Bellatrix pulled Hermione to a stop, catching the brunettes attention.
"What's the matter-" Hermione barely finish her sentence when a loud crack filled her ears and her stomach began to turn.

The pair landed in what Hermione recognised as Bellatrix's chamber.
"You're not very good on your feet are you?" Bellatrix looks at the girl who'd staggered nearly falling to her knees, if it wasn't for the hand that gripped her.
"A little warning next time!" Hermione glared at the smirking witch.
"Now where's the fun in that." Bellatrix left the girl go. Hermione glared at the witch as she brushes herself off. The brunette recognised her surroundings, she was in Bellatrix's chambers.
The witch herself caught Hermione's attention as she sauntered to her bedroom.
"Where are you going?"

Bellatrix stops, looking over her shoulder
"For a shower." She smiles before continuing her walk.
Hermione watches her as she disappears through the door. Hermione swallows licking her lips, and before she knew it her legs had carried her inside the woman's bedroom and she stood just outside the bathroom door. She could hear the running water of the shower and the girl took a deep breath. Hermione turned around and started towards the bed when the bathroom door opened
"Oh." Bellatrix said slightly surprised that the girl had indeed followed her, she half expected the girl to be making tea in the kitchen or something.
Hermione turned to look at the woman
"What, surprised I followed?"
"Well, I suppose I shouldn't be, after all you've proven on more than one occasion you're quite...unfathomable..."
"Unfathomable?"
"Yes, I'm usually able to read people exceptionally well, and yet...you always seem to surprise me."
"Is that so?" Hermione smirks, Bellatrix narrows her brows.
"Mm"
"I suppose I do like to keep people on their toes...keep them guessing." Hermione smiles.
Bellatrix studies the girl for a moment, she definitely wasn't the shy little mouse she expected, then again she wasn't expecting this to happen either, she only had intended on toughening the girl up to defend herself in the real world, not to become...fond of her.

"You're not exactly predictable either." Hermione closes the distance between the woman.
"Oh?" Bellatrix averts her attention to brown eyes watching as they grow closer.
"I definitely wasn't excepting you to be soo..."
"Undeniably attractive" Bellatrix smirks.
"I was going to say adorable, but you're definitely not wrong about the attractiveness."
"I am not adorable!" Bellatrix frowns. The girls stops just in front of Bellatrix.
"You kinda are, especially when you pout." She grins pinching her cheek.
"I am not! Nor do I pout!" Bellatrix slaps her hand away, and Hermione just chuckles.

Bellatrix growls crossing her room to pick up her black silk robe.
Hermione smirks as she watches the pouting woman aggressively pick up her robe and march back towards the bathroom.
That was until Hermione stopped her in her tracks.
"Move." Bellatrix growls, frowning at the girl stood before her.
"Nope."
"What do you mean nope!"
"What I said, nope." Hermione smirks before pulling the woman in for a kiss.
Bellatrix gave in for a moment before quickly pushing the girl away.
"Stop it." She narrows her eyes, Hermione's smirk only widens as she pulls the woman in for another kiss. Bellatrix growls, though didn't pull away this time. She did try to stay mad at the girl, staying mad at people was usually pretty easy but this girl wasn't playing fair.

"You don't play very fairly little girl." Bellatrix pulls back slightly, giving both witches chance to catch their breath.
"Are you sure I'm the little girl?" Hermione wraps her arms around the woman's waist.
"I am taller than you."
"I'd watch your tongue Granger, I'm exceptionally good at unforgivables." Bellatrix warns, her hands coming to rest on the girl's neck, where she drags her nails against the exposing skin.
"Oh I don't doubt that for a minute." Hermione winks.
"You're becoming awful confident Granger..."
"Yes well I Think you have something to do with that, you and your teasing little games."
" I've created a monster."
Hermione smirks, " afraid you can't handle me?"
Bellatrix Chuckles, " Oh believe me sweetheart you are the one who should be afraid. I can be very, very difficult, you haven't even seen a quarter of me yet."
"Then I look forward to it." Hermione smiles.
"You say that now...but just wait, you'll be running for the hills."
"Try me." Hermione meets Bellatrix's gaze, trying to look for the bubble of emotions hidden behind her swirls of brown.

Hermione smiles at the witch, "whilst you try to comprehend I have no intention of leaving you, let me see to that leg of yours."
Bella frowns, "It's fine."
Hermione places a lingering kiss on the woman's lips, "Just humor me, besides you did promise."
Bellatrix growls at the witch as she moved to kneel in front of her. Bella summoned a chair and took a seat as Hermione carefully moved some of the fabric that stuck to the wound out of the way. Hermione winces, "It looks pretty nasty Bella, how can you walk on it?"
"It's fine, just get that stuff from my cupboard, you know the drill by now." Hermione sighs following the orders of the bossy witch.
Hermione cleaned the wound then applied the stuff, looking up to meet Bella's gaze.

"I need a shower." Bellatrix said once again making her way towards the bathroom, swallowing slightly as she heard footsteps behind her.
Bellatrix turns to look at the brunette, her brow arched questioningly at the girl.
"Well I need a shower too, and I figured it would be such a shame to waste water."
"What have I created." Bellatrix chuckles, shaking her head at the girl.
Hermione grins taking a step closer towards the woman.
"I could help you get undressed" Hermione offers.
"I'm more than capable of undressing myself, you just focus on yourself. Oh and for the record, I like my shower incredibly hot so if you don't like it...tough." Bellatrix smiles, placing her robe on the chair.

Hermione began to undress herself however her eyes drifted over towards the dark woman.
Swallowing deeply as more and more smooth silky porcelain skin was revealed.
Bellatrix tensed slightly when she caught the girl staring at her, you wouldn't think it but Bellatrix wasn't as confident as she made out to be, truth be told she was quite insecure but did her best to cover it, for she could not show weakness! Weakness was not an option.

Bellatrix quickly got in the shower releasing a satisfied breath as the boiling water hit her skin. She closed her eyes enjoying the feeling of the burning liquid running down her body, she began to relax slightly, however she soon began to tense when she felt the presence behind her.

Hermione definitely could not deny the woman's beauty, she reminded Hermione of a beautiful porcelain doll. Her eyes ran over the woman's body and definitely liked everything she saw.

Bellatrix reached for the flannel and soap about to wash herself down when she felt light fingers running against her skin. She tenses completely at the gentle touch.
"Bella..." Hermione whispers and without thinking she reached out and ran her fingers along Bella's bare smooth back.
Soon Bellatrix began to relax, she even leaned into the touch much to Hermione's delight.

Hermione smiles at the reaction she received from the other witch, as her little hum began turning into a catlike purr. The woman closes her eyes enjoying the attention from the brunette.
"You're so beautiful" she whispers, her lips grazing Bella's ears.

Bella's eyes opens as she turns around to face Hermione.
"Excuse me?" Bella looks into her eyes, searching them for sincerity or lies.
"I said you're beautiful" Hermione repeats, a smile forming on her lips. Bellatrix furrows her brows, the girl appeared to be telling the truth. Bellatrix was caught of guard when lips crashed against hers however made no effort to push the girl away, she began kissing Hermione back when she felt hands gripping her hair. She tenses slightly waiting to have her head yanked back aggressively and having to defend herself, however that did not happen.
Hermione's hands were relatively gentle against her long black locks.
"Do you want me to stop?" Hermione asks sensing the woman tense, however the woman's arms around her neck soon answered that question.
Hermione grinned into the kiss finding herself overwhelmed by this woman who's lips were so addictive.

After a while Bellatrix ended it and made it clear she wanted a wash, and Hermione although wanting more did not argue with the witch, instead she did exactly as Bellatrix asked.

After they showered the pair changed into pyjamas.
Bella wore a black nighty covered by her silk robe and Hermione borrowed a long red nighty.
Hermione climbed into the woman's bed making sure she was not on the side Bellatrix slept on, she made that mistake before.
Bellatrix took off her robe and climbed in beside Hermione warning the girl to stick to her side. However throughout the night Bellatrix did not stick to her own rule.
