I don't own any of these characters J.K. Rowling does.

This chapter will be longer then the first so I hope you enjoy it. Ohh and I will be switching P.O.V. from third person to Draco's and Hermione's P.O.V.


Hermione's P.O.V.

In the corner of Hermione's eyes she saw someone quickly turn around. When she looked in the direction of the person she saw Draco Malfoy peeking at her from over his shoulder. She gave him a nervous smile hoping he wouldn't turn around and call her a "filthy mud-blood and tell her to stop staring at him. But to her surprise he smiled back at her. When her got in line behind him he turned around to face her.

"Hello, Malfoy.: Hermione greeted him.

"Granger." he said with a nod.

Hermione thought that would be it and that he would turn back around, but he didn't.

"So you got head-girl this year, I bet your happy about that." he said in a voice only she could hear. Not that Harry or Ron were paying them any attention.

"Yeah, I am. I have always wanted to be head-girl since our first year at Hogwarts." Hermione said smiling to herself.


Both P.O.V. for the moment

Draco loved when she smiled and was sorry that he had been so mean to her over the years, but he just didn't want her to know that then. But when he saw her with the Wesley boy last year he thought his chances were gone. Until he saw that they weren't talking or looking at each other today, he hoped his chances were still there after all.

"Well, I'm happy I am rooming with someone smart this year." he said still in a whisper.

Hermione looked confused, so Draco pointed to the head-boy pin on his shirt. Hermione couldn't believe what she was seeing or hearing. Draco was head-boy? But that meant she had to share a common room with him.


Draco's P.O.V.

I saw the look on her face, and it was the one of shock.

"Really?" she asked me.

"Yeah." was all I could manage to get out.

"So, we share a common room?" she asked.

"Yeah, um about everything that has happened over the years could we talk about that?" I asked with a frown.

"Um, Yeah. I guess we can in the head perfect cabin." she nodded.

"Great!" I said and turned to walk onto the train.


Hermione P.O.V.

He seemed so happy to talk to me, or was he just happy that I agreed to talk about what happened in the past? I'm not really sure but I am sure that I wont be telling Harry, Ginny, or Ron that the will be Head-boy this year is Draco Malfoy just yet. But I will go straight to the cabin. I want to hear what he has to say.

"Hey Harry, I'm going to go straight to the head-perfect cabin. Okay?" I asked him after I tapped him on the shoulder.

Harry nodded and I went to the front of the train only to find that Malfoy beat me there.

"Hello, again." he greeted me with a smile.

"Hello."

"So about everything I said to you in the past. I would like it best if we just forgot about it and start anew."

"As in act like this is the first time we have ever talked to each other?"

"Yes."

"And no comments about me being a mud-blood?"

He frowned when I said it.

"About that. I'm sorry. I now realize that what I said and did to you and your friends was wrong." he said then paused. "What I did to you over the years was wrong."

Draco stood up and walked over to me and grabbed my stuff and put it away. When he was done he came back over to me and took my hand and lead me to a seat before he continued.

"When my dad made me get the dark mark, I didn't want to, I was scared. I wanted to run to get some help. But if I ran away or told anyone what was happening "he" said he would kill me and my family, and I didn't want anything to happen to my mother. And when he told me to kill Dumbledore, I panicked I wanted to run away and never return to Hogwarts ever again, and then maybe he would have still been alive. But when my mother told me that she and Snape made an unbreakable promise, saying that if I failed to Kill Dumbledore that Snape had to do it himself. So I knew I couldn't run away, so that whole year I was in consent fear of my life and I didn't know if he killed my parents while I was away at Hogwarts for taking to long to kill Dumbledore."

When he paused again I looked up at him and saw tears falling from his eyes. I knew then that he was being serious while telling me this, so I took his hand and started to pat it.

"It's okay, Malfoy. It's going to be alright the dark lord is gone. He will never hurt you or anyone else ever again." I told him.

"My dad should be sentenced to the dementors kiss. He was the dark lords biggest follower. He would do anything for him."

Your dad is locked away, the Ministry has him now and they should be sentencing him soon. Now we should change into our school robes, okay? The Professor McGonagall wanted to speak with us."

"Alright."

He stood up and walked into the changing room to change, but as soon as he went in he came out. But without a shirt on. I tried to look away, but I couldn't. His arms were muscular and big, he was well built with a six pack, and under his belly button was a thin line of hair that disappeared at the waist line of his pants. He cleared his throat and when I looked up at his face he had on his famous smirk, and I couldn't help but blush seeing as I was caught staring at him.

"Like what you see?" he asked.

"You're very well built. You can't see that when you wear clothes." I said then turned redder when I realized what I said.

"Well, thanks." was all he said before taking his robes out of his trunk and walked back into the changing room.


Draco's P.O.V.

When I walked out of the changing room she couldn't keep her eyes off me. She looked like she was taking me all in, and then her eyes got lower. I knew she believed me and I was glad. I was glad we could start anew and she let me tell her everything and she comforted me. I wasn't just glad. I was glad when she agreed to talk to me. I was glad she let me take her small delicate hand in mine. I was glad when she took my hand and soothed me. But having her look at me like I was someone she could get along with I was beyond glad, I was ecstatic.

Right now I am waiting for her to change to we can walk down to Professor McGonagall's cabin together. We were only somewhat into our ride to Hogwarts, but we have to talk about us two being head-boy and head-girl and what not.

When Hermione came out I took her hand and walked out of the cabin to a cabin a couple feet from ours that read Headmistress in it, and knocked.

"Come in." came a voice from inside.

I let got of her hand and opened the door and let her in first, then walked in myself, closing the door behind me.

"Ah, Hermione, Draco. Glad you could make it."


Hermione P.O.V.

Professor McGonagall talked to use for a good hour before we left to go back to the head perfect cabin. But before we left she told us to meet her after dinner and she would show us where our head-perfect common room would be because apparently they moved it after the battle last year had destroyed most of the school. Draco looked devastated, but I patted his knee before standing up to leave.

By the time we walked out of the Professor's door Draco grabbed my hand again. I didn't drop it because like last time it felt nice to have his hand in mine. It felt like if I needed a shoulder to cry on he would let me cry on his without a second thought.

When we got back to our cabin we sat down and he asked me the question I had been avoiding all summer.

"So you and the Wesley boy aren't talking right now?"

"No, after the war he broke up with me and started to date Lavender Brown instead. But it is okay because I realized after he dumped me for her that I only loved him like a brother."

"And Wesley? How does he feel?"

"I don't know. Ever since then he hasn't talked to me and he has been avoiding me."

"Well when him and Potter find out that we will be sharing a common room, I'm sure Wesley will talk to you."

"Yeah, more like the bloody git would start yelling at me asking why I didn't tell him or Harry this." I surprised myself by laughing but got a smile from Malfoy in return.

"Yeah, might happen at supper tonight."

"Or tomorrow at breakfast."

"Yeah, well we should get some rest."

"Okay."

I got up and walked over to the bed . When I sat down Malfoy talked to me again.

"Do you mind if I lay with you? I tend to get nightmares now-a-days."

"Um, yeah I don't mind. I get them too sometimes."


Draco's P.O.V.

I din't think she would let me lay with her but she did. Right when she layed down she fell asleep like she had been up all night and wanting to sleep all day. She looks so peaceful when she is sleeping like nothing ever happened for seven years. Like me and her just started talking today and not seven years ago by me calling her a 'mud-blood'. But now I know it was wrong to call her that because she fought on the right side of the war and I didn't tell the end.

When I started to drift off to sleep i dreamt of what happened in the war.

A masked Death Eater was about to kill me but I was pleading with him trying to let him see that it was me and that I was on his side. But I was only saying it because I didn't want to die then and I had to make the enemy believe that I was still on their side. But then all of a sudden he dropped to the ground. I looked around to see who did it but I din't see anyone. When something hit me and made me fall. I knew I was bleeding and I would soon black out. But what caught my eye was wavy brown hair appearing out of nowhere. When I looked at the person next to her because I couldn't look at the sad look in her eyes I saw Wesley and h told me "That is the second time we saved your life tonight, you bloody two-faced bastard!" But he didn't know that I was just trying to survive the battle and not get killed so I could run to Professor McGonagall and ask her for forgiveness and to see if she could take the bloody Dark Mark off my left arm.

I woke to Hermione shaking me telling me that I was tossing and turning in my sleep and that I woke her by doing so. But I guess it was a good thing because we were getting closer to the castle and we both needed to be up to help all of the first years find their way to the boats.


Hermione's P.O.V.

While helping the first years find their way to the boats I couldn't help but think of what could have made Malfoy toss and turn that much in his sleep. Harry saw me with him getting off the train and he didn't look happy that I was also talking to him. So I guess he was right and when I sit down to eat supper tonight I would be getting yelled at by my friends and I would have to tell them everything. I knew I had to tell them sooner or later but I had been hoping on the later not the sooner.


Draco's P.O.V.

Hermione looked worried. I know because she almost always was for the past seven years.

"Hermione?" I asked as we sat in the carriage on the way to the castle.

"Yes, Malfoy?"

"You can call me Draco you know? And are you okay?"

"No, I want to know what you were dreaming about back on the train, and you where right, I will be getting an ear full from Harry and Ron when we sit at our tables tonight." she sighed on the last bit of what she said.

"What I was dreaming?"

"Yes Draco, what were you dreaming?"

Just by her saying my first name thrilled me.

"I was dreaming about what happened during the war."

"Do you mind telling me it?"

"Later in the common room, okay?"

"Okay." she said with a smile, but it didn't reach her eyes.

By then we were at the castle and saw that the first years were about to go in but were waiting for both Hermione and me. So we ran up to them and lead them in.


Hermione P.O.V.

By the time that Professor McGonagall announced that Draco and I were this years Head Perfects and sorted the first years into their houses, I was ready to eat then go back to bed. So I went to sit with my friends at the Gryffindor table. When I sat down I was ready for what they would throw at me.

"Hermione, why didn't you tell us that Draco was head perfect with you?" Ron asked his face as red as his hair.

"Because Ronald, for one you haven't talked to me all summer and two Professor McGonagall only told me in the letter that said I would be head-girl this year was that there would be a head-girl from Gryffindor (me) and a head- boy from Slytherin this year and that we would be sharing a common room." I slapped my hand over my mouth at the last part that slipped out.

"Do what!" Ron, Harry, and Ginny gasped at her.

"Your sharing a common room with Malfoy?" Ron said.

"And you wont be at Gryffindor Tower this year?" Harry asked.

"Yes Ron and I'm sorry Harry, Ginny, but Draco has changed and he needs all the best influences he can get if he wants to stay that way and he does." I told them.

"How do you know?" Harry asked.

"And when did you two get on first name bases?" Ron asked.

"I know because we had a long talk on the train and he said he was and he didn't once call me a 'mud-blood' the whole way but he did call me my real name. HE also told me I could start calling him Draco." I said starting to get mad. "And Ron why do you care? You are not my boyfriend you are more like a brother to me now."

Draco's P.O.V.

I saw that Hermione was getting madder and madder by their questions and students where starting to leave the Great Hall and the first years where getting ready to leave too. So I stood up and walked over to her table.

"Ready to go, Hermione?" I asked her.

I got a few evil looks at people from the Gryffindor table but I was only looking at Hermione.

"Yeah, I'm ready. Let's go." she stood up and grabbed my hand. She didn't let go even when we were standing next to the headmistress waiting for her to finish talking to the new D.A.D.A. teacher.

When Professor McGonagall was done talking and turned around to face us she asked if we were ready to go and then we left and started walking up the main staircase.


Yay! My first post of the New Year lol and it was longer then the first do you know how many chapters i have so far 5. 5 chapters and it is hard cause how do you write Draco's P.O.V. without doing the Draco from 'A Very Potter Musical' P.O.V. cause then i would have him in wizard diapers and rolling around on the floor i mean i might just put in my favorite Draco/Ron/Harry line from 'A Very Potter Musical' just to see how many people catch it. I would just love to see how many starkid fans there are here.
