"Blaise if this is about the argument before, forget it. I know you're not as mean as you pretend to be."

"Well as much as I wish I had pulled you into this room for an apology, that was not the reason. Draco is heartbroken over what just happened and only you can convince him otherwise."

"Why is he upset? He did nothing wrong. Of course he has appearances to keep up. I know he still loves me."

"Well I tried to tell him that and he wouldn't listen. He thinks you won't forgive him,"

"Ok Zabini, I have to go change and then I'll meet you on the third floor by the library. I'll need you to take me to him,"

"That may me difficult Granger, given that he's holed up in the dormitory and will not let any of the other boys in other than me."

"Well I'll take care of that now just meet me in 20 minutes," she said as she rushed out of the room and to the Gryffindor Tower.

She approached the portrait and told the Fat Lady the password. She ran into Lavender who was on her way to dinner.

"Hey Hermione. You don't look too good."

"Hey Lavender. Yeah I think I'm coming down with a stomach bug. I'm probably going to just go to bed. Hopefully some sleep will help."

"Oh well feel better. I'll talk to you in the morning then" Lavender said as she made her way out of the common room. Hermione went up the stairs to her dormitory, charmed her covers so it looked like she was asleep, and headed into the bathroom. She changed into some jeans and a sweater. She reached into her bag and pulled out green contacts. She placed them into her eyes and blinked a few times, letting them set into place. Next she waived her wand and made her hair dark brown. Lastly, she put on a pair of fake glasses and some dark lipstick.

Before she left, she grabbed one of Draco's cloaks that she would sleep with when she missed him. She put her hood up and quickly walked out of the dormitory, hoping no one had seen her. She walked to the library, and spotted Zabini. She walked up to him and grinned.

"Granger? You sure do look like a slytherin."

"Yes Zabini that is the point."

"Well right this way. Now who do I say you are? My girlfriend? A new student?" Zabini asked, as he walked with Hermione to the dungeons.

"Zabini I could not care less what you tell people. Just take me to Draco. And make sure people stay out of the room. I don't want to keep this disguise on for long."

"I have to say Granger, I do miss your brown eyes. These green ones do not suit your personality,"

Hermione scoffed. "Thanks so much Blaise." Blaise grinned and said the password, entering the common room with Hermione in tow. Since most people were still at dinner, it wasn't a problem for the two to sneak in unnoticed. Blaise led Hermione to the dormitory and opened the door.

She stepped inside and saw all the notes she had sent to her boyfriend lined up on his nightstand. Blaise closed the door behind her and left the two alone. She waved her wand and her hair returned to its normal color. She took off the glasses and ripped the contacts out of her eyes.

Draco was sitting on his bed with his head on his knees, clutching his head. Hermione sat down and caressed his cheek, lightly stroking it. He picked his head up and saw her, pulling away. "What are you doing here," he asked, a tear rolling down his cheek.

"I was informed that you thought I wouldn't forgive you," Hermione said looking at the boy she loved.

Draco, still looking down, continued. "I'm sure you have begun to hate me. I'm a horrible person. You deserve better," he said as he continued to cry. Hermione's heart hurt seeing him in pain. She cradled his head in her arms and ran her fingers through his hair.

"I don't want you to think that something so stupid would make me lose the love I have for you. I love you so much. Ok?"

He smiled softly and looked up at her. "The thought of you being hurt breaks my heart. I would never say those things to you ever again. I was just so afraid to lose you that I was about to scream at Parkinson."

Hermione smiled and leaned down to kiss him. He kissed her back gently and pulled away. Draco got up and grabbed an extra blanket from his trunk. He wrapped the blanket around Hermione and pulled her into his arms. He hugged her for a few minutes, kissing her head softly. She snuggled into his arms, leaning up to kiss him some more.

As their snogging intensified, Draco began to remove Hermione's top and grazed his hands along her body. She shivered under his touch and moved closer to him. She pulled away and grinned. "Why is it that you always take my shirt off?" She asked.

"I like it when you snuggle into me." he said looking at her with a blush on his cheek. She giggled and kissed him again, his arms encircling her waist and lightly grazing her back.

Blaise walked into the room and laughed. The two moved apart with Hermione snuggling in Draco to hide herself. "Didn't mean to interrupt. And Granger by all means, stay the night. I'm sure this sorry soul could use it." He said grinning. Hermione laughed and looked at Draco with a smile.

"I would love to stay. Thanks Blaise."

"Ok well I'm going to leave you alone for a little more time. Happy snogging," he joked as he stepped out of the room.

Draco shook his head and kissed Hermione's forehead. "I guess that's 2 nights in a row of sleeping together. Be careful or you won't be able to resist"

"Of course. You and your charm," she joked as she sat up.

"Now let's get you out of those jeans," Draco said standing up and opening his wardrobe.

"You'd like that wouldn't you?" Hermione responded sarcastically. Draco turned and made a face, throwing a t-shirt at her. She caught it and put it over her head. She stood up and took off her jeans and slid back into the bed. Draco laid down next to her and wrapped his arms around her. "I'm seriously going to get too used to this,"

"Me too. This is spoiling me."

"It very unfortunate that we cannot see each other more often." Hermione said with a frown as she turned to look at him. He kissed her cheek and held her close.

"I love you. I'm thankful I get to spend time with you," he said with a whisper.

"I wish we could do more together."

"Well I have a surprise for you on Friday."

"Well I can't wait to see what it is."

"In time, dear grasshopper" Draco said. Hermione laughed and moved against him, settling in and finding her spot. In a few moments, she fell asleep.

Blaise walked into the room, watching Draco looking at Hermione with so much love in his eyes. "I still can't believe you found this girl and managed to keep her,"

"Yeah I can't either. And I can't believe she loves me," he said with a smile, kissing her forehead softly.

"I'm glad you found someone to love mate. It looks good on you," Blaise said as he laid down on his bed. Draco grinned and threw a pillow at him.

"Zabini, you're a good friend."

"I'm aware. Now go to sleep. You've got a beautiful girl in your arms and you're talking to me."

"Oh shut up. Good night" Draco said shaking his head slightly. Hermione curled into him further, soaking up all his warmth.
