Chapter one: At King's Cross
Disclaimer: i do not own anything except plot! 'sniff'
Hermione ran, looking directly at the wall in between platform 9 and 10 more precisely platform 9 ¾. She closed her eyes and opened them when she felt she went through what was the entrance to reach the platform to the Hogwarts express. She was thrilled to be back and to go back to Hogwarts School of witchcraft and wizardry but also sad that it was her last year there. And even better was that she had been given the role of Head girl!
Hermione smiled at the scarlet train in front of her. Since she was head girl she was asked to come an hour and a half early to help new students to find compartments and more importantly meet head boy. 'I know Ron isn't head boy so that leaves Ernie Macmillan, Anthony Goldstein and … MALFOY!!' she thought bitterly. It was obvious who would be head boy since Draco had a father who was persuading and more over he was always top in class next to Hermione.
And sure enough she heard a 'pop' and a boy about her age with gorgeous silver-blond hair and grey eyes with pointed features apparited but Draco made a mistake or perhaps it was a coincidence that Draco apparited right on the place where Hermione stood and this caused him to fall right on top of her. She gave a yelp of surprise as the fell on the ground with Draco on top of her and adding to this was Draco's and Hermione's trunks. Hermione's trunk was under them and Draco's was on him both lying horizontally. They stared at each other trying to comprehend what happened each matching the others surprised faces. Suddenly realizing what position they were in they struggled to get up.
"ooomfff" said Draco
Trying to get up but to no avail his trunk seemed to have a mind of its own and didn't budge. He regretted bringing his wizard chess pieces, which was made of emeralds and silver. He could not use the ground to push himself up as they were sand witched between their trunks. Hermione did not seem to know what to do.
"Um..Granger a bit of help here … ooommff" said Draco half shouting at Hermione.
"Err …. And how exactly do I h-help?" asked a flushed Hermione.
"Try pushing me, Granger" said Draco, grabbing her hands and placing them on his shoulders.
"Ok, I will try"said Hermione closing her eyes she pushed as hard as she could and immediately Draco fell off of her.
"Stupid trunk" he yelled kicking the trunk and ending up hurting himself.
"Ouch" he shouted rubbing his toe with his other leg causing him to lose balance and to fall over.
Hermione giggled "Look how much havoc u caused in 3 minutes" she gasped through her fits of laughter.
"Shut up, Granger" he hissed. Hermione looked back and atlast noticed Dumbledore, who was smiling at Hermione. She turned and returned the gesture.
"Ah Miss Granger, Mr. Malfoy" He said nodding to each of them and x-raying them through his half moon spectacles.
"Good morning professor" said Hermione. While Draco acted like he couldn't care less.
"Ok, first of I think you two will make great heads. As you probably know you have to be role models to the younger students…" draco kind of switched off and the rest sounded a lot like "blah blah blah …" and his gaze swept through the station and landed on the girl beside him who was intently listening to all the rubbish the headmaster was saying. He rolled his eyes 'Same old book-worm Granger' he thought always listening to the headmaster, he shook his head. He noticed that how her hair cascaded down her back and ended in small ringlets just beneath her shoulder. It was not the bush of brown curls anymore that it was before. She wearing a brown t-shirt which nicely matched her eyes and hair and a denim skirt and surprisingly it ended above her knees. Draco looked away when she looked towards him and instead looked at the headmaster who was also looking at him. Clearly bewildered draco figured he was expected to say something.'Oh shit now what the hell do I say' he thought.
"Oh..um..yes?" he tried, ignoring Hermione's lousy attempt to stifle her laughter.
"Ah, since you weren't listening would you like me to repeat my self?" said Dumbledore kindly.
"No sir, I think Granger here will tell me everything I have to know since she probably memorized every thing you said" he said smirking at Hermione who returned it with a glare.
"Okay the students should be starting to arrive now, the prefects are as follows Ronald Weasely and Ginny Weasely from Gryffindor, Draco snorted and Hermione once again glared at him, Pansy Parkinson and Harold Binn for Slytherin, Ernie Macmillan and Cherry Jackson for Hufflepuff and Anthony Goldstein and Melanie Macmillan for Ravenclaw" Said Dumbledore.
Draco and Hermione blinked and Dumbledore was gone.

"Yeah…so he said that our duties wer-" began Hermione
"Honestly Granger do you think I care" Interrupted Draco.
He turned and went to find a compartment to drop his trunk. Hermione huffed and went to find herself a compartment.
