Smoke billowed from the train while it sat in king cross station, waiting for this year's students to return. It was an amazing sight to see; clean, pristine, beautiful; so many words could describe it.

The impending students slowly started to trickle on to platinum 9 ¾. All who arrived were plagued with sadness and heartache due to so many people who lost their lives the previous year. Standing on the platform waiting for her friends for them to begin their journey of their final year was, Hermione Granger. Though technically, last year was in fact their seventh and final year, the golden trio was out hunting horcrux most of last year. Headmistress McGonagall allowed anyone who wished to redo their previous year were allowed to. She thought it would allow the students who were neglected good teaching last year to catch up with the rest of society.

"Hermione!" Ginny Weasley came barreling down the platform towards her.

"Ginny! How are you?" Hermione asked while embracing her best friend.

"Amazing, and you'll never guess what happened after you left" she asked jumping up and down like a piece of popcorn just waiting to pop.

"What?"

"Harry proposed to me!" She said sticking her hand out to show me her engagement ring.

"Congratulations, It truly is beautiful." Though it did make me happy that two of my best friends in the world were finally getting their happy ending. It sadden me when it brought back memories of Ron and I. We broke up about two weeks. We just weren't right for each other and we realized that as soon as we started dating; constant fighting, no sparks; it just wasn't right. The rest of the extended Weasley family was making their way down the platform at a much slower pace.

"Hello Mr. and Mrs. Weasley. So good to see you." I said

"Good to see to Hermione." Mrs. Weasley replied. You could tell that the war had put a heavy load on the family. There was not really a spark left in their eyes, especially George's.

"Hi, Harry. By the way, I believe congratulations are in order."

"Thank you, Hermione"

I turned to Ron but didn't say a thing. I just didn't have anything to say. Our breakup hadn't ended well.

***FlashBack***

Ron and I were sitting outside staring at the sky. It was a sunny day out and their barely any clouds in sight.

"Ron can I talk to you about something."

"Yah."

"Where exactly are we planning on going with this relationship?"

Ron suddenly sat up and looked at me with a questioning look. "What do you mean?"

"You know what I mean, are we planning on this being a serious relationship?"

"What do you like someone else?" Ron said jumping with a furious expression stretch across his face.

"No!" I said standing up putting a comforting hand on his shoulder.

"Then what brought this up, all of a sudden?"

"You know that things just haven't been feeling right. Ron we're always fighting and if we're not we're mad at each other. Then the fact that there really is not spark between us, it's just not there."

"No spark! Hermione what the heck are you talking about?"

"You know what I mean and you just won't bloody admit it, you been feeling it too. I know.." Ron slowly raised his hand and slapped me across the face. I know that's going to leave a bruise.

"Don't you dare tell what I know, Granger!" I couldn't say anything, Ron never had become this violent, even when he was furious, he never hit anyone. Not even Malfoy! My eyes slowly began to well up with tears. Tears began to trickle down my cheeks as it started to rain. The expression on his face shifted from one of anger to guilt. "Hermione, I'm sorry. I've just been under a lot of stress lately and didn't mean a single thing a just said let alone did. I am so sorry." He wrapped his arms around my waist while I cried into his shoulder. Once all the tears had dried up and nothing was left, I took a small step back to get a good look at Ron.

"Maybe you're right," Ron said "Maybe were just not meant to be."

"So does this mean this is the end?"

"I'm guessing so" We stood there staring at each other for a good five minutes, till I decided it was time to go inside. I trudged my way up to my room and slowly began packing my things. I decided I'm leaving tomorrow morning. There are things that I need to get done. Things I need to get settled.

***Flashback End***

Tentatively I slowed made my way into Ron embrace, returning his hug.

"Hermione, I am so sorry about everything that happened the other day. I promise it will never happen again. I just don't know what came over. I guess stress really does create monsters." Ron gave a strained laugh.

"I forgave you Ron. The moment you first said you were sorry."

Stepping back, I ran into someone who was trying to maneuver their way through the crowd of eager students. Turning around I found a blond haired boy scurrying to pick everything up off the floor. Kneeling down on the floor I began helping the boy pick everything up.

"I sorry, I should have been paying more attention to my surroundings." The blond boy didn't reply. I don't even think he registered the fact that I was there. "Hello?" He finally looked up at me.

Grey stormy, emotionless eyes were staring back. "Draco?" I ask tentatively

He grabbed everything from my arms and stood up off the ground. "I apologize for my incompetent behavior and not looking where I was going. I'm sorry for interrupting, I'll just be on my way." Draco started continuing making his way up to the front of the train

"That was a little weird." Harry commented

"Oddly out of character"

After giving last minute hugs and good buys to our friends and family we made our way towards the train. Hulling out luggage on board we searched for an empty compartment. Sadly we couldn't find one we ended up sitting in one that only had a single occupant.

The boy had his hood up and was leaning up against the window, purposely looking away from the entrance.

"May we join you?" The boy made no move to tell us wither or not, so we were taking that as a yes. We all clambered into the small compartment and took our respective seats on either sides after putting our luggage on the shelves. Ron and I were facing Harry and Ginny who were snogging each other like there was not tomorrow.

"Get a room!" all three of us yelled. It suddenly got quiet while all of us looked at the boy who was now back in his previous position up against the window. Ron, Harry, and Ginny were trying to figure out what was so fascinating outside the train. Looking at the reflection in the window I finally realized who our other companion is.

"Draco, what are you doing here?"All except for Draco lookup at me with an incredulous look.

"Hermione, what are you…"

"Hello, Hermione." Draco said, finally acknowledge the others presences "How have you been since I have last seen you?"

"Good, you?"

"Well. Now if you would excuse me I believe I have a question for Headmistress McGonagall." He stood up and made his way out the door to the hallway, gently closing the door behind him.

All of us sat there for a few minutes pondering what just happened.

"Does anyone know exactly what just happened here?" Ginny asked.

"I have no I idea. All I know is Draco went from a pompous, selfish git; to some who is completely emotionless and talks as if he said a single thing incorrectly it would be improper." Ron commented "He sounded even more uptight then Hermione was first year."

"Hey! I take offense at that."

"Sorry" Ron said gaining a sheepish expression

"Let's just forget about it and move on"

Harry and Ginny started snogging each other again, while Ron started drawing on a scrap sheet of paper.

"Ron I'm gonna get some sleep, please make sure those two don't go too far."

"I'll make sure, just get some rest Hermione." Laying down on the beach, I slowly began to feel unconsciousness close in around me. Exfoliating anything troublesome thoughts from my mind, I finally gave in and slipped into a cumbersome, dreamless sleep.
