"Weeks?" Hermione smiled. She liked the sound of that. She truly wanted to spend time with Draco and getting to know him on a more personal level. It didn't matter if that included time in the research lab, or in the library, or just holding each other.

She desired knowing him on a sexual level, but for her, there was more than that desire.

And when he leaned into kiss her, his hand between her legs, Hermione felt herself arch to him in response. He had such an effect on her.

That was why there was no fear or uncertainty when he had his wand at her throat. She nodded, not sure what he wanted to cast, and there were too many options to come up with a clear thought in her head. The main sensation there was excitement.
