After spending a few hours at the Manor with Narcissa, Draco had to bring me back before more Death Eaters filled the house and anyone noticed that we were gone back at Hogwarts. We arrived back in the girl's bathroom that we had left in. Draco left first the check the hallways since it was passed curfew. He came back in letting me the coast was clear and we could head back to my dorm. Before we turned down any hall Draco had me hide that way if he was caught I wouldn't be caught along with him. I didn't mind but I know why he was doing it. As he looked around the last corner. I grabbed his wrist keeping him from going anywhere.

"What are you doing, Green?" He said looking back at me. I loved it when he used my last name. It reminded me of our 5th year, simpler times back then. God how it annoyed me then but I love it now. With my free hand, I slid my hand across his cheek. Cupping his face in my hand. Pulling his attention away from the halls and back to me.

"Anna.." He trailed off as I stood on my tippytoes and pressed my lips to his gently. As I went to pull away I stepped back on my heels opening my eyes to Draco's loving gaze. Then as if destiny called out upon us. Dracos lips dove back down onto mine as his hands slipped around to my waist and picked me up off the ground. I wrapped my legs around his waist as my back collided with the cobblestone wall behind me. My arms slipped around his neck as both of our mouths were gaping open for each other. With my back against the wall, he no longer needed to hold me up with both hands so he let one of his hands slide around to my thigh as his fingers dug into my skin. Every little kiss became more and more aggressive as I tugged at the hair on the back of his head. I unhinged my legs from behind him as he pushed away from the wall letting my feet come back to the floor. Both of our movements slow down as his fingers touch my waist, my forearms, my neck, and my cheeks. I slid my hands from his hair to his chest and lightly pushed him off of me. I leaned up against the wall as he stood there in front of me.

"I'm going to go with that was supposed to be a light-hearted kiss," Draco sighed as he grabbed the back of his neck.

"In a way, yes, but I like where it led," I giggled as I pushed myself off the wall and towards him, "Now if you'll excuse me. I need to go to bed before I get caught or even worse punished." As I pushed past him, I placed my hand on his chest and reached for his tie. Making him turn around with me as I walked away.

"I don't think you want either," He said turning around as his tie slowly slipped out of my fingers as I walked back into the hallway.

"Unless it by you," I teased as I walked down the hall now, "Remember our 5th year. I think you liked catching me and punishing me."

"Yes, I remember but I do recall there are more ways than just one that I can punish you with now."

"Don't get ahead of yourself," I giggled as I continued to walk down the halls back towards the common room door.

"Goodnight Green." He said as I reached the door.

"Goodnight Malfoy," I whispered as we kept eye contact. I pushed the door open and stepped in for the night. I slowly walked up to my dorm where Ginny was now fast asleep. I as changed into my pajamas all I could think about was the way things use to be and how they are now. How many things after changed in the past two years of not only my life but everyone around me. With everything going on lately, it felt good to be reminded of the old times. How we used to be before the Dark Lord ever played a part in our lives as well as everyone else's.

The following night Ginny, Luna, Neville, and I led a meeting for those who were against the Death Eaters in the Room of Requirement.

With more Death Eaters taking over the grounds every day now and Headmaster Snape constantly changing rules. Over half the school body went home. Mostly all muggle-born students. Some half-blood students left to go home as they no longer felt safe here at Hogwarts. Half-bloods stayed as Snape valued them all. Well for the purebloods everyone looked to us for protection. I remember being so sad sending home some first years but it was for their safety.

It was late when we got done with our meeting. We knew the Death Eaters would be roaming the halls. So, we had some of the older students escort the younger students back to their dorms while the four of us stayed back for a while making sure that our path to our dorms was clear. Ginny, Neville, and I walked with Luna back to the Ravenclaw dormitory dorms.

While Neville, Ginny, and I made our way to the dorm we saw a few Death Eaters roaming the halls. Before we knew it we were out running them and trying not to get caught. But that all failed when we were all dragged to Snape's office for punishment.

"Roaming the halls late at night. What is the meaning of this?" Snaped asked as the three of us stood there in front of him as he sat at his desk. None of us spoke.

"Please leave," He ordered at the death eaters, "Now!" Snape's voice boomed in his office as we all stood there scared. The three of us watched them leave.

"Why aren't you in your dorms?"

"Why is Hogwarts crawling with Death Eaters?" Ginny asked.

"If I could tell you I would. Right now you all need to be safe. I don't care if you have a group formed. Stay out of sight."

"So we aren't in trouble?" I asked as he made his way around his desk.

"No, but next time you will be. Now go to your dorms and stay there until the morning," He said as he shooed us away all away.
