Chapter One: The first time

A/N. The idea for this story came to me one night just as I was falling asleep. So I've decided to start it and see how it goes. It's not exactly compliant with the books but then again none of the Dramione fan fictions are.

As you may have figured, I ship Dramione- hard. To all the Romione shippers, no hard feelings, it's just a difference of opinion. As always reviews are very welcome! Also if anyone detects any errors I would really appreciate it if you would point them out to me. I'll stop rambling now and let you read. Enjoy!

Disclaimer: Everything recognisable belongs to J. K. Rowling. Only the plot is mine.

Secret smiles and stolen glances, that's how it's always been for us… and sometimes I fear that's how it will always stay. It started off like all petty adolescent romances do- with a fight… and in our case, a punch.

He was the forbidden fruit. The one everyone warns you stay away from and yet something just draws you in… be it their smile or even just that insufferable smirk (which is more common than an actual smile). For me it was both although my weakness for apologies is slightly to blame as well. You see, no matter how hard I try, I just can't seem to get him out of my system… it's been almost 5 years now, but it still feels like the very first day. There's still passion, there's still that burning fire, there's still the jelly legs sensation and for me there's still love.

You're probably wondering how it started out… people are usually curious about that. I don't blame them, we make a strange pair. It started at the end of 3rd year. I punched him that year, you could call it our 'defining moment', the moment that drew us together. It didn't happen directly after the punch of cause, no it happened long after that. After we helped free Sirius and Buckbeak. It happened once life got back to normal. It happened like this…

"I know it was you mudblood." Came a cold sneer from behind me.

"Oh really?" I ask turning to face him, "Why don't you prove it." I finish of with an equally cold sneer before turning around and walking back towards the castle.

"Did you honestly think I'd be dumb enough not to notice your bloody time turner?" this made me stop dead in my tracks.

"I don't know what you're talking about." I reply coolly before continuing up.

"You know I'm rather surprised none of the teachers caught on… or those idiotic friends of yours." He said as he walked behind me.

"Like I said Malfoy. I. Don't. Know. What. You're. Talking. About. Now would you stop following me?"

"Please."

"What?" I asked, finally fed up, turning to face him.

"It's, would you stop following me please. You should be respecting your superiors Muddy." He replied.

"You have done nothing to warrant my respect. You disgust me Malfoy," I spat, "now, kindly get out of my way your royal highness before I break your nose… again." I finished before storming past him.

"That was a lucky shot." I heard him mummer, he probably didn't mean for me to hear that.

That was the first time. The first time an actual conversation occurred, the first time she smiled after a conversation with him… It was the conversation that marked the beginning of their story.

Alright! So that's the end of the first chapter. Like I said at the top, please review I'd love to hear some thoughts, good or bad I can take it also I will try and have the next chapter up by Saturday, so bear with me for a while, I promise to make it worth your time!
