FLASHBACK: What happened next made Hermione's heart skip a beat. Blaise followed Draco's eyes to where he met Hermione's. All three of them sat there for a minute before Blaise whispered something into Draco's ear and his eyes went wide and he started laughing hysterically.
END FLASHBACK!
NOW:
Draco looked up from his plate to catch Hermione's gaze. He saw Blaise follow his gaze so now they were both looking at Hermione. They sat there for a minute until Blaise leaned over and whispered into his ear.
"What do you imagine it's like to screw a Gryffindor like Granger?" Draco's eyes widened and he started to laugh.
"I don't suppose I've ever thought about it. Nor do I want to." Draco said, his laughter dying down.
"Well she isn't that bad looking. Neither is that Weaselette. You know the red head sixth-year. Weasley's sister. Think how much that would piss off Weasley." Blaise smirked looking directly at Ginny who was laughing at something Harry said.
"You're serious? I doubt you even have a shot to talk to her. Look how she clings to scar-face there. Although you're right about it pissing off Weasley, it would piss off a lot of Slytherin girls." Draco smirked.
"She broke it off with Potter two months ago. I think that's enough time to move on…don't you." Blaise cocked his head to the side admiring Ginny.
"You are one odd bloke. You know that?" Draco asked.
"Yeah. What's a guy to do?" Blaise looked back down at his food, stirring it around with his fork.

Hermione looked away quickly. Harry was telling a joke that he had heard while in Muggle London.
"So there are 3 tomatoes. A mother, father and a baby." He started.
"Tomatoes don't reproduce like that." Ron said, not getting it.
"It's a joke Ron…ok so they are going for a hike in the woods and the baby starts to fall behind." He continues. Everyone is casually listening except Ron who is listening intently for the joke part.
"So the dad tomato runs and squashes the baby and says KETCHUP!" Harry starts to laugh. Hermione looks at him.
"That's barbaric. How could a dad kill his son?" She says. Ginny laughs at how stupid the joke was and after about 5 minutes Ron starts to laugh.
"What are you laughing at Ron?" Harry asks.
"I get it!" Ron says. The whole group of people around his start to laugh. "What? What's so funny?" Ron asked confused.
"Nothing Ronald." Hermione said through muffled giggles.

Dumbledore stood after dinner to make an announcement. He came to the front and held his hand up for everyone to be quite. Almost like magic everyone was silent, not even a peep was heard. He smiled and brought his hands down.
"Now for the first years that don't know, Classes will start in 3 day. That gives you enough time to settle in and find all of your classes. I would also like to congratulate Hermione Granger and Draco Malfoy on becoming our Head Boy and Head Girl this year. If they would see me when everyone leaves, then that will be all. Enjoy your weekend." Dumbledore flicked his hand and the doors to the Great Hall opened to release everyone.
"First years follow me!" Ginny called to the small Gryffindors looking around aimlessly. She had made prefect that year, along with Blaise Zabini, Cho Chang, and a small girl from Huffelpuf names Emily Veene.
Hermione said goodbye to her friends and moved against the current of students toward Dumbledore. She arrived to see Malfoy and Dumbledore already waiting, Malfoy with a foul look on his face.
"There you are Ms. Granger. Now I would like to congratulate you on your achievements and show you to your dorm." Dumbledore smiled at the two.
"Wait…Dorm? As in live together?" Draco asked.
"Like Hell we will!" Hermione said not realizing she said it out loud until she was done. Malfoy looked at her in amazement while Dumbledore just smiled wider.
"Im hoping to see some…Unity… between you two as to set a trend for the other student." He said with that glint in his eye.
"How can you expect me to live with that?" Draco gave Hermione a look of disgust.
"You live with me! You're not the one who could be killed in your sleep!" Hermione yelled at him.
"I would touch a filthy hair on your head in fear of SOILING MY SKIN!" Draco yelled back.
"YOU'RE SO FULL OF YOURSELF!" Hermione yelled.
"I ONLY SPEAK THE TRUTH, OH QUEEN OF THE DIRTY!" Draco yelled back.
"JACKASS!" Hermione's hand flew up so fast and hit Draco across the face.
"WHY YOU LITTLE…" Draco's hand flew up but was stopped by Dumbledore grip on his wrist. Half the student body had stopped to watch the fight on their way out the Great Hall doors.
"GO ON!" Dumbledore spoke loudly, not in an angry matter, just loud so everyone could hear him. All the students scattered out of the room. Draco was struggling so hard to break free he was dropped to his knees when Dumbledore did let him go.
"Im sorry for acting out like that Professor." Hermione smiled.
"Its quite all right Ms. Granger, but let's make sure it doesn't happen that often."
"You'll pay Mudblood." Draco mumbled getting off the floor and dusting himself off.
"Now unless you want to sleep in here, let me show you to your dorm." Dumbledore's eye's twinkled as he walked to the door. Hermione rolled her eyes at Malfoy before catching up to Dumbledore. They began to chat about school as Draco stalked behind them.

The portrait was of a woman with brown wavy hair and emerald green eyes. She was a very petite woman also. When the three arrived she had been reading a book in a chair next to her fire. As she saw them approach her eye's lit up and she stood, smoothing out her dress.
"Oh! Hello Everyone, Professor Dumbledore. And you must be Hermione, look how big you are. I mean how old you've gotten… I mean…You're very beautiful…And you must be Draco. Well…Narcissa did a very good job, now didn't she?" The woman said, he eyes kept going back to Hermione.
"Hermione, Draco…this is Blaire. She will be your portrait for the rest of the year. You two should get to know her better. You might find out some interesting facts." Dumbledore's eye twinkled. "You password is Discovery. Have a nice evening." He said before heading back down the hallway.
"How about you two go get settled. You can talk to me anytime, Hermione…and you too Draco." Blaire said before opening, revealing their dorm.
Hermione smiled at Blaire and nodded before going in. Draco raised an eyebrow at her before following Hermione. There was a roaring fireplace with black, red, and green couches around it. There were bookshelves on one wall and a gorgeous staircase on the other.
The staircase wrapped around onto a balcony with three doors on it. The first, Hermione opened to find an emerald green room, which she had guessed to be Draco's. The next was an enormous bathroom with a hot tub smack dab in the middle of it. And the last room looked similar to the first one except instead of green it was Red and Gold.
Hermione head a door close and looked on the balcony to find Draco's door closed and him no where in sight. She rolled her eyes before going into her room and unpacking her stuff. She set the baby basket in a corner with a new blanket in it for Crookshanks. She took the original blanket and stuck it on her pillows. She put the note on her bedside table.
She took Crookshanks out of his kennel and put him in the basket. Spinning a little he laid down. Hermione smiled at him before lying on her bed to take a nap.

Draco closed the door to his room and took a good look around. His queen sized bed was covered in green silk. He smirked at this; it was just like his room at home. His trunk sat at the bottom of his bed. Opening it he picked a book out of it. Shoving it under his mattress he walks to a glass door overlooking the grounds. He walks out onto the outside balcony and takes a look around. Look over he saw that it attached to another room. He walked over to the door and peered into the room. It was almost identical to his, except red and gold.
There Hermione lay on the bed asleep. He didn't know what he was doing at her window but somehow… seeing her, this peaceful, made him smile. Realizing that he was smiling he shook his head and went back to his room. He opened another door that lead to the bathroom. He smiled at the hot tub and decided that he needed to relax for a bit.
Going back to his room he changed into a pair of green swim trunks and went back to the hot tub. He turned it on and got in. It was only then did he scan the room. The toilet was hidden behind a wall; he supposed this was for when people were in the hot tub. The shower was on the far wall next to the double sinks.
He let his head rest on a bath pillow and he closed his eyes. Visions of him as a boy flashed in his head. Then a picture of his mother, but much younger, and Blaire, from the portrait, flashed in his mind. They were laughing and having fun. Both of them had a pregnant belly. He didn't know where the picture came from but he loved to see his mother so happy. After sitting in the hot tub for half an hour Draco got out, dried himself off and went down to the common room.
He sat by the fire for a bit before deciding that he was going to go and talk to Blaire. Walking out of the portrait he turned to see her reading the same book she was before. Her eyes lit up and she put down the book.
"What can I do for you Draco?" She asked.
"How do you know my mother?" He asked sitting against a wall.
"Oh… well your mother and I were best friends. We grew up together, got married at almost the same time and had our children at about the same time." She said smiling.
"Wait! You're Blaire Zabini, Blaise's mother? You're the one my mother talks to?" Draco asks.
"Yes…my son is Blaise but im not sure I know what your talking about when you say your mother talks to me?" Blaire looked happy at the mention of Blaise but also confused.
"My mother, when she cries. She looks up and talks to you." Draco said shyly.
"Oh Narcissa!" Blaire said out loud. "Your mother was the only one with me when I died. I had just had Blaise and… well..." Blaire stopped looking at Draco who was now listening closely.
"Blaise's twin?" Draco asked.
"Yes. And I died right there in a little muggle cottage. Your mother was like my sister. We were always there for each other…" Blaire started to cry.
"Lucius and Michael died. Granger killed them both during the war. My mother has been happier since then. But I think she would be even happier if she got to see you. Would you like me to ask Dumbledore if she can come here?" Draco asked.
Blaire looked up at the boy in front of her. This was Cissa's son, he was the boy destined for her daughter. The daughter who had grown into a beautiful woman, and the brightest witch of her time. Draco was perfect for her, if they just didn't fight.
"Oh Draco! You are just like your mother. That would be wonderful…and Draco…Does Blaise ever come to see you?" Blaire asked.
"He should be coming up soon." Draco smiled and walked into the common room. He took out two pieces of parchment, one he sent to Blaise telling him to come to his dorm. On the other he wrote this:
Mother,
You always use to tell me stories of Blaire Zabini, and I know you talk to her when you're alone. But today I had the odd fate to meet her. Granger and I got stuck in the heads dorm together and Mrs. Zabini is our portrait. I know it would make both of you happy if you came to visit her. I love you mom.
Draco.
He folded his letter and walked out of the portrait on his way to Dumbledore's. He saw Blaise heading to his room as he walked. Telling him of his mother Blaise ran to her and Draco went to visit Dumbledore.
