Draco felt like he was going insane. It had been weeks since his and Hermione's encounter and Hermione was doing everything possible to tease him. Or at least, that was what it felt like. Every time she flicked her hair, or nibbled on the end of her quill, he thought his brain would explode. No girl had ever had him under her thumb like this. He was completely under Hermione's spell, and there was nothing he could do about it.

'This is ridiculous,' Draco thought as he found himself practically drooling because Hermione had crossed her legs. 'Girls are supposed to slaver over me, not the other way around! There's got to be something I can do.' He tried to think of plans.

'Love potion? Nah, she'd notice straight away.'

'Make her jealous using other girls? No, tried that last week, didn't work.'

Suddenly, he had an idea for a brilliant plan, and he grinned so wickedly, that Blaise flinched away from him.

Hermione rubbed sun lotion onto her legs. She loved sunny days like this when she could get out of Hogwarts and go to the beach. She could even study and get a tan at the same time. She flipped over onto her stomach and rummaged through her bag for her books.

'Huh?' she thought as she pulled out a little bottle.

There was a tag on it. 'Dear Hermione,' it read 'Knew you'd be going to the beach today, so I made a potion for you. Just drink it and you'll have a tan within an hour. Love, Ginny.'

Hermione smiled at her friend's thoughtfulness, and swigged the potion back. 'Strange," She thought as she lay on her stomach 'I don't remember telling Ginny I was going to the beach.'

She didn't see Draco Malfoy smiling as he watched her from a beach hut window.

Hermione jolted awake. 'I must've drifted off when I was reading.' She thought. Suddenly, she felt a lurch in her stomach and she felt herself break into a sweat. She looked around the beach, and shocked herself when she licked her lips at the sight of a fat, balding man. 'What the hell?!' she sat up. She looked around again, and saw a sweaty jogger running through the waves. She felt a rush of heat between her legs. She squeaked in shock and stood up. A wrinkly man with a moustache. Gorgeous. She looked around frantically. 'I've got to get away from here.' She thought, running towards a nearby beach hut. She got inside, slammed the door, and leaned against it, breathing heavily. 'Oh, god. It's getting worse.' She thought. 'I'll end up shagging that beach ball in a minute.' She shut her eyes and tried not to think of the pleasant feelings she was getting.

"Hello there, Granger." Hermione's eyes snapped open at the sound of his voice. Malfoy was standing not a foot away from her. "You look a bit flustered," he commented. "And I can guess why. You swigged back that lust potion I planted in your bag like it was water."

Hermione's eyes widened. Malfoy grinned and raked his eyes appreciatively over her bikini. "Give it another minute and the effects will really kick in. You won't be able to help yourself; you'll have to shag the nearest object. Which happens to be me."

Hermione twisted frantically on the doorknob. It didn't move. Malfoy tapped his wand against his finger. "Locking charm. And dear me, you've forgotten your wand. No undoing it anytime soon."

Hermione yelped as she felt an uncontrollable urge rush through her. She looked down at the floor, shaking. When she looked up, her eyes were filled with something Malfoy couldn't put a name to. She growled, and then she jumped on him.

Malfoy winced as he landed heavily on the floor, but he quickly forgot his pain as Hermione savagely attached her lips to his throat. She kissed his neck fiercely, biting and sucking. She snarled and ripped his shirt open, kissing him down the planes of his chest. "Herm-" he said, but she kissed him hard on the lips.

"Shut up." She growled and tugged off his jeans.

Within a few minutes, they were both completely naked. Malfoy picked Hermione up and slammed her against the wall. She howled and scratched her nails down his back. "Did I hurt you?" Malfoy asked.

"I don't care." She snarled and pushed them both back down onto the floor. They rolled around on the floor and didn't notice the sound of splintering wood. They continued kissing passionately, and didn't hear the screams. But they did notice the sharp sting of freezing water. Malfoy stood up, with Hermione still clinging to his neck and with her legs wrapped around his waist. He looked at her face, which was white as she stared towards the beach. The cold water seemed to have shocked her out of her animal-like state. Malfoy followed her gaze and saw everyone on the beach staring at them with their mouths wide open. He also noted the gaping hole in the side of the beach hut, the blood covering himself and Hermione, and the hill which they must've rolled down into the ocean. He looked back at Hermione and met her wide eyed gaze. He grinned. "Best. Sex. Ever."

Hermione whimpered and quickly ducked under the water. Draco followed her and they swam to a rocky outcrop by a cliff, out of sight of the gobsmacked crowd. Luckily, the water was shallow enough to stand up in, and Hermione bobbed up out of the water with her wet hair plastered to her face. She glared at Draco.

"What?" he blinked innocently.

"You bloody well know what! How could you slip me a lust potion, you bastard!? And then we, oh Merlin, we-"

"Shagged like rabbits?"

"Shut up! It's not funny!"

"I never said it was. Funny? No. Fan-freaking-tastic? Yes."

"Shut up!"

"I'm paying you a compliment! Look, I've been with a lot of girls-"

"Understatement of the century."

"Will you let me finish? I've been with a lot of girls, but none of them were half as good as you."

Hermione snorted.

"I'm being serious. You've made me feel things I've never felt before. I think... I think I might love you."

Hermione's eyes widened, and then narrowed. "Yeah, right."

"I mean it! I think I love you."

"You're telling me this whilst we're stood naked in the ocean?"

"Will you take me seriously? I think I love you, and I'm going to make you feel the same."

"How? Slipping me a love potion? You know that wouldn't work, the effects wouldn't be real, and they'd wear off."

"No, I'm going to do this." And with that, he pulled her to him and kissed her. Hermione was resistant at first, but after a moment, she wrapped her arms around him and twined her tongue with his. "Draco..." she whispered against his lips.

He pulled away. "When did you start calling me by my first name?"

"Just now. And Draco?"

"Yeah?"

"Shut up and kiss me some more."
