"You're distracted"

Hermione groaned

"Am not"

"Are too"

"Am not"

Draco walked up to her, she rose her chin to look at him in the eyes

Those damn butterflies hadn't left her stomach since her conversation with Ginny a week ago, she had tried to reason and dismiss it, they were just friends

Why wouldn't the bloody butterflies leave her alone? Especially when he looked at her with those silver eyes?

Hermione sighed

"I may be a little distracted" she confessed "let's just dance, no routine, let's just have fun" she suggested

Draco raised an eyebrow at her, she blushed red and coughed awkwardly

"I mean...I've been training nonstop, I'm getting tired of the same routine, maybe if I change it up it'll help" she told him

He didn't say anything, she opened her mouth to tell him to forget it but the words died in her throat when she saw his hand extend, she smiled and took it

They started off with small, simple steps, it wasn't until the music changed that they closed the distance, Hermione giggled when he spun her, when she dropped back he caught her, he pulled her into his chest and she felt as if her body was on fire, they walked backwards before he spun her back and dipped her

He slowly brought her up and Hermione entangled her fingers into his hair — it felt like fine silk — as they finished their dance, their breaths combined, their noses brushed against one another and she could see the blue specks in his eyes

"I-I think I should..." Hermione whispered, pulling away from Draco's body

She took first position and the music started playing again, she felt Draco watching every move and her nerves were ignited and she felt as if her body was on fire

She was going to murder Ginny for opening her big mouth

After the unbearable session finished, Hermione turned to him

"How was that?"

"Better, although you still need to practice your Tour en l'air" Draco stated

Hermione nodded and grabbed her towel to dry her face from sweat

"Any plans for a tonight?" She asked him

"I'm spending the night with Blaise and Theo, you?"

Hermione felt a pit in her stomach

"Oh...well do try not to get too drunk" she joked, Draco chuckled

"And if I do?" Draco smirked

"Then I do hope you don't wake me up" 

Draco grabbed his own towel and playfully smacked her with it, she laughed and copied him

They finished packing their things and left the studio, they both made their way towards the head dorms

"Have fun with Nott and Zabini" she smiled and walked towards Ginny's room

She closed the door and looked at Ginny

"I hate you"

"What have I done now?" Ginny asked her, Hermione threw her bag on the floor and walked into the bathroom to change into her night clothes

"You messed with my head!" Hermione said when she exited

Ginny smirked, Hermione grabbed a throw pillow and threw it at her
