Recap:

My sky rocketing emotions plummeted at dinner as Ginny took me outside.

"Hermione. I need to ask you something. You need to tell me the truth." I was taken aback by the anger and hurt in her voice.

"Yeah, sure. Anything." I replied.

"You're dating Draco aren't you?"

Hermione's POV:

My heart caught in my throat and my breathing stopped. Ginny's face showed anger, hurt, angst and disgust. I couldn't exactly lie to her she seemed to know the truth. The fact was that I didn't even know if that's what Draco and I were even doing? Were we dating or were we simply something more than friends?

"Ginny. I, I might have a thing with Draco but we we're not exactly dating. I mean I don't think so." I answered as honestly as I could.

"How could you lie to me? Keep this from me? I'm your best friend!" Ginny looked close to tears.

"Ginny, I'm sorry but well I was worried about what you would say, think. I mean we all know what Draco's done. But he's changed." I pleaded.

"Either that or he's changed you. How can you keep this from me! The old Hermione wouldn't have kept it from me!" That hurt.

"Ginny! I swear I was going to tell you. But later. We only really began a couple days ago! Besides how did you know?" I asked and I was telling the truth.

"Last night. I went to your dorm and was ready to knock on it. I was coming to see if you were okay, and I heard you say I love you Drake. Well then I heard some kissing and I left." That explained why she was so weird today.

"Do you really love him?" She asked, I could hear the hurt in your voice and I realised that everything was crumbling. I pondered for a moment as to how I would answer the question.

"Yes." There was no other way to answer it.

"How do you know. How?" I thought back to the time on the Hogwarts Express and I asked her if she truly loved Harry.

"Ginny, remember when I asked you if you truly loved Harry and you said that you didn't know. It was the way you looked at each other your kisses and how he made you feel. That's how I know it's love. I wasn't happy this morning because I reminded myself of these things. It was because Draco told me all the things I'd forgotten about myself." I looked her in the eye and she nodded. That was it she just nodded.

"I'm not upset that you have a 'thing' with Draco, it's the fact that you didn't tell me. You kept it from me. Am I not your best friend?"

"Ginny! Of course you're my best friend." I replied.

"Then will you take me to meet him?" Take Ginny to meet Draco?

"I'll ask him first?" I asked knowing that wasn't the answer she really wanted to hear.

"Sure." She said.

Draco's POV: (Haven't written in his POV for a while!)

I was finishing up some potions work when Hermione walked in her face seemingly worried.

"Draco," she begun.

"Ginny found out about us. Before you judge me Ginny heard our conversation last night. That's how she found out. Then she asked if she could meet you. With me of course, but uh well." I watched her cringe. The old me would have become angry, perhaps even yell, but I decided that if I was going to prove that I really did love her and was changing for her I would have to control my temper. I could see why Ginny wanted to meet me. They were always close and looked out for eachother. I was always jealous of the way they were together. Not like Slytherin or my mates where it's simply politics and what can I gain from these people.

"Yeah alright, I'd like to meet Ginny too." I told Hermione truthfully. I watched her face relax and she exhaled as if she had been holding her breath for a while.

"So what are we going to do? Are we going to bring her over here?" I asked unsure as to how she wanted to meet me.

"Well I was thinking we'd invite her over and let her check out our dorm?" Hermione replied. That was seemingly harmless.

"Yeah, sure Mione that'd be great. When do you think it will happen?" I answered.

"Perhaps tomorrow night?" Hermione asked.

"Yeah sounds great."

"Cool I'll let her know tomorrow at breakfast."

Hermione came over to me she looked up at me and smiled. I had the urge to just take her to my bed chambers despite her wishes. Yet somehow I couldn't ever do that. I respected her too much, there was something about her that other girls didn't have. I think it's the way she respected herself and others is what made her so protected. I guess that's why I was able to stop last night. I couldn't believe she'd wapped her legs around me. It was very sexy and she'd unlocked a monster inside of me. However I'd quickly managed stop when she asked me to. If it was any other girl I probably wouldn't have. If every girl was like Hermione us guys would have a problem. Besides if in future we ever did go all the way I would make sure it was perfect for her, after all she deserves it.
