Slytherdor [Hermoine Granger x Draco Malfoy]

Chapter 7- 'Christmas'

Hermione POV

It was Christmas break at Hogwarts, everyone had gone home for Christmas except for me and Draco.

Harry had gone to stay with Ron for Christmas they'd invited me along, but I'd kindly declined knowing Draco wouldn't go home for the holiday.

I wandered around outside in the courtyard in the snow when I felt someone grab my hips from behind and hoist me up off the ground while spinning me around.

I let out a small yelp than a laugh as I was put back on the ground, I faced Draco and swatted him.

" You scared half to death!" I spoke.
He touched my cheek with his gloved hand.

" You look pretty good for a half dead person" he said with that smile of his which made me melt from inside but I wouldn't let him know how much that affected me, I scoffed and rolled my eyes.

"What do you want suck up?" I asked with a smile.

"Hmm I could think of a few things" he said with a mischievous glint in his eyes.

I shoved him playfully and he just laughed.

"Nah I'm just kidding but would you like to go to Hogsmeade with me? I could really go for some butter beer and sweets" he said.

I laughed, that's one thing I had learned about this boy he had quite the sweet tooth.

"Sure, let's go" I said.

Draco's POV

This wasn't our first date to Hogsmeade, but I still felt just as great as the first time.

The first time I had asked her it took me two weeks to hype myself up to ask her to sneak out and come to Hogsmeade with me.

But when I did, she instantly agreed which I thought was odd cause she never like breaking the rule, but I've learned when it come to me, she's happily break any.

Lord knows we were breaking hundreds of rules just being together but hell, ask me if I care.

As we arrived at Hogsmeade, Hermione and I grabbed butter beer and took a table at the far end of the building.

We talked and laughed when I noticed somebody enter.

My heart and smile instantly dropped.

My father was looking around, no doubt looking for me.

I stood as quickly as I could grabbed Mione and shoved her down the hall into a closet and dove in after her.

I covered her mouth as she started to talk.

" My father's here he can't see us together" I whispered.

I felt her nod and I removed my hand from her mouth.

I was highly aware of how close we were and how quickly I could close the small space between us, but I restrained myself.

I couldn't let my father know we were here.

I heard footsteps but the door that stopped in front of it. I heard Mione take a small sharp breath as we heard my father say something to someone.

"He said they took a seat in the back where could he be?" He snarled.

A female voice responded, "Probably made a run for it with the girl he was said to be seen with." she replied.

I Knew that voice from anywhere. My aunt, Bellatrix.

"I want eyes on this town for the rest of the day and night my boy and I need to have a little chat" Lucius said with a snarl.

We heard his footsteps and Bellatrix's retreat.

"Oh god this is bad!! You're in serious danger and it's all my fault if I'd just fought my feelings, you wouldn't be in this mess" I said pushing my palms into my eyes.

" Draco" she said.

I looked up just as she grabbed my robes and pulled me toward her kissing me passionately.

I twined my hands in her hair and gripped her hip with the other.

She slowly pulled away, "I've got an idea, I've followed Harry and Ron as they've snuck out of the castle there is a passage in the back near Honey Dukes that goes underground we can take that, we split up and I'll meet you there, okay?" She asked.

"Okay" I said. We kissed once more than she opens the closet door and stepped out shutting it with me in it. I sat in there for a little while then left. I walked as fast as I could to Honey Dukes with one thing on my mind- let her be okay.
