Chapter Twenty-Two
"MALFOY! Malfoy you cheddar eating twit, open this door and I mean open this door NOW!"
"GO AWAY!" Draco yelled back, taking his pillow and burying his head underneath it.
"Open it or I will burst it to pieces!" her voice so loud that he heard every single word through the pillow.
"Oh really? Watch me not care!" he yelled, poking his head from underneath the pillow to make this statement.
"I WILL do it!"
"I WILL not care!"
"THREE... TWO... ON-"
The door flew open in front of Hermione. She grinned, "Knew you'd care."
Malfoy stood in front of her, staring her down as he held the door open, "What do you want Granger?" he glared.
"For one, put a shirt on!" she said with disgust as she noticed all he had on were boxers.
"You're lucky I have anything on... or are you?" he winked and raised his eyebrows suggestively.
"Get over yourself Malfoy."
"You know you wan--"
"Don't. Start." Hermione warned pointing a finger at him.
"What ungodly hour is it?" he yawned, pushing past her and into the hall.
"It's the ungodly hour where you go get me more cheese crackers!" she yelled.
"What?" he turned around, barely having time to catch the empty box of cheese crackers she threw at him. "Geez women, always shoving stuff my way or throwing crap at me." he commented.
"I have to have my morning cheese crackers!" she complained.
"Calm down, good Merlin, it's not like this is the last box in the world. Not the best choice of morning snack if you ask me, don't you usually drink coffee?" Draco mentally cursed himself.
Hermione gave him a questioning look, "How would you know I drink coffee in the morning?" she glared, hands on her hips.
He could never let her know that he had watched her in the morning, more than once mind you, but that was beside the point, he couldn't let her know that! Draco quickly racked his brain for an excuse. "You, you just seem like the drink coffee in the morning type of girl... women... chic?" Hermione raised an eyebrow, "Couldn't you just eat cheese like a mouse? I mean, what's the difference?"
"Are you calling me a mouse!"
"No, no, not at all and if you were one you'd make a pretty mouse... I suppose." Draco offered ending it with a big fake smile.
"Malfoyyyy," Hermione glared daggers at him.
"I'll get you more cheese crackers, I know." he sighed and shook his head and continued his walk towards the stairs.
As he walked away from her, Hermione couldn't help but look at-
"Stop staring at my bum Granger!" he called out as he headed down the stairs.
"I am NOT staring at your bum... now." she quietly added with a mischievous look in her eyes as she entered the room Malfoy had lent her.
l•l•l•l
Hermione stared at Malfoy from her spot on the couch. He was saying something while waving his arms around, shook the bag in his hand and kept on yelling his head off. He gave her a look that Hermione took as either ''What on earth are you doing?!'' or ''Did you hear what I just said?!''.
Hermione took the headphones off, "What?"
"Weren't you listening?!" Draco fumed.
"Obviously, no." she said, turning off her media player and putting it in her jean pocket.
"I had to go to five different muggle stores to get you your stupid crackers!" he yelled, "Then, it started raining, how wonderful!" sarcasm etched his voice as he threw her the wet bag.
"You could've just gotten any brand." she said, trying to ignore the drops of rain that dripped off the bag's exterior and onto her.
Draco gave her a look that could kill. "You could have told me that before I went to five fu--"
"You wouldn't of had to if you hadn't eaten them!"
"I couldn't help myself, one bite and I was hooked! Now open the damn box and share," he said, grumpily sitting on the couch next to her.
Hermione opened the box and took out a cracker, "Say the magic word." she said, dangling the cracker in front of him.
"Now." he said sharply.
She ate the cracker, "No." taking another cracker out of the box, "Let's try this again,"
"Give me the damn cracker or I'll Avada you," he glared.
"Might as well die happy," she said, eating the cracker and running away with the box.
"Granger, this is stupid!" he said as they ran around the couch.
"I'm trying to teach you a lesson here!" she yelled as she tried to fake which direction she was going.
"On what, how to act like a monkey?!"
"No!" she yelled as he made a run towards her and she jumped to the back of the couch, "Manners!"
"I have manners!" he jumped on top of the couch to try and jump behind the couch.
"You LIE!" Hermione quickly tried to run but Draco made a grab towards her and jumped off the couch, as he grabbed her he fell, taking her down with him.
Hermione's head hit his chest as her arm made contact with the floor. "Ow!" she winced.
"Fuck." he groaned in pain, trying to lift his head from the floor but just let it fall back again.
"You okay?" she asked.
"No, you?"
"Ow." was her reply. They lay there in silence and Hermione realized that Malfoy had his arm around her waist. It was sort of... nice.
"You do realize you bought two boxes right? And that the other one is still in the bag on the floor?" Hermione grinned.
Draco groaned, "Oh shut up."
"Ha ha." she teased and laughed as she looked at his annoyed face.
Draco stretched a hand behind Hermione and grabbed a cheddar from the spilled box that now lay on the floor, "I still got my cheddar." he grinned.
A/N: I know, crackers, wtf? But it made a nice chap no?
