"You are so bloody annoying!" Draco Malfoy said as he stomped up the stairs. "I can't believe you made it so bloody hard to find you! Here I am just trying to find my own-"
Hermione had launched herself at the blond, tackling him into a pile of pillows. "I. Can't. Believe. You're. Here," she laid wet kisses all over his face. "We had to do all of the wards Hogwarts would allow. Notice-Me-Not, the usual ones, and a ward that sends those with the Dark Mark away."
"Yes, you're both bloody brilliant," he huffed, gripping her to him more firmly. "Can you add me to them so I don't take two bloody hours to get to you?"
"Two hours!?" Theo howled from the bed. "Malfoy you were Fifth in our class and you've been dating the top two for almost three years! That's embarrassing!"
"Oh fuck off, Theodore. It's been a long day. I couldn't even get away until almost one in the morning," he sighed and she saw how tired he looked. "I do have some news though, if you would let me up, darling."
She pushed herself off of him and held her hand out to help him stand, dragging him to the couch. He sat and she plopped in his lap sighing when his arms went around her.
"Also you two need to open a fucking window, it smells like sex in here," he said with a groan.
"We had to make up for lost time, mi amor," Theo said with a wink as he threw himself on the couch, dragging Hermione's feet into his lap.
"You'd better bloody prepare yourselves…" Draco said heatedly, nuzzling into Hermione's neck. "But now is not the time. I'd like to introduce you to Hogwarts' newest Apprentice Potioneer."
"DRACO!" Hermione shrieked. "You got it!?"
"Well yes, it appears that since the last Potions Master died tragically at the hands of a snake, there was a position open. I'm to start my Apprenticeship with Slughorn on Monday. They have a less reputable teacher coming in for the more unsavoury potions…"
"I know it's not how you wanted it to happen," said Theo, leaning in to kiss him, "but we're bloody proud of you."
"Yes, I'll have to report in once a week, but will have pretty free reign. I think we're going to have to find another spy. There is no way that I will be going on missions or the like, I'm too valuable."
"You are such a prince, Draco Malfoy."
"And you, darling, are a Princess," he said with a smirk, dropping a kiss on the top of her head.
"Ahem!" Theo added. "I'm actually a Lord!"
"Ah yes, my Lord!" Hermione called out, throwing herself into his lap, "Please forgive me for not giving you the attention you deserve. It's just that this exotic Englishman just appeared and-" Draco pulled her back into his lap.
"Exotic, hm?"
She giggled and Theo came to hover over the two of them. "We're so much better together!" he chuckled as he pulled Draco in for a heated kiss.
Hermione loved watching them kiss. The way they moved, Draco, whimpered as Theo bit his lip. Draco's hand wrapped around her waist, gripping her hip, and Theo dropped the hand that wasn't in Draco's hair down to her nipple. When she let out a whine, Theo smirked into the kiss. He stood and turned Hermione's body so that her back was to Draco's front, arse pressed against him.
"Take this off, love," he said, pulling at the jumper. She shirked it as fast as she could and threw it behind them onto the floor. Theo trailed kisses down her neck and collarbone until he got to her nipple that he sucked into his mouth. She threw her head back onto Draco's shoulder who began sucking along her pulse point, marking over the marks that Theo had left earlier.
All of a sudden, Draco groaned. "Fucking Mark!"
"Well if Tom isn't the biggest cock-block around…" said Theo, attempting humour, but falling flat.
Hermione and Theo stood so that Draco could adjust himself and prepare to apparate.
"I need a bit of blood!" she said, "for the wards." He nodded and pricked his finger, dripping it into her conjured vial. "When will you be back?"
"Should be back in the castle for dinner tomorrow. I have an Apprentice Room off of Slughorns, I'll come up after the old boar is asleep," he gritted his teeth, as the Mark called him again. "I have to go. I love you both." he quickly kissed both of them and putting his wand against the Mark apparated away.
"Well that was anticlimactic," Theo huffed.
"Come on, let's go to sleep, I find that I'm not in the mood when Draco is who knows where having who knows what happen to him," she said sadly.
When he'd finally come back up after ten that evening, he looked even more tired than he had in Sixth Year. "He wanted to question my Father and I about Mother. The Order got Mum out, thank Gods. Staged it to look like she'd died and everything, but the Dark Lord wasn't totally convinced."
Hermione paled. "What did he do, Draco?" she asked, pulling him to the bed.
"Run of the mill Cruciatus, Legilimency, a delightful new hex that targets the Dark Mark…" she wrapped her arms and legs around him, knowing from personal experience that pressure helped with the aftershocks of the Cruciatus. Theo slid into the bed on Draco's other side, pulling him to rest on his chest whileHermione spooned him from behind.
"I have to be back in my room by half five," he said softly as he drifted off. "I sleep so much better when you're both here…"
Hermione looked over at his head to Theo who was frowning at the man between them. She tightened her hold on him and tucked her head into his back.
"Vanilla, Coconut, Cloves, Peppermint, and Parchment," Draco murmured in his half asleep state.
"Wouldn't be complete without our Apple and Amberwood," Theo said, pushing the hair off of Draco's forehead.
