Time is Running Out - Chapter Seven

Disclaimer: I really wish I owned Harry Potter but sadly I don’t.

Note: I must say I’m having a lot of fun writing this story and I’m soooooo very happy that everyone seems to like it. This chapter is the longest chapter I’ve ever written so I hope its good!!...I want to say thank you to angellic dragon, vampirelover2007, jessirose85 and Lya Darkfury for the reviews!...They make me very happy!

Hermione had been sitting in her room for the past four hours working on research. Okay I need a break before I go crazy!...A movie sounds fun!...oh shit I left my TV at home...I guess I’ll have to go get it.

She hopped out of her bed and grabbed her shoes. I should tell Draco where I’m going...just so he knows. She slipped her shoes on. “Deedee!” She called and with in seconds heard a pop from behind her near the door.

“Yes Miss. Granger.” she the small elf. Hermione turned around to look at her and she was in a new green dress.

“Call me Hermione and I really like your new dress!” Hermione told her with a big smile.

“Thank you Miss. Hermione. Master Draco gave it to me. What is it that you needed?” The small elf asked.

“Well thats very nice of him. Actually I wanted to know if he’s home right now?”

“Yes Miss. Granger. He is in his room.”

“Okay. Thank you very much!” Hermione ran around the other side of her bed to grab her wand. Deedee bowed her head and popped out.

Hermione quickly walked over to Draco’s room and knocked on the door. There was no answer so she knocked again. Still no answer. I hope he’s not hurt or any thing.

She knocked one more time. Still no answer, so she turned to walk away when she the door handle start to move. She quickly turned back around and waited for the door to open.

Draco was standing in front of her in just a towel. He had just gotten out of the shower. She could not help but stare. She watched as small bead of water traveled from his neck and down his broad firm chest to toned ab’s to his belly button. That’s when she noticed the small trail of hair the lead down but was stopped by the towel. Oh my god! He is so hot!...oh shut up Hermione...you do not thing he is hot!

Is she staring at me?? Draco thought as he looked at the woman standing in front of him. “You knocked?” he finally asked.

Hermione’s eyes snapped up to Draco’s. He has such beautiful eyes. There like a stormy gray with a steel blue ring around them that just makes them pop! She thought. “Oh...um...yeah.” She smiled at him. “I wanted to pick up a few things from home. Would you mind helping me?” She asked.

He saw a very faint red tint on her face. He chuckled and a small shiver went through he body. “Sure just let me get dressed. I’ll meet you down stairs.”

“Okay.” She said quickly turning around and walking away from his door. I can’t believe I was just staring a Draco Malfoy...But man did he look good in just that tow-...Stop thinking like that Hermione!!

After about 15 minutes Draco came walking down the stairs in very nice ropes. “Are you ready to go?” He asked.

“Actually I’ve changed my mind.” She told him.

“Oh...okay.” Did he sound disappointed? She asked herself. He turned around and started to walk toward the stairs that would lead him back to his room.

“No wait! Thats not what I meant!” She grabbed his hand before he could walk much farther. She was a little surprised because when they touched she could almost feel this electricity going through her. Can he feel that to? She then let his hand go.

He turned back around to look at her. “So you do want to go to your house?” He asked.

“No.” she told him. A look of confusion filled his face. “What I mean is no I don’t want to go to my house right now. We can do it later. Right now I...um...I want to take you some where.” She could tell by the look on his face that he was a little shocked.

“Um...okay.” he agreed. I wonder where she wants to take me??

“Good!” she said with a smile. She held out her hand to him which he grabbed. “Ready?” and with a nod of his head she apparated them.

Next thing they knew they were both standing in a very small empty bathroom stall. The lack of space caused them to be pushed up against each other.

“You wanted to bring me to a bathroom stall??” He asked. He was really confused now.

“Of course not silly!” She smiled at him. “I just didn’t want anyone to see us apparate here.”

“Well wizards see people apparating all the time. Why the hell would it matter?”

“Because, we’re not in wizards London.” She told him before finally opening the door to the stall. For once there was no one in the bath room.

“What?!” He asked following her out of the stall. “Where the hell are we?”

Hermione opened the bathroom door and walked out. Draco was right behind her. “We’re at a muggle mall!” she said happily.

Draco looked around him. There were stores and muggles everywhere! “Why are we here?” he asked in a not so happy tone.

“You said you wanted to try muggle cloths so come on!.” She grabbed his hand and pulled him into a mens clothing store. She walked up to the rack and started looking through all the cloths. She pulled our a shirt and handed it to him. “I think this would look great!.” she told him.

“I can pick out my own cloths.” he said his tone still not very happy.

“I know that.” She turned her head to look at him. “But these are muggle cloths and I like picking out things for people to try on.” He still did not look happy. “Fine...um...try on some of the things I pick out and I’ll let you pick out something for me to try on at any store you want.” Dracos smiled at that idea.

“Deal.” For such a smart girl she can be so stupid.

“I know what your thinking Malfoy. I am not trying on lingerie.” She started to look through the rack some more and moved to a new one.

Okay I take that back she is smart...But there are other...revealing things I can make her try on. A smirk spread across his face.

After about 30 minutes Hermione had picked out four or five outfits to try on. They walked toward the dressing rooms. Draco turned and whispered in her ear. “What do I do?”

She chuckled. “Go ask the lady for a room. Then you can change into the cloths from there, then come out and show me. I think you can figure out how to put the cloths on yourself.” She whispered into his ear. Her breath on the side of his neck sent a thrilling chill through out his body.

He turned around and did how he was instructed and ten minutes later he walked out. He was wearing nice black slacks with a dark emerald button up shirt untucked and nice black shoes. I agree these muggle cloths are much more comfortable and I think I look really good. Draco looked up to Hermione. She was staring at him and biting her bottom lip. I wonder what she’s thinking??

Oh wow! He looks so fucking sexy! Ropes are so lose so you cant see a lot but you sure as hell could now. Her eyes finally made it up to his face.

“So what do you think?” He finally asked her.

“Um...you look really good.” She said with a half smile. “Lets see the other stuff.” Over the next 30 minutes he tried on the rest of the cloths she picked out and decided to buy it all. He saw the look in her eye when he was in muggle cloths and he wanted her to look at him like that all the time.

“So it’s my turn now? Right?” Draco said as the two walked out of the store.

“That would be correct. But I’m only trying on one outfit.” the started to walk down the row of stores.

“I guess I’ll just have to pick something really good then.” He smiled. They looked around until he finally found the outfit he wanted her to try on.

“No Malfoy I am not trying that on.” She told him with no smile.

“Deals a deal Granger. All you said was no lingerie.” His smile grew as she frowned.

“Fine!” She grabbed the black dress out of his hands and walked to the dressing room.

This should be good. He thought as he waited for her outside the dressing room. After 15 minutes she finally walked out. Dracos jaw dropped to the floor when he first saw her but he quickly cloths his mouth. She was in a black dress with a low v cut neck line and fit her body like a glove. It almost looked like it was painted on and it went down to her mid-thigh.

Wow!! I had no idea she had such a hot body. I’m going to have to take a cold shower when I get home.

Hermione was afraid to look at Draco. Just relax. You look great and who cares what Malfoy thinks! With a deep breath she looked up and saw that he was staring at her will intense eyes. His eyes...there...so...intense...is he giving me “fuck me” eyes??...no...of course he’s not...is he?

Draco watched Hermione’s face as she turned a deep crimson red. He smiled at her and she smiled back. “Do you like it?” She asked.

“Um...I...um...I think you look...” HOT! “Very pretty.” If possible she blushed a little deeper before turning around and going back to the dressing room. She come out not to much later and bought the dress.

I think I might have to throw a party just to see her in that dress again. He said to himself.
