Chapter 3

Just then, Draco's eyes popped wide open, staring certainly into Hermione's. She could sense there was something brewing behind those placid eyes. An anticipation of a confirmation. It shocked Hermione to realise she was staring at eyes filled with lust. They were her own, reflected in Draco's. Mirrored. The same. It ignited a flame. One she didn't quite know what it was but it was definitely exciting.

He reached up to Hermione's head and pulled her down to meet his readily parted lips. Hermione was in shock. Lips parted in surprise now crushed against Draco's eager ones. Then it happened. A match lit in a gas chamber. An explosion took place within Hermione she couldn't stop it happening even if she knew it was coming. She kissed him back.

Her hands wound around as much as she could of Draco's head as if to push him closer. As impatient as they both were, each was savouring the other knowing nothing like this had ever happened before. Two mutual enemies locked together in a heated frenzy unbeknownst of the whys or how's. All that existed was the other.

Hermione's hands worked their way into Draco's hair, tugging and gently soothing. Moving her hands down to his neck and resting on his chest, neither noticing she'd become unstuck and both certainly beyond caring. Draco was frantic. He wanted to touch her, to taste her skin, to see if she really was a soft as he'd imagined.

"Geez who knew you could be so hot!" Draco mumbled against Hermione's desperately searching lips before they travelled down his neck. Suddenly, she stopped. She sat up and looked down at Draco, his eyes as unsure as a child's as if to say 'Please don't go'.

"Oh so you don't think I'm up to it huh?" Hermione purred surprising not only Draco but herself. "Well look at the tickets you have on yourself! You think you're so good?" A questioning eyebrow lifts. "I don't think you're man enough."

"What?" Draco replied. The mood was shattered, flipped on its side, covered in cinnamon and flung over a rainbow. Never before has a woman has ever stopped kissing him let alone questioned his manhood. "You probably wouldn't even know a real man if he was lying between your legs." Just at that moment Draco pushed his already engorged sex up against her soft, wet centre. Hermione gasps as he comes into contact with her most sensitive area making her wonder how she could have ever thought he wasn't up to it.

"Well then I guess I'll just have to let you know when I find one." Find new determination she responded in kind by tightening her thighs and squeezing Draco's waist wedging his manhood between their bodies, driving him to fever pitch. A growl erupted from his throat as he ripped open Hermione's shirt, exposing her enticing bra and heaving breasts, almost to the point of falling out. As their lips thrust back together in a fusion of passion and lust, their clothing became the last barrier before the kiss was broken once more. Or so they thought.

Hermione slowed her kiss and Draco realised she was hesitating. It confirmed what he originally believed. That Hermione was a virgin. The front up until now was all a show, just for him. It just made him want her all the more. He rolled them over so he was on top, hands either side of her face.

"It's okay you know. If you don't want to." Draco said hoping to calm her a little.

"No no I do it's just, well I've never actually been with anyone before. And you, you're all confident and cocky and well, really…big and I know it'll hurt but you're massive and I don't think it'll fit and-" Hermione was cut from her ramblings abruptly as Draco slammed his mouth down on hers.

"You know what? You talk too much. It'll be okay Hermione." And with that, he kissed her. Softly, and with that note he entered her. The pain was intense but fleeting, carving the path for the crescendo to come. Palms joined, fingers clutched, lips were bitten. The fervour rose to heights that when the time came for them to climax, it was a quivering eruption so fierce Hermione cried out Draco's name and clutched his back, leaving neat half moon crescent tattoos.

The trembling was equally matched in both partners. A competition to reach the final peak so excruciatingly blissful the journey became one with the destination. After each body had finally settled into a calm reprieve, Hermione lifted her head from Draco's chest to look into his eyes. Checking it was still real. Checking the face of the body to which she just made love to. As she looked up into his eyes she saw satisfaction smiling back at her.

"Nice. For someone who didn't know what to do you did…very, very well Ms Granger." Draco said whilst sliding a piece of Hermione's loose hair behind her ear.

"Hmmm. You didn't do too bad yourself Mr Malfoy. Although I don't have any comparison it was still pretty amazing." She replied and suddenly blushed after realizing how over-romantic she sounded. Still giddy from making love, Hermione began to giggle. Her tight little body shaking on top of Draco arousing his body again in the most primal way.

"Hey, we're not stuck to the floor anymore." Draco noted some time later, before anything could intensify.

"Oh I guess you're right." Hermione replied, dampened by his coolness. They both got up and retrieved their clothing, slowly and not looking at one another. As they finish dressing themselves, a small sliver of light is visible beneath a door in the far corner of the dark room, it was dawn.

As they both reach the door, Hermione turns and looks fleetingly at Draco before hastily looking away.

As they get outside, Hermione once again turns towards Draco and with palpable reluctance begins to talk.

"Look Draco, I well, I don't really know what to say-" she began before being awkwardly cut off.

"Wow. I really made the princess Head Girl speechless? Go me." Draco responded jokingly.

"What I was going to say before being rudely interrupted was 'thank you' but I can see that's beyond your aptitude for being human." She replied and began storming off towards her small dark alcove where her books were from last night. It seemed so long ago she had made that shattering decision to turn back.

Draco caught up with her swiftly, catching her by the arm and turning her gently. He could see her shining eyes brimming with unshed tears and felt an immediate and stabbing pang of remorse. She obviously wasn't used to this.

"Look I'm sorry okay. I was only joking. I just…It's just really hard for me to…Well you know, umm...I just wanted to tell you that…" Draco began, wringing the back of his neck with his free hand.

"What? What are you saying Draco? I will listen." Hermione said turning to face him now.

"I just wanted to let you know that I'm not a death eater." He mumbled softly into the air, almost afraid of being overheard. "I don't regret last night and I don't want you to either. But I don't know how to do this alright?" Draco admitted, slightly horrified at how sentimental he sounded.

"How to do what?" she asked, curious as to the cause of his discomfort but still in shock from his admission.

"Be you know, nice and friendly. And talkative. Can't we just go back to bed?" he shrugged looking back up and into her eyes with a cheeky grin.

Blushingly Hermione replied "You mean you want to go to bed with me? Again?"

"Of course I do! I wasn't lying when I said you did well. You did great." He said, stepping closer to her and joining their hands dropping a soft kiss on her trembling lips. "Although next time we'll have to get you on a bed, at least to start with. Maybe green sheets. Have you ever thought about getting a tattoo?"

"What?! Draco you just love wrecking moments don't you? First this morning and just now-" Hermione began but the end of the sentence was never heard by the two people standing just around the corner, as the couples affectionate joking faded down the hall.

"And you said bickering never leads to anything good, Minerva." Dumbledore laughed with a twinkling in his eyes and a grin just as surprised.
