Chapter 6
'Edward,
Harry was not pleased you left work early on Thursday.
Hermione'
'Yeah babe. Had to do some things first'
'Edward,
Was work not up to your standards? I said it was only temporary.
And I do not believe we should lower ourselves with such debase pet names.
Hermione'
'BABE… Would you like to sniff poison for him? Yeah. I thought so too.'
'Edward,
We can talk about this later.
I told you it would only be temporary. *Astonished Face Emoji*
Hermione'
'Babe we do not talk. We debate and I always loose.
What's got you surprised?'
'Edward,
Nonsense! I can be perfectly reasonable.
But since you seem incapable of working for him, maybe you can help me at Mr. Ollivander's shop?
I am not surprised, what do you mean? *Astonished Face Emoji*
Hermione'
'Babe. You know you don't have to address your name and mine in every message.
And no. I refuse for that old man to take any part of my person for a core. Why do you keep sending me that?'
'Edward,
I don't understand what you mean. How would you know if it's me.
I'll do the extracting if it helps. *Astonished Face Emoji*
Hermione'
'Exactly how I feel. *Eyeroll Emoji*'
'Edward,
I'm confused Edward. There's nothing above me. I would hope you could imagine my face doing the puppy dog eyes. Does it not work like the way you do it to me?
Hermione'
'BABE! What are you talking about?'
'Edward,
Please do not call me in such an informal way. Need I remind you, I am 43 and you're over a hundred.
Hermione'
'Those big eyes emoji don't really mean puppy eyes Mi. I am shocked.'
'Edward,
I am shocked too that you would abandon Harry like that. Could you not at least reconsider? Where are you anyway?'
Hermione'
'Babe I'm at school. Got to keep cover before I graduate. *Astonished Face Emoji*'
'Mr. Vampire
You know that never works on me.
Hermione'
'You tell me.'
"Hey Edward! What's got you in such a bad mood? Who are you texting anyway?" Bella flops beside the not so pale boy in Chemistry. His job must be doing him some good if he could at least tan a little now. It was really weird that a sheet of paper has a darker shade than him.
"My grandmother." He said flatly.
"Oh. That's sweet. I didn't know you have a grandmother. I… I mean of course you have one, it's just that you said all of you are adopted." She stammered. 'Way to go Bella'
"This one's no relative of mine. Just some woman I met in an elderly home." Bella can't help laugh at his sour face.
"Well I still think it's sweet for you to entertain her." Her laughter at his grimace earned the attention of the other teens, but it was gone the moment the teacher walks in. It was a good thing she's partners with him, Chemistry's not really her best subject anyway.
…
The two we're back in London for the weekend. He did promise to help her at the wand shop, and if he wanted to be in her good books he would push through with it. This was way better than being with that bespectacled wizard. It does help too that he can stare at her arse all day.
"Alice made a good choice with these jeans. They do hug you perfectly babe." He gropes her behind earning a squeal from her.
"Stop that Edward! We're in a store for Merlin's sake!" She hissed at him but he was not deterred. Her arse was truly lovely. He pinched it again to tease her and he knew she's not that disturbed if she just swats his hands away.
"Can't blame me babe, it's such a nice view back here." The other customers we're looking at them strangely. But he does not care, that's his witch.
"I will not buy you anymore blood pops if you keep on doing that!" Gods, she just look too cute when flustered.
"It's ok. I can think of many other things to lick." He gave her a salacious smile that made the customer beside them shudder in disgust.
"Granger. Escorting children in candy shops now." A blonde man sneered at his witch. Edward couldn't help but growl at this balding man.
"Feisty kid you have here." He was about to pounce on the blonde ponce but Hermione held his hand firmly.
"For your information Malfoy! I can escort anyone who I want! Come on Eddy!" She stomps her feet before leaving the store. Leaving Edward and Malfoy to stare at each other, the former just narrowed his eyes while the later was thoroughly appalled.
"Get your own witch baldy! That nice hot arse is mine!" He growled at the man before grabbing his bag of blood pops and following that sexy arse outside the door.
"What the fuck? I'm reporting you to Potter Granger!" Malfoy shouted through the door.
…
"I don't get why I have to be small again babe. I mean, It's nice my face meets your arse but can you not return me to my normal height?" He asks as he sucks on a blood pop. He looked back at the blonde git behind him to give him the finger. What is it with wizards and witches that get them flustered so easily.
"Right now baby Vampire I need you small. I have a tiny job for you." Edward stops dead on his tracks. His face was blank, as he owlishly blink at his witch.
"Job?" He said weakly. These jobs are never good for him.
"Oh don't be like that baby V. It's just a simple tiny job. I promise we will be in and out of there before you know it!"
"You know for someone who hates pet names, you sure do have a lot for me." He grumpily said, not bothering to ask about the job anymore. The more ambiguous she is, the more in danger he finds himself.
"Well if it helps you, we're going to Hogwarts!" She said with such a bright smile, how could he possibly deny her.
"Are we really? That's awesome! Can we meet the squid? Can I get uniform while were there? How about visiting the forest!" He asked too enthusiastically it made him look his presumed age.
"Hmm. Yes yes, the forest." She just smiled down at him, and he knew at that moment he would regret this again. He couldn't even run away from her when she just suddenly disapparate with him on the spot.
…
"A little warning would be nice babe." He was a little woozy, the smaller height does not help too.
Hermione pointed her wand at him and transfigured his clothes for him.
"Yellow? What house is that?" He was stroking the yellow and black tie he now has, some kind of badger on his chest.
"You just look like a hufflepuff to me. I wonder why?" Her hand was in propped under her chin, her face as if in deep contemplation. But she just shrugs the eerie feeling and leads the boy towards the castle wards.
…
They were walking down the steps of rocks leading to the forest. Edward thinks even if he's at his normal height he would still be a little scared. The forest was foreboding, dark and quite imposing.
"What do you call this forest again Hermione?" He walks steadily beside her. He held her hand for good measure, she might trip and he's just assisting her. He would never admit to anything else.
"Forbidden Forest." She said simply.
"WHAT? WHY AM I HERE THEN?" The disbelief in his face was comical, and Hermione would sure laugh if not for the tiny guilty feeling gnawing at her.
"You're going to help me gather fresh spider's web!"
"As long as that spider won't eat me." But the witch did not answer back nor took a look at him.
"You won't feed me to a spider babe…. Right?"
"Of course not! It's not a spider. It's a 100"
{Come brothers and sisters. A child has wondered our lands}
He did not even bother running away, the witch disillusion herself and he was left in the middle letting the herd of spider spin web, cocooning his tiny form.
…
"Oh Ms. Granger! This is quite the spider's wool you got here." The old wizard approved of her efficiency. The witch could be just a good harvester as some of his trained ones. She place the large cocoon on top of the extraction table. Garrick thought for a second it was moving, but that was quite impossible.
"Only the best sir!" She smiled at him.
"You did mention a special friend lending me some venom. Where is he anyway?" The wand maker looked at her pointedly behind his working glasses. He does ask the most eccentric and unique things from her, but she did promise.
Hermione did not bother answering, she just got out a large syringe from one of the extraction tools. When she stabbed the long needle in the cocoon, Ollivander thought of promoting her at once as wand crafter. He did not want to anger the witch by sending her in all these expedition. He was disturbed to see the petite witch can be vindictive at times.
…
"Why are we returning to Hogwarts again?" He was back to his normal look, and Edward was getting quite grumpy with her now.
"I did promise you to show you around. Besides…." She points her wand at herself and transfigures her robes into the Hogwart's uniform. The red and gold tie was quite flattering on her.
"Are we doing what I think you'll be doing?" He asks with a giddy smile. "Transfigure mine again!" Hermione did not deny him any longer as she transfigured his clothes to the school robes. But instead of getting excited like him his girlfriend just shuddered.
"I swear, you're giving me the most bizarre feeling. You just look uncannily spooky."
"Babe you and your words really do get me on. Now stop insulting me and show me this Restricted Section in the library. I believe I have a witch to snog senseless."
Her spooked out face changed into a big smile. Her laughter echoing the stone halls as he carries her playfully towards her favorite place in the world.
…
Edward couldn't get enough for her. He can't wait for the moment she changes into a vampire so that he could have his merry way with her. She was insatiable, it was a miracle he could control his speed and ministrations with her. Sucking down her neck just makes him want to bite her. He might miss her warm body, but he has barely enough control not to push her against the wall and grab her waist tight. He truly cares for the witch that he doesn't want to hurt her too much.
He loves the way she smells like jasmine, and he loves her long curly hair as he grabs it from behind to angle her face more towards him. Edward loves those dainty hands that explores his frame hungrily, just as much as he does it with her. Loves that sexy mouth, and he can't get enough of hearing the moans and mewls she makes every time he touches her. And those big hazel eyes that looks at him full of lust and passion.
And at that moment, Edward suddenly realize tha he loves the damn witch. Not just her sexy body and her devious mouth or her tightness wrapping around him. As he pumps slowly into her, he then had an overwhelming feeling of telling her how much he loves her. How much she means to him. It may be driven by the fact that they were wrapped around each other, fucking in the dark recess of the library. But he'd be damn if he let this moment pass. He kisses her passionately and when he turned up for air to look deeply in her eyes as he makes love to her in her favorite place in the school. He braces himself, and took a deep breath to finally say….
"AAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" He froze as her shout stopped his almost confession.
"What babe? What's wrong." His past thoughts forgotten as he stares at her scared gaze.
"Holy Cricket." She whispered at his face. Their movements ceased, however still buried deep inside her. She was holding onto him tightly and Edward could hear the very fast thrumming of her heart.
"Babe? Hermione?" He asks warily. His witch was too frozen in place, and he started to think if there was some ghost behind them. Or worse the scary Headmaster who just have a constant disapproving face whenever the old witch looks at him.
"Oh Merlin…." Her witch was breathing heavily. Perhaps she was also having the same revelation as his. But he was not quite sure as she starts to detach her body from his.
"Oh Merlin… Cedric?" And nothing completely removes the mood when your witch says another man's name.

AN: Dun dun dun!
