Hermione woke up the next morning confused as to where she was. Why was she not in her common room, Who was that snoring across the room? Why was she in s room full of boys? It took her a few minutes to realise where she was and as soon as she did she put her head in her hands and groaned.

Blaise sat up as he heard her.

"What's wrong Granger? Sick of being in a boys body already?"

That bought the reality of the situation home She really was not imagining all this. It really was happening and she had to deal with it and pull through. She was really hoping it was just a dream.

She looked across the room and saw Nott snoring loudly on the bed.

"I see he is back already. They didn't hold him long."

"Yeah he got back after a few hours of being in there. Still had the effects of looking like an ugly git thou, nothing will change that."

Hermione had to laugh at that. She almost couldn't help herself.

"I'm going to jump in the shower. I hope you have decent stalls in here." she said with a questioning look on Draco's face.

It was Blaise's turn to laugh.

"They are fine but I would take that look off your face, it's not exactly befitting for a Malfoy."

She just smiled and walked into the bathroom. She was surprised by how tidy it was, this was something she had never expected, being a lot of boys that is.

She stripped down and got in the shower. As she washed and got ready to get out, she was surprised when she saw how muscled and toned he was. She thought it was obvious that he took care of himself but did not expect to see that.

She finished washing up and got out of the shower and wrapped a towel around herself. When she walked back into her room she was surprised to see Nott awake and looking slightly annoyed.

"What's got you so upset Nott? Not your usual there now is it." she sneered in his direction

"Next time you do that again Granger. I will make you pay for that." He scolded walked up to her menacingly.

"I thought you would have realised after that attempt, Nott, that you can not beat me in this, I will always be able to beat you and the more you try, the nastier it will get in retaliation, so if I was you, I would quit will your behind and not try to out do a Malfoy."

"I wouldn't try and outdo a Malfoy, But you are not a Malfoy, your just a jumped up mudblood with nothing to her name." Nott spat.

She lunged at him and grabbed him by the collar.

"You say that one more time and you will pay and it will be a lot worse then last time." She sneered.

He backed off a bit.

"You will pay for that Granger."

"Yeah? Try me Nott and I will make sure you are out for a week."

Nott looked down realising not to push her much further as she does carry out her threats as he found out last night.

He walked out of the dorm room and headed for the great hall for breakfast.

"What's got Nott in such a foul mood now?" Pansy asked as she waltzed in and gave Braise a big hug.

"Hermione just did a number on Nott again." Blaise said with a grin.

"Nice going Granger. Even Malfoy is known to go softer on his friends sometimes. You would have made a very good Slytherin if you got sorted here." Pansy said.

"Alright well if you two are finished, how about we go down to breakfast?" She asked before walking out.

Malfoy sat up and looked around then remembered what had happened. He walked around his private courters before deciding to go for a shower. He did not take not till he got out and went back into the common room where he saw Potter, Weasley and the Weaslette sitting there waiting to escort him to breakfast.

"How the hell she even got this hair looking even half decent I will never know." He sneered.

"I'll do it." Ginny said, rolling her eyes as she jumped up and went behind him and started sorting out her hair.

"Well I'm not surprised you can do it Weaslette when you manage to do your own to a decent standard." He mumbled.

She paused what she was doing for a second. "Do you want my help or not?" She asked.

When he did not say anything she continued sorting out her hair.

Once Ginny finished Malfoy started walking off.

"Not even a thank you then? If your going to be that ungrateful you can do it yourself next time."

"Malfoys don't say thanks" He sneered.

"Maybe not, but right now you have to play the part of Hermione so you better start acting the part unless you want everyone to find out and there being a fight on your hands. You against Gryffindor house."

"Fine, I'll play your stupid games but once I'm back in my own house, I will get you for this." He snarled

"I wouldn't expect anything more from you Malfoy." Potter said.

"Now that we have the pleasantries out of the way, I'm going for breakfast." Malfoy said and stormed out, followed by Potter and the Weasels.

When they got down to the first floor they saw Theo Nott storming past them muttering about mudbloods sticking their noses in where they don't belong.

Harry, Ron, Ginny and Malfoy stopped in surprise at hearing that. Then almost right behind Theo they saw Blaise, Pansy and Hermione walking out of the dungeons.

"What the fuck is going on?" Malfoy asked Zabini and Parkinson.

"I have no idea what you mean." Said Parkinson.

"Don't piss me off and tell me exactly what's going on. First Nott past looking like he was ready to kill and you walking around with such smug looks. I expect that from you two but not from little goody-two-shoes Granger there." Malfoy said.

Zabini just smirked. "Granger would have made an excellent Slytherin, one that puts you to shame too Malfoy. She definitely made the rest of the Slytherins be more careful around her. And Theo was used as an example."

"Now that is something I would have loved to see." Smirked Malfoy.

"You have a lot more to live up to when you get back Draco." Pansy stated before continuing to the great hall for breakfast.

They all went and sat down in their house groups and Ginny started talking non stop, making everyone just zone out and eat their food. Harry and Ron could not help looking over to the Slytherin table to see how relaxed everyone looked including Hermione in Malfoys body chatting to Parkinson and Zabini as if she had been friends with them her whole life.

Breakfast seemed to finish to quickly for Harry and Ron as they saw Hermione get up with both Blaise and Pansy to go to their next class. They followed suit just after them.

By the time they got to Potions Blaise and Hermione were already sitting at there the Slytherin table where Zabini and Malfoy usually sit. Harry and Ron hated not being able to sit with their friend and being stuck sitting with Malfoy for potions. They sat there listening to Slughorn about making the Wit-Sharpening Potion. They went to the supply cupboard to get their potion ingredients.

Malfoy banged into Granger on the way past.

"Watch where your going Malfoy." She said quietly to him.

"You need to watch yourself Granger." Malfoy sneered.

They glared at each other for a few minutes before Potter pulled Malfoy back not wanting everyone to realise what was going on. He knew the uproar it would cause if they did.

But Malfoy was not going to have that he pulled out Granger's wand and pointed it straight at her.

"Fight like a man you think you are."

"I wouldn't waste my breath on someone like you." She sneered before walking off.

She walked and sat back down with her ingredients before he could say anything else.

Zabini looked at her in disbelief.

"Why did you pass that up, Malfoy would have taken up that challenge. Don't make yourself look weak. You won't last long if that gets around." He said.

Everyone started on their potions and handed them up to Slughorn once they finished.

Class finished and they walked out for their next lesson.

Malfoy walked past Hermione quite quickly.

"You can't back away that easily. I'll get you later." He sneered.

They had charms next and she knew he would keep to his word.

They went into charms and Professor Flitwick had not arrived in class yet. Malfoy saw this as the perfect oportunity to catch her off guard. He shot a spell just above her head.

"Well now Granger, that isn't a very Gryffindor thing to do now is it?" She sneered before pulling out his wand as well.

She shot a small stinging spell right at his wand arm. He dropped her wand before being able to do anything else.

Flitwick arrived just then and started the lesson. He ws not surprised to feel all the tension in the class. It was expected when you had both Hermione and Malfoy in the same class.

It was not long before all their morning classes were finished and they were back in the great hall for lunch.

What happened next was not what they expected.
