Month Sixty-Two Challenge: Just A Game

Game, Set, Match
"Oh come on, Draco," Hermione said, smiling. "It's just a game."

Draco slouched down in his chair, hiding his eyes behind the too-long fringe. Moments passed, and Hermione became worried that he was too fragile to handle even a loss in a silly Wizarding game.

"It's just beginners luck," she said softly. "And the bet was stupid anyway-"

"Double or nothing," Draco interrupted her.

Hermione agreed. She didn't think about the terms of the bet; but if she had to share more kisses with him, she wouldn't mind.

Only as he flashed a smile did she realise she'd been duped.
