It was a cold winter morning, the snow was falling gently on the grounds of Hogwarts and Hermione was seeing the others off on the latest Hogsmeade trip"Sure you don't want to come with us Hermione?" Ginny asked. "I'll be fine, trust me" she replied glaring at Ron and Lavender snogging. Hermione was sick. Sick of everyone having someone except had Ginny and Ron had Lavender, she hated being left out and being on her own. It's not that they didn't invite her out with them, they did it's just she felt uncomfortable around Ron after their break-up. Plus him and Lavender couldn't stay apart for more than 5 seconds. Ginny followed her line of sight "Oh… okay then, I guess we'll see you when we get back" she grabbed Harry's hand and walked started towards the library, she had a Charms essay to finish and seeing as she had nothing else to do this was a perfect opportunity. Once she reached the library she chose her favourite spot near the back and sat down. Not long after she had started writing she felt someone sit beside her. She continued writing hoping they would go away but when they didn't she looked up to see who it was. It was Draco… "Glad to see you finally noticed Granger" he smirked "I was beginning to think you'd gone blind". Hermione was not in the mood for an argument, so she simply said "What is it Malfoy? I'm kind of busy" she was hoping he'd hurry up and leave so she could continue on her homework. "I was just wondering where Potter and Weasley are? I mean don't you usually follow them around like an obedient dog?" he sneered. Hermione glared at Malfoy defiantly "There at Hogsmeade, I prefer staying in with weather like this" she gestured out the window to the snow falling. Malfoy smiled to himself like he was enjoying a private joke "What's so funny?" she snapped "Calm down Granger, It's just you and I both know that's not the reason you're here at all". She tried to hide her feelings but obviously didn't do a very good job "And what, pray tell is the reason I'm here exactly?" she asked knowing he wouldn't know and would just leave. "It's because you feel left out, I mean Potter's got the Weasley girl and Weasley has Lavender, face it, they don't have time for you anymore". Hermione started packing up her things before the tears started flowing "Well, why are you here then? I thought you'd be ordering Crabbe and Goyle around". "Granger, if I want something I'll just get father to send it, I don't even have to leave the castle, these trips are merely for those who don't have that luxury" he was still smiling. "Well then, I suppose that's all?" she looked him dead in the face, trying to look as calm as possible. His face fell "Look Granger, face it, you hate being alone and there is more to life then books and spells. If you come with me I'll show you a good time ok?". " Draco Malfoy? Being nice?" Hermione said trying not to laugh, "I know but I can't really think of anything else to do" he replied also holding back laughter. "Ok then, I'll just drop my books of-". "No need" said Draco and with a flick of his wand her books were gone. "Thanks Draco" said Hermione as they headed out of the library.
