The unseasonal warmth of the night's air pressed down on the ancient castle. While most of the staff and students had retired for the evening, Draco sat alone in silence, shadowed by the tall stone walls of an alcove in the Hogwarts library. He observed from a distance as Granger removed her robe, draping the cloth over a nearby wooden stool. The Gryffindor witch turned and headed for the nearest bookshelf. Spotting the tome for which she searched nestled high above, she stood on her toes reaching to grasp it. As she stretched, her grey skirt rode up her supple thighs and Draco watched as the back of her long legs became exposed under the candle light. Feeling himself stiffen uncomfortably in his pants, he reached down to grasp firmly at his throbbing cock. Groaning quietly, he decided tonight would be the night, he needed to tell Granger how he truly felt. Draco stood, adjusted his pants as to obscure his sizeable erection and resolutely strode towards the bushy haired witch.

Granger hearing his approach pivoted on the spot. Wide eyed she dropped the book had she held to cover her mouth, stifling the startled gasp that escaped her lips. Seizing the opportunity, Draco took one last step towards her closing the distance between them. Sensing her desire to escape, he swiftly placed a hand either side of her head, caging her against the shelf.

Looking up at the wizard towering before her Granger demanded, "What the hell Malfoy?"

"I can't do this anymore." Draco admitted.

Her brow creased as she queried, "Do what Malfoy? What are you talking about?"

Draco exhaled deeply, "I can't pretend anymore. Pretend that I hate you, that I think less of you. You are bloody brilliant and beyond beautiful. For the longest time I have watched you, desired you, never able to tell you the truth."

If he wasn't mistaken he had seen her breath hitch is her throat as he spoke. His gaze wandered from her deep chocolate brown eyes, down her freckled nose to rest on her plump, pink lips. Craving their touch, Draco removed his hand from the bookshelf. Slowly he traced her jawline with lightest of touches. Reacting to his caress, Granger began to gnaw gently at her bottom lip. Reaching up he swept the pad of his thumb across where her teeth had been.

"Oh, fuck it!" Draco exclaimed as he reached around, spreading his fingers through the curls of hair at the nape of her neck. Pulling her forward he crashed his lips down upon hers with the full force of his passion.

For the longest moment Granger remained motionless, her mouth taught against his. Just as Draco began to consider pulling away, he felt her tension melt under him. A small smirk crossed his features before he boldly swept the tip of his tongue across her upper lip. Responding to his request for entry her lips parted, wasting no time Draco deepened the kiss in earnest.

He felt Granger's finger tips brush tentatively against his chest, before trailing down his abdomen and circling to the small of his back. Feeling the pressure of her palms firmly against his back Draco swiftly closed the gap between them. The nipples of her perk breasts hardened against his chest causing Draco to expel a stifled groan. Instinctually he ground his pelvis forward into hers. As his arousal pressed against her, Granger released a low, sensual moan. Releasing her lips from his, he kissed along her jaw line before sucking greedily at the pulse point of her neck. Granger arched her back while tilting her chin upwards, exposing more of her long, slender neck to his ministrations.

As his lips reached the crook of her neck she moaned his name, "Mmm-Malfoy."

Draco felt Granger's hands leave the small of his back, though before he could protest they came to rest at the back of his neck. Momentarily her fingers toyed with his blonde hair before sliding down his shoulders to remove his robes. Reluctantly he released his hold on the Gryffindor witch, allowing the garment to fall to the floor. Swiftly he cradled her head in his hands once more as his lips met hers. Deepening their kiss Draco could feel her nimble fingers unfasten the buttons of his shirt one by one. As Granger's finger tips explored the ridges of his naked abdomen a soft whimper escaped her lips. He fought to retain his composure as she traced the lines of his Adonis belt downward and began to tug at the fastening of his pants.
