Unavoidable Attraction

More lies and detention

Hermione couldn't stop smiling that whole day. She was getting weird looks from everyone who passed her but she didn't care. She felt like she was flying over the moon.

This didn't go unnoticed by her friends. They all stood around her in the common room as she read.

"What are you all staring at?" She asked looking up from her book.

"You are strangely... happy." Ginny said looking over at Neville. "Why?"

Hermione looked around for a minute. "I got a letter from a really good friend." she lied. "They moved to America when we were twelve. It just brought back a lot of really good memories."

"Really?" Ginny asked. "And what's this friends name?"

"Matthew."

"Can I see the letter?"

"Ginny it's personal. Why are you asking all these questions? I don't see any reason for you to be concerned."

"I don't know. It's just weird."

Hermione looked over at the clock then back at Ginny. "I have to get to detention."

"Hermione!"

"Ginny really. I got a good letter today, I've been thinking about my childhood, and about the wonderful years I've had." She stood up and made her way to the portrait hole. "You're just the one who's being weird."

Hermione stepped out of the portrait hole and let out a huge breath. She made her way to the dungeons and knocked on the potions classroom door.

"Come in." She walked in smiling but it quickly faded away when she saw Draco standing by Snape's desk.

"Granger." He said nodding at her slightly.

"Hello Malfoy."

They finished their conversation at a whisper as Hermione sat at a desk running her fingers along the grain of the wood. Malfoy passed her giving her his signature glare before exiting the classroom.

"What was that about?"

"That seems to be none of your business miss granger." He stood and walked around his desk. He grabbed a box full of potion bottles and set them on the desk in front of her. "You will be labeling bottles for me. This box here will be Chelidonium Miniscula. When you reach the next box, let me know."

He returned to his desk and began to write. Hermione stood and crossed behind his desk. She stood to the side of him and he looked up at her. "What do you think you are doing?" He asked.

"I think I deserve something before I start all of this. Something to get me through the box." She smiled and leaned down placing a firm kiss on his lips. She reached her hand up to cup his face and she opened her lips slightly to allow him more access. Their tongues intertwined and a deep groan came from Snape's throat.

Hermione pulled away and smiled. She gave him another quick peck on the lips and went and sat down. She started to label every bottle and when she finished the box, she went to grab the next one.

"That one will be Everklena." He said looking up slightly when she asked what she should write on the next bottles.

"Professor?"

"Hm?"

"I think it's your turn to come to me." He looked up and gave a sly smile. He moved from his desk over to her and took her hands in his. He kissed her gently. He gently massaged her lips with his.

He chuckled when he pulled away and she gave a pouty face. "Get to work. We don't have all night."

She just smiled as he walked back his desk and sat back down.
