So That's What They Do

"Well," said a very uncomfortable voice.

Both Draco and Hermione turned, gasped seeing Dumbledore's back to them.  They quickly grabbed their clothes and hastily pulled them on.

"Im very very embarassed,"  Draco said, grasping Hermione's hand.  

"I'm beyond mortified," Hermione spoke, head down, unable to meet the Headmaster's gaze.

"Hmmm quite. Well, I can see that we have succeeded in our...mission in creating ….hmmph...ummm...house unity.  But..perhaps...well, perhaps...this would be a good time to...well...say good night." Dumbledore said, looking slightly over their heads.

Draco took a few steps towards him.  "I’m so embarassed but also a little mad or more than a little frustrated because I almost go to…"

"Yes, Malfoy.  Yes. quite. Why don’t you say goodbye to Miss Granger."

"I don’t want to say goodbye. I really want to ask her to meet me later so we can finish. I want to be with her always."  Draco turned back to stare at her. 

"I’m afraid everything will go back the way it was. I don’t want it too.  I want to be with Draco."

Hermone reached out and touched his face.  He bent down and kissed her, a few small butterfly kisses, there and gone, then a few more, his breathing picking up, his tongue licking her lips. 

"I think I want to be in love with you." He grasped the back of her head, holding her close as he kissed her deeply, Dumbledore be damned.

"I think I..would like to try."

"I want to lay down with you, even though the Headmaster is here."

"I really want you to do that."

"Oh dear.  Well...,"  Dumbledore turned to the huge man standing further in the bushes with his hands over his eyes.  "I guess we figured out what skrewts do…"

"Em so sorry Dumbleore.  I had no idea they was lecherous little creetures."

"No, no Hagrid.  The skrewts don’t emit any kind of lust potion or spell or charm. They in fact, at least when the moonlight is upon them, emit a truth telling song, that compels those who hear it to speak the truth and act upon that truth."

They walked back towards the castle, leaving Draco and Hermone to their skrewt seranede and their moonlight confessions.

"But sadly the truth is not a simple thing."
