Chapter 1: The Heads
The war had ended and Voldemort was dead while the rest of the deatheaters were either killed or imprisoned.
Their seventh year had started and definitely, Hermione became head girl.
"Hey, who do you think is head boy?" Hermione asked Ron and Harry
"Dunno." Ron said
"No idea." Harry said.
"Do you think it could be Malfoy?"
"Malfoy. Maybe."
"You think so?"
"It can be Malfoy but I wish it wasn't. He's gonna annoy me to death when I least need it."
"Will the heads please go to the heads compartment? You will be told of your duties and your assignments for this school year." Said McGonagall through the speaker
"Well, I gotta go. I'll catch up with ya later."
"Bye!"
Hermione went to the heads compartment. The head boy hadn't arrived yet so she sat down and waited. The door slid open and when Hermione turned, Draco was entering the compartment like he owned it.
"Now that all of you are here, you will lead the first years to the great hall. Then, you will also tell the prefects of their duties which I listed on this parchment. You will also plan for the Halloween Ball, Winter Ball and Valentines Ball. You will also make the patrolling schedule."
"Yes Professor McGonagall." The two said together
"Malfoy, you tell the prefects what they will do."
"And what will you do Granger?"
"I'm gonna tell the first years on what to do and that we are about to arrive."
"Who are you to order me around?"
"Well, you want to tell the first years? I gave you an easier task because I know you can't handle what I'll do." Hermione snapped. Before Draco could answer, Hermione had already left the compartment.
The two did all their duties and still had time to relax for a while. Hermione went to the Heads compartment and she changed into her uniform and school robes. She sat down and looked out the window. A tear started falling from her eye as she stared into the view.
Draco went in, "Granger, do you mind leaving?"
Hermione turned and she quickly wiped the tear away. "Why should I?"
"Cause I'll change. But you can stay if you want to stare?"
"Eww Malfoy. Why would I ever stare at a ferret like you?"
Hermione left and she started looking for Ron and Harry. She found them with Ginny.
"Hey Gin!"
"Hey Mione!"
Hermione hugged Ginny and then she went back to her own compartment. Luckily, Malfoy wasn't there anymore. Good! That stupid ferret isn't here to bother me. I bet he's somewhere snogging a girl. Hermione thought.
The train stopped and she knew they had arrived. She did what she was told to do. Then the usual thing happened. The sorting of the first years, the feast and other things.
Professor McGonagall led them to their rooms. They saw a portrait of a couple. She knew they were the first head boy and head girl. "You may choose whatever password you wish. You have two rooms but you share one bathroom and a common room. Goodnight." Professor McGonagall left them.
"Malfoy, what should our password be?"
"Let me think."
After a while, "I know. Oblivious." Draco said
"Okay. Whatever. Oblivious it is."
They entered and the common room was very large. There were two desks, one long couch, a fireplace and two armchairs.
Hermione entered her room and saw that she had her own balcony, a big closet with a mirror attached to one of the doors of the closet, and a large four poster bed. There was a chandelier on the top and a small lamp at the side. There was also another study table with its own little lamp and a book shelf was placed beside it.
She entered the bath room and saw a bathtub with a shower that could fit four people. A toilet bowl and a sink with a mirror above it.
She went back into her room and grabbed a towel. She prepared a bath for herself with bubbles. She lit scented candles to help her relax.
After her bath, she dried her hair and slipped into her pjs. She looked at the time and decided she could still read a little so she grabbed a book and sat down.
Hermione heard a door open. She knew it was Malfoy but she didn't know what he was doing since she didn't look up.
Malfoy sat on the other end of the couch and he looked at Hermione. A smile seemed to creep up his face. When he realized he was smiling, he immediately brought back his expressionless face.
"What are you reading, Granger?"
"Why would you want to know? It was written by a muggle."
"I couldn't care less but is it wrong to ask?"
"No. Okay. Stop annoying me and I'll tell you."
"Whatever Granger. I don't even want to annoy you."
"It's Romeo and Juliet."
"That sounds familiar."
"It was written by Shakespeare."
"Still doesn't ring a bell."
"Shut up now will ya? I told you to stop annoying me so bugger off."
Draco left Hermione and he went into his room. He felt like he needed fresh air so he went outside to his balcony and he conjured a bench and he sat on it.
He looked at the night sky and admired its beauty. He had always loved the night sky. It brought some kind of peace to his soul.
Hermione stopped reading the book after Draco had left. She also went to her balcony and sat down on a bench she had jus conjured.
She looked at the night sky and just loved staring at the stars and the moon. It looked so magical that it seemed like it brought bliss within her.
They both knew they had to sleep since classes would start the following morning.
Hermione went to her bed and she had drowned into her sleep. Draco, however, couldn't sleep that night. He asked himself why he had smiled when he was looking at Hermione.
Why the hell did I smile? That was the first time I smiled in years and I smiled while looking at that filthy mudblood. It just can't be. I hate her. I hate Her—Granger. Was I about to say Hermione? Oh no. I'm going crazy. Agh! I really have to get some sleep!
Draco wasn't able to sleep that night. He couldn't stop thinking about how he smiled when he looked at Hermione.
He went down to the Great Hall like a zombie. He was so tired since he didn't get any sleep. He ate and left to go to his classes.
At the end of the day, he felt so tired. Especially since he had quidditch practice after his classes. His muscles were sore and his eyes couldn't stay open. He felt happy that he didn't have any homework that day.
He threw his things over a chair and he thought, I'll just lust lye down on the couch for a while and relax for a minute. I'll take a shower then go to dinner.
Moments after, he had fallen into a deep sleep. Hermione entered the common room just seconds after Draco had fallen into his slumber.
She looked over at him and she smiled.
