Harry and Ron are in their flying car getting to school.
Meanwhile on the Hogwarts Express...
Draco walks in, and Hermione expects him to say something irritable. But he doesn't. Draco just looks at her kind of longingly. Hermione stares back in confusion. But then she realizes how... adorable Draco really is. She wonders why Draco is so rude and disgusting around his friends and family. Draco sits down next to her and starts talking about Quidditch. Hermione isn't really into the conversation, but she listens. Harry and Ron are gone. So who cares?
Draco drapes his arm around her and tells her how pretty she is. Hermione blushes.
Draco leans in... and almost for a second Hermione wishes it would happen.
The door bursts open.
"Malfoy? Whattaya doin' with that Mudblood?" Crabbe exclaimed.
Draco pushes Hermione. "Mudblood." He stands up to leave. But before he is completely out the sliding door of the car, he turns around and looks at her longingly and smiles."Malfoy! Come On!" Goyle screams.
Hermione goes back to staring out the window.
