Hey boy, don't put your head down, smile big

Smile for me, alright, smile for me

Even if people cry and say that it hurts

Oh, everything's gonna turn out fine, it's okay

It's not right if you argue that you're hurt~

Hermione's P.o.V.

My friends and I sitting in our common room by the fire. It's already past curfew but my friends and I decided to stay. Harry and Ron are playing Wizards' Chess, while their girlfriends, Ginny Weasley and Lavender Brown are watching them, and I am doing nothing, absolutely nothing. Many minutes passed and I'm getting bored.

"Harry, could I borrow your Invisibility Cloak and the Marauders' Map, please?" I asked

"Sure, Mione. But, where are you going?"

"I'm going to patrol."

He nodded and gave me the cloak and the map. "Thanks, Harry."

"Be careful, Mione."

I pushed open the portrait door and stepped. I put the Invisibility Cloak on and checked the map to watch out for Filch and Mrs. Norris and Professor Snape.


Minutes passed and I've checked all of the corridors. I was on my way back to the Gryffindor Tower when I heard some sniffing coming from an empty classroom. I pushed open the door and peeked in. I saw a figure sitting on the teacher's desk. I tried to walk quietly inside the classroom but failed when I accidentally bumped to a chair.

"Who's there?"

Wait a minute, that voice sounds familiar I thought. I looked up and saw Draco Malfoy standing, wand at the ready.

"Who's there? Show yourself!"

I hesitated at first but then I decided to remove the cloak. His eyes widen and he lowered his wand, slowly.

"Granger? What are you doing here?"

"I could ask you the same thing."

"I- I was just- it's none of your bloody business!" he snapped out

"Yes, it is. I am Head Girl- "

"I am Head Boy!"

"I know that! I just want to why you're crying? Is something wrong?"

"I am not crying!" he yelled

But I still remained calm, "Yes, you were."

"Am not!"

"You were."

"Am not!"

"You were."

"Am not!"

"You were."

"I SAID I WAS NOT CRYING!"

That's it.

"HERE I AM TRYING TO BE NICE TO YOU. I'M ASKING YOU WHAT'S WRONG AND YOU WOULDN'T TELL ME. FINE! IF YOU DON'T WANT TO THEN I'LL JUST LEAVE!" I turned to leave but I was pulled back into a tight hug.

"Malfoy…can't…breathe…" He let me go and I went to sit beside him.

"So, can you tell me what's wrong?"

He looked hesitant at first, "I just miss my mother. She's the only one who supports me but now she's…."

"It's okay, Malfoy. Everything's gonna turn out fine. You still have some of your friends."

"Can I ask you something?"

"Sure."

"Would you like to be my- f- f- fr- "

"Friend?" He nodded and he blushed?

"Sounds great, Draco."

"Thanks…Hermione."

"Draco?"

"Hmm?"

"Smile for me." He looked at me and flashed a smile, a genuine smile at me.

I giggled and hugged him. He looked shock at first but then returned the hug. "Be happy, Draco."

"I am happy…Now."
