A/N :Well, here's my first multi - chaptered story! ENJOY! Also the bits in italics is Hermione reminiscing.

Disclaimer : No, I am not Joanne Fucking Rowling. No, I won't magically morph into her during the course of the story - This applies for all the chapters.


Prologue

Hermione Granger sighed as she watched Draco clutch his wand and glare dangerously at the poor Muggle who had just entered the underground.

Ah, she had forgotten to explain the automatic doors to him.


She didn't know what she should have been expecting.
This was after all Draco Malfoy.

But it was the Draco Malfoy who had asked her if he could accompany her to her parent's house after their "eighth" year at Hogwarts. Yes. The very same Draco who was and had been her boyfriend for 6 months.

She remembered the day the world stopped making sense.. the day Draco Malfoy had asked her out.

Hermione, the head girl was sitting in the common room she shared with the head boy - Draco Malfoy. No, they both hadn't murdered each other on the first day. In fact, he wasn't so bad. He was almost... nice to her. She looked up from the book she was reading. Yes he was 'nice' to her.

Speak of the devil and he shall appear.

Draco Malfoy walked into the common room looking very flustered. Hermione looked down at her book again. She would be lying to herself if she said she didn't think of him. He certainly was easy on the eyes. But Hermione wasn't some night troll either. She had filled out quite nicely as she grew up.

"Ahem."

That brought her out of her musings. She looked at him, smiled sweetly, and then raised her eyebrows, wanting to know why he wanted to talk to her.

"Well there's Hogsmeade trip this weekend - "
"- Yeah, there is. What about it?"
"Um, you see I was wondering if - if -"
"- Yes?"
"You'llgooutwithme?"

"What?" she asked, even though she was sure she had heard him correctly.

"Oh come off it, Hermione. You heard me. I'm not gonna repeat it once again."

She grinned at the casual use of her first name.

"I'll take that as a yes?"

TRRRING!

Her cell phone ringing suddenly bought her out of her pleasant reminisces...
... that and Draco jumping next to her, pointing his wand at her poor cell-phone.

She sighed. Oh, Draco was certainly gonna learn a lot in these few weeks...


A/N : Well, that's it! Sorry for it being so short. I'll make it up in the other chapters. ;) And also, I'll include some more flashbacks in the next few chapters - including the one of Draco asking Hermione if he could stay at her parent's house with her.. R&R!
