Hermione's brown hair falls to her shoulder as she inhaled the smell of the smoke. She's currently in platform 93/4, sitting on a bench waiting for Luna and Ginny to come. Her black coat warms her over the cold. Under her black coat, she's wearing a white plain shirt and black skinny jeans. Brown boots to warm her cold feet.

She turned back and spotted Ginny with a black fur jacket white dress, brown leather belt

"Good morning, Mrs. Weasley" Hermione put her best smile.

Mrs. Weasley smiled back, "Oh, Hermione, you look lovely"

Hermione quickly then hugged Harry, Ron and Ginny without a word.

"I'll leave you then, goodbye" Mrs. Weasley hugged her and Ginny, and then walked away.

"So, how was your summer Hermione?" Harry asked.

"Well—"

"Oi, The train is leaving!" Ron cut her sentence, but Hermione wasn't mad, as she always was if Ron cut her sentences, because the train is leaving.

"Oh no" Hermione said quietly and ran with the others towards one of the entrance of Hogwart's train. Thankfully, they made it. Ron and Harry went to find a place to sit for while Ginny and Hermione looks for Luna.

"So, anything to share of what happened during summer?" Ginny asked curiously. Hermione slide the door to go to the other unit of the train and bumped to Malfoy, Draco Malfoy.

Draco looked at Hermione, surprised, stunned silent for a while, then walked pass her and Ginny.

"I'm certainly surprised he did not call us names!" Ginny exclaimed as Hermione stood silently.

"You know something!" Ginny cried, "Something happened during summer!"

"Ginny! Lower your voice!" Hermione whispered, covering Ginny's mouth with her hand. Ginny nodded, grinning, and went back on their search for Luna. Ginny was grinning during the whole time of searching Luna, finally they found her.

"Is that Luna with Blaise?" Hermione questioned Ginny, "That's very odd"

"Very, very odd" Ginny replied. A few minutes later, they were snogging. "Whoa, what has happened during the summer, I mean seriously"

"I think we better change to our uniforms" Hermione suggested, Ginny nodded in reply. They both went to change to their uniforms in a changing room, which was made last year. Hermione took out her uniform from a bag, which was carried here earlier.

"Hermione!" Ginny shrieked, "Your skirt is awfully long!"

"It's awfully new, Gin" Hermione took out her old, short skirt and showed it to Ginny.

"You should use your old one!" Ginny exclaimed, throwing it back to Hermione "it still fits you, right?"

"Yes, it still does, but like I said, it's awfully short!" Hermione replied

"Oh, come on, my skirt is even shorter!" Ginny rolled her eyes.

"Fine…" Hermione knew she would not win a debate about fashion with Ginny, if it is anything about studies, Hermione will totally win.

They both put on their uniforms then went out.

"See!" Ginny said in excitement, "You look more gorgeous with the short skirt"

Hermione smiled and rolled her eyes, the train then stopped. They went out and walked to the carriages that will bring them to Hogwarts.

They didn't share their carriage with anyone because they were the last ones to show up at the carriage stop, it seems.

"So, will you tell me what happened on summer?"

Hermione sighed and told her what happened between her and Malfoy.

Flashback

Hermione was in a muggle bookstore searching for books to read and buy. She was looking through the fiction shelf when she bumped her head with a guy with blonde hair.

"I'm so sorry" Hermione apologized, the guy turned around.

Malfoy. Draco Malfoy.

"Malfoy? What are you doing here?" Hermione questioned, "I thought you dislike muggles"

"I had and will always dislike muggles and mudbloods" Draco replied.

"And exactly why are you doing here?"

"Books"

"I thought you—"

"I told you I dislike mudbloods, not muggle books"

"But still—"

"Shut it, Granger" He said as he walked away.

"Malfoy!" he then went out of the store.

That ferret, typical Slytherin, Hermione thought. She looked down the floor and saw an old photo of a very beautiful woman smiling happily, which looks a little bit like Malfoy.

She went out from the store and looked for Malfoy. She had to give the photo back, it somehow seems important for him since he brings it with him. She didn't see him anywhere, so she decided to keep it until her next meeting with Malfoy.

She sighed and walked home.
