Love or Revenge?
Chapter one: One Hell of a Year Ahead
Hermione's point of view:
"Oh look if it isn't the mud blood. Where are your friends? Did they finally realize that you really are ugly and that they were both pure blooded, as much as I hate to admit that, and leave you alone to rot like you deserve?" He sneered at me. "DRACO MALFOY I SWEAR TO GOD IF YOU DO NOT SHUT THE FUCK UP RIGHT NO SO HELP ME!" I shrieked at him. "I am so SICK and TIRED of you insulting me! Enough is enough! It's been seven fucking years! GET OVER IT! Is my fault your family is heartless and you're unwelcome here at Hogwarts because you led the Death Eaters into the school? Is my fault you were a coward and instead of fighting against him you sided WITH him? NO IT ISN'T SO STOP TREATING ME LIKE IT IS!" I finished my rant walked back to my bedroom and slammed the door behind me. "DON'T YOU DARE INSULT MY FAMILY AGAIN YOU FILTHY LITTLE MUD BLOOD, YOU HEAR ME?" He screamed back at me through my door. "Ugh, does this son of a hippogriff ever shut up? Hmmm…. Maybe I should ask him. Yes, yes that is what I shall do." I opened my door and stuck my head out and yell, "HEY YOU SON OF HIPPOGRIFF DO YOU EVER SHUT UP?" I stood there for five minutes and when I got no answer I closed my door and went to sleep. "Oh yes first night back for seventh year and Head Girl is going just swimmingly. I mean yeah I knew that this wasn't going to be easy to get along with Draco Malfoy I mean he is Draco Malfoy for God's sake but the least we could do is be civil so we aren't at each others throats all the time. Speaking of throats mine is killing me now thanks to a certain ferret I like to call Draco Malfoy. I hate Malfoy, I hate sharing a dorm with him, and most of all I hate knowing that there is nothing I can to about sharing a dorm with him for the rest of the year." I sighed at I closed my diary, turned off my lamp, and crawled into my bed and went to sleep.
Draco's point of view:
"God Hermione is going to be the death of me I swear!" I complained to Blaise, my best friend and now roommate. "Whoa, whoa, whoa, what is her name?" He asked glaring at me as if I just called his mother hot. "Granger? Mud blood? Filthy little mud blood? What? I know her name is all of the above." I said hoping he would let it go. I have to admit she really is quite attractive. Her hair doesn't look like she stuck her finger in an electrical socket and WHAT AM I SAYING! THIS IS HERMIONE MUDBLOOD GRANGER! "But you called her the "H" word!" He said hoping I would catch on. "What? I DID NOT! I DID NOT CALL HER HERMIONE! AH SHIT I DID JUST THEN BUT NOT BEFORE!" I said defensively making me look even guiltier. "Calm down, oh and by the way yes you did. Night!" He said quickly while scrambling to get into his bed. "Oh no you don't! She insulted my family, now she pays."
"What do you have in mind my companion of evil and sin?" He said. "Let us start with… A bunny." I said thoughtfully. "A bunny?" He half screamed. He looked at me with concern thinking that I had officially lost it. "Yes a bunny. We shall her turn into one." "Ahhh… but how?" "I cannot believe I am going to say this but we need some assistance. And fast. We shall call those blood trader twins. They can help us I think."
"NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NOT THEM!" "Yes THEM! We NEED them. They are the only one's that can REALLY help us." "FINE!" "Night!" I crawled into my bed turned off my lamp and smirked to myself, "You're in for one hell of a year Granger!" And with that I fell into a deep sleep. "Okay Weasley's I understand that we don't get along but I'm a sucker for a dramatic exit and you two sure made one hell of an exit in fifth year, so will you PLEASE help me?" I hated the fact that I was begging to two of the WEASLEYS! God my life really is screwed up. Fred and George were mumbling to each other and every so often I could pick out things like: "see him begging?" "Probably lying" "could hurt someone" "used for revenge" Finally they turned and looked at Draco and said together, "Why should we help a prat like you Malfoy?" "I told you: I admire the dramatic exit you two left in my fifth year." "Yes but you see Malfoy we don't believe you." Fred (?) said. I swear I can't tell them apart. "Okay you want the truth? I'll tell you the truth. The truth is that I'm tired of people –namely Granger- giving me shit. She just acts sooooo smart and sooooo perfect and it is sooooo annoying. So will you help me?" I pleaded once more. "Dummy say so." "So?" "HA! DUMMY!" "Really George? With every brilliant thing you have come up with you take a very serious moment and pull something out of your arse?" George just grinned ear to ear. "Fine we will help you…" Fred said finally.
Hermione's point of view:
"Oh my God, Ginny I swear your hair got more towards a brown over the summer what did you do to it?" My best girlfriend just laughed and said, "I have done nothing to my hair I swear to Merlin. Besides Mione you are so blonde anymore you yourself. You more light brown too. OH MY GOD WE ARE GOING CHOCOLATE! YAY!" Ginny exclaimed while she just grinned ear to ear for no reason. "Gin have you had any caffeine yet today?" "Nope!" "She said simply as she bounce up and down on my bed. "Well come on then." It's scary; Ginny is bouncing off the walls hyper until she has coffee at breakfast, after that she's a normal human being. Unless it's a Monday…. Note to anyone who is listening and cares: NEVER and I repeat NEVER speak to Ginny on a Monday until she has her caffeine. She will bite your head off. Anyway moving on, we were just about to leave my room in the heads' dorm when I heard a small tap tap tap on my window. I let the owl in; it flew in my room, dropped my letter, and flew out again in one graceful movement. The envelope to my letter said:
Miss Hermione Jean Granger
North Side of the Heads' Dorm
Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry
Curiosity got the best of me. I wanted to know what the letter was about and how did this person know I was on the north side of the dorm. The inside read:
My Dearest Hermione,
I am so pleased to tell you that my best friend, whom I haven't seen in AGES-Amethyst-, stopped by yesterday with Brian right after we got home from bringing you to the train station. Do you remember Brian? He was like your boyfriend when you were four. It was sooooo cute! Anyway Amy and I got talking and well Hermione…. YOU'RE GETTING MARRIED! Isn't it exciting? OH I will have to get planning if this is going to happen on time! You will be getting married two weeks after home from that horrid school that teaches you a bunch of shit that isn't real. I just cannot believe you're going to be a Hollow! AHH!
Hugs, Kisses, and Love,
Mum
And then… I felt like I was going to puke.
Ginny's point of view:
I watched as Hermione read the letter. I watch her facial expression change from happy to panic stricken to disgust to horror. As soon her face went sheet white I started pulling her towards the lavatory because with as fast as her face lost colour there was no way she wasn't going to be sick. No sooner did we get to the bathroom did Hermione collapse in front of the toilet and loose everything she ate the day before. "Are you okay? Do you want talk about it?" I asked her. "Yeah I'm alright but I can't talk about it." She picked up the letter and handed it to me. I read the letter four times and the lines: 'Anyway Amy and I got talking and well Hermione…. YOU'RE GETTING MARRIED! You will be getting married two weeks after you get home from that horrid school that teaches you a bunch of shit that isn't real.' Sixteen times.
Hermione's point of view:
"MARRIED?" "Mhm..." was all I said. "HORRID SCHOOL THAT TEACHES US SHIT THAT ISN'T EVEN REAL? IS SHE MAD?" "Ginny… I DON'T WANT TO MARRY HIM HE'S A BIGGER ARSE THAN MALFOY!" "Hermione is that even possible?" "HEYYYY!" We hear Malfoy whine from down the hall. Ginny and I rolled our eyes and went back to our room. It was great that Dumbledore was letting the Heads' have roommates this year. Naturally I chose Ginny and Precious Pureblood as I like to call him picked none other than Blaise Zabini.
