AN: Here is chapter three. It’s a little break from the smut but I hope you all still enjoy!
A very confused Draco sat huddled in the large bathtub of the prefect’s bathroom amidst a crowd of evergreen scented bubbles trying to figure out where exactly his life had gone wrong.
After his encounter with Granger he had wandered the halls in a stupor and then as his brain began to function it had turned into a panic. He clearly couldn’t return to his dorm in the state he was in and so that was how he had come to be in the bath.
He rubbed his temples with his fingers trying to alleviate his anxiety. His sixth year was nothing like he had imagined it would be. His father was imprisoned after being caught during the disastrous Ministry break-in the previous spring.
His mother was on holiday in France; or at least that’s what he told his fellow Slytherins. In reality, shortly after his father’s arrest she had gone into hiding. She was terrified of the Dark Lord’s displeasure and feared for both their lives. Though she despised Dumbledore she knew that because of his presence Draco would be safe for the duration of the school year.
Draco feared for his mother. Even though his Aunt was a favorite of the Dark Lord that meant little after the disaster at the Ministry of Magic and the Malfoys were on the thinnest of ice. He hoped that the Dark Lord would consider her unimportant and not trouble himself to find her.
And now there was Granger… oh he felt ill thinking about it. What on earth had come over him? Just thinking about her made him furious… and hard… shit!
Well it wasn’t like he had been getting much of anything as far as girls went. He and Pansy had dated for a long time but she was such a prude. It had been weeks before she had allowed him to kiss her and she had been disgusted when he tried to put his tongue in her mouth. Oh and once when he had tried to slip his hand up her blouse she had nearly deafened him with her affronted shrieks. Thinking he would cool off a bit Pansy had declared them to be, “On a break,” which actually meant that she would be her usual clingy self without giving him any action whatsoever.
Leaning back in the water to wet his hair Draco idly wondered what Granger would do if he put his hand up her blouse- No! He absolutely refused to think of what might be under Granger’s blouse. Not that it was very easy to picture since her clothing was all so loose. It was downright inconsiderate of her now that he thought about it. Damn. He had thought about it.
He sank down into the hot water up to his nose. What was wrong with him? After their encounter the previous year he had avoided being alone with her and had altogether given up taunting her unless Potter or The Weasel was around. He smiled at the errant thought. If they had seen what he hand done with Granger they would possibly have fainted… or murdered him. No doubt the looks on their faces would be worth the- No! No no no! He shook his head firmly in an attempt to make his idiot brain stop rationalizing what he had just done.
He knew that some of his housemates respected him significantly less now that his family was no longer in the Dark Lord’s favor. If any of them found out about his infatuation with a Gryffindor mudblood he’d never be able to set foot in the common room again.
Meanwhile, In Gryffindor tower, Hermione lay awake in her room in the girl’s dormitory analyzing the evening’s…events. Unlike Draco she had a pretty good understanding of what on earth she’d been thinking. Not that it made her rest any easier.
Ever since the beginning of the school year she had felt sort of a… strangeness when she looked at Malfoy. Mostly she wanted to hit him, which was her usual impulse, but now there was a part of her that she had to acknowledge wanted to do terribly nasty things with him. He had humiliated her too often for her to be happy about what she felt but Hermione wasn’t the type to deny it to herself.
She sighed, rolling onto her belly to press her face into her cool pillow. She also couldn’t pretend that her situation with Ron wasn’t having an influence on her behavior. She had been friends with him for a long time now and for a majority of that time had been very open to a relationship with him.
The fact that his taste would lead him to a girl like Lavender Brown instead of her had been a real blow to her ego. And she was also beyond jealous. She was embarrassed at how jealous she was but dammit she wanted to take any and every opportunity to make Ronald regret that he hadn’t chosen her.
But Malfoy? No. She couldn’t and wouldn’t use anyone let alone that slimy git just because Ron Weasley was an idiot. As if Draco Malfoy would allow himself to be used by her of all people. At least she wouldn’t have to worry about what happened in the library get around school. She wasn’t going to tell anyone and Malfoy would have just as much if not more to lose if word got out that they had… whatever that had been.
She tugged her quilt up around her shoulders and tried to let her mind go blank and let herself drift off to sleep. Unfortunately every time she did her encounter with Malfoy played behind her eyelids and made her restless. Hermione had always prided herself on keeping her head but tonight it had been impossible to think about anything except for how fantastic his body had felt against hers. And a very stupid part of her desperately wanted more.
She groaned and rolled over onto her back throwing her usually neat covers into disarray. It was going to be a very long night.
