Hermione Granger had changed over the summer. She was slimmer, she now had wavy, brown hair and she had developed in some areas. She had also changed her wardrobe. Instead of the boring, goody-goody outfits, she now wore tight fitting clothes. But the best thing that had happened over the summer? She was now officially Ron Weasley's girlfriend. Hermione had gone over to the Burrow for the last month of summer and Ron had enough courage to ask her out, which she of course said yes.

That had been a month ago, and now here she was sitting in a compartment, crying. Why was she crying? Her stupid, idiotic, ass of a boyfriend had been found, by her, making out with none other than Lavender-fucking-Brown. The Lavender Brown who told her she should go out and date Ron, the Lavender Brown that helped them on their first date and now the Lavender Brown that was snogging her boyfriend. Ex-boyfriend Hermione thought.

Hermione was sitting in the Heads Compartment. Yes, she had gotten Head Girl and to utter dismay, Draco Malfoy had gotten Head Boy. Not only was she sure that they had the exact same classes this year; she would have to share a common room and bathroom with him.

Uggh, I desperately need someone to talk to she thought. But no, she couldn't go anywhere, she was supposed to stay here and wait for the Head Boy and then Professor McGonagall to explain what they were doing this year. Even if she could leave, she'd have nowhere to go. Ron was with Lavender and Harry has asked for some alone time with Ginny. Hermione sighed and leaned her head against the window. She had almost fallen asleep when she heard the click of the compartment door open.

"Waiting for me mudblood?" drawled a voice.

"Oh, yes of course, I would always wait for you Ferret Boy," Hermione replied, sarcastically.

Draco Malfoy had taken a seat across from her and pulled out a book to read. Draco had too, changed over the summer. He had more of a built body from Quidditch, his silvery, blond hair came just above his ears and he had taken a liking to muggle clothing. Wearing dark, baggy jeans and a white t-shirt, he looked hot.

Girls had noticed him this year. Well they had always noticed him, but he was even more noticeable this year. Girls clinging to him everywhere he went, especially Pansy Parkinson.

Ahh, yes, Pansy Parkinson that's another reason why he had arrived so early. She had been groping him and trying to make him shag her or something, so he had immediately flew out of there and arrived here earlier than he expected.

"Why are you here so early, Malfoy?" asked Hermione.

"If you really must know, I was trying to get away from Pansy Parkinson. Stupid girl has been grabbing me and clinging to me. Very annoying," he answered.

"Of course she was grabbing you, she's like in love with you, which is pretty hard to believe because look at you."

"Ha ha, Granger. You may think that now but in a couple of months you'll be falling head over heels in love with me too. Girls always do."

Just as she was about to answer, the compartment door opened and in walked Professor McGonagall and Professor Snape.

"Well, it looks like you haven't killed each other yet, so let's get down to business," started Professor McGonagall. "As Heads, you will be living together, which means, you will have your own bedrooms but you will share a common room and bathroom. You will both patrol the corridors on different nights and you will have to organize Hogsmeade trips or Balls if Professor Dumbledore allows it. Any questions?"

They both shook their heads and Professor McGonagall headed out. Professor Snape handed both of them their schedules early.

"You two should get into your robes, we will be arriving soon," he spoke and without another word he left.


A few moments later the train had stopped and both got out and searched for their friends.

Hermione found Ginny a few minutes later in one of the carriages. She hoped in beside Ginny.

"Hermy, I just found out what happened. Are you okay?" Ginny asked, concerned.

"Yeah, I mean, I just thought he loved me," Hermione answered.

"What are you talking about?"

"Your brother was snogging Lavender when I walked in on them."

"Oh, I'm so sorry Herms. I was talking about how you have to live with Malfoy. I'll talk to my brother."

"NO! Don't. It's his fault. Look we're here let's just go inside and eat."

The two of them walked in silence to the Great Hall. They sat down by Harry, Seamus, Neville and Ron. He of course tried to speak to Hermione.

"Listen, Mione, what you saw on the train was nothing, I love you," he whined.

"Well, unfortunately for you, I don't love you. Oh look Dumbledore's talking," she replied, turning to face the front.

"Welcome, old faces and new, to another year at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Professor McGonagall will you please start the sorting ceremony," spoke Dumbledore.

Professor McGonagall called up the first name "Alen, Fiona" who turned out to become a Ravenclaw. After the sorting was done, Dumbledore got up once again to speak.

"Thank you Professor. Our caretaker, Argus Filch has asked me to remind you that the Forbidden Forest is out of bounds and that anything from Weasley's Whizzes will be confiscated. But onto different matters, this year's Head Boy and Head Girl are Draco Malfoy from Slytherin and Hermione Granger from Gryffindor." He then began to clap, which everyone followed in suit. "Also we have a new Professor this year. Her name is Professor Halligan. She will be teaching something for the seventh years which will begin tomorrow. Now will the prefects please lead the first years to their common rooms and would the Head Girl and Boy follow me. Goodnight."


The three of them walked slowly to a deserted corridor with only a very big portrait of a snake and a lion. Professor Dumbledore stopped in front of the portrait.

"The Head Girl gets to pick the password. Miss Granger?" spoke Dumbledore.

"Uhm, mysterious love," replied Hermione. The portrait opened and they walked in.

"Mr. Malfoy your room is to the left and Miss Granger your room is to the right. Goodnight." Dumbledore turned and left, leaving Hermione and Draco to look around the room in awe.

The common room was part silver and part gold. There was a big fireplace with a couch in front of it. Beside the fireplace were two desks, one on the left and one on the right, with bookcases beside both of them.

Hermione went to her room only to be more surprised. The walls were red, with a white carpet. The bed was in the middle of the left wall and across from it was a big dresser with a mirror. Her bed was covered in gold, silk sheets with red pillows. In the far corner was a small round table with two white chairs.

"My room at the manor is bigger than this," drawled a voice from behind her.

Hermione spun around to see Malfoy leaning against the door frame. "Well some people appreciate all the work others put into this," she said.

"Whatever. Goodnight mudblood." He turned around and walked back to his room.

"Goodnight ferret-boy." Hermione changed into her pjs and crawled into bed. This is going to be one loooooooong year she thought and then she drifted off to sleep.

She didn't know how right she was.
