Hermoine lay awake on her bed, only two more days before she would be back in Hogwarts with her friends. She would be head girl this year. But this isn't what bothered her. Hermoine had other matters on her mind; she had bumped into Draco Malfoy earlier that day whilst shopping in Diagon Ally, but he wasn't his normal self. Something was wrong but she didn't know what. It hadn't been the first time she had seen him during the summer holidays; she had spotted him in a muggle supermarket with his mother. Hermoine thought about it for a moment and ran her fingers through her curly chestnut hair, before slowly drifting off to sleep.

As the light poured through her window the next morning Hermoine tried shielding herself from the sun with her blanket, "Piss off" she mumbled, "It's too early!"

"No it's not Hermoine Granger, now get out of bed before I count to three or there will be hell to pay young lady!" called her mother from her doorway, "1.2."

"Alright, alright I'm up already!" yelled Hermoine throwing off the cover, "Happy now?"

Her mother smiled, "Now Hermoine dear, get dressed. We have visitors."

Hermoine raised her eyebrow and walked into the bathroom. She had defiantly changed during the summer holidays; she had gained curves in all the right places and was turning out to be an attractive young woman. Hermoine placed her hair in a clip and walked back into her bedroom to get dressed. After a few minutes she pulled out her blue denim jeans and her army tank top. Yawning she walked down stairs.

Draco was sitting in his new next-door neighbours house. Since his father had been sent to Azkaban a few months back his mother had forced them to live in the muggle world to protect them in case his father ever escaped. Draco didn't like this one bit, but would do anything to please his mother. "Here she is, everyone this is my daughter" called his next-door neighbour as her daughter came down the stairs. Draco turned around quickly and smiled. She wasn't bad looking even for a muggle. He turned back round and looked at the box in front of him. People were dancing around inside it. Draco found this quite creepy at first but soon got used to it.

Narcissa smiled and stuck out her hand towards the girl; Draco smiled watching what she had told him was a "Television". His mother had always been sweet and deep down he was glad his father was rotting away in Azkaban after the way he had treated them both. Now that his father was in Azkaban he could live his life how he wanted to. Draco's thoughts were interrupted however when his mother squealed with delight. "You're the same age as my Drakey." Narcissa tapped him on the shoulder, "Don't be so rude and say hello to this lovely young woman, she's absolutely adorable!"

Draco nodded and muttered, "yes mother" before standing up and turning around.

Hermoine's face turned to horror as she saw Draco Malfoy standing before her, in her living room. After a few moments of silence she managed to blurt out,

"Malfoy what are you doing here?" Draco who looked to be as shocked as her didn't say anything, Hermoine watched him as he opened is mouth to say something but decide against it and close his mouth again.

Narcissa beamed from ear to ear, "You two already know each other? Oh this is brilliant!" It then suddenly struck her, "Oh yes, you're Hermoine Granger aren't you, the most brilliant girl in Hogwarts, I've heard a lot about you, my son speaks highly of you." Hermoine blushed and looked at Draco, his cheeked had turned the same colour as hers.

"Why don't you show Draco round, Unless Narcissa objects that is" came Hermoine's mother to break the ice. Narcissa nodded and smiled as Hermoine looked at her mother with a pleading look, "Now Hermoine where are your manners" she continued. Hermoine looked to the ground, her mum was right.

"I'll go get my purse," she muttered as she walked upstairs. Hermoine sighed and sat on her bed, "It's the last day of my holidays and I'm going to have to share it with Draco bloody Malfoy! Brilliant, Bloody Brilliant!" She threw a pillow towards the door unaware that Draco was standing in the doorway.

Draco caught the pillow and chuckled, "That's not a very nice way to talk about you're new next-door neighbour now is it Granger!" Hermoine jumped slightly then looked towards him.

"Go to hell Draco!" Hermoine replied angry.

Draco sighed slightly and walked over to her bed placing her pillow back on her bed. "I didn't ask to live next-door to you, that was my mother's fault. Now she has told me to get along with every one," he gritted his teeth, "and I promised her I would do that for her. Now Granger do you want me to break a promise to my own mother?" Hermoine shook her head so Draco continued, "I don't want to spend the day with you as much as you do but we have to do this so we might as well get this over and done with." Draco put out his hand to help Hermoine up, she sighed then placed her hand on Draco's as he helped her up.
