I own nothing Harry Potter!
Here's the next update. I really have no idea where I'm going with this. I am just writing and seeing where it takes me. If you have anything you want to see happen, just let me know and I will work it in. I hope to update again on Friday like usual, in the meantime enjoy!
I stood there and start to panic on the inside. Ginny had just guessed the one secret I wanted to take to my grave. She knew I'd slept with Draco, I mean I hadn't confirmed it, but I think the deer in the headlights look that was currently on my face said enough. Ginny knew me well enough to know she was right. There was no point in denying it; I'd just have to make Ginny swear to never tell a soul.
"Yes," I mumble unable to look her in the eye. I knew my face was bright red. I didn't regret sleeping with Draco, but I did feel embarrassed. No one was supposed to find out about this, but here I was only minutes after I left Draco's room and Ginny already knew.
"You slept with Draco Malfoy?" Ginny asks again with wide eyes.
"Yes Ginny, I slept with Draco," I whisper. "Now keep it down," I scold, I can't have someone over hearing us.
"You really did it," Ginny mumbles to herself with a smile. "You finally did it." Her last words catch me off guard.
"What do you mean I finally did it?" I ask in pure confusion. What is she talking about? I never showed any interest in Draco before last night. Well, I never showed any interest in Draco before last night on the outside. I'd always been interested on the inside, but I thought I'd done a good job at hiding that. Maybe I hadn't done as well as I'd thought.
"Oh come on Hermione. I'm your best friend, I can read you better than anyone," Ginny smiles at me. She seems genuinely excited about this unexpected news.
"Ginny, what are you on about?" I ask. If it was that obvious that I'd liked Draco, how many other people knew? I barely allowed myself to admit before last night.
"Hermione, I know you've liked him for years," Ginny rolls her eyes as if it's obvious.
"How?" I ask, not denying that I have liked him for years. There's no point in lying to Ginny so already knows too much she might as well know it all.
"You too have bickered back and forth forever, but for the two of you it's just like foreplay. I always wondered when you two would come to your senses and do the deed," Ginny smiles deviously.
"Wait a second…did you plan this somehow?" I ask skeptically. Something about the way that she said it made me think she was up to something. It wouldn't be the first time Ginny took it upon herself to set me up with someone.
"No," Ginny shakes her head. "Now I did hope that you two would hit it off when I made you come to Slytherin, but I didn't plan anything," she shakes her fire red hair.
"You can't tell anyone anything about this. No one can ever find out," I get to the important things. My reputation would be ruined if word got around that I slept with the Slytherin Sex god. Draco and I weren't meant to be together on the outside, but if we could make it work out behind the scenes, I was all for it.
"Oh give me a break Mione. Do you really think anyone would believe me if I said you of all people had slept with Draco Malfoy?" Ginny asks, putting her hands on her hips in exasperation. She's right, no one would believe her unless she had some type of evidence to prove it and as far as I knew there was no evidence. "Now onto the important things," Ginny sends me a mischievous smile. "Is he as good as all the rumors?" she asks curiously. Ginny is a huge gossip and it usually bugs the bloody hell out of me, but today I actually am glad she is. I want to talk to someone about last night…and this morning and who better than Ginny, the only other person who knew what had happened.
"Better," I say with a smirk. It appears as if Draco is rubbing off on me already, I never smirk…until now.
"Details Hermione!" Ginny squeals with excitement.
"I need to keep some things secret Ginny, otherwise everyone will be going after Draco and I can't have that now can I?" I smile at Ginny.
"Are you two together?" she asks excitedly.
I shrug, as I answer, "I'm not sure I think we're just kind of seeing where it goes." Draco and I hadn't done much talking when we were in his room. I wasn't sure if this was just a one-time thing for him or if he wanted to be enemies with benefits. I just wasn't sure what he thought this was. Me on the other hand, I was willing to take whatever I could get right now. Draco was too good to let go just like that, especially if we kept this all on the down low.
"When are you seeing him next?" Ginny asked, her eyes wide.
"I don't know Gin, we didn't really talk much," I answer with another shrug.
"Well you better get on that Hermione. You can't have Draco moving on to someone else," Ginny answers as if it's obvious that I need to get a move on finding Draco.
"What do you suggest I do Gin?" I ask with a tilt of my head. Ginny has a lot more experience in this field than I do. I'm not usually one to get involved so suddenly like this. She could be a great asset at getting to the bottom of whatever this was with Draco.
"Go find him, give him something that he can't resist. Draw him in and then make him come to you. You need to keep it interesting and keep him wanting you," Ginny smiles devilishly as she suggests that I tease Draco. I actually like the idea though.
"You mean tease him?" I ask to clarify.
"Yes, tease him. Drive him crazy and make him come to you," Ginny smiles at me. "Trust me, it will work like a charm."
I do trust her; it's perfect I need to get Draco to come to me. I am not going to be one of those girls that throw themselves at guys; I am going to be the girl who is unaffected. I am going to get Draco to come to me. He will be the one to give in, not me.
I am going to do it. I am going to turn the charm up and have Draco begging for me before the end. The fact that this will all be done in secret makes it even hotter and more appealing. Draco won't know what hit him.
Thanks for reading! I'd love to know what you think!
