Hermione P.O.V.

I really was... Moved. To say the least. Nobody, I mean nobody has done that for me. Especially someone I hardly knew.

I lied in bed, thinking about what had gone down earlier that day.

Draco had carried me up into the new room, hugged me and put me to bed. I couldn't believe it.

Someone who I despised so much in school, has helped me so much these few days. I just was intrigued to say the Least.

I knew that Draco has been through a lot since the war, but because of my hiatus, I haven't really kept in touch with what has happened.

I finally opened my eyes to see that Draco was still asleep. I soundlessly got off the bed and went to take a bath.

I turned on the hot water as it splashed against the plugged tub. I quickly discarded my clothes and added some essential oil as the water reached the perfect height.

I sighed in bliss as the hot water soothed my body once I stepped into the tub. It had been so long since I felt so relaxed. I took a sponge to clean my body as the aroma of lavender filled my nose.

Suddenly, a clicking sound disrupted my relaxation.

A half awake Draco stumbled into the bathroom.

I squealed in shock and did the most practical thing to do at the time.

I threw the sponge at him.

He widened his eyes as he stared at my naked body submerged in water. I held tight to my breasts as he continued eyeing me.

''Get the hell out of the room Draco! Can't you see I'm taking a bath? Merlin's Beard Draco! Stop staring at me and leave!'

'I... Ugh... Am so sorry Hermione... I'll just be waiting outside.'

He closed his eyes and recklessly waddled out of the bathroom. I couldn't help but notice a tent in his pants. I widened my eyes and looked down into the water.

I did that to him? Me, Hermione Jean Granger, a nerdy witch, made Draco Lucius Malfoy, a devishly handsome and muscular wizard, hard?

I stood up from the tub and unplugged the drain. Grabbing a robe, a walked to the sink.

I stared at my features. I looked so different from when I first left. I looked closer and analysed my features.

I had an oval shaped face that had large,almond shaped, brown eyes, high cheekbones and plump, full lips. I had never considered myself beautiful.

I would just focus on other things in life that I thought were important.

In the past, I hated how I looked. My once bushy hair reminded me of a bird's nest. My brown eyes looked like mud. Boring. My old buck teeth were teased about everyday. And don't get me started on being a bookworm.

I just, felt, ugly.

I didn't feel beautiful, I felt unwanted and unappreciated.

A wide smile spread across my face. I don't care what people say about me. The only judgement I care about, is my own. Mine, and mine only.

I walked out of the bathroom, only to see Draco standing next to the bathroom door. He looked... Slightly more awake.

He then did, something I truly didn't expect.
