"Alright, spill" Ginny said as her, Hermione, Harry and Ron sat down in the empty Gryffindor common room.
"Zabini came up with the idea that he and I should pretend to date in order to make Draco jealous" Hermione stated simply.
"That's it?" Ginny asked.
"That's it" Hermione replied.
"And you listened to him?" Ron asked appalled.
"Yeah.." Hermione said shrugging.
"Why the bloody hell would you listen to anything a Slytherin would tell you, and Zabini of all people! You do realize that he is Malfoy's best friend don't you? How do you know the two of them didn't plan this whole thing together?!" Ron exclaimed, anger evident in his tone.
"I don't know. I honestly don't think that they planned it together. I felt like I could trust him" Hermione said honestly.
Ron was about to blow up and freak out on Hermione, but Harry interrupted and said "Hermione, I know you have feelings for Malfoy, but you have to be careful and make sure that you aren't being taken for granted. They are from Slytherin after all, and shouldn't be trusted."
"Well if it makes you guys feel any better, I really don't think Malfoy had anything to do with this" Ginny stated suddenly.
Three pairs of eyes snapped in her direction.
"What do you mean?" Harry asked.
"Well, I happened to look over at the Slytherin table to see their reactions when Hermione and Zabini walked into the Great Hall together holding hands, and you could tell by the look on Malfoy's face that he was just as shocked about the whole thing as everyone else" Ginny stated.
Hermione felt her chest tighten in excitement.
"I don't care whether or not Malfoy was involved" Ron snapped. "I don't trust any of the lot."
Hermione turned and looked at Ron sternly and said "Some people grow up and get over the hatred from childhood."
This fueled Ron's anger even more and his face went bright red.
"So you're just going to forget about everything the Slytherins have put you through for the last six years? You're going to put your trust into them, when all they've done to you is make fun of you and call you a Mudblood? Or did you forget about that" Ron hissed through clenched teeth.
"I haven't forgotten anything" Hermione snapped standing up. "As I recall, you made fun of me in first year saying I had no friends. But, unlikeyou I don't hold grudges and give people chances. It's our final year here, and I want to make the best of it. And if that means talking to and making acquaintances with the Slytherins, then so be it."
Hermione stormed towards the portrait hole and turned around before leaving and said "Honestly, with you being one of my best friends, you should support my decisions whether you agree with them or not. Do you think I've liked and agreed with every girl that you've dated over the years? No. But, I kept my mouth shut and supported you because I knew that you were happy. It's what best friends do."
Harry watched her retreating figure and turned towards Ron.
"As much as I don't like the Slytherins, she's right you know."
Ron let out a deep breath.
"Yeah, I know."

Hermione was heading towards her dorm room when she ran into Blaise.
"What's up Granger?" he asked.
"Just heading back to my dorm. What about you?"
"Just wandering the halls aimlessly. It's a hobby of mine" Blaise said smirking.
"Sounds..fun?" Hermione said skeptically.
"It actually is. You see and hear a lot of things" Blaise stated.
"Such as?" Hermione asked intrigued.
"Well, currently a lot of girls are jealous of our new relationship" he said folding his arms across his chest and smirking.
"Oh is that so?" Hermione asked, a small smile on her lips.
"You see, they are trying to figure out just how and why it happened. They are also wondering how 'Hermione Granger' was able to 'snatch' me up" Blaise said using his fingers as quotations.
"Do tell, I would love to be enlightened to know the answers to these questions as well" Draco drawled as he stepped out from around a corner.
"What can I say, Hermione was just absolutely captivated by my good looks and awesome personality" Blaise said winking at Draco as he stepped closer to Hermione and draped his arm across her shoulders.
Blaise tried to keep a straight face as Hermione played her part well and responded to him by leaning in closer, which Blaise noted Draco had seen and was not overly impressed by.
Was that a flash of anger that Blaise had seen in Draco's eyes before he averted his eyes from them?
"What are you doing out here Draco?" Hermione asked.
Draco turned his head back towards Hermione and said "I was heading back to our room."
Blaise smirked as he had picked up on Draco accentuating on the word 'our.'
"Oh good, me and Hermione were just headed that way also. We can all walk together and keep one another company" Blaise said, a huge grin plastered on his face.
Draco narrowed his eyes and scowled at Blaise's retreating figure. He had no choice but to follow the couple back to the dorm. He watched as Blaise made a point of flaunting their relationship, and he felt anger rising in his chest. He clenched his hands into fists as he tried to regain control of himself.
Blaise looked back over at Draco over his shoulder and smirked at him, which just ended up pissing off Draco even more.
By the time they had finally reached the portrait hole to their dorm, which to Draco felt like years, he was extremely pissed off.
He heard Hermione say the password, and followed the couple through the door. He waited expectantly for the two of them to make themselves at home in the common room area, and was shocked to see that they were making their way to Hermione's bedroom.
Hermione said the password to her room and the door opened. The two of them turned to look at Draco, who stood frozen in place, and unreadable expression on his face.
"Later man" Blaise said sending Draco another wink as he followed Hermione into her room and shut the door behind them.
Draco stood rooted to the spot staring at Hermione's door, waiting for it to open again and for the two of them to come out. After a few minutes had passed, he realized that the door was not opening again anytime soon.
Draco slowly walked towards his own bedroom door, his teeth clenched in anger.
As soon as the door opened, he let himself in and lost control.
He grabbed his desk chair and whipped it against the opposing wall. He whipped all of his school books and papers off of his desk and onto the floor. He grabbed one of his potion cauldrons that was on the floor and threw it against a wall, leaving a huge hole upon impact. He stood back and looked at the damage that he had done. He ran his hand through his hair angrily. He couldn't believe the nerve of Blaise. First of all, he had meant the whole ask Hermione out thing as a joke, and didn't think that Blaise was going to take him seriously and actually do it. And then to top things off, Blaise sat there and mocked him every opportunity he had, and was now currently in Hermione's room doing god knows what. He knew how Blaise was; he had his fair share of women. Not that Hermione was that kind of girl, but to even think of Blaise trying to do that with Hermione made Draco's skin crawl and his anger rise.
He sat down on his bed and put his head in his hands. He didn't understand what was wrong with him. Why did he care so much that Blaise and Hermione were dating? He knew that Blaise had no feelings for her whatsoever, and was only dating her because he had told him to do so. So why was he so angry?
Could it be that he actually liked Hermione like Blaise had said?
No way, that wasn't possible.
Malfoy's didn't like anyone.
He had to admit, after spending time with Hermione in the Room of Requirement he had started to view her in a different light. He had learned a lot more about the girl then he had ever imagined, and found himself not hating her like he used to?
Draco shook his head. None of his thoughts were making any sense.
He let out a deep breath and calmed himself down. He looked up and scowled at the damage he had caused. He waved his wand and the room returned to its original state, void of any damage.
He lay back on his bed and closed his eyes.

Hermione stared at the wall, her eyes wide open in fear.
"What was that?" she asked.
"That would be our dear Draco throwing a temper tantrum" Blaise said smirking.
"Why?" Hermione asked.
"He has quite a temper that one" Blaise stated.
"Oh" Hermione said softly.
"Don't worry, he'll be fine by morning."
"Okay" Hermione said with a small smile.
"Well, I should probably head out. My work here is done for now" Blaise said as he started walking towards the door.
"Zabini" Hermione said stopping him.
"Yes Granger?"
"Thank you for helping me" she said smiling.
Blaise chuckled and said "Don't thank me yet."
As Blaise left her room and exited the portrait hole, all he saw was a head of red hair making its way towards him rather quickly.
Before he knew what was going on, he was pinned against the wall and was staring directly at a very pissed off Weasley.
