AN: It's been too long! So sorry :( Hopefully this longer chappie will make up for my utter inadequacy. Anyways, please read and review :)

Last Chappie:
"Oh don't worry! I was simply casting a charm," she said, doing some silent spell casting. She made the extremely complicated gestures for the time turner spell and was instantly transported back in time…
Present Time:
"What charm did you cast?" Malfoy asked, confused.
"Oh just Accio, I forgot my book in my dorm," She explained. She quickly cast the spell silently and her book whizzed right past Draco's head. He did a double take and winked at her.
"I like a girl who can use good magic," He smirked. Jessica rolled her eyes. Why were boys so utterly obnoxious once they got to this age? She plastered a smile on her face and forced herself to blush.
"So, could you lead me to the Great Hall? I'm awfully hungry," She told him, trying to act as innocent and clueless as possible. She groaned inwardly and scolded herself. This was an act, she told herself.
"I'd take a pretty girl like you anywhere," He said, again with that cute wink. Wait! I didn't mean cute! I meant… erm...hideous. Yah! I would never call anything Malfoy does cute.
I shook my head to clear my thoughts and he started walking. I walked beside him and he continued to talk about all of what he knew about Hogwarts. He was telling me about Hogwarts: A History. I didn't know that he had read it! We continued to walk, me expressing my "astonishment" here and there. Of course, I had read the book more times then I had fingers and toes!
We finally reached the Great Hall and I went to sit with the Gryffindors. "Where are you going Jessica?" Draco called after me. I cursed and turned around to face him.
"Isn't this where you sit?" I asked, feigning obliviousness.
He snarled as he scanned the table and shook his head. He motioned to the Slytherin table and said, "I sit over there, you wanna sit with me and my friends?" I nodded and walked to the other side of the hall to sit with him. I looked up at the Staff table and saw McGonagall whispering to Hagrid. Hagrid smiled at me and waved. I waved back and Malfoy caught it.
"Don't wave to that oaf! He's the most clueless teacher here in Hogwarts!"
I scowled at Draco and moved to stand up. "I don't know if you're the kind of person I want to be around if you're always putting others down," I said firmly. Malfoys steely eyes softened a bit and he apologized. I hid my shock and resumed my seat. Now it was time to play Hermione. "I have to run to the loo, I'll be right back Draco," I said scampering off.
I went into the deserted front hall and cast the time spell. I only had to go back an hour this time luckily. I was transported back to my dorm and quickly snuck out. I saw myself as Jessica, talking to Malfoy. I quickly remembered that I still looked like her so I put my hair up in a ponytail and enlarged my clothes a bit. It was the best I could do at the moment. I took the alternate staircase and walked even more quickly to the Great Hall. I saw Harry and Ron and sat down beside them.
We talked rather aimlessly until Jessica walked in. Ron stopped with his fork halfway to his mouth and Harry glanced over at Ginny before sneaking a peek at the new girl.
"Bloody-"
"Ronald, no profanities over how someone looks!" I scolded.
"You're just jealous because you don't look like that," Ron said without thinking. Harry gaped at Ron and started to defend me.
"It's alright Harry, I was just about to go to the library," I said, hiding a sniffle. After everything we've been through, he can't even call me pretty. The worst thing is, that that is what I look like! But he can't see that just because it's me.
I walked out into the Great Hall and waited for Jessica/other me to come. I started to read Hogwarts a History to pass the time. Luckily I didn't have to wait long and I saw myself leaving. I quickly cast a disillusionment charm on myself and followed myself to where I pulled out the time turner. I uncast the spell when I disappeared and waited a few minutes so Malfoy thought that I really did go to the bathroom. I then walked into the Great Hall and Malfoy waved me over. He was talking to Blaise Zabini. I've honestly never talked to him so I'll reserve my judgement for now. He tried to subtly check me out as I spread jam on my toast and I saw Malfoy elbow him.
The two boys continued their talking, which mostly consisted of Quidditch and girls. I perked up slightly when Zabini said he thought Ginny was cute. Ginny would like that, she always said if something happened between her and Harry, she'd go for him. I guess he was pretty good looking himself. He's tall, has black hair, dark skin and high, prominent cheek bones. He always dressed nicely, unlike some students like Seamus, who dressed a little sloppy.
I ate my toast in silence for the rest of breakfast and quickly ran up to my dorm to grab my bag. As I was leaving my room, Draco walked in. "What are you doing here?" He questioned.
"Not that I mind," He added with a smirk.
I rolled my eyes and replied, "Headmistress McGonagall said that I could stay with Hermione until I could get sorted into a proper house. But I think I'm just going to ask her if I could stay here. She's very good company, considering I don't know anyone else."
"Well now you know me," He said winking. I decided to use his flirtatious manner against him.
"You're right, I do know you," I said, walking closer to him. I took some more steps forward and was leaning distance from kissing him. He smirked and leaned down slightly.
"See you in class Draco!" I called over my shoulder as I sauntered past him. I heard him exhale a slight groan and heard him trudge over to his room. I left the dorm with a satisfied smirk. Then I realized the problem with what I had done. If Malfoy flirts with me constantly and even tried to kiss me, that could very well complicate things! I groaned and continued on to class. I also had to remember to use my time turner and get myself to class as Hermione in time too. I hope my Jessica self doesn't freak out if she sees me! I guess we'll have to wait and see…
AN: Well, there it is! Finally another chappie. I've been more consistent with my writing so hopefully another chappie will be put up soon. Cheerio for now! :)
