Behind closed doors.

~Chapter one:~

~Hermione's Pov:~
The cold rain tumbled down outside, beating against the compartment window; and as I watched it, I thought over what had happened in the last few months. Ron still tried to get into my pants despite me saying no, for I wasn't interested in him in the way people assumed I was.  But Harry and Ginny were stronger than ever, causing slight jealousy to course through me, because I knew the one person I have loved for years, could never be with me because of my blood, or he wasn't interested...

The door slid open and I couldn't help but look up to see the piercing grey eyes of Draco Malfoy. He ignored his friends just as I did, for I was lost in his eyes. But as I forced myself to look away I took in what he was wearing, and when my eyes snapped back to his I saw just how dark they were. I licked my lips in anticipation and slowly looked away just as Harry said they could sit in here.

Malfoy sat before me watching me intently; and I blushed as he did so before I slowly grabbed my book before I began to read, but the words never stuck in my mind for the gaze he had on me, still lingered; burning into my soul to see what I desired. "Hey Draco." Pansy purred as she ruined the situation, I wish he took control of. "What?!" He snapped, scaring everyone around us. But her look turned sad for a few seconds before it vanished. After that they started to shout and but the next bit surprised me... "I'd rather kiss Granger than you!" We all froze and both me and Pansy spoke. "Wh...what?" Draco smirked "yeah that's right I'd rather kiss Granger than you." Her face hardened into one of pure anger. "I don't believe you." The next bit surprised me so much, I felt like this was a dream.

Draco Malfoy would never have kissed me, but he did, and he was and, I felt once again the rush of helplessness, the sinking yielding, the surging tide of warmth that left me limp. And the quiet face of Draco's was blurred and drowned to nothingness. He bent back my head across his arm and kissed me, softly at first, and then with a swift gradation of intensity that made me cling to him as the only solid thing in a dizzy swaying world. His insistent mouth was parting my shaking lips, sending wild tremors along my nerves, evoking from my sensations I had never known I was capable of feeling. And before a swimming giddiness spun me round and round, I found he had pulled away leaving me breathless but wanting more. I sat down beside Ginny and Harry blushing hard trying to stop the world from spinning so quickly.

Pansy looked at me in shock before she left storming away, and when she was out of sight everyone turned to me. "I..." Ginny giggled besides me and I smacked her. "Dude I think you took her breath away." Blaise spoke, causing both me and Draco to blush before kicking him the leg. "Ow dudes that hurt." Draco rolled his eyes. "Stop being a baby." Blaise placed hand to his heart. "I'm insulted." Draco fought the smile that was threatening to grace his lips...

When the train pulled into the station, none of us mentioned the kiss and thankfully Pansy said nothing but I think that because she was too busy planning something big as payback. But now I decided not think about. Its best not to worry on something until it happens.

The sorting passed quite quickly and so did dinner but when it came to the feast I sensed some thing bad would happen, so much so I questioned Harry who agreed with me.

But my suspicions were confirmed when Kingsley entered with several ministry officials walking to very shocked teachers. "This really can't be good." Pavarti spoke sadly besides me. "Agreed." And just as the words left my lips Dumbledore sent the first to the sixth years away.

Once the sound of the footsteps disappeared Kingsley spoke. "Now that they have left we will now tell you of the new law." And that was it, my heart dropped in my stomach.
