A/N: I recommend listening to Dead Girl Walking from Heathers (a musical) before reading this, because this story is based on the song. I couldn't get it out of my head, so here it it. Disclaimer I don't own any characters all hail JKR
Hermione was settling in to living with Draco just fine. Sure, they had their arguments that often ended in various ghosts or professors intervening before they destroyed the whole school, but sharing a common room with your nemesis for 6 years does that. Although the accommodation wasn't ideal, that's what came with the title of head girl, and she was going to have to get used to it.
Around mid November, Draco wandered into the common room shirtless. Hermione was working when he sat down in front of the fire with a cup of coffee. She looked up and was surprised to find that the pale, skinny head boy was actually quite muscular. Well, she reasoned with herself, that's what years of Quidditch does to a person, admiring the way the firelight caught the contours of his biceps...
"Enjoying the view Granger? " an amused voice cut through the silence. Hermione flushed when she realised that yes, she had been checking out Draco Malfoy. " Well, if you'd maintain a proper dress code it wouldn't be so... so..." She trailed off, motioning to his naked torso. "Distracting?" he grinned. Hermione slammed her book shut and gathered up her parchment. "Ugh, you're ridiculous" she huffed, stalking to her room.
The next day, she went to Ginny for advice. "So you didn't do it on purpose, he just appeared and started sparkling in all his hunky glory?" Ginny said. "Well, yeah. But I need to show him it's just not acceptable to distract me from my work like that. Any ideas?" Hermione looked up at Ginny from the sofa, and became worried when she saw Ginny's evil plan smile, and let out a small "eep". Ginny sat down next to Hermione and grinned "Well, I think you should give him a taste of his own medicine." Seeing her friend's outraged expression, she added "No, don't walk around topless, unless you want to that is. All I'm saying is that you need to go out to Hogsmede, but wear something that shows off your amazing legs and make sure he sees it. He'll go wild, I promise" She winked at Hermione.
Saturday came around and Hermione stared nervously at her reflection in the mirror. Her cream cable knit jumper was tucked into the mid-thigh length tartan skirt, which she was trying to pull down to her knees, with no avail. She and Ginny had a plan. Harry, Ron, Luna, Neville and Ginny would all go up to meet Hermione, make a lot of noise and lure Draco out of his room. Then the fun begins. A loud knock was heard on the common room door. Hermione glanced at her reflection one last time, and walked down the stairs to the portrait hole. She let them in and hugged each of her friends. "It's go time!" Ginny whispered. Luna's dreamy voice was heard over the chatting of their friends "Hermione, are you meeting with someone special? There are Nargles everywhere. And you are wearing a new skirt" Hermione laughed. "Nope. I just felt like wearing something seasonal today" she replied, "I'll go make coffee" and with that, she walked over to the kitchenette area and put the kettle on to boil.
The good thing about being Ron's sister was that Ginny knew how to set him off. She started by mentioning that the Holyhead Harpies were the best Quidditch team, and very soon Ron, Harry and Ginny were having a heated discussion over which team was the best. Neville and Luna joined in, and soon all six were loudly chatting and laughing, coffee long forgotten. The noise had been enough to get Draco out of his room. His door was violently opened and a sleep ridden and very pissed off Draco Malfoy was standing in the doorway. "Could you Gryffindores keep it down. Some people are trying to enjoy their lie in." Annoyance laced his voice, and he looked ready to put a particularly nasty curse on Harry when Hermione stepped forwards. "Well if some people looked at the clock, they would realise that it's half past ten which is past lie in hours. Ya snooze, ya lose" And with that, she ushered her friends out of the common room. Ginny gave her a thumbs up, but before closing the door, she looked back at Draco who was still standing in the doorway. "Are you okay?" Hermione asked. "You seem... distracted" she saw the confused look on his face turn into a smirk before she closed the door. The game was on.
