"Hermione, wake up we're here." Said a soft voice from beside me. I brought my head up and noticed it was Draco. I wanted to gag.

He helped me get out of the car. I turned and looked at my new home. It looked much like Hogwarts castle but rather on the small scale. I walked up the steps with Malfoy in front of me and went inside.

"Well Hermione, seeing as it is so late we'll talk about rules and such tomorrow morning. Right now off to bed. Draco will show you were you guys are sleeping." With that Narcissa was off with Lucius to what I assumed would be their rooms.

I was walking tiredly behind Draco when suddenly I stopped. A thought had just entered my mind. I WAS SHAREING A ROOM WITH DRACO! I mentally smacked my self in the head. Of course I would be staying with Draco. Just hope fully we would have separate beds. When Malfoy opened up the door my worst fears were realized. There was only one king size bed in the middle of the room. I wanted to cry. It was bad enough that I was being forced to marry him but did they really have to make me sleep with him?

I crossed the room to the bed, wait, correction, my bed (this will take some getting use to) and sat down. I took off my shoes and went to my closet. All of my clothes were neatly put away on one side and I saw Malfoy's on the other. I grabbed my pj's.

"Where's the bathroom?" I asked.
Malfoy pointed to another door and I walked through it. When I got into the bathroom I had to splash cold water on my face. "Ok calm down. Maybe there's a way you could get out of this." I changed my clothes and put my skirt and shirt in the laundry basket. Instantly they disappeared.

I shook my head. There was going to be a lot of things to get use to.

When I walked back out to our room (I can feel my food coming up right now) Malfoy was sitting on top of the covers in black silk (guessing here I never in a million years would touch them!) boxers with green snakes on them. He was scratching away at a piece of parchment. I watched his hand glide across the paper stopping every few words to think about what he was going to write next. Then it continued. I looked from his hand up to his muscled arms to his flat chest where his muscles were outlined and glimmering with the light from the fire. His pale blonde hair fell over his face. I started to feel my knees go weak again and I had to balance my self on the mantle.
Draco looked up at me.

"Are you sure you're ok you seem to be falling a lot." He said.

"I would be fine if I didn't have to marry a twitchy little ferret like you!" I yelled back at him.

He set down whatever he was writing and stood up. He walked over to me and looked down.

"Well Granger I would call you a Mudblood but seeing as that's not true anymore, you still are the stuck up little bookworm Potter groupie." He said.

My face was red hot with anger. How dare that little twerp call me a Potter groupie!!! He knew nothing of Harry, nothing.

"You know if you took two seconds out of your pathetic little life to get to know him instead of torturing him, and me for that matter, you would see what a great and decent (unlike you) guy he is!" I tried keeping my voice calm.

"You I will stop torturing you, Potter on the other hand is a special case."

He walked back over to our bed and laid down. I was still standing there seething. How could I have thought a few minutes ago that the twitchy little pureblooded ferret was hot!?! Malfoy rolled over.

"Are you coming to bed or are you going to stand there all night?" He asked.

I just stared at him. He shrugged and laid back down. I wanted to hit him. Of course I would have to come to bed sometime. I couldn't stand there all night. Sighing I walked over to my bed (no more of this our business, Merlin him self couldn't make me marry that ferret.) and crawled in. I rested my head on my pillow and stared at the door. A door to freedom I couldn't walk through. My eyelids started to fall down and I was finally asleep.

"Baby, please be alright. Don't leave me.... Please come back. Come back" I said through tears to the face that I was holding in my hands. The face belonged to Draco.
"Draco please come back, I need you, she needs you." I said sobbing, clutching the body of my dead husband.

A little girl walked over to me a knelt down next to the body. She looked at him and then at me.

"Mommy, is Daddy going to be alright?" she asked me.
Right then a bunch of people in dark robes came. There was a green flash of light and everything went black.

I sat up in bed breathing heavily. I looked around me. It took me a second to realize that I was in my room at Malfoy manor. Draco! I looked over and he wasn't there. I panicked. I jumped out of bed and went down stairs. There was noise coming from the kitchen. As I walked in I saw a figure bending over something. I walked up behind him and put my hands on either side of his face.

"If you move I'll snap your neck." I whispered into the person's ear

"Then who would you marry?" The voice said back.

My breath caught. It was Malfoy!! I slid my hands down from his face to his abdomen and wrapped my arms around him. Thank Merlin he was still alive.

"Wow Hermione I thought you hated me." He said while he placed one of his cold hands against mine.

My breath caught. Did he just say my name?

"Did you just... just.... Call me by my first name?" I stammered.

He turned around while still in my grasp and smiled down at me.

"What other name would I call you?"

I stood there lost in his eyes for what seemed like forever. I didn't see the Malfoy that had tormented for six years. All I saw was Draco. A Draco that wanted to make this work. A Draco that wanted to protect me.

"So why did you come down stairs?" He asked me.

I let go of him and walked over to the counter and jumped up on the counter.

"You really want to know?" I asked.

Draco nodded. I began to tell him the whole story.
