Draco regarded her for a few moments before bending down to press an urgent kiss to her lips. Hermione could feel the gratefulness and relief in the way his tongue stroked against hers as she opened for him, his arms wrapping around her to hold her close. Hermione cupped his jaw, stroking his cheek with her thumb as he poured all his emotion into that kiss, accepting it without judgement and with equal fervour.
