This is my first story I want to really give this a try but I just don't know. So I'm going to write a one shot that can become a multi-chapter story. So please review and tell me if you would be interested in me finishing the rest. Also If you have idea's or advise then that is welcome. Thank you for your time, please review and let me know what you think. One more thing, I'm pretending that the war was at the end of sixth year and Voldy is dead.

Disclaimer: I own nothing but the plot!

Hermione was sitting on her bed looking at pictures of the past six years at Hogwarts. She could hardly believe that after this summer she would be returning for her last year. So much happened last year, they searched for the remaining horcruxes and defeated Voldemort. It was a wonderful and sad day for all. They had lost so many friends including Fred, poor George will never be the same. Hermione went directly after the war to find her family and restore their memory. She told them about the war and they were so proud of her. She could hear he mum downstairs walking around the kitchen. She hoped she was baking cookies. Her dad was in his study tending to the finances. "Hermione there is an Owl down here for you." "Coming mum." She ran down the stairs. She really hoped it was from Harry and Ron, she had been home for a month and was ready to go to the burrow. "Hello Hidwig, I'm very happy to see you." The owl pecked at her hair until she gave him a treat. "Yes! Mum I'll be in my room I finally got a letter from the boys." "Okay honey." She ran into her room and quickly tore into the letter.

Dear Hermione,

We are sorry we didn't write sooner. You knew I wouldn't write. That was Ron. We charmed the note so you could tell who was speaking. That was Ginny's idea, she says hello. We wanted to know if you could come stay the rest of the summer at the burrow. Boy are you in for a surprise. What he means to say is we do have another visitor and he is in our year, we thought he was evil but Mione he was forced. You'll see when you get here. We hope you can come, Mione we miss you.

'That was very cryptic' Hermione thought. "Mum,Dad I'm going to visit the Weasly's for the rest of the holiday, I hope that is okay." Her parents looked at each other and smiled. "Of course honey" her mom said. "We were actually going to ask if you didn't mind going, Seeing as we can't remember our trip to Australia, we thought we would go back for a little while."

Hermione was thrilled for her parent's. " Oh daddy, I think that is a wonderful idea, I'm going to pack." She went to her room and started to pack. 'I wonder who this mystery guy is, hmm guess I'll find out soon.' Her parents allowed her to install a floo network a few years ago so she stepped into the fireplace. "The Burrow."

"HERMIONE!" She heard hear name coming from about four different directions. The boys had her in a hug before she could step out of the fireplace. "HARRY, RON, I missed you guys so much, how's your summer, how's George, where's Ginny, whe" Harry laughed.

"Mione, one question at a time please."

"Yeah I can't keep up." Ron agreed. Hermione blushed."Sorry guys, I guess I got a head of myself." Then she remembered the letter. "Who all is here?" Both boys. looked like they wanted to run. "What's going on?" Harry stepped forward "maybe you should sit down." Hermione was getting nervous. She sat down and the table "okay talk." Ron cleared his throat. "Just remember to have an open mind. If I can get over this so can you." Now she was seriously worried. "Just tell me already."

"Remember how the Malfoy's were killed in the war?" Harry asked. "Yes, but I don't see how that has anything to do with this."

"Hermione, they were spy's for the Order, that's why Mrs. Malfoy lied for Harry." Ron looked at Hermione to see if she had caught on yet. Suddenly Hermione remembered something from the letter, 'We thought he was evil but he was forced'. "NO" Hermione was red she was so mad. "That still doesn't explain why he would be here."

"His parents are dead Mione, He didn't want to be alone in the manor and my parents offered to take him in." Ron was still trying to make since of this himself. "He is really sorry for everything he did. He couldn't let anyone know he was part of the Order, it was all an act." Hermione couldn't believe what she was hearing. " I won't believe it, until I have seen it."

"You'll see, He really is different." Harry tried to reason with her. Then she heard the back door open and in walked Draco Malfoy himself. He smiled,"hello Hermione." 'Well, this is going to be an interesting summer.' That's all Hermione could think as Draco walked up to his room. "Go talk to him, you will see he is different." Harry tried his best to get her to see that the summer was not ruined. "No, I believe I shall go sit in the garden for a bit." Hermione walked out to the garden and found a bench to sit on. She sat and looked at the clouds and contemplated just going home, but alas her parent's were in Australia, and she didn't want to be alone. "Argh, why does he have to be here!"

"Well I thought Harry and Ron told you why, and I thought you were the bright one." She turned around to come face to face with Malfoy's famous smirk. "What do you want Malfoy?"

"A chance to prove to you that I'm not the person you think I am."

"Give me one good reason to trust you."

"I'm here aren't I? Do you really think that I would be here if I hadn't changed?"

"Harry and Ron maybe quick to forgive but you won't win me over that easily."

She took in his appearance. He looked good this year, his face was relaxed, and his hair fell into his eyes just a bit. He looked...happy. "All I ask is that you just let me prove that I'm not a...let's see what was you called me, oh yes, 'a foul loathsome evil little cockroach', something along those lines." He was smirking again, funny thing is Hermione was sporting her own smirk. "Yeah, I think that was it." He turned on his heals and was about to go back into the burrow when he stopped and turned to look at her, "Oh and Hermione, please call me Draco." Hermione was stunned he really was trying to make a difference. "Okay, Draco." He smiled and went inside. 'Yep, I was right, this is going to be one interesting summer.'
