Here it is! The final chapter! Please enjoy, thanks for staying with me so long!

Hermione opened her eyes sleepily to a handsome face looking back at her, big silvery eyes looking lovingly in her direction.

"Good morning." She whispered, her voice soft with sleep. He smiled at her and cleared his throat, looking away.

"Hey," he said shyly, something she'd never heard in his voice before.

"Have you been up long?" she asked, pushing herself up to stretch.

"Only a few minutes… you just looked so beautiful sleeping like that." He said sincerely, again with that shy voice Hermione was surprised at.

"Thanks," Hermione said, turning pink. Draco leaned in and kissed her, his lips familiar and warm, making her feel tingly all over. He brought his hand to softly touch her hair, which fell in ringlets around her rosy cheeks. When they pulled apart she smiled.

"How about I take you on a date tonight?" he asked her suddenly.

"Where!" she asked him, snuggling against him in the crook of his arm.

"That's for me to plan and you to find out! I have to go get some things ready, okay?" he asked her, moving to get out of bed.

"Okay… what should I wear?" she asked, sitting up again. He kissed her forehead and got out of bed.

"Wear something nice, okay? I have a good surprise for you." He said, giving her his signature half-smile and a wink. He threw a shirt over his head, to Hermione's disappointment. She liked the sight of him without a shirt one… heaven knows she'd imagined it enough…

"Okay. What time will be back?" she asked him. He thought for a moment.

"I'll pick you up at six. See you then, Mione," Draco smiled, giving her one more lingering kiss before leaving. Hermione flopped back into bed, smiling happily for a few minutes. She mused about how happy she was for the first time in forever. She bounded out of bed and threw on some clothes, rearing to go see Ginny to tell her all about what had happened with Draco.

"No. Way. Noway no FREAKING way!" Ginny exclaimed when they sat down by the fire in the Gryffindor common room together. Hermione was beaming.

"I know, I don't know how it happened, I mean I know that there's been something between us for a while now, I just don't know what made me act on it like that.." Hermione admitted.

"That would be the alcohol, my dear." Ginny giggled happily, "So what happened? You didn't sleep with him did you?

"Well we slept together, but I mean we actually slept together." Hermione told her.

"What, you didn't have sex? After all of that passion you didn't have sex?" Ginny asked, surprised, "Oh merlin, Hermione, you aren't still in that anti-sex midset are you? He's Draco freaking Malfoy you know he'll be better than my brother in bed!" Ginny exclaimed.

"I'm nottt in that mindset for your information. He said he wanted to take it slow, be a gentleman. I guess I'm not like the other girls." Hermione said, smiling shyly.

"Well I'm sure that's a good think, I mean, if he would actually wait? He must really like you." Ginny said.

"He told me he loves me, Gin." Hermione smiled again. Ginny's mouth dropped open.

"No way are you serious?" she asked loudly, garnering the attention of a certain redhead in the room.

"Serious about what?" Ron asked, slinking over from the boy's staircase.

"None of your business, Ronald," Hermione said, then turning to Ginny, "I'm going to go get ready for tonight. See you later."

"Don't forget to fill me in afterwards!" Ginny smiled back at her. Hermione nodded and returned the smile, then left the common room.

"So, what were you two giggling about over here?" Ron asked his sister, sitting on the couch.

"Like Hermione said, it's none of your business, Ron. You had your chance with her, now you have no right to know." Ginny told him, crossing her arms and going back to reading a book.

"What, is she going to math club or something?" Ron scoffed, looking around as if he didn't care what she was doing.

"No, Ronald. She's going on a date. Yes, a date. And you have no business butting in. So get over her, because she's certainly over you. And don't forget, you're the one who screwed up in the first place." Ginny said scathingly. Ron looked at her, outraged.

"Some sister you are!" he snapped at her.

"You might be my brother, but what you did to my best friend is absolutely inexcusable, Ronald. You're going to have to earn back my respect. Because I sure as hell don't feel any for you now." Ginny snapped right back at him, and with that she got up and left him to his thoughts.

Hermione was ready to go at 5:30 after having spent about two hours on her outfit, hair, and makeup. She decided to wear a pale green empire- waist dress with a pair of silver heels. She had green eye shadow on with light lipstick and mascara, and her hair was blown out and flowed down her back in loose, soft waves. She thought she looked as good as she felt, and she couldn't wait for Draco to come see her. At around 5:50, she heard a soft knock on her door.

"Yes?" she asked, though she knew who it was.

"Are you ready, my dear?" Draco's voice floated through the door. Hermione stepped over to the door and opened it wide. Draco stood there with his mouth open, gaping at her beauty, and in a dapper suit. He wore a grey three-piece suit with a deep maroon shirt underneath with a black tie. Hermione didn't think she had ever seen him in that color, but she liked it a lot.

"Wow… Hermione, you just look… wow. You look amazing- ah gorgeous!" Draco stuttered a little bit. Hermione smiled shyly.

"Thank you. Not looking too bad yourself, Mr. Malfoy!" she mused, placing a hand on his shoulder. He looked at it for a moment, then back at her.

"Thought I'd try a new color. Are you ready to go?" he asked her.

"I am." She smiled back.

"Well take my arm, because we are going to apparate to our first destination." Draco smiled slyly.

"But you can't…" Hermione began only to be cut off by Draco saying he had gotten special permission to apparate within Hogwarts grounds tonight. In a second, they were standing in a gorgeous sunset, facing a sparkling beach and a small outdoor café.

"Where are we!" Hermione asked him. It was warm, and somewhere she was unfamiliar with.

"We are in California, and this is where we are going to have dinner." He told her. Hermione gasped, looking at him.

"Are you serious? Oh my goodness, Draco! Did you know that I've always wanted to come here?" she asked him. And she had. Ever since she was little and she saw pictures from her parent's trip to America she had wanted to come do the trip they had done, up and down California.

"Well, I saw you had a calendar in your room of California, so I assumed that you liked it here." He told her, smiling.

"You know, you continue to surprise me, Draco." She smiled back at him.

"Come on, let's go." He offered her his arm and they walked over to the café, where they got a seat right by the water. After they ordered, they sat and chatted for a while, then gazed out at the sun setting over the ocean before them.

"You are really beautiful." Draco told her, staring from where he sat. The pink-orange glow of the sun was reflecting on her face and the waves of her hair, making her look like a goddess. She looked over at him shyly.

"Thank you." She said, turning rosy in the cheeks. Just then their meals came, lobster tails with butter and steamed vegetables. Hermione had never tasted such amazing seafood in her life. And she had a thing for seafood. For dessert they ordered a cheese and fruit platter, Hermione's favorite. After dinner Hermione tried to pay for half, but Draco refused to let her, insisting that he pay the whole thing. They walked arm in arm out of the restaurant then, along a cobblestone path lit with strings of lights in the bushes and trees.

"Time to go home?" she asked, in a tone that suggested she didn't want to leave just yet.

"Did you think that I didn't have more than a dinner planned? Tsk, tsk, Miss Granger!" he playfully teased her, walking her over to a dark gazebo, where they sat on the bench. The last rays of the sun were beginning to disappear now.

"May I have this dance?" he asked her, offering his hand.

"But Draco, there's no-" Hermione started.

"Music?" he asked, and just as he said the word, classical music began to play, from where, Hermione did not know. She smiled and took his hand. He pulled her to the center of the gazebo, and they began dancing, at which point another surprise was revealed. The entire gazebo lit up with twinkling lights, and Hermione looked around them excitedly.

"Draco, this is gorgeous!" she exclaimed.

"So are you." He said softly into her ear. Hermione pulled back to look at him, and he had a heavy look in his eyes, full of desire. They continued dancing like this for a while, she could feel the heat of his breath on her cheek and he could smell the sweetness of her perfume. The moment seemed to freeze time, and they could only hear each other's breath.

"You know I never expected to be here dancing with someone as absolutely breathtaking as you. You must be an angel… there's no other way because the earth couldn't possibly create such a perfect this as you. You saved me, Hermione." Draco whispered to her. Hermione simply gazed at him with wide eyes.

"I saved you?" she asked.

"Yes. I've never felt this way about someone, Hermione. You've opened up a part of me I didn't know I had. I never thought I'd feel so deeply about someone, especially you." He told her softly, brushing a strand of hair out of her eyes. Hermione exhaled.

"Well you know, if it weren't for you, I never would have realized I deserved better than Ron. You showed me that I'm worth so much more than that. Thank you." Hermione told him. Then she grabbed hold of his tie and pulled him in for a heated kiss, which he responded to immediately, matching her pace. They kissed for a while, then Hermione pulled Draco out of the gazebo into a grassy field. Fireflies glowed all around them and Hermione lay down in the grass, pulling Draco down with her. They looked at the stars, pointing out constellations and commenting on how bright they were. At around ten o clock they decided it was time to go home… which meant one thing, the one thing Hermione had been thinking and dreaming of for days.

Together, Draco and Hermione apparated to the exact spot that they had left, right outside of Hermione's door.

"So, what do you want to do now?" Hermione asked shyly, playing with a strand of her hair.

"Well I had one last surprise for you… do you want it?" he asked her, taking her hands in his.

"Yeah," Hermione said, giving him a dreamy smile. She was lost in her happiness. She had never had such a wonderful, thoughtful date in her life. Draco led her through the bathroom to his room.

"Close your eyes." He instructed her. He said the password to his door, Andromeda, and pulled her in by her hands.

"Okay, open them." Draco whispered in her ear. Hermione opened her eyes to Draco's room, only it wasn't how it was the last time she was here. He had added pillows to his bed, and placed candles on every surface. The only light was coming from the flames, and bathed the room in a beautiful pale gold light.

"Do you like it?" Draco asked her, holding her waist from behind her.

"It's lovely, Draco." Hermione whispered, her breath and heartbeat already quickening. She was already starting to feel warmth in her abdomen, and she was sure tonight was going to blow her mind. Draco moved his hands from her hips, slowly trailing up to her neck, where he pushed her hair over one shoulder so he could lean in and breathe on her sensitive skin. Hermione closed her eyes and tilted her neck to the side as an invitation for him to continue, and continue he did. He placed soft, purposeful kisses on her shoulder, collarbone, and neck and as he did so, his hands wandered around to her front, where he rubbed her stomach up and down… eventually moving up to her breasts, which he massaged softly. Hermione couldn't stop thinking about how good it felt to have him touching her at this moment and she never wanted him to stop.

"Does that feel good?" Draco whispered huskily in her ear. Hermione shuddered at the sensuality in his voice. She nodded urgently, turning her head to meet his before turning the rest of her body around. He caught her in a searing kiss the second her lips were in reach, and they staggered back towards the bed, their tongues swirling around each other all the way.

Hermione felt the bed at the back of her knees, and she let herself fall backwards and watched as Draco moved on top of her, brushing his hands across her skin as he went, making her shiver under his touch. He kissed across her collar bone and neck before moving along to her cheeks, then finally her lips. His hands were tangled in her hair, one slowly moving down to caress her thigh, which she moved along with him so he could slip his hand underneath her to cup her ass in his hand. Hermione moaned against his lips as he lightly squeezed the supple skin there. She fumbled with the buttons on his vest and once she got the last button undone, he shrugged it off, throwing it across the room. Still kissing heavily, he pulled Hermione up to a sitting position, expertly opening the back of her dress and slipping the skinny straps off of her shoulders. Hermione shimmied the dress down to her waist, revealing a cotton, electric blue bra with hot pink stripes. At the sight of the bra, Draco chuckled.

"Nice bra," he breathed in her ear, painting circles on her chest with his fingers.

"Yeah, well… it was the only one I had today…" Hermione said, embarrassed and turning red.

"Well I like it… it's fun." He said, giving her a wink before he leaned down to her chest to kiss the skin between her breasts. She squeezed his sheets between her fingers, wanting him more and more each second. Again, Draco came up to her lips and lifted her up, unhooking her bra with one hand. Impressed by his tactics, Hermione giggled.

"What?" he asked her, giving her a smile.

"Nothing, you're just quite an expert, aren't you?" Hermione said. Draco's face suddenly went serious.

"Hermione I want you to know that it's not like that with you. You're special. You've changed me, and you mean more to me than I ever thought a person could mean to me. Seriously, this is more than just sex, okay?" he said, looking her directly in the eyes. Hermione nodded, a piece of hair falling into her face.

"I know. It's much more." She whispered. He reached out and carefully tucked the loose strand of hair behind her ear, then slowly leaned in to kiss her softly. Hermione slipped the bra off and tossed it away with his discarded vest, revealing her bare breasts. Draco took a minute too look at her half-naked self.

"Wow… the amount of times I imagined you like this…" he whistled softly. She smacked him playfully.

"Well I mean, I just meant I knew you'd be beautiful without clothes… not that you're not beautiful with clothes, I just…" Hermione stopped him from going on further with her lips, her hands flying to his button down, undoing the buttons as fast as she possibly could. She wanted him badly now, and she could feel it in the wetness gathering in her panties. With each button Hermione opened, more and more of Draco's carved chest was revealed and Hermione felt herself getting warmer and warmer with desire. The shirt joined the bra and vest.

Draco's hands slid down Hermione's stomach, lifting her dress and helping her pull it over her head. It fell to the floor in a pool of silk. Now that the dress was out of the way, Draco slipped his hand between Hermione's legs, massaging her core.

"Shit, you're so wet already… you want it, huh?" Draco asked her seductively. Hermione sighed, frustrated. She wanted MORE. The rubbing felt amazing but she needed him. She needed him right now. She fingered her his belt, tugging it out of the loops and tossing it aside, squirming under his touch. Next she went for the button and zipper, and all she was aware of was her desire for him, and their breath hanging in the air around them. He removed his hand only to tug his pants off, throwing them from the bed, then he went down on Hermione, kissing her stomach up to her breasts, where he began to kiss and sick her nipples. He rolled it between his teeth, biting lightly, making her moan and shudder, squirming underneath him.

"Ohhhh Draco…" she said breathily. He couldn't control the bucking of her body. Her nipple grew hard with the touch of his tongue and Hermione cried out in pleasure when he lowered a hand to rub her clit directly.

"FUCK ME!" she screamed suddenly, jerking up. Draco chuckled again at her reaction.

"Oh Hermione, do you like that? Am I doing a good job?" he asked her cheekily. Hermione nodded franticallt.

"Yes yes yes, keep going!" she said loudly, moving her hips along with his fingers on her clit.

"You want more, baby?" he asked her sweetly, moving his hand verrrry slowwwwly. Hermione gave him another nod. She closed her eyes and threw her head back, ready to enjoy the rubbing, but she was even more surprised at what she felt. Draco had gotten down on his hands and knees and applied his tongue to her pussy, licking it up and down and swirling around her clit. Hermione had never felt anything like it before in her life. It was perfect, and she needed more and more…

"Oh gods Draco that feels amaaazing…" she muttered, moving her hips with his tongue. He couldn't help but feel proud of his ability to make her feel so good. He slowly inserted a finger into her wet core, immediately feeling her desire on his hand. Hermione jumped again, screaming out his name.

"Holy shit! Fuckkk Draco…" Hermione couldn't handle how good it felt. How could she have ever thought that sex wasn't fantastic? It was more than fantastic. It was outstanding. Draco moved his finger in and out of her, continuing to lick at her clit, and Hermione could feel the heat building up inside of her, and her toes were curling under, muscles tense.

"Fuck oh my godddd Dracoo keep going it feels so good keep going!" She exclaimed, and he pumped his finger in and out of her tight hole faster and faster, and he suddenly felt her tighten around him, and he looked up at Hermione, who was arching her back in pleasure.

"OH GODDD DRACO!" she screamed out loudly. Draco smiled against her pussy, giving it a final lick to make her jump.

"You liked that, baby?" he asked, coming back up to give her a kiss. Hermione met his mouth with need, and she tasted herself on his lips. Suddenly, she pushed him back, and he sat up.

"What are you-" he began to ask, but Hermione was moving too quickly for him. She was already in his lap, tugging down his underwear to release his cock, which she had to take in for a moment before moving again. It was ENORMOUS. It was far bigger than Ron's was, and she wasn't sure it would even fit inside of her. Draco chuckled, seeing the look of complete surprise on her face.

"Like what you see, love?" he asked her in that same cheeky voice. Hermione looked up at him with her large eyes, then back down at his large member. Instead of answering, she licked the entire length, from base to tip.

"Ohh fuck… go on, love, that feels amazing." He quietly egged her on, tangling his hand in her hair. She opened her mouth wide, taking as much of his cock into her mouth as she could possibly fit. Slowly, she began to suck, gaining speed every time she heard him grunt or moan.

"Mmmmm Hermione…" he moaned her name, letting himself fall backwards, enjoying the feeling of her sucking his huge cock. He heard the wet noises of her mouth on him, and it made him even harder. She was a pro at sucking dick. She swirled her tongue around the head, then suddenly deepthroated it as far as she could, gagging a little in the process. But he didn't want it to end there.

"Hermione." He said suddenly, very firmly. She looked up at him, still moving her mouth around him.

"I need you. Right now." He said, his eyes dark with the deepest desire Hermione had ever seen. Hermione's mouth left him with a pop, and he sat up, took her in his arms, and moved to put her on her back. He stared into her eyes for a moment before positioning himself at her entrance.

"I want you to take me." Hermione whispered to him softly. She felt the tip of his cock at the entrance of her vagina and was never more ready for anything in her life. He pushed into her, filling her entirely. She was so fucking tight. He had never felt such a tight pussy in his life, and it felt amazing wrapped around his cock.

"Oh GODD!" Hermione cried out immediately, arching her back. His cock was so big. She couldn't believe how much he filled her up, and it was uncomfortable for only a second. Draco waited while she stretched to accommodate him.

"Are you okay?" he asked her, trying not to move. Hermione nodded.

"Oh my goddd Draco just go, just GOO." She commanded quickly, and he obliged. He started to move slowly, pumping in and out of her all the way in and all the way out. Hermione was moaning and holding on to his back for dear life. She began to move her hips with him, which made him go faster, fucking her fast and swift, watching her breasts bounce from the force.

"Fuckk mee Draco that feels so good ohhhh…" Hermione moaned. He grunted and pumped faster, their eyes locking. He looked into her brown eyes, seeing the desire and the feelings there, and she looked right back into his silver ones, seeing the exact same thing there. They made love for what seemed like forever, and Draco had never experienced sex like that before. There was really something to having feelings for the person you were sexually with. He never imagined it to be such a wonderful feeling. And he knew he was pleasing her more than she had ever been pleased, and he knew based on the noises she was making, noises that she never knew she could make. They had developed a pace, thrusting and moving together, and they could feel the end coming. Their orgasms were building up quickly, and they were desperate for release. Draco reached down to rub her clit to bring her over the edge, and she immediately came.

"OHHHH DRACOOOO!" she screamed at the top of her lungs, and her eyes squeezed shut, toes curled under, and lights exploding in her mind. The tightening of Hermione's walls squeezed Draco to the point where he couldn't last anymore, and he spilled his seed into her. They stayed in that position for a few seconds, just listening to each other's breath, then Draco rolled off of her, draping his arm over her waist. Their breathing eventually slowed, and they snuggled together, happily enjoying the other's touch.

"Draco?" she asked.

"Yeah, love?" he answered.

"I never ever thought sex could be so amazing. Draco laughed out loud, and rolled back onto her, kissing her happily.

"I love you, golden girl." He said, smiling.

"Love you, too, sex god." Hermione giggled. And together, they spent the night, her nestled into his arms.

Sooo what did you think? Please review I love you all! And happy holidays!
