn she looks hot,' he thought while breathing lightly on her lips and in her mouth.
Won't you be my bad boy,
Be my man.
Be my weekend lover,
But don't be my friend.
He dipped her and brought her back to the original position they were in.
You can be my bad boy,
But understand.
That I don't need you again,
No I don't need you again.
He was about to kiss her when the song ended. Making it sound like he planned to be only a breath away he whispered "Gottcha Granger."
All while thinking 'Damn it, I was so close, and I let her go.'
He heard her whisper "Bloody Ferret."
Draco than preceded from the Great Hall and straight to his dorm so no one would notice that he had come close to kissing her.
End Flashback
Draco shook off the flashback and continued getting dressed all the while thinking of another way to get her close enough to kiss.
After getting properly dressed, Draco too went to the common room to start his homework trying to prove he wasn't like all the other 7th years. Draco took the seat across from her and started to work, occasionally looking up and catching her staring at him. When he finished his charms project, Draco got up and headed towards the portrait hole.
"Where are you going," Hermione asked him.
"Seeing as it's already seven," Draco retorted, "I'm going to get breakfast."
"Even though we have a kitchen here?"
"Unlike some, I prefer the exercise going down the stairs," he replied, "Will you be joining me?"
Being done with her Charms and Transfiguration projects Hermione walked towards the portrait hole where Draco was standing. Trying to open the portrait at the same time their hands touched. Again the shock went through both of them and Draco found himself staring into those eyes again. Without knowing what they were doing Draco instinctively leaned down and caught her lips with his. Draco's mind was reeling. He was actually kissing her, after months of planning, it had happened by accident. Hermione finally pulled away and asked,
"What are we doing?'
"Last time I checked I was snogging you after so many months of wanting to."
Draco went to kiss her again but she started talking once more.
"Wait, you've been wanting to do this?"
"Yeah, so?" He asked her with a quizzical look on his face.
"Malfoy, I've been wanting for you to do this since the dance."
"Then why don't you shut up for once to get what you've been waiting for?" and with that Draco caught her lips again and had backed her into the wall.
Hermione put both hands around his neck pulling him closer while Draco had one hand on her hip while the other was cupping her face.
When they finally broke apart Draco looked down at his wrist.
"Shit."
It was 7:45 and they both only had 15 minutes to get to the dungeons for potions with Slughorn.
Both practically fell down the steps before arriving outside of the potions room with a few minutes to spare. Draco kissed her cheek before strolling into class followed by Hermione a couple seconds later. There was only one table left in the back so both proceeded to sit at it. No one noticed that they had even come in, Slughorn walking in shortly after calling the attention of his distracted class.
