Disclaimer: I only own the plot and the characters that are not from Harry Potter. Oh and Hermione's Mom's real name before she went into hiding which is Rachel (Ra-shell) Andre. And special character appearance…Diana Newsense…Hermione's Aunt Patricia…and Professor Alexia!
P.S. Diana Newsense isn't a big character I just throw her in there for certain things!
P.S.S. Hermione's aunt is in a few more chapters but she isn't that big either.
A/N: I hope you like my fic and if you don't, just go read a fic you do like instead of wasting your time flaming me… As a dead guy once said, "Just walk away"
My Life: A Hermione Granger Story
By HTSP
Chapter 7
Last Time…
She closed the diary and put it back in the box and put the box in her shoulder bag. She put her robe on over her clothes seeing she didn't have time to put on her uniform and exited the compartment.
…Now…
Hermione got off the train and was led to the carriages. She got into an empty one and sat down. A few minutes later the carriage door opened and in came in two figures.
""Hello Colin." Hermione greeted.
"Oh hello Hermione!" Colin replied.
Hermione looked at the other person. It was a girl about Ginny's age and height. She had short brown hair that rested on her shoulders and piercing green eyes. She looked very sophisticated but kind. The girl looked at Hermione and noticed that she was looking at her. She nudged Colin who was cleaning his lens.
"Ow!" he whined.
She turned to him and smiled.
"Oh I am sorry! Hermione this is Diana Newsense. Diana this is Hermione Granger." Colin said and went back to cleaning his lens.
"Hello. I am Colin's girlfriend. We met over the summer." Diana said extending her hand for Hermione to shake.
Hermione smiled and shook her hand. When she pulled away she frowned.
"It's nice to meet you Diana. Colin where is Ginny?" Hermione asked.
"We broke up." Colin said not looking up from his lens.
"Oh I'm sorry to hear that." Hermione said. Colin just nodded. Diana turned to Hermione and looked her up and down then suddenly grinned.
"Your Harry Potter's friend are you not?" She asked.
"I used to be but two annoying girls broke us apart." Hermione said crossing her arms. Finally Colin looked up.
"Lavender and Parvati?" He asked.
Hermione nodded. Colin sighed sadly.
"I knew it was coming." He said.
"Who are Lavender and Parvati?" Diana asked.
"Friends of my ex-girlfriend. And they are going out with Harry and Ron." Colin replied.
Just then the carriage stopped.
"Well see you guys later!" Hermione said and exited the compartment.
"Bye!" The couple said gathering their things.
Hermione smiled. She was glad Colin was happy. She walked inside the entrance hall and put her trunk and bags with the others. She walked into the great hall to see students greeting old friends and chatting.
She looked up at the teacher table to see all of the teachers chatting merrily, even Snape was chatting with a teacher she didn't recognize.
The teacher was young, around 25; she had blond hair that rested on her shoulders and soft blue eyes. She looked like a princess from a fairy tail.
She suddenly cut off her conversation with Snape and turned and looked at Hermione. She smiled warmly at her. Hermione smiled back and then sat at the Gryffindors table near the doors. She sat for a few minutes in silence looking at her ands that sat folded on her lap until she heard a warm voice behind her.
"Hello Miss. Granger." The voice said.
Hermione turned around and saw the woman that was talking to Snape.
"Hello." Hermione said.
"I'm Professor Weglewski, call me Professor Alexia." The woman said sitting next to her on at the table.
"It's nice to meet you Professor Alexia. Are you the new Defense Against The Dark Arts teacher?" Hermione asked.
"Why yes I am. I look forward to teaching you. I hear from the other teachers that you are a very bright girl. Top in every class except potions, but Professor Snape said you are an exceptional student." Professor Alexia replied. J
ust then some more students started to fill in.
"Well I must be going up to the teachers table now. I'll see you tomorrow." Professor Alexia said standing up.
"It was nice meeting you Professor." Hermione said.
Professor Alexia smiled and walked back up to the teachers' table. Hermionelooked down at her hands and smiled. She seemed like a nice person.
Soon she noticed the tables were filled and it was almost time for the first years to be sorted. Then Professor Dumbledore stood.
"Welcome students. It is almost time for the sorting to begin but before it does I have a special surprise for you. We have two exchange students this year from Durmstrang. Boys." He said.
The door by the teacher table opened and two boys stepped in. Hermione's jaw hit the floor.
"Students this is Marcus and Nathan Smith." Dumbledore introduced.
McGonagle brought out the stool and sorting hat.
"Nathan your first." Dumbledore said.
Nate sat on the stool. McGonagle placed the sorting hat on his head.
"Hmmm clever very clever…" The hat said.
Hermione nodded in agreement he did play a prank or two on her during the summer and he was resourceful.
"Smart and loyal. Difficult very difficult. Better be…Slytherin!" The hast called.
The Slytherin table applauded. On his way to the Slytherin table Nate saw Hermione and waved to her. Hermione waved back.
"Nathan you are in your fifth year correct?" Dumbledore asked. Nate nodded.
"And Marcus you are in your seventh?" Dumbledore asked.
"Yes sir." Mark replied.
"Okay it is your turn Marcus." McGonagle said.
Marcus sat down on the stool.
"Yes loyal and brave, also patient and intelligent. Mmmm. Better be…. Gryffindor!" The hat shouted.
Hermione grinned. Marcus got off the chair and went to the Gryffindor table and sat down at the end next to Hermione. They hugged each other as people looked on in confusion.
"Herms I didn't know you were a witch!" Mark said.
"I didn't know you were a wizard. But then again neither of us asked." Hermione said.
She then turned to the rest of the table.
"People this is Mark. We're friends, he's cool. Oh and Nathan over there, we're friends too, he's cool."Hermione said.
The others nodded. Just then McGonagle left outside the doors to fetch the 1st years.
After the feast it was time to go to bed. The prefects led the first years to there dorms. When the older students were dismissed Hermione and Mark met up with Nate at the door. She hugged him too.
"So why did you guys transfer from Durmstrang?" Hermione asked.
"Because mum wanted me to go to the school she went to and Nate here wanted to go here just because he figured it was better." Mark replied.
"Oh okay. So are you both pure-bloods?" Hermione asked.
"I am, Mark is half blood." Nate said.
"Really? Well I'm muggle-born." Hermione said.
Just then Blaise Zabini walked up to them.
"C'mon Nate, you shouldn't really be talking to muggle-borns like Granger here." He said. Nate and Mark were fuming.
"Her name is Hermione and we happen to be friends, so get lost Blaise." Nate said. Blaise scoffed but walked off.
"You know Blaise Zabini?" Hermione asked. Nate turned to her a nodded.
"His younger sister goes to Durmstrang and we were friends." He replied.
"Well I got to go find someone to take me to the common rooms." He added. Hermione nodded.
Nate said good night and turned and bumped into someone and they both fell to the floor.
"Hey watch where you're…." Pansy Parkinson cried but then stopped when she saw who it was.
"Why don't you…." Nate stopped mid sentence looking up as well.
"Hi I'm Pansy Parkinson." Pansy introduced.
"Nathan Smith. I am terribly sorry about bumping into you like that." Nate said standing up and extending his hand. Pansy took it and stood up.
"No it was my fault, I'm sorry." Pansy said.
"Well I am sorry for not noticing such a beautiful creature as your self and letting you fall on the dirty floor like that." Nate said in a flirty voice.
Pansy giggled.
"Oh stop your making me blush!" She said, indeed she was blushing.
"Ah well I only speak the truth. Will you be so kind as to show me to the Slytherin common rooms?" Nate said.
Hermione and Mark who were watching this little display rolled their eyes.
"Oh why I'd love to in exchange if you walk me to classes tomorrow." Pansy said.
"It would be my honor to. So shall we be off?" Nate asked.
"We shall." Pansy said.
The to linked arms and walked off two the dungeons. Hermione rolled her eyes.
"C'mon Mark I'll take you to theGryffindor common rooms." Hermione said.
Mark nodded and the two were off to the Gryffindor common rooms.
At Malfoy Manor…
"I believe I have found her my lord." Lucius Malfoy said to the dark figure before him.
"Good, very good."
A/N: So what do ya think? I know the Mark and Nate thing showing up at Hogwarts was so random but hey it's pretty cool, right? Review people!
