Hermione's POV
'Ugh. New timetables' mumbled Ron.
'I can't believe we still have Potions with Slytherin. Double,too First thing Monday morning. Just what I need.'
'I'm just glad we don't have Umbridge for Defence against the Dark Arts.' said Harry staring at his right hand.
'I wonder if they have found a replacement for Umbridge yet? I mean that job has got to be cursed. One dead, one lost his memory, one werewolf, one imprisoned in his own trunk for nine months and now one driven to insanity,' said Ron counting on his fingers.
'And oddly enough, the werewolf was the best of the bunch.' said Harry cheerfully. It is good to see Harry happy. He hasn't really been happy since Sirius...
'Yeah. I think I've had enough werewolf talk. I need to go to the libraryto pick up a book before grabbing my Potions stuff.' I stood up and took a last bite of toast before heading off.
The moment I stepped out of the library, I heard an all tooo familiar drawl.
'Hullo, Mudblood.' I turned aroind and took my wand out and pointed it straight at Draco Malfoy's face.
'Leave me alone or I'll curse you. I know alot now. You don't want to anger me.' I stared straight into his cold grey eyes. But her merely smirked the famous Malfoy Smirk. He looked at his watch.
'Class starts in 5 minutes Granger. You don't want to be late now. Snape knows manu curses too. You don't want to anger him.' He turned around and walked away. I checked my watch and indeed there was only 5 minutes left till class. I rushed to the Gryffindor tower and then rushed to the dungeons. I made it before Snape and settled in a spot next to Ron.
'What took you so long?' he whispered.
'I meet Malfoy on the way' I said. 'And he kinda wasted some of my time. What on earth are you doing?' I watched as Ron made slashing motions with his hands. He kept pointing at odd places too.
'Anyway Malfoy is such a stupid git. Strutting around like he owns the place. Stop doing that Ron.' And he did. Which is odd because Ron never listens to me.
'What is wrong with you Ron? And where is Snape? Shouldn't he be here right now?'
'Maybe he is standing right behind you waiting for you to shut your little mouth.' said a very cold voice. Snape's voice. I turned around slowly. Not wanting to look in his eyes.
'Ms Granger. Move your cauldron to the front nextto Mr Malfoy. Ms Parkinsonyou will move here. No buts.' I moved as slowly as possible.
'Ms Granger 20 point from Gryffindor for disrupting my class.' There was no point arguing so I set up my cauldron silently.
'Today we are making an identity potion. This potion will unmask anyone. It allows them to show their true self. Any polyjuice potion cannot defend anyone against this.'
'You will be working in pairs. And fpr the next month you will be brewing this potion. Adding ingredients as you go. And be very very careful.' His eyes flickered at Neville.
'If this potion isn't brewed accuarately it can result to disastorous consequences.'
Snape wrote the ingredients and method on the board. And I looked around to see who I can pair with. Everyone was paired up already.Only Malfoy and Pansy Parkinson were left. Not great chocies.
'Wanna work with me?' asked the cold drawl of Draco Malfoy. What?! Did I just hear correctly? Did Malfoy ask me to work with him? I've got to be dreaming. Or nightmaring. Or day maring if there is such a thing. I must have had my mouth hanging open because he said
'If you're afraid of me screwing up the potion I won't. I'm just as good at potions as you are.' And the first time in my life I was speechless. It was true Malfoy is pretty good at potions.
'Look Granger I don't want to work with you as much as you don't want to work with me. But I know we both don't want to work with Pansy Parkinson. SAso let's just grit our teeth and bear it.' He was right. I really don't want to work with Pansy Parkinson. And it's a known fact to the whole female population at Hogwarts that Draco Malfoy was the cutest boy in the whole school. But if his looks had reflected his personality than he would be the ugliest creature alive. Anyway I stopped daydreaming just as Pansy shrieked out
'I don't want to work alone.'
'Ms Parkinson you have to work alone. Mr Finnigan is in the Hospital Wing. and we have odd numbers' said Snape.
'But I want to work with my Draky.' I can jsut hear Malfoy cursing under his breath. Sinking lower and lower into his seat, face all red. A chorus of laughter filled the room.
'Ms Parkinson you will work alone. End of discussion. Now get out the ingredients and the powdered toadstool is at the front of the room. Be very careful it is filled to the brim.'
I slowly got out the ingredients on the list.
' I cut. you measure?' I asked Malfoy. He nodded and we worked silently. No... Shut up, Mudblood or I'm not stupid, mudblood. Just this eerie silence. It's kind of creepy seeing Malfoy so silent.
'1 and 1/16th cup of eye of newt. 2 and 1/18th grams of dried bettle eyes' And he kept muttering that to himself. It is kinda hard to concentrate when he is muttering like that.
'What's left?' he asked. I stared him confused.
'What is the last ingredient left on the list?' he said slowly like he was talking to a five year old.
'Geez Granger and they call you a genius.' He smirked the famous smirk and I felt my cheeks go all red.
'Just the powdered toadstool. I'll go get some.' I walked to the front of the room and returned with a brown paper bag filled to the brim.
'Here it is.' Handing him the filled bag.
'Hey Draky!!!!' screeched Pansy Parkinson and I jumped and let go of the bag. Unfortunately do did Malfoy. And the bag tumbled into the cauldron. Then there was an explosion.
And everything went black....
A/N I'm not sure if they have working watches at hogwarts but in my story they do! Reveiw please! I can take constructive critisism!
