Chapter 1
Hermione listened with great interest to professor McGonagall lecturing on about how important the OWLs were.
"Your OWLs will take place in exactly 12 weeks, so I suggest you study as much as you can and STAY AWAKE IN MY CLASS, MR POTTER!" This startled a now-awake Harry.
"Sorry, Professor, won't happen again," mumbled Harry, still groggy from his nap. Professor McGonagall then continued her lesson about how to transform rabbits into slippers.
"Very good, Miss Granger, 5 points for Gryffindor! Not bad, Mr Malfoy, but I notice your slippers still have tails and whiskers. Mr Potter, are you even trying? Your slippers still resemble bunnies with hollowed backs. And they're hopping! Pull this sort of a thing again and I assure you, Gryffindor will lose some points!" exclaimed Professor McGonagall.
"Sorry, Professor. I had trouble sleeping last night, won't happen again," said Harry.
"In the future, please insure you get enough rest Mr Potter." Said Professor sternly.
As soon as class was dismissed, Hermione ran to find Harry.
"What was that all about?" questioned Hermione.
"What was what all about?" asked Harry, confused.
"You falling asleep in McGonagall's class. Why couldn't you sleep last night?" asked Hermione, corncerned.
"Oh, that. I was stressing about OWLs and then I had a dream about Voldemort being headmaster and announcing that I had gotten Troll in my Defence Against The Dark Arts exam. I just couldn't stop thinking about it. How do you stay so calm about the exams Hermione?" babbled Harry.
"If we are being honest here, I'm never calm about OWLs I'm so nervous after barely passing Transfiguration. Sorry, I have to go study in the library!" squeaked Hermione.
"And I have a date." muttered Harry. "With my bed."
Hermione scrambled into the library. She plopped herself down at an empty desk and searched around in her bag for her text books. Library was completely empty, apart from one boy sitting in the corner. Hermione leaned forward from her desk and realised who it was. It was Draco Malfoy. He hadn't noticed Hermione because he was engrossed in a book, so she took a glance at what he was reading. The cover read 'How to snag a witch's heart'. Hermione pulled a disgusted face. He could be doing something more useful! Who could possibly like Malfoy? An Idiot, a bully and a pureblood freak.
"Oh, has ickle Dracy have a crush on someone?" Hermione said, in a mock baby voice.
Malfoy looked up, startled, but quickly recovered, realising who it was. "What are you doing here, Granger?" sneered Malfoy. "Haven't you gotten anything better to do, mudblood?" continued the Slytherin.
"What about your friends Malfoy? Finally realise their stupidity and go find a real friend?" countered Hermione, smirking a smirk that even Malfoys would be jealous of.
Malfoy blushed as he struggled to find a fitting comeback.
"Well, uh, um, it's just because, I um, uh," stuttered Malfoy, then sighed.
"Getting too smart for you am I, Slytherin?" replied Hermione, triumphantly.
"Listen, Granger, I mean Hermione, I've been meaning to tell you something and I've finally worked up the courage to ask you. So.. here I go... Will you go out with me?"
Chapter 2 coming soon...
