Hermione Granger ran through the halls of Hogwarts, trying to reach her "Different Roots" class before the bell rang. She knew that showing up late to her first class of the year wouldn't be very impressive, even more since she was the new head girl.
"Almost there." She thought to herself as she turned a corner, and headed down a new corridor. Surprisingly, she didn't want to take this class, but ever since the war had ended, Hogwarts had added at least 10 other required classes. They said it was to "prevent future wars and create a stronger unity of the four houses." Hermione would much rather be in arithmancy.
Finally she reached the door, she smoothed down her skirt and tried to de-poof her hair a bit before finally turning the knob and stepping into the room. The door let out a loud creak, and at least 25 heads turned to see who had entered. Hermione walked to the only available seat in the room, with her head down, a light blush creeping onto her face. When she sat down, she looked up just in time to see the teacher finish writing "Different roots" on the board. She turned" Good Morning Class!" she said, her voice cheerful. She was in her mid forties, and her hair was a fiery red color. Her blue eyes sparkled and her smile was prominent. "My name is Ms. Reeves and this is Different Roots class." She walked around her desk, so she was standing in front of the students.
"In this class you will be paired up with a partner. For two weeks you will follow your partner around, and experience his or her life. One week will be here at Hogwarts, and one week will be at his or her home. Then for another two weeks your partner will experience your life. Now, that part of the class won't start until next week, so for now you will be sitting and talking with your partner, so you can write a before essay. The 'before' essay, is pretty much what it sounds like. It's an essay of what you thought about you partner before the project began. Then after the four weeks you will have one week to write an 'after' essay. Hopefully by the end of this week you will be more considerate and kind to one another after learning peoples back stories" She walked around to the back of the desk and picked up a piece of parchment. "Please be aware that there will be no changes made, this is who your partner will be, no exceptions." She said, suddenly more serious. "Now, after I announce your group, please pair up with your partner and introduce yourself."
And with that she started to read the list. Hermione listened carefully to it, but it seemed as if everyone's name was being called except her own. "..Lavender and Gregory, Pansy and Neville, Seamus and Blaise..." until finally,
"Draco and Hermione"
Hermione sat there frozen; she raised her hand but didn't wait to be called on before she started talking.
"But professor can we pl-"
"I'm sorry Ms. Granger" she said with a small smile on her face. "No changes." She said simply.
Hermione Sighed and picked up her bag, before standing and surveying the room for the blonde demon. She spotted him sitting in the far corner, and she headed in that direction. Even from across the room, she could see his smirk.
When she finally reached him, she sat in the empty desk in front of his. She turned to face him, her displeasure obvious.
"Hello Mudblood!" He said with mock cheerfulness, while leaning against the wall, his hands behind his head.
"Morning Ferret" She Replied.
This was going to be a very long four weeks.
