Hogsmeade Visit *Edited*

Oh my gosh, guys!!! I'm updating twice in the same day!!

WOW!!! You guys REALLY owe now...

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[Okay, it's the day before the Christmas Hogsmeade visit.

Ron and Harry went to the Burrow for Christmas break.]

"Hermione?" Draco asked. Hermione was deeply engrossed

in 'Hogwarts, A History' for the fifty-eleventh time.

"Hmm?" she responded.

"Put the book down, please."

"What?"

"Let go of the book."

"Okay. You have my attention." She put the book on the

table in front of her. They were in the common room by the

fire.

"Do you want to come with me to Hogmeade tommorow?"

"I have to, don't I? Whether I want to or not."

"What's that supposed to mean?"

"I'm kidding." she giggled.

"Okay. But, yeah, do you want to grab a bite to eat in the

Three Broomsticks and go shopping and stuff? Again, my

treat."

"Sure. Why not? We have to be in the Three Broomsticks

anyway, to make sure no one underage is drinking."

.:Next Day:.

Hermione got up and took a shower, taking care to tell

Draco. She didn't want another incident like the one when

she walked in on Draco.

After that, she put on some warm jeans and a sweater and

went to the Great Hall for breakfast. By then, it was nine

o'clock. Draco joined her a half hour later, and they made

their way to Hogsmeade.

"Where shall we go first? Surely you don't need another

bra." teased Draco.

"Draco! Let's go to the Three Broomsticks first. It'll be

nice and warm in there..." answered Hermione.

They walked in to the inviting pub and Draco said, "I'll

get the drinks. Stay here." He walked toward the crowded

bar and Hermione sat a near by table. He returned a moment

later with two mugs of steaming Butterbeer. They drank up

and Hermione got sleepy from all the warmth. Fearing she

would fall asleep if she sat down any longer, she told

Draco, "I'm going to go get something more to drink. Be

right back."

Hermione stepped over to the bar and asked Madame

Rosmerta, who was cleaning glasses, "Do you have anything

that could wake me up a bit?"

Madame Rosmerta said, without looking up, "Of course,

dear. Hold on a second." She reached for a clean mug and

filled it with a steaming gold liquid and sprinked in a few

droplets of a bubbling orange liquid.

"There you go, dear. That'll be two Sickles." Hermione

gave her two silver coins and walked back to Draco, cup in

hand.

"What's that?" Draco asked.

"Madame Rosmerta says it'll wake me up, and I need it."

With that, she took a big gulp, and it was wonderful. The

drink burned her throat a bit, but only for a moment. It

tasted like Butterbeer and some kind of spice, mixed with

something really powerful she couldn't name.

"Is it good?" asked Draco curiously. Hermione giggled.

"Yeah. Here, have a bit." she said. Draco reached for the

mug and took a drink. His face lit up, and Hermione knew

he liked it too.

"Wow, that's really good!" Draco shouted.

Hermione took it back and said, "You can go get some if you

like." Draco nodded and walked to the bar, pointing at

Hermione to indicate what he wanted. He came back with a

mug of the substance and as soon as he sat down, he took a

giant gulp.

"Mmmmm, that's really good." Draco said. Hermione took

another drink of hers. She giggled madly, although she had

no clue what was funny. The people around them looked at

the couple and then quickly looked away, not wanting to be

caught staring.

Draco and Hermione continued drinking from their mugs and when they finished, they left them on the table and stumbled out of the pub.

"Wha'd'you wanna do now?" Draco asked, his words slurring.

"I'o know..." answered Hermione, her speech just as messed

up. She knew she was drunk, but only a tiny part of her

registered what that meant.

"Let's go back to the common room, 'Mione." Draco said.

"'Kay..." agreed Hermione. They walked back to the castle,

tripping over things every now and then and earning stares

from other students heading back, also. Hermione giggled

to the extent of insanity, and Draco walked with a stupid

grin on his face.

Once to the common room, Hermione said, "Draco, what'd'you

wanna do now? Ahm bored..."

"Me too." He walked over and started kissing her.

They pulled apart after a few minutes and Hermione

asked, "What's thafor?"

"I dunno. Hey, 'Mione, you still got that bra? Yahknow,

that last'un you tried on that one day?"

"Yeah. I got it on right now."

"Cen I see't again?"

"Sure." She took off her shirt, barely aware of what she

was doing. Draco stared, but Hermione didn't

really realize what he was looking at. She kissed him,

with more force than he had used, and they moved to

Hermione's bedroom. They undressed each other and moved to

the bed.

[A/N: We all know what happened next, so I'm not going to

go into great detail. If you're a perv, go to /B_Bootyful2

to find out what happened.]

.:Next Day:.

Draco woke up, feeling horrible and incredibly happy at the

same time. He opened his eyes and saw who was next to him,

and his panic suddenly arose. He slowly sat up, careful

not to move the sheets, for they were covering up

Hermione. He saw their clothes on the floor and his fear

was confirmed. So they had done it. But, why? he asked

himself. Think back, come on, remember. Okay, something

about being sleepy. Got a different drink. So they had

gotten drunk. That was it. He only hoped it had been

Hermione's choice, not his. He prayed that he had not

broken his promise to himslef and pressured her into

anything. He quickly threw on his clothes and walked out

of the common room, through the castle and out to the

grounds. Draco seated himself below the tree by the lake,

the tree he had thought of as "Our Tree." He hoped it

still could be.
