Hermione punched Ron instead of Draco.

In their third year at Hogwarts, Draco found himself waiting for Hermione to punch him as he leaned against a tree. His eyes met hers, and instead of aiming for him, she unexpectedly swung her fist towards Ron, sending him flying across the hill. Astonished, Harry rushed to check on Ron while Draco watched Hermione with a smile.

"I didn't expect you to punch him that hard, Mione," Harry commented, concerned for Ron's well-being. Meanwhile, Draco's smile grew wider as he observed Hermione's actions.

Hermione turned towards Draco and reassured him, "I would never punch you." Her smile radiated warmth as she gently moved her hand to caress his face. Draco's eyes locked onto hers, captivated by the tenderness he saw.

Chuckling softly, Hermione added, "Besides, I wouldn't want to mess up your handsome face." She leaned in and placed a gentle kiss on Draco's cheek, her fingers instinctively fixing his hair as they lingered on his features.

Draco grinned at Hermione, his heart fluttering with affection. In that moment, they both realized the depth of their connection, as their friendship transformed into something more. Their journey as Dramione took an unexpected turn, and they eagerly embarked on a new chapter of their lives, bound together by love and shared experiences at Hogwarts.
