~~.Hermione's POV.~~

Sitting next to Draco in potions today, the whole class testing the potions that we made yesterday. I fiddled with my flask as Snape was explaining what would happen.

"You will each take the potion when I tell you to. I will award marks according to what is supposed to happen. This potion is a feelings potion. You will be telling your partner how you really feel about them. Alright. Parkinson, Potter." 'You have got to be kidding me!!!' Pansy and Harry downed their flasks and looked at each other.

"You are one crazy weird boy." Pansy yelled at Harry.

"Yeah? We'll you're fat." Harry yelled back. My eyes went wide and looked at Snape, who was smiling. That's right, smiling. A few more minutes went by of the two of them telling each other what they thought of them before it seemed to die off.

"Well done Parkinson, Potter, an E for each of you." Snape said. Next was Crabbe and Goyle. They drunk the flasks and turned green. Now I was confused. "Crabbe, Goyle, you are idiots, T for each of you. That is not the desired effect. Feel lucky that it wasn't worse!" Snape yelled from the front of the classroom. The lesson went on. Some of the potions worked, some of them didn't. I sat there next to Draco, dreading our turn.

"Brown and Weasely." Snape said. Ron had been paired with Lavender and it was now their turn. After drinking the potion, Lavender smiled at Ron.

"Ron, you are so cute!" she exclaimed.

"You aren't." Ron said. "Gosh Lavender, do something with that hair!"

"But Ronnikins I love you!" she squealed in her high pitched voice. The whole class laughed as the potion had made Lavender propose marriage. Ron of course declined, saying he had feelings for someone else. My eyes widened and I got a couple glances. There were only three more pairs to do when the bell went.

"Alright, everyone can go, except for those who haven't had a turn." Snape said. People began exiting the classroom and I stayed back with Draco and four other people, going up and standing at the front of the classroom. "I'll give you the option of doing it now or next class." He said. "Those who want to do it next class can go." The other two pairs slowly left the classroom and I looked up at Draco.

"I'd rather get it done now if that's alright." I said.

"Whatever." He just mumbled. Snape nodded, as it was just the three of us in the room, it was much less intimidating. We both drank the flasks and I got a jolt. Suddenly I felt like proclaiming my love for Draco. I looked at him with wide eyes. I tried my hardest to fight the potion. "I want to cut off your oxygen supply." He said through clenched teeth. I could tell that he was fighting the potion as well.

"I am the one who will be cutting off your oxygen supply Draco." I held my breath, trying so hard not to yell.

"I love you!"

"I love you!"

Suddenly his lips crashed onto mine and in one swift movement I jumped, my legs going around his waist and my arms around his neck. Our kiss was passionate, fast. I opened my mouth and let his tongue enter. His arms embraced me, holding me tight. I felt like I could not let go. The minutes passed and I no longer felt the extra urge from the potion. I opened my eyes wide and jumped off of him. We both stood there, mouths open in shock, staring at each other. I didn't even remember that Snape was there. But he was, wide eyed and shocked like the two of us.

"I… er…" Snape tried. "O to both of you." I stood there, still panting for breath. I can't believe I just Frenched Draco! I slowly walked back to the desk and packed away my stuff before running out of the potions classroom. I could hear Draco's feet running behind me, but I didn't slow down.

"Hermione!" he called out my name, but I kept running. He reached me and pulled on my arm to make me stop running. "Do you really…" I looked up at him with both anger and love. Tears were also brimming on my eyes. He didn't let me respond, but quickly and lustfully met his lips with mine again. I kissed him back. I couldn't help it, I did. I did. He backed me against the wall and deepened the kiss.

He finally pulled out, panting for breath. I stood there, also panting, wanting to hit my head on the wall behind me.

"I think you are beautiful." He said, and smiled. That's right, it wasn't a smirk, it was a smile. I couldn't believe it. Maybe he actually loved me to.

"I…" I took a deep breath, looking into his beautiful eyes. "Can't believe…"

"It has to be true."

"I know… but you can't… I can't… we are…" he rested his forehead on mine and closed his eyes. I closed mine as well, just soaking in the moment.

"I love you Hermione." He said through clenched teeth, not believing himself. I opened my eyes and looked into his, which were also open and staring into mine.

"I love you Draco." He smiled and closed his eyes, holding my waist and kissing me once again.
