Hermione's POV -
Ginny pulled me out of the classroom before Snape could even mutter a single word, and she yelled, "What are you doing?!?!"
I tried playing dumb, even though I knew the effect wouldn't working her, and I was completely right... It didn't. "What do you mean." I ask her, quietly.
Her face scrunches up, and she says "Umm... hello?!?! Picking Draco as your partner? That's so... unlike you. I mean, he's your enemy."
I sigh. "Ginny, I have my reasons. Listen, don't be mad, I know you like him, bu—
She looks really confused for a second, and then she laughs. "Hermione, I'm not mad, in fact I'm really happy. Also, I don't have a crush on Malfoy." She says.
Then she goes up to my ear and whispers "I like Zabini." Then she comes back down to continue talking in a normal voice, and says, "I just found it... odd. That's all. Besides, you hanging around Draco would be perfect, because I would get to hang around Blaise more. I don't really care why you're hanging around him, but, ew gross I do not like him."Then she smirks.
"I know you do though. It's so obvious, especially now."
"What?!?! I do not like Malfoy." I say, while blushing.
"Then how would you explain what you just did in class?" She asks.
I give up. I can't explain that. What am I supposed to say? Someone forced me to kill him, so I need him to fall in love with me!! No I can't say that. Ugh. I face my defeat.
I sigh. "Fine, you got me. I like Malf— I mean, Draco. I've like him since..." I try thinking of a random year... "— since third year."
She smiles. "I knew it!! I mean it was soo obvious! Ahhh!!"
I roll my eyes. "Okay, okay, we should go back to class now."
With that, we head back in, to an enraged Snape glaring at us.
"Ten points from Gryffindor. For both of you." He says.
Everyone that was a Gryffindor in the room groaned, while the Slytherins took in the delight of being ahead of us by twenty points. We were tied. Until now. Ugh.
I went back and sat by Draco. What now? Am I supposed to flirt with him or something? No. If he truly likes me I can just be myself.
"I know why you sat by me, Granger." He said slyly, with a small smirk on his face.
I instantly freeze. He knows. He knows that I'm supposed to kill him... oh no.
"You chose me as your partner, Granger, because you like me." He says, and his smirk grows even bigger.
I breath out a sigh of relief. Oh good, he doesn't know.
Now I have to go back to... whatever this is.
"I do not." I respond back.
"You so do." He says.
"I don't. In fact, I think that you're the one who likes me." I say, beginning to smirk at him.
A deep shade of red begins to take over his face.
"You do, don't you?!?! That's why you're blushing!! Wow... this is your second time today!" I say, giggling.
He looks down, and says "I-I'm not b-blushing... I already told you, I don't blush!!"
———————————————————
Today was a quidditch game between Slytherin and Gryffindor.
As the match began, I sat in the Gryffindor bleachers.
I watched the game, and listened to Luna Lovegood who was speaking gibberish through the microphone. She was supposed to be talking about the game, but I mean, it's Luna...
Towards the end of the game, I saw a flash of the golden snitch. Apparently, Draco saw it as well, because he went flying towards it.
Harry saw Draco go, and he chased after him.
Just as Draco was reaching for it, and was about to grasp it with his hands, a bludger slammed at him with all its might!!
He fell off of his broomstick, and straight down.
I gasped, and ran onto the field, not caring about anything else.
Will Draco be okay?
I mean, not that it really matters....... heh.
—————————————————
Mrs.McGonagall took him to the hospital wing, and I came with her as she did.
"Hermione, we need someone to take care of him. I'm going to be flying out of the country in about an hour, and I need someone to watch him while I'm gone. I'll be leaving for three days. Is that okay with you?"
Three days alone with a Malfoy?
I'm only doing it because I need to...
"Yes, of course." I say, and out of the corner of my eye I think I see a smirking Malfoy. It couldn't be, though, he's unconscious...
"Well, i have to go pack for my tripnow. Here is a list of all the things you need to do, the potions you must give him, where to find them, food, sleeping time, stuff like that. It's all covered, and all on this list. Don't loose it." She says, and leaves me alone with Malfoy.
He opens his eyes, and I roll mine. "I knew you weren't really unconscious." I say.
"Well I know that you like me. You wouldn't have agreed to take care of me for three days if you didn't." He says, grinning like crazy. He looks so cute when he smil— what am I thinking?!?!
"N-no. I did it because she asked me, and I'm a good student, that's all. I did it so that my reputation would be... be good?" I say, trying to make my words sound believable.
"Sure. But I call BS. Granger has a crush on me, that's what I say."
I walk over to his bed, and place me arms on the end of it.
"Do not." I reply.
"Do too." He says.
"Do not."
"Do too."
"Do not!!" I start to speak louder.
"Do not!" He says
"Do too!!" I say back, and when I realize what I said it was too late. He started laughing. He should laugh more... The look suited him.
"Okay, okay, its time to go to bed, Malfoy."
I get a blanket from the cabinet, and place it over him.
I go up to him, and he looks deeply into my eyes, and smiles. I smile back.
I break our little moment, and say, "good night, Draco." and go into the bed next to his.
After a little while of thinking, I finally doze off.
