Something Real {Dramione} (#Wattys2017)

Chapter 4: Morning Showers

Hemione woke up early after a pleasant nights rest. The sun was beginning to creep in the windows. She looked around the room gathering in my surroundings. At first, her heart jumped but then calmed down realizing where She was. Even though they had been here for a week, she would still wake all dazed and confused.

She struggled but finally turned to her bedside table and checked the clock. 7:00. Breakfast was at 8:30 and lessons started at 9:00.

She slowly pulled herself out of bed and gathered her soap and toiletries to store in the bathroom.

She walked over to the door and into the joined bathroom. Draco's door was still closed so she decided to go ahead and wake him up to let him know that she was going to shower.

"Draco?" She called, knocking gently on the door. "Draco?" She called again. After waiting a few moments, there was still no shuffling to be heard, so she pulled on the knob and let herself in.

His blinds were closed preventing the sunlight in. Though some light had peaked through and shine on his pale sunken cheeks.

He was buried under his blankets. His face was relaxed and his eyes shut. Hermione softly laid a hand on his shoulder and shook him slightly. "Draco it's time to get up" She said and earned a grunt and he started to stir. He opened his eyes and flinched away from her touch.

Sitting up quickly he scowled at her. "Hermione what are you doing in here?" He said watching her carefully.

   "I wanted to let you know that it's time to get up. I'm going to take a quick shower. And then you can go." She said eyeing his face and glancing down at his state of undress.

   "Okay." He said gruffly getting out of bed. He was only in red boxers. His chest was bare and toned. She blushed at the sight of him and his eyes wandered over to her as he moved throughout the room.

   "Hermione go take your shower so I can get in." He said dismissing the flushed girl. As he continued to hunt for clothing.

Hermione quickly hurried out of his room and shut the door to his side of the bathroom.

She stripped off my clothing and folded it and laid it on the counter. She got a towel and laid it on the floor next to the shower and turned on the water that turned warm instantly. She hurried to get in the shower immediately, not wanting to waste water.

The water was so wonderful and refreshing. She lathered up the soap in my hair and rinsed it out and then washed he body.

Making sure that she had rinsed out all the soap, she turned off the water and got out of the shower and wrapped herself up in the fluffy green towel. Storing away all of her soaps, she went over to Draco's door and knocked. It swung open.

"It's your turn." She said shivering from the sudden rush of air. He had his uniform laid out on his bed and had his toiletries laid out as well.

He looked her up and down and he smirked. "Green? I like that on my women." He said in his husky morning voice. She blushed and held the towel tighter to her body. "Oh shut up Draco" she said trying to sound confident.

Of course he was hot, but he's still that womanizer he was before. Okay well I don't know if he was a womanizer before but those were rumors.

Hermione  turned and walked back to her room. Feeling irritated, and lightheaded, she closed the door and got dressed. She slid on a fresh pair of underwear and a plain bra. And put on her school shirt and skirt. She found her knee socks and shoes and put those on. She tucked her shirt into her skirt than looked for her tie.

Hermione's POV

Grabbing my tie I walked back to the bathroom and knocked on the door. He opened it. His chest was bare and a towel hung on his hips. Water droplets covered him and dripped from his platinum blonde hair. I took a sharp in take of breath and focusing on his face.

"Are you done?" I asked looking past him into the bathroom. He moved out of the way and let me in.

The bathroom was hot and sticky and had a hint of green apple. "Oh and you left your clothes in here" Draco said and quickly walked into his room and shut the door without a word.

I was left looking in the mirror at my fogged face. I bushed my teeth and put on some foundation and a little eyeliner.

I started pulling my curls hair back out of my face when he suddenly pulled open the door. He walked in and looked me up and down with blank eyes.

He was already dressed and had his shoes on. He then turned and started bushing his teeth and then worked on his tie.

After I finished taming my mane, I started to work on my tie as well. My fingers shook and I couldn't do it. I gave a frustrated grunt as I continued to tug on the red and gold fabric. So heard a chuckle and Draco stepped closer to me.

"May I?" He asked. I made a small nod, my cheeks blushing. I dropped my hands to my side and he reached up to my neck.

We were inches apart. I looked up at him studying his face. He had creases on his forehead as he focused. His nose was thin. His lips we full and were parted slightly. I could feel his breath on my face and smell the spearmint with every exhale.

I looked down at his hands as he pulled the tie through the last loop. I look up and our eyes meet. My legs turn to jelly and my eyes feel like they are going to fall out. "Um...thank you" I stutter. He take one look at me, nods and pulls away and goes back to his room and closes the door.
