I'm back! I haven't forgotten my other stories, I had stuff with family.

Disclaimer ~ I don't own Harry Potter or any of the characters, they belong to J.K. Rowling. The situations are mine.

Summary ~ Been done before... Blah blah BLAH! Hope this one is different. "If you are reading this, only love for Harry could have revealed this."

Setting ~ Slight AU after OOTP / HBP never happened / No Horcruxes / They're in year seven BEFORE the Final Battle.

I made Draco Head Boy. As much as I ADORE Harry and Hermione as Head Boy/Head Girl, you see it coming and I like a little mystery. Draco is unexpected, lol. And Harry already has enough on his shoulders.

I know it seems like it's Draco/Hermione at first but it is 100% Harry/Hermione! The Harry/Hermione is a slow build but it will come

Pairing(s) ~ Harry/Hermione, Draco/Ginny, Ron/Lavender, Neville/Luna

~ Harmony Nox 101

Back to Hogwarts

Senenteen year old Hermione Granger paced in the Head Boy/Head Girl compartment on the Hogwarts Express. Her tamed-yet-still-frizzy hair swished as she turned around and paced the other way, blowing a few wisps of hair out of her eyes. She can feel it, this is the year. She didn't know what it was but it's a feeling she just can't shake. She stared out the window hearing the voices floating along the breeze as students greeted and chatted happily. She pinched her nose lost in thought about the research she's been doing since the end of 5th year. Power the Dark Lord knows not. What could that mean?

The sound of the door sliding open shook her out of her head-aching thoughts as she spun around in shock. "Malfoy? Why are you Head Boy? I surely thought-"

The strikingly blonde git smirked as he stepped further in, "Granger-" he greeted, "-You thought Potter?" She turned her back to him closing her fists at her sides, glaring out the window. Sounds of him shuffling around some of his things could be heard in the background. He sat down staring at the girl with her back towards him as he chuckled causing her to snort in annoyance.

"Professor McGonagall thought he had enough on his shoulders. We're going to be living together for a year, we could at least try to be cordial Hermione" he spoke to her back. Silence met his ears and it seemed like minutes but was only seconds in actuality, she turned around and sat across from him, brown eyes glaring at him. He chuckled as her eyes narrowed as she huffed in annoyance, "Alright Draco." she agreed skeptically.

He cleared his throat and smirked as she restrained herself from crossing the room and slapping it off his face. There was something different in his smirk as they stared each other down. The door slid open once again as a red head poked through before falling to the floor with a yell. A raven haired boy stepped over him smirking down at his friend. She leapt up throwing her arms around his neck as his went around her waist with equal vigor. Ron grunted getting to his feet, nudging Harry good naturedly as arms wrapped around his neck, "Missed you too Hermione." he chuckled. He stiffened seeing the fifth person in the room.

"Malfoy." He hissed letting go of her.

"Weaselby." He sneered from his seat.

"Malfoy." Harry spoke for the first time since entering the compartment. He nodded in his direction.

"Potter." Blondie gave a slight nod back to him as Hermione watched the two in confusion. Her eyebrows disappeared up in her bangs. Harry grabbed Ron gently by the collar pushing him out the door, "Come on, I haven't had my arse kicked in Wizard's chess this summer."

Hermione sat on the bench as the confusion grew deeper. The scene replayed on a loop the rest of the way as they rode in a surprisingly comfortable silence.

Hermione sat next to Ron as Harry, Ginny, and Luna who had come over to join them sat across from them at the Gryffindor table. She tuned out Dumbledore, the scene still playing in her head. She shook her head as Ron tapped her shoulder, "McGonagall wants to see you and the ferret." he growled on the last word. Harry just watched in silence as she grew even more confused. She followed the blonde Slytherin up to the Head Table as McGonagall led them out. Again, a surprising comfortable silence surrounded them as they walked down hallways and turned corners before stopping at a picture of four people. Hermione blinked in realization as she gasped, "Is that-" she broke off as Godric Gryffindor, Helga Hufflepuff, Rowena Ravenclaw, and Salazar Slyhterin waved at her.

McGonagall stepped forward and placed her hands on the picture frame and pushed gently. The wall moved back leading to a spiral stairwell as she led them in, the wall closed behind them. They came to a door as McGonagall spoke, "Power he knows not" and the door swung open. She stepped aside and motioned for them to enter and stepped into a big common room.

"Head Boy's dorm is up the stairs to the left and the Head Girl's is up the stairs to the right." She waved her hand as the fireplace sparked with life wishing them a good night. Again a comfortable silence filled the room as Hermione and Draco met eyes.

"You okay Granger? You've been too quiet" She blinked wearily giving a silent nod

He chuckled and faked shock, "Hermione Granger, speechless?" He drawled placing a hand over his heart before turning serious. "You can trust me Hermione." He spoke cryptically turning and heading to his dorm. Hermione gawked at the walking figure that she was stuck for a year with before walking to her dorm.
