"How 'bout it 'erminey? Come on, gi'us a kiss…" Ron's loud, drunken voice rung across the Hufflepuff common room and Hermione cringed. It didn't give her the best reputation to have two very drunken idiots as her best friends. (She denied they were her only friends but knew deep down that Ron and Harry were the only people she could be close to). To top this she was highly thankful that Ron's girlfriend-of-the-minute Parvati wasn't at the party to witness this obscene lack of tact and manners from Ron.

One week in to the first term and she was already sat, half-way-drunk, on a table full of boys wondering why she came. Delicately Hermione detached herself from Ron and Harry's arms and moved to the centre of the room. The Hufflepuff common room had become a sort of hub for parties since last year as it was impartial to the Griffindor/Slytherin rivalry and allowed people from all houses to attend without too many fights breaking out.

"Alright newbies in line and find a Dare Buddy." Hermione didn't understand most of this phrase but as she drew closer to the source of the noise she noticed it coming from Draco's mouth. Hermione felt the colour rise in her cheeks; he was gorgeous. Attractive in a forbidden kind of way that always had her short for breath.

"You in?" He was suddenly looking right at her, one eyebrow raised sceptically, "Didn't think you Griffindors were up for The Dare, whereas Slytherins on the other hand…" Hermione frowned, is he challenging me?

"I'm in." She replied more confidently than she felt tossing her hair back a little. "What's this dare anyway?"

"For you Granger…let's see…" He parted the small huddle of Slytherins and took a piece of paper from a large wooden goblet. He let a malicious leer spread across his face, as Mione's doubt grew stronger. Malfoy ostentatiously showed the piece of paper to a few Slytherins next to him who tittered and jeered. Oh no, oh shit, what have I done? Hermione thought to herself as he beckoned with one finger.

"It's the Twelfth Night Dare." He whispered in her ear as she got closer. She didn't have a clue what he meant.

"Oh…um…right."

"Come with me."

Hermione certainly was a fool for Draco. She followed him meekly into a little room and waited for him to explain.

"Twelfth Night Dare is a pretty easy one to be honest, but we take the unbreakable vow on it. So there's no getting out of it girl. You have to seduce a boy in your house and spend eleven nights of sin with him."

"Eleven nights of… sin?" Hermione raised an eyebrow,

"Oh don't be so naive Granger." Draco spat "You know what I mean." Hermione gulped,

"That's it?"

"No. These nights can be over any period of time. So it can take 11 months if you want. But on the Twelfth night you have to betray him, and spend a night in sin with another man. Easy?" Hermione gulped again before finding her voice,

"And if I don't?"

"Ha! Well it's an unbreakable vow so if you fail the dare then you have to do Slytherin forfeits. And, love, it's not pretty."

"What are they then?"

"Well one will involve very few clothes, a camera and the rapid loss of your dignity Miss Granger." He drawled, "But if you do it…I'll give you something, I know you're just dieing for…"

Her breath caught in her throat and froze there as Draco moved closer putting both hands on her hips and pushing her gently to the wall; he pushed his body close up to hers and leant his cheek next to her face. Draco let his breath tickle her neck and felt a rush of gratification on seeing her mouth making delicate movements in the air, trying to kiss him, his breast rising and falling heavily.

"I knew you were. So are you in?" He hadn't moved away from her at all and it was all Hermione could do to whisper

"Yes."

And they pulled apart, linking arms and beginning the spell…
