Disclaimer- I do not own Harry Potter or any of the characters JK Rowling does and sadly I am not her.

A/N: This is my very first fanfic so be nice and cruel at the same time please. So now on to the story.

Chapter 1: Not So Pleasant Surprises

It was finally seventh year and I was very happy about being head girl until I walked into the heads compartment. That's when I saw Draco Malfoy and trust me that was a real downer on my day.

"What are you doing here Malfoy?" I all but screamed at him.

"Wow Granger crabby much? But I'm here because I'm head boy so why are you here Mudblood?" Malfoy asked nicely which is very surprising.

"Well Malfoy if you haven't noticed, I'm head girl and I am NOT crabby so if you say that one more time I will- Hello Professor McGonagall."

"Yes well I just came by to remind you that head boy and girl are supposed to set a good example for the other students. Do you understand me Mr. Malfoy?" said McGonagall.

"Yes Professor I understand."

"Very well then. Now Miss. Granger please remind the prefects to set a good example for the other students. Oh, I almost forgot, the prefect meeting starts in one minute."

"Right Professor, I almost forgot, and I will remind the prefects it was part of my speech. Bye Professor."

"And finally, Professor McGonagall told me to remind you all to set a good example for the other students. Um… is there anything you would like to add Malfoy?" I said to the prefects and Malfoy.

"No Granger, as always you covered everything." Malfoy said sourly.

"Ok then, does anyone have any questions?" I asked the prefects.

"I do. For this Halloween ball are we dressing up in costumes or formal wear?" asked Ginny. Which if you ask me it's surprising that she even became a prefect with all the trouble she gets into with Ron and Harry. But then again Ron was a prefect too and I'm head girl so I guess it's not that surprising.

"Well Ginny I don't know yet. That is something that I'm going to have to go over with Malfoy. But I'm betting that it will be costumes since it is Halloween. Any more questions? No? Ok then this meeting is over."

After the meeting I went back to the heads compartment and to my disappointment Malfoy went back to the compartment also. That is when I heard him say something I thought a Malfoy would ever say. "Hermione I know that you think I'm cold hearted like my father but I'm not. So can you give me a chance and maybe we could be friends." He said… sadly?

"Malfoy I don't know what you are playing at but if this is some task that Voldemort sent you on then I'm going to hex you into next week." I threatened him.

Ok so maybe I should give you some background on me and Malfoy. We grew up together. I lived a couple roads away from him and we were best friends from ages 5-10. Now I know what you're thinking. 'Hermione and Draco friends? Didn't think that would happen in a million years.' Well guess what? It did. And trust me, it was fun while it lasted.

You see we were friends that long because I didn't know he was evil. I never knew his dad or his mom, or actually anything about his life. Then I say him on the train. That is where everything went bad.

When I saw him for the first time on the train I was like 'Yay someone I actually know!' but nope. He was a self-pompous git to me. It really hurt me. Truth is, I loved him back then hoping he would be the one I married. Now, I think I still love him, but I'll never tell him that.

A/N: Ok now I know that this isn't that long of a chapter. Like I said it's my first fanfic story. Please give me feedback on this. Let me know if I should continue or just ditch it altogether. Hope you enjoyed it. Also let me know what I should but in it cause I'm just writing off the top of my head for this story lol.
