Disclaimer: I own nothing of Harry Potter, but share his last name. 

Author Note…just so everyone knows I have changed a lot of the story that JK has given us….instead Voldemort was defeated in his fifth year and everyone is alive.

Chapter 1

Harry, Ron and Hermione spent the greater part of the summer at the burrow, but now they are heading back to Hogwarts for their 7th and final yea. They were excited to say the least. After this year they would leave Hogwarts and never see Snape or Malfoy again. This thought brought them much joy. They left the burrow and headed for Kings Cross station.

"This year is going to be the best." Hermione stated after they had crossed over to platform 9 ¾.

"Speak for yourself." Ron said and they all got on the train, but Ron went off in search for a seat.

"We got here too late; all the compartments are going to be full." Harry said.

""Well, we'll find a place to sit." Hermione reassured him as they waited for Ron to return.

"Well I've looked all over." Said Ron. "There's a spot in Neville and Ginny's compartment. A spot in Lavender and Pavarti's compartment, and unfortunately the only other spot I could find was the compartment with Malfoy and his Slytherin "friends"." Ron reported making a sick face when talking about Malfoy.

"I call Ginny's" Harry said and ran towards the direction Ron had pointed in.

Ron put his hand on Hermione's shoulder and looked her in the eyes.

"I'll be the bigger man here Hermione."

"Thanks Ron." She said with a smile.

"Yeah…Well good luck with the Slytherins" he said, smiled and ran off to Lavender's compartment.

"'Bigger man.' Yeah he showed that." She said to herself. "Great now I get to spend hours with Malfoy" and she slowly started toward the Slytherin compartment.

Malfoy was sitting in his compartment with Pansy, Crabbe, Goyle, and Jeffery Carpenter, a relatively new addition to their group of "friends" since he stayed with the Malfoy's during the summer, when Hermione opened the door to the compartment.

"What are you doing here mudblood?" Pansy asked snottily reading her copy of the Daily Prophet.

"Yeah Granger. What happened? Did your boyfriends kick you out?" Malfoy said.

"No Malfoy, but speaking of which how's your boyfriends doing?" she asked head cocked to one side.

"Who's she talking about Draco? Someone I should know about?" Pansy asked.

"No! You stupid…" he said glaring at Hermione who was snickering in the doorway. "What do you want Granger?"

"Just ignore me. Unfortunately due to a lack of seats I am forced to sit with you." Hermione said sitting as far away from them as possible.

"Whatever Granger. Just admit it, you want me." Draco said and his friends laughed.

"I'd rather stand in a room of screaming Mandrakes or impale myself on a Basilisk tooth." She retaliated and his smile faded.

"So Carpenter did you see that hot blonde I was with last night?" Malfoy said with a wink.

"Oh yeah, hey man how was she?" Carpenter asked.

"Perfect…if you know what I mean." Malfoy said holding his hands up to his chest and playing with his pretend boobs.

"Wow….and what about-"

"Excuse me." Said Hermione and she left the compartment not looking at any of them.

"That was brilliant." Pansy said, "How'd you come up with that so fast?"

" I didn't, they really were out to here." He said and again made his hand gestures. " Oh and that other thing….also perfect." He said to Carpenter giving him a thumbs up.

"So you going to see her again?"

"No. Why would I?"

"You're such a jerk Draco." Pansy said.

"I know" Malfoy said with a smile.

"That Granger is pretty hot." Carpenter said.

"Hermione Granger?" Pansy questioned.

"Yeah she is hot, but she's an annoying mudblood" Malfoy said.

Hermione walked along the corridors of the train looking for a place to squeeze in, with no luck. Eventually she found a compartment with Luna Lovegood and some other girls and joined them.

"Hello Hermione. I was wondering when I was going to see you." Luna said.

"Yeah. I can honestly say that I'm glad to see you guys. I just came from Malfoy's compartment." Hermione said looking from Luna to the other girls.

"You mean you actually saw and talked to Draco Malfoy?" said one of the other girls.

"Yeah." Hermione said slowly. "It's not like he's a superstar or anything."

"No….he's a super hot, mega sexy, love god." The girl said and the other girls nodded their heads.

"You're not a fan are you?" Hermione asked sarcastically.

"Uh, yeah everyone is. Especially in my year. I'm only one year younger than him. He's so perfect." She squealed excitedly.

"Yeah he's a saint."

"Well he's perfect for me." She said brushing her red hair out of her face.

"Oh please! He's a jerk and a horn dog. He'd screw anything on two legs as long as it had pretty eyes and two boobs!" Hermione said.

"Can you hook me up with him?" The red head asked.

"You have to be nuts. Besides I don't even know you that well not to mention that he probably wouldn't even listen to me."

"My name is Valerie. I'm a sixth year and from now on your best friend. You can at least try to talk to him right?" she asked with a puppy-dog pout.

" I guess I can try but I cant promise anything." Hermione said.

"Thanks!!" she squealed.

"We're almost to Hogwarts" said Luna, completely changing the subject, "I hope they have pudding."

Everyone just stared at her as she stared out the window into the darkness.

"So Malfoy what's the grand total for the summer?" asked Crabbe.

"Oh, I'd say about 20 girls, but only about half of them went all the way." He said with a wink.

"I don't believe you." Said Carpenter, shaking his head, with a smile.

"I can get any girl I want." Said Malfoy. "Just ask Pansy"

"Hey!" she squealed and chucked her Daily Prophet at him.

"Oh I have no doubt that you can get any girl. No, I have doubts, however, on whether you can keep a girl for longer than a week." Said Carpenter.

"I can do anything with any girl." Malfoy said confidently.

"Ok fine. Care to make a bet?"

"Name the stakes."

"You have to get a girl, that I choose, to go out with you and keep her until…hmmm…lets say the end of the year dance." Said Carpenter

"Ok, how much you talking here?"

"Oh lets say 200 galleons. But you also must get her to go out with you before the Christmas dance."

"Deal. Who's the lucky girl?" Draco asked with a smile smile.

"hmmm…lets see. Well I cant pick Pansy because she's already had a taste of the "great Draco Malfoy." No hmmm….." Carpenter said then broke into a mile long grin. "Lets go with the famous yet attractive Hermione Granger."

A/N: Yeah I know like that wasn't predictable. . Well if you didn't like that chapter hopefully you will like later ones. Well I'll update as soon as possible.
