Potions Class (Last Class of the Day)

HERMOINES POV

I walk into the room and Malfoy is there sitting at the table with the only spot available. I slide next to him nonchalantly.

He's here again he has been in all my classes all day… which means all year … great! Just what I need.

"Hey Granger, weird we are in all the same classes huh?" He seemed cheerful, odd.

"Yeah, seems we just can't get rid of each other," Now I basically have to spend every waking moment with him.

"Hello Class, turn to page 823 and use your partner at your table to do the potion, whoever has the best will win a good grade" Professor Snape barked.

I turned to the page I looked it was a truth potion.. I have no idea how to do this… and I am stuck with Malfoy like he will know. I look over at him and he whispers to me "I know this thankfully it's the only one I think has any value so I learned do to it really well."

"Oh great, cuz to be honest, I had no idea" I admit strangely.

"Oh its ok these are tricky," he said as he added eye of newt.

He might come in handy… he can be smart in between that ego of his.

Thirty Minutes Later

Snape went to our table and looked at our potion which I had no help in making. He looked at me then to Malfoy and announced, "Mr. Malfoy and Ms. Granger have correctly made this truth potion." He leaves our station.

"Good job Malfoy I really needed that considering he hates me and all.. it helps me a lot, maybe you will come in handy as my partner," I laughed

"What you thought I was stupid? Malfoys are one of the smartest in the wizard world," Oops that just slipped out… I better amend…

"Oops sorry I wasn't meaning that.. I knew you were kidding, I apologize, its kinda like reflex I can't stop it just comes out like word vomit"

"Oh you really are on this "turning a new leaf" thing huh? To be honest, I thought you were just kidding, but its really something you want to do." She said.

"Yeah it is. I don't like having to go under some hidden command and I want to be different… I figured its nice to be nice. Like when I helped that first year it made me feel so much better inside you know?." Look serious. Look serious. Look serious!

"I am glad, if you need help being nice you can ask me for help, unless you don't ask for help. You just want to do this on your own."

"I guess I deserved that.." She laughed it was a pleasant sound, I wanted to hear it more often then not. She is so easy to talk to.. I like being this nice person, people are nice to you back. It's a big change for me. I like it.

"Yeah, you did." She smiled. I get a smile from her too? She is soo pretty…Oh no don't go into this Draco, she is a mudblood remember? You are here to get close to Harry and convince him to go to the dark side remember? Yes I do.

"So …uh.. are Harry and Ron coming to our dorm tonight.. you know more spacious and all…. And I want to work on making it up to you all I feel kinda bad now."

She looked beside herself, but she caught herself and laughed.

"What?" How is this funny?

"I just never thought I would hear you say those words Draco Malfoy."

That makes two of us.

The bell rang and she murmured a goodbye and she left.

HERMOINE

Draco Malfoy, going good? I never thought I'd see the day. He is trying so hard. Its adorable and when I bagged on him her APOLOGIZED. The old Draco would never do that, he has really changed. For the better. Oh there's Harry and Ron.

" Hey Harry, Ron!" I greeted them.

"Hey Hermonie" they chorused

"Hey you guys want to come to my dorm later?" I ask

"Sure, why not?" said Ron

"Will Malfoy be there?" asked Harry

"Well I think so it's his room too." I said

"I don't like the idea of you sharing a room with him, it doesn't seem right." Said Ron

"Me either," said Harry, "I think there is something up, Malfoy can't just be nice."

"Did you see him with that first year?" I ask, " He was soo nice and I have every class with him and he has been nice all through them. And he apologized to ME. Call me crazy but I don't think there is anything up with Draco Malfoy. And another thing he wants to tell you sorry. He wants to make up for everything he has done in the past."

"I will believe it when I see it," said Harry.

"Yeah me too," Ron chimed in.

"Well come to the room tonight and watch the magic happen," I said with a turn and left.

HARRY POV

Hermoine is crazy, I mean Malfoy say sorry? Yeah right, he'd rather die. Than ever have to say sorry to anyone. I still believe there is something wrong with him. He cant ever be nice. Its genetic, after all we've been through now he is trying to be nice? I don't get it. I don't get it at all.

Oh there's Ginny, act casual. Thank god Ron went to class.

"Hi Harry," Ginny said with a wave and her brilliant smile.

"Hi Ginny, how is class going so far?"

"Oh great, really great I love them all."

" Oh yeah me too. I have er…. Been meaning to talk to you about that… um…. The errr.." The bell rang.

"We will talk about it later Harry I better go," she kissed my cheek and left. This left me standing there, with my hand plastered to my cheek.

RON POV

Malfoy this, Malfoy that. Will she ever stop going on about him? I can't stand him. I think she actually believes him. I don't believe it not for a second. Bloody Hell, I can't believe she believes the turning over a new leaf thing its impossible. Unbelievable. Unthinkable. Oh well, I guess since I am one of her best friends I can sway her mind.

Yeah right.

DRACO POV

Ok here is the part of my plan that will make or break me. If I screw this up. Harry will never trust me and if I cant gain his trust I am toast. Worse yet, dead. (Gulp) Hopefully I have Hermoine on my side I think she believes me. At least I hope she does.
