"You bloody muggle!" Draco spat, in disbelief.
"Shut it, or we'll get in trouble, ferret!" Hermione harshly whispered, but then bit on her tongue to stop herself from continuing speaking.
Draco Malfoy was disgusted, but confused, when Granger- Hermione Granger, with hair that greatly resembled a loin, and who followed Potter, and Weasly around like a little puppy dog. I mean, God, was she desperate?
Anyway, she had told him, a Malfoy, a snake to shut it! Not only that- she had called him a ferret! The nerve!
"How dare you, Granger." Draco whispered back, venomously.
Suddenly Snape appeared behind them, but neither noticed.
"You bloody, spoiled dim-wit! You'll get us detention!" Hermione warned, with just as much hatred in her voice. "Can't you be a human for once? I don't need Snape angry with me, right now! For goodness sake! Shut the fuck up!"
Just as Snape opened his mouth to deduct points from Potter's house, Draco Malfoy decided to open his.
"You're so bloody annoying! I, a Malfoy will not get detention. I do not deserve detention! You should learn to damn well to keep your mouth shut, Mudblood, or Scar face, and Weasel will have some snakes on their tails. Wouldn't want that now, would you, you damned dirty Mudblood?" Draco smirked, satisfied when Hermione did not respond, except for huffing and turning away from him, to copy some notes that were on the board. Draco tapped his quill in ink, and copied what she was writing, still wearing his famously annoying, but sexy smirk.
"Granger, Malfoy," Snape started, and instantly both of the students went stiff, Snape continued, in a monotone; "One hundred and fifty points will be deducted from each of your houses-" Hermione groaned in disappointment, mumbling about how unfair Snape was (lucky thing he choose to ignore her), and Malfoy opened his mouth to protest, but Snape silenced him with a glare, and continued, shaking his head, "If either of you talk to each other in such a disrespectful way, again, in my class, detention will be your coincidence, if you are to get this detention it will be in the Forbidden Forrest, understood?" Snape finished.
Hermione nodded her head, a frown on her usually cheerful features. Draco was about to protest again, but saw that Hermione was biting her lip, and that her eye brows were clenched together- he realized she was scared, and so he smirked.
"Yes, Professor Snape, I understand, completely. Thank you, sir, for the warning." Malfoy said, just as Snape was walking away.
Snape started class; they were only learning from the D.A.D.A textbook today, which would be easy, and boring.
However Snape, suddenly put his students into pairs, Draco was dozing slightly, until he heard his name paired with… who was he supposed to work with?
And Hermione was happily answering the Challenge Question in the textbook, when she heard she would have to answer the remaining questions with...who?
"Sir, I'm sorry, I must have heard you wrong- who should I work with?"
Snape glared at Hermione, but cleared his throat and repeated himself. "Granger and Malfoy." Snape glanced to Draco warning him not to say anything along the lines of 'not the Mudblood!' and then reminded them about what he said earlier in the period.
Draco refused to move his desk closer to Hermione's, so with a frustrated sigh Hermione moved closer to him, trying to avoid detention in the Forbidden Forrest.
After much snapping, and glaring, Hermione and Draco finished the questions, and were now sitting in their seats. Everyone else was having difficulty completing the task. Draco was staring out the window- that was right above Hermione's head, and Hermione was doodling idly on a piece of parchment.
The bell rang seconds later- but both were hesitant to leave.
Everyone else was gone in about 30 seconds, escaping Snape, before he could deduct anymore house points, or make any one cry, for not finishing their work.
Hermione and Draco had both heard the bell, but they were comfortable. Working together hadn't been as bad as they thought it would. It was actually quite refreshing (for both of them) to be working with someone of their intelligence, and doing equal work- instead of doing all the work, because their partner didn't want to do their share- or they didn't understand any of the work.
Snape sat down at his desk, took out a quill, dipped it in ink, and started writing to Albus Dumbledore, with his success in getting the soon to be Head Boy and Head Girl, to be civil to each other. After all, next year they would have to share a common room with each other. Snape smirked; yes, this would be easy.
Snape looked up, expressionlessly, and saw that Hermione and Draco were sitting very close to each other, going about their own interests… What a sight, it was. They were enemies, were they not?
Snape cleared his throat, "You'll be late for your next class." He stated loudly.
