Draco sat up running his hands over his face. Where had she gone? He got up and put his boxers back on and went to check the kitchen and bathroom. He could tell she wasn't there her clothes were gone and his shirt was hanging from the back of a kitchen chair. Only Hermione would skip out on him and tidy up as she did. He didn't know what went wrong. Damn. He sat on the chair and put is head in his hands. He was just contemplating what to do when there was a knock on the door. He was going to leave it then the knock came again. He stood up and threw the door open, and there she was, stood there with coffee in her hands.
'Erm, Hi.' She said. He stepped aside and let her in.
'I thought you'd left.' He said.
'I did.' She said looking at the floor she wasn't sure where to look. He was stood there in just his boxers. She hadn't realized what a good body he had last night, she was too swept up in the moment.
'I thought you weren't coming back.' He clarified moving closer to her putting his finger under her chin lifting her face so she would look at him.
'I wasn't going to.' She said.
'Why not?' He asked.
'Draco I don't think…' He put a finger to her lips making her stop.
'You think too much.' He said before replacing his finger with his lips. He broke away quickly taking the coffee cups from her hands and putting them on the table before kissing her again. He deepened the kiss and brought her in close against him. He put a hand on her cheek and one on her lower back pushing her close. He ran his tongue over her lips asking for entry and she gave it to him moving her hands to his bare back.
Hermione moved her hands to his chest and pushed herself away. This is why she nearly never came back. She'd get this pull in her stomach when she kissed him and she couldn't think straight.
'What's wrong Hermione?' He asked not letting her go.
'Draco.' She said taking a deep breath and looking up at him. 'I had a great time last night.'
'Don't say but, just leave it there.' He said hopefully.
'But' she said 'I've only just split with Ron.'
He sighed 'So?' He asked.
'So,' she said 'I need time to heal. I don't think it would be fair to either of us to start something now.'
He moved away running his hands through his hair. He saw Hermione's face, she looked confused. He followed her gaze to his arm. 'When he died' He paused looking at her 'it started fade after a few months it turned into this scar.'
'I'm sorry I didn't mean….' She bit her lip.
'It's ok.' He moved to her again. He closed his eyes and put his forehead to hers. 'Don't Hermione.' He was aware he was almost begging, but he didn't care he'd tasted her and he didn't want to stop. 'Let's just try. We'll take it slow. We'll have some fun.' He said with a smile, running his thumb along her cheek and looking into her eyes.
'I think it's a bit late for slow after last night.' She almost whispered. 'Don't you?'
'We just broke the ice.' He said with a small smile. He leaned forward and kissed her lightly. He let out a small hum of pleasure escape as he did.
She couldn't help herself, she felt the pull, and she wrapped her arms around his neck and deepened the kiss. She'd never felt like this with Ron. It scared her slightly that Draco could pull her in so easily.
He pulled away panting 'Is that a yes to having some fun?' He asked with a small smile. She was biting her lip like she hadn't quite decided. He used his thumb to free her lip from her teeth.
'Yes' She said no matter how much she tried to deny it she wanted him. So what the hell she'd give it a try. It would probably all blow up in her face.
He grinned wildly at her picking her up, kissing her and sitting her on the table knocking the coffee on the floor. He didn't care.
So much for taking it slow Hermione thought as she lay panting next to Draco in bed. It was early afternoon and they hadn't left the bed after moving from the table this morning. She was sure the coffee was still on the floor. She let a lazy smile spread over her face. She'd never spent the day in bed with Ron, they never had any privacy in the day. She rolled over putting her hand on his chest stroking his abs. He really did have a good body. He snatched her hand up and brought it to his lips kissing her palm.
'I should go soon.' She said.
He rolled over so he was lying on top of her 'why?' he said kissing her.
'Because I need to shower and change.' She laughed.
'Shower here. I'll give you something to wear.' He said against her lips. 'But I prefer you like this.'
She laughed. 'Besides Harry will be worried.'
'Send him an owl' he said trailing kisses along her neck.
He really knew what he was doing and she thought briefly about how many girls he'd been with but quickly pushed it away. She'd only ever been with Ron and the last thing she needed to think about was that.
'Draco.' She laughed.
Then they were disturbed by a knock on the door. Draco was puzzled he didn't think he was expecting anyone. 'Leave it.' He said.
'Draco!' came a shout. 'Are you in there?'
'Shit.' He said. 'It's Blaise. I said I'd go for a drink with him today.' He pulled himself up. 'I'll get rid of him.'
'No.' she said. 'Go out. I need to go home anyway.' She said getting herself up and looking for her underwear and clothes, then she remembered they were in the kitchen. 'Just let me grab my clothes then you can let him in.'
She ran out to grab her things as Draco shouted to Blaise he'll be a minute and pulled on some pants. He watched her run back to the bedroom with a grin. Then answered the door.
'What the fuck Malfoy?' Blaise said pushing his way in.
'Yeah I know sorry.' He said. 'I just need to grab a quick shower. I'll be back in a minute.'
He moved back through to the bedroom. Hermione was there putting her shoes on. She'd put her unruly hair into a bun with a pen. 'You want me to see you out?'
'No.' she blushed. 'I'd rather just aparate from here if that's ok. I'm not ready for people to know.'
'Ok. I understand.' Before she could slip out he pulled her in for a quick kiss. 'Tell me I can see you tomorrow.'
'I don't know' she said.
'I'm not letting you go till you say yes.' He said playfully. 'Let me make you lunch.'
'Ok' she said.
'I'll owl you.' He said letting her leave. He watched her disaparate before shouting to Blaise 'There's beer in the fridge. I'll just be a minute.' He said leaving for the shower.
