Draco and Hermione entered the barrier to the Hogwarts express together as they waved one last goodbye to their smiling parents. As soon as they were on the other side Draco hissed out. "Hopefully I won't see you around." he then boarded the train and disappeared. As if I'd want to see that evil git! She thought to herself as she too went aboard the express.
"Hermione over here!" Hermione looked around to find her caller. She spotted Ginny Weasley waving at her enthusiastically. Hermione rushed over her and gave her a great hug.
"My God Gin I barely recognized you! You look so…"
"Hot? I know!" Ginny smiled as she put her hands on her hips shaking them seductively.
Hermione gasped and lightly hit the beautiful red head playfully on the shoulder, as she smiled out, "You're so conceited!"
"Oh lay off I was only joking." Ginny laughed out.
"But really you do look great!" Hermione answered back as she looked her friend over. Ginny was about the same height as Hermione and her red hair wasn't quite as long as hers but it was close. Ginny was also nicely curved now and had legs for days.
"Well anyways I might look good, but it's nothing compared to you. Hermione you really are gorgeous!"
"Oh don't be silly Ginny, lets just go find the boys" So she and Ginny walked around until they spotted Harry and Ron already seated inside a compartment.
"Hey Hermione!" Harry smiled up at her.
"Hello Harry. Hey Ron." Hermione greeted as she and the red head took their seats. The four of them chatted about their summers until they reached the castle.
Meanwhile Draco took his seat with his fellow Slytherins. "Hey Draco. How've you been man?" Blaise asked Draco.
"Well lets see, I'm married to a prudish bookworm and I haven't been flying in about a month. How the fuckdo you think I've been?" Draco snapped out.
"Calm down mate I was just asking."
Draco let out a sigh. "Sorry. I've just been stressed out about this whole thing. I'm just glad that the whole school doesn't know. But this being Hogwarts I'm sure everyone will find out soon enough."
"How do you think everyone's going to react?" Pansy asked.
"My guess is that the Gryffindors will be pissed that my mate Draco here has got there prized girl, and the rest of the school will be shocked and confused as hell." Blaise answered. "You're probably going to have a lot of people asking you questions about it Draco."
"Well isn't that just great!" Draco said sarcastically.
"So are you going to try to get with anyone this year?" Blaise asked.
"Damn straight I am! As far as I'm concerned this isn't a real marriage." Pansy smiled to herself at his words.
"And do you think Granger will get with anybody. I mean with her being a noble Gryffindor you'd think she'd stay committed even if she doesn't want to be involved with you."
"Honestly I think she well. She hates me as much as I hate her."
"Yeah I guess that's true. Haha I wonder what everyone will think when they see you two 'cheating' on each other."
"Well I'll just have to tell them the truth. That we didn't choose this marriage. We were forced into it, and obviously we don't love each other." Draco said thoughtfully.
"Do you think that your parents will ever let you guys split? Wait can't you just split once you two turn 18?" Pansy asked with hope.
"I've already thought of that, and when I told my parents they said that if me and Hermione did split when we turn 18, that her and my parents would cut us out of their will and ruin are reputation. And I'm afraid that they have the power and influence in the wizard community to do so." Draco sighed out in anger. "I'll just have to try and change their minds. I'm sure once they see how unhappy we both are together they wouldn't possible keep us together. Plus I'm sure they want grandchildren, and I know that's not going to happen. I can't even imagine having sex with that prude."
"Are you sure about that mate? She might be a Gryffindor and a prude, but I think she'd look pretty damn good naked." Blaise said with a devilish smile. Draco looked at him shocked.
"You're joking right?" Draco asked.
"Actually no, and you know she's not the only Gryffindor I wouldn't mind having in my bed either."
"You dog who else?" Pansy asked with a smile.
"Ginny Weasley. I'm telling you that girl has turned into a little hottie."
Pansy laughed as she said, "Her brother is pretty fine to! I mean yeah he's a prat but my God he has a great body!"
"Are you fucking kidding me? Have you two lost your minds? Granger and the fucking Weasels?" Draco snapped at them. He couldn't believe what he was hearing." I mean fuck has the whole world gone mad!"
"Mate, I might not like the Gryffindors, but I do have eyes." Blaise answered as Pansy nodded with him.
"My friends are fucking nuts!" Draco said as he sat back shaking his head as he stared at the empty seat in front of him.
Blaise laughed and put his hands on Draco's shoulders and shook him gently. "Aww come on man don't be like that. You know that me and Pansy here are just a couple of horny bitches."
Draco laughed and let out a long sigh. "Whatever, you do what you want with the Gryffindors, but leave me out of it. I don't want to get involved with them."
"Well it's to late you already are involved with one of them, seeing how you're married to one and all."
Draco smiled and let out a cynical laugh, "Fuck I hate my life!"
Two hours later they were walking into the Great Hall and were soon eating the traditional Hogwarts feast. As soon as all the plaits were cleared Dumbledore went over the school rules and announcements. "…And lastly I would like to introduce you all to our new Head Boy and Girl. Mr. Draco Malfoy and Ms. Hermione Granger!" Dumbledore said as he stretched out his arms. The room was filled with whistles and claps. As the clapping had died down Dumbledore continued, "Now as you know the Heads will no longer be stationed in their old common rooms but will share a common room. So if ever you need to talking to them you can find them there. Now I am also obligated to inform you, even though I don't think it concerns any of us, of the union of our two Heads. Hermione Granger is now Hermione Malfoy!" Everybody gasped and started whispering at once.
Oh no! Hermione thought miserably to herself. Why did he have to tell them that?
Figures Draco thought bitterly to himself.
Everyone was excused to go to bed. And as everyone left, Draco and Hermione were ushered away by McGonagall who was to show them to their new living quarters. When they got there McGonagall gave them the password, Lions and Serpents, before she left.
Draco and Hermione entered quietly and looked around. The common room had a huge bay window, with a seat in it, over looking the lake. The rest of the room had big fluffy couches and chairs, along with a few tables, and a giant fireplace. There was one staircase that had a balcony like hall over looking the common room. In the middle of the hall was a bathroom in which they were to share, and at either end of the hall were two bedrooms. The one to the left had a sign that said Hermione on the door, and the one on the right had one that said Draco.
As Draco marched up the stairs to head into his room he yelled after Hermione. "I don't want to see you near my room! Got that?"
"Don't flatter yourself, I wont even look towards your room!" she then went into her own room and slammed the door behind her.
