Hermione tried to keep up with Draco she really did. He was pulling her along at a brisk pace and she fumbled and stumbled a bit. 
"What is your problem Granger now?"
Draco asked as she stumbled and she fell right on her bum and glared up at him. She thought it was obvious,some Head boy he was right?
"obviously I am not tall and my strides are not as log as yours. Plus I am wearing heels!"
Hermione said as she got up and crossed er arms defiantly over her chest and looked at him levely.
Draco for a moment was quiet and then he said without emotion. "Let me see your shoes Granger."
As he did and she was sitting, he walked over and grabbed her shoes off her feet. He looked a them a moment and then slammed them on a nearby rock and broke the heels cleanly off.
Hermione who was in shock still from him grabbing her shoes had not yet even acknowledged that Draco Malfoy had just destroyed her favorite pair of Manolo Blahniks.
She just stared at him as he walked back over put the shoes on her lap and said gruffly. "Hop on, We don't have time to waste and I for one want out og this blasted Jungle. And don't be stupid they are only a pair of shoes. Besides,they are last season."
He replied as he turned and knelt down for her to get on his back. Hermione was pissed and even thought of taking and hitting him with her newly ruined pair of 300 pound shoes but realized despite his attitude. He was right.
As much as she hated to admit it. For once Draco Malfoy was right.
Draco growled in frustration. He turned to look at her. "if your done now, let's go before it gets dark. And mind you hold on because if I drop you I'm not coming back got it!"
He said as Hermione put on the shoes and she wrapped her arms around his neck and He stood up as she was barely holding on. To her surprise he lifted her easily and then he began to run.
Hermione closed her eyes and for a moment the dream came back to her thoughts. She bit her lip as she remembered it. She wondered why he had to be such an arrogant arse all the time and how she was going o put up with it all.
Draco ran but he slowed down a bit and soon they came to a clearing and the beach and he went down on his knees panting. Hermione opened her eyes as he had turned her to look at him. "You can let go now Granger.."
He replied as he met her eyes and for a moment despite his panting and loss of breath,he felt the urge to kiss her. He however groaned as she slid off and looked at him as if he burned or hexed her or something.
Draco knew she didn't like him and he didn' t like her either. But the look she gave him and their actions earlier on the train, he wondered what was wrong with him.
He wanted to more than kiss her and the dream he had proved that. He licked his lips a moment as he turned to look at the ocean a moment.
::No need to remember that dream, it was just a dream I don't want Granger that way. She's not even pretty.::
This was his thought as the sun began to settle down a bit and a tropical breeze hit him. For a moment he stood there in the quietness and just relaxed.
Hermione sat down on the sand and looked at his profile. She wondered why he had tried to help her. It wasn't like the Draco Malfoy she knew to offer her help unless he got somethng in return.
What would he want?
Hermione despite the repulsion the thoughts filling her head now, was slightly excited at the possibilities.
:: God I wonder if anyone is looking for us?::
She thought as she drew her knees up and just buried her head on her knees.
Draco noticed the silence and wondered why she wasn't yelling or talking as she normally did. He turned to look at her and sighed.
::Crying, I can't stand a woman who cries. Dammit! Stop crying Granger..::
Draco thought as he approached her. He knelt down and lifted her face to look at him.
He noticed her eyes, she hadn't been crying but the look in them drew him to her and he paused not ready to pursue what his mind and body wanted him to do. "What do you want Malfoy?"
Hermione asked in a defeated tone as she looked at him. She knew she was attracted to him, this man who drove her crazy and hated her so much. It made her sick,she was sick but it didn't feel bad. "Draco"
He replied as he just looked at her. "My name is Draco Hermione and I think what I want is for you and I to not kill each other. So truce for now atleast.?"
He asked.
