7th Year Back
A/N: Hey everyone! This is my Second story!!!! It's a DracoxHermione fic and I couldn't be happier. It will take a long time, about a week or two (depending on school) to update chapters and things. On top of that I'm writing my other story. A Naruto fic by the name of I'll Never Tell. I love Harry Potter and plan on making this one a long one just like my Naruto fanfic. So for your enjoyment here's Behind Enemy Lines chapter 1!!!
Hermione's eyes fluttered open as she heard her mother scream.
"Hermione!!! Get up! Today's your first day back to Hogwarts!"
Hermione shot out of bed and frantically started to get dressed. She sighed happily at past years at Hogwarts. The first time that she had met Harry and Ron, the boat ride that started everything. The day that she was petrified. Not exactly a pleasant memory but certainly one that she would never forget. How she had clung tightly to Harry's back as they rode Buckbeak the Hippogriff to save Sirius Black. How she had gasped for air as Viktor Krum rescued her from the depths of the Black Lake. During the second task of the hectic Triwizard Tournament. The day she learned how to create her patronus in the room of requirement in her 5th year. And the faces of her friends last year as she said goodbye. Now she was going back. To her 7th and last year at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.
She sighed as she yanked on her form fitting jeans and pulled a scarlet and gold Gryffindor sweater over her head.
A ball of orange was lounging on her bed.
She walked over and cradled her cat in her arms.
"Well Crookshanks… time to go back for one last time. I hope I'll make a good head girl," she said to herself as she felt the badge in her pocket suddenly turn heavy.
This final year at Hogwarts was going to be her best yet. She could feel it.
She ran down the stairs with her trunk barreling behind her. Her mother and father met her at the bottom of the stairs beaming.
"What?" she asked.
"You just look so beautiful," her mother cried dabbing at the tears slowly falling from the corners of her eyes.
Hermione rolled her eyes and hurried to the door.
"Come on! I don't want to miss the train!" she cried.
"Alright, we're on our way!" her father called.
She jumped into the back seat of the car, ignoring the struggling sounds of her father straining with her trunk. Her parents entered the car and were about to pull out of the driveway when…
"AAAAHHHH!!!!!"
Hermione's father slammed on the breaks.
"What?" he asked.
"I forgot something… I'll be right back," Hermione announced as she darted from the car and back into the house. She came bolting out with her black robe and wand in hand.
"Sorry," she said.
"Forget anything else?" her father asked.
"No, sure that's everything,"
"Good, now let's go,"
XXXXXXXXX
They approached the station with a sigh. Hermione bolted from the car and ran to haul her trunk onto her trolley. She pushed aside the heavy doors and was greeted with train whistles and frantic muffled voices.
She looked over the heads of the crowd and saw the 9 and 10 platform. She grabbed her cart from her parents and gave them hurried pecks on the cheek.
"Alright sweetheart, have fun and make it a good year! Remember you're coming home for Christmas with us," her mother explained.
"Alright mom I know. I'll see you in December!" she called as she weaved through the bustle of people and made her way to the platform. She looked around before she held her breath and ran through the stone pillar.
She opened her eyes and was met with a sea of black. Hogwarts robes billowed along the platform of 9 ¾. She ran toward the train and hoisted her belongings safely away. She carefully took Crookshanks from her cage and huddled her into her robe.
She entered the train and raced down the narrow halls searching for her two best friends.
She yelped in surprise as she felt a hand latch onto her wrist and jerk her backward.
She stumbled into someone's arms and closed her eyes.
"Hermione?" a voice asked.
She opened her eyes and saw fiery red hair and freckles beaming at her.
"Ron?" she asked
He nodded proudly.
"Oh Ron I missed you so much!!!" she cried pulling him into a bone crushing hug that he gladly returned.
"Where's Harry?" she asked.
He laughed at her.
"He's in a compartment toward the end of this hallway, come on," he explained as he lightly took her hand and led her toward Harry.
She glanced up at him and smiled. Ron's hair was slightly longer than it had been at the end of last year. It was tousled, long, and wavy. He was taller too. By about a few inches. His blue eyes were a light airy color that reminded her of the sky on a calm spring day.
They reached the end of the hallway and the compartment door opened.
"Hermione," Harry said smiling at her.
"Harry! So good to see you!" she screamed giving him the same treatment she had given Ron.
"Oh Bloody Hell, the golden Gryffindor trio is back together for the 7th nauseating year in a row,"
They all turned to see Draco Malfoy leaning against the doorway of the compartment with a smug and arrogant look on his face.
"Shut up Malfoy, don't you have some first year to be terrorizing?" Ron asked.
"Watch it Weasel or I'll give you detention," he snapped.
"You can't do that,"
Ron's words caught in his throat as his eyes rested soundly on Malfoy's head boy badge clinging to his robes.
"Not so tough now are you Weasel?" he sneered.
"Watch it Malfoy," Harry warned.
"I just came to get the head girl," he said staring at Hermione. "McGonagall wants to see us in a compartment down the hall… heads business,"
Hermione nodded and strayed out of the carriage with Malfoy trailing behind her.
"So Granger… excited about living in the same dorm as me?" he asked.
Hermione turned to face him as they reached the compartment.
"Don't make me nauseous Malfoy," she sneered.
"Funny Mudblood," he hissed. He reached past her and clicked open the door.
"Aw Ms. Granger, Mr. Malfoy," McGonagall greeted. "Please have a seat," she added.
Hermione sat down and Malfoy reluctantly sat next to her.
"As you both know, the head boy and girl are role models for peers and younger students of Hogwarts. You are also aware that the head boy and girl share a dormitory. You each have your own rooms of course but you will have to share a bathroom. Um, let's see. The Headmaster will present you both before the school once we arrive," she explained. "Any questions?" she asked and was met by silence.
"Very well, you may return to your compartments," she concluded.
Draco and Hermione both rose from their seats and soundly left.
Malfoy shoved past Hermione and stormed off toward his carriage.
"Arrogant mudblood," he scoffed as he entered his compartment.
Hermione furrowed her eyebrows and glared angrily at the door which he had just entered.
"Pompus Slytherin ass," she sneered as she stormed off towards her own compartment.
She knocked on the door and slowly made her way into the carriage.
"So, how did it go?" Ron asked.
"Yeah, was Malfoy a right foul git?"
She glanced over Ron's shoulder and saw Ginny wide-eyed and smiling.
They both squealed in unison and hugged each other.
"You look gorgeous!!!" Hermione cried.
Ginny's hair flowed angelically down past her shoulders. She had the most stunning emerald eyes (besides Harry's) that she had ever seen.
"Well look who's talking? You're a knock out!" Ginny exclaimed.
Hermione's chestnut curls tumbled down onto her shoulder. Her Gryffindor sweater clung tightly to her slim, mature body. Her chocolate brown eyes bore warmth and comfort. And her perfect smile was contagious.
Ron and Harry sat down as they watched Ginny and Hermione go on and on about who was prettier.
They finally sat down and started talking about something else.
"So, how about Malfoy? He's gotten cute over the summer. He might actually live up to the gossip as Slytherin Sex God," Ginny teased batting her eyes.
"Bloody Hell I think I'm going to vomit," Ron said.
"You have to admit, he's not exactly scrawny anymore," Ginny pointed.
"Can we just get off the subject please," Harry begged.
"So Hermione, what do you think It's going to be like, you know living with Malfoy?" Ginny whispered excitedly knowing full well that Ron and Harry could hear.
Hermione sat back and thought about the words Ginny had just spoken. How would it be living in the same dorm as Draco Malfoy? To be in every class with him? She could only think of one phrase.
"I think Ginny," she said. "I think that it will be a lot like going behind enemy lines,"
