Chapter 1

Hermione stepped onto the train. She had walked through the platform 9 3/4 and not one person

had recognized her. She had walked right into Mrs. Weasley and she didn't even give Hermione a second

glance.

'This is my life now' Hermione thought darkly.

At least she still had Harry and Ron. It was their last year, and Hermione was Head Girl. She

thought back to when she received her owl that contained the news. Her mother had rushed home from the

dentist office to read the letter with her daughter, her mother didn't even see the truck that rammed into the

side of the car. The car had hit her mother so hard, that she immediately broke her neck causing instant

death. They later found out that the other driver was in a hurry to get to lunch and ran the stop sign so he

could make his lunch appointment on time.

Hermione's father was devastated. He never came home anymore and spent all his time at the

office. He started making more money and became promoted. Hermione saw her father four times total after

her mother died including the funeral. He was never home anymore. She was able to break into the alcohol cupboard and

smuggle some of it into her suitcase she was now carrying.

Hermione didn't even shed a tear thinking back when her mother died. Although her face didn't

show emotion, her heart still did. Her heart had grown very cold. She started wearing black. She even dyed

her hair black. But she hadn't succumbed to the white face and black lipstick yet.

Hermione looked down at her clothes. Of course no one recognized her, her clothes were the

epitome of Goth. She even had her tongue pierced. All in all, she had totally changed her appearance from a

dazzling bright beautiful perfect young lady to a dark depressed sad one. She looked down and tried to see

herself as someone else might. She was wearing a black lacy corsettype top and black stretch leather pants.

Her shoes were of the hooker type. With seven inch heels that started at the bottom of her knee and tied

down her leg.

She had grown a lot during the summer. She turned around to look at her ass, to see the leather

stretched seductively tight. And looking down at her chest, to see her breasts barely kept in check by her

tight shirt.

"This is going to be a fun year" she said out loud while walking down the aisle to the same

compartment that Harry, Ron and her had shared every year. Her heels clicked on the wooden floor and she

proceeded down the hall.

She opened the door with a loud bang and stepped inside.

"This compartment is saved" Ron said looking up at Hermione.

"What do you mean Ron?" Hermione said in a low voice and puckering her lips and tilting

her head to the side.

"HERMIONE?!" Ron and Harry yelled at the same time. They both started talking at the same

time.

"What did you--"

"What's with the--"

"Why the hell--?"

"Holy shit!" Harry said and sat down. He put his head between his legs and started breathing

heavily. Hermione laughed and sat down next to Harry. She loved the response. They hadn't seen her since

the end of the school year last year when she was still "Normal".

"I changed my appearance, jeez, isn't that okay with you guys?" Hermione asked. At that moment Ginny

walked in and spotted Hermione sitting next to Harry.

"Whoa" Ginny said looking Hermione up and down "Bad summer?" Ginny asked.

"You don't know the half" Hermione answered silently and looked out the train window. Harry and

Ron and Ginny all started talking about their summer they shared together, bringing back memories they had

shared and relived them over.

Hermione watched Harry gradually move his arm around the back of Ginny's seat.

Hermione smiled to herself, knowing for a fact that Harry still had a crush on Ginny since last year.

But Ron being Ron, he never notices anything and he didn't even see the love that Harry had for Ginny.

And then she remembered last year, before she left to go with her parents. She knew she had to tell

Ron her feelings. That she really liked him. She remembered the conversation like it was yesterday.

Flashback

"Ron, I really like you." Hermione said looking down at the ground.

"I like you too Hermione, I mean jeez, if I didn't why would I hang out with you all these years? "

sheesh! You're loosing your mind" he said laughingly.

"No, Ron, I like-like you. I like you a lot. I was just wondering if you feel the same way" she said

looking up into his eyes.

"Hermione, you can't like me! That's just not right! I mean, you're one of the guys! You can't

have these weird girl feelings! You're like a guyfriend to me!" he said forcefully. Hermione gaped at him

with her mouth wide open. She blinked several times and then turned around quickly and started walking

away.

"Hermione!" he yelled "Don't be mad at me!"

Hermione flipped around to face him again "Forget everything I said Ron, I was totally wrong

about my feelings for you" she said dejectedly. She turned around again and walked to her parents without

looking back once at Ron.

End of Flashback

Looking out at the rain plastering against the window she turned around and looked at Ron, only to

find him staring at her chest. He quickly looked away and asked Ginny if she brought any candy.

Hermione smiled, 'This is going to be fun, I am going to screw with his mind'. She stood up and

walked next to Ron. She reached up into the over head storage bin for something in her suitcase. She found

the bag she was looking for and set it down on the seat next to Ron. She sat down and opened it. Inside of

the bag was candy. She turned to Ron and popped a sucker into her mouth.

"Want some?" she asked. Ron was captivated by the way her mouth sucked on the candy.

Hermione could see him watching her mouth and she flicked her tongue out and licked the corner of her

mouth.

She picked up a single piece of candy and said "Open your mouth Ron" he obliged and she put it in

his mouth, her thumb brushed his bottom lip and she licked her lips again. Hermione leaned forward to Ron

and whispered in his ear "Good, isn't it?" her lips brushed his ear and Ron stood up quickly.

"I'll be back guys" Ron rasped quietly and walked out the door. Harry looked over at Hermione

and she just shrugged her shoulders.

"I'll be back" Harry said following Ron.

Ginny came over and sat by Hermione, she grinning widely.

"I saw that" Ginny said "And I think it was brilliant! Ron has been nothing but a nuisance this

whole summer! He doesn't even realize that me and Harry like each other. I think Ron likes you now, he

wouldn't stop talking about you this summer. The bloody idiot, he doesn't realize how stupid he is" they

both started laughing loudly until they heard the door slide open again. Starting with the shoes, Hermione's

eyes traveled up the strong muscled legs that showed through the pants. Traveling higher, she saw a belt

with a silver buckle with a snake engraved into it. A black shirt with the Malfoy crest embroidered in silver

in the corner. Stopping at his chest, Hermione noticed the muscles pulling his shirt taut over his chest. And

then finally looking up into his cold face, she saw the unforgettable sneer and cold gray eyes. His white

blonde hair gelled to perfection, with a few strands framing his face. Finally he spoke.

"Stop cackling" the cold voice said "That laugh would scare off any dementor for miles around,

now where is Granger little Weasel, I need to speak with her"

Ginny pulled her wand out and pointed it at him "What do you want with Hermione?" she asked.

Malfoy. He grabbed her wand swiftly with one hand and threw it down on the floor.

"Dumbledore needs the new Heads to go to their compartment to speak with him." he said.

"Don't worry Ginny, its okay" she said

Malfoy looked behind Ginny and noticed Hermione sitting on the seat. He raised one eyebrow at

her appearance and swiftly turned and walked out of the compartment.

"What an annoying git" Ginny said angrily picking her wand off the floor.

"Please! I have to share a common room with him! I'll talk to ya later Ginny" She waved at her and

then walked out the door down the hall.

Hermione walked into the large room. The walls were lined with bookshelves, there was a blazing

fireplace and a minibar in the corner. A large couch was in the middle of the room and a small table sitting

in front. Two small chairs sat next to the large couch. Sitting in one of the smaller chairs, was sitting her

oldest arch enemy.

"Hello Malfoy" Hermione drawled. Malfoy looked up and sneered, and then returned to his book.

"Where is Dumbledore?" she asked "I thought he needed to speak with us". Malfoy didn't respond

but just pointed to a large mirror next to the fireplace.

Hermione walked over and looked in it. Noticing her lips were a little lacking in sheen, she grabbed

her clear lip gloss out of her bag and proceeded to put some on. As she bent down to put it back into her

bag, she didn't even realize Malfoy had walked up behind her. She stood up quickly and saw Malfoy

standing behind her in the mirror. She jumped sharply and almost toppled over with her high shoes. She

regained her composure and looked into the mirror again.

"Can I help you?" she asked looking at him through the mirror.

"Shut up mudblood" he said "He's almost here"

Dumbledore's body immediately filled the mirror.

"Hello Hermione and Draco" he began "Its a new year and an exciting time to be alive! I assume

you both got your information?"

Draco and Hermione both nodded

"Good good!" Dumbledore said smiling "Now, everything has been taken care of pertaining to your

rooms. When you arrive at Hogwart's you will need to hand out passwords to the prefects. Help them with

the first years to their appropriate rooms if the prefects need help that is. Help each other if the other one

asks and be nice. Look for me after the feast and I will show you to your rooms. Have a nice ride and a

good day!" he immediately vanished.

"Stupid old git" Malfoy muttered.

"Oh shove it Malfoy!" Hermione said angrily "Do you always have to an insensitive jackass?" she

asked while his back was to her.

He swiftly turned around and faced her "Insensitive jackass?" he grabbed her wrists and

pushed them into the bookcase above her head. He leaned in close to her face. She could feel his warm

breath on her neck as he whispered into her ear "You got that right doll". He let go of her hands and

grabbed her shoulders and threw her to the floor. As Hermione hit the floor, she threw her leg out and hit

the back of his legs, causing him to fall to the floor. She jumped up and grabbed his wrists putting them over

his head like he did to her. She straddled his torso and looked into his cold glaring eyes.

"So am I" she said glaring back.

"Let me up" Malfoy said angrily.

"When you stop kicking" Hermione spat back. He immediately stopped and laid perfectly still.

Hermione got up off him and grabbed her bag and walked out of the room. She looked back in right as she

walked out the door and saw Malfoy still sitting on the floor leaning on one knee. They both said at the same

time:

"Jackass"

"Bitch"
