Hey Everyone :) Sorry about the extremely long wait. This semester of school is seriously kicking my butt. I don't have too much time for anything. But I think I finally have a handle on things. Here is chapter 7. I hope ya'll like it.

Lesson One & The New Girl

"Okay Miss Granger," Draco said situating himself on the coffee table in front of the couch that Hermione was sitting on. "Lesson One." Hermione nodded her head to show her understanding that they were about to begin.

"Lesson one is all about kissing. I already know that you're a good kisser, but what I am teaching you is kissing as a form of foreplay." Draco stated.

"Is that different from regular kissing?"

"Very different. You see Granger, you do this thing when you kiss. It's so innocent and so sweet. I can't help but register in my head how pure you are every time we kiss. That isn't the goal for this. The goal is to make Potter think that you aren't innocent and pure. "

"Okay, that makes sense. But how should I be kissing then?

"Your kiss needs to invoke passion. It should be sexy and sultry. When you're with Potter, he should literally get a hard on within the first five minutes." As much as Draco was trying to hide it, he hated thinking about Hermione and Harry together. Draco had his reasons for following through with this agreement, one, because he wanted to have sex with her, and two, simply because she asked for his help. It was as if he no longer had the heart to say no to her. He literally had to force himself to still be mean to her.

"So, kiss me, and try and do it with some passion." Draco continued. Hermione moved to the edge of the couch, and laid her hands on his upper thighs, as she leaned in to kiss him. When their lips met it was soft and gentle. Hermione tongue gained entrance and got to know the inside of his mouth. She was getting more comfortable with kissing him, so she deepened the kiss. The kiss was getting faster, and slightly more passionate, and then Hermione pulled away.

"So?" Hermione questioned.

"Literally that was horrible. You didn't listen to anything I said. Putting your hands on my thighs was a good move. It started to turn me on, but the kiss needs to be hot and passionate, not sweet and gentle Granger."

"But I thought I was being more passionate."

"Okay, let me show you what I mean. " Draco leaned in and lightly brushed his lips against Hermione's. Hermione instantly got goose bumps. When Draco fully pressed his lips upon Hermione's both of their body temperatures heated up. Draco opened his mouth, waiting for Hermione to grant him entrance into hers. Once she finally did, it was as if the kiss ignited. Hermione felt as if every inch of her body should be touching his. Draco's kiss was making her lose control. With one hand she intertwined her fingers in his hair, and with the other she pulled him as close to her as possible. Draco didn't resist at all, instead he continued to turn her on as much as he possibly could. Slowly he moved from her lips to her neck, which he gently nibbled, leaving his mark on her. Hermione let out a soft moan. Draco smiled and reluctantly pulled away. Hermione looked at him with longing in her eyes. She wasn't ready for him to stop.

"You see how different that was then when you kissed me?" Draco questioned. Hermione nodded her head. "Feel how hard I am." Draco said as he grabbed Hermione's hand and placed it on top of his black slacks so she could feel his erection. Hermione's eyes widened slightly. Draco noticed.

"Seriously Granger, you are too cute." He said with a smirk, right before he gently kissed her lips again. "Now it's your turn again. Remember the goal is to turn me on as much as possible."

Hermione spent the rest of the afternoon perfecting her kiss with Draco's help. Despite the drama between them, they were getting along great. The hardest part for both of them was making sure things didn't go too far.

Once ten p.m. came around it was time for the Head Students to patrol the halls of Hogwarts for a couple of hours. Hermione and Draco set out down the hall way with cheerful attitudes. They chatted about random things and past relationships they had both been in.

"You look cold Granger. Are you cold?" Draco asked noticing Hermione was slightly shivering.

"No." She replied, just as her teeth began chattering.

"Yes, you are." Draco took off his green and black sweatshirt and handed it to Hermione. "Wear this." Hermione smiled and put it on.

"You know Malfoy, I never thought me and you would ever get along. And I hope this isn't too soon to be saying this but I think you and I have the potential to be really good friends."

"Yeah, friends." Draco responded. A couple of moments passed with silence between the two, until Draco slyly grabbed Hermione's hand and held it. She didn't speak, only smiled as the continued to walk. The halls were empty and quiet, and they both felt as if it was pointless for them to be patrolling them.

"Let's head back to the room. There is no one out here." Draco said. Hermione looked down at the floor.

"Well, you see, I told Harry earlier that I would come see him while I patrolled the halls. But I mean, I don't have to, I can just see him tomorrow." Draco could tell that despite Hermione's words she really wanted to go see Harry, so he agreed. Once they reached the Gryffindor common room Draco stopped.

"What are you doing?" Hermione questioned.

"I'll wait here, so you don't have to walk back to the room alone." Draco had his back leaned against the wall, and his hands in his pockets. Hermione smiled.

"Malfoy, come on. I'm not going to make you wait out here. Come in."

"Are you sure?"

"Yes!" Hermione said as she grabbed Draco by the hand and pulled him into the common room. There weren't very many people in the room, most had already turned in for the night, but a few remained. Harry was one of them.

"Hermione, what is he doing here?" Harry asked when he noticed Hermione and Draco had entered the room. He stood and walked over to his girlfriend protectively. "You need to leave now Malfoy."

"Lay off Harry. I invited him in." Hermione interjected. Harry looked at her puzzled. "Harry baby, you may hate Malfoy, but I don't. He has been trying his hardest to be civil towards me and make this head students thing work, and I appreciate that. I am trying to do the same towards him, but it's not going to be easy if you and he are at each other's necks. So like I said, lay off." Harry was taken aback. Hermione's newfound tolerance for Draco confused him, but to not cause any further arguments he just nodded his head, and then kissed her with a slightly harder than normal kiss.

"I'm sorry baby." Harry said as he tried to hide his distaste for the current situation. Draco was also a bit taken aback by Hermione's words. He hadn't expected her to defend him. He was happy she did though. It was awkward for him, standing in the Gryffindor common room. It was as if all eyes were on him. Everyone wanted to know why he was there. One particular girl caught his eyes, as she walked over to him. Her hair was long, straight and platinum blonde. She wore a red tank top, and a pair of jean shorts, that looked as if they had been cut four or five inches shorter than they were supposed to be. Draco couldn't help but stare at her legs, they were miles long, but as she got closer Draco couldn't help but stare at her chest. The tank she was wearing was more than slightly revealing.

"Hello, I'm Sarah." The girl said extending her hand towards Draco, which he gently shook. Meanwhile, Hermione and Harry had seated themselves down on the nearest couch. Harry was talking to Hermione, but she couldn't take her eyes off of the girl Draco was with.

"I am Malfoy." Draco responded to Sarah.

"Last name basis?" Sarah asked in a smooth voice.

"You may be beautiful, but you're still a Gryffindor."

"Touché." Sarah responded. Just then Harry also noticed the girl Draco was talking to.

"Hermione, this is Sarah." Harry said as he stood up, ushering his hands towards the beautiful girl standing to his right. Hermione rose for her seat also. "She just arrived here today."

"Hello, Sarah, I'm Hermione. Nice to meet you." Hermione said in a voice that seemed almost too fake.

"Yeah, Hermione, Harry here has told be lots about you." Sarah said placing her hand on Harry's shoulder. "Oh, and nice sweatshirt." This was the first time Harry noticed the Slytherin hoodie Hermione had on. There was an awkward silence. Harry looked at Hermione suspiciously.

"She was freezing, so I gave her my jacket." Draco said breaking the silence.

"What a gentleman." Sarah said, this time putting her hand on Draco's shoulder. "I like that." Draco couldn't help but smile. Hermione could feel herself getting angry. This girl was flirting with not only Harry, but now Draco too. Hermione couldn't stand it.

"And seriously Hermione," Sarah continued, "You have to be the luckiest girl in the world. Not only are you dating Harry, the sweetest guy in the world, who is also extremely good looking, you get to live with Malfoy, who is super sexy. I wish I was in your shoes."

"I bet." Hermione said with a fake laugh. "Goodnight baby." Hermione kissed Harry on the lips, grabbed Draco's arm and pulled him out of the common room.

"Woah, someone is in a rush." Draco said once they were in the hall.

"She was all over you and Harry like white on rice. Who does that skank think she is?" Hermione said frustrated.

"I think she is pretty hot." Draco responded. Hermione didn't respond, she just let out a sigh. She didn't like this new Sarah girl how seemed to be intruding on her territory. Where had she come from and what was her agenda for Draco and Harry? All of these questions were rattling around in Hermione's head, but one thing in particular was on her mind. Draco wasn't holding her hand like he had on the way to the common room, and Hermione couldn't help but think that it was because of Sarah.

So, what did ya'll think? Review and let me know. Oh, and for anyone who is interested, I have this blog called Rich Girl. I started it not too long ago, but if you're bored one day, check it out. Thanks loves. I'll update soon!
