Ten

Draco heard Hermione talking to herself, he felt guilty knowing she didn't know he was listening, but he enjoyed listening to her stories.

"when I punched you, I felt great, but when I returned to my dormitory I felt bad.  You never really teased me except for mudblood and stuff, but I realized you were just following your parents model.  I mean from day one I swore I would hate you, and you did the same.  IT was fun to tease you, when I was younger at least.  But when we got older, you became less persistent in bullying.  I have to admit, in the year Ron was with lavender, I was no longer attracted to Ron. I would stare at you in class when you were in front of me.  I didn't know why. I became nervous when the amortentia potion smelled similar to you.  I started having dreams about you, but I simply shrugged them off.  Its funny, know we are trying to convince everyone we are dating.  which isn't that bad.  Your company is actually decent. I'm afraid I've fallen for you Draco.  But oh god if you knew.  You tease me about it all the time, and I don't know if you just like embarrassing me, or truly like me too, and are just to cocky to admit it." Hermione stopped when Madame promfey walked in. 

"hello Hermione, he should be ready to leave when he wakes up.  I've already healed his hand, and he will be as good as new."

"thank you!" Draco heard her all to friendly voice say. 

Draco felt Hermione take his better hand, hers was soft and delicate.  He would rather she kiss him again, he almost smiled thinking of her soft gentle lips on his.  But she was right.  He would never admit to her first that he liked her.  He wanted to hear her say it, right to his face, even though she technically already did. 

"Draco." she whispered.  She shook him slightly, trying to wake him.

His eyelids opened slowly, welcomed by her smiling face.

"Granger! what are you doing here?  You know we aren't actually dating."

"Well I wanted to see for myself that Draco Malfoy actually burnt his hand.....putting a log in the fireplace the muggle way.....why I never thought he could do anything with out his wand." She smiled.

"oh shove it, don't get used to being the one to tease me, in my poor state too!"

"here!" she held his wand in front of him, but before he could grab it, she ran away out of the hospital wing laughing as she ran.

Draco jumped out of bed running after her "Granger!"

He followed her all the way down the corridor.  He finally caught up to her and grabbed her from behind.

She screamed, and started laughing.  He quickly scooped her up over his shoulder and started to carry her.

"where are you taking me!" she demanded still laughing.

"calm down granger, I'm just going to teach you not to take my wand ever again!"  he chuckled. 

Hermione noticed the eyes on them, as  people watched them, giving confused looks.

"your causing a scene!" Hermione whispered.

He took her all the way out the front doors of the castle. 

"Draco Malfoy! put me down now!"  she was quite concerned on where they were going. 

"If you insist!"  she felt herself being thrown backwards.  she quickly felt emerged in coldness, and swam upwards for air.

she gasped as she came up.  He had thrown her in the black lake! and was now laughing on the bank.  while he was having a laughing fit she grabbed his wrist pulling him in with her.
