BTW- The only reason I can put up chapters so quickly is because I am on Christmas break. When I go back to school, I will probably only be able to update on Fri, Sat and Sun. I am sorry about that but this is my senior year and my last chance to do my best. I hope you guys understand but I am sure you do. Well to the story then.
Thanks to The Angel of your Nightmares, Vala Douglas, Trigemini, Greyeyedgal14, and Queen of the scoubies for your reviews I thoroughly enjoyed all your comments. You guys are awesome!!

Introductions on the Hogwarts Express
Draco and Hermione spent the next week together and then Hermione had to go home the night before the first of September. Knowing that they would not be together, they decided to send letters at night to each other from their school dorms. Draco would write her first and then they could continue sending letters back and forth.
When Hermione went home that night, she lied in her bed thinking of what was to come. What would it be like at Hogwarts? Would she be able to pull off her sweet, innocent act? Could she handle Draco's cruelty? These thoughts made sleep difficult but finally it came and before she knew it, her mother was tapping her on the shoulder telling her it was time to be going.
Her parents reminded her repeatedly on the ride to the train station that she had to find Harry Potter on the train and make the best first impression possible. As she walked through the platform 9 ¾ Hermione's heart began to pound in her chest.
"This is it Hermione have a wonderful term darling and please remember everything that must be done." Mary said hugging her daughter goodbye. "Behave, we'll write you soon."
"And remember you and Draco are to steer clear of one another," her father added and he hugged her goodbye.
"Everything will be alright. I won't let you down I promise," Hermione said and with that she turned and headed for the train.
She found a compartment with a slightly over weight boy who was carrying around a toad and a girl reading a magazine upside down. Hermione shook her head and went straight to the window. She saw her parents and she waved to them as the train whistle blew. She looked around and saw Lucius and Narcissa in the crowd, she waved to them as well and the train began to take off down the tracks.
With so much on her mind she completely forgot that she was suppose to find Harry Potter. Then the boy who had earlier introduced himself as Neville Longbottom began frantically looking all over the compartment.
"My toad Trevor he's gone," the Neville declared.
They searched the compartment and lucky enough Hermione found it. Then realized this was her chance to find the Potter boy.
"It's not here maybe somehow he got out, let's go ask if anyone has seen him." She said slipping the toad in her purse while she was bent over looking under the seats.
Therefore, they split up and Hermione went from room to room supposedly in search of Trevor. She had seen many pictures of the boy's parents and through the years done quite a bit of reading about him and his parents. She knew just what she was looking for. Finally, her query was found close to the end of the train she found him with a red haired Weasley. She opened the compartment door.
(From the first Harry Potter movie, I cannot find my book but I know the movie by heart. I know I have no life what's new… anyway)
"Have either of you seen a toad, a boy named Neville has lost one?" she said
Both boys shook their head. She had to think quickly so she wouldn't have to leave so fast without letting him know who she was. Then she saw the Weasley boy had his wand out pointing it at his rat.
"Are you going to do magic?" she asked "Well let's see then."
The boy cleared his throat and said, "Sun shine daisy butter mellow turn this stupid fat rat yellow."
Nothing happened and Hermione could not help but sneer, "are you sure that's a real spell, well it's not a very good one is it." I've tried a few simple ones myself but they've all worked for me." she sat down in front of Harry. "For example," she pulled out her wand and said "Reparo" and in a snap, Harry's broken glasses were fixed. He took them off to exam then and she saw the scar and knew this was the perfect chance.
"Holy cricket your Harry Potter." she squeal surprising herself at how well she had pulled it off. The Potter boy only nodded.
She continued, "I'm Hermione Granger by the way and you are?" she looked over at Weasley who replied with a mouth full of cauldron cake, "Ron Weasley.
"Pleasure" she replied sarcastically and the boy gave her a dirty look. "Well you two had better get into your robes I expect we'll be arriving soon." Then she couldn't help passing up the chance to be cruel to a Weasley as she had heard so many stories from Draco about them as she almost turned the corner she turned back to Ron and said " You have dirt on your nose did you know just there." then she turned and left snickering to herself. "I cannot wait to tell Draco about this tonight," she thought he'd be sad he missed it. Then she went back to the compartment because they truly were almost at their stop.
What year is Luna in I couldn't remember and I was so into writing this because, The Angel of your Nightmares really wanted me to update today, I just didn't want have to stop and look it up in my fifth book. I really hope she is in their year or I will have to go back and change that darn it.
Well there is a great deal more to come. I decided that for each book I'm going to have a new sequel to this because Draco and Hermione change so much in each book I just think its a good idea. Like for their second year I'll write the sequel to this one and then so forth and so on. I really want to be able to get the feel of what's going on. I don't want to rush it all the way to their wedding in one story. Let me know what you guys think is that a good idea or is it more like a hell no what kina drugs are you on Jess, idea? Let me know. I'll try to write more tomorrow night but it depends with all the Christmas stuff. Until then REVIEWS!!!
