I woke up with a smile on my face. The light emitted from the windows and shone on my face, sending me warmth. I dreamt of Draco all night. I couldn't help but smile knowing I still had so much time before the summer school started so I could hangout with Draco. Imagine that! Me, Hermione, excited for something else other than school. That very thought made me laugh aloud.

"Isn't my boyfriend ever so dreamy," teased Ginny.

I giggled. "Oh Ginny, I'm so happy."

"I can tell," Ginny said. "This is the happiest I've seen you ever since..."

I looked at her. "It's ok. You can say it." Ginny stayed silent despite my permission. "Since Ron died.." I finished for her.

Ginny smiled softly. "I that idiot," she said.

"Me too," I answered. "Do you think Ron is ok with all this? I mean, me and Draco?"

"I think that if you're happy, that's all that matters," Ginny said. "And Ron would want you to be happy."

I smiled. "Thank you Ginny."

"Now, chop!" Ginny said, loudly. "Mrs. McGonagall has an announcement for everyone. Let's go!"

I got dressed quickly and got down to the dining hall. There, Draco pulled me into a tight hug. "Morning, Princess," He said.

"Princess?" I giggled.

"Yea, do you not like it?" He asked. "I'm adding to my list of names to call you." He leaned in and kissed my cheek, leaving it warm. I smiled and grabbed his hand, leading us to Gryffindor table.

"Good morning, pupils," Mrs. McGonagall started. "As you know, school will start in 12 days. As a celebration, Hogwarts will hold a ball. A grand ball in just 5 days time. The theme will be Magical Kingdom. Please, wear school appropriate clothings and find your dates. Please be kind. Thank you. Now, please enjoy your breakfast."

Draco and I looked at each other. I waited for him to ask me. "Hermione," He said, "I'm not that hungry. I think I'll go up to my dorm room."

I was left stumped. I know we're together, but he should at least ask for me to go with him. Harry immediately turned to her and asked if she would go to the ball with him. "Yes!!"

*****

I laid on my bed and stared at the ceiling. Why hasn't he asked me? It's been hours. There was a silent knock on the door. "Come in!" I said excitedly. The door opened and Ginny walked in. My smile turned into a slight frown and I fell back into the bed.

"Thought I was Draco?" She teased.

"Ugh, why hasn't he asked me, Ginny?" I complained. "Harry asked you the second he got the chance!"

"Hermione, brighten up!" She said, and handed me a letter. I threw it aside. "Open it!"

I sighed and read the letter.

You were the first girl to ever challenge me. Go to the place where you knocked me into my senses.

"Ginny," I said.

"Go, Hermione!"

I giggled and immediately left after putting on a light sweater. When I arrived, there was another letter taped to the stone were Draco hit his head when I punched him.

You surprised everyone when you descended down the stairs. Beauty never had competition until then.

My heart smiled and I knew immediately where to go next. There was letter left on the stairs when I arrived.

My love for you is growing more everyday. Go to the highest place in Hogwarts.

I immediately ran up the stairs to the astronomy tower where it was filled with balloons. I couldn't see due to the balloons being everywhere. "Draco!" I yelled. I searched and searched until I saw a balloon with a letter tied to it.

Will you be my date to the ball?

I smiled and turned around to find Draco right in front of me. "Well?" He asked.

I giggled. "Yes!" I jumped on him and hugged him. He laughed and put me down. I tiptoed, put my arms around his neck and kissed him. His hands found my hips and we kissed passionately for what felt like a long time. He finally parted his lips from mine, allowing me to breathe.

"You know how to turn a guy on, Granger," he said.

I smirked. "I'm learning."
