Draco watched Hermione chatting with Harry, Ron and Ginny at the Gryffindor table. She was currently laughing about something Ron had said. Draco snorted into his breakfast watching them. He didn't understand how they could all be so happy all the time. Draco watched as Ron lit up because Hermione had laughed at his joke, and Draco felt like he was going to be sick. It was obvious to everyone that Ron fancied Hermione, and the whole school was just waiting for them to get together, but, since Hermione had been slipped the love potion, that whole love story was being put on hold. The whole school now knew about Hermione being under a love potion, and the reaction that it had gotten out of the student body was exactly as Draco had expected. All of the Gryffindors were furious and automatically put him at fault, the Hufflepuffs obviously took the Gryffindors side, the Ravenclaws were half and half, most of them didn't really care, and the Slytherins, who all knew the real story behind what happened, found it to be a huge joke.
Draco smirked as he thought about what was going to happen when he started to "return" Hermione's feelings.
He knew that Ron was going to go absolutely mental, especially when Draco was going to make sure to flaunt his and Hermione's "relationship" right in front of him, and Harry of course. Nothing like killing two birds with one stone.
Draco and Blaise had stayed up late last night telling all of the Slytherins of his new devised plan, and most of them thought it hilarious. Pansy was not impressed, but had promised to keep her mouth shut because she knew the rest of the Slytherins would call her a traitor and would turn on her if she said anything. He had a few of his fellow seventh year classmates wish him good luck, because they knew the rivalry between the Gryffindor Trio and himself.
Now all Draco had to do was figure out a way to get his plan into action. As much as he wanted to go through with his plan, a bigger part of him didn't because he would have to pretend to likeher. When in reality, she drove him absolutely nuts, under the influence of the love potion or not. If he was going to be honest with himself, he would have preferred the old Granger, the one who he enjoyed pissing off and causing fights with over any little thing possible, it was like an adrenaline rush, because even just making a simple comment about her blood status got her all riled up. Draco found it amusing.
However, since he had to put up with her being under the influence of the love potion, he decided he mine as well have some fun with it, it was his last year after all, and since he was already being denied the fun of tormenting her, he needed something else to do to reduce his boredom.
Draco finished his breakfast before anyone else, and decided he was going to go to Potions class early, which coincidentally happened to be with the Gryffindors.
Draco waited until he saw Hermione walk in flanked by Harry and Ron, and that's when he came up with an idea.
"Granger" he drawled lazily.
Hermione turned her attention towards him and looked at him, confusion etched upon her face. Harry and Ron had froze the second Draco had acknowledged Hermione's presence.
"Why don't you come sit with me today?" Draco asked waving his hand towards the empty seat to his left.
Ron turned towards Hermione and said "Don't do it Hermione. He probably has a trick up his sleeve."
"Come off it Ron. But don't worry, I'm not planning on sitting with him anyways, that would be too easy" Hermione said quietly.
"Too easy?" Harry asked, confusion evident in his voice.
Hermione waved him off then turned her attention back to Draco "Thanks for the offer, but I think I'm good sitting with Harry and Ron today."
Draco narrowed his eyes at her retreating back. He had been certain that he would take him up on his offer to come and sit with him. Maybe this was going to be a lot harder than he anticipated.
"Well that went well" Blaise said as he pat Draco on the back as he took the empty seat that had been designated for Hermione.
"Shut up" Draco snapped.
Blaise chuckled then said "Looks like your plan isn't as easy as you thought it was going to be."
"Please, I'm Draco Malfoy, getting girls to swoon over me is easy" Draco drawled.
"Yet you can't get a girl who's under a love potion to come sit with you.. oh, to be so.. desirable" Blaise said, mockery evident in his voice.
"Have I ever told you I hate you?" Draco asked, his temper rising.
"More times than I can count" Blaise exclaimed with a grin.

"What did you mean when you were talking about something being too easy?" Harry asked, curiosity etched in his voice.
"I'm playing a game with Draco, he just doesn't know it. I don't want to seem too easy, I want to seem desirable, so I'm making him work for my attention" Hermione explained.
Harry and Ron exchanged a look.
"Hermione, I know you err.. love.. Malfoy and everything right now, but be careful" Harry said worriedly.
"Don't worry Harry, I know what I'm doing" Hermione said smiling.
The rest of the conversation was cut off because Snape had just walked into the classroom.
"Today, we are going to be making a healing potion, I know you have done this before, but you are required to be able to know how to make all of the potions from previous years for your final examination. Any potion learned is fair game. So make sure you brush up on your knowledge." Snape said lacking emotion.
"Now, I am going to be splitting you up into pairs..."
Harry handed Ron a ripped piece of parchment.
We really need to figure out how to get a cure for Hermione. I don't care what that book says, there has got to be another way, and we are going to get to the bottom of it. I don't like how Hermione is playing games with Malfoy.. That is just bound to end up badly.
Ron read what Harry wrote, grabbed out a quill and responded.
I know mate. I can't stand the thought of Malfoy taking advantage of Hermione. I will kill him if he touches her. And what was with him asking her to sit with him today? Since when does he even want to be within a few feet of her? I don't trust him, I think he's up to something..
Harry nodded his head in agreement with what Ron had wrote.
I don't trust him either. We'll just have to keep a close eye on Hermione and make sure that nothing happens to her. We'll have to keep a close eye on Malfoy too. That way we can see if he's planning anything. Don't worry Ron, we will make sure that nothing happens to Hermione. I think it's time we pulled out my dads invisibility cloak tonight and go to the restricted section of the library and see what we can find.
Ron was about to respond until he heard his name
"Weasley, you're with Zabini"
Ron growled and looked at Harry "Who are you partnered with?"
"Parkinson" Harry stated grumpily.
"And who's Hermione with?" Ron asked curiously.
"Malfoy" Harry said darkly, his head nodding over towards where Hermione was currently headed.
"All his house unity shit sucks" Ron said angrily.
"Tell me about it" Harry said solemnly.
"Potter, Weasley, when you two are done flirting with each other, it would be nice of you to go help your partners with the potion, god knows you two need to practice" Snape snapped.
"I hate all the bloody Slytherins, Snape included" Ron grumbled to Harry as he made his way over to the table Zabini had started setting up their cauldron on.

"Well, well, look who it is" Draco drawled.
Hermione chose to ignore Draco's comment.
"Oh common Granger, I know you're full of excitement being partnered with me" Draco stated cockily.
"Whatever helps you sleep at night" Hermione said smoothly.
Draco grabbed Hermione's hand that was resting on the table.
"If you were in my bed, you'd help me sleep at night" Draco whispered seductively.
Hermione felt her cheeks grow hot.
"Although, there probably wouldn't be a lot of sleeping going on" Draco said huskily.
Hermione pulled her hand away from him and leaned in towards him.
"In you dreams" she whispered into his ear.
Draco stiffened because of the closeness between him and Hermione. He was not used to her coming so close to him, and willingly. He could feel heat radiating off of her body, and he also got a whiff of her perfume she was wearing, it was sweet. Draco had to admit that she actually smelled good. But before he could think about how she smelt any longer, she had pulled away and smirked at him and headed towards the cupboard to grab the rest of the supplies they needed.
Draco felt someone looking at him and he scanned the room looking for the culprit, until his eyes landed on a very pissed off red head.
Draco sent him a famous smirk that he was known for, and looked away.
He knew his plan was absolutely brilliant, and seeing the reaction he got from Weasley from just talking to Hermione made his smirk grow.
This is going to be fun.. he thought as Hermione returned with the supplies.
