1Disclaimer: I do not own Harry Potter. I wish I did, but wishes don't come true.
AN: Sorry it took so long. Enjoy. Oh yeah bloc party is my new obsession! Just a random thought.
— Hermione stood in her darkened room after she said goodbye to Malfoy and stared out side the window to look at the shadow ruled land of hogwarts. A sigh left her mouth as she sat down on her bed to think about the nights events.
I don't know what I'm doing but I don't think I can stop. Hermione thought with frustration. She hated when she was confused or felt weak in a situation. This particular situation had her both. But what about Ron? I want a relationship. I want someone to call me their girlfriend and hold me in public, never call me a mudblood, and actually love me. All this thinking proved to much for Hermione to comprehend so she stood up and left the room to go and walk around the castle.
— Draco walked down the abandoned halls back to his common room, hearing nothing but the tapping of his feet on the cold stone floors. He rounded a corner and spotted two figures against a wall. Interest sparked in him as he took cover behind a pillar to watch the couple. As he watched more closely he noticed that it was Blaise and that Ginny girl. I thought Ginny was in her room?! Draco thought confused then decided to confront the two of them. He didn't know what games she was playing at but it wouldn't be with his best friend.
"Hello, you two love birds." Draco's voice lifted over the shadows and startled the two of them. Ginny automatically took cover behind Blaise's broad shoulders and Blaise tried his best not too look winded. He failed miserably. His hair was a mess, his shirt was off a button and untucked from his wrinkled pants, and a shade of red lipstick was smeared on his lips. Draco couldn't help but laugh at this.
"What do you want Malfoy?" Ginny finally spoke up and poked her head out from behind Blaise. She looked just as scruffy.
"Oh just wondering what you were doing down here when I just saw you sleeping in your room?" Draco said with a smirk obviously thinking he had the advantage on the situation. Blaise chuckled and shook his head.
"What were you doing in my room?" Ginny snapped at him now moving out from behind Blaise completely. Draco's eyes went wide and mentally beat himself up to a bloody pulp, He hadn't thought about that. Way to go your affair with Hermione is over before it began. Draco thought. Blaise just stood there and laughed. He thought it was extremely funny, he knew what he was doing in Ginny's room.
"I-I..." Draco couldn't finish simply because he was at a loss for words. Draco Malfoy was speechless.
— Hermione had been walking in the particular direction of the scene with Draco, Blaise, and Ginny when she heard voices around the corner. Her curiosity got the best of her so she peeked around the corner and immediately stopped to listen to what was going on.
"What were you doing in my room?" Hermione heard Ginny ask Malfoy. When Draco failed to answer Hermione felt that she needed to make herself noticeable and stepped out of the darkness.
"I was helping him with homework." Hermione spoke as she neared the three. Ginny's eyes went wide with the sudden intrusion. Blaise just looked at her with a small knowing smile. Hermione's heart sank. Oh god he knows! Hermione panicked.
"You were helping Malfoy in our dorm at ten 'o' clock?" Ginny asked unbelieving.
"Yes he paid me, jeez Ginny what else would we be doing?" Hermione asked her with narrowed eyes. Draco mimicked the look and put his arms across his chest.
"Yeah Weasley, what else would we be doing?" Draco repeated. Ginny shrugged, not wanting to put her foot in her mouth.
"Well since that's all sorted out I'll be leaving." Draco spoke as he looked directly into Hermione's eyes. Hermione was stuck in place just staring at Draco staring at her. Blaise noticed this and nudged Draco in the side snapping him into reality.
"Oh, yeah we'll be leaving too!" Hermione snapped out of it and grabbed Ginny by the arm and drug her down the hall.
"Bye Blaise!" Ginny yelled to him before she disappeared behind the corner.
"Bye babe!" The faint shout of Blaise was heard.
I want someone to call me babe. Hermione thought as she drug Ginny away.

— "That was a close one." Blaise commented when he was sure Hermione and Ginny were out of hearing range.
"Yeah..." Draco trailed off as he watched Hermione walk away.
"Can you be anymore pathetic?" Blaise snorted and stuck his hand in front of Draco's sight so he couldn't see Hermione anymore. Draco sighed and turned to face Blaise.
"Me? Pathetic? Need I remind you, I just caught you and Ginny in the hall probably getting ready to shag? At least I have enough class to get Granger into an actual bed." Draco smirked at him. Blaise just shook his head and started to walk back to the common room with Draco close behind.
"Pansy was looking for you." Blaise told informed Draco.
"What did she want?" He groaned.
"I don't know but she seemed pretty upset." Blaise said as they reached the entrance to their common room in the lower dungeon.
"Slither." Draco murmured to the painting. The door swiftly swept open and revealed a slightly red faced Pansy. Draco cocked an eyebrow and entered the common room and sat down with out one word to Pansy. Pansy's face grew redder with rage as she stomped up to Malfoy and poked him in the chest.
"Just who do you think you are?" Pansy hissed. Draco wasn't having this. He grabbed her by the wrists and shook her violently.
"Who do I think I am? Who in the HELL do you think you are?!" Draco fumed, he hated it when Pansy had these little fits. Pansy's eyes immediately filled with tears as she struggled with Malfoy.
"I'm tired of being treated like this!" Pansy sobbed. Draco rolled his eyes and let her go making her fall to a heap on the grouond.
"Get up Pansy." Draco commanded calmly. Pansy obeyed and stood up to look him squar in the eye.
"It's over." She spoke slowly and clearly. Draco just laughed at her making Pansy feel dumb.
"Oh, my dear sweet Pansy, It's been over the second I started thinking of different people when we fucked." Pansy started crying again and tried to take a swipe at his face. Draco caught her hand and shoved it away angrily.
"You're a bastard Draco." Pansy gritted then turned on her heel and tried to walk away with as much dignity as she possibly could. Draco sighed and shook his head then decided it was time for bed.

— "Tell me the truth Hermione, What was Malfoy really doing in our room?" Ginny asked with skepticalness. Hermione sighed frustrated and didn't answer. Ginny had asked her that six times now and the answer was still the same.
"We were studying."
"I thought you were tutoring him." Ginny retorted clearly thinking she had trapped Hermione.
"I was tutoring him, He was studying and so was I." Hermione was getting sick of this. Why didn't Ginny just believe her?!
"Why-" Ginny was cut off by Hermione.
"Ginny I told you, I was tutoring him okay? I needed some extra money so I said that I'd tutor him!" Hermione nearly shouted but didn't. She wasn't angry at Ginny, she could understood that it must be weird having your enemy in your room so late at night.
"Sorry, it's just weird is all." Ginny let the matter drop and an awkward silence fell upon them both.
"So, how was your little shindig with Zabini?" Hermione asked trying to lighten the mood.
"It was amazing!" Ginny giggled.

— The night had came and went the sun rose and went down and Draco was anxiously waiting to see Hermione walk through the door for their shared detention. He glanced at the clock. 10 seconds till eight. Hermione was never late.
10,he started counting down the seconds 9, God she's beautiful 8, I want to be in her! 7, I hope Weasley chokes. 6, five more seconds to go! 5, I'm going to have her tonight whether she likes it or not. 4 where is she? 3, I hear footsteps. 2, the doorknobs turning 1,WHAT IS WEASLEY DOING WITH HER?!
Draco sent a glare in their direction as Ron took a seat at the table they had shared that moment on. A flash of rage went spiraling down Draco's body as Ron leaned his head on his hand and looked at Hermione with lust filled eyes. Hermione hadn't even looked at Malfoy yet.
"So I was thinking that maybe...You would be interested in being my girlfriend?" Ron asked Hermione with a slight tint of pink of his cheeks.
Merlin this boys pathetic! Draco snickered to him self. Hermione will never say yes.
"Yes!" She nearly jumped with excitement.
What?! Did she just say yes?! Draco tried to catch up with what he had just witnessed. What's it matter to you? You're the one who came up with that last rule. His voice taunted him, Draco made a slight coughing sound to get Hermione's attention.
— Hermione turned in her seat and look at Malfoy, She was trying to avoid his gaze as best as she could. He's the one who doesn't want a relationship, he's the one who made up the last rule. He's the one to blame! Hermione told herself. Blame for what? Good question. What was he to blame for? He's the one to blame for getting me all confused! I didn't ask to like Malfoy! Hermione's thoughts startled her. She did like Malfoy. She liked the way he fit in her, the way he smelled, the way he kissed her, hell she liked the way that boy walked! But she also liked Ron. Right? She liked Ron right?!
"What is it Malfoy?" Ron asked him as he shot a glare towards his direction.
"Nothing, I just don't want to watch a blood traitor and a Her-mudblood get all sappy." He caught himself. He had almost called her Hermione.
"You watch the way you talk to my girlfriend!" Ron yelled and stood up as if challenging Malfoy.
"Or what?" Draco asked lazily. He didn't even bother to stand up. Ron flushed and walked closer to Malfoy invading his personal space. Malfoy stood when he got a little to close for comfort and found that he stood a good 5 inches taller then Ron. Ron looked up at him and gulped. Maybe this wasn't his fight after all? Malfoy smirked and sat back down obviously not taking Ron as a threat.
"You're below me Malfoy." Ron spat and walked back to Hermione who was watching with a peaked interest. Malfoy winked at Hermione when Ron's back was turned making her blush. Ron mistook the blush for him and swiftly walked up to Hermione and planted a kiss on her lips. Malfoy was turned in his seat staring at the couple wishing Ron would drop dead. But he didn't he continued to kiss her. Right in front of him. As he stared he saw that Hermione's eyes were open and she was staring directly at him as she moved her lips against Ron's. This made Draco feel superior.
"Friday." He Draco mouthed to her and turned around no longer being able to keep his cool as he watched her lips being tainted with his.
Friday. Hermione thought. She couldn't wait.
AN: I hope you liked it. It will get more action packed soon.
