Hermione Granger put a spring to her jump as she hopped aboard the Hogwarts Express for the first time. Although she was incredibly excited for her coming years as a witch, but she needed a place to focus on her studying. She spied a redhead boy with a bag of popcorn by his side, talking to a boy whose face was covered, but she could clearly see the black hair and the glasses. Yes, she had done her research. That was definitely the famous Harry Potter.
She started in their direction, but stopped abruptly and remembered she was a tad bit behind on the magical stuff, so she slithered in on an almost empty compartment. There was a boy sitting in it, with scruffy hair and a pet toad. She cleared her voice, and the boy lifted his head reluctantly.
"Hi, my name's Hermione Granger. Pleased to meet you. And you are...?"
"N.. Neville Longbottom." He cracked a smile. Hermione bobbed her head and opened a thick book and smiled.
"I'm so excited, Neville! There's so many interesting facts about Hogwarts!" Neville lifted his head up curiously.
"Yes, for example, apparation. I've always wanted to learn how to apparate, but witches and wizards are not allowed to apparate or disapparate in Hogwarts ground." She paused for a second. "Interesting, isn't it, Neville?"
A clear look on his face told her he was also fascinated. Hermione grinned wider. "Muggle technology won't work in there either. Y'know, because of all the magic." she added.
Neville smiled. "Really?"
"Furthermore, muggles can't see Hogwarts. Isn't that brilliant?"
"Wow, you sure know a lot about Hogwarts!" He complimented. Maybe I wasn't behind like I thought, thought Hermione.
"Thanks! I-" her voice was interrupted by the sharp screeching of the compartment door being opened.
"What do they see instead?"
There was a boy about her age, armed with two emotionless bodyguards. His blonde hair was gelled and he had the same curious face as Neville, if not more stern and focused. Wow, a lot of people want to know about Hogwarts! I sure hope I learned enough. she thought to herself.
She snapped out of her daydream quickly. "I-I'm sorry?" she said, turning around.
The blonde haired boy seemed dazed for a moment, then tried to cover it up by coughing in his fist. His face was as red as a tomato.
"I-I said, what do they see instead? The muggles, I mean."
Hermione clutched her book tightly and scrutinized it. "Oh.. well, according to 'Hogwarts History', muggles can only see ruins there... with a sign saying "Danger. Do not enter." it's quite ingenious, really."
The blonde boy pondered it over for a few seconds. "Father never told me that," was the only response he gave, but after a while he added, "Yes, I guess it is a well-designed cover. We wouldn't want muggles traipsing all over our school now, would we?"
Hermione nodded. "Of course not! Muggles aren't supposed to know about magic, excluding some exceptional few. My parents are both-"
She was interrupted the second time in that hour, but this time, by the train.
"We will be reaching Hogwarts in five minutes' time. Please leave your luggage on the train, it will be taken to the school separately."
The blonde casually inspected his fingernails. "Well, looks like I have to get going, but it was a pleasure talking to you. I completely agree on your opinion."
Hermione shared his smile. "Likewise. I'm Hermione Granger. And you are...?"
He inhaled. "Draco. Draco Malfoy." after a few moments of silence, he hastily offered a hand, to which Hermione gladly shook.
"Pleasure."
"First years, first years!" The rough voice of Hagrid was heard when Hermione took the steps off the train. "Come on now, first years, don't be shy Hurry up!" She waved goodbye to Neville and stopped to remember she wanted to get along with Harry Potter and the redhead. She smiled and started off in their direction, only to be stopped again.
"Granger!" A familiar voice rang out behind her. Draco Malfoy took a sprinting step to stand next to her. "We meet again."
"Hello, Malfoy!" She readily said as they started walking in the direction of the boats. "Er.."
Malfoy looked behind him. "What's that?"
"May I ask why those two," she pointed at the expressionless bodyguards, "keep following you wherever you go?"
Malfoy dismissed the question with a wave of his hand. "That's Crabbe and Goyle. Don't worry. Our fathers know each other."
"Nice to meet you too." expectantly, there was no response, except Hagrid's continuous shouting of, 'Alright lads, to the boats!'. Malfoy snapped her out of her unfailing stare at Harry Potter and his friend.
"Mind if I join you in the boats!" Malfoy asked, his face turning velvet.
Hermione shook her head cheerfully. "Not at all! Come on!" she grasped his hand and they hurried along with the others. Malfoy turned even redder. Her touch was downright warm. And he was never going to forget it.
