Chapter 6

*Hermione's POV*

I sighed as the hot water from my morning shower hit me. Finally! It was Friday! I smiled and enjoyed my shower a little more.

When I finished, I hopped out of the shower and cast a drying charm on myself as usual before putting on my clothes.

Today, I opted for a pair of black skinny jeans and a white top with sleeves that reached my elbows and little black bows decorating it.

As I was about to leave the bathroom, I spared a look at my forearm, which was on display. I sighed softly, looking at the word.

Mudblood.

I remembered that fateful day like it was yesterday. It haunted me. Her face, leaning over me with a grizzly grin. But more importantly, HIS face.

I remembered his face like no other. He looked like he was about to cry. He looked so conflicted and scared that I just couldn't get it out of my mind.

I remember hoping he would come and help or do something but I knew he couldn't. He was trying to save his family and he couldn't go directly up against the dark Lord.

The scar hadn't faded one bit but I usually put a concealment charm on it. But not today. I wouldn't put on a glamour charm on it. I would stand with pride.

I smiled at my sudden internal outburst and walked out of the bathroom. I was surprised to see Ginny and Harry already waiting out there.

I sat down next to Ginny while Harry was on Ginny's other side.

"'Mione, are you coming to watch quidditch tryouts?" Harry asked happily.

"Erm... when is it?" I asked.

"Well we have to go to our first two lessons and after that, the whole school is dismissed from all other lessons to come and try out or spectate" he explained.

"Then of course I'll come!" I grinned.

"I'm trying out too!" Ginny smiled. "And I know I'll get the place" she added smugly.

"Of course Gin" I said, patting her arm and rolling my eyes while chucking. "What position?"

"Chaser" she replied airily.

"Cool" I said simply.

"Why don't you try out?" Ginny asked suddenly.

"Pffffft No. I hate flying, remember?" I asked.

"But still!" Ginny persisted.

"No thanks. I think I'll sit this one out Gin" I laughed.

She stuck her tongue out at me and I laughed louder.

"Oh gods. Malfoy is still in there!" Harry breathed.

"Where?" I asked.

"The shower. He got in like 45 minutes ago and he doesn't get out. He takes forever in the shower! Luckily, I already took my shower before he woke up because we all need to take a shower before quidditch" Harry explained.

Just then, Theo came out of his room, wearing a bathrobe and clutching a set of clothes. He was steaming as he walked up to the bathroom door.

"Draco! Hurry the fuck up man! We need to get to breakfast soon and then be out on the field for quidditch after 2 hours" he groaned, banging a fist on the door.

"Shut up you sod, I'm coming out soon. Jeez" came a voice from the bathroom.

"Wanker" Theo shot back.

"Fuck off" replied a voice.

Theo rolled his eyes before going back into his room, grumbling about showers and using up the hot water.

We all laughed quietly. 

"Apparently, Malfoy is the new quidditch team captain. But we'll have to find out after tryouts because our head of House chooses after" Harry said quietly.

"McGonogall already chose Harry in advance but told him not to let everyone know" Ginny whispered.

I nodded, beaming at Harry to congratulate him. He grinned back and Ginny pecked him on the cheek.

I watched his face light up and I sighed to myself. Even though I was perfectly happy with being single, it would be nice to have someone to talk to about your insecurities or someone to whisper sweet nothings in your ear or someone to just hold in your arms or be held in theirs.

I was snapped out of my self pity when Harry spoke.

"Okay, I'll get going. Meet me in the hall when you're ready" he said and left the common room.

There was a silence between me and Ginny but she broke it.

"So... spill. What happened between you and Draco yesterday?" She whispered.

"H-how do you know something happened?" I asked.

I didn't tell her and she obviously didn't see. Was she a seer? Probably not...

"Just the look on your face" she shrugged.

"What look?" I asked curiously.

"You always beam and there is always a sort of twinkle in your eyes every time you encounter him" she explained.

My mouth dropped. "No there's isn't!" I squealed. "Are you feeling alright Gin?" I asked, placing a hand on her forehead.

"Move your hand woman!" She said and I obliged. "And yes there is! You just can't see it!" She claimed.

"...whatever you say Gin. Whatever you say" I said, deciding to go along with her complete craziness.

I did not 'beam'! And my eyes certainly did not twinkle! Well maybe they did, I was probably just completely dazed because he's so ugly! Yeah!

"You're not buying it, are you?" She said, an amused glint in her eye.

"Nope" I said, popping the 'p'.

"Oh well, you don't need to. I can just see the glow in your face and know something happened between the 2 of you. Now tell me what" She urged.

"I'm not telling" I said stubbornly with a smirk.

"Ooh it's private, is it?" She teased.

I felt my face heat up with outrage and embarrassment. "N-"

Just then, the bathroom door opened and Malfoy walked out with nothing except a towel around his waist!

He walked to his room casually, like it was the most normal thing in the world to walk around half nude, and turned to look at us while walking.

"Ladies" he acknowledged with a smirk.

His eyes landed on me and our eyes locked. There was something glinting in his eyes like he was trying to challenge me to do something. He dragged his tongue across his bottom lip in a... casual way...

yeah no.

He winked at me and I couldn't help but let my eyes wander down his body. Just halfway! Promise!

...His body was perfect...

My eyes widened and I immediately looked down at my lap where my hands were intertwined. My face was probably scarlet. I didn't even see his body properly, only the side but I could still tell that it was perfect...

No no no no no no! Not perfect. No Hermione, get a bloody grip! Ugly. Ugly. Ugly. Not perfect. Not strong. Not perfect... wait. I already said that.

He disappeared into his room, a smirk fixed on his face. Dammit, I let him get to me!

"I knew it! Something did happen!" Ginny said triumphantly.

"Be quiet" I hissed, covering her mouth just as Theo walked out of his room.

"Finally!" He said, exasperated before going into the bathroom, relief and irk evident on his handsome features.

I removed my hand from Ginny's mouth.

"Something did happen, okay?" I whispered.

"I think I already established that" Ginny said, rolling her eyes.

I glared at her but gave her a recount of yesterday, leaving out the bit where I debated with myself.

Her eyes widened and she squealed, successfully sounding like a dying seal. "Oh my Merlin! I can't believe it! You were about to kiss him?" She asked.

"Obviously for my goal" I said uncomfortably. "And it's WAY too soon to do that. I need to be smart if I want to lead him on" I said.

"Do whatever but wow! Only your first week back and you nearly kissed him!" She whispered.

"But I didn't! I still can't believe I nearly did it though! I haven't even seduced him enough yet! That was so stupid of me!" I groaned.

"Oh well" Ginny replied.

I put my head in my hands and shook my head. That. Was. Stupid. Of. Me.

"Stop beating yourself up about it. Judging by what you said, he seems to be wrapped around your finger anyway. Totally smitten" she teased.

"Not smitten but seduced. Smitten makes it sound like he actually likes me in a like like way. Not in a sexual manner" I sighed, suddenly feeling a little depressed.

Wait, what? I'm not depressed! I'm not! I'm happy, I've got plenty of company. My friends and crookshanks... and er...

Yeah! My adorable little cat! He always entertained me and he was reliable than any old boyfriend. Boys are dumb and they break your heart when they are finished with you. But not cats!

"Hey, don't be upset" she said, patting my arm. "I'm sure you'll find someone soon... preferably Draco" she added slyly.

I snatched my arm away and glared at her. "First of all, I'm not upset. Second, I highly doubt that sod is capable of staying with one girl for more than a week" I grumbled and stood up.

She smirked knowingly and stood up as well. "We better get going or we'll miss breakfast and I'm not having that" Ginny said with a hint of sass.

I chuckled and started walking out. "Hey, I never see Luna nowadays, where is she?" I asked curiously.

"She goes to sleep really early and then wakes up super early as well, going to hunt for wurly flies apparently" Ginny grinned.

I laughed. Classic Luna.

"Hermione" Ginny said cautiously.

"Hmm?" I asked.

"Your scar" she hissed. "You haven't concealed it"

I looked down at my arm. "Yeah I know" I smiled.

"Oh" Ginny replied, blinking slowly before grinning. "Good for you 'Mione. Don't be ashamed of it, stand proud" Ginny said.

"Okay Gin, you can stop with the pep talk now" I laughed.

Ginny nodded and grabbed my hand. "Can we hurry up a little? I'm starving! I'm going to die soon if I don't shove something down my throat" she groaned.

"How about Harry's tongue?" I giggled evilly.

"And for you, how about Draco's dick?" She retorted, laughing like a mad woman.

"Ginny!" I hissed, slapping her arm. Appalling. "You dirty little girl!"

She laughed in reply and dragged me to the hall. Hunger does strange things to people... by people I mean Ginny.

D♥R♥A♥M♥I♥O♥N♥E

Finally it was time for quidditch tryouts. We were all escorted to the pitch and up to the stands. Just before Ginny parted ways, I gave her hand a reassuring squeeze.

"Good luck, don't be nervous" I said.

"Pfft nervous? Me? And I don't need luck, I've got skill" she said proudly.

I could tell that even though she wasn't very fazed, she was a little nervous. There were a lot of people trying out.

She walked off in the direction of the changing rooms and I smiled. We all walked up to the stands. I sat beside Dean and behind me were the Patil twins, Lavender and Romilda Vane.

"Hey Dean" I smiled.

"Hi Hermione!" He greeted cheerily.

Seamus came and sat down on my other side.

"Hello Sea" I said.

"Hello, fine day isn't it?" He said in his irish accent.

"I guess so" I smiled, looking up at the blue sky.

"So do any of you guys know who's trying out for what positions in Gryffindor?" I asked.

"Well Harry's going for seeker and Ron is trying out for keeper. Ginny is going for chaser but I'm not sure who else" Dean said.

"Oh okay" I said.

"Hey, I heard for Slytherin that Malfoy is going to become the team captain. He's trying out for seeker to" Seamus said.

"Yeah I've heard that to, I guess we'll have to see after the tryouts" I said.

"Yeah" they both said airily.

We all sat back in our seats, waiting for the first team to come on.

Tryouts were basically a game of quidditch but in that house.  So they were playing against themselves to determine the best person in each area.

After all the houses played, the head of House would announce the new captain for their own team and the people who got on the team were told later on that day.

Gryffindor came on first and I waved at Ginny. She grinned and waved back. They all positioned themselves and kicked off the ground, rising into the air.

They started playing and all my friends were doing amazing! I cheered when Harry finally caught the snitch which signalled the game over.

They all came to the stands. Seamus kindly moved so Ginny could sit at my side and I congratulated her for the performance.

"I told you I didn't need luck. I've got them skills" she laughed.

"Whatever you say Gin" I laughed.

Next Ravenclaw came on. The game passed and then Hufflepuff came to play. They finished and then finally, Slytherin started playing.

They came out of the changing rooms in a line and I scanned them all, my eyes resting on the man with platinum blond hair.

"Oh my merlin, look at him!" Parvati squealed. "He's so hot!"

Dean face palmed. "Not again" he groaned.

"Who are they taking about?" I laughed.

"Malfoy of course! I have to share a common room with them and they are forever obsessing about him!" He groaned.

Before I could answer, they started squealing again.

"He's so fit!" One of them squealed.

"He looks exquisite in those tight quidditch trousers" another giggled.

I sneaked a glance at him flying in the air and the trousers were pretty snug. They clung to his shapely legs and I could see where the twins were coming from... not that I stared at him or anything haha...

"I know right! I would give anything for him to fuck me" one sighed dreamily.

Pretty much all the boys groaned and covered their ears.

"Him or Theodore Nott" another squealed.

"Mm yeah, he's fit as well. Not to mention, very easy on the eyes. He's really hot" they laughed.

I looked around for Theo and he was playing for chaser as well, he was doing really well actually. I smiled a little.

Nearly 20 minutes had past and the snitch was no where in sight. People, including the Slytherins were getting frustrated. Finally, there was a glinting of gold above someone's head on the Ravenclaw stand.

It slowly moved but Malfoy still didn't spot it. He slowly oscillated and his face lit up with determination when he spotted it. He lurched forward but the snitch flew towards us.

It skipped above our heads and Malfoy was racing towards us. The snitch was suspended in midair but just as he was about to catch it, it came to rest in front of my face.

He zoomed towards me and because I was sitting in the front row, with an outstretched hand he caught it in his long, pale fingers.

The crowd cheered but he stayed in place. He slowly pulled the snitch towards him and looked at me with his quick silver eyes.

"Thanks" his velvety voice washed over me.

He smirked at me and gave his trademark wink before flying away. I rolled my eyes and slumped back in my chair.

"You're so lucky Hermione!" Parvati said jealously.

I snorted in a very un-lady like fashion. "What? Because he gave me that infuriating smirk and that stupid wink he throws to about every girl before organising a sex date with them?"

"Yes! That smirk is sexy! Half of England love him and his smirk, he's in nearly every copy of witch weekly!" Someone squealed.

"Well good for him" I said sarcastically.

"You're crazy Hermione!" They said.

"Trust me, I know" I muttered.

Little did they know, I was referring to my seducing plans.
