Chapter 1: He's NOT?

"OH NO! SINCE WHEN HAVE I EVER OVERSLEPT FOR THE PAST 17 YEARS? UGH!" Hermione Granger threw her legs over the side of her four poster bed, noting that her alarm clock didn't ring.

"HERMIONE, WAKE UP!" Her mother screamed. 'A little late, no?" Hermione thought to herself.

"I'M UP MOTHER!" Hermione strolled to the bathroom, looking at herself with out a care in the world. So what her hair was bushy? So what she wasn't like any ordinary girl. Hermione Granger could care less.

Still in her pajamas, Hermione ran down the stairs quite fast and carefree. She sat down at the kitchen table, while her mom put a plate of eggs in front of her, along with a cup of hot tea.

"Thanks, mum."

"Oh, Hermione dear, another Hogwarts letter came this morning. Doesn't look like any ordinary one. And to think that it came the day you are leaving for Hogwarts. WHAT NERVE!"

"It's okay, mum. Let me see what it is." Hermione tore open the envelope, seeing a gold, shiny badge with the words "Head Girl" engraved in it. Hermione's eyes sparkled at the sight of it.

"YES! OH WOW! YAY!" She screamed with excitement. Her mother stared at her, wondering what the commotion was about.

"What happ—"

"I'M HEAD GIRL! THE DAY HAS FINALLY COME! OH NO, I HAVE TO LOOK GOOD FOR TODAY! I MUST! I MUST! I MUST!" Hermione screamed, and ran out of the room, leaving a surprised mother behind. She ran past her father on the stairs and shut her bedroom door and look into her mirror.

"Ugh, I'm hideous!" She scowled, attempting to put a hand through her knotty, bushy hair. She picked up a magazine Ginny had sent her over the summer to see if she could find any spells to treat hair. Luckily she did.

"Monocutera!" Hermione spoke clearly. In a matter of seconds her hair went from bushy and frizzy to curly and sleek. It was stunning.

Hermione threw on tight jeans which Ginny had also given her for her birthday and a red tank top. 'Good!' She thought running down the stairs.

Her luggage was already downstairs and she grabbed it and hugged her parents goodbye as she apparated to the Kings Cross station 9 ¾. There she found Ron and Harry who's backs were towards her. She wrapped her arms around Ron's neck and whispered "I finally found you, and have been dying to let you know that Luke…. I am your father!"

"HERMIONE, JUST BECAUSE I DIDN'T KNOW WHAT MUGGLE MOVIE YOU WERE TALKING ABOUT LAST TIME, DOESN'T MEAN I DON'T KNOW WHICH THIS ONE IS!" He scowled, looking flushed. Harry smiled and hugged her, apologizing about Ron.

"He didn't have a great summer. It was all because—"

"Don't ask me if it's okay to tell her! GO AHEAD!" Ron sighed quite loudly.

"Okay, mate. Yeah, so the problem was ever since his brother got married, he has been raving about how having a girlfriend is great and Ron was feeling down about not having one." After Harry explained, Ron's ears turned a bright red, almost like his hair. "Oh and I see you've gotten the "Ol' Mighty Head Girl Badge". CONGRATS!"

"Thanks," Hermione said trying not to look TOO PROUD. "Wait, aside from me feeling bad about Ron, Harry I've been worried about you. I thought you weren't coming to school this year." Hermione asked, feeling a little worried about asking. Harry sighed.

"Yeah, well it's going to be hard with out Dumbledore, but I will manage. I was thinking—" Harry's face turned pale, he hated discussing these matters. "Voldermort will know where I am if I go. That was I will be able to battle him on grounds."

"Good idea, Harry. I will back you up one hundred percent." Hermione said with a small smile. She placed a hand on Harry's cheek for reassurance.

As they got into an empty compartment, they settled down. Harry and Ron spoke about quiditch and Hermione started reading one out of ten books that she brought.

"I just thought of something!" Ron said, after an awkward silence. Harry looked shocked.

"WHAT A MIRACLE! What is it?"

"Draco Malfoy isn't going to be here. HE RAN AWAY WITH THE OTHER DEATH EATERS!" Ron said. Hermione frowned. She was happy he wouldn't be there, but adding to the death eater population wasn't a good excuse why.

"True… that's one less worry!" Harry said with an expressionless face. Hermione just nodded.

"MUDBLOOD!" Draco said with a sarcastic happy tone, "Surprised to see me?" He asked, a smirk across his pale face. Hermione sat there, lost for words.

"Mal—Mal—Malfoy?" She studdered, "But aren't you a—a—a—DEATHEATER?" She blurted. Malfoy snorted.

"Was never quite proven yet, now was it?"

"YES IT WAS!" Harry stood up, his face beat red. "ONE OF YOUR KIND KILLED THE ALL TIME GREATEST WIZARD! AFTER ALL HE'S DONE! AFTER HE LET YOU INTO THIS DAMN SCHOOL!" Draco's gaze turned to face Harry, the smirk still written on his face.

"Yes, but that has nothing to do with me being a death eater!"

"I WAS THERE WHEN YOU ATTEPTED TO KILL HIM! I WAS EFFIN THERE!" Harry screamed, not caring who heard.

"Really? Well, if your so smart Potter, than how do you know the Dark Lord wasn't exactly TESTING to see if I am worthy enough to be a death eater? Was the mark on my arm ever exposed? Well?" He asked. Harry went silent. Deadly silent.

"I can't believe they let you back into this school, knowing the connection you have to that filth!" Hermione said, glaring. Draco rolled up both sleeves of his robe, and exposed two bare arms.

"What connection?" He asked innocently, walking away, the smirk still plastered where it originally was the entire time.

"So he's—he's—not a—WOW!" Hermione cried out. She was still surprised to not heard a word from Ron. She faced him to see that his face was pale and he was still in the phase of shock. Hermione kissed his cheek and saw him awake from is surprised daze.

"I'm going to get changed into my robes." Hermione said, grabbing her stuff and leaving the compartment. She had to go to the heads compartment after anyway, so she decided to meet her friends later.

When she entered the compartment, she was surprised to see a familiar face. She couldn't believe this.

"So Granger, we meet again!"

So this is chapter one. I love this so far. Hmm… how could such a git be so…. Well…. Malfoyish? Isn't that hard since he is MALFOY. D
