TOP SECRET

Hermione was bewildered when she received the letter, telling her she had made head girl….no that's not why she was bewildered. Draco Malfoy was head boy!!! What was she going to do; she knew there was no way she would be able to make it through this year. She had been through so much this past year, and she knew if anyone found out, it would make them see her in a different light. Thinking to herself she decided she would do whatever she had to do to keep it a secret.

Pacing back and forth she thought of everything that happened. She shuddered at the memories. Tears started to form in her eyes, and eventually she was silently crying staring in the mirror. Her reflection was beautiful in reality, but all she saw was an ugly torn apart worthless girl. She shook her head. "Pull it together "she whispered. "School starts tomorrow, and I have to act normal." Climbing into her bed she tossed and turned all night.

THE NEXT DAY

Hermione walked briskly to platform 9 ¾ she was so anxious about seeing her 2 best friends.

"Mione…..Wait up!!!!" she heard someone yelling from behind her. It was harry, it was so good to see him, she was pulled into a big bear hug. She smiled up at him. It seemed like years since she had seen a friendly face.

"It's so good to see you Harry!!!! I've missed you so much."

"I know I've missed you to, what have you been up to this summer??"

Memories flooded into her mind, and she winced as she saw everything that happened play back into her mind. "Oh nothing much, waited for the school year to start." She smiled; she knew he would believe that.

"Hahaha You're the only person I know that actually waits for school. Come on we have to go find Ron. I know he is around here somewhere." He took off walking towards the Hogwarts Express. They didn't have to look long; Ron was standing by the train talking to his girlfriend lavender brown.

"Ron, Ron" harry yelled over the voices of all the other students. Ron looked up and smiled. He whispered something in lavender's ear, and ran over to them. He smiled and Harry, and gave Hermione a big hug. No one saw how she winced.

"Hermione what did you do all summer?" Ron asked, she was the only one that noticed his eyes sparkling evilly.

"Ummm I gotta go to the heads compartment…see you guys later" she whispered before running off.

Once she was safely in the heads compartment she put her stuff down, and sat dully in the corner. She couldn't believe he stared at her like that, after all he had put her through. Tears were once again silently falling down her eyes. She didn't even notice the door sliding open.

Draco was heading to the heads compartment. His summer was the usual bore. Sitting around the manor. He slid the compartment door open and noticed Hermione sitting there. He stared at her, her long chocolate brown hair falling in soft curls down her back. She was wearing blue jeans, and a tee shirt, but she still looked beautiful, that's when he noticed she was crying. Oh shit, what do I do? He thought. I know I'll just act natural.

He cleared his throat to get her attention. Hermione jumped up. "Oh shit, um hi Malfoy."

"Granger don't you think it is a little sad, to be sitting alone on the ride to school?" he asked casually.

"I think it's sad that we're not even at school yet and you're trying to pick a fight with me. You always target people when they are at their lowest state of mind Malfoy." She stammered, she was fully crying now. She knew her life was sad and she didn't need him to remind her of that.

"I'm not picking a fight I was merely stating the obvious Mudblood, now before you get yourself into something you can't handle I suggest you stop trying to act like a hard ass." He sneered down at her. But he couldn't help but think that maybe he should just leave her alone.

"YOU KNOW WHAT MALFOY, JUST LEAVE ME ALONE, YOU KNOW NOTHING ABOUT ME OR WHAT I HAVE GONE THROUGH. SO WHO ARE YOU TO TELL ME HOW STRONG I AM." She screamed in between sobs. She picked up her belongings and ran out of the compartment crying.

Wow she is very touchy. Draco thought, I didn't mean to make her that upset. Maybe I should go find her and apologize. He quickly changed into his school robes, and left the compartment, he was determined to find her and tell her he was sorry. He looked all over the train and couldn't find her. Oh well Ill just talk to her some other time.

A couple hours later they arrived at Hogwarts. All the students pushed to get off the train. Hermione got off last, not wanting to see Draco or Ron. She climbed onto an empty carriage and anticipated the 1st feast of the year.

The sorting ceremony went by pretty fast, and then Dumbledore stood up to do his usual speech. "I'm glad to announce this is going to be another great year. After much debate on who should have been the two heads this year, we came to the conclusion that Miss Hermione Granger, and Draco Malfoy were the 2 best fit for the job. So congratulations you two." He continued his speech and then with a wave of his wand the feast began.

Hermione was sitting alone at the end of the table hoping Ron and Harry wouldn't try to sit with her, but as she was just starting to relax she heard a voice behind her.

"Hermione I know you aren't going to sit down here and eat all alone, me and Ron saved you a place up here." Harry beamed down at her. Hermione almost jumped out of her chair.

"OH Harry you scared me. Haha No I wasn't going to eat down here I just couldn't find you. I'll be done there in just a minute ok??" she said hastily.

"Ok Mione, we'll be waiting for ya." He then walked back over to his place beside Ron.

Reluctantly Hermione got up and walked over and took the empty seat beside Ron. He eyed her up and down and gave her a little wink. She shuddered in her seat. She sat and picked at her food, not even listening to the conversation between the two of them.

"Miss Granger, I need you to come with me, so I can show you and Mr. Malfoy your private quarters." It was Professor McGonagall. Thank god she had come to her rescue. Hermione jumped up and followed her favorite teacher out of the great hall.

"Now your password is Mandrake, only you two should know this, so don't go about telling all your friends. No visitors after 11 p.m. " they had come to stop in front of a portrait of a lion and a snake. "I'll leave you both to get settled. Goodnight."

"Mandrake" Hermione and Draco said together.

The common room was beautiful, the wallpaper was red, and the furniture was green. There was a fireplace and a bookshelf full of books. She looked up and saw steps leading to two doors. Those must be the bedrooms. She went into hers and saw it was all red and gold. She had a big fore poster bed, and a walk in closet, she noticed a door and opened it. The bathroom was on the other side, she saw a bathtub big enough to be a pool, and a shower on the other side. Of course there was a toilet and sink. She walked back down the stairs and sat in front of the fire. She grabbed a book of the shelf and started to read.

"Hey Granger, I've been meaning to talk to you" she heard the familiar drawling voice.

"Yes Malfoy what can I do for you?"

"I'm sorry about what happened on the train, I didn't realize you would take it so seriously.

"Like I really believe a word your saying Malfoy just leave me alone I don't care." She sounded so cold but he deserved it. Right??

"You don't have to believe me just know that we are roommates so we need to try and get along, now I'm willing to do this so are you?" he was desperate now

"No." was all she said before walking into her room and shutting the door in his face.

Damn its gonna be a long year he though.
