Hermione walked into the corner of the balcony of the party room she had hired. She was wearing a sexy red strapless dress. She was having a break from the party happening in the room. She had just finished her education at Hogwarts and she is now a fully qualified witch. She is celebrating with all her old fellow 7th year students.

She and Ron had broken after she found him snogging with Lavender in the Gryffindor common room. It was terrible it looked like they were eating each others faces. Luckily she ran off because what they did after that would make her eyes burn. But she was over that now. She was quite happy though because on the train back to King Cross Station, she managed to put a spastic charm on Malfoy. She couldn't resist because he was being such a pain. Every time he tried to speak, his eyes rolled back and he would fall on the floor, put his arm across his upper body and thump his hand down on his chest. Also he spun around in circles on the floor, with his tongue sticking out. After begging her continuously for 15 minutes (through spastic attacks) she finally toke the charm off him.

Draco Malfoy came up behind her. She immediately said "what are you doing her Malfoy."

"Just having a break from the music, and what do you think your doing Granger?" He replied.

"Why would you care what I'm doing anyway?" She said in a disgruntled voice.

"I asked you a question it's your turn to answer" he said grinning.

"Fine, I am just getting some fresh air, but I don't need you watching me Malfoy, so PISS OFF" she shouted.

He chuckled, "what are you laughing about" she asked in a serious voice.

"You are very funny Granger, you know that" he said in a half laughing voice.

"So I don't care what you think Malfoy so fuck off because I don't want you around me," she bellowed.

"Granger seriously I was only trying to be nice and go and insult and abuse me," he replied in a disappointed voice.

"And so all the times you've insulted me and called me Mudblood, you think that never hurt," she remarked her eyes close to filling up with tears.

"Well you can't blame me it wasn't all my doing you know, Crabbe and Goyle always encouraged me and pushed me." He paused then continued "and it wasn't that nice when you punched my head into the rock and threated me Hermione."

"Oh you know why I did that, because you were being a bastard like always Draco," she answered.

They both just realized what they had done; they called each other by their first names.

They didn't say a word for about a minute until Malfoy broke the silence.

"Listen Granger I'm sorry for how I caused your school life to be miserable ok. Now I've said I'm sorry so it's your turn to say sorry and except my apology."

"Fine she said after a well I'm sorry and I accept your apology."

"Granger I think we should now stop calling each other by our last names, he said slowly.

"Fair enough," she replied.

"Well see ya Hermione I am going to head off now" He announced.

"Well goodbye um… Draco," she said hesitantly.
