Chapter One

Hey, I don't own Harry Potter. This will be my only disclaimer, JKR can go kick rocks and tell the world wizards and witches shat themselves.


Hey, Herminnie?" A very young Draco questioned.

"Hmm?" Came her lazy reply. Her best friend since they had been in nappies had always struggled with pronouncing her name. She didn't blame him, however, because it really was a hard one.

"Why's the sky blue?" He whispered with all the innocence of a child.

"Oh, that's easy. 'Cause it's Baby Jesus's favourite colour," Hermione stated matter-of-factly.

"That makes no sense, Hermione. The sky was blue before Jesus was borned," Draco snorted at her ridiculous answer.

"Yeah, but his daddy is God, Draco. Dontcha think God would know what his baby's favourite colour would be before he was borned?" She huffed before levelling him with a stare that dared him to defy her logic.

The precocious four-year-old boy wouldn't be deterred however; Hermione's reasoning just didn't make sense and he was bound and determined to prove that.

"Herminnie?" He queried with a smirk.

"What, Draco?" The equally young and feisty Hermione snapped.

"Why is the grass green?" Draco couldn't help but snicker at the angry huff he heard beside him.

"Because grass is like a vegetable, Draco. To animals. And everyone knows vegetables are green." But she didn't seem as confident with that answer.

"What about carrots? Carrots are orange." Draco supplied, oh-so-helpfully.

"Um…because…bunnies like the colour orange?" Hermione asked, rather than told.

"Hey, Herminnie?" Draco whispered.

"Yeah?" She replied distractedly. Hermione was still contemplating her answer about the carrots.

"You're my best friend," he stated softly while a rosy blush painted his cheeks.

Hermione couldn't fight her smile, and as she turned to her side on the grass to face Draco, she whispered her reply.

"I know. You're my best friend too."
